“I know. I’m actually excited to get to work on the case. But don’t worry I don’t get to do anything too interesting, mainly research and stuff like that.”
It was the truth, when it came to Calvertino’s actual court case, I hadn’t gotten to help very much. The interview with Mrs. Anderson was really the most I had been involved with so far.
Most likely Ryan was trying to keep me away from the details of the case. He didn’t want me to find out what was really going on between him and Roberto.
“Be careful, Mr. King is pretty dangerous.”
I looked at Markus intrigued. I had never heard anyone refer to Ryan as dangerous.
“Do you mean Calvertino?” I asked.
“No, Mr. King has had many of his adversaries end up dead over the years. Geesh Jennifer do you know anything about the guy?”
“What are you talking about?”
“Did you know hear about what happened to his first business partner straight out of law school?”
I just stood there in silent shock as I looked at Markus. Why hadn’t anyone told me about this a long time before?
“His partner was stealing money from their firm and then mysteriously ended up dead in a car accident. They said the brake lines had been cut. Pretty sure Mr. King was under investigation, but they ended up pinning it on an ex-girlfriend of his.”
“Well, if it was the ex why would you say King was dangerous?”
“Oh, it wasn’t the ex. No one believed that for a minute. She confessed and is serving time, but her family mysteriously moved away to Italy and is living in a million dollar place on Lake Como.”
“Why haven’t I ever heard about this?”
Really? If all this had happened, why wasn’t it in the press more? I knew the media and they wouldn’t just let something like this slip by them without reporting on it constantly.
“King has money, Jennifer. People with money can quiet the press simply by doing something else cool. Remember a few years ago when King got that famous football player off for charges of murder?”
“Yeah, that was his biggest case ever.”
“The media just let everything else go and started to cover that case. Now he’s always out with celebrities and stuff and no one even talks about his past. They are too busy talking about the people he is hanging out with.”
I just sat there and pondered everything I had just learned. It was impossible to think of Ryan as someone who could murder anyone. The story couldn’t have been true. Ryan wasn’t an angry guy, but something deep down made me feel like it was true. I didn’t doubt the information that Markus had given me, something inside me felt like there was always more to Ryan and his past.
I needed to talk to Ryan. Not naked, not in his office and not where we could be overhead. Somehow I needed to get him alone and figure out if I should run as far away from this situation, or stay and try and help.
Ryan
She had no idea what she had gotten herself into. Roberto was in control and she just submitted to him like that. It was a delectable sight to see though, her smooth little ass bent over the table just waiting for me. Or perhaps she had really been waiting for Roberto?
She was mine now, that was very clear. Jennifer would do as I asked and not ask questions. This is exactly what I needed to move forward with the retrial. I knew he would try to control her and steal her from me, that was more appealing to him than me just handing her over. But it was just a game of cat and mouse and I certainly wasn’t going to be the mouse in the game. Roberto would eventually see that I held more power than he could have ever imagined.
Jennifer was the perfect accomplice for me. Whether she knew it or not, she was about to assist me on the greatest case ever. The publicity around this case would be insane and if I played my cards right; I would go down in history as the best lawyer ever.
If I didn’t play just the right angel for every aspect of the case though, I would end up disbarred and without a dime left to my name. Likely, I would also be put in prison, right along with Jennifer. I knew I should tell her more about what was going on, but I just couldn’t risk her defecting from the plan. I needed her for my plan to work and I would do absolutely anything necessary to keep her.
Not to mention, my body felt a need to be inside her every second I was near her. It would physically be impossible to give her up at this point. Instead, I’d have to convince her to stay.

Ryan
She had so willingly succumbed to having both Roberto and I, it was a thought that filled my head often. I had thought about having Jennifer in every way possible. The thoughts were just too much for me to handle at all. The second I thought about the things I wanted to do to Jennifer the thoughts would overwhelm my body. I wanted to see her submit to me in the bedroom or perhaps submit to me in our entire relationship.
Watching her body orgasm from our threesome was still very much on my mind. I needed to get Jennifer alone again, and soon. I wasn’t going to share her with Calvertino or anyone else. But I did need to talk to her more about the Calvertino case and if she had gotten any more leads that we needed to follow before the hearing in the morning.
As she knocked on my door for supervision I hated to turn her away, my body ached to be inside of her but I had to meet with a client first. As much as I wanted Jennifer to be my priority, my reputation, and my work was much more important. Although it certainly had not been important to Roberto when he forced me to be his attorney.
Leonard Odom was a million dollar basketball player who was in the midst of a nasty divorce. His wife had caught him in their bed with a transvestite prostitute. Needless to say, that information couldn’t get out to the public. The general public could forgive an affair, but they couldn’t forgive an affair with a transvestite. These were the type of cases that I took.
