Literotic asexstories – Harem House – Selene Pt. 19 by SirAeghann,SirAeghann
Arthur awoke Wednesday morning to the faint smell of flowers he couldn’t place at first. The scent of Kat’s shampoo was under his nose as her curled blonde hair bustled in front of his face. They were both on their side, with his arm over her and her back nestled against his front. The feeling of her round ass pressing into him made him realize that he was hard, with his dick between her cheeks. He would have closed his eyes and reveled in the moment’s bliss if it weren’t for the phone alarm blaring behind him.
Kat slowly opened her eyes to join him in the waking world and groaned. Not the way he was used to hearing her groan, but in displeasure. She was barely awake, and she was grumpy about it.
“Shut off your phone.” Kat grunted and pushed her hips back against him. Her eyes woke slightly more as she felt him lodged against her backside.
Arthur rolled away and hit the snooze on his phone, turning off the annoying alarm, blanketing them in darkness once again.
“I need to get up and get to campus for my workout.” Arthur sighed.
“I can lock up.” Kat offered. She closed her eyes and settled back in.
“You don’t want to come with me?” Arthur asked, surprised. She’d come with him on Monday, after all, so had Selene. He was half expecting them to do it again today.
Kat waved him off. “I’m going back to sleep. Also, you need a coffee maker.” Kat said as she nestled the covers in front of her.
Arthur chuckled and got up, turning his pillow and closing the blankets behind him so Kat could go back to sleep. He knew where his clothes were and pulled them out carefully, trying to open his drawers as quietly as possible. He dressed by phone light and left the bedroom behind to hit the bathroom. Then he was in the living room, taking a moment before he left for the gym.
He checked his phone, seeing a series of goodnight messages in the House Chat and a few private ones.
Slut: Goodnight, Master! I hope tonight goes well for both of you!
There was a picture accompanying it of Selene, nude and kneeling as if praying at the side of her bed.
Slut: Let me know if you need me.
That message was from late last night, but there was no message from this morning. She was likely asleep. She’d been getting up so early with Arthur’s schedule the previous few days he’d nearly forgotten that she usually slept most mornings with her classes in the afternoon.
There was also a good night message from Mindy.
Whore: Goodnight, Boss! Staying the night at my folk’s place. Let me know if you put in an order, and I’ll make sure to be your delivery girl. Have fun with Kat!
He smiled, which quickly turned into a frown as he saw a text from an unrecognized number.
Unknown: Hey, this is Lynn. Your mom gave me your number to get in touch. Did you get my email by any chance? I sent you 1. Maybe it went to spam.
He closed his phone and put it away. He thought about skipping the gym and running but knew Kelly was waiting for him. Or at least he’d see her at the gym, and that was reason enough not to skip. He looked back at his bedroom door and, after gathering his things, crept in as quietly as possible. He crossed to the other side of the bed, looking down on Kat’s sleeping form, and gently kissed her forehead.
She stirred, blinking her eyes open. “You’re leaving for the gym?” She asked sleepily.
“Yeah.” Arthur nodded. “You’re okay to sleep for a bit; just lock the door behind you.”
“Okay.” Kat smiled, and her eyes started to close again. “Wait.” She said with a frown as her eyes opened again. “Do you want me to get you off before you go?”
“What?” Arthur asked, surprised. “No, you don’t have to do that.”
“I feel bad.” Kat said. “The others always wake you up with blowjobs, right?”
Arthur smiled softly. “Selene does, and Mindy, I guess. But you don’t have to.”
Kat yawned and stretched. “But I want to.” She protested. “I’m just a little sleepy.” She wet her lips. “Here.” She shuffled around on the bed until she was lying sideways across it with her head hanging off the side toward Arthur. Then she peeled down the blankets covering her until she was exposed from the waist up. Arthur could see her perky round breasts with their small areolas, the pale flesh striped with faint blushes of red in thin strips across her tits from the riding crop last night.
Kat pushed her breasts together and gently ran her fingers over her nipples as she started to stir. Then she opened her mouth. “Go ahead, Sir.” Kat purred sleepily. She reached lazily for him and brushed the front of his gym shorts before finding the elastic waist and pulling them down a bit. His cock sprang free, already hard at the sight below him, and Arthur decided to go with the flow. She stroked him a few times, slowly and lazily, without any real grip on it, then pushed her breasts together again and opened her mouth like she wanted him to take her.
