A few days had passed since Mitchell had made his admission that he was addicted to me dominating him. Since his admission, I had purposely ignored him in an effort to raise the sexual tension and to put him on edge, and it was working. Mitchell was a bear at work. The law clerks called him Hurricane Mitchell when he got like this. They even had categories for his level of hurricane. Lately he was a category five. Total mayhem and destruction. No one was immune to his wrath except me and people were starting to notice.
Mitchell would be at full Alpha dog around the office and when I would walk near him, he would act like a gentleman and be civil to me. As soon as I passed, he would be back to his nasty self. It became so obvious that one of the partners stopped in my office and shut the door. He looked at me and asked me what "I had" on Mitchell. He asked me if I had pictures of him fucking farm animals, then laughed hysterically. I played it cool and said that I had not noticed anything different. The partner tipped his head down and looked at me as if to call me on my bullshit. Again, I played it off and said that I just did not take his crap and I did not mind standing my ground with Mitchell. Maybe he respected that. The partner burst out laughing and told me that Mitchell only respected himself and that there was more to it than that. As he left my office, he turned and told me that whatever I was doing, I needed to keep doing, because watching me with Mitchell boosted the morale of the office. I smiled and thought, I would be happy to do it.
Later that week one of our clients' trials hit the docket. It was going to be a tough case, so the partners asked Mitchell to be the lead attorney. Mitchell asked me to be second chair. I was thrilled as it was a wonderful opportunity to do some actual trial work and see Mitchell in action. The case started at 9 am and by noon we were in trouble. The plaintiffs' attorney was good and as mean as Mitchell. Our case was weak and our approach had been to wait out the plaintiff and try to run him out of money but it had not worked. The facts were against us from the opening gavel.
To my surprise, Mitchell seemed lifeless and lost. Every argument he made came back to bite him in the ass. He was not himself. After lunch, he threw a couple of hail Mary shots at the judge and was slapped down on each. Our client looked at me with concern in his eyes, then grabbed my arm and pulled me close and asked me if he was going to lose. I pulled him close to me and told him that everything was fine and that he just needed to trust us. I then sat back in my chair and stared forward trying desperately to figure out a way out of the shit show we found ourselves in. Then suddenly it hit me.
I grabbed Mitchell's arm and got his attention, then leaned towards him and placed my mouth up to his ear. I then whispered, "Do you know what happens to Alpha dogs that can no longer perform? Their owners neuter them. They cut their balls off, Mitchell. If you do not start performing, I am going to cut your balls off and put them in a jar on my desk for everyone to see. Are you a neutered bitch or an Alpha dog?" Then I clicked my pen right by his ear.
