Chapter 3

 

Michelle splashed water on her face as she looked at her watch, the time was nearing to 8pm. She looked into the mirror in the bathroom and sighed longingly. “It’s only 3 years… you’ve come this far girl, you can wait a little longer.”

She went to leave the house but could hear the sound of two men talking in lowered voices. She crept up carefully to the room, smelling the faint aroma of cigars. The door was slightly ajar and so she listened.

“Reason I’ve called you aside David is to discuss your future with the company… How would you like to take over the reins?” John smiled proudly.

“Um, well, this is a surprise I thought Michelle?” David stumbled his words.

John sighed lowly. “Yes I know… Michelle helped get this company to where it is today... but now the company needs to move into the future. Quite frankly I trained Michelle too much in my image. You see David the company doesn’t need another me, and Michelle is too stuck in my ways to move with the changing dynamics of the business world.”

“Well I agree John your company isn’t moving forward, and in fact I believe it has stagnated.” David gestured with his hand.

“Yes which is why I’ve decided to stay on for the time being, only for a few years while you get the hang of things.” John spoke lowly as he put his hand on David’s shoulder 

“Does Michelle...?” David asked shortly.

“No… not yet. I’m going to tell her first thing on Monday.” John sighed again.

“I doubt she will take it well.” David knew what kind of woman Michelle could be if someone crossed her.


“Well you let me worry about that. I can convince her it’s what’s best for the company. She will take it in her own stride and move on.” Explained the gray-haired CEO as he took a sip of whiskey.

“And if she doesn’t?” David’s eyebrows raised. 

John growled. “Yes sometimes she just needs to be reminded who actually owns the company. If she really doesn’t like it then I will ask her to reconsider her future with my company.”

Michelle could feel the anger boiling to the surface, her face contorted in pain. Tears stung her face as she backed away from the door. Turning in her haste to leave she bumped into someone.

“Michelle?” Called Kate but got no response as the woman hurried off.

“Hey what’s wrong?” Kate quickly grabbed Michelle’s arm, pulled her into her bedroom and closed the door behind them.

“Michelle talk to me.” Urged Kate, seeing tears in Michelle’s wet hazel eyes as she took both of her hands into hers.

Michelle pulled away and grunted. “After all these years... after everything I’ve done for him, his company, now he screws me. I made his business a success, I sacrificed my life and he fucking shafts me!” She snapped as her tears flowing freely.

“I don’t understand… It’s only 3 years Michelle, then you have it all.” Said Kate, with mild confusion as Michelle laughed in a mocking tone.

“It doesn’t matter if it was now or 3 years, he was never going to let me run the company, he’s going to pass me over for David, that rat-faced fucking little prick.”


“Oh… That’s terrible, I’m so sorry.” Offered Kate.

Michelle sat down on Kate’s bed and sobbed into her hands. “How much more could I have done to prove to him that I can run his company?” Whined Michelle and she sniffed loudly.

Kate sat down next to Michelle and put a arm around her. “Nothing,  he’s just an ungrateful bastard. Father never appreciates what you or anyone has done for him.” Kate stroked the side of Michelle’s head.

Michelle looked over at the young girl as Kate wiped her tear-filled and stole a kiss.

Michelle immediately got to her feet, shaking the girl off. “Kate just don’t… this is not the time.”

The shoulder-length  blonde leaned back on her bed on her elbows as a sharp look crossed her face. “Why… do you find me repulsive or something?”

“No, of course not.” Defended Michelle. “Despite of what happened, your father is still my boss and out of respect I wouldn’t do this to him.”

“Fuck respect... after everything you’ve done, this is how my father repays you? The only one getting screwed here is you Michelle, so wake up to yourself and smell the fucking coffee.” Kate stated.

Kate got to her feet and moved closer to Michelle. “You’re not doing anything wrong Michelle, why can’t you see that?” Kate ran a finger down Michelle’s stern jaw line.

“Stop letting him control you.” Kate leaned in and let her tongue drift along on dark-haired woman’s lips.

Michelle began to weaken under Kate’s seduction. “Kate... this is’in right.” Michelle moaned softly as Kate paid little attention to the protesting woman.

Kate moved her lips down Michelle’s neck, kissing up and under her chin before sinking on her dark-haired woman’s lips. After a short kiss Kate snaked up next to Michelle’s ear as she whispered gently.

“It not wrong either.”

