Episode 2 - Lock Down (1)

Lying naked under her bed sheet, Lexie Skye sleeps. She rolls from one end of the king size bed to the other as she slowly opens her eyes. The room is dim as the sun is yet to rise. She sits up holding the sheet to her chest, she looks at the other side of the bed; it is empty. She scans her large bedroom. There are clothes scattered around on the floor from the night before.
A door opens on the side of the room where the ensuite is. The light from the bathroom is on and a silhouette of a man stands there. He walks into the room sits at the end of the bed and puts his shoes on. Lexie comes over to the man and wraps her arms around him.
“It’s so early… come back to bed Liam,” she says sultrily. Liam starts tying his shoe lace and does not turn around.
“The mayor has a press conference in two hours. I have to make sure he’s prepared,” he says.
Lexie starts to nibble on his ear. “You shouldn’t worry about what these stupid people think of the mayor… They will all be dead soon enough,” she whispers.
Liam finishes tying his shoelace, stands up ad faces Lexie. She stares at him admiringly with passion in her eyes. She leans black arching her smooth slender body still covering her chest.
“Yes, but it’s my job,” he replies. He leans forwards and strokes her cheek. Her smooth soft olive skin is warm. He pulls back and picks up his jacket from the floor. He puts it on and walks out of the room.