Arthur obliged. He stroked himself a few times, looking down at her, then slowly squatted down a bit and pressed the tip of his cock into her mouth. She sucked on it as she closed her eyes, her head hanging off the edge of the bed a little. He pushed forward a little and watched his long thick member slide into her throat. She swallowed, and he withdrew when she started to choke on him, but she gripped his legs and pulled him closer, not letting him go. Then, after a few seconds, she pushed him away and sat up coughing, twisting to one side until the coughing stopped and she caught her breath.
“Sorry, Sir.” Kat sounded annoyed. “Please, let me try again. I’ll be a good girl for you. I promise.”
Arthur nodded and stroked her back until Kat laid back down on the bed. She opened her mouth again and waited. Arthur slid in slower this time and then gently rocked himself back and forth before drawing out of her entirely and letting her breathe. Seeing his cock swelling her exposed throat was intoxicating, and he felt harder just for seeing it as he slid his cock back in.
The grip on his thighs shifted as she moved one of her hands down under the blankets and started playing with herself, her legs spread gently to allow her fingers access. Arthur peeled the blankets back and watched with rapt attention as she played with herself.
Arthur rubbed her breast gently, eliciting an incomprehensible noise from her that felt great against his cock in her throat. He slid out again, his cock wet and slick from her saliva, and brushed it against her face. She grimaced but didn’t stop him or protest. Then he slid his cock back into her and pumped gently, drawing out into her mouth at the back of each stroke so she could breathe.
Her breathing started to quicken as he increased his pace, and she increased the speed of her fingers playing away between her legs. Arthur watched her toy with her clit and finger herself in alternating strokes until she finally brought her other hand down. Then she was fingering herself with one hand and playing with her clit with the other. Her arms framed her c-cup breasts and pushed them together with her hands between her legs.
He couldn’t take it anymore. He pulled out of Kat’s throat and stepped forward, trapping her head a little between his thighs and laying his wet cock between her breasts. She gasped and kicked a little in surprise at the feeling but did not stop him or protest. She merely lifted her head a little and started licking his balls. He started pumping.
Kat moaned and kissed his thigh, licking and biting him gently on his legs where she could reach, and let him fuck her tits. The feeling flushed her chest as the marks from last night flared with a dull pain that mingled inexplicably with the pleasure she gave herself between her legs.
“Please, cum for me, sir.” Kat moaned. “Cum all over my tits. I’ll be your good girl and wear your cum like a badge of pride.”
Arthur didn’t know what it was about Kat’s dirty talk, but she was good at it. The slightly whispered voice she used, the subtle embarrassed tone, the breathy little gasps she would take, and the words all worked together to fan the flames in him. He listened as she gasped when he ran his thumbs over her hardened nipples, and he watched as her hips started to buck against her hands.
Kat curled up slightly and sucked his balls into her mouth, playing with them as though she were trying to pull his trigger with her tongue while he pumped away between her tits. She succeeded.
He blew the first shot so hard it splattered against her hands and dripped onto her bush. The second shot landed a little higher, just below her waistline. The third was just above her belly button. After he’d stood up slightly and taken a slight step back once, she released his balls; the final landed directly between her breasts even as she pushed them together for him.
“Hm.” Kat cooed and softly closed her eyes as if going back to sleep. “Was I a good girl?”
“Yes.” Arthur replied as he caught his breath. “Good girl.”
Kat wiggled her shoulders happily and turned herself back around on the mattress. She left the covers off, lying there looking beautiful even as she was spattered with cum and had red marks across her breasts from her punishment last night. With her head back on the pillow, she blew him a kiss. “Have a good workout, Sir.”
Arthur almost laughed but thought better of it. He pulled up his shorts, kissed her on the forehead again, and closed the bedroom door behind him. He shook his head but grabbed his duffel and headed to the gym. He checked his phone again but still had no messages from Selene, and she wasn’t waiting for him at the car. She was probably still sleeping. He didn’t want to shoot her a message and wake her up if she needed the rest, and he knew she needed the rest. So he went to the gym alone for the first time in a few days.
The car ride was peaceful, given it was too early for much traffic. It was also his first time alone in the car for a while, so it was nice to get a chance to listen to some of his music as he drove. He missed the company and the pleasures Selene would often inflict whenever she was in the passenger’s seat, but ultimately he enjoyed the ride by the time he got to campus. The solitude gave him a chance to relax.
