Guilty Pt 01 03

1 - Addison

I love my job, but you sure as hell need to have tough skin to work here.

I've never wanted to be the boss and carry too much responsibility but, I strived to be somebody's damn good assistant one day.

Landing this job has been a huge accomplishment. Being a paralegal fulfilled my goals and ambition but, what they didn't mention to you in your post secondary golden years was how much people in this industry can be total assholes.

Not to mention - completely full of themselves.

Sometimes I catch myself daydreaming of how easy life used to be in college. No worries besides needing to hand in some papers on time but at least I got to party once in a while and let my reckless side out more often than not.

Now, it feels like I focus on nothing more than doing my job to the best I can and making money to be able to afford my bills in this damn city.

I haven't been in this firm for very long so I do feel like I still have something to prove and that's why I am pushing myself to focus on work so much.

I have to be honest with you, your girl could use a break.

A good night out where I don't have to worry about my job and being somewhere new.

I am not a city grown woman, I come from a small town and even throughout college went to a smaller known area although, that was even a big change.

Landing this position made me move into the city fast after my placement at a different firm. I feel like I had to leave everything behind to grasp this opportunity so, a lot of the times when I get moments alone to myself I love fantasising about leaving my new worries behind. Wash down a couple glasses of my favourite wine to catch the courage to hunker down a sexy stranger for the night and feel my stress leave my body through a tingling orgasm.

Maybe I am really putting too much work on my mind because even focusing on the idea of having an orgasm for a split second instead of my pro bono case I need to get done, those few words got me more hot and bothered than I've been in a month.

This case is one that I think I will remember forever. It is going to be my last forceful pro bono case which means, if I win I'll get a massive party thrown for me as well as a promotion because I have not lost one yet since I have been here.

Not only am I excited for this because it is a big deal, I am also the youngest female lawyer to do this at this firm.

Yes, maybe this all is causing me to be a little more stressed than usual and it may be the reason why a lot of my coworkers are huge d-bags at the time but, I am also being so hard on myself to continue a standard and keep myself humbled.

This case has been progressively easy to take care of so far and it isn't a hard one for me to win. My only issue is that my client is a child and I have had no face to face contact with the father who is to be getting full custody. Due to his incarceration.

All of the communication has been done through the system workers and my coworker who is working on her fathers case.

Situations like this are sticky. My client, Ruby who I will be representing has been placed in legal custody of child services due to dependency issues.

Her mothers parental rights were terminated at an early time and are not in the picture at all anymore. As I mentioned earlier, her father is incarcerated.

This doesn't leave me feeling great about leaving this little girl in his hands but, it may be better than going through the system.

I do know some insight into his case through my coworker and best friend, Natali. She got me this pro bono so we could work alongside one another and make sure everything is done correctly for the family.

Natali has told me that her client has been charged with gang related incidents that he vehemently denies.

Just like anyone would in his position.

On a good note, the charges have been dismissed. Ruby's father is scheduled for release the day before her court case which he is expected to show up at in three days.

I have until then to finalise my negotiation with the district attorney for custody to be changed back to the father and for them to give adequate time for him to get his accommodations back up and running.

In court, I'm also trying for him to be compensated for wrongful imprisonment although, I'm not sure if I'll be able to get that far.

Natali and I are meeting up at my place after work for us to celebrate the closing of her case and for her to give me some "liquid courage" to push my hardest for mine.

Although, I cannot drink too much tonight because I have my meeting with the district attorney in the morning and the rest of the day to put the case together.

I usually like to give myself the last day before court to just relax and destress (if time permits).

As I finished up my confirmation email for tomorrow morning, I sent Natali a message saying that I'll meet her at my place in an hour. I usually wait for her on the bottom floor since she is a couple floors above me (big shot) in the building but, today I want to head home.

I need to shower and clean up to feel comfy with my glass of red.