Kate let her hand drifts down between Michelle legs, caressing her body carefully. Kate took Michelle’s lips again feeling her giving in for more.

“For once in your life Michelle be reckless.”

Michelle steps back and glared at Kate hotly before taking her lips into a crushing kiss silently. She held Kate’s face in firm hands while she snatched violent kisses.

“That’s more like it.” Kate moaned as Michelle’s tongue played around inside her mouth, sending shivers through her luscious body. Michelle grabbed hard at one of Kate’s breast, massaging and squeezing it. She quickly slid her hand under Kate’s top and squeezed her nipple until Kate let out a meek cry of pain.

Michelle shifted Kate back until she fell onto her bed and then climbed on top. Michelle’s lips moved all over blonde’s body and neck as she pulled Kate’s top free and devoured one her small youthful breast in a greedy mouthful.

“Your mouth is so hot.” Kate groaned as her body wanted every part of Michelle. She grabbed Michelle’s hand and pushed it against her heated crotch, giving the older woman a clear message of what she urgently wanted. Michelle hastily pulled Kate’s pants and panties down as she swiftly rubbed her hand through the green-eyed girl’s soft patch of pubic hair, while licking at Kate’s breast.

“I’ve always had feelings for you.” Kate hummed lustfully as her body lifted to Michelle’s firm touch. “I’ve wanted you for a long time, but you never noticed me.”Admitted Kate between pants.

Michelle stole another deep kiss as her fingers played around teasing at the girl’s wet lower lips. Kate broke the kiss suddenly as her green eyes  looked deeply into Michelle’s hazels.

“Michelle...” She called out.

Michelle caught the look and rose over her. “What is it?” Came her quick response, still breathing heavily from the growing bliss inside.

Kate stroked her face tenderly. “I want you to make love to me” She cooed sweetly as she spread her legs.

Michelle smiled, lowering herself down as she let her lips suck every inch of Kate’s tight hot body, without acknowledging the sentiment in the young girl’s eyes.

She ventured further down, passed the girl’s blonde mound and dove deep into Kate’s slippery cunt, flicking her tongue hard and fast.

“Oh, not so hard baby.” Pushing Michelle back a little as Kate’s legs trembled.

Michelle backed off a little, as part of her wanted to hurt Kate for who she was, but the other half just wanted to melt into this cute girl’s body.

“Shhhh, just relax.” Encouraged Michelle.

Kate looked down at Michelle working busily between her legs. She had waited so long for this moment. Kate lifted her hips to Michelle’s punishing tongue as she withered in ecstasy.

Michelle penetrated her quickly, pushing a finger inside Kate’s clinched hole. The blonde let out a cry of pleasure and discomfort at once as she soon adjusted and allowed Michelle to set the pace.

“Please Michelle, I want you so much!” Hollered Kate as she bucked her hips wildly.

Michelle flicked her tongue over Kate’s clit repeatedly, her small bud was so swollen and sensitive it just begged to be touched. Kate’s moaning was getting louder as her body started to shake.

“Oh god yesssss!” Kate cried out, pushing herself down onto Michelle’s tongue as the woman added other finger.

“H-harder, harder!” Michelle, conscious of Kate’s rising excitement just sucked intensely at the girl’s clit and allowed her to cum quickly. The strength of her young lover’s contractions trapped her fingers inside of Kate for a moment as her love juice drained from her drenched gap.

Michelle looked up at her spent young lover with a light smile. “You have turned into such a beautiful young woman.” She complimented as Kate, still feeling the shivers, only nodded

“Just like your mother.” Added Michelle and stroked the wet blonde hair from Kate’s face.

“I love you so much.” Whimpered Kate.

Michelle pushed the after sex comment aside and kissed Kate softly. “I bet you say that to all the girls.” Michelle joked as she tasted her finger.

Suddenly sounds could be heard not far from Kate’s door as Michelle froze.“Quick, my closet.” Ordered Kate quietly as Michelle sprung to her feet in a flash.

Kate quickly pulled the sheets over her naked body just as there was a knock on the door.

“Ahh, come in.” Called Kate nervously.

“Darling, your father and I are heading off to bed.” Mary poked her head into her daughter’s room with a smile.

“Oh, ok night.” Said Kate in a rushing tone.

Her mum looked at the mess of clothes on the floor. “Sweetie, please pick your clothes before tomorrow.”

