When I returned to the office, I found Melissa working on a case regarding the CFO of a mid-size grain company who was suspected of embezzling company pension funds.
"Have you got a minute?" I asked her. She pulled back her medium length brown hair, and took off her glasses. She managed to look beautiful with or without them, and I was jealous of that.
"Certainly," she replied. "What's up?" I filled her in on the details of Laughlin's situation.
"God, that sounds terrible," she said. "What do you think is going on?"
"Hard to say," I said. "But I believe he was sincere. The question is, do we want to get involved. There's risk..."
"Yeah, we'd need to make it very clear that our services only include finding his wife and daughter - not to include this mysterious Boss character. Laughlin said he was like Fu Manchu, the Chinese super villain from the movies?" she asked. "Also, I'd suggest something else," Melissa said.
"Laughlin never made it clear that the guy was Chinese, or Asian," I said. "I'd just as soon we don't start out thinking he is, or we might miss an entire line of investigation if it turns out he isn't. Plus, it would certainly be racist to assume he's 'like Fu Manchu' until we get proof. So, what's the 'something else' you mentioned?" I asked.
"We'd need to make it clear that we would not be 'rescuing,' or 'freeing,' or any other action that stated or implied that we were moving the wife and daughter - what were their names?"
"Audrey, the wife, and Sara, the daughter," I said.
"-that we were moving Audrey and Sara from wherever they are. That could open us up to kidnaping charges if this were a voluntary situation, as with cults. They're both adults, and have the right to go wherever they damn well please."
"Good thought," I said. "But, goodness...to go from being 'boring hetero' to 'lesbian porn stars' in apparently a week or so..."
Melissa shrugged. "This is probably a boring, straightforward, 'find the missing person' case, we just need to be careful. But the timing is perfect for us, we were running into some cash flow issues. We still haven't been paid by the Ecuadorean government on that Felipe Sanchez thing."
"Not to mention the 'behind the scenes' work we did exposing Jeffery Epstein. Okay, I'll start some inquiries," I said, "and get a written agreement from Laughlin. Otherwise, I'm headed home. Michael is making dinner."
"Nice," Melissa said. "Neither Arthur or Cliff are that talented...at least culinarily. But I am taking Cliff to my Mom's for dinner this weekend."
Melissa's mother was a federal judge, but also a great cook, and still in her mid-forties.
"Lucky you," I said.

"Hi, I'm home," I announced.
"Hey, babe," Michael said, sauntering out of the kitchen, a small spot of some red sauce on his shirt. Michael was my longtime boyfriend. We'd talked about marriage, and I was sure it was in our future, but I was in no rush to get there. He kissed me lingeringly, and I could feel myself wetting. After the filth and degradation of the Laughlin videos, somebody normal and sexy was a welcome relief.
I spoke generally of my day, leaving out the identity and character of our new client, and the seamy nature of the evidence.
"Abducted, or wife left and took the kid?" he said, clarifying the issue immensely. Although neither of those scenarios would come close to explaining the videos. I decided to put the case out of my mind for the evening, and just enjoy my time with Michael - it's not like I got that much time alone with him.
After Michael's spaghetti, we cuddled and watched TV, sipping on Chianti, and then moved to the bedroom.
Michael watched as I slipped out of my skirt and blouse, leaving me in bra and panties.
"God, I love your body, baby," he said. I looked back over my shoulder at him, my long blonde hair falling sexily across my back.
"Really?" I said, innocently.
"Oh god, yes," he said, rising from the bed to take me in his arms from behind, and nuzzling my neck. I could feel his hard on pressing into my ass, and giggled.
"It seems as though something has come between us," I cooed, as my hand went to the slit in his boxer shorts, my fingers wrapping around the hot, pulsing shaft of his cock.
"Oh yeah, that's what I'm talking about," he sighed, as I turned around, pushing him back onto the bed, and sinking to my knees. I slipped his boxers down, off his hips, his cute dick spring up to point at me. I giggled again. His piss slit was oozing his clear, viscous pre-cum, the salty and sweet juice he produced that I loved so.
