"Very nice," Ms. Warren said, looking over the candidate. "There aren't many Asian women around here who are busty with an exotic, golden brown tan. I'm certain my clients will love that combination."
Jade Chang smiled with pride. She had always been self-conscious about her curves and shape; especially in this high-end area of Los Angeles, where skinny blondes were the standard bearers. Now those curves seemed to be working in her favor, helping her land this part-time job to pay for engineering grad school expenses.
They were both sitting in the downtown clothing store. It was 9 am so the place hadn't opened yet. They sat inside the store with the lights off; the bright sunlight from outside was more than enough.
"I'm pleased to hear that," Jade said happily. "I have some experience in modeling, so I'm fine using my assets in a reasonable manner."
"Yes, I saw that in your resume. What I'm asking is much different than modeling for car shows."
"I understand. As you can see, I also worked part-time in retail when I was in college. I know how things work-- I can run the cash register, or anything relating to a client's needs."
Ms. Warren's eyes narrowed, focusing on Jade. "This is a very different game. My clients are mostly successful men who have, shall we say, exquisite taste in both fancy clothing and beautiful women. It comes together in one package here. That's why my business thrives. And that's why I'm willing to pay so generously."
Suddenly, Jade tensed. She had an idea of what Ms. Warren was implying.
"I'm familiar with your store policy," Jade replied.
"And?"
"I'm interested in pursuing the job."
Ms. Warren gave a slow nod. "Tell me, Jade. What's an intelligent, beautiful, young, engineering student doing in a place like this? Don't get me wrong. I think you have a perfect look and my clients would love you. But I need reassurances for a job this risque."
She knew this was coming. Her answer had already been rehearsed.
"To be honest, I know a lot of tech executives come here, and I've heard that I'm able to introduce myself this way."
Ms. Warren raised an eyebrow. "Networking? I like that. Yes, I allow my employees to socialize with clients, but only during appropriate hours. If you're on duty, then I expect your full attention. Is that understood?"
"Of course, yes. I understand."
"Good. Now, what else have you heard regarding duties?"
"Nothing specific," Jade replied. "I know I'll have to help with stocking items and operating the cash register. I have experience helping clients find the appropriate attire they need, and I've also done fitting prep before sending items to be tailored. As for the specifics... I've heard that it varies."
"Are you okay with that? I assign different duties to employees based on their skill set." She waited for Jade's nod of ascension. "So, Jade, tell me what your skills are."
The suggestive tone in Ms. Warren's voice made Jade feel small.
"I... I'm not sure," Jade stammered. "What options are available?"
"I guess we'll have to find out. Are you okay with a deeper interview and trial period? I like where this is going. You certainly have a lot of potential."
"I'd love to continue."
Ms. Warren nodded. "Good. Now stand for me. Remove your clothes too."
It was a sudden shock and Jade's body jerked in surprise. She knew this job interview was going to be unconventional, but this? Naturally, her eyes veered towards the window.
"People can see us outside."
"Not really," Ms. Warren replied. "At this hour, the sun's glare makes it difficult for anyone to see inside, that's why the lights are off. But then again, people might see if they look closely enough, which means you'll have to be fast."
Jade's eyes widened. She knew better than to ask again. She stood. Her eyes glanced at the window while a few office workers and tourists walked down the street, minding their own business, completely oblivious to what was going on behind this storefront window.
She only hesitated for a second before proceeding to remove her shoes, then she took off her fitted black blazer, which she folded neatly and placed on the chair next to her.
Ms. Warren nodded. "Good. Being obedient is a requirement for this job. No questions asked. You will be expected to do things and you will need to deliver without a fuss."
Jade's fingers worked frantically, rolling up her dress from the bottom. In one quick movement, she pulled everything off until she was in her undergarments.
"Keep going," Ms. Warren said. "I don't have all day. Take your bra and panties off. I need to get a good look at you and I still have questions to ask."
Uncertain, Jade still obeyed. She needed this job. She removed her undergarments to expose her body completely. Her skin was evenly bronze and her figure was voluptuous. Her dark nipples turned hard from the exposure, and she wished she had shaved this morning, as she had a little dark patch between her legs.
Ms. Warren's eyes looked up and down, the same way a building inspector would carefully examine safety regulations. Her eyes revealed nothing. This was all business.
"Very nice," Ms. Warren said with a poker face. "Like I said, my clients would love you. We've never had an Asian employee here before. Variety is the spice of life, isn't it?"
Jade held her head high. "Yes it is. Diversity is a good thing, in my opinion."
"Ms. Chang, do you do anal?"
Jade's butt cheeks involuntary clenched. "Not really."
"Are you good at giving blowjobs?"
Ironically, the lewd question made Jade gulp audibly. This was the kind of question asked in private between lovers or best friends. Not during a job interview. Nonetheless, she knew what she was getting into, and she was already naked.
"I'd like to think I'm excellent at it," Jade replied. "I've only ever had compliments and I do enjoy it very much."
"How many men have you blown? In your entire life."
"Six."
"How many at the same time?" Ms. Warren asked nonchalantly.
Was that really a serious question? Jade wondered.
"I've never gone beyond one at a time."
