Chapter One: Ms. Stark Will See You Now
You look one more time at the email on your phone, reading the message yet again. "Come to 27 Seaview, Suite C at 8:30 sharp. Business attire. Bring a copy of your resume and references." Well, suite C, here you are. A pretty woman at the reception desk asks you to have a seat in the lobby as she calls Ms. Stark. Her desk has a name plate, Ms. Elise. You make a mental note to greet her by name when you have a chance. She has warm, café au lait skin with a splash of freckles across her face, and a beautiful mass of curly dark hair pulled into a loose braid. She also has, you can't help but notice, a generous amount of cleavage showing from under her bright white blouse.
You start playing absent-mindedly with your tie, shifting in your chair, chiding yourself for lack of control. Ms. Elise, still on the phone, looks up and smiles at you with her soft pink lips. You self consciously stop moving. You've waited weeks for this interview. You're kind of nervous. This job is an important one, and you'll do anything to get it.
You look again at the name on the door. Silver letters: Ms. Inara Stark, founder, Crescent Publishing. Unusual name. She'll be your direct supervisor. She described herself as patient and fair, but really hands-on. That could be good. When you're new, you need a little direction, a little guidance.
How much time went by? You want to look at your watch, but you don't want to seem impatient. You imagine Ms. Stark disapproving. What does she look like? You realize now you've never even talked to her on the phone, just arranged everything by email.
While you wait, you look around the reception area. It is tastefully decorated and gives you a few clues about the woman who is going to be directly over you. It's different than other offices you've been in. The walls are a dark lavender, and there are actual curtains on the windows. Deep plum colored curtains. Someone even thought to put shades over the typical industrial fluorescent lights - or replace them. What little artificial light there was in the lobby was filtered through golden mica shades. Ms Stark does not have cheap tastes.
The couch you're sitting on, it's real leather. Deep burgundy - feels like money. As you wait, you notice more and more details. The room is slightly warm, and smells faintly of rich, spicy perfume. Or incense. This is not the sort of place for reports, audits, and pie charts. What kind of business does Stark run here?
"Hello?" Ms. Elise calls to you, "Ms. Stark will see you now." She gets up from her chair and walks to the office door to let you into the inner sanctum. Your eyes follow her legs, widening as you realize she's wearing seamed stockings and a very snug skirt. Yes, it was pretty warm in here. You can't help yourself - you find yourself wondering what she is wearing at the top of those stockings. You notice just the first faint tingling of arousal and feel incredibly embarrassed. You're about to meet Ms. Stark and you're eyeing her assistant's legs? What the hell is wrong with you? Oh god, what if you start to get hard? You degenerate, you think. What are you, some horny frat boy?
You swallow hard and try to tell yourself to get a grip. She leaves you alone in the office - at least you think you're alone. You look around, expecting a desk and all the usual machinery of a business. That is not what you see. There are arm chairs, carpets, more antique-looking lamps. Bookcases. You see a few titles - Golden Mysteries: Erotic Representation in Ancient Rome, and Kink, BC: Bondage in the Prehistoric World.
"Like what you see?" A voice like the caress of a silk glove touches you. You turn around and see her on the sofa, tablet in one hand, black cigarette in another. You take a deep breath and stammer a hello to the woman you want to be working for more than anything.
Ms. Stark is luxurious, long-legged and voluptuous, like an old painting. She has pale creamy skin, a flawless complexion unburdened by heavy makeup. Her lips, though, are painted a deep maroon, curved in a smile. Her eyes are deep green, holding you still, looking over lowered glasses. Her hair is a deep, deep shade of burgundy, cut close and styled perfectly. She is complete and self-possessed, leaning back slightly. She puts her tablet down on the coffee table in front of her and spreads her arms over the back of the sofa, letting you take her in.
This is the woman you've been looking for. This is the powerhouse behind Crescent Publishing.
Her legs are crossed, which has opened the slit on her black skirt that reveals the edge of a black garter, and the tiny swell of generous flesh pinched slightly by elastic. Her shoes are black, high heels, a strap on each directing the eye to the curve from shin to instep on each foot. Your eyes travel up, around the curve of her hips, to her silk blouse, several buttons open to reveal soft, creamy cleavage. The silk fabric shines in the lamplight, clearly showing the straps and lace on her bra underneath, and each perky nipple. You're not sure you can hide your distraction any more, but you'll try.
"Hello, I'm Ms. Stark. It's nice to meet you..." She holds out a hand for you to shake, never leaving her seat. "Come here, sit beside me, and I'll go over the details for you. You know, we were very interested in your resume. Your qualifications would make you a really good fit. We're a small operation. My assistant and I work so closely together. But profits were so good this year, we decided we needed a man around the house, so to speak..."
You nod along as she talks, slowly growing intoxicated at her voice and her perfume. As beautiful as she is, her voice is what gets you. Soon, you are hanging on her every word. You need to hear more. You are taken with a sudden desire to hear her give you orders. Soon, you will have your chance...
"So that about wraps it up for the job description. Let's have a look at your resume again." You hand over your resume, fumbling your way though a reply and a weak joke. She smiles at you patiently, leaning forward to grind out her cigarette in a crystal holder on the coffee table. Will you measure up?
You start to fidget in your seat, trying to hide the all too apparent start of your hard-on. She throws a quick glance over her glasses and you immediately stop and hold still, waiting on her. She takes her time reading your resume, evaluating this summary of who you are and what you've done until now. Can you do what it takes to satisfy her? Can you do a good job?
You steal glances at her body while she reads - her relaxed and open position speaks power. She doesn't have to fold up into a corner like other women. She can be free with her body, needing nothing from anyone. Except service. A woman like this needs to be worshiped. You bite your lips, watching her arch her back slightly, thrusting her breasts outwards a little, and you think, you will do whatever it takes to please her.
Chapter Two: In need of a firm hand
"Ok, I am sufficiently impressed with your work history. You clearly know how to bring passion and dedication to your position. You've always gone the extra mile to do a good job, and, based on one or two of these more modest positions, you have the ambition necessary to serve."
"Now," she sighs, uncrossing her legs and standing up, "let's see how you fit in here. Leave your papers and follow me. She turns and walks towards a closet door. Almost completely under her spell, you have no choice but to follow her swaying hips and the click-click of her heels. Her ass is broad and round, and you can't help but imagine how it would look bare, with only those black garters over her ivory flesh...or how her skin would gleam if you rubbed it with expensive oils...and Ms. Stark turning around to look down at you on your knees, those green eyes, that voice telling you what a good boy you have been...
You're sweating now, clenching your jaw and biting you lips hard, desperate to keep control. It was no use. You would do anything she said. She had to know. She stood in the closet, more of a tiny room, her back to you, letting you stew in your own desire, staring at her perfect, voluptuous body.
