The Perfect Scandal

Chapter Five

Scratching the back of my head, I averted my gaze from the older woman. "I-um. I read, s-some of it..."

Tension climbed in the room as silence engulfed us: me with my head turned away and Mallory obviously burning holes into my scalp with her eyes.

"That's strike three, Miss Holland." Mallory stated morbidly, her voice like gravel. "You will indeed receive punishment for your dishonesty and disobedience, but first, I need your contract."

Biting my bottom lip, I risked the chance and glanced up at the woman in front of me. Her expression was practically unreadable, but I could notice the exhaustion and exasperation that lined her features, no matter how subtle they seemed.

"About that," I gulped.

Without a word, the dark haired woman walked back behind her desk, bent over (giving me a gracious view of her derrière), and opened a drawer, pulling out a set of papers and sliding them over the desk.

"Read this, now." She demanded, seating herself at her desk.

I couldn't help but notice that she had now closed her eyes, reclining back in her office chair, obviously in attempt to relax. She almost looked human.
