Jonas Art again tested the cuffs that kept him bound to the metal chair, and again found them secure. He sighed, leaning back in his seat and scanned the cold, sterile confines of the interrogation room. The two-way mirror reflected back a strong man with short cut hair in a jacket and shirt. Jonas smiled at his reflection and flexed for the benefit of whoever was watching on the other side.
The door opened and he turned to see who his enemy was, and stared.
The woman who walked into the room was an officer of Haze's police department, that much was clear by her uniform. The body within it, however, made him drastically reconsider.
Firm, perky breasts were bound tight by her buttoned jacket. A pencil skirt showed long legs and hugged a pair of rolling hips. Her face was stunning, framed by blonde hair spilling out of a stiff brimmed hat. Her badge dangled from a necklace, golden and brilliant and resting in the valley of her breasts.
"Holy shit," Jonas said, grinning. "I didn't know the strip clubs were hiring out."
The woman lifted a dark brow and set down the files she'd been carrying. She leaned over, her badge dangling, flashing in the fluorescent light. "Jonas Art. Brought in for racketeering and drug dealing. First time arrested in Haze but, according to this, you've been a naughty boy elsewhere in the country. And quite often," she observed.
Jonas frowned at her amused tone. "Yeah. And?"
"I'm officer Poppy. You're not smart enough to deal in this city. Who's your boss?"
Jonas laughed. "Oh really? You think I'm going to sell him out? Guess again sweetheart. Just charge me and toss me in a cell. I'll be out in a week."
She smiled again, and there was something in that smile that gave Jonas his first real feeling of unease. He shifted in his chair as she leisurely took a seat across from him. She reached up and began to toy with her necklace. "You're new here, Jonas. Which isn't surprising. We do things a little... differently in Haze."
"Yeah?" Jonas said, his brow knitting.
"Oh yes," Poppy murmured, the badge flashing in the weak lights, spinning in her lacquered nails. "We don't really believe in interrogation. Our officers are of the opinion that... given the right... stimulus... people want to tell us everything they know..."
Jonas blinked. The flash of her badge was distracting. It kept pulling his attention to it. He shook himself, his head aching a bit. Fucking lights. "Well tits for you. But I'm not one of them."
"I think you could be," Poppy mused. "Given the right incentives..."
Her badge was flashing and dancing. Spinning like his head was starting to. Jonas blinked again, furrowing his brows. The golden shield was framed by her curving breasts as they rose, and fell. Rose and fell. Timed to her slow, heavy breathing.
"Do you like my badge?"
"I like your tits more," Jonas said, forcing some of his old bravado up.
"Yes. They are nice, aren't they? So big and heavy. Would you like to see them?"
"I... what?" Jonas said.