“Ok mum, night.” Her urgent tone rose.

Her mum looked suspiciously at her daughter for a moment as the girl fidgeted in her bed. “Alright, night.” Then she closed the bedroom door.

The door to Kate’s closet opened slowly and Michelle moved out and smirked. Kate giggled and grabbed playfully for Michelle’s hand.

“Come here. ” Kate tugged Michelle to the bed as with her own smirk.

Michelle shook her head. “No… I should get going.” and made her way to door.

“No... don’t.” Kate pouted as she  moved to block her in.  “Mum and dad will still be awake.” Kate groaned desperately.

Eager to leave Kate’s room immediately, Michelle reluctantly sat back on the bed.Kate sat across from her and looked Michelle over with a concerned look. “Don’t look so worried… I’m not going to tell them.” Chuckled Kate.

Michelle was’in entirely convinced of that. “I don’t know any 19 year olds that can keep a secret.”

“So I’m not the only 19 year old you hang with?” The young girl giggled as she let her imagination wonder.

“No, that’s not what I mean. If this gets out it will ruin me Kate, do you understand what I am saying?” Michelle huffed. Kate caressed Michelle’s face and nibbled on her neck. “Absolutely baby.”

“Kate are you listening to me?” Michelle steadied her tone as Kate continued to play games.

Kate nodded as she slipped her hand under Michelle’s shirt and caressed her breast. “Shhhhh, just enjoy this.” Michelle removed green-eyed girl’s hand from her breast as she didn’t believe Kate was taking her seriously.

“Kate, we’ve had a great night, but it can’t go beyond this night you must understand this.” Said Michelle in her stern business tone, while flailing the girl off.

But Kate only persistently grabbed at Michelle’s hand. “See there you go again… just forget about my father and who he is and forget the company.” Kissed the older woman on the cheek warmly.

“Kate” Warned Michelle. “I have ambitions, goals I want to achieve and at this point I have no room in my life for anyone.”

Trying to bring Michelle back to her side was started to annoy Kate. “Michelle, you’re acting like a dumb ass.”
Michelle eyes narrowed “Yeah and you are acting like that annoying 15 year old brat.”

Kate scowled then sneered as she playfully grabbed at Michelle again. “But I’m not, so get passed it so we can move on and develop our relationship.”

Michelle could feel the air disappearing from her lungs, she felt trapped by Kate’s words.

“Kate I’m not developing anything with you. We had a moment that’s all there is.” Michelle reasoned.

“Well it wasn’t just a moment for me Michelle, ever since I can remember I’ve always had feelings for you. Of course you always ignored me, treated me like I never existed but my feelings for you never changed and now you tell me it’s over. I won’t accept that.” Tears started to fall from the hurt girl’s green eyes.

Michelle got up and paced the room, feeling even more trapped. Kate sensed Michelle’s mood change and lightened her tone

“Does it mean nothing that I’m madly in love you?” Asked Kate.

Michelle stopped and faced Kate. “Don’t… jus’ don’t. You don’t know what love is… you’re still a child for Christ sake, so don’t go using words like love or relationship.” Michelle chided harshly.

Kate started to break down as she covered her face. “I know what love is! It’s the endless thoughts of you, the feeling I get in my stomach when I just get a glimpse of you at company functions. It’s the pain I feel when you reject me. I know what love is Michelle, it’s you who doesn’t.”

Michelle paced more as the walls felt like they were closing in on her. “For fuck sake grow up!” She snapped back. “I am not getting involved with you. I’ve got plans ok, and there is no room for you.” She snarled at Kate as the distressed girl’s sobs grew louder, breaking through Michelle’s mood.

“Please don’t do that. I’m sorry I was so harsh, but this is me... I’m selfish. You are a fantastic young woman and you deserve someone better than me. I’m not the right person for you.” Michelle tried to convince as well as keep Kate calm.

Kate wiped her tears and turned her emotions back to anger. “You know perhaps you’re not the right person for me. I should let father know right now!”

Michelle’s face flashed red, it took all her self-control not to slap Kate down. “Don’t do this Kate.” Warned Michelle again as her anger borderer on crazy. 

Kate stood naked before Michelle, her arms firmly cross. “If you want to keep your precious position in my father’s company, you will love me and we will have a relationship.”

Michelle grinned at Kate’s attempt of intimidation as she just was’in buying it.

“No Kate, just drop it.” Michelle whispered darkly.