Parking the car and heading inside, he smiled when he saw Kelly walk in just after him. He’d already started his warm-up, but she quickly came over and joined him after giving him a quick kiss hello, which got them a few looks.
Kelly was a bombshell, as always. She forged her body here in the gym and showed it off with a modest black sports bra holding back her D-cup breasts but nothing else on her torso. The black lycra shorts Kelly wore left nothing to the imagination as far as her perfect heart-shaped ass was concerned and barely came to the tops of her well-toned thighs. She was all hard lines and soft flesh, and Arthur let his eyes give her a good once over and couldn’t help the goofy grin that struck his face, any more than she could hold back the proud smile that graced her lips at capturing Arthur’s attention.
“Good morning, Mister.” Kelly said in her teasing tone. “Ready to work out?”
“You bet.” Arthur nodded.
Kelly smiled back at him and started warming up with him. The workout went well as they moved through the exercises together using different weights from the free weight rack. It wasn’t until they were halfway through that conversation became interesting.
“Still looking forward to Friday?” Arthur asked.
“About that…” Kelly hesitated.
“Uh oh.” Arthur stopped. “What’s wrong?”
“So, it’s Katelyn’s first weekend being single, and she’s kind of angry at her ex, and she seems to think the best way to get over him is to go clubbing, have a girl’s night out.” Kelly explained.
“And she wants to go Friday.” Arthur surmised.
“Yeah. Saturday is homecoming, and Friday is the first night she’s available. I told her I already had plans, and she begged me to cancel them, so… I thought I’d ask you.” Kelly explained.
“Ask me?” Arthur sounded surprised. “Is it my decision if you go out with your friends or stay the night at my place instead?”
Kelly blushed and looked down, only looking up at their shared reflection in the mirror to meet Arthur’s gaze and his pleased smile.
“I was looking forward to Friday.” Arthur said. “Especially with what we’d talked about.”
Kelly blushed again.
“Couldn’t she go out with her other friends?” He asked.
“The only other friends I think she has is her volleyball team, and they aren’t that kind of friends.” Kelly explained. “That’s not their scene.”
“And it’s yours?” Arthur asked, slightly surprised. Kelly talked about going out and dancing occasionally, but he’d never really thought of her as a club girl.
“I like going out, dancing, flirting, and blowing my calorie limits on drinks that taste good and have risque names.” She smirked. “So sue me.”
“And I can’t come along because that would defeat the whole point.” Arthur deduced.
“Well, yeah.” Kelly nodded. “I’d feel kinda shitty bringing my man along on a girl’s night out.”
Arthur smirked. “And if I say no, you can’t go out with your friend, and we keep our plans for Friday night?”
“Then we keep our plans for Friday night, and I explain to Kate that I felt bad because you already spent the money on our plans.” Kelly said. “Which, if true, would make it a lot easier.”
Arthur thought about it. He hadn’t gone grocery shopping yet, so he hadn’t bought the ingredients for the dinner he planned on making. He hadn’t spent money or time yet on their anticipated date night. Still, he had been looking forward to it a lot. The only problem was he’d feel like a heel if he said no. Kate probably did need some support from her friends, and a night out feeling desired but in control would probably be good for her to get over her cheating ex.
Kelly watched him silently in the mirror as they breathed through their exercises. Arthur’s handsome face was set as he thought. He always looked so severe when trying to work through a problem. It was cute.
“Isn’t she friends with Kat?” Arthur asked suddenly. “They’re on the volleyball team together.”
“Well, yeah.” Kelly nodded, confused. Admittedly, she didn’t know Katerine very well. The other girls in the harem were people she’d seen around campus with and even had a few conversations with over the years, but they were new friends. Still, she didn’t think Kat was a club girl. She had a hard time imagining her being comfortable in that environment without a book, and that wouldn’t be any fun for poor Katelyn.
“What if she and Selene take Kate out, and you and I can have our date?” Arthur asked.
Kelly thought about it for a moment. Katerine might not fit in at a club, but punkish Selene would, so maybe there was hope. “Will they do that?”
Arthur almost laughed, but it became a smirk instead. Katerine would give him hell for it, possibly even refuse, but Selene would convince her, and Selene would do anything Arthur requested. He would be surprised to find out if there were anything she wouldn’t do, and going out for a night of fun was hardly a big ask for her. The most considerable difficulty would be getting Kat to agree, but she might be willing if he promised to make it up to her.
