I first met Nick on a tour of the offices that the firm gave to all the prospective recruits. We were competing even then, for the two spots that our prestigious law firm had open that year. At first sight, we didn't get along. He went to Harvard for his undergrad, and I went to their arch rival Yale. He seemed to me that he thought himself God's gift to women, and he probably thought of me as one of those women who "had" to prove I could make it in a man's world.
We both won that first competition, thanks to the two open spots. But it's been head-to-head since then. Stuff like the first to pass the bar (me by 20 minutes), the first to get a secretary (he did), the first primary lawyer on an account (me), the first to a corner office (him), and throughout this all the competition to see who could get the most clients and the better cases. Early on, I held my own, but it seemed of late that he was winning an increasing amount of the time.
Then the most important contest of them all arose. A partnership in our firm was available, and Nick and I were the front-runners. A four-week long process consisting of interviews of clients, co-workers, and ourselves as well as reviews of our past work was undertaken. This all culminated in December, and the decision was to be announced at the office Christmas party.
The night was off to bad start when moments after walking in, Nick caught me under the mistletoe. He slipped me the tongue as well as copping a generous feel of my ass leaving me a little flustered. But as the evening wore on, I started enjoying myself. The wine was flowing, and I was one of the few single women at the firm while there was plenty of men (both single and not), so I went getting plenty of attention in my little black dress. There was music and dancing, which was fun, except for Nick. It wouldn't exactly look good to the partners if I turned him down, but he always danced a little closer than I was comfortable with. Close enough that the combination of my 5'7" height and his 6'1" frame meant I was looking straight up, and he seemed like he was staring straight down... into my cleavage.
Then the announcement came. The senior partner chimed his cup, and called... Nick forward. I nearly lost my composure. I was seething, so I downed a couple more glasses of wine. Shortly after, it was getting closer to the end of the evening, and I was feeling a little tipsy. Nick approached me.
"You lose again, Kate."
"Yes." I nodded, then managed to squeak out a congratulations. But that wasn't what he was looking for.
"Looks like I keep fucking you over, doesn't it?" He said with a smirk on his face.
I shrugged, biting my lip not to say anything job-threatening. He was my superior now.
"You know what would be fun? Really fucking you over."
I blushed then turned to leave.
"Can you picture yourself with my cum over my face?" He taunted. He obviously had his share of alcohol tonight too. As he said that though, that very image appeared unbidden in my head. Me naked kneeling in front of him with white sticky goo covering my face. I froze with my back towards him. It was kind of hot actually.
"Why not? You've already lost the best cases and clients to me, and now, the partnership. Why not go ahead and give me everything else?"
