“Why are you being so nice to me and my friends?” Alice looked at him suspiciously.

 

“I can’t be nice?” Oliver looked puzzled.

 

“No. You aren’t nice.” Alice stared at him.

 

“I’m not nice?” Oliver smiled at her dangerously. “Is that what you think?”

 

“No nice guy would advertise for a writing assistant and expect her to be his whore as well.” Alice squealed as he pushed her up against the wall and kissed her hard.

 

“Oh.” She looked at him breathlessly. His hard body was pushed up against hers and she noticed that he was wearing a nice suit. “Oh.” She stared back at him as he stared at her while running his hand up her legs. He pushed his hand between her thighs and reached up in between her legs to her moistness.

 

“Good girl.” He purred at her as he ran his fingers along her slick wetness.

 


What, what are you doing?
” She felt like she wanted to collapse. To
the ground and let him do whatever he wanted to her.

 

“I’m making sure you followed my orders.” He withdrew his fingers from her and smiled. “I see that you did.” He moved away from her and walked to his car.

 

“Hurry, we have somewhere to be.”

 

She ran behind him, annoyed that he had already upset her equilibrium. She wondered where they were going and if she would be out of place. She saw him waiting for her at the passenger side of his Mercedes. He held the door for her and she got in.

 

“Thanks,” she said meekly as she got into the car.

 

“I’m a nice guy sometimes Alice.” He smiled down at her as he closed the door and she felt a rush of warmth run through her body. She would never understand this man.

 

“Where are we going?” She questioned him as he got into his seat.

 

“Dinner.”

 

“But am I dressed appropriately?” She looked at his suit and then back at her trashy dress. He looked her up and down and laughed.

 

“You are dressed perfectly my dear. Quite perfect.”

 

“Would you like to listen to some music?” He asked her after they had been driving for a few minutes in silence.

 

“I’d rather talk, if you don’t mind?” Alice looked at him furtively, scared that he would be upset.

 

“Sure, what do you want to talk about?”

 

“The movie script we are writing. What’s it going to be about? It’s not a porno is it?” She said the last part hesitatingly, not wanting him to know how distasteful she found them
.

 

He burst out laughing. “No, my dear. No porno.”

“Well, what was that other scene for?” Alice was curious about the scene she had to rewrite.

 

“Oh, that’s from some cheap porno.” He laughed. “I just needed to make sure that you would be down for all parts of this arrangement.”

 

“Oh.” She nibbled her lip.

 

“What is it Alice?”

 

“Did you audition us all this way?” She spoke slowly trying to make sure her voice didn’t expose her jealousy.

 

“No. You were the only one.” He looked at her carefully. “Though it would have been nice to sample all of you.”

 

“I see.” Alice turned her face to look out of the car. She hated him and his comments. In one moment he could make her feel special and then in the next he made her feel like nothing more than a cheap toy.

 


The movie is going to be about a boy in an orphanage searching for his parents.” Oliver’s voice sounded soft.

 

Alice once again turned to him. “Oh, really?”

 

“Yeah.”

 

“How old is the boy?”

 

“8.”

 

“How long has he been at the orphanage?”

 

“Two weeks. He remembers being dropped off by is mother and 3 sisters. He can picture their faces vividly. All he wants to do is find them.”

 

“You seem to have a real idea of what you want already.” She looked at him questioning him.

 

“Yes, I’ve had a lot of time to think about it.” He spoke softly as if he were talking to someone else. “The mother will have long blond hair and glassy blue eyes. She’s happy when she is with her little boy but she thinks no one is watching, she cries and cries and cries.”

 

Alice stared at him and remained silent so he would keep talking.

 

“The boy, he’ll search for about 8 years. He never leaves the orphanage. He just waits and waits and waits but she never comes. And then one day when he is 16 and out in the town with some friends, he
sees’
her. All of a sudden he see’s her. And she sees him and they stare at each other. For what seems like a century but is no more than a few minutes and she walks on. She just turns around and walks on.”

 

“I’m so sorry Oliver.” Alice grabbed his shoulder and squeezed.
Everyone in the world knew that Oliver Park had no parents but
no one
knew about his childhood. It was this huge secret but this made sense. This made her understand him better.

 

“Sorry for what?” He turned and looked at her icily. “Get your hands off of me.”

 

Alice recoiled back into her seat at the anger and hatred in his eyes.

 

“Don’t forget your position Alice. You are not my girlfriend. You are not my friend. You are my assistant. Never forget your place.” He spoke quietly and with venom in his voice.

 

“Sorry.” She mumbled wanting to hit him. No wonder he made such a good actor, he was so melodramatic.

 

“Do I need to remind you of the proposition Alice?”

 

“No.”

 

“Unzip me.” He spoke while looking straight ahead.

 

“What?” She looked at him confused.

 

“Unzip my pants. Now.”