“I think so.” Arthur nodded. “I can ask, anyway.”
“That’d be perfect.” Kelly smiled. “Kate can go out, and I can have my night off with my man.” She blew him a kiss in the mirror.
“Perfect.” Arthur grunted as he finished his set.
By the time the workout was over, they were both tired and welcomed the cool down as they moved through the stretches on the mats. Kelly was deliciously flexible. Not quite as flexible as Selene, but much closer than Arthur. Arthur was working on it. His flexibility had never been his primary improvement goal when working out, but with more and more demands placed on him, he knew he would have to focus on it soon. Still, it needed to catch up to his endurance and stamina training. Stamina was the most important objective at the moment.
“Good workout.” Kelly smiled at him from her seated butterfly position on the mats.
Arthur stood and offered his hand to help her to her feet, which she accepted and pulled herself up gracefully. “Good workout.” Arthur agreed.
Kelly leaned up to his ear and whispered. “Want to do some cardio?”
Arthur swallowed and glanced at the clock. “What do you do for workouts on Tuesdays and Thursdays?” He asked.
Kelly frowned and pouted at him. She knew a no when she heard it. “Just a little cardio.” She answered, finally.
“Then let’s do cardio together tomorrow.” Arthur suggested.
“But that’s-” Kelly looked at him. “Okay.” She said with a sigh and crossed her arms over her chest. “You come in here, let me watch you workout, get me all worked up, and then skip out before you can make it up to me.”
“I have to work.” Arthur protested.
“Ugh. That’s only making it worse.” Kelly sighed. “Being responsible is sexy.”
Arthur laughed. “Go on. Think of me in the shower.”
“Oh, I will, Mister.” Kelly slapped him on the butt, then kissed him on the cheek quickly before sashaying away to the locker room door. Arthur’s weren’t the only eyes that watched her go, but his were the only ones she met when she looked over her shoulder before disappearing.
“Damn, dude.” Someone next to him said. “You hittin’ that?”
Arthur looked at the source to find a face he hadn’t seen in the gym before. A young man, probably a freshman or a sophomore, was still staring at the women’s locker room door.
“She’s my girlfriend.” Arthur answered.
“Damn.” The guy frowned. “If I’d have known girls like that worked out here, I’d have been coming to the gym sooner.”
“Don’t be a creep.” Arthur warned as he gathered up his stuff.
“Whatever, man.” The guy blew him off.
Arthur shook his head and made his way into the locker room. He checked his phone to see he had a message from Selene. He took his phone into the shower stall and watched the video she sent him with his earpiece still in his ear. Watching her perform her morning mantra was quickly becoming addicting.
Slut: Good morning, Master. I have work again today, but I hope to see you soon. I can’t wait to hear how things went with you and Kat last night. Did she behave for you, or did you have to punish her?
Master: I had to punish her, but nothing too taxing.
Slut: Are you home?
Master: At the gym. Last I left Kat she was sleeping in my room.
Slut: Did she wake you up with a blowjob?
Master: Did you tell her to wake me up with a blow job?
That would help to explain why Kat had been so insistent about getting him off before he left.
Slut: Maybe. Did she do it?
Master: No, but she gave me one before I left.
Slut: Lucky bitch.
Master: lol.
Slut: Are you with Kelly, then?
Master: Just said goodbye. In the locker room now, about to get a shower.
Slut: Wish I was there.
Master: Me too. For now, though, I need to ask you a favor.
Slut: Anything Master. Your wish is my command.
Master: What are your plans for Friday Night?
Slut: Getting ready for the weekend and trying to convince you to let me join you and Kelly.
Master: lol. Well… I need to ask practically the opposite of that. Kelly’s roommate needs a girl’s night out. Do you think you and Kat could take her out dancing or something? Help her get over her ex?
Slut: You need us to distract Kate so you and Kelly can fuck?
Master: Yup.
Slut: Of course, Master. I’ll let Kat know, and we’ll set something up. Though if the goal is to get her over her ex, you could always have her join you and Kelly.
Master: If Kelly wanted that, she would have suggested it. Take her out, let her feel desired but in control, y’know? I’ll give you some money so you can show her a good time.
Slut: Yes, Master.
Master: Good Girl.
Slut: When can I see you?
Master: I have work, class, and a late lunch today.
Slut: It doesn’t have to be for long. I just want to see you before tonight. I miss you.
