I answered my phone and wrapped up the call quickly as I glanced at Cody and saw the soft grin on his face. I put my phone down and headed back toward... the kitchen and again he wouldn’t move. I made sure to drag my plump ass against him affectionately as I squeezed past, this time he was hard and I felt him press back.I entered the kitchen and was leaning over the stove when I felt his presence behind me. His hands crept to my front and began caressing my breasts and he placed soft kisses on my. Nice day, eh?” I said, trying (and failing) to act casual.“It’s getting better,” she said. “So, whatcha doin’?”I shrugged. “Nothing much, just waiting for Jess and some friends to come out.” Totally casual.“That so? And you’re waiting outside, in public, in the nude?” she asked lightly.“Uh,” I said, trying quickly to think of a response. “I’m not nude. I have this hat.” Totally smooth.Striking like a cobra, she swiped out and grabbed the hat from my hands, whipping it away and stepping back. The current pile of suggestions was more realistic and helpful.I opened my desk drawer to pull out two sealed envelopes.“Jean, Maria? These are your letters of appointment as Deputy Managers, approved by the company board. They are dated today, but backdated two weeks.”Despite having acted in those roles for a fortnight they hadn’t expected to be appointed so soon. Maria queried it.“Why Alan? And how? We were persona non grata with the previous board. Now we are deputy managers?”“Thank Mr. "You are one hell of a specimen." He slapped my ass, but I couldn't move.Instead, when I felt his touch an electricity surged through my body. "Wehave debated your training, but I have come to the conclusion that wewill not ease your way into your life. You will be thrust into the life Ihave chosen for you with the same violence you yourself thrust yourselfinto the lives of others. You will always know what you once were, butyou will no longer have the control over the body you are.
