So what? Christine was spoken for. She knew it and Jenna knew it. For the first time, she allowed herself to think about how it would feel to be in Jules’ shoes, what it would do to her trust, her self-worth, her heart, if she knew the person she loved was being intimate with somebody else and hiding it from her. If that other person was somebody she knew, somebody who smiled and said hello and pretended to be a friend, all the while knowing full well she was stabbing her in the back. Jenna’s stomach churned and she tasted bile in the back of her throat.
But after what she just witnessed, the whole bit about secrecy began to make sense. It never once occurred to Jenna that she wasn’t the only one in the office Christine bedded or intended to bed, and the scope of her naïveté was suddenly, acutely embarrassing. She wasn’t sixteen. She was a grown woman. A grown woman who should have known better. Now, as she flopped back down into her chair, Jenna wondered which of them was the bigger cliché—her for banging her boss or Christine for banging her secretary.
But her eyes were ice blue, such a light shade that they almost seemed clear, at times nearly transparent. When Christine Davis looked directly at you, she could make you squirm purely because of the color of her eyes. But it wasn’t really her physical appearance that entranced Jenna. It was her poise. Her confidence. The certainty that she would get whatever she wanted whenever she wanted it. Jenna imagined that there wasn’t a lot in life Christine Davis longed for, and she’d found herself attracted to her from almost the minute she was hired over a year ago.
