"We have a problem," Mia's colleague Lisa blurted out during their lunch break.
"What sort of problem?"
"The Halloween party. The old man isn't coming."
"So?"
"Guess who'll be in charge of the company credit card?"
"You?"
"Think again."
Mia sighed deeply. "I thought he learnt his lesson last year."
"Guess not."
"So, the favourite protegee will have another go at buying free drinks for everyone and we'll be front-page news for weeks to come? Great! I can't wait to fend off another media storm featuring drunken people going berserk. I still have nightmares about last year."
"You're not the only one and this year we also have the new trainees. I would hate to get a rape case on top of everything else," Lisa said.
"There's only one solution. We have to prevent the disaster before it happens."
"By asking all the men to keep it in their pants?"
"Good luck with that. No, we need to reduce the alcohol amount available. Which basically means to prevent a certain protegee from using the credit card," Mia said.
"That's the tricky part. The old man has entrusted me to keep him in toll."
"And how are you supposed to do that? Tie up the big guy?"
"Good idea," Lisa said ironically. "Just how many thugs do you think we need to hire?"
"Too many. I hear he's a former rugby player so that might ruin that plan. We should probably just knock him over the head at the start of the evening and hope that he sleeps through it all."
"Bad idea. We would still need the thugs and I bet the old man won't like it. I'm not going to jail because of this," Lisa said.
Mia pondered the problem for a while. The protegee, Sebastian Blakeley, was an attractive man in his early thirties. As head of the sales department he was perfect; smooth-talking and charming the pants off every woman around.
But at finance, he had his shortcomings. Giving too many 'Yes' when he should have said 'No'. Which was probably related to his inability to turn down any proposal that was attached to a pair of breasts. If they tried to reason with the man, he would only get his boxers into a twist.
That would have been a most interesting thing to watch though, Mia thought, but it would not solve the problem. Still, maybe they could take advantage of his shortcomings and let it work in their favour. What if they could turn his weakness for the fairer sex into a honey pot trap?
They just needed someone to act as bait. Someone that would keep her wits long enough to steal a certain credit card. Someone that was willing and able to seduce without feeling any qualms about it. Someone that had the right age, looks and curves to succeed.
There were plenty of women with the right attributes, leaving the qualms as the tricky bit. In that case, Mia could only think of one person that was ruthless enough to act the part: herself. It was too tempting to resist, Mia thought, and with the right outfit, she knew that she could pull this off.
The man looked like a walking sex god and she had spent too many nights dreaming about his hard body doing naughty things to her. She took a deep breath and hoped that she didn't look as flushed as she felt. Maybe it was about time that she pampered herself with some hot sex with the sexiest man around.
At least she could give it a try. Those that dared nothing gained nothing and if she succeeded, they wouldn't have to turn to crime to prevent another disaster.
"Leave it to me," Mia said to Lisa. "I'll handle it."
"How?"
"Never mind how. I have a plan. You just act normal so he won't become suspicious."
"What's the plan?"
"It's better that you don't know any details, but I intend to prey on his weaknesses. I guess you can say that desperate times require desperate solutions."
"Now I'm seriously starting to worry. Are you going to drug him?" Lisa asked.
"No, I know exactly how to deal with him. But if my first plan fails, I might consider that option."
"You're insane," Lisa said.
Or horny, Mia wanted to say but she kept her mouth shut. Lisa might not understand why Mia felt the need to do this.
