So you might think that things got better after my trip with Brooke, but sadly this only improved things for a brief amount of time, but surely and slowly, Brooke's attitude began shifting back from a more sociable and amicable attitude towards her old self, thankfully she never got as bad as I remember her being before the trip.
And of course, that was just Brooke herself, management were more than content with leaving the lip service they gave me as just that, mere lip service, and just continued heaping praise onto Brooke.
In fact, this was an example of such a time, Brooke was sitting at the break room during lunch time with a few of her friends, I was trying not to draw their attention too much as I heated my lunch up, since even though Brooke herself had mellowed out a bit, her friends did not experience the same level of growth in character.
"So they actually gave you an office now?" One of Brooke's friends gasped in excitement, and yes, they did indeed give Brooke an office as a bonus for closing the very deal the two of us worked on.
I, of course, got nothing in return for my efforts.
"Oh yeah, it's really nice and roomy, plus the glass walls make it feel even more spacious," Brooke bragged smugly as she toyed with the salad in front of her "though I can always close the blinds if I want some privacy."
"You even got a secretary, right? Oh, what's the view like?" another of Brooke's friends asked, eager to learn more about her friend's new office.
"Not that great, it's just another building next to ours," Brooke rolled her eyes in frustration "there's even a meeting room right across from mine, just to remind me of work some more."
"How about you, Jared? Did you get a new office?" Brooke's friend turned her sights towards me, who nearly got away with heating up my food and just leaving unscathed. I tried to play it cool and shrug, implying that I didn't really give much thought to this.
"Maybe you should come and admire my new office?" Brooke gave me her best smug expression, I instantly felt the urge to fire back at her, but managed to exercise some restraint.
"Sure," I replied tersely, getting my food and calmly leaving, I had decided to let things be and try and forget the fact that I had a video of Brooke masturbating in a hotel room at my command, I certainly was never going to use it as blackmail material, but it brought me some level of satisfaction watching it when Brooke started to go back to her old ways.
But this was getting out of hand, I'd come to a decision, mainly remembering the words of the front desk girl, about how Brooke was apparently enjoying being naked in front of others and, more importantly, in front of me.
I thought it over as I ate my lunch, and decided that it was worth a shot to do an experiment.
I knew I had my chance when I got an e-mail telling me to sit in on a zoom meeting with Brooke this afternoon, I replied in confirmation, and throwing it out there that I'd attend the meeting in her office.
About fifteen minutes before the meeting was supposed to start, I made my way to Brooke's new office, meeting her new secretary Hannah, who informed me that Brooke asked her to not disturb us during the meeting's scheduled time.
I nodded and went in, Brooke saw me and gave me another smug smile.
"Jared, you're here early, come for a tour of the office?" Brooke reclined in her office chair, gesturing at the office we were in, it wasn't really all that big or that fancy, but it was definitely an office, not just a glorified broom closet or cubicle that was hastily transformed into an office.
I noticed that the blinds for the glass walls were halfway closed, I could see Hannah sitting outside them, without saying anything else, I closed the blinds completely, I looked back and saw Brooke looking equally confused and nervous.
"It's a nice office, come here and stand in the middle," I said in as authoritative voice as I could muster, and Brooke's smug smile disappeared instantly, she got up and timidly walked over to where I pointed, my nerves dissipated a touch when she obeyed me so readily.
I looked her up and down, examining her wardrobe, she had a gray suit jacket over a white button up shirt, and a matching skirt.
"Take off your skirt." I finally made my intentions clear, and I could see the wildly turbulent emotions racing across Brooke's face, a touch of embarrassment here, some panic there, even a hint of indignancy and anger.
I thought I was going to get rejected, yelled at or even just reported to HR on the spot, but after doing some mental calculus, Brooke bit her lower lip and reached down to lower the zipper at the side of her hip, letting the skirt drop to the floor.
Brooke stood in front of me, her black lacy panties on full display for me, at a loss at where to keep her hands, she finally settled to leaving them at her side, I soaked in the view in front of me, and the implication that she didn't fight me at all when I told her to strip, I decided to push even further:
"Your panties now." I nodded and egged her on further, another barrage of emotions hitting Brooke's face, but she didn't take as long to respond, she hooked her thumbs into the sides of her panties and pulled them down, exposing her clean shaven pussy lips and standing bottomless right there in the middle of her own office.
I walked up to Brooke, I distinctly remember simply watching her during our trip, I didn't lay a single finger on her, mostly due to her own demands, but I was wondering if she really didn't want me to touch her or if she was just scared and confused at the time, I brought my hand up and gently caressed the side of her leg, nothing too forceful, just to see how she'd react.
"I didn't say you could touch me..." Brooke tried to admonish me, but neither her tone nor expression gave off the impression that she was actually upset at my touch, and of course, she wasn't shying away from my hand.
"I can touch you." I replied, any nerves or hesitation gone from my voice at this point, I reached over and gave her ass a firm squeeze, I heard her gasp, and felt her shiver under my touch.
I continued groping the exposed parts of Brooke before me, my heart was beating at this newfound situation I was in, I could scarcely believe all of this.
Just as Brooke was getting into my touch, I stopped, reminding her that we still had a meeting to attend in a few minutes.
Brooke was visibly disappointed, I imagine she wanted to go even further than what she just got a taste of, she dejectedly bent over to grab her discarded clothes before I stopped her, telling her that she was not allowed to get dressed, Brooke seemed genuinely terrified at this order, but she still didn't resist, she left her panties and skirt laying there in the middle of the office as I grabbed an extra chair and sat next to Brooke, who was in charge of the laptop connecting to the meeting.
The meeting began, and we both greeted the other attendees, surprisingly, Brooke seemed relatively relaxed talking to the group despite being bottomless, and she barely reacted when I started to caress her bare thighs .
I continued teasing Brooke throughout the meeting, and as soon as Brooke was used to me touching her thighs, I ramped it up a bit, I let a finger sneak its way to the inside of her thighs and let a single finger brush against her pussy, I heard a sharp intake of air and Brooke's voice got shaky yet again.
Once more, I continued teasing Brooke until she got used to it, I had to think of something else to do, I grabbed the lowest button on her shirt and fiddled with it until it was undone, Brooke didn't react this time, and I went back to teasing her pussy for a bit before going back to work on her next button, this time, I heard Brooke's voice crack a bit when I got it undone.
