Enemies With Benefits

"I see…," Dr Sullivan nodded in understanding. "In other words, you want to win him over, and get him to be loyal to you for life, Right?"

"Have you ever heard of friends with benefits before?"

"Quite often." Dr Sullivan wondered where she was going with the question.

"Good. I bet you have never heard of enemies with benefits. Am I right?" She raised an eyebrow, waiting for his response.

"Not before today," admitted Dr Sullivan.

"Can I tell you something then, Brad?" She wore the first glove in her left hand. "Not all enemies are doomed for destruction when you finally have the advantage over them."

"There are those that, through their evil intentions, help you accomplish your goals without realizing it; these are the ones you can safely call "enemies with benefits."
