“I agree with you Dan, don’t worry, I’m not going to hurt you. If they didn’t pick me though, why him, that’s such a slap in my face. I really might go to a private security place. I mean it. One more time and I’m out of here.” She promised.
“Oh don’t say that, I’m sure sooner or later something good will come up and you’ll get it.” Dan tried to cheer her up.
“Well the Cap did say something about a new assignment for the mayor; he might be able to get me on it.” She informed him.
“Guard duty isn’t all that fun, but with the mayor it might be quite the challenge. You know he’s pissed off groups of people during his time in office.” Dan stated.
“Right, plus the fact that he is pretty sexy wouldn’t hurt either!” She commented.
“Oh look who’s being all sexist now. Plus he’s quite the playboy would you really want to be with him?” He laughed.
“I’m just saying what everyone else says. You have to admit even as a guy the mayor is sexy. Just because he’s sexy doesn’t mean I’ll fall into bed with him.” She laughed.
“Never will I admit another guy is sexy. Maybe he is good looking, but sexy, never. I can’t see you even going near him with the amount of women he’s been connected with.” Dan laughed.
“That Spanish heritage sure has helped his looks a lot. I tell you what just give me two minutes in a room looking at him and I’d be happy. I didn’t say I would sleep with him, but maybe, you never know!” She commented.
“Sounds like someone might have a bit of a crush on the mayor.” He said.
“I just appreciate men who are good looking. Why do you think I still talk to you all the time?” She stated.
“But you didn’t say I was sexy, just good looking, there is a difference!” He stated.
“Dan you know we just aren’t good as a couple. But you are a really great friend.” She stated.
“I know it just sucks being stuck in the friend zone.” He admitted.
Lalena shook her head, she didn’t have to have this conversation with him often, but sometimes it was such a pain. “I’m sorry Dan, but we tried and you know it just wasn’t something that was going to work.” She commented.
“I would have changed to please you. I swear no one would ever love you as much as I do.” Dan said.
“Please Dan; let’s not do this, not today. It’s been a really bad day for me so far, and I just don’t want any more drama.” She pleaded.
“Fine, we don’t have to do it now. But you still owe me the time to give my side of the argument.” He added.
“Some other day, okay?” She said.
He shook his head and finally said, “Yeah that’s fine. Sorry about the job.” He said and went back to his paper work.
Lalena was happy that he let it go so easily. Perhaps it was the look on her face that warned him, she wasn’t sure, but it was nice nonetheless.
She hoped that the Captain would come through on the other assignment and that it might be soon. At least if she was out of the precinct Dan wouldn’t see her all the time, and that distance might do him some good.
Chapter 2
Mayor Rico Zess looked into his mirror and straightened his tie. He was getting ready for another big dinner in his honor. “It’s tough being the big guy in a town!” He chuckled to no one else. He was the quintessential playboy; he always had a new girl on his arm wherever he went.
He thought through his list of escorts and wondered who would give the perfect statement on his arm tonight. “I think I’ll go with Jasmine, she’s the exotic sort!” He rubbed his chin and thought.
“Sally, pull up the list with pics on my computer for me please.” He yelled out to the other room. Sally was his secretary, the one person who controlled the hub of details for everything. He was lucky she was a cousin of his, or she might make problems for him.
“Tonight is the cancer dinner presentation award for your support. You want to have an attractive girl who is intelligent. Someone if asked a question won’t make you look as if you are simply screwing a blonde bimbo.” Sally told him through the door.
“Do we have any on the list that will work?” He asked her.
“I’m looking right now. Just give me a second.” Sally yelled back at him.
Rico combed through his hair with his fingers. He smiled and checked to make sure no food was in between his teeth. He was very proud of the way he looked, and he knew he was sexy. Many women had thrown themselves at him in the past, once he became mayor, it had been even worse. Not that he minded having different women on his arm; he didn’t want to settle down.
His life was full of sex, power and money, three things he loved. He had even dabbled with drugs here and there, simply because they were handed to him. Who was he to pass up something that was put in his way, as a gift? That was how the list of women had been made in the first place. Each girl on the list he had been with before, and they had been special in one way or another. Usually it had to do with their sexual expertise, but there were a few who were on the list for other reasons. Though honestly, he wasn’t sure how many there were. That was Sally’s area of expertise!
“I think Janesa is a good choice.” Sally came around the corner and said. “She’s the one you went with to, that one event two months back. It’s been long enough so she won’t get the wrong idea either.” Sally stated.
“Which one was she? There have been a few who’ve gotten the wrong idea, thought I was going to make them my wife, as if!” He laughed.
“She is the one with the long black hair, those dimples on the cheeks, beautiful smile.” Sally stated.
“So you’ve hit on her?” Rico asked.
“I’ve slept with her a few times, but nothing serious!” Sally laughed. “You know I’m just like you cousin, I love my freedom and fun!”