Master: I miss you too. I’ll let you know. I might have a few minutes in between classes.
Slut: Enough minutes to pull me into a bathroom stall?
Master: Lol.
Slut: …
Slut: Please, Master? I’ll be the quickest quickie ever.
Master: We’ll see. Keep your phone on you.
Slut: Thank you, Master. Enjoy your shower. Please think of me!
She sent him a picture of herself, a naked selfie with one arm holding the phone out ahead of her and the other arm twisted behind her back, forcing her tits up and toward the camera. Arthur hadn’t jacked himself off in a while, but he was hard in the shower and seriously thought about it. Still, something told him he should save it up for her when he saw her next, so he turned the water cold to get through it, which solved his problem and cooled him off from the workout too.
He arrived at the office a few minutes early, dressed in his suit, to see Beth hovering by his desk as if waiting for him. He looked at her quizzically as if to ask what was up while he started his computer.
“Good morning.” Beth said. “Is Mindy with you?”
“No.” Arthur shook his head and glanced at Mindy’s desk. She wasn’t there, but he knew that already by her question. “Why? Did you need her for something?”
“Yes. Can you note when she gets here and let me know?” Beth asked. “She’s been late a lot recently.”
Arthur nodded. “Yeah, I talked to her about that, she’s working on improving. You want me to text her and make sure she’s on time?”
Beth shook her head. “No, that won’t be necessary.” She glanced at Arthur, and looked like she was about to say something, but Mindy’s arrival interrupted them.
They wore similar outfits today by accident. Beth was in a respectable fall-colored maroon sweater dress. It hung loosely on her, cinched by a wide black belt around her waist. Otherwise, it was utterly respectable, covering everything from the scooped neckline that didn’t show any cleavage all the way to the knees without being too suggestive of her tall figure. At 5’10”, she was taller than most women but still shorter than Arthur. He didn’t habitually check out his boss, but the tall black boots she wore with the dress were attention-grabbing, given the number of laces on her long calves.
Mindy, by contrast, had worn a gray sweater dress that stretched over every divet and curve of her body and seemed to threaten to stretch into sheer fabric if she moved the wrong way. It was also open-necked at the top, but with a plunging neckline that showed off the long line of her cleavage and the dress was much shorter than Beth’s, coming to mid-thigh whenever Mindy tugged it down. Her long tan skin was on display for most of her legs until the strappy black heels she wore on her feet.
“Good morning, Boss!” Mindy said as she came in, potentially greeting both of them though Arthur knew by her smile which one she’d intended to greet.
“Morning.” Beth replied as she glanced between Arthur and Mindy, who came to stand beside Arthur’s desk.
“Good morning.” Arthur gave her a slight smirk. “A few minutes early today, I see.”
“I didn’t want to be late again, so I set my alarm a few minutes early.” Mindy explained. She smiled at Beth, who didn’t smile back but nodded to them both and made her exit. She closed her office door behind her.
“What’s up with her?” Mindy asked.
Arthur shook his head. “I think she hoped to catch you coming in late. She asked if you were with me when I showed up.”
“Is she trying to fire me?” Mindy asked, alarmed. “Can she do that?”
“I mean… yeah. She’s our boss.” Arthur said. “I don’t think she will, though.”
Mindy moved to her desk, put her stuff down, and turned on her computer before returning to Arthur’s desk. “Please don’t let her fire me, Boss.” She said as she sat on the edge of Arthur’s desk, her legs together but not crossed as her skirt rode up a little. “I really need this job.” She said as she leaned toward him. “You’ve got some pull with her, right?” Mindy asked. “I’ll do anything if you can get her to change her mind.”
“Mindy…” Arthur warned.
“Anything.” Mindy promised in a voice that was just as suggestive as any line at the start of a porno.
“She’s in her office, and people come and go through here all the time when it’s not lunch…” Arthur warned her. “Behave.” He pointed toward her desk.
Mindy pouted. “Is it my outfit?” She asked. “Do you not like it?” She pulled at the neckline a little as she leaned over, giving Arthur an eyeful of the top of her breasts and showing off the transparent, white, lacy bra she wore beneath it. He could see the top of the dark nipple as she held her fingers curled against it, pulling down her neckline.
Arthur bit his lip as he took a deep breath and tried convincing himself that this was a bad idea. Anyone could walk through the door behind him without warning, and Beth could quickly return at any time.
