Third Person:
She had always imagined it would grow more difficult over time, as she added lie on top of lie and continued to deceive him. That was how it was supposed to be, wasn't it? Lying to a person you'd once loved. But, as it turned out, it was the opposite. Every lie, every breath only brought her further from being able to see him as that person. Every ounce of dirt she'd dug up on Lex had only further convinced her that the man she had loved had never existed. He was an illusion created by her mind to fool herself into finding someone other than Clark that she could put her faith in.

And look where it got her.

When Lex walked into the bedroom -- their bedroom, she actually found it in her to smile fondly, turning to glance back at him over her shoulder while she sat at the vanity. He looked worn, though she couldn't blame him. If she'd gone three days without so much as looking at her bedroom while toiling away on some secret government liaison, she'd probably be beside herself with exhaustion, too. Particularly if she had to expend as much energy as he did hiding said project from her spouse. The bitterness welled up inside of her all over again, but it just fueled the smile. Helped it look more genuine.

She'd find her retribution, but it wouldn't be in this bedroom. Not tonight. And the longer she kept holding that smile, the more dragged out and soul-wrenching the revenge would be when she did finally take it. Especially when he realized from within that prison cell that in this moment, while she was letting him put his hands on her and lean in to kiss her neck, that she'd always known. About 33.1, about Model 503. About Ares. And while he sat there in his ten by ten cell, he could realize that he hadn't just met his equal in what he'd made of Lana Luthor. He'd allowed her to grow to be far beyond him.

Reaching up, she took his hand from her shoulder so she could kiss the back of it and glance up at him through half-lidded eyes.

"You're late," she remarked in a sly way, her lips curled in gentle amusement that masked all of the loathing that had twisted her into something ugly underneath the soft, tanned skin that characterized her mostly innocuous appearance. La femme Nikita had used that to her advantage as well. "I didn't realize I'd only have you on timeshare when I said 'I do.'" Of course, there were a lot of things she hadn't realized when she said 'I do.' Like the fact that there was no child growing inside of her.

"Believe me, Lana, if I could be here with you instead, you know it's precisely where I'd be. But, we're nearing a breakthrough and I want to be there when it happens. This project's very important to me." A pause. "To us." Her smile grew a little wider at that, though it staunchly contrasted how she actually felt. The more he isolated himself the more she realized she'd never been allowed in to begin with.

APPROVED
