My loyal reader. I am not abandoning 'The Poker Game' story. I was inspired to create this side story created from the same world. If this is the first story of mine you are reading, it would be a good idea to read my other story to better understand Stephanie, Ben, and their relationship. Should you read this first, because it is awesome... swears, the timelines are interchangeable. 'The Poker Game' will explain the backstory, but this story should still work on its own.
If you have read 'The Poker Game', you may find this one is a bit darker. The characters outright take advantage of someone. That person is not choosing to be in the position they are in. I get how wrong that it in real life. Stephanie's inner slut would tell you she deserves it and the ends justify the means so suck it up and read it or don't read it. I, however, believe we should present the idea a little more delicate.
The object of Stephanie's ire here is Tina. She is based off a person I consider a close friend in my personal life. Names were changed to protect me from getting fired. We work together, she is more of a sister to me than even a coworker. I do not hate her or have her in my spank-bank of fantasies. She has amazing breasts and knows it. The reality is, she broke my trust getting myself and another very close friend/coworker in a lot of trouble when she shared private information with the wrong person. I have spent a year trying to forgive her. I try to push it down and get over it. The trust is gone, and her sweet and godly ways have proven time and again to be nothing but a faΓ§ade. Lessons are learned, the truth is out there, grain of salt, water is still wet, sky is still blue, life goes on. Our relationship is currently nothing more than polite members of the same team.
I wrote this as some therapy in trying to get myself past the hurt I felt when my trust was broken. It is wrong in all ways known to humanity to take advantage of another this way, I know that. I do not want to hurt or abuse her in real life. There is no physical violence here, just manipulation. I cannot even go far as to say it is a fantasy, other than that it is fantasy. When a jackass cuts you off on the road, you may internally wish that the jackass gets into an accident. If you thought logically, you would realize never really want wish harm as much as just wish they would be taught a lesson. But man, you know you would love to watch it bite them in the ass... This is that...
It is strangely therapeutic for me to give her to Stephanie for training. Trust me, don't fuck with Stephanie.
And with that I give you, Pet's Pets...

"Wait... she did what?" Stephanie is stunned by what she just learned.
"Whatever you said to Tina... she took straight to Michael and told him." Ben is obviously bothered to be in this position, and obviously bothered the information he shared with his trusted cohort has now come full circle to the one person it should have never been shared with. The results were devastating. Michael went straight to Ben and asked if he was being let go, because he had heard the rumors. It was never going to save his job, that part was done. They could have done without the embarrassment. This was not how they planned to start the day.
Stephanie and Tina have been working friends for years. Stephanie has always kept Tina in the dark about her most secrets because everyone knows that Tina is a chatty little talks-a-lot who cannot possibly keep her big fucking mouth closed. She has been known to complain about Michael too, so their issues were shared on this topic commonly. They were in the break room refilling their morning coffee when Michael walked thru, late as usual. His back was to the two girls standing at the sink cleaning his mug. Like all women, both are highly versed in language of silent communication.
First, Tina rolled her eyes. Stephanie responded with shocked eyes and a head shake, no. Tina tilted her head to the side, rolled her eyes back as she stuck out his tongue, simulating being hung. Stephanie looked up in the air as if, 'I am not saying...'. The entire communication taking about 6 seconds, the story was communicated without saying a single word.
Stephanie learned that day that even closer work friends will happily turn on you when the story is juicy enough. Her heart broke instantly the second she realized the damage her mistake had caused. She made Big Daddy look bad. Regardless to their personal agreement, that is something she can get fired for.
"I am so, so, sorry, Big Daddy. I cannot tell you what I will do to fix this, but I promise you.... I will fix this. I cannot believe that chatty bitch said something to him, but I know it was wrong for me to say anything at all. I will make that up to you on my own, I promise. But trust me, that mouthy bitch will pay."
Michael was not released that day as originally planned. There were a day and a half of emergency meetings before it happened. Tina's efforts did not save him as much as delay the fall of the guillotine. On the Friday of that same week, Stephanie saw an opportunity for an opening on her boss's schedule, so she knocked on his open door gently. "Sir, do you have a second?"
"Of course, Stephanie, come on in. What's up?" He continued to finish typing his thought as she closed and locked his office door before sitting and waiting patiently for his focus.
"So, the Tina situation." After a pause that seemed like forever.
He looks over waiting for the second half of the whatever-the-fuck she is interrupting him for. "What is the Tina situation?" Turning back to his monitor, he continues to type.
"Sir, I think I found a way to get her back." She sits to the edge of the chair opposing his desk, legs crossed at the ankles underneath.
Still typing. "Look. I get she crossed the line, and I am pissed about it too, but we cannot overreact. I love your looking to defend us, but revenge? It is not exactly our thing. We cannot really get her back." He was multitasking fully now. He was having a conversation, but he was also typing. She pondered how he was able to do the two things at the same time.
"Ok, then let me say it differently. I think I found out a way to get her back without repercussions." Ok, so she has his attention again, so he stops what he is doing and looks over. She has a devilish grin on her face.
