Monica smiled awkwardly over at her employees as she too received the e-mail from head office that notified its reader of the organisational changes of this branch they all worked in. To say she was shocked was a massive understatement as she read through it. ‘Monica Harris: branch manager’. Well, she thought as her hands rested in the lap of the short black skirt she wore, she had been called worse things.
There were numerous reasons why this announcement had come unexpectedly to both her and her new employees. Being the newest recruit in one of the lower roles, secretary assistant, she had beaten off competition from numerous people in this office. As reality began to set in, she soon realised just why she had been given such a role; one she hadn’t even enquired about.
She was the childhood friend of the company director, Alexis Smith, a friendship that had drifted inevitably at the end of high school but a few years later had regained its strength. A few months before this day, Alexis had learned of the other’s desperate need for a job to pay the rent she was behind them and found a role for her in this office. She called it ‘ a reward for her loyalty and friendship over the years’, yet Monica sat here months later, ready to become the highest paid, in the highest role of this branch. Monica began to worry, she was clearly not ready and underqualified for such a role, however her deep thoughts and concerns were interrupted when a knock on the door was heard.
Monica stood up, dressed in a short and quite revealing black dress with tan pantyhose and matching black high heels. She managed to walk calmly to her door as she opened it and saw Penny at the door. She was the girl who had worked the hardest and was the favourite in the days running up to the surprise announcement. Monica didn’t know where to look, she felt so awkward.
“Hi. I’d just like to say, congratulations on behalf of all of us for the promotion.” She said, with a voice that sounded polite but a little bitter.
“Um, thank-you, it was a shock you know.” She spoke almost in a whisper, uneasy in this girl’s presence and unsure just how to react.
“It was to all of us.” Penny acknowledged looking down at the floor and only raising her head occasionally when she spoke. She was clearly upset and gutted she wasn’t the one. “May I come in, we may as well celebrate” she said, clutching a bottle of champagne before whispering with a tear in her eye, “I saved this for me, I thought I would be celebrating.”
Monica felt awful, she couldn’t help but feel sorry for seeing this girl’s hard work and dedication go completely un-noticed. However she let the woman in and as she turned her back to walk back towards her desk, she heard the familiar sound of the door close before a hand covered her mouth and she was forced over to a wall. Monica barely had any time to react to the situation she now found herself in, as she felt her wrists pulled behind her and secured together with what she presumed was rope.
“What on earth are you doing?” she asked a little scared as her elbows were then secured together before she was turned around to face Penny who just smiled.
“Shutup you slut, I have worked far too hard, had far too many sleepless nights and dedicated myself to this place for far too long to miss out on my reward to some under-qualified, skimpy dressed slut.” Penny exploded, clearly she wasn’t happy with the concerned Monica, who now felt ropes tied above and below her breasts which pinned her arms to her back. This was eventually turned into a breast harness as Monica became even more concerned just how little she could move and the loss of control she had experienced. She was a little embarrassed and remained speechless for quite a few moments as penny left her there for a few moments, shutting her one open blind, although from what she saw, no-one had seen her like this yet.
She then felt herself forced to sit on the floor by Penny who promptly followed this up with a strict rope around her ankles as she felt her movement really restricted.
“Ew no, come on, is there really any need for that?” she said in a little disgust as she witnessed Penny slowly remove her light blue silk panties and slide them down her pantyhose clad, shapely legs.
Before Monica could protest anymore, she felt the panties stuffed into her mouth, eventually being sealed in by duct tape being wound around her head several times. Monica could only ‘mpph’ in frustration as she frantically tested her bonds. They were very secure and it wasn’t long before she became aware that she wasn’t going anywhere. She then watched as Penny walked away from her and sat in the chair at her desk.
“I’m sorry for pouncing on you like this but unfortunately you won’t be able to accept this role you were mistakenly gifted” Penny teased as Monica looked on in horror. “But don’t worry, you will get your own sort of promotion; one that suits a slut like yourself better” she whispered, continuing to tease the restrained beauty on the floor as the blonde at the desk began to type and speak at the same time, letting Monica know just what was being said.
“Alexis, First off I’d like to thank you for nominating me for such a role in your company, I am both honoured and privileged.” Penny paused as her typing caught up, she read this part in a bitter almost jealous tone before she continued.
“However, it has come to my realisation that I am not yet ready to fulfil the demands of this role and so I have chosen Penny to take the role for me – a decision I hope you both trust and agree with my judgement on. As part of this deal I have agreed to become her personal assistant, therefore I will be able to gain a better understanding of the demands and daily decisions that go with the role, hopefully sop one day in the future I will understand.” She glanced at Monica on the floor who by now had stopped struggling and simply stared at Penny in disbelief. Penny then gave her a smirk and a wink before concluding the e-mail.
“Yours, Monica. X” As her finger pressed the enter button, Monica let out a long moan. She was clearly frustrated and annoyed by what had just happened but full realisation of the loss of power she had been subjected to came within 5 minutes and the seemingly instant reply from Alexis. As it was read aloud to her, it was her worst nightmare in this position as Alexis agreed with contents of the e-mail and subsequent switch of roles.
Monica now felt powerless and realised her future fate was now completely in hands of the smiling smug Penny who stood up and brushed her hands together playfully.
“I have many ideas for you in your new role and I’m sure you will learn to love this sensation of being tied, with the other surprises that come with it” she chuckled.
