“Do you have a man in your life?” Carter asked.
Olivia paused before answering the question. She was single and had been single for a long time. She hated talking about her dating life with friends and family. That was bad enough. She never imagined that she would have to talk about something so personal with her boss.
She was too flustered too answer. Her eyes bounced around the room. She appeared to be looking, at least subconsciously, for an escape. None was forthcoming and she knew it. She would either have to answer the prying personal question or face the consequences.
For a moment, Carter’s face appeared to soften. Maybe a warm, empathetic thought was passing through his mind. Or maybe he was just setting her up for further humiliation.
The imperious boss sat back down in his chair. He locked his fingers in front of his face and sighed.
“I don’t mean to be intrusive,” he said. “But there are certain things that I must know before I proceed any further. Some of these things may make you uncomfortable or embarrassed. But that’s not my problem. You choose to work at this law firm. And no one ever told you that it was going to be easy.”
Olivia felt like saying something smart and biting in response. But she knew that would be akin to suicide. There was no way that Carter would tolerate any sort of resistance from employees. He was making it clear that he expected one hundred percent cooperation, one hundred percent of the time. Any sort of insubordination would be severely punished.
Despite how important she knew obedience was if she wanted to keep this job, something in her revolted. She couldn’t bring herself to answer the question. She didn’t want to play this game any longer. She considered getting up and leaving the office and never coming back again. If she could get hired here, then plenty of other law firms would be willing to give her an opportunity to prove herself. And that’s all she wanted. She didn’t want to be treated differently. She wanted to be treated fairly, like everyone else.
So why did she stay? She wouldn’t have been able to explain it herself. But she felt all sorts of contradictions surging within her. She had a desire to be treated like everyone else. Yet the idea that she was being singled out for a special kind of treatment—whether that treatment was good or bad—was extremely exciting to her.
She wouldn’t have been able to explain it like that, though. She could feel the mix of emotions swelling within her.
She swallowed hard. “Whatever you want, Sir.”
“You might not have heard, but I’m looking for a woman to mother my firstborn child. And I'm not just looking for any woman. I'm looking for a woman who’s demonstrated her willingness to be obedient and submissive. Do you think that you could handle that enormous responsibility?”
Olivia wasn't sure what she’d just heard. Could he be serious? She couldn't get any words out of her throat so she nodded her head up and down.
“Good. Very good.”
Carter got up from his chair and slowly walked around his desk. He kept his eyes on Olivia the whole time. His eyes bore a hole through her skull. She’d never experienced such an intense stare.
He stopped walking suddenly and looked down at his shoes. “Look at that,” he said with his hands on his hips. “My shoelace came undone.”
The handsome devil stared directly at Olivia. His eyes were full of mischief. She had a feeling that he had something planned, something that would push her even further. “I’m a little clumsy like that sometimes,” Carter said. “But it can be very dangerous don’t you think? Walking around with untied shoelaces?”
She remained silent. She didn’t know why he was talking about his shoelaces. All he had to do was bend over and tie them.
“You wouldn’t mind tying them for me would you?”
A moment of silent tension passed without either of them saying anything. Then Olivia smiled and began laughing. She was sure that he was kidding. There was no way that he was really asking her to tie his shoes. Who did he think he was? Who did he think she was?
“That doesn’t offend you does it?” Carter asked.
The smile slowly disappeared from Olivia's face and her laughter died out. It was clear to her that he was serious. He really expected her to tie his shoes.
“Sir Carter, are you serious?”
“Do you think I have time to play games and tell jokes?”
“No, Sir, I was just thinking—”
“Well, stop thinking and obey. That’s the problem with you newbies. Think you know it all. You’re not willing to start at the bottom. You expect to be treated like you’ve been working here for twenty years right from the start.”
“I’m sorry, Sir Carter. I’m very sorry. I’ll do whatever you want.”
“On your knees!” Carter barked.
Without thinking about what she was doing, she got down on her knees on the carpet.
She reached out for Carter’s shoes but he pulled his foot back. “Did I tell you to touch me?” he asked.
Olivia swallowed hard and shook her head no.
There was a knock at the office door. Fear and apprehension wracked Olivia’s body. There was no way that he would open the door. There was no way that he would allow another employee to see her in this humiliating position. If he did that, how would she be able to go back out there and face her colleagues? She would be the laughing stock of the office. He couldn’t make her go through with this. He couldn’t. It was just too cruel.

“Come in,” Carter said.
Olivia was on all fours on the carpet.
She could feel two sets of eyes staring down at her. “Janet, you’ve met Olivia haven’t you?” Carter said.
“Yes, Mr. Carter she’s been very good so far,” Janet, another one of the paralegal’s, said.
“I’m just teaching her how we do things around here. She got her J.D. at Boston University. I have to make sure that she’s not bringing a lot of ego into the office. Those types of employees never work out. Don’t you agree?”
“Yes, Mr. Carter. Obedience and loyalty are a big part of working at this firm.”
“Yes, they are, Janet. Yes, they are. Just put those files on my desk and then you can leave.”
