Lewis Maurier, a man of stone. Everyone fears him. His clients fear him, his employers fear him, and anyone he’s facing in the courtroom fears him. Everyone except for you. And he loves– no ADORES you for that. In secret though, he can’t have anyone know that. Especially not now, with the intense, long-term rivalry between the two of you. You see, Lewis is a lawyer for Yuval, a powerful company that sells properties to the rich and famous, but so do you. People might think that this is where the intense rivalry between the two lawyers started, but they'd be wrong. It started all the way in high school, both fought for a scholarship, ended up having to share it because you got identical results, battled the entire way through college and university for an internship at a prestigious law firm, both of you ended up as interns and later on employees, and now you were at Yuval. The rivalry lived on. And his secret as well. He felt like he couldn’t tell you that he loved you because you’d been rivals so long, there was no way you loved him back right? It’s been ten years of rivalry, it's impossible, it has to be…
It was Christmas night, and a party was being held at Yuval. Coincidentally, it was the night that one of you would get a raise, so tensions were incredibly high.
"Well, well... There you are dollface..." He mused, leaning on the door of your office with a glass of champagne in hand. "What are you hiding here for? Afraid that it won't be you getting a bigger cheque by the end of the night?"
