It's Halloween today. Dominique is helping me get ready.

"How come you didn't get me a leprechaun?" I ask as she does my makeup.

"The store was out," she says. I'm wearing a skirt and a blouse. The blouse has the top buttons unbuttoned, so you can see lots of my cleavage.

"Do you really think a blouse, a skirt and a mask is a costume?" I ask.

"Hell yes. You look sexy," she says. "Your hair and makeup are done. I'll go get your shoes and mask."

I look in the mirror. I have dark eyeliner and mascara that makes my green eyes stand out. I frown as I look in the mirror and see how low cut the blouse is.

Dominique comes back with dark red stilettos. I slip them on. She hands me a dark mask.

"You better get some," Dominique says.

"Hopefully," I say. "You workin' tonight?"

"Yeah, Halloween is one of the biggest nights of the year," she says. "I make a shitload of money."

"That's good. I have to go," I say. Dominique grins.

"Bye, Ade," she says. "Oh, my costume is a leprechaun."

I shake my head, grinning as I walk out. My mind drifts to Dimitri as I'm on the bus. And then I remember Lincoln.

I never thought that I was going to see him again, I really did. It was better if I never saw him, a cleaner break.

But he's here and he still affects me. I keep thinking about being in Dimitri's kitchen and being near Lincoln. I still have the same reaction to him, my pulse races and he knew it. Lincoln knows. He knows me better than anyone and he knows that I'm Adelaide.

I sigh and shake my head as I get off the bus.

I slip on my mask as I walk in and follow someone in front of me. I have no idea where the party is. I'm led to a surprisingly big room.

It's dimly light, strings of lights across the ceiling. It's pretty packed. There's a bar and lots of people drinking. I walk slowly through the room, trying to find someone I recognize.

Most people are wearing some version of mild costumes. There's loud music, but most people aren't dancing, just talking. I sigh and look around. Something brushes my waist. I turn around and see Dimitri.

"What's your costume supposed to be?" I ask, smiling. He's just wearing a dress shirt and slacks.

Dimitri leans closer to me. "Christian Grey," he says. I start laughing.

"Man, that's perfect," I say.

"What's perfect?" Noah asks as he walks over.

"Dimitri's dressed as Christian Grey," I tell him. Noah frowns.

"Damn! I thought I was original," he says. "Shit, there's Connor. I'll talk to you guys later."

Noah walks away and Dimitri looks at me."I like your mask," he says.

"Thanks." I look around. The room is getting too crowded.

"What do you think of the party?" he asks.

I shrug. "Parties aren't really my thing."

Dimitri looks around. "Then why'd you come?"

"Because you invited me," I say, biting my lip. Damn, Dominique must be rubbing off on me.

"Well, since it's Halloween, we could go back to my office and watch horror movies," he says.

I grin. "You're such a pussy. Hell House LLC scared the shit out of you," I say. He shakes his head. "That sounds good though."

Dimitri smiles. He leads me to the elevators. "You have any movies that you want to watch?" he asks. I shrug. We get off the elevator and walk to his office. Everything's dark.

I grab his arm. "Do you see that shadow?"

"You're not funny, Kincaid," he says. I grin as we walk into his office.

"You gonna turn the lights on?" I ask.

He shrugs. "It's scarier to watch a movie in the dark."

He opens his laptop and dim light fills the room. I take off my mask and set it down with my bag.

"Are your heels comfortable?" Dimitri asks.

"I guess," I say. "Heels usually aren't super comfortable."

"Then why do you wear them?" He walks closer to me.

I know I shouldn't say what I'm about to say, but I really want something to happen with Dimitri.

"Because they look sexy," I say.

Dimitri's so close, barely an inch away. I step closer to him and press my hands to his chest. His eyes darken and his heart races under my touch. He leans closer to me and his hands find my waist.

His eyes search mine and then his lips crash over mine. Dimitri kisses me roughly and I press closer to him, returning the kiss. His tongue finds mine and I moan. I slide my hands to his neck and his grip tightens.

Fuck, this feels good.

I slip my hands under his shirt and he backs me up until I hit his desk. I sit back on it and wrap my legs around his waist. I start to unbutton his shirt and he takes it off. Damn, he's hot.

His hands skim my thighs and hips. He unbuttons my blouse and pushes it off my shoulders.

"Fuck," he moans quietly when he sees my lacy red bra. He kisses me harder and I rub against him. I can feel his growing erection. His hand slips between my legs and his finger brushes my panties.

Dimitri pulls away. "Are you sure you want this?" he asks. I move against his hand.

"I'm sure, Dimitri," I say. And then he kisses me. He pulls my skimpy, red lacy panties slowly down my legs and slips them off. He leaves my skirt and my heels.

I rub my hands over his back and abs. Fuck, he feels so good. I kiss him deeper and gasp into his mouth when his finger brushes my wet heat.

He slips two fingers inside me and grunts in satisfaction. "Fuck, you're so tight," he murmurs.

His thumb presses on my clit and I moan as his fingers pump me. My orgasm starts building. I unbutton Dimitri's pants and unzip them.

"Fuck," he draws out. He pulls away from me and I hear the crinkle of a packet. Dimitri slides a condom on. "You're sure?"

"Yes."

I moan loudly as he slides inside me. His eyes search mine. "You're okay?" he asks.

"Fucking perfect," I say. My eyes flutter shut as he pulls out and thrusts. He keeps his face in the crook of my neck as he slides in and out of me. I curse as I get closer to coming. "Shit, go harder."

He obliges and starts thrusting harder and faster. I move my hips with his. He keeps going harder and faster and his thumb presses on my clit. I'm so close to being pushed over the edge. His hand slips inside my bra and rolls my nipple between his fingers.

"Harder," I cry out. His finger pinches my nipple and he thrusts harder and deeper, which pushes me over the edge. I moan loudly as I come. His mouth covers mine and he kisses me roughly. His movements get jerkier and then he stills, finding his release.

He pulls away and smiles.

"Oh, fuck that was good," he says, panting slightly. I nod.

"Yeah," I say. "It really was."
