Socio

“Ah, this is the good life, huh, Shannon? After all, you should know.” Shannon smiled and walked over to the sofa that Socio sat on. Sitting down next to him, she allowed Socio to pull her body close to his. Wrapped in his snuggly warm embrace, she said, "Yes, I do know. I just never thought I would know first-hand." She pulled back and studied him. His dark eyes shone sexily as he smiled a slow, seductive smile. Shannon hated to admit it but things had worked out well in the end. As pissed and as terrified as she had become for a while of Socio, he had saved her from certain death. Not only had he done that but he'd made sure that it was the doctor who would be meeting the ground floor without the benefit of an elevator, and the two agreed to claim self-defense. In court, the prosecutor had tried to insist that had they shoved the doctor toward the balcony, she still wouldn't have fallen over the railing. But Shannon's defense team, thanks to the doctor's money, was able to provide a plausible defense, claiming that Socio had no choice but to throw her over because the two of them couldn't restrain her. The doctor's son and daughter tried to fight Shannon in court over the condo and the doctor's money. Shannon didn't have a problem with them getting a good sum of money, but she fought them on the condo and won. This beautiful home with its beautiful view was hers now, even if it may always hold bad memories, like the memory of nearly being killed every time she went to enjoy the view out on the balcony. She'd gone from a burned-out apartment to a luxury condo with plenty of money in the bank and a sexy guy at her side in just a matter of months. Not bad. Not bad at all. She would never have forgiven Socio if it hadn't been for his saving her life as he had. She hated that he had gone so far as to invade her privacy and threaten her the way he had but she believed he had learned from his mistakes. She believed him when he said he would change his ways, give her breathing space when she needed it, and respect her privacy. Socio was now making better money as a bodyguard for a well-known politician and Shannon had enough money to work from home all the time. She only went out to exercise, run errands, and see friends. Socio began to spend more and more time at the condo with her and eventually, he moved in. She enjoyed sex with him a lot more than she ever had with the doctor. He was more attractive and better in bed. So now she had money, freedom, and good sex. What more could she ask for? she asked herself as she happily folded the laundry, completely unaware of the camera that watched her every move.
