Lilah stood in her office and looked around. Starting tomorrow, she would have a new office and a new position within the firm. When Wes had came up with the idea of taking on the Senior Partners, she'd balked at it, thinking it wouldn't work. They did have the information to do it but so many people had tried before and ended up dead on the White Room floor. Even though Lilah liked power, she liked her life even more.

After they had all the information they needed, they went to battle the same things so many had feared before. It was tough, and a lot of it hurt, but by the end of the day they had won. Wolfram and Hart was there's for the taking. When morning came again, they would be in control and they would be the ones deciding who stayed and who went. And Lilah was looking forward to every moment of it.

Wes left the firm shortly after they'd gotten the Senior Partners locked away. Lilah stayed behind to finish everything up in the legal department. A small part of her knew she was taking a risk with trusting Wesley with all of this. Just months ago he was Angel's lapdog and, even though he had came to her side, she felt there was still a small chance he'd go back to his former friend. But, she also knew she needed to trust him, which was something Lilah didn't do too often.

Finishing up the last document, she turned off her laptop and made her way out of the building - their building. Her first thought was to go home, but then she thought of Wesley. They'd done this together and should celebrate together. She stopped by an all-night spirits store and purchased a bottle of expensive vodka and a bottle of expensive wine. They deserved it.

When she got to his apartment, Lilah let herself in. Closing the door behind her, she furrowed her brow when she heard a female's voice coming from the bedroom. Had he gone out and picked up some random female to fuck in celebration? Even though they weren't exclusive, it still pissed her off. He rather be with someone he didn't know than with her.

Moving closer to the door, she prepared to storm into the bedroom but stopped when she saw who it was. It was Fred. Curiosity got the best of Lilah and she stood completely still as Fred told Wesley about killing her old professor. Like most employees of Angel Investigations, Lilah had a file on Fred, and knew Siedel had been her mentor.

She continued to listen as her eyes roamed over Fred's nude body. The other woman had killed in revenge and had hurt one of the other members of Angel's crew. A grin spread as Lilah watched Wes pound into the other woman as they discussed what to do to Gunn. It would seem the little Texan wasn't as innocent as everyone thought.

Maybe they needed to invite her to the firm too.

Lilah continued to watch them, thinking how erotic it was to see her lover screwing someone else. She could feel herself start to throb, especially when Fred screamed out...that she loved him? Lilah smirked at that. Ah, so this was the woman Wes had been pining for. Maybe he hadn't told her straight out but a woman knew when the man they were screwing was thinking about someone else.

Taking a step back, Lilah pondered leaving the two lovebirds alone when Wes suddenly acknowledged her. "I didn't want to barge in on the love fest," she said, strolling in. She watched as Fred scrambled to pull a blanket over her. "I've already seen it all. Don't be so modest. You just sleep with someone while someone else was watching."

Fred released the blanket and laid back as Lilah looked her over again. A little skinny but she was still beautiful. Their eyes connected for a moment and Lilah saw something in Fred's eyes that was familiar. It was the same look for darkness she'd seen from Wesley when she'd first started coming to his apartment. And it made her giddy. One more person she was going to pull away from Angel.

"Let me guess," Lilah said as she started to remove her clothes, "Angel kicked you out too?"

"How did you know?" Fred asked as she watched the other woman undress, her tongue darting over her lips.

"I just know these things," she answered as she glanced over at Wes. Lilah then slid into bed and laid next to Fred. "And did Wes tell you what we did?"

"He did and offered me a job at the firm," Fred said.

Lilah perked an eyebrow and looked at Wes again. "Does all of this mean I'm no longer needed in your bed, lover?" she asked as she moved a finger over Fred's stomach. "I can see why you've been pining for her - dark and beautiful." It was a rarity for Lilah to speak so highly of another woman but there was just something about Fred that she liked and was attracted to. "You two can be in love all you want. Hell, get married and have a houseful of kids. I don't care."

She looked at Wesley again as her hand moved further up and moved over Fred's breasts. "I do get to play still, don't I?" She pinched one of Fred's nipples and smiled when the other woman loudly groaned. "Or what you rather I not touch your girlfriend?" she asked as she looked over at Wesley, her fingers still toying with Fred's nipple.