He laughed hard. “That’s why I hired you, you’re just like me and you understand me! So tell me more about Janesa and why you feel she’s the right choice. Or is it simply because you hope to get a piece of ass from her tomorrow?” He asked.
“Well maybe a little bit, but mostly because she is kind of smart. She’ll be able to answer something intelligently if need be, and you won’t seem like you only date airheads.” Sally commented.
“I don’t just date airheads. In fact I don’t date anyone really; I strictly try to stay with one night stands. When you get more dates than 5 in a row some women swear they are your next wife.” Rico said.
“I know, but pick Janesa; I’ll call her if you want me too.” Sally answered.
“Sure tell her to be ready at 6:30 sharp; we’ll swing by in the limo. I take it you’ll be coming along too?” He asked her.
“I was thinking about it. If you happen to find another woman at the event and want to leave Janesa alone with me, feel free to do just that.” Sally told him.
“Alright I just might do that, though it might look a little bad in the press to come with one and leave with another one.” He rubbed his chin wondering of the repercussions.
“You’ve done it before; all it does is adding to your playboy appeal. You’re top in the polls among single women and men. They love you right now!” Sally reminded him.
“But I’m taking a bit of a beating in other areas. I don’t think those boys on the north side are too happy about those new business taxes. Have you set up that security detail to cover me, just in case?” He asked her.
“I’m working on it. We’ll have the officer’s assigned later on in the week. We are trying to make sure none of the one’s that we get have connections to those “businessmen”. Otherwise your security detail will be the one that gets you.” Sally told him.
“Well just get me the best you can find, you can figure out the logistics of it. I think I’ll go and grab lunch, do you need anything?” He asked.
“No I’ll set up Janesa for tonight.” Sally said as he left the office.
Rico strutted out to the restaurant next to his office. The girls in there
always flirted with him, and he did his best to make sure he gave them all attention.
“Hey honey, I’ll take my usual.” He told the little brown haired waitress who came up to his table.
She smiled at him broadly and walked off with a swing of her hips. They weren’t dumb in this restaurant, the more they flaunted in front of him, and the larger their tips were usually. Sometimes he would take one of them in the back room and let them suck on him. He knew it wasn’t really a smart thing to do, but honestly it felt too good for him to stop it! He studied the waitress as she walked away and thought maybe he’d let her slob a bit on his knob today!
Chapter 3
Lalena headed out of the precinct for her shift. As she was going through the doors she ran into Jackson. He smiled at her broadly. “Hey I hear you should congratulate me!” He laughed.
“I would if I thought you deserve it.” She sneered at him.
“Oh is that any way to be with your fellow officer who is just moving up?” He asked, playing the hurt face all too well.
“Jackson, you know as well as I do that you didn’t deserve the promotion. But when you mess up, I’ll try again and this time I’ll get it.” She said lowly as she moved closer to him.
“Be careful you get too close people will think your hitting on me and trying to move up. Don’t want everyone to see you rubbing those breasts on me now do we.” Jackson said and stared at her ample chest freely. “I would love to see them though, tell you what you show them to me and I’ll get you on my team.” He offered.
“Fuck you Jackson; I don’t need to do that to move up in the precinct.” Lalena stated.
“I don’t know seems like you’ve been stuck in the same position for some time now, you might want to think about it.” He stated.
She walked away before she punched him. It wasn’t worth talking to him; he was a Neanderthal among humans. “Good luck not fucking up that new position.” She yelled over her shoulder as she walked out the door.
Lalena could hear him muttering something as she left, but she didn’t care about it. She really wanted to get out of the office right now. Maybe she would stop by and see a few friends later on that night. It could help her cheer up quite a bit. Then she remembered she was assigned to be security at the cancer event. “Shit, guess this day just keeps getting better and better.”
These events were a pain to work, you had to wear your dress blues and look all dressed up. However, if something popped off you also had to be able to move. Dress blues weren’t the most comfortable things in the world, and they definitely weren’t great to run in, or do much else.
She had to go home and check to make sure her blues were ready for the night. Lalena wanted this day to end, to be able to go home and grab a cold brew and just relax. Maybe talk to a few friends online or on the phone, she wasn’t sure. But definitely her idea of relaxing was not being security for the cancer event. In past years they had hired private teams, but not this year, she wasn’t sure why. Maybe it had something to do with the mayor and all the uproar in the underground mob arena. He had imposed some pretty strict taxes that had hurt a lot of people who didn’t like it. They had some power, maybe a lot more than anyone knew, and they would use it.
Though perhaps there was more to the story than the press was saying. Because she would think that if he had pissed the mob off too much he would be dead by now. So maybe it was all just ways for the good mayor to grab more press time.
There had been a joke when the mayor was first elected, and honestly it fit him. His name was Rico Zess, but many of the papers had called him Rico Suave. After the popular 80’s one hit wonder sexy Spanish singer. Lalena had to admit that he was pure sexiness for sure.
