Alison Forrest was in a quandary. She had been in that state for some weeks now and answers had not yet been made available to her. Quandary was not Alison's natural state. Her usual state was either jovial or naughty and sometimes, if the wind was blowing in the right direction, both at the same time. Those who were around her at times like that tended to reap the benefits.
She was lunching with her best friend and cousin, Annaliese Sanders. "So sweetie, how are you?" Annaliese asked her.
Alison put down her Cosmopolitan and smiled. "I'm in a quandary, to be honest," she answered Annaliese. Her ever-present smile was ... well, not present.
"How totally unlike you," Annaliese answered, pondering over whether or not she wanted another Margarita. "You're usually jovial or naughty."
"I was just thinking that," Alison said, forcing a tiny smile. "Well, Christmas is fast approaching and I need to think of a special Christmas gift."
"Why? Hey, have you started seeing someone?" Annaliese inquired.
"No, I need to think of something for Daddy," Alison said. "He's been so great about letting me stay at his gorgeous home and paying all of my bills. He didn't have to do that, God knows, my mother sure wouldn't have."
"It wasn't your fault your relationship with Jim ended," Annaliese said, deciding on the drink. "He was a cheating shit and the lease to the apartment was in his name. Where were you supposed to go?"
"That was two years ago and Daddy hasn't ever bothered me about getting a job or chipping in for food or groceries, not one thing," Alison answered. "He's been an absolute prince and you can just imagine what the food's been like," she said with a bit of a smile returning to her face. When Alison was growing up, her father had run a small restaurant specializing in French food. 5 years ago, his second cookbook hit big and he was offered his own cooking show on the Food Network. Now her father was a multi-millionaire with 4 restaurants and a huge home.
"I don't know why you're so worried, Uncle Claude really doesn't need anything," Annaliese said as their server brought her drink. "He even invited me to come and live with the two of you if I decide to return to my painting and sculpting."
"I keep telling you that you should go for it," Alison smiled. "It would be nice to have some company around the pool and to go places with. I don't know why you need to work in the first place; your folks have almost as much money as mine." Alison's father had made his sister his business manager and his brother-in-law was his accountant. He believed first and foremost in taking care of family and the arguments he'd had with his now-ex wife over that had led to a very bitter split.
"I like the costume shop and getting to wear all the fun outfits every day," Annaliese giggled. The staff wore different costumes each day when they worked to show to the customers how they looked. "I can paint just as easily at home. Hey, you remember the outfit I wore for Halloween? I never would have been able to wear that if it weren't for my job."
"I remember that outfit, it was pretty outrageous," Alison smiled. Then, the familiar naughty smile crossed her lovely face. She brushed stray blonde curls out of her face and her gorgeous blue eyes were now dancing with delight. Annaliese knew that look all too well as she had been on the receiving end of that look on several occasions. All of those occasions had come to very
satisfying
conclusions.
"What are you thinking?" Annaliese asked of her cousin. She could almost hear the gears grinding as her manipulative little mind began concocting some sort of scheme. If it had been a cartoon, smoke would have been pouring from her Alison's ears.
"Can you get your hands on that outfit again?" Alison asked her.
"Yeah, but it won't fit you, we're built a bit differently," Annaliese told her. While the cousins were almost the same height, Annaliese was reed-slim, like a fashion model. Alison was curvy and busty, like an old-time pinup model.
"If you can find me one like it, that'd be great. Daddy deserves something special and I've just figured out what it is and with your staff discount, it won't cost me a fortune. Which is good, because I spent a fortune on your graduation gift last year and I'm still rebuilding my savings," she laughed. Alison had treated her cousin to two weeks in Paris where they both had relatives they had not previously met.
"I can probably get you an identical outfit for around $200, is that within your budget?" Annaliese asked. Alison nodded and sipped her drink with an enigmatic smile. "Are you going to tell me what it is you have in mind?"
"Yes, because I know that I can trust you and you won't freak out when I tell you," Alison grinned at her cousin. She leaned in close so she could make sure they would not be overheard. "You know that my Daddy likes to do everything around the house by himself and he won't hire staff, right?"
"Yes, where are you going with this?"
"Well, Daddy might be a cooking phenomenon, but he's also a terrible slob. So I thought ..."
Claude Forrest decided he would figure out some nice Christmas surprise for his daughter. It was always so nice to have her to come home to. After his bile-filled split from her self-serving mother, Allie was a breath of fresh air. Maybe a nice trip somewhere or a little shopping spree? It was nice to be able to indulge her; he had always wished they'd had more when she was growing up. Alison was always protesting that he was spoiling her but what good was money if you couldn't make life comfortable for those you loved? It was one of the reasons he made his sister's life easier and why he had offered to let Annaliese move in with them. He knew how close Allie and Annaliese were and it would be fun for the two of them to share a home.
He threw on a robe and as he walked past his daughter's room, he saw that her door was open and her bed was neatly made. That was a surprise as it was only 10 AM and Alison was less a morning person than he. He wondered what she was doing up and thought it might be nice to make breakfast for the two of them. He got half-way down the stairs when he heard the vacuum cleaner running. He and Alison had argued about his hiring a maid, had she gone to an employment agency and done so without telling him?
He was almost at the bottom of the stairs when he spotted her and stopped dead in his tracks. At first, he wasn't sure, but yes β it
was
Alison doing the cleaning and it looked like she had tidied up a lot. Things were organized and in their proper place, all the cups and mess he left in the living room were missing. It was the manner of dress his daughter affected that stunned the talented chef. She was wearing a shiny black latex bra, panty and black latex gloves and stockings with high heels. Her hair had been styled and she was wearing the pearl necklace and earrings he had given her the previous Valentine's Day. The bra was cut so that you could see her nipples and the panties left part of her crotch exposed so he could see the blonde fluff of his daughter's pussy. She looked sexy and magnificent, although Claude knew he really shouldn't be thinking of her that way. This gorgeous young creature who was flitting about the house cleaning everywhere was his daughter β but
Christ
, she sure looked sexy! He knew she was a beautiful and vivacious young woman but he had never thought of her in this way before.
Alison spotted her father before he had a chance to go back upstairs. "Morning Daddy, you're up early," she beamed. "I hope I didn't wake you. Merry Christmas to you," she smiled at him.
"Actually, that isn't for another three days," Claude said as he finished his descent. "Allie honey, what the ...?"
"I wanted to get an early start, this place is a mess," Alison smiled. "Honestly Daddy, you could learn to pick up after yourself."
"I mean, the outfit ...?"
"Oh, THIS?" Alison teased. "I didn't want to dress like some frumpy old maid or do the French Maid thing β too clichΓ©. You're a successful businessman Daddy and you should have a sexy maid to look after every room in your house.
Every
room, Daddy," Alison smiled as she neared her vibrant, handsome parent.
Claude was sure she was just teasing or trying to test his limits. There was no way the statuesque blonde could mean what she was suggesting. He was sure of that until she wrapped her arms around him and kissed him. In the 4-inch heels, she had an inch on him. "I meant
exactly
what you thought I meant, Daddy," Alison said as if she had been reading his thoughts. "This is my Christmas present to you. I'm your sexy new maid. Do you like the wrapping?" She giggled.