I grab the rest of my things and tuck my jacket under my arm since it is pretty warm out now. As I start my walk toward the elevator I notice one of the lawyers from Natalis floor walking straight toward me, fixing his professionally dry cleaned navy blue jacket suit.

"All eyes on you this week Ms. go-getter Parker." He says walking closer to me, his eyes looking down at my body.

"Just call me Addison, and well, I guess they are. Not just everyone around here sets new industry standards." I say as he stops in front of me to chat. "What was your name again? Jack?"

"It's Jake but to you," he rests his pointer finger under my chin and slides it off when I look him in the eyes. "it's, Mr. Wright. Until you level up to a floor that isn't still in its teenage years, you'll always call me by that name."

Classic lawyer jab that only bothers people that are obsessed with their work image.

As Mr. "right" turns away to keep walking past me an urge comes over me to need to know what he is even doing down here.

"What makes a successful man like yourself come down here? From your floor I think they would call that 'cradle robbing' going off of your previous reference."

Shocked by my response, "oh Ms. Parker, your jokes are all fun and games but I am actually here to meet with this gentleman about one of his upcoming meetings." He says sticking his hand behind me to where the elevators are.

I turn around and to my disbelief, the district attorney is coming out of the elevator.

Confused and slightly angry, I turn back to Jake who now has a grin on his face.

"I shall see you some other time Addison. Oh and good luck on your upcoming pro bono. Hopefully nothing tarnishes your good standing with anyone important." He pats my shoulder and turns, guiding the district attorney towards a meeting room as they begin banter.

On my way home and in my shower, all I could think of was random ways that mr right could seriously fuck up my case.

He could change the mind of the district attorney to not give Ruby's dad custody and then I lose my case completely.

Why?

Why would he want to do something like that... it isn't like I am taking his job away from him if I get promoted?

He must just be stupidly insecure to be so messed up by a woman setting a new record in his firm where he didn't set anything.

Men are absolutely ridiculous.

I get out of the shower and throw a robe on.

Stepping out of the bathroom, I almost run into someone as my heart jumps and I just about kill my only friend in this city.

"You sure do have some harsh feelings against Jake Wright" Natali says as she's holding a glass of wine up.

Shit, I must've been saying all those things aloud.

"You can also put away your karate chop hands, I don't know if those would do much to an actual intruder anyways."

"You dumb bitch. Thank you for the wine and why, yes I do have harsh feelings about that prick" I grab the wine and take a massive swig as if wine was never meant for sipping.

"I only heard a little bit of your rant but I do agree that he is massively insecure about women. We aren't turning tonight into any shit storm though because it is supposed to be a happy night. I'm getting paid and you're about to get a promotion!" Natali started her little happy dance with her wine above her head, hips swaying back and forth as she walked toward the couch to sit down.

"As I was leaving work he was meeting with the district attorney who I am supposed to be meeting with tomorrow to settle my negotiations. Jake specifically said how he hopes nothing tarnished my reputation with anyone important while he went in with the district attorney that he knows i'm meeting with."

I sit my ass down with a big sigh and another sip of wine

.

"I would throw on some lovely music for us to chill and hang out to but I don't have money for a surround sound or speaker. Best I can do is watch a movie because I am still logged into my ex's account from years ago."

Natali lets out a good laugh.

"I'm good with a random movie in the background." She says smiling and looking over at me. "You know, other people still have meetings with the district attorney. He probably has a couple cases going on at once. Although I don't keep up to date with anything that Jake does, I'm sure he just wanted to throw you off your game and he was meeting with him for work purposes only."

She is actually making a great point and through my stress I never really put two and two together to even think he was on a case.

I'm assuming that is why he was looking his best.

"Honestly, I don't know what I would do without you here right now because you're totally right. I will not let my game be thrown off by a man."

Natali held her wine glass up and we cheers for that.

"That's my girl. A man so insecure that if he does hook up with a woman, he probably won't let her finish on purpose even if she was faking it." We let out a good laugh together and started to enjoy our night.