She hadn’t been joking when she said she would love just a few minutes with him in a room. There was something charismatic about him that drew females and males alike to him. Maybe that was the only real reason he was still alive, he had some connections among those mobsters who thought he was too important to knock off.
She didn’t really care honestly; maybe the only good thing about tonight was to see the mayor and maybe something else. Where the mayor was usually something would happen that was unusual.
Laughing she remembered the one time that a date of his had supposedly been married. The mayor claimed to have no idea about it, but when her husband showed up at the event, it had been quite the show. The husband had pulled a gun on the mayor and threatened to use it on him. Claimed the mayor had ruined his marriage by going out with his wife several times.
The press had dug up the story and had found out that the woman had claimed to be separated when first asked out by the mayor. He hadn’t seen her but maybe two times in a few months though. The husband was unstable and was placed in a psychiatric hospital for evaluation.
“That’s what we call the problems of being a playboy.” She laughed. “I wonder how good he is, why do all these women want to be with him?” It had made her wonder more than one time. Besides the sexy look that he possessed, there must be more under it. Lalena would love to know if he was the Spanish lover that he came across as in pictures and stories.
Her shift was slow and she barely made it home in time to get ready for her security detail that night. Thankfully her blues were clean and she simply took a shower and dressed. Lalena walked out of the door upset she was going, but at least it would hopefully keep her mind off the rest of the day.
Distraction was always something she had used to keep sad feelings at bay in the past. Tonight she needed the distraction of this cancer event to make her forget about Jackson and all of the other bullshit that had taken place today.
She walked out the door running late and hoping she didn’t get in trouble when she got to the convention center.
Lalena got there with barely enough time before the event began. She got a look from the lieutenant that was in charge, but at least he didn’t make any comments to her. She might have said something to him about this. She had after all actually volunteered for this night, right now she had no clue why, but the fact was it had been her choice.
She stood around and watched the people who walked in the door. She was looking for anyone who looked a little suspicious or acting too nervous. It was one of the classic signs that they were up to no good.
As she watched the people filter in she noticed the mayor. He was looking stunning in a white suite that made his dark skin tone stand out even more. On his arm was a beautiful dark haired goddess. Lalena knew she was good looking, but compared to that woman she was nothing. She immediately felt inadequate for even having the thoughts of the mayor at that moment. If he choose women who looked like that she would never even be recognized by him.
As the couple walked past the mayor looked at her and smiled.
“Good evening sir, I hope you’re having a great evening.” She commented. Lalena was shocked when he stopped in front of her.
“How long have you been on the force?” He asked her.
“I’ve been on the force for 10 years now.” She answered.
“I would think a 10 year veteran wouldn’t be here, did you do something to make your superiors put you on duty tonight?” He questioned her, his eyes studying her closely.
“No sir, I didn’t do anything, I volunteered.” She stated.
He leaned in closer to her, “Your middle button has come undone and I can see your red bra underneath your shirt.” He whispered into her ear.
Her mouth flew open and she looked down in shock only to find that he had been joking. Lalena took a deep breath in and thanked the universe that it wasn’t true.
“I’m sorry I couldn’t resist you looked far too serious.” He laughed and began to walk away.
“It was funny, thanks for giving me a heart attack.” Lalena said.
The mayor turned around and came back to her. “So now I know you have a red bra on, I wouldn’t mind seeing it one day.” He whispered to her.
Lalena’s face had to be bright red a
s he walked away from her again. Her mouth was hanging wide open and she had to admit she was quite excited by his comments. She had to go to the bathroom and compose herself after the scene.
She had noticed that the mayor’s date had been busy talking to his secretary the whole time he had been talking to her. “What if I was on the team to protect him? Would he undress me and see what color bra I had on every day?” She could feel her pussy get moist at the thought of his hands touching her body.
Lalena had to shake it off though and get back to work. She wondered if the mayor would approach her again tonight or not. In a way she hoped in did, but part of her wanted to avoid it as well. There was definitely no future in aligning herself with a playboy who switched women more than people did their clothes.
Chapter 4
Rico had spotted the good looking blonde cop as soon as he stepped out of the limo. He didn’t remember ever seeing her at another event. She must be new, so he approached her to ask her how long she’d been on the force. He had been shocked by her reply of ten years.
But what he would remember the whole night was how red her face had gotten when he had told her, “your shirt is open I can see your red bra under your shirt.” The shocked look on her face had been priceless.
He wasn’t sure why he had done it. He loved joking with people. But it had been true when he had said he’d like to see if she really did have a red bra on under her shirt. His mind kept going back to her the whole night too.
She had a classic beauty to her. Not a model for sure, but someone who would produce the most amazing children from her womb. Plus she would be a woman who he guessed would age gracefully too. Her looks would always be there, and she would be someone that a person wouldn’t get tired of looking at. There weren’t many people in the world like her either.
Janesa was pretty much up Sally’s ass the whole time anyway, so why shouldn’t he have some fun too. He had a feeling that tonight he wouldn’t be getting anything, but Sally would be knee deep in Janesa later on.