“I can take it off if you don’t like it.” Mindy offered breathily.
Arthur’s eyes flicked behind her to Beth’s office door. Her shades were down and closed, but he knew she was in there. The door behind him was also unlocked. Other student workers could come in, or people from the other offices might need to use some of their supplies. There were a lot of reasons not to play at work, but at the moment, all he wanted to do was tell Mindy to get under his desk and pull that sweater dress down the rest of the way.
“Well, Boss?” Mindy asked. “What do you want?”
Arthur took a deep breath in.
“We could always go to the storage closet.” She suggested in a whisper.
Arthur shook his head. “No.” He said firmly. “We have work to do. Now get to your desk and get to work. We’ll discuss your insubordination while everyone else is at lunch.”
Mindy looked surprised and pouted when he said no, but the pout quickly turned into a smirk when he mentioned lunch. Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, they covered the typical lunch hour in the office and took a later lunch themselves. It was always a ghost town, and despite Mindy’s many hints and flirtations, she’d never gotten him to make a move on her during their time alone in the office before last Monday. Things were different now, and she smiled at him as she let go of her neckline and sat straight on his desk.
“Yes, Boss.” She said demurely as she stood up and walked around his desk, giving him something to look at by putting extra sway in her hips as she made a show of walking over to her desk, pouting, and plopping into her chair.
Arthur relaxed little, willing the erection threatening to break his trousers away by sheer force of will. Though, Mindy’s walk didn’t help things.
“Arthur?” Beth’s voice called from the doorway. He looked up to see her standing in her now open office doorway and looking at him from across the room.
“Yes?” He asked.
“Can I see you in here for a moment?” She beckoned.
“Uh…” Arthur hesitated, his erection still present and noticeable if he stood up in these slacks. “Be right there.”
“Now, please.” Beth said. She wasn’t being mean, but she clearly wanted to speak with him, and she wasn’t going to take no for an answer.
Arthur nodded. “Yup. Coming.” Arthur said, not moving.
Beth sighed and started tapping her foot in the doorway, waiting for Arthur to get up and getting frustrated that he wasn’t listening to her. Their recent arrangement after their misunderstanding had given Arthur the freedom to do things his way in the office, but clearly, she felt that he was using that to not have to listen to her, and she didn’t like it.
“I said now.” She reminded him.
Arthur sighed, glared at Mindy, who was doing her best to look innocent, and then he stood up from his desk and walked over toward Beth.
Mindy and Beth blushed, Mindy’s darker complexion darkening even further and Beth’s pale face turning pink before she turned away and walked back into her office.
Arthur glared at Mindy as she looked over her shoulder at him and gave him a mischievous wink. He walked into Beth’s office, shutting the door behind him out of habit, sat in one of the two chairs in front of her desk, and crossed his legs.
Beth raised her eyes to his from her seat behind her desk and did her best to sit tall, with her back straight. Silence reigned between them as if both were waiting for the other to speak.
“Sorry about that.” Arthur broke first. “I uh… I was going to try to wait it out, but…”
Beth’s cheeks turned pink again, and she looked away from him. “It’s alright.” She said. “Nothing I haven’t seen before.”
Arthur scoffed a little. That much was true. She’d seen more than that when he ended up being the stripper for her sister’s bachelorette party. That had led them to their little misunderstanding Monday when Beth thought he was blackmailing her for sexual favors, like something out of a porno or bodice ripper. He’d corrected her misunderstanding, but things had been awkward since, and clearly, they were about to become uncomfortable again.
“I wanted to apologize for the other day.” Beth said, “It was inappropriate of me, and I thought…” She hesitated. “I thought worse of you than you deserved.” She smiled slightly.
Arthur nodded. “It’s okay.” He assured her. “As I said, we don’t even need to talk about it, or Saturday night, ever again. On Monday, though, I wasn’t offended or anything. I was actually flattered.”
“Flattered?” Beth asked, surprised.
“Well, it seemed like you wanted it to be true.” Arthur pointed out. “Like it was a fantasy of yours or something, and you cast me as whatever sexy bad-boy villain you had cooked up.” He knew he was teasing her more than he should, but he wanted to try and lighten the mood with a joke. Unfortunately, his words seemed to have the opposite effect.
Beth’s cheeks turned from the fading pink blush to a scarlet red that choked the words out of her mouth. Her grip tightened on her skirt in her lap, and she turned away from him for a moment, coughing to try and excuse the blush.
