    The high-rise building stood tall and luminescent in the darkness. Constructed in the heart of New York City, it was surrounded by other concrete towers that unrivaled the size of the law firm that was famously known as Alistair & King. It was as if the architecture of the building itself symbolized the large staff of powerful lawyers that diligently worked demanding schedules, hidden away in their glass boxed offices, day in, and day out. A beautiful brunette sat at her desk that Friday evening, barricaded in her tiny corner office. On the polished glass door read a name: Rachel Rose Junior Associate The professional environment that had been bustling with lawyers, scrambling from office to office, was now empty and quiet.

Of course Rachel had confronted him about these scandalous rumors as soon as she’d heard them, and just as she had hoped, he had denied the allegations. Yet as the months passed, Rachel noticed that their relationship was slowly slipping into troubled waters. Casey was spending more time at work and less time with her, and whenever they were together, he was moody or too tired to be intimate with her in bed.
