Summary
Johnny strained for the faintly crackling feeling of awareness he'd gotten used to, looked for those tiny shifts of head, hands, stance—but nothing doing. Henry's attention was fully on the matinee idol and the idol's on him, murmuring in their own closed circle, while Johnny watched them like a stray through a cafe window.
Okay, so, this was new. He'd gotten on top of every knuckleball Henry had thrown him so far. You just had to watch, and then you'd see. Nobody ever said it was always going to be a goddamn delight.

Summary
Gerri’s accustomed to being in charge. It’s her baseline, her touchstone. It’s comfortable, and comforting.
She’s heard of people whose dominance at work makes them want to submit in their off-hours. High-powered CEOs who pay high-class escorts to whip scars onto their skin, but only the parts that a well-tailored suit will cover. That’s not Gerri; never has been.
She likes power. She needs power. And if power thrills her just as much in the bedroom as it does in the boardroom, well, why should anyone judge her for what she does when she’s off the clock?
Why should she judge herself, for that matter?