She was older than him by about ten years if he had to guess, and even if her body was a little thicker in places with a few more signs of age, she still took care of herself. She had long, well-shaped legs that she hid behind long skirts and dresses. Her upper half tapered from the waist to a wide set of singer’s ribs with a respectable but not oversized bust.
Arthur saw through her little charade of embarrassment. Or at least, he hoped it was her reacting the way she thought she should when she really wanted something she knew she shouldn’t. Maybe all the attention from his harem was going to his head, but he was starting to think he was blessed. Obviously, Beth liked what she saw last Saturday and was attracted to him. That created a problem for her because he worked for her here in the office, and that kind of thing was downright forbidden.
He and Mindy could get away with it so long as no one caught them doing anything on the clock because they were technically equals, but even then, it was frowned upon. Beth? Beth was his direct superior, and the situation had been awkward since they’d last discussed it. This time, Arthur hoped to be straightforward and cut through all the misunderstandings and awkwardness.
“I-” Beth hesitated. “I will admit, I think maybe I got a little carried away.” She admitted. “I realized, going over it since we last talked, that you didn’t intend to suggest you had pictures or were intending to blackmail me. And maybe I got a little flustered.”
“Is it a fantasy of yours?” Arthur asked curiously.
“That’s none of your business.” Beth answered, her face pink again, calming down from the red.
Arthur smirked and shook his head. She was right, of course. What she fantasized about was her business, not his. And he had five girlfriends already who were keeping him more than busy. He didn’t need to add Beth to his list of women who wanted to play out their fantasies with him. He realized that’s what most of his girlfriends were doing. He was safe, and they trusted him, so they played out their fantasies with him. They tried new things they wanted to try without fear of judgment. He couldn’t begrudge them that since it let him play out his fantasies too. He truly lived a blessed life.
“Why are you smiling?” Beth asked.
Arthur hadn’t realized he was, but he straightened up and shook his head. “Sorry.” He said. “Just thinking about something else for a second there.” He admitted. “But it’s okay. I accept your apology.” He nodded. “We don’t need to be awkward anymore, do we?”
Beth smiled softly. “No, I suppose not.” She said. “And you didn’t tell anyone about our… misunderstanding?”
Arthur shook his head. “No.” He assured her. “I have a few secrets I can keep.” He smirked.
“Good.” Beth breathed a sigh of relief, and silence fell between them again until Arthur looked around and started to get up.
“Was that all?” He asked as he started to rise.
“One more thing.” Beth said, raising her hand so that he sat back down. “My Aunt, the organizer for my sister’s bachelorette party, really wants your number.”
Arthur looked surprised. “Uh…” He hesitated. “For another party?”
Beth nodded. “Are you… doing that part-time? Or…” She hesitated.
Arthur laughed. The cash was good. Like, a week’s pay for a few hours of work is good, and that didn’t even consider the tips. He could use the extra money to pay for things for his girls, but it wasn’t the kind of work he imagined himself doing long-term. Still, he was young, fit, healthy, and it let him perform in a way that spoke to him as a theater guy. It wasn’t a repulsive idea, but at the same time, it didn’t seem like a good idea either. How would it affect his future in the business world? If people found out, would it cancel any hopes he had of a career? Did he really need to do it?
“You told them I worked for you?” Arthur asked cautiously.
Beth shook her head. “I told them I’d seen you around campus. That I knew you worked in the admin building.” She admitted. “I… might have left out that you worked for me.”
“Keeping me your dirty little secret?” Arthur joked, but judging Beth’s flushed expression, he wasn’t that far off the mark. “Sorry, that was inappropriate.” Arthur offered a small and sheepish apology.
“No. I wasn’t.” Beth said determinedly. “I just didn’t want my sister to call off her wedding over you.”
Arthur’s eyebrows rose to the ceiling like Beth had them at gunpoint.
“She didn’t know that dicks came in your size.” Beth explained. “Apparently, her fiance is rather small and… not great in bed. She thinks you’re hot, but you did the right thing when you turned her down last Saturday.”
Arthur’s smile faded a little, but he nodded.
“And don’t get any ideas that I will give her your number.” Beth said firmly.
Arthur raised his hands in surrender. “Didn’t even think to ask for it.” He said honestly. “Your sister is cute, but I’m not looking to break anyone up, and… well, we should probably change the subject.” He suggested, and Beth seized the opportunity to take him up on it.
