A big shout out to my editor, Mandibularfossa. She's as smart as she is sexy!
You could say it was luck, but I doubt Tina was feeling very lucky as she slowly unbuttoned her blouse. She was cute, a chubby, mousy sort in her early 30s, with big tits and a round booty. Her face, when it wasn't registering shock at her new circumstances, was pretty, with expressive brown eyes and a cute button nose. Her auburn hair, usually pulled into a business-like bun, fell down her shoulders.
"Isn't there some other way?" She looked at me, sucking in a breath as she realized the gravity of her situation. She blinked away tears, hoping I might change my mind.
"I think you know how I feel about it," I said, adjusting in my chair to relieve some of the pressure from my now rock hard dick. "You fucked up, Tina. You fucked up, you tried to make me your fall guy, and you got caught." I looked her straight in the eyes. "And now you're going to make it right."
Almost six months ago I'd started in the admissions department of a very prestigious west coast university. It was THE school for the children of movie stars and celebrities. I wasn't dedicated to education. I was just happy to have a job, having left a government position when we got downsized due to budget cuts. But my investigatory experience came in handy as the admissions department needed to make sure they wouldn't face a bribery scandal like happened on the east coast. My job was to make sure things were squeaky clean.
I met Tina Hawthorn the first day. She gave me the tour, but remained aloof. She didn't really go into details about her job or her clients. It didn't bother me, as I wasn't particularly attracted to her and my contract was only for 9 months. But I noted some discomfort when I asked how she handled the rich, entitled parents.
"They're just like any of us," she said, smiling. "They want the best for their kids." When we returned to her office, I noticed a Chanel bag under her desk, and I made a note to keep an eye on her.
It was almost 5 months later when I finally got around to looking at the records of each admission. Some students were, to say the least, academic underachievers. They had grades that didn't match their test scores, and scores that didn't match their essays. But the admissions were mostly above board, and I cleared each admissions counselor in turn. Tina, though, was the last to get my scrutiny. As I went through the records, I saw a notation in a few of the files that pointed to a university bank account that I didn't recognize. I decided to investigate.
Imagine my surprise when I found the bank account was in my name.
It was a clumsy attempt at hiding the account holder, as only one person had accessed the funds. Tina Hawthorn had withdrawn nearly $200,000 over five months. A little digging showed me three more accounts going back four and a half years, and totaling a staggering 2.1 million dollars. The deposits matched the social security number of several wealthy parents whose children had been pushed to the top of the list, and a few who were simply admitted without even an application.
Framing me was clumsy and dumb, but the actual scheme was surprisingly well hidden. Had it not been for my name, it probably would've remained a secret, and Tina could have kept making secret millions. But she tried to screw me, and I was pissed. I carefully made my case, and over the next few weeks gathered enough evidence to put her, and some very rich parents, in prison.
"Come in, Tina. Have a seat." I ushered her into my office. It wasn't the best place for this type of meeting, but it was private and official enough that Tina would be on edge. She sat in the chair and crossed her arms in front of her ample chest. "Can you state your name and birthdate for the records?"
"Tina Marie Hawthorn, September 3rd, 1990." She huffed, clearly agitated. "Do we really need to do this?"
"We do," I said. "I just need to understand a little more about the university admissions process. Can you help me?"
She took a few minutes to detail how someone gets into the school, the testing, the board. "Would a parent ever pay to get their child higher on the list?"
"No," she scoffed. "We don't work like that." Her eyes narrowed a bit, and her chest turned red. I slid a manila file across the table. "What's this?"
"I'm hoping you can tell me," I said, opening the file. "It shows a series of payments. Payments that correspond with admission of certain wealthy students."
"What does this have to do with me? It looks like your name here." She smirked, and it made me angry.
"Listen, bitch, if it isn't obvious by now, there's enough here to put you in jail. Real jail. For about five years. I'm hoping it doesn't come to that, but you need to start talking, and quick." I didn't want to lose my cool, but that smirk. "You tried to frame me. That was dumb. It led directly to your account."
"Maybe someone is trying to frame me..." She fiddled with her ring.
"If that's the case," I said, scooting closer, "why don't you help me figure out who? I'll help protect you and keep you out of prison."
"You'd help me?" She knew she was screwed, and for some reason she looked to me for a lifeline. I could see her trying to cry.
And something snapped. This petty bitch made millions of dollars defrauding the university, tried to frame me for it, and now she thought that I would help her? In that instant, she looked so sweet and innocent. She looked like prey.
"I'll be happy to help you," I said. "And you're going to do some things for me." I'm sure I was grinning. I couldn't help it.
