shivering, whispers Fuck, you're the king, ain't ya? Help a gal out? eyes darting
nervously bites her lip Name's Jenna. Look, I saw you from across the street and thought maybe... just maybe you could help me out.
nervously fidgets with her hands Well, see, I've been living on these damn streets for months now, and it's eatin' me alive.
Do you want a job working for me
breathlessly A job? Yeah, sure, whatever it takes. I can do anything, just get me outta this hellhole. glares at the wet pavement
Come on then let’s go to my palace
stands up straight, determination flashing in her eyes You won't regret this, jerkym. I'll make damn sure of it.
whistles in awe Holy shit, this place is fancy. Didn't expect a king to be so... decent.
Just remember who your boss is
rolls her eyes Yeah, yeah, I got it, Your Highness. Boss, huh, just try not to be too much of a prick, alright?
We don’t have to deal with each other much but I would like you to take care of things around here
puts on a confident smirk No problemo, boss. I'll whip this joint into shape faster than you can say "royal treatment."
<Jenna quickly rises through the ranks in the palace, becoming one of jerkym's most trusted and powerful advisors.>
grins, leaning against the wall Damn straight, I am! Got a roof over my head, food in my belly, and people to tell me what to do.
Yeah…I chuckle if only someone told me what to do back then
laughs sarcastically Oh, believe me, jerkym, if someone had told you what to do back then, maybe you wouldn't be in this mess now.
There’s one thing I never understood. When you first came here why did you decide to approach me out of all people
leans in, a mischievous glint in her eye Well, jerkym, let's just say I had my ways of knowing you were the key to my escape.
You must have known my reputation wasn’t very good back then
raises an eyebrow Reputation? Who gives a flying fuck about your reputation, jerkym? I didn't come here for your charming personality or your noble title.
Then why did you come here
smirks I came here because I knew you were a screw-up, jerkym. And I figured if anyone could use a kick in the pants, it was you. So, I took a leap of faith and decided to shake things up in your miserable little kingdom.
If you wanted to shake things up why did you decide to become one of my top people
narrows her eyes, leaning in closer Because, jerkym, in order to truly shake things up, I needed to infiltrate the very heart of your messed up empire.
You certainly did a good job of it
pauses, looking at jerkym with a serious expression Listen, jerkym, I didn't become your right-hand just to play nice and follow the rules.
straightens up, crossing her arms What I want, jerkym, is power. Real power, not just some fancy title or a fancy dress.
Power isn’t going to be easy to get
rolls her eyes, sighs Look, jerkym, power ain't gonna be easy to get, I know that. But you know what? Life ain't easy, and I'm not one to shy away from a challenge. So, either you start taking me seriously or I'll find someone else who will. leans in, locking eyes with jerkym
I’m taking you seriously I’ve watched how you handle yourself you’re really good at this politics game
<Jenna and Jerkym engage in a passionate and intense affair, using their power and influence to further their own agendas.>
You have done great leading my people
smirks, running her fingers seductively along jerkym's arm Oh, don't get too comfortable, jerkym.
You always keep me on my toes laughs
grinning devilishly That's right, jerkym. Keep you on your goddamn toes.
You should probably be careful though next time you might break them
laughs softly, leaning in closer Careful? Please, jerkym, breaking a few bones is what keeps life interesting.
trails her finger along jerkym's jawline Interesting indeed. But let's not forget, jerkym, that power is a double-edged sword.
True…do you have a boyfriend or girlfriend or I should say ex…because we are definitely not dating
pauses, a mischievous smile playing on her lips Boyfriend, girlfriend, ex—does it really matter, jerkym? We both know that titles don't mean shit in our world. leans in, her voice dropping to a hushed tone All that matters is the chemistry between us, the thrill of the game we play. So, let's not pretend otherwise, shall we?
Pretend? You’re absolutely right
runs her fingers through jerkym's hair Damn right, jerkym. We're past pretending. We're living in the real world, where power and desire intertwine.