This is what I love about Natali, we can cheer each other up and she also has the same sense of humour and crudeness to her as I do.

I'm waiting for those nights we get to share our sex stories together because those will be something else.

"I had a great night Dee, thank you for having me over to celebrate my win. Next thing you know, you'll be on the 26th with me making mad bank and you can get out of this shit box of a rental condo."

"Hey now, it is a beautiful closet that I love to live in and am so grateful for." I say as I twirl around praising my tiny apartment. "Other than the casual diss, thank you for coming and I look forward to being able to party with you when I win on Friday."

"Yes Ma'am! Not going to lie, on a side note I think you need to get seriously railed by someone soon or you might become a little angry. Looking forward to a party but you should get out soon by yourself and have some fun." She trails her hand across my shoulder as she heads for the door. "Love you though, have a great night."

We get a good hug in and I lock up before heading straight to bed.

Wine sure is my best friend.

When I have a little too much I get horny as all hell and an obvious great time and on the other hand when I have too little, it puts me right to sleep perfectly.

Although Natali left me thinking of a good night out by myself, I couldn't help but fall right asleep when I got into bed.

2 - Addison

Although I don't like to be wrong most of the time, in situations like this I am so happy that Natali was right in regards to Jake's meeting with the district attorney.

Well mostly right.

I think he could tell that I was more nervous than I should've been as soon as I walked into the room to sit down with him.

"Good morning Ms. Parker, you have put together a hell of a Case here for this young girl. I assure you some happiness after this meeting, are you not excited to listen to what I have to offer you?"

It took me a second to realise that he complimented my files and then another second to also wipe the worried eyebrows off of my face.

"I am so sorry Mr. DeLaine. In all honesty, I am actually beyond excited to hear what you have to say. Hopefully by the sounds of it, I will be getting what I asked for."

He smiled as I got comfortable and grabbed a seat, folding my hands in front of me on the table waiting for him to continue.

As I watched him slide a folder towards me and gesture to open it, my heart started to pound a little harder knowing I have everything I need to win my Case.

"I have to admit to you Ms. Parker, your work is persistent with someone who has been in this industry a lot longer than I know you have. This is everything you asked for and I wish you the best in court on Friday."

He looked at his watch and tapped it a couple of times to dismiss the notification he must have received, and looked back up at me.

"I would offer advice to take these two days to get everything sorted the way you would like it presented in front of the judge" he shook his head, "but I believe that you have done that already. I am sorry to have to cut this meeting short Ms. Parker but, I have had something pop up. I don't think you will have any problems with my paperwork but, if you find that you do, I will answer your call at any time."

I assured him that cutting the meeting short was no problem and we both made our way towards the door.

As he opened it for me, he stated something that I don't think I will ever forget.

"I look forward to working with you in the future here Ms. Parker. I can truly see you running this firm with your name splattered on the walls." At that exact moment, Jake Wright was walking by with Natali towards my cubicle. "And that is exactly what I told that young man when he tried to manipulate me to think otherwise yesterday."

When I tell you my jaw probably hit the floor, I am not exaggerating. DeLaine didn't even hesitate and left, walking straight toward the elevators to leave.

When I got back to my cubicle, Natali was swivelling in my chair with her hands in the air and no sign of Mr right.

I unloaded on Natali the events of the meeting and had us go through the more than perfect paperwork that DeLaine handed me.

Now we are sitting here together very over excited and as crazy as it may sound since it is only one in the afternoon, extremely exhausted.

"This is a big deal for you Dee." Natali says as she leans back in her chair and looks around the room. "This may be the last week you ever have to sit in or see these cubbies."

"I'm sure you meant to say 'luxury lawyer offices', but I'll let it slide."

We shared a laugh and I started to feel a little overwhelmed by my role until Natali jumped in as she saw my facial expression change.

