The Unwanted Gifts

Alec Davidson was determined in business, and good at his chosen profession: photography. He controlled his world, and those who were allowed within it passionately, until 16 days ago. Then Freya had stumbled into it. She had entered almost as an afterthought. She had gone from casual acquaintance to the epicentre of everything that had happened, and everyone that had been invited since that first evening. She had reawakened his interest in all the things that he had hidden from the world so determinedly, and led him to question himself and those with whom he associated. He had been forced to recalibrate his views on life and his profession, because of the proximity of her feminine charms and her sexual and carnal desires. How had this begun? Where would it all end? He was usually in control of all aspects of his life, but at present he was being undermined by her inquisitive nature and wish to experiment in all the things she had not yet experienced.
