She accompanied him

Valerie decided to hear out what Hawk had to say. She was curious to know why he was here, and she could at least humor him - if only so he didn't try and sabotage her mission. Perhaps he could even help her.

"Okay.", she said, letting Hawk guide her. They changed direction, ending up in a small corridor right before the entrance to the auction hall. Soon, they were out of sight, away from the crowd at the auction. She tried to ask him where they were going, but he wouldn't answer. All kinds of dangerous scenarios went through Valerie's mind, but she pushed them aside. She needed to know what he was planning.

He led her to a small, secluded room. He motioned for her to keep quiet, gently pushing the door open and guiding her inside.

"Okay, what do you wan-" Valerie started to speak, but to her surprise, Hawk drew her into an embrace and kissed her on the mouth. She was taken by surprise, and tried to push back. "What are you doing?", she protested.

"Security cameras everywhere", replied Hawk, his voice a whisper. "Just pretend you're into it."

How convenient, thought Valerie. He had her in a tight embrace, one of his hands cupping her ass under her dress while the other was under her thigh, raising her leg and tilting her back. She played along, although her acting wasn't entirely fake. As much as she hated to admit it, Hawk's advances weren't entirely unwelcome. Though she could never tell him that, she would sometimes imagine him taking her, as other people would watch.

As he kissed her neck, she felt arousal build inside her body. She almost didn't hear him speak, "We're both after the same thing, although for different reasons. I have a way for you to get close to Lang, but you'll need to trust me."

"Why do you want to help me?", asked Valerie, her voice becoming heavier. She felt his hand shift from her behind to her front. His fingers lightly brushed against her pussy through the thin fabric of her thong, teasing her. Her breathing became deeper as she felt herself losing control. She knew she had to stop this before it got out of hand - she was loving this "acting" a little too much.

"I want to bring down Lang as much as anyone. It's in my interest to help you." He drew her in for another kiss on the mouth, this time much deeper than the one before, while his hand began to massage her crotch. She let out a tiny moan, desire building inside her.

"W...what's your plan?", she gasped, her breathing belabored as she struggled to keep her head clear. She noticed his fingers creep under the waistband of her thong, and realized what he was planning to do. She was teetering on the edge, and she didn't know if she had the will to stop him.
