Mousy little Heidi is a wanna-be designer who works as nothing more than a glorified go-fer for one of the largest and most well-known companies in the world of fashion. When she accidentally stains CEO Mr. Kaiser's pants, she gets two things she didn't expect-a spanking...and a job. Kaiser hires her as his assistant, and her "training" proves to be quite a test of surrender. ----- Warning: This title contains erotic situations, graphic language, spanking, domination, submission, and an office romance hot enough to leave handprints . ----- * * 2011 EPIC AWARD FINALIST * * ----- EXCERPT: Heidi took a deep breath, glancing around the office. "I've never been anyone's secretary." He shook his head, smiling. "Irrelevant. You have what I need." "I... do?" She met his eyes, her breath coming a little faster as she squirmed in her seat. His eyes were dark, moving over her, and she couldn't help remembering the incident in the bathroom. "I need someone who can follow orders." He leaned back in his chair again and she could see the memory of yesterday in his eyes. "Who would be willing to do whatever I asked. You showed me yesterday that you are... quite willing." Heidi swallowed, pressing her damp palms to her shorts. "I'm not sure I know what you mean?" "Yes, you do." His eyes were smiling. "I compensate very well. You would be my assistant, answering my calls, handing my correspondence and taking care of my professional and personal needs during the day. Would you be interested in such an arrangement?" It wasn't the promise of money or the poshness of his office, or even the fact that he was the head of one of the richest fashion companies in the world -- it was the way he looked at her, with nothing concealed or disguised. His eyes saw directly through her, and there was no smugness in the way it appeared as if he had her figured out, because he had. They both knew it, and there was only one answer she could give him. "Yes." She squeezed her hands together, her legs, too. "Sir." He gave her a nod. "Good. I think we'll both be satisfied with the arrangement." Opening the top drawer of his desk, he withdrew a large white envelope and slid it across the blotter. Heidi didn't know if she should take it or not, so she kept her hands clasped, just looking from him to the envelope. "This contains general information about Kaiser, which you have already, of course, since you are essentially already in my employ," he explained. "There is also a contract and information about duties as well as your salary and benefits." She nodded, looking at his hand, the buffed, square nails, resting on the stark envelope. Her bottom tingled, remembering how red his palm had been after he spanked her. Shifting in her seat, she crossed one knee over the other, trying to make herself more comfortable with the yearning ache between her legs. "If, for some reason, you read those over and change your mind..." He nodded toward the envelope. "You simply need to tell me, and you will consequently stay in your current position." "I can't imagine why I would object." "No." He smiled. "I don't imagine you will. In spite of the apparent haste of my offer, I actually choose my assistants quite carefully." Standing, he leaned his palms on the desk blotter, his eyes moving down the front of her t-shirt, looking at her hands in her lap. "Now, there is just the matter of your tardiness." Her heart leapt and she met his eyes, feeling faint. "My... tardiness?" Mr. Kaiser reached underneath the desk and Heidi heard the door behind her lock. The sound made her mouth go dry. "One of the things that I cannot abide is lateness." He reached down and unbuckled his belt. She felt faint as she watched it slipping through the loops of his pants.