"Now Dee, don't start getting too full of yourself. I know playing an innocent small town girl around the big dogs gets you a lot of attention but, next thing you know they might just splatter your name across the walls" she laughs and I can't help but also let out a sigh.

"Natali, it's all fun and games until I'm your boss too." She stopped laughing and gave me a side eye and a smirk. "Hey what was Jake even saying to you when you guys were walking this way anyways? He didn't seem to stick around too long."

"I cannot stand that guy honestly, he is lucky he is where he is in this company. Being a beefy privileged white man with rich parents really gets you in places you do not belong."

She took a short breath, looked over at me and stood up replicating the way Jake stands as his shoulders are too big for his figure. She leans down toward me, lowering her voice like a jock to mock him, "You know Natali, if I were top partner with the firm I would have you up there beside me. Someone with your looks can win any case in a courtroom and that is valuable. Why do you wait around here for this underdog anyway? She won't make it as far as you and I."

I sit back and roll my eyes snickering at her impression of him. Just as I think she is done with her performance, she switches characters grabbing my hands rushing to sit back in her chair and staring at me with her doe eyes.

"Oh Jakey, thank you so much. I never would've been able to make it to the top without you. I think I need you to carry me the rest of the way... oh what's that?"

She holds her hand up to her ear, cupping it and then faces back up at me, "oh I'm sorry Jake, is the twenty thousand dollars more than you I make a month a little too heavy? Maybe you should also stick around for Dee to come over after her successful meeting with the attorney you failed to turn against her. Maybe she could sooth your back aching pain with her soon to be promotion you have never received."

"You totally did not say that to him, you lying bitch." I let out a huge laugh and looked back at her blank facial expression.

"Dee I've won more Cases than he can count on his fingers in the last two months. I didn't even know he tried to manipulate DeLaine, I was just lying and he didn't even question it. I'm not scared to hurt a white man's feelings. Anyways, that explains why he wasn't here when you showed up a couple minutes later."

I just stare at her in awe. I have never really had someone able and willing to stick up for me and herself that much in one sitting.

We sat in silence for a bit as I thought about the upcoming events and how much excitement I get from this job that overcomes the amount of anxiety I also receive.

"I think I'm going to head home and put my Case in order for Friday so I can take tomorrow off for myself. Did you want to come and drink at my place after?" Natali stands up ready to go.

"As much as I love you, every night this city is ready to party and I am going to take advantage of that. I degraded Jake too much today for me not to want to go out and do it to more desperate men looking for some fun. It's like a high you know? Now I have to chase it into the dark and steamy night." She struts away fluttering her fingers in the air saying bye to me.

I will never be as much of a bad bitch as her. If I didn't have this Case in the back of my mind, I would join her just to go out and learn her ways to experience this dark, mysterious side of Natali.

Friday, that is what I can look forward to on Friday maybe.

~~

As I finalised putting the last papers into my folders and set them aside on the coffee table, this glass of wine is hitting all the right places for sending me into relaxation.

I lean back on the couch I got with this lame apartment and think about how Natali is probably dressed to impress right now, getting ready to have the night of her week.

I can't believe how many men actually like to be so degraded and used by women and you would never really know, judging by what the men looked like.

I mean sometimes you can, I can visualise someone who I would think to be into something like that but also, it could be your regular Joe Schmo or gym jock Jake.

You never really know who could be into what, there are so many different kinks out there.

I have never really experimented too much into kink culture, I like a good hair pull and throat grab every now and then. Just like every other girl but past that, I haven't put much thought into it.

Maybe some rope play... get tied up and hung so I'm in the perfect position and height to get fucked over and over for however long that man could last.

I come back to reality in my living room and go for another sip but my glass is empty.

I guess I didn't realise I kept drinking while I was daydreaming about being pounded into oblivion.

As I stand up to go fill my wine glass again, I feel my silks stuck to my pussy. I am so wet. Okay then, either I just realised I do have a kink or I have drank a little too much wine tonight.
