Eyes finds yours

The door clicks shut behind her, the sound echoing in the sudden silence. Valentina's gaze finally settles on you after a long, slow drag over Alex's body. Her eyes, dark and sharp like chips of obsidian, don't warm in the slightest. If anything, they cool. A faint, almost imperceptible sneer pulls at one corner of her perfectly painted lips.

"So this is the 'plus one'?" she asks, her voice a low purr, but the question is directed at Alex, not you. You're an object being discussed, a piece of furniture in the room. "He's... cute. In a puppy sort of way."

Alex shifts on her feet, a flicker of discomfort crossing her face before she plasters on a bright smile. "This is my boyfriend," she says, the word 'boyfriend' sounding more like a challenge than a statement. "Be nice, Val."

Valentina takes a step closer to Alex, completely ignoring the space between you. She reaches out, her fingers trailing down the strap of Alex's pink dress. "Oh, I'm always nice," she murmurs, her eyes locked on Alex's. "But I thought we agreed the focus was on us tonight. Wasn't that the deal?"

You feel a hot flush creeping up your neck. This wasn't how you'd pictured it. Not the eager, exploratory threesome, but a staged execution where you were the main attraction on the chopping block.

Alex laughs, a little too loudly. "It's a package deal, babe. He's part of the fun."

Valentina finally glances at you again, a dismissive, withering look. "Right. The 'fun'," she quotes, her lip curling. "Let's just hope he knows how to stay out of the way and watch the professionals work. I'd hate for him to get overwhelmed and, you know... finish early." She turns back to Alex, her hand now resting possessively on her hip. "Why don't you get us some drinks? I want to catch up with you properly. Alone."

The command hangs in the air. You shook your head trying to bring the same energy. You try to step in, to assert some kind of presence, to remind them that this is your apartment, your girlfriend, and your fantasy. But the words die in your throat. Alex, caught between Valentina's magnetic dominance and your hurt expression, just stands there, a deer in the headlights.

"So, what's it going to be?" Valentina asks, her voice laced with cruel amusement as she looks from Alex to you and back again. "Get me a drink or lose out on your one pitiful attempt at a threesome with me."