 

She reached over to him and unzipped his pants.

 

“Pull my cock out.” He barked.

 

“What?” She shivered with pleasure and shock.

 

“You heard me.”

 

She slowly reached into his pants and pulled his cock out through his boxer shorts.

 

“You know what do to next.” He spoke softly and looked her in the eyes as if to challenge her.

 

Alice stared at him and felt her hands moving up and down his length. He hardened within seconds and she felt a surge of power run through her. She adjusted her seatbelt and then bent her head into his lap, taking him into her mouth.

 

“Oh fuck, yes Alice.” Oliver moved his seat back a little bit so that she could have easier access. Alice bobbed up and down on his lap and took as much of him into her mouth as she could.

 

“Hurry up, we are nearly there.” Oliver barked out at her as he moaned. She sucked the tip of his cock hard and then bobbed up and down faster and faster. He was parking the car when he came and she felt his warm solution in her mouth.

 

“Lick it all up.” He grinned down at her. “I can’t afford to have anything on my new suit.” She licked him clean and swallowed. She was surprised at how much she enjoyed herself.

 

“Good girl.” He pulled her up from
his lap and kissed her roughly while squeezing her nipples. She moaned at his touch and unconsciously spread her legs. He reached in-between them and rubbed her clit before sticking two fingers into her. She knew he felt how wet she down there, She moaned as he fingered her and then withdrew his fingers.

 

“Sorry my dear. It’s time for us to go in.” He pulled back from her and opened his door and got out. He walked around to open her door as she adjusted her dress. He ran his hands over her hair as she got out of the car to smooth it out.

 

“Have I told you how sexy you are Alice?” His words sounded as smooth as silk but Alice still delighted in them.

 

“Thanks.” She smiled up at him knowing that she was on a crazy rollercoaster of a ride that may crash before she had time to get off of it.

Chapter 3

 

Oliver walked ahead of her and
she followed behind him trying to stay up right in her heels. He waited at the entrance and ushered her in.

 

“Keep up Alice.” He looked at her smugly and they made their ways into the restaurant. She had never been here
before;
it looked like a good ol boys club. The walls were made of wood paneling and the tables were spaced pretty far apart. The lights were also dimmed really low.

 

“What restaurant is this?” She inquired of him but he ignored her.

 

“My assistant and I are here to meet Maribel Gold.” Oliver spoke to the Maitre’D and followed him into one of the rooms. She followed behind him and paused at the entrance to the room as she saw Oliver walk up to the lady at the table, presumably Maribel and kiss her. She glowed as she kissed him back and Alice could see that she was extremely happy to see Oliver. She was also extremely beautiful: tall and blond and skinny.  Oliver held out her seat and then sat down. Alice just stood there watching them and feeling embarrassed.

 

“Alice come.” Oliver called her over to the table. Alice walked up slowly not sure what to do, there wasn’t another seat at the table and she wasn’t sure if she should go and look for one and bring it over.

 

“There’s no seat.” She looked at Oliver in confusion.

 

“You don’t need to sit.”

 

“Oh.”

 


Take our drink order.”

 

“What?” She stared at him as he gazed at her with no emotion in his eyes.

 

“I’ll have a sex-on-the-beach please.” Maribel giggled as she gave Alice her order.

 

“We can make that happen tonight if you want Maribel.” Blake smiled at her and rang his fingers up her arm.

 

“Oh Oliver, you devil.” Maribel giggled again and Alice fought the urge to slap her across the face.

 

“I’ll have a gin and tonic. Go and place the orders Alice.”

 

She looked at him blankly, not sure what sort of game he was playing. “What’s wrong with her Oliver? Is she mute?” Maribel spoke loudly while pointing at her.

“I’m not a mute. If you thought I was, why would you speak an order to me.” Alice spoke sharply to Maribel.

 

“Oh Oliver, who is this shrew? Get another waitress, I don’t like this one.”

 

“Excuse me a second Maribel.” Oliver got up and grabbed Alice’s arm and took her into another room that was unoccupied.

 

“What are you doing?” Alice screeched, though she was secretly happy that they were not in front of Maribel.

 

“No Alice, what are you doing? Why did you speak rudely to my date?” Oliver hissed at her.

 

“Maybe because she called me a mute and gave me her drink order like I was the help.”

 

“You are the help Alice.” He snarled at her.

 

“What are you talking about? I’ve never even been to this place before. I don’t work here.” Alice shouted at him.

 

“You are my assistant Alice. Remember I told you earlier that you will do any and everything I ask of you.”

 

She looked at him confused, “But I thought…”

 

He interrupted her. “You thought I only meant sexually? Oh Alice, I want a lot more from you than just your body. Sex, that I can get anywhere.” He looked at her in distaste and Alice bit her lip to fight the tears that were threatening to fall.

 

He walked away from her and said, “Go and get us our drinks and come back with two menus.”
