The call came at about 9 am.
"Hello!"
"Ah, Mrs. Jacobsen, this is Victor Sylvester, I work with your husband."
That was an understatement, Victor Sylvester was the Chairman of the Elotus Corp, and my husband Richard was the chief financial officer.
"I know you are aware that Richard is a prime candidate for the presidency of Elotus, and I need to have a word with you in private regarding his future and yours."
"Well certainly Mr. Sylvester, but I am not sure how much help I can be, and Richard is in Phoenix this week."
"Well, that's why I'm calling, because what I have to say is for your ears only, something of a surprise for your husband you might say."
"Yes of course. Where would you like to meet."
"Well, let's keep it informal, what if I stop by your home in about an hour, would that be convenient for you?"
"Well, yes, it will give me time to straighten up a little."
"Fine Mrs. Jacobsen, I'm looking forward to seeing you again." He hung up.
My mind is whirling, perhaps he is going to let me tell Richard that he got the presidency. What else could it be. Richard has been with Elotus for 15 years, and it is his whole life. He has advanced steadily to his present job, and is very excited about this opportunity to be the president. The next hour passed very slowly for me as I anticipated the arrival of Mr. Sylvester. I showered and dressed in a way I thought an executive's wife should. And then his car pulled in the driveway. Victor Sylvester was not my favorite person. I am sure he is very good at his job, and he has a reputation for being very ruthless in advancing his interests for the company. Physically he is rather short, about 5 7, and with a pot belly showing his love for drink and fine food, but he had always been quite polite to me and the other wives when ever there would be a company gathering. I walked down the hall and answered the door with the ring of the doorbell. He smiled as I stepped back to let him in.
"Lovely to see you Mrs. Jacobson." he greeted me.
"Thank you, Mr. Sylvester, I can hardly wait to find out why you wish to see me privately." I said. "Please call me Gloria and would you like coffee?"
"That would be very good."
"Please have a seat in the living room, I'll be right back." I could feel his eyes following me as I went to the kitchen for the tray I had prepared. My skirt was short but fashionable, and my silk blouse was what a career woman might wear. Smart, a little transparent and probably quite revealing as it clung to my breasts and allowed just a little cleavage to show. I had worn nylon stockings and a garter belt, (Richard hated panty hose) and a string of pearls. I didn't wear heels often around the house but this morning was a special occasion.
Mr. Sylvester watched me as I came back to the living room. Bending over to put the tray on the coffee table I could feel his eyes looking down my blouse. I poured the coffee as quickly as I could, and then sat facing him. His eyes followed me as I crossed my legs, and I realized that my skirt was quite shorter sitting down. Blushing I uncrossed my legs and attempted to pull the skirt down but to little avail. He was enjoying this I could tell.
"You are a beautiful woman, Mrs. Jacobson."
"I am flattered Mr. Sylvester, but I am sure that is not what you came here to tell me."
"I came to talk about your husband's career and his possible promotion to the presidency of our company, and the part that you will play in seeing him realize his ambitions."
"But how can I possibly assist you, Mr. Sylvester?" "Lovely lady, you can guarantee his promotion by simply being nice to me."
"I don't understand." I stammered. My mind whirling with his words, as he continued to gaze unrestrainedly at my legs, and letting his eyes drift up to my breasts.
"Let me explain to you then."
His eyes fixed on mine and he continued,
"You are a beautiful woman, and I think beautiful women should share their charms and their bodies, and not keep them just for one man. There is not a man in my company who hasn't expressed the desire to sleep with you, no the word is they all want to fuck you, but I have the means to accomplish that for myself."
I stood up. "I think you should leave now, your language is very crude." I said.
He continued to sit there and smile, almost leer at me.
"Ah, I see you don't understand." he paused, "If you don't grant me my wishes, your husband will not be promoted, and that will be the end of his dream."
"When I tell Richard about this you will have to answer to him." I stammered as my mind was reeling from what was happening.
"Let me put it another way, if you don't grant me some pleasure with you, your husband will be dismissed. Oh, he will be allowed to resign, but there will be a cloud over his leaving the company, and I will plant rumors that will insure that he will never attain a high office in any company ever again."
His smile was gone now.
"You will have to readjust your life away from country clubs, fine homes, and the lifestyle you now enjoy." he paused, "So think about it very carefully before you get too indignant. After all, all I am asking is for you to be pleasant for a little time and it will all be over, and you and Richard will have all you have hoped for, is that too much to ask.?"
He sat back, and poured himself more coffee, sipped it and looked at me over the cup.
I sat there stunned not knowing what to do or say, realizing that this despicable little man had the power to destroy everything that we had hoped for. And I thought of our two children whose future could be changed forever because of this man. And I realized that all those rumors about him stopping at nothing to get what he wanted were true.
"Your husband will never know unless you were foolish enough to tell him, because that would have an effect on your marriage that would never go away, so think carefully before you decide that my request is unthinkable to you."
As he calmly sipped coffee, I sat shaking inside with the thought that I didn't have many choices, if I agreed I would have to put up with some unspeakable indignities with a man I detested, and if I ordered him out, I was jeopardizing the future of my entire family.
"How can I be sure that you will do what you promise?" I asked.
"You must trust me to keep my word" he simply said.
"Then what comes next?" I asked.
"Well, you might show me your bedroom to start with." He smiled as he looked at me knowing that my surrender was almost complete.
"This way." I couldn't believe what was happening to me.
He followed me into the hallway and I started up the stairs, and as I did I felt his hand under the back of my skirt and then it was on my bottom feeling me as we ascended. I stopped and looked at him.
"A man loves to watch a woman from behind as she walks, but it is even better to feel her walking." he said without apology.
Totally humiliated, I turned and started up the stairs as his hand found me again, feeling and groping me all the way up the stairs. I almost ran into the bedroom. He closed the door behind him, and motioned me to the center of the room. He walked over to me and put his arms around me then pulled my head to him and he kissed me, and felt my bottom and probed between my buttocks with his fingers, and he kept kissing me and then I felt him pull up my skirt and his hands were inside my panties, one hand in the front and one in the back, and he was rubbing my pussy, and feeling my bottom, and then his fingers were inside me, and I pushed him away in revulsion. He went over and sat on the divan.
"Perhaps I am rushing you, beautiful lady." he said. "If you are wise you will try to enjoy this as I know I can give you great pleasure if only you will let yourself relax."
I knew that I must control my emotions because I felt sure now that he would be very vindictive if I let him know I found him repulsive.