My retainer fee wasn’t to provide legal services for a divorce, no, no, no. My fee was so high because I could provide those divorce services while protecting their public persona from being devastated by insignificant information.
Whomever Leonard Odom slept with really had no bearing on his ability to play basketball. In my world, that meant the information didn’t need to come out to the public.
The public was always hungry for more and more information about people who were celebrities or sports players. Inevitably a tabloid paper always had just enough information to make up a story and not enough information to make up a true story.
Sure there would be some tabloids that ran with the story, but those tabloids always had outlandish stories that they wanted to sell the public. The real key was to ensure no reputable news stations decided to run with it. Reputable news stations would only run a story if there was a good source of the information, so my job was to make sure there wasn’t a good source.
I sent Jennifer away for an hour so Leonard and I could finish some much-needed damage control. After about a dozen phone calls and trading many favors, we had his transvestite on her way to Thailand. She was getting a beautiful penthouse and the surgery she desired to become transgendered and become a full-fledged female. It really was a win-win situation for everyone involved. Even the soon to be ex-wife was agreeable to keeping her mouth shut as long as her divorce settlement had enough zero’s attached to it.
Within an hour, I had secured a million dollar payment and saved my client his NBA reputation. Pretty good money for only an hour of work. I had become accustomed to getting those big jobs done rather quickly so I could move on to other things that were more interesting to
me.
When Jennifer returned, she looked impressed when she saw Leonard Odom sitting across from my desk. She flirted with him and I watched as she fidgeted with her skirt and blouse. If I had not rushed him out the door, I was positive he would have gotten her number and been calling her by the end of the day. Leonard didn’t discriminate at all; if he could fuck the person that was all that mattered to him. His wife filed for divorce after finding him with one person, but she had no idea of the dozens and dozens of other people he had slept with before getting caught. Certainly not any type of person I would allow Jennifer to sleep with.
The reality was, after seeing her with Calvertino, I didn’t think I wanted to have another threesome ever again. His dirty old man body was disgusting as he fucked her. It did look hot when she held onto me while we both thrust inside of her. I liked having her that close to me and I loved having her arms wrapped around my neck when she orgasmed.
She was mine, I didn’t need to share her and I wouldn’t allow her to be shared again. The memory of our threesome was steamy and strong in my mind but that’s where it would stay. No more threesomes with her.
Jennifer
It was the first time I had knocked on his door in a long time, but I heard voices in his office and that was unusual for nine o’clock in the morning. It sounded like Ryan was talking to a man and I didn’t recognize the other voice at all. It was a relief that it wasn’t Calvertino, because I certainly would recognize his voice if I heard it.
After Ryan had sent me away from his office, I took the time to actually get caught up on my homework. Surprisingly I had all my work done for classes, even though I was spending most of my days and nights with Ryan. It baffled me how some of my friends were so far behind on their projects when they didn’t spend nearly as much time with their advisor as I did.
Advisor, I laughed at the thought of calling him that.
It was really weird to think of Ryan as my advisor, at this point I felt like he was my boyfriend and our relationship was much more casual. But I figured while at school I should try to think of him as my advisor so I didn’t accidently mess up and say something wrong around other people.
When I returned to his office and he let me in, the first thing I saw was the tall, dark and handsome face of Leonard Odom. I wasn’t a basketball fan at all, but I certainly knew who he was. His face was all over sporting goods store advertisements and he had one of the most beautiful wife’s I had ever seen.
The look Leonard Odom gave to me was enticing as I sat down in the second chair across from Ryan. His big brown eyes looked at my thighs as he licked his lips. I was instantly soaked with a desire for the man. His celebrity made me want him; I really knew nothing else about the man. But I didn’t care.
I couldn’t sit still as my body reacted to the desire to have Leonard touch me. But I wasn’t in the habit of chasing after married men, so I pulled myself together and sat there as Ryan and Leonard said their goodbyes.
My mind couldn’t help but wonder why Leonard had hired Ryan. No matter what it was, if they didn’t want people to know about it; I would never know. Keeping secrets was one thing that Ryan was certainly very good at. He could keep a secret without even batting his eye at it. I was much worse at keeping secrets.
When Ryan closed his office door after Leonard left, I felt the heat from his body as his eyes stared at me. His desire to have me was evident, but I wasn’t in the mood. My whole body was still sore from taking on Ryan and Roberto Calvertino in our threesome event. I needed a break.
Quite frankly, Ryan needed a break also. He needed to know that I wasn’t going to just bow down to him every time he wanted to fuck me. Ryan was so used to being rich and powerful; he had forgotten what it was like when he couldn’t get his own way.
“Come here,” Ryan said as he leaned up against the conference table.
My mind raced back to all the times we had fucked on that table. He certainly knew just how to make me scream and his office was in the perfect location for all my screaming. I liked the feeling of having Ryan on the conference table; I just didn’t feel like I should give into my desires just yet.