“About our arrangement…” Beth started.
Arthur looked at her, waiting for her to continue.
“The one where I get more of a say in the office?” Arthur asked.
Beth nodded. “Yes. I… I realized you’re right. A little. You do a lot here in the office, and I thought we should make it official so that it’s not such an upset to the balance of the office.”
“Make what official?” Arthur asked.
“I’ve been permitted to hire you as a student worker supervisor.” Beth informed him. “Which is pretty much what you’ve been doing anyway, except now you get the title.”
“And a raise?” Arthur asked hopefully.
“And a small raise.” Beth answered. “It’s not much, but it beats what you’ve been making.”
Arthur nodded, understanding. The school wasn’t going to pay him more than it had to, and as it was, they knew they didn’t have to. It did make him feel a little guilty, though. He wouldn’t need this one if things worked out with his new job, being the maintenance guy at his parent’s house. At least he wouldn’t need so many hours. It felt a little dishonest not to warn her that he might be leaving soon, but Arthur decided to keep his mouth shut in case things fell through. He didn’t expect them to, but playing it safe rather than sorry was always better.
“Congratulations.” Beth said with a firm nod.
“Thank you.” Arthur said, still mulling it over as he realized the implications. He really was Mindy’s boss now. Mindy would love that. HR would not. Should he mention it to Beth? Should he talk to HR? He wasn’t sure.
“You don’t seem happy.” Beth pointed out when she saw the lack of smile on Arthur’s face. He looked more worried than happy. “You don’t need to worry; it won’t change things between you and me. I’m still your boss, and things will continue as they have been.”
Arthur nodded. “Good.” He said with a slight smile now that she’d pointed it out. “I guess I’m just a little surprised. I thought for sure after Monday that you were mad at me.”
Beth nodded. “I was.” She explained. “I thought about firing you, about… punishing you, giving you all the crap work, that kind of thing. I was embarrassed, more than angry, though, I think.” She was blushing pink again, though she didn’t seem to notice, and Arthur wouldn’t point it out. “The more I went over it, the more I realized you were right and were just saying things I didn’t want to hear.”
Arthur smiled sheepishly. “I still shouldn’t have said it the way I did. I apologize for that, at least. It was rude of me.”
“Thank you.” Beth answered. “It was a little rude.” She agreed with a smile that Arthur returned.
Sensing it was time to get back to work, Arthur stood up and almost laughed when Beth’s eyes darted downward. His erection had faded by then, and she looked away immediately when she realized what she’d done.
“Do you have a girlfriend, by the way? Someone, you might want to talk to before scheduling any more appearances with my Aunt?” Beth asked.
Arthur smirked as he headed out the door and back into the main part of the office. “I’ve got five, actually. I’ll run it past them and see what they say.”
Beth laughed and waved him on as he left her office, closing the door behind him. He hadn’t meant it to sound like a joke, but he couldn’t blame her for laughing. No one believed him when he told them he had five girlfriends with a straight face and a normal tone. He wasn’t confident he knew how to convey the information. Should he pretend it was a big secret they forced out of him? Should he reveal it with shock and awe somehow? Should he not mention it until people discovered he was dating more than one girl?
Mindy looked over her shoulder at him as he returned to his desk. Ashley, another student worker, was at a desk near Mindy’s against Beth’s office wall. Arthur sat at his desk and, with a slight smile to Mindy, got to work.
He was only a few minutes in when he got an email. Beth had copied him on her email blast to the office workers announcing his promotion.
“Congrats, Boss.” Ashley piped up. “Guess we can call you that to your face now.”
“Yeah, congrats, Boss.” Mindy piped up, looking over at him with an eyebrow raised. They were both thinking the same thing: how does this impact us? They were, after all, fucking and dating one another before he became her boss. So should they talk to HR? Should one of them be transferred to a different office? Neither of them wanted that to happen, and if anyone looked at their work schedules, they’d take away their hour alone together and ruin their office fun, which would kill Mindy’s opportunities to live out her office sex fantasies.
Neither wanted that, but neither could talk about it openly with Ashley there. Both knew that even if they tried to keep it a secret from Beth, it was only a matter of time before the other students found out Mindy was one of Arthur’s five girlfriends, if some didn’t already know. The word spread around campus in rumors, truths, and speculations even as they sat there, thanks to the altercation between Mindy, Rani, and Sanjay in the Monday night cafeteria.
