Uh oh. Well this might just get awkward. Lucretia was asking about Broen and referring to him as her brother. He was definitely not that. Levina was just worried what she would think.

"Uh, no. I actually don't have any family. He's....he's my boyfriend."

Levina knew how it must have seemed, but she wasn't going to lie. Lucretia would find out one way or the other and right now being upfront was going to pay off way more than anything else.

"He has been very understanding and encouraging through all this. Really helping me through it."

Levina thought about mentioning they might be able to meet at some point, but she decided to wait. She would fill the papers out when they were handed to her without making Lucretia wait longer.

A curious eyebrow went up from Lucretia at the word boyfriend. It insinuated a lot of things Lucretia hadn't thought of and added some extra spice to the conundrum that was Levina. "Well, that's good to hear." She let out a hardy chuckle. "I hope that bomb doesn't explode any time soon." Lucretia took it that Levina would know what she was referring to. From the times they had spoken Levina made it seem like she had a deep love for her boss far beyond the professional boundary. It was no surprise that her current boyfriend would want her away or at the very least distancing herself.

"Well if you two are ever in the mood I'd be happy to put you both up at a lover's suite for a fair price. I love watching relationships flourish. It gives me a wholesome feeling." She'd watch as Levina fill out the paperwork silently for a moment pondering different ideas on what could become of this acquaintanceship.

Levina visibly paused in filling everything out as Lucretia mentioned things potentially going wrong with her and Broen. She gathered herself quickly and continued putting her information down and pulling out several of her resumes before handing it all back to Lucretia.

"I might mention it to him and see what he thinks. It might be nice to get away a little bit. His apartment is tiny."

A small chuckle came out as she thought about how small his apartment actually was. It was functional for him, but was a little crowded with how much time she was spending there.

"There. All filled out and a couple copies of my resume. I really can't emphasize how much I appreciate this."

"Oh, don't you worry girl. You'll pay me back in due time." Lucretia would say taking the paper and placing them in an empty folder on her desk. "I'm not in the business of charity personally so I fully expect you to work hard and step up when the time comes. At the very least some time here may do you some good there is no shame in being a maid." Lucretia would check her watch before getting up and walking over toward Levina.

"I'll speak to my boss and let him know about your situation. If all goes well you should be able to start next week. As for the personal assistant job that may take a bit longer. If anything comes up it won't be hard to get in contact with you." Unbuttoning her top Lucretia would pull her change of clothes closer and begin to change out of her work attire. Shame wasn't something she dawdled on much and considering Levina had seen her change before it wasn't like she was expecting any shock from her.

Levina nodded quickly and excitedly. She would absolutely do her best at any job she was given. It was just how she was, how she was...trained. Her entire life had been about seeking perfection. Working towards being perfect. If things didn't work out, it was because she wasn't good enough.

"Yes ma'am. I will give my very best at any opportunity I'm given."

It didn't take much for Levina to slip into the role at this point. The boundaries had been established, and Lucretia was clearly in charge out of the two of them. Levina was at her whim. That was what made her nervous and begin to fidget with her hands as Lucretia began undoing her top, which only subsided as she realized the woman was only changing out of work clothes.

"I can start at any point. Please don't hesitate to call me if you need something."

Lucretia gave a dismissive wave while fixing her clothes on her " Well considering I lead security here and not the general operations I won't be hounding you as much as your actual boss." Lucretia pulled her hair behind her shoulders the best she could, not really worried about appearance. "If I need you personally then I'll send someone for you...For now, just head home get some rest, and tell this boyfriend of yours the good news. Maybe have sex, that usually helps fix stress or worry."

Lucretia left her old work attire thrown on the couch before waving for Levina to move. "I'm going to go for a run so I think that'll be all for today..." She took a second to remember the last name she read. "Cromwell...Follow the girls there back downstairs and see yourself out....or stay and gamble some money who am I to judge what the unemployed do."

If Levina walked by Lucretia she would use her hand to push her along out the door before shutting it behind her. It was going to be a full moon soon and she could feel the beast rising in her with its need to be free.

Levina stood quickly and moved towards the door. Her cheeks blushed slightly at the mention of her going home and jumping Broen. It wasn't a bad idea, but the fact that it was thrown out so nonchalant, mixed with the fact that Levina still couldn't get why he hung around, took her for a whirl suddenly.

"Thank you again. I can't stress what this means to me."

She gave a genuine smile to Lucretia before being hurried out the door. Doing as told, she found a group of girls seemingly on their way out and followed them down. Once outside, she pulled her phone out, quickly typing out a message and sending before continuing on her way.
