Professor Grayson's Favorite sin Chapter 155: Marcus Hale
The man who sat across from Kessler was around sixty. He had the specific composed quality of someone who had been in rooms where power was exercised for a long time and had absorbed the manner of it, the deliberate stillness, the unhurried placement of the folder on the table, the specific patience of a man who believed he was about to close something.He set the folder on the table. He said nothing immediately. He looked at Kessler.Lennon was ten feet away. He lowered his phone.Damien was at the edge of the lobby. He had come in through the side entrance without being seen. He crossed to Lennon's position in four steps. He stopped beside him. He looked at the man."Who is that," Lennon said, quiet.Damien said: "Marcus Hale."Lennon went very still.He looked at the man who had been behind a year of everything, the board votes and the PI firms and the criminal referral and the fabricated timeline and the shot in the garden and he looked at him the way you looked at something that
Professor Grayson's Favorite sin Chapter 154: Tell Me
Kessler called at nine PM."I know who has your files," he said, before Lennon had said hello.Lennon was standing at the window. He looked at Damien."Tell me," Lennon said."The deletion was commissioned by a man named Pryor," Kessler said. "He is in my party. He has been in my party for nine years. He is connected to Hale through a fundraising vehicle I was not aware Hale had involvement in." A pause. "He used my name without my knowledge to establish the credibility of Hale's position in the party. I found this out two hours ago." Another pause. "I want to help. But you need to understand what helping me means.""Tell me what it means," Lennon said."I go public," Kessler said. "Not a private statement. Not a legal filing through Roman's contacts. I hold a press conference. I name Hale, I name Pryor, I name the fundraising vehicle and everything I know about it." He paused. "I have been in this party for thirty years. I know where things are. I know what they did and I know how
Professor Grayson's Favorite sin Chapter 153: We Are Coming
Roman had the fabrication traced in two hours.He called from wherever he had been working — the apartment, the office, somewhere with good wifi. He called Damien's phone and put it on speaker in the penthouse kitchen."The document is from a fabrication service called Meridian Document Solutions," he said. "They specialize in corporate forgeries for litigation. They have been used by Hale's legal team twice before." He paused. "The paper stock, the aging, the ink composition, all consistent with the supposed date. It is professional work." He paused again. "It is also traceable. I have the payment chain. I have the commission date. I can prove it was created six weeks ago.""Can you prove it in time for Friday," Damien said.A pause."That is the question," Roman said. "I can prove it exists. I can prove it was commissioned. Presenting that proof in a form the board of governors will accept formally, with standing, not just as a document I produced requires filing with an investiga
Professor Grayson's Favorite sin Chapter 152: He Has Them
The penthouse was quiet after Hargrove left.Damien sat at the island. Lennon sat across from him. He waited."Say it," Lennon said."The credential," Damien said. "Not the job, the license." He looked at his hands. "Permanent.""I heard him," Lennon said."That is different from the firing," Damien said. "The firing was reversible. The appeal was reversible. This…" He paused. "This is the thing that ends the profession."Lennon was quiet for a long moment. He looked at the island. He looked at the city through the window. He thought about New York and Columbia and the plan and all of it.He thought about three days."We have what we need," Lennon said.Damien looked at him."Roman has the document. We have Kessler's file. We have the payment chain, the authorization, the third investor who does not know he was defrauded." He held Damien's gaze. "Hale filed this morning because he knows we have it. He is trying to land the permanent blow before we use what we have." He paused. "So we
Professor Grayson's Favorite sin Chapter 151: Tomorrow
Hargrove called at noon.He called Lennon's phone, not Damien's, which was how Lennon knew something had changed. In a year of everything, Hargrove had never called him directly."I need to speak to both of you," Hargrove said. "Together, today. Something has been filed this morning that you need to hear from me before it reaches you another way."They were at the penthouse by one. Hargrove arrived at one-fifteen. He looked older than he had at the last meeting, not physically, the specific kind of older that came from carrying something heavy for a long time. He sat at the island. He put a folder on the surface."Marcus Hale filed a complaint this morning with the board of governors," he said. "Not the conduct board. Not the academic review. The board of governors." He looked at the folder. "This is above me. I have no authority over the board of governors process. I cannot intercept it, slow it, or modify it in any way.""What did he file," Damien said.Hargrove opened the folder
Professor Grayson's Favorite sin Chapter 150: Thinking
Roman explained the document in the car on the way back to the penthouse.All of them together, Lennon and Damien in the back, Kessler in the front passenger seat, Roman driving. Evelyn and Archer had taken a separate car."The agreement," Roman said, "establishes Hale's position in the deal at thirty-eight percent. He disclosed eleven percent to the third investor." He looked at the road. "The difference represents a significant sum. The third investor funded the deal under the assumption of an eleven percent partner. He was actually funding a thirty-eight percent partner who took his share and left the investor with the full exposure when the deal failed.""He defrauded him," Lennon said."Yes," Roman said."And the document proves it.""The document proves it completely." He paused. "The third investor is still alive. He is in his seventies. He has believed for fifteen years that the deal simply failed." He paused. "He did not lose evenly. He lost entirely while Hale walked awa
Professor Grayson's Favorite sin Chapter 21: Under The Table.
Under the TableThe smell flooded Lennon’s senses and made his stomach growl loud enough to echo in the quiet penthouse. He’d been staring at Damien move gloriously in that kitchen, focused and at ease. Lennon was okay with just staring. He didn’t know shit about cooking; he could barely boil w
Professor Grayson's Favorite sin Chapter 20: Goner
GonerThe drive to Damien’s place was quiet. Not awkward or weird. Just… heavy. Like the air between them was holding its breath.Damien’s hand rested on Lennon’s lap and stayed there. It remained, warm and steady. Grounding Lennon. His thumb stroking lazy circles over the seam of Lennon’s jeans.
Professor Grayson's Favorite sin Chapter 19: Eyes On Me
Eyes on MeDamien didn’t give Lennon time to think. He hauled him up and spun him, dropping him ass-first on the desk. Papers scattered. Damien couldn’t care less.Lennon’s legs fell open automatically, shorts riding high, cock straining visibly against the damp cotton.Damien shoved between his th
Professor Grayson's Favorite sin Chapter 18: What I'm About To Do
What I’m About to Do to youThe kiss turned heated. One second it was slow and careful like they were still testing the lines. The next, Lennon made a small, desperate sound against Damien’s mouth and everything ignited.Lennon’s hand fisted tighter in Damien’s shirt; Damien’s grip on Lennon’s waist