Olivia couldn’t believe what her boss was putting her through. And she didn’t want to imagine what would be coming next. She figured that things would only get worse.
“I’m waiting,” Carter said.
Olivia reached out for the untied shoelace and began trying to tie it. But she couldn’t. Her hands were shaking and she couldn’t steady them. Actually, her whole body was shaking. She took several deep breaths and attempted to calm herself but nothing seemed to be working.
“I’m running out of patience.”
Fear shook her body. Her hands were still shaking but she managed to get the shoelace retied. She breathed a huge sigh relief and waited on all fours.
Carter walked back behind his desk and sat down. Olivia remained in the doggy style position for several minutes.
“Get off the floor and into the seat.”
She quickly got off her knees and slid back into the chair. Her whole body felt hot. Sweat dripped down her forehead. She feared that she wouldn’t be able to put up with much more of this type of treatment. She feared that she was coming close to her breaking point.
Carter stared at her with a look of superiority.
“Now get out of my sight and finish those briefs. I expect you to stay well after five o’clock today. I hope you don’t have any plans for tonight.”
“But Sir Carter, I will be finished before five. I promise I will.”
“Did you hear what I said?”
“Yes, Sir, but—”
“Get out of here. Now!”
Olivia hopped out of the chair and hurried from the office. She gently closed the door and walked with her head down between the office cubicles. She tried not to make eye contact with anyone. But she could feel several pairs of eyes on her. And she could hear the whispers coming
from all corners of the office. Everyone was talking about her. She knew it.
Her face had turned red with embarrassment and shame. Never before had she been through such an ordeal. Nothing in her life had prepared her for this.
What kind of law firm had she joined? What kind of boss had she chosen?
She had a strong urge to call her mother. That’s the only person who would be able to comfort her right now. It was her mother who had been able to convince her to stay in law school when Olivia had seriously considered leaving. That was during her first semester. She was overwhelmed by the workload and she couldn’t believe how competitive and cutthroat her classmates were.
She’d expected to find friends and camaraderie at law school. But instead, all she had encountered were enemies. People were willing to stab each other in the back for the slightest advantage. She wasn’t that sort of person and she knew that she never would be. She’d ended up spending lots of time alone. And she spent many nights that first year talking, crying, and seeking solace and comfort on the phone with her mother.
Eventually, Olivia adapted to the hyper-competitive atmosphere and during her second year, she even began to form friendships with other like-minded students.
As five o’clock approached, people in the office began wrapping up their work. Olivia had finished all her briefs but she was afraid to take them into Carter’s office. Maybe he’ll forget about me, she hoped. Maybe he was just threatening me to find out how I’d react, she told herself.
Despite how hard she tried to convince herself that everything was going to work out for the best, fear and doubt rattled her brain.
Over the next twenty minutes, the office began slowly emptying out. Olivia kept her head down and eyes focused on the papers in front of her. But out of the corner of her eye, she could see that people were sneaking glances at her and whispering to each other.
She desperately needed to find out if other employees had been put through similar trials. Did everyone have to suffer through these same tests of loyalty and obedience? What did crawling on the floor and tying shoes have to do with being a valuable employee? None of this made any sense to her. She felt like screaming.
She would have loved to take a long run in Central Park. That’s exactly what she needed. Intense physical exercise had always helped her get through difficult emotional situations in the past. And she knew that it would help her get through this as well. But she wouldn’t have a chance to run today, if Carter kept her in the office well into the night.
She half stood up and peeked over the walls of her cubicle. The room was completely empty. A sinking feeling invaded her stomach. She felt nauseous again.
The door to Carter’s office opened. She was afraid to look up but she could clearly hear him walking towards her. She began trembling. She looked at her hands. They were shaking. She hid them under the desk and pushed them between her legs.

“Did you finish what you were supposed to?” Carter asked, standing over her.
“Yes, Sir Carter. Is there anything else that you need done?”
“There’s a lot I need done. Too much to even tell you.”
She waited anxiously for his next command.
“But I think that will be all for today,” he said. “I’m feeling much better about you as an employee than I did this morning.”
Olivia felt relieved when she heard that. But she was still confused. Why had he doubted her in the morning? Did he have these doubts when he hired her? She decided it would be best to keep those questions to herself. She would go about trying to get some answers in the most discrete way possible.
“Thank you Sir Carter,” she said.
“Yes, Olivia. You’ll have plenty of time to thank me as long as you’re working here. I’m sure about that.”
Olivia looked up at her boss. He was staring at her with a devilish grin.
“Oh, one more thing,” Carter said.
Olivia held her breath.
“Have you ever been tied up?” He asked.
A look of confusion passed over Olivia’s face.
“Bondage. Ropes. Cords. Handcuffs. Has anyone ever bound you?”
“No, Sir Carter. No.”
Carter threw his head back and laughed. “That’s good. That’s very good. I’m sure you’ll like it.”
The wickedly handsome boss turned his back on Olivia and walked to his office.
