Episode 2

A strong slap makes the girl fall to the ground, and then a kick makes her expel all the air from her system.

"You had one thing to do right, Emma, one thing! And you didn't do it right?"

The boy yells at her, and she cries silently.

"Forgive me, David, I promise I'll do better next time."

The boy scoffs and rolls his eyes while looking at her on the ground.

"You'll do better? You've been working for my cousin, the idiot, for two years... How hard is it for you to seduce that bastard? Don't you have enough womanly attributes?"

"I will, David, I promise I will, just give me time, okay?"

"Time is what we don't have, my father's company is bankrupt, and you're the only salvation... Can't you do that for me? For your fiance?"

Seeing his eyes full of sadness makes me feel bad and guilty, so I nod as I get up from the ground.

"I'll do it, in three days there will be an employee party and Mr. Moretti will be there, I'll drug him and make him pay a large sum for abusing me."

David smiles satisfied, and deep down I'm grateful for the good idea I've given.

"Excellent idea, darling, remember that everything is for our own good... Soon we will be happy, just you and me, okay?"

"Yes, David, I promise I'll do it right this time."

The girl stands up and with her hand on her stomach looks at the love of her life and then leaves for her house.

EMMA:

The silence of my parents' house greets me, and I walk slowly to climb the stairs, but a voice stops me.

"Your fiance has informed me that you're not doing things right, Emma."

My father's voice from the living room couch makes me jump, and I look back.

"Father."

I murmur with some tremor in my voice, and he stands up, walking towards me while looking me up and down.

"It seems David has already punished you as you deserve... Hide that reddish color on your cheek."

"Yes, Father."

I murmur and watch as he heads to the stairs, but stops to add.

"You better listen to your fiance, the triumph of our companies depends on you, is that clear?"

"Yes, Father."

I say again, and he finally leaves while I nod and then retire to my room.

The days passed, and the three days arrived while I die of nerves and fear.

I must do it, everything for David and my family.

I murmur to myself as I watch Mr. Moretti leave his office and head to my desk.

"Miss Miller."

He calls me with his low, hoarse voice, and I respond immediately while feeling his presence intimidate me.

"Sir?"

"I need all the documents from last week on my desk, understood?"

"Yes, sir."

I answer immediately and watch as he turns around to leave to the elevator, and with a sigh I stop him.

"Mr. Moretti."

His broad back stops and looks at me over his shoulder.

"Remember the party with the employees."

A thread of voice comes out of me and Mr. Moretti nods and then leaves.

When the elevator closes with him, I take several breaths of air and start doing everything asked before leaving.

(...)

Hours later I look at myself in the mirror and I'm wearing a nice black dress, very short and very revealing for my taste, but if I want to attract my boss's attention, this is more than necessary, I adjust my breasts and bite my lips from how uncomfortable I am.

"Okay, this is your chance to do things right, Emma."

I tell myself and then leave my room.

When I go downstairs, my younger sister by two years looks at me with a radiant smile.

"Are you leaving already?"

"Yes... How do I look?"

"You look great, it's the first time I've seen you dressed like that."

"In my 23 years it's the first time I've worn something like this."

I mention embarrassed and she smiles taking my hands.

"I wish you good luck, dear."

"Thank you... It's time to go, the taxi is already here for me."

I retire and head to the taxi that was already waiting for me, I give my address and he nods taking me to the place.

When I arrive at the bar I observe all the employees including my boss who looks very relaxed and different with clothes that are not office clothes.

"Good evening."

I mention approaching them and they all respond.

"Good evening Emma."

"I almost didn't recognize you, how beautiful you are."

These are some of the compliments from my co-workers and I smile somewhat embarrassed.

"Thank you... Can I sit down?"

I ask my boss who observes an empty space next to him and he nods downplaying it.

Between drinks, anecdotes, dances and jokes some hours pass and I observe how everyone is drunk.

My boss is not the exception, but he is still sober, so I take advantage of a distraction and put a transparent liquid in the drink.

I only wait a few minutes and watch how he drinks it all and I sigh nervously waiting for it to take effect which does not take long to happen.

"I feel very drunk, I think it's time to leave."

My boss says and I offer to take him.

"You don't look well at all boss, I'll take you."

I offer and he denies.

"It's not necessary, I have a room in this bar, I usually stay when I drink too much."

He drags the word and I stand up helping him.

"I'll help you go up to your room, it's no bother for me, let's go."

I insist again and he says nothing while I take him to his room and he gives me the address.

On the way to it I observe how my boss looks at my breasts and licks his lips while smiling.

"You look very sexy Miss Miller, I don't usually do this, but... Would you like to spend this night with me?... Sorry, sorry... I drank too much and I don't know what I'm saying."

He apologizes trying to get away from me and I approach him taking his big hands and placing them on my chest.

"I have no problem with that boss."

"Alexandro... We're not in the office... Call me Alexandro."

He says and I nod with a smile while inside I feel like the worst person, but this is necessary and it will be worth it, I'm sure, right?
