Allie was over the moon when she arrived at eleven thirty that morning for an interview for an Assistant Editor position for Young Publishing firm, one of the hottest up and coming small publishing houses in New York. She was even happier that she's hopefully get one foot in the door and have her passion for writing finally go into print. But first, she needed a good job to pay for the expenses that came with it. At twenty-five, her bills were starting to pile up; student loans, rent, and her miniscule office job was not making the cut. She pulled a piece of lint off of her black pencil skirt and heard a door swing open.
A handsome man in his late thirties greeted her, his dark eyes trailing up her legs. "Ms. Sanders?" He asked, extending his hand out to her.
Allison stood and shook his hand. "Yes. Are you Mr. Young?"
"Yes. Just call me Eric. Let's go into my office. Mr. Greene couldn't be present today. He had to go out of town for a few days."
"Allison nodded and pulled her bag up onto her shoulder and followed.
Eric closed the door behind them and motioned for her to have a seat.
He came around the desk and held his tie down as he took his seat and picked up a sheet of paper and a pair of glasses. He put his glasses in front of his eyes and scanned over her resume. "So you went to school for business?" He placed the glasses on the desk and looked at Allison.
"Yes, but my passion has always been writing. I've learned how publishing companies work and I feel that I may be able to put some of my business knowledge into your company."
"There will be quite a workload for someone of little experience, such as yourself. Both my partner and I will need your...assistance. Personal favors."
"I am ready to take on whatever I need to. The ad said training would be given. I am a fast learner and will work hard."
Her eyes met his as she challenged him, begging mentally for him to give her the job.
"Ms. Sanders," He said, matching her gaze with a mischievous grin. He was very sexy, even for an older man. His upper chest was tight and Allison could see he took good care of it, even through his suit jacket. "But, I don't think you understand. There is much more to your title than editing and learning the strings. Then there you may have to stay late some nights."
"That's fine, I can handle it."
"I'm sure you can. I really do want to hire you. There is something trusting about you. And trust will be needed for this position."
"Okay..." Allison was beginning to wonder where he was going with this.
"I trust that you will not run out of this office screaming when I tell you this, but, there are needs that have to be fulfilled. β my business partner β and I have needs to be taken care of. Sexual needs. You fit the type we are looking for."
Oh! Allison thought to herself. The proposal sent a delightful twitch to her belly.
"Tell you what, why don't you come back at 5:30, most off the staff is gone. Show me that you really want this. I want to see if you can handle the load," he smirked, his dark eyes gleaming with a sexy sinister look.
Allie's face flushed as she looked into her lap playing with her hands. "Um. Sure, maybe."
"Ms. Sander, you have very trusting eyes. I believe that you can keep this between us. I wouldn't want anyone to try to sabotage our company and good name if word got around. If you are uncomfortable, you just simply do not return later. I do want you to also trust Mr. Green and I.
"Is this something you do often β I mean, do you ask all you female employees to do this, and if so, do they cooperate?"
Like I've stated earlier, Allie, if you'll allow me to call you by your first name."
"That's fine," Allie nodded.
"You fit the physical type Mr. Green and I appreciate, something we learned about one another in the twenty years he and I have worked together, one would think we are the same man," Eric chuckled. "You are what we desire - young, supple, beautiful. We have very eclectic tastes in our women. So, no, we do not ask all of our employees. If you decide to accept, then you'd be the second." Eric licked his bottom lip as the words young and supple rolled off his tongue, causing a slight throbbing in Allie's groin. She shifted in her seat, sending that delicious smile to his face.
His eyes bore into hers. "Business mixing with pleasure, if you'll have it," he continued. "I will tell you more if you decide to come tonight."
Come, Allie's head rambled, as the throbbing worsened. She uncomfortably pulled at the hem of her shirt, trying to cover her knees. I bet he could make me in a heartbeat.
"Mr. Young β Eric. I will consider all that we've discussed."
"Then, there is nothing more to discuss. The position is yours regardless of your decision." Allie was being worn down with every sexually insinuating word he said. She tried to control the racing in her veins as Eric stood up and stepped to her side. Allie attempted to stand, her legs like jello from her nearly climatic conversation with him. Flustered, she clutched her bag, grateful to her legs for keeping her balanced. She kept her eyes low, avoiding his penetrating stare, she was sure she would go into a full blown orgasm if she looked at him.
They walked to the door of his office. She could sense that Eric knew what a pile of horny mush he was making her into, so he held the door and quietly said, "I hope to see you later, Ms. Sanders," before Allie walked out of his office and past the hustle and bustle of the publishing firm.
Allie walked home in deep concentration. She still had a couple hours to think about the proposition that had been unexpectedly thrown at her. She could simply just not return to the office and stay clear, but something deep in her womanly parts enticed her more into accepting the offer. Eric was an extremely handsome and successful man and she could definitely sleep with someone like him, especially someone older, with more of an experienced hand. Allison had long been tired of little boys trying to satisfy her needs. What about Mr. Green? She'd be involved with two men, a personal fantasy that she had never experienced . What if Eric or Mr. Green were married with children? She didn't see a wedding band on Eric, but who wore them anymore? And wasn't this considered prostitution? She couldn't be known as a whore and a home wrecker. Allie had already physically admitted back in his office that she was a little excited about her extra advantages that came with the job description. She had been lonely and needing some other forms of 'enjoyment' in her life besides writing; she'd been in a sexual drought since moving out on her own. Plus, maybe the experience would be good for her creativity; the most enjoyable part of what she wrote were the steamy sex scenes between her characters.
"Ah, fuck it," Allie said aloud as she stopped in front of Starbucks for a cup of coffee. It was a done deal. He brain and her body made her decision.
Allie grabbed her coffee from the barista and practically ran the rest of the way to her studio apartment. She removed her skirt and blouse, hanging them until she was to put them on again and wrapped her hair in a bun before hopping into the shower. She squeezed shower gel into her hands and lathered herself. Her hands had a familiar touch to them; what would Eric's hand feel like all over her body? She closed her eyes and could see him, unable to help herself from being caught up in a fantasy. Her hands traveled over her mound and began exploring, sending desirous impulses through her lower regions. Her body begged for her to continue, but Allie stopped, deciding to wait for whatever may happen with Eric. Allie continued to shower, and went over any stubble on her body with a razor and rinsed her body off. Pulling back the shower, she examined her nude body in the full length mirror to make sure there were no unsightly blemishes. Feeling confident, Allie moisturized and put on the most expensive matching lacy undergarments she owned. Thank you, Fredrick's of Hollywood, she thought, as she dressed in her suit once more.
Allie returned to the office building at five thirty sharp. The nerves twisted in her body as the elevators doors and she opened and stepped through the glass doors of Young Publishing, unaware of what to expect.
The office was almost empty except for the few employees who were finishing up the day's work.
"You've returned," said a whisper behind her. Allie turned, meeting eyes with Eric.
Something tugged at her insides; eagerness, curiosity perhaps? "Yes."
Eric's lips curled upright in a small smile. "You don't know how glad that makes me. My office?"
"Will the others be gone soon?"
"Soon. They are just about to go for the evening."
"They won't think anything?"
"Just that I am taking our new assistant to dinner to celebrate her new position."
There it was again. Eric's play on the word position. " Now, come into my office.