His last words echoed in Olivia’s head. Her body shook as she contemplated what exactly he meant.
*****
Olivia gripped the sides of the chair. Her body had completely tensed up. There was no way for her to escape and deep down she didn’t want to.
Carter held the silver handcuffs in front of his face and smiled. He waved them in the air, taunting Olivia. She swallowed hard and tried to speak but no words came out.
“I’ve come to a decision,” Carter said, swinging the handcuffs back and forth.
“A decision, Sir?”
“Yes, if you can pass this next test, then you will be my chosen submissive. The woman who will carry my firstborn.”
Olivia’s eyes opened wide. An electric sensation shot through her body.
“Have you ever been handcuffed?” he asked, then smiled mischievously. Olivia shook her head no. She could feel her whole body breaking out in sweat.
“Well, there’s a first for everything,” Carter said. “Isn’t that right?”
Olivia nodded. Carter looked her up and down, enjoying the spectacle of her fear. Olivia wondered where this encounter would lead. How far would he push her this time? How much longer would she be able to endure this rough treatment?
“Get down on your knees,” Carter commanded.
Olivia hesitated, then leaned back in the chair as Carter approached her.
“Are you disobeying me, Olivia?”
The frightened young woman quickly got out of the chair and onto her knees. She had never felt so vulnerable, but she knew that things were only going to get worse. She was overcome by tension and anxiety.
Carter towered over her, staring intensely into her eyes.
“Put your hands behind your back,” he said. “And keep your mouth shut.”
Olivia did as he commanded. There was no point trying to fight back now. She was captive to his whims. She enjoyed the feeling of helplessness.
Carter’s green eyes bored into her skull. He was in complete control. It was like he could read her thoughts. He unlocked the handcuffs and told her to stand up.
Olivia stood up and looked deeply into his eyes. Without saying anything, she wanted to communicate her total submission to him.
“Now put your hands on my desk and spread your legs,” Carter said. “I’m going to have to do a thorough body check.”
The young woman obeyed, bending over and putting her hands on the desk but that wasn’t good enough for Carter.
“Spread your legs more,” he said, positioning himself behind her. Olivia could feel his breath on her neck. He nibbled on her ear and sighed deeply. Olivia felt the hard bulge coming through his pants.
“You’ll never forget me, will you?” Carter said.
“No, Sir Carter I won’t. I promise I will never forget you.”
“I don’t need your promises. All I want is your submission, your complete submission to me. Is that understood?”
“Yes, Sir Carter. I am your submissive bitch. Do whatever you want to me. I’m begging you. Please.”
“That’s better,” the dominating boss said. “Much better.”
Carter lifted up Olivia’s skirt. She began trembling. His fingers tickled the insides of her thighs. Electric sparks shot through her body. Her panties dampened.
Carter pressed a finger into her wet pussy. Olivia threw her head back and sighed. She loved the feeling of him inside of her, even if it was only his fingers.
“You like the feel of my fingers inside of you?” Carter asked.
Olivia moaned her response. She wasn�
��t capable of forming words. Her whole body had been taken over by an ecstatic sensation. She tingled with excitement. Her domineering boss shoved his fingers deeper into her pussy and then he wrapped a hand around her neck. She was his captive, his submissive bitch.
All she could think about was having his cock inside of her. His fingers clenched tighter on her neck.
“Yes, please,” she cried. “Please fuck me, Sir Carter.”
Carter smiled and forcefully turned Olivia’s head around. He stared at her with lust and domination. Olivia couldn’t help but shiver when he looked at her like that. In those moments he embodied everything that she had ever wanted from a man.
She’d always wanted someone that would be able to put her in her place and at the same time to make her feel protected from the world. She began to think that Carter could be that man, the man she had been waiting for all her life.
Carter, inflamed with lust, put the silver cuffs on Olivia’s wrists. The metal dug into her flesh and made her grimace. She had never been handcuffed before. She had never felt so vulnerable in front of a man.
“Do you like the feel of the handcuffs?” Carter asked. “Do you like knowing that I am in complete control of you?”
“Yes, Sir Carter. Do whatever you want to me. I won’t resist you.”
“You’re damn right, you won’t resist,” Carter said menacingly.
He gripped the back of Olivia’s neck and pushed her down toward the desk. She could feel his fingernails digging into her flesh. The pain only excited her that much more.
He was treating her like his submissive whore. She realized that she had been especially chosen for this position. Suddenly a feeling of pride and vanity flooded her body. She was in a position of privilege. None of the other women in the office had been singled out for this type of treatment She was special.
Carter unzipped his pants and fished into his boxers for his dick. He pulled out his long, thick cock and rubbed it on Olivia’s wet pussy lips. She moaned with pleasure and desire. She needed to feel him pushing inside of her, pumping a huge load into her pussy. She felt like some animal spirit was taking control of her. She wanted to cry out for his cock. She wanted to beg and plead and make so much noise that everyone in the office could hear her. But she managed to contain herself. Her entire body was covered in sweat and her breathing had quickened.