Kate leaned closer as she grinned from ear to ear “I always get what I want.”

Michelle started to laugh as the situation was beyond funny. “Kate… just stop this now ok, fun is over.”

“I’m serious MICHELLE!” Raised Kate’s voice.
Michelle jumped at the girl and grabbed her arms. “Fuck sake keep your voice down.” Michelle went to leave when Kate went further.

“Ok, but you can kiss your position in my father’s company good-bye Michelle.” Scoffed Kate.

“Are you threatening me you little bitch?” Growled Michelle as she turned back around.
 
“Well if you don’t want my father to find out about your little late night escapade with his daughter you will love me and in return I will keep our relationship a secret.” Kate tilted her face with a posh look.

Michelle stumbled back towards Kate as she collapsed on bed in disbelief, she was being blackmailed.

Kate sat down next to the sulking Michelle. “I’m going to University and it’s not far from your apartment. I know father won’t want me to stay on campus, he trusts you totally to take me in.” Her voice was full of excitement as she pictured it all out in her head. “I’ve already discussed it with him and he’s fine with it as long as you are.”

Michelle felt sick. “Kate.”

“Shhhh, just think about how much fun we would have together. I’m going to be so good for you.” Whispered the blonde.

Michelle started to shake, her rational thoughts blocked, she dropped her head into her hands unable to think clearly. She could feel everything in her life slipping away, her ambitions, her goals and now her freedom.
Kate hid a smirk knowing she had won over the woman she loved. She lifted Michelle’s heavy head and kissed her passionately.
“I know you want me, stop fighting it.” Kate kissed her again feeling Michelle cave in once again. Kate lied down and pulled Michelle over her. Michelle kissed Kate harder, and slipped onto her neck. “This is unfair.” Moaned Michelle.

Kate stroked Michelle’s black cropped hair lightly as she started to daydream. “It’s what you need.” Reaffirmed Kate.

Michelle kissed at Kate’s ear and whispered coldly. “Kate, I will not let you get in the way of my life, I won’t stand for it. I am also pretty sure your father is not going to believe the rants of a spoiled 19 year old over a loyal employee. But if it’s any consolation, you are one hell of a fuck.” Michelle admitted cruelly as she grinned this time.

Kate pushed Michelle up and slapped her face. “You bitch... you used me. DA...!” She called out as Michelle acted faster then the girl could scream..

Michelle had finally snapped and covered Kate’s nose and mouth with her hand. “Stop it!” Roared Michelle as she pushed down on Kate.

“C’mon, you know I didn’t use you... You wanted it, and you got it, so stop pretending you’re the victim here.” Hissed Michelle.

Kate started thrashing but she was pinned hard under Michelle’s strong body. “But you have gone too far now you sniveling bitch. This is not a game and I will not let you ruin my plans. I’m not one to be fucking toyed with, so you can take your school girl crush elsewhere baby.” Sneered Michelle as her hazel eyes burned violently into Kate’s greens.

Kate still struggled, her sobs smothered by Michelle as the woman pushed down harder. “Stop playing around Kate, you need to find someone else to play with because I’m way out of your league honey.” Michelle continued knowingly.
Kate started to relax, but Michelle still held her firmly, but lighten her tone. “Like I said you can do a lot better than me.”

Convinced that Kate was over her fit she slowly removed her hand from Kate’s mouth and moved off her. Kate didn’t make a sound, she didn’t even try to move.

Michelle leaned over and shook Kate’s limp body “Kate, stop playing this is not funny.”

Kate lay still. Michelle puts her ear to Kate’s chest and listened. Michelle suddenly jumped up, stepping back until she hit the wall and slowly slid down it.

Michelle put hand over her mouth to catch her cries of disbelief. “Oh fuck, oh fuck what have I done?” Tears started to gather in her eyes as she just stared at Kate’s lifeless, naked body on the bed. She closed her eyes praying then opened them again to the image unchanged. She wanted Kate to just stop ranting, she never meant to killed her. Michelle silently sobbed.

After about an half hour Michelle got to her feet and sat on the bed next to Kate. Michelle brushed some of Kate’s full blonde hair back from her pale face, leaned down and kissed her lightly on her cool lips

“I’m so sorry Kate, I never meant for this to get so out of hand.” Before leaving she pulled the blankets up to cover her young dead lover.

