The cursor blinked on the screen before her. On one side, a video showed a man in a bedroom with a girl who was far too young to be there. On the other, a series of files linked together into a coded messaging service. Stella's fingers flashed across her keyboard as she sent another message to her father.
"It's all ready to go, dad. I just finished uploading the Uppstone files. But do you think this will achieve anything? Tony Dank is popular. He could probably get away with shooting someone in the middle of the city, let alone a little sexual scandal."
"Doesn't matter, sweetheart," came the reply quickly. "The client's paying for the material. It's up to them to make the blackmail stick."
"Ok, dad, it's on the way right now."
She clicked send and watched as the encryption kicked in. When you were dealing with this kind of thing you used as much security as you could get.
"So, are you still behaving yourself?"
A smirk crossed Stella's lips.
"You have me preparing illegal blackmail material on one of the biggest celebrities in reality TV and you're asking if I'm behaving."
"You know what I mean," replied her father. "I know what you kids are like in college. I was one too once."
"I know, dad, but this is England. They're all prudes here."
"NEVER try to play me, Stella. You're MY daughter. I know exactly what you're like... and England's reputation is complete bullshit, too. That place can put Sin City to shame."
"LOL! Relax, dad. I'm... behaving."
"STELLA!"
"Ok, ok. Damn, dad, you're so easy to play. I'm not doing anything wrong."
She grinned smugly. Technically, she hadn't lied. She was behaving -- badly, but it was still behavior. And, if you judged her behaviour by the worst darksites that her father ran, she was practically a saint! Not that she'd explain that to him.
Arms reached around her, groping her breasts unexpectedly. Fingers grabbed her nipples, crushing them. Teeth found her neck and bit, hard.
"FUCK!" she cried out in pain and shock.
"Morning you sexy bitch," whispered Max in her ear. "I'm up..."
She reached down and grabbed his cock through his boxers. "Yeah, I can tell that! How about you give a girl a warning next time."
"How do you expect me to behave when you sit there naked? Besides, it's more fun this way."
"Max! I'm chatting with my dad!"
He looked at the screen over her shoulder. "You are? In text? He probably misses you. You should turn on the webcam."
He started reaching around her towards the mouse. She slammed her arm down to block his way.
"Don't you fucking dare!"
Max laughed. "Anyone ever tell you you're sexy when you're scared?"
"Scared is one thing, Max, but understand something - if my dad ever finds out what we get up to he'll drag me back to the states and probably hire every hit man he can to take you out. I'm not saying they'd manage it, but even a wild cat like you only has so many lives. Besides, if I'm stateside you won't get to break me any more."
"Okay, I know. I wouldn't REALLY do it... well... probably not. You don't want to be too sure, do you? So what have you been doing?"
"Just helping out my dad's business... a little information gathering. Nothing too special."
She paused as Max continued to explore her body with his hands. She shifted her thighs, feeling aroused as she recalled the previous night.
"Hey, have you seen my phone?" asked Max.
She slid the keyboard platform out further from her computer desk, revealing it. She picked it up and handed it back to him.
"Sorry, I was just checking the text you got this morning."
"You took my phone?!" Max spun her chair around so she was facing him. He leaned down and stared into her eyes. "You know you'll be punished for that later, right?"
