Chapter 12

The nightmare continued for KathyWard. The weekend had been truly horrible with her condo, usually a place of refuge, turned into a prison. Jeremy had stayed the entire weekend, using the threat of disclosure to make her fuck him anytime and anyway he wanted.

“After all, what are best friends for?” he would ask each time she was forced to strip naked and make out with him. And Jeremy proved inexhaustible. By Monday morning, when the beautiful blond crawled out of bed, and got ready for work, she was relieved to get away from his incessant demands. As she stared with anger down at the rumpled bed where Jeremy still lay dead to the world, she thought about making him that way, permanently. It would so easy to grab a belt and strangle the little bastard in his sleep but then she decided she couldn’t do it, at least not right now. She had to formulate a plan first to make sure his death was either ruled an accident or an unsolved cold case. In the meantime she would just to have put up with his assaults. At least she’d be safe at work. He wouldn’t dare to try anything there. Would he? Kathy looked down at his sleeping body and wondered. After the weekend he put her through, she wouldn’t put anything past him.

Jeremy took advantage of his control over his boss by ambling into the bank an hour late for work. Kathy watched him through her office window, acting as if he owned the place. Surely he wasn’t going to try that on her. Was he? It would put her in a perilous position because as bank manager she was expected to do something about his tardiness. That was unacceptable and something she had never tolerated before. She wondered what she should do. Giving him a good reprimand in front of all the staff would certainly relieve some of the frustrations she felt. But would he retaliate when they were alone in her condo tonight? Good question. So it’s best to be careful.

Kathy compromised. Instead of giving Jeremy a good dressing down in front of the staff, she marched imperiously out of her office straight to Jeremy. It was good show. It showed her staff she meant business as she pointed at her office door.

“Get in there, right this instant. There’s something we got to talk about, mainly your being late for work. You should know by now that’s something that’s not tolerated in this bank, without a reasonable excuse.” Kathy reprimanded Jeremy like an errant child. Looking crestfallen and without a word he followed Kathy into her office.

As soon as her office door was closed, Jeremy’s face broke into a grin. “Good move,” he said in that voice that so irritated Kathy. “Now that we are all alone, I got a favor to ask of you. After all, we are still best friends, aren’t we?

Oh, no surely he’s not going to want me to do something in here surrounded by the staff. Even if I closed the blinds one of them could knock on the door without warning with an urgent problem to be solved, Kathy fumed as she nodded slowly in agreement. Somehow, someway I’ll find a way out of this predicament, she vowed.

Jeremy snickered at the apprehension in Kathy’s face. He had her so fucking scared she probably would drop her panties and let him fuck her right on her desk. An interesting idea that would further embarrass and shame her, but not now, maybe later. Right now he wanted something else. He recalled how Billy had set up cameras in Keisha’s apartment to make the movies which allowed him even greater control of the bronze skinned beauty.

“Relax,” he told Kathy. “I’ve had enough of your tight pussy over the weekend to last me at least until tonight. But in the meantime, I was wondering if you could loan me some money. There’s something I need that’s really important and I was thinking since we’re best friends and all ... he trailed off.

A relieved Kathy eagerly nodded. At least it wasn’t more sex. Giving the little SOB money was easy compared to what he had demanded of her.

“Sure, how much?” She reached for her purse and counted out several hundred dollars in cash, enough for Jeremy to buy the high definition cameras. “What’s it for?” Kathy asked as she put the bills in his outstretched hand.