Ryan’s office was one of the largest on campus and was far away from the other teachers in the hallway. I wondered if Ryan had strategically asked for this office. It certainly wasn’t the nicest; in fact it was in a part of the building that still had not been updated.
“I should get going,” I said as I grabbed my bag.
I didn’t really need to go anywhere; I had just gotten into his office. But I saw the look in his eyes and I knew if I didn’t leave now I would end up fucking him on that conference table. My willpower was very poor when it came to Ryan.
In general, throughout my life, my willpower had always been very bad. I couldn’t even avoid getting into trouble when I very clearly knew the rules while growing up. Now as an adult I didn’t have to worry about willpower most of time because I could just do whatever I wanted to do.
Ryan didn’t like my attempt to leave and he moved in toward me. His faced showed his disappointment in me and how I had tried to take control over him. Ryan didn’t like any type of control being taken away from him.
I took a deep breath; slowly I tried to calm my nerves. It always happened when Ryan had me alone, his desire for me got my heart pumping fast and I never could say no to him. I looked down at the ground to try and avoid eye contact with him. If I didn’t look into his deep brown eyes, then I would be able to resist; or so I thought.
“Jennifer, you aren’t going anywhere.”
“Yes, I forgot I need to get a paper done for class.”
“No, you will be staying here,” he stood in front of me and his hand moved down my face gently.
I continued to look at the ground, but it got harder and harder to avoid him. I had to leave right at that moment or I knew I would never have the willpower.
“I’m sorry, I have to leave.”
I moved away from Ryan and grabbed my bag and headed to his door. Just as I reached the door and had opened it, Ryan pushed the door closed. His body pressed up against mine and I felt the power of his desire as his cock pulsed against me.
My red hair dangled down around my breasts and Ryan pressed it out of his way so his lips could kiss me. His lips were like little pillows attached to his face and I wanted more and more of him.
When his lips touched my skin, I sighed deeply as I tried to contain my desire. I still wanted him, I could say yes at a moment’s notice. But I didn’t want him to have that power over me. I didn’t want him to be in control all the time, I had to resist him.
“Ryan, I have to go. When do you need me back to prepare for the trial?”
I used a firm tone and tried to keep my body as tight as possible. I didn’t touch him and I didn’t soften my gaze at all. Finally, he caved in and realized I really was going to leave.
“Tomorrow afternoon would be fine. We can go over the statements we have so far and get our game plan together. We only have a few more days before the trial so we need to make sure we also prep Roberto.”
“Alright, I’ll come to your office tomorrow after classes. Goodbye.”
I leaned up and let my lips touch his, and then I turned and left his office. I walked quickly down the hall and outside. Then I made my way back to my car and slumped into the driver's seat out of exhaustion.
Ryan was so direct in what he wanted all the time; it was exhausting to be around him. It was so hard not to cave into his desire for me. I could see why he had such a reputation with the women; there is no way a woman could refuse him once he decided he wanted her. Beyond his money, Ryan King was a very persuasive man who always got what he wanted. Well except on that day, I had just barely escaped him.
***
The next day I returned to Ryan’s office much more prepared to avoid his advances. My day away from him had built up my determination to let things cool off a little between us. Not because I didn’t like him, just because the threesome
had been so intense. I needed a break from both Ryan and Roberto. I needed to figure out what I really wanted out of all this.
Certainly Ryan didn’t want a relationship and Roberto was just a one-time thing. So why would I keep sleeping with Ryan when he didn’t want the same thing as I did? Because I wanted a relationship. I wanted a man to get to know and build our future together. Ryan wasn’t that type of man that was for sure.
As I walked into his office I saw the look in Ryan’s face, it was a mix of humor and amusement. I didn’t care, though; I wanted him to feel like he was out of place. I wanted Ryan and I didn’t mind spending the day together. I just wasn’t going to sleep with him during our day together.
Ryan was a good man and he certainly knew how to have a good time. But he didn’t do a very good job communicating with the people in his life. Or at the very least; Ryan did not communicative well with the people he worked with.
“What are you wearing?”
“What? This is just how I dress when I’m at home.”
Ryan let out a laugh as he stepped close to me. He grabbed me and carried me over to the conference table.
“I like it,” he said as he kissed me.
I was caught off guard by his reaction and totally unprepared.
My sweatpants and t-shirt outfit was supposed to have turned him off. It was my plan to keep him from trying to fuck me, but he didn’t seem to care. My body reacted and I kissed Ryan back, I just couldn’t stop myself.
As our lips moved and our tongues intertwined, I finally came back to my senses and pulled away. I stood there and looked at Ryan as I felt my desire for him build. I knew I had to get back to work, but it was impossibly hard to do when I was so distracted by him and his body.
“I think we have work to do,” I said as I smiled at him.