Michelle crept to the exit and stopped in the kitchen. She shook her head, feeling the rage return that had caused her to lose her temper with Kate. She removed large carving knife from the block and walked back.

“This is all his fault.” Michelle found herself looking down at her sleeping boss. Michelle screwed her face up thinking how the man she loved and admired could treat her like this. She shook her head as the thoughts of Kate, David, John and his stupid fucking company raced though her mind.

John’s eyes flickered open. “Michelle... what the hell?” He asked shockingly.
Michelle in a rush of panic sank the knife deep into his chest. He let out a scream as blood spattered everywhere. Mary woke up screaming at the sight next to her. She quickly ran for the door but Michelle jumped her from behind, grabbed her around the throat, and slammed her into the wall

“Please Mary don’t scream, I’m so sorry” Cried Michelle.

Mary’s body went limp immediately, Michelle let her go watching her fall to the floor, the back of her head caved in. She looked around seeing John trying to remove the knife from his bleeding chest. Michelle went over and withdrew the knife and without a word drove the knife in again and again. John’s chest opened like a fountain as Michelle actually caught herself smiling. Covered in blood, she made her way to the bathroom.

Michelle let the water fall over her body, her mind numb of the bloody events. She looked at the floor, the water washed the blood of her surrogate family down the drain. Michelle collapsed to the floor and hugged herself, rocking back and fore crying loudly.

It was 3am and Michelle had a roaring fire, she just stared mesmerized as she burnt her blood stained clothes. She eventually wrapped up the knife and buried it in the small garden at the back of her apartment, then went to bed.

Two weeks later Michelle was celebrated by the company’s board to take over the reins of the company.

Michelle thanked everyone and made a tribute. “Although I am grateful for all your support and confidence I am also saddened to take over because of the tragic circumstances. John, Mary and Kate were my family and I loved them all very much. I owe all my experience to John’s guidance. It still hurts that I have lost a great friend and I still morn him and his family. I just hope and pray that the authorities find the person or persons that committed this atrocious crime. Thank you again.” The board members and staff of the company clapped and cheered Michelle before dispersing back to work. David casually walked up as Michelle was putting away papers into her brief case.

“Very touching speech.” Commented David flatly.

“Well, it’s how I feel.” Michelle returned the tone.

David leaned in little closer, lowering his voice “You know I can’t see you keeping this company moving forward Michelle. Times are a changing and well you have made no effort to change with it.” Pointed out David.

“Well I know what I’m doing, I’ve been taught by the best. If you have any input and ideas I am always happy to indulge.” Michelle went to leave.

“He was never going to let you run the company… John was going to pass you over for me.” Gloated David with a huge smirk on his face.

Michelle’s face went to stone and growled. “Yeah prove it?” She turned back and stared David down as he said nothing and looked away.

“That’s right David you can’t…. It was recorded during last months meeting that I was to be John’s successor. It was John who put me forward as his replacement when he retired. There is no mentioned of you.” She snapped with spite.

“Well he changed his mind.” He bit back.
“So you say and again I ask you to prove it.” Mocked Michelle as she knew David had no argument.

David thumped the table with a solid fist. “How the fuck can I when he was bloody well murdered the night he told me?”

Michelle dropped her head as the night came back in a flash.“Yes, well how unfortunate for you.” Michelle drew in a sharp breath and left the office.

Michelle stormed into her CEO office just as the sign-painter finished putting her name on the door of John’s old office. She paced the floor figuring out what to do with David and his accusations. He would make a point every time something went wrong in the company back on her. She did not want to lose face with the company that she built.

She rang her secretary and asked for David to be sent to her room. Michelle feeling closed in, opened the large window to her office. She sat on the edge and looked out over. She watched as the ant sized people below scurried about their business without a care in the world.

“Planning an early exit?” Scoffed David as he entered the office.

Michelle smirked coyly and picked up a pencil. “You know if you drop a pencil like this from this high up it has the potential to kill someone, just imagine? something this small."

David moved to the window and leaned out looking down. “Really and your point is?” Michelle’s eyes narrowed as she patted him on the back causing him to jump back with fright.

“Easy there David, wasn’t like I was going to push you out the window.” She walked past him with a growing sneer. She closed the door to her office and headed back to her large, black, leather chair.
“Please take a seat David, because I have some rather bad news about your position in my company.” Michelle smirked viciously as she twirled her pen in her hand and leaned back.
