The Misses

You

Monday morning came without warning. To Lana it felt like someone had put a jack in the box next to her bed in lieu of an alarm clock. A jack in the box that housed an evil clown.

"Ma'am, would you like to visit the sauna after your workout this morning?" Enid asked.

"Workout? Do I even care?" Lana asked herself. Even though those words left her lips, she unconsciously put on the gym clothes Enid had laid out for her.

"Yes Enid. Ready the sauna." Lana commanded.

Lana's weekly regimen included going to their personal gym on the basement floor. She particularly adored the gym because it was within the hills. Going down to it made her feel like she was a secret agent being prepped for a covert mission. She normally listened to light rock music but she didn't feel like it today. "Assistant, play Metallica, start with Frantic", Lana commanded. Music blared throughout the gym. Lana felt a small spark of life. She got on the treadmill and started her 5 mile run. She kept in shape so that Levi could never say "You've gained weight". She didn't want to give him any reason to not want her. "All that struggling for no reason" she said while gritting her teeth. Nevertheless, she only had essential body fat and she made sure to never over-tone her muscles. She wanted to remain soft and "womanly". Lana looked down and laughed to herself. She didn't realize how much work she had put into making herself the perfect bride. After finishing her run, she wrapped up her workout with 8 sets of reps that would burn fat on her arms.

"Sauna will be ready in 1 minute." The house assistant stated on the overhead intercom.

"Perfect timing." Working out made Lana forget that she was meeting with her new CEO today. Stress automatically poured out of her body. Right then she decided, "This workout is for me, now". She mumbled to herself. Lana removed all of her clothing and stepped into the sauna. The sauna and jacuzzi were to the right of the gym and the shower and dressing room were to the left. Levi built this house based on Lana's specifications. Lana set back against the wooded seat and reminisced on how Levi didn't argue or question the things she wanted in the house. She was sure that he was just treating her like his queen.

"Now look at you." Lana giggled to herself.

"Sauna time has expired per your schedule." The house assistant belted out.

Lana collected herself and left to go to the shower. A bell rang to signal it was time to prepare for leaving. This scheduler was one of the first items H.A.I marketed. You told the assistant your schedule and it made sure you didn't miss a beat. Also, something Levi installed without hesitation.

"Would you like a style or just for me to blow dry and brush?" Enid asked.

"Blow dry and brush."Lana responded.

The dressing room was fashioned with gold. The closet was sorted by color and outfit purpose. The closet rotated depending on the outfit type requested, whether its gym, work, play, party or shoes. Mirrors lined all of the available walls. After Enid finished her hair, she showed her the selection of work outfits she had chosen.

"Good job, Enid," Lana professed.

"I will take my leave then."

Lana chose to wear a white floral quarter sleeve blouse that was low cut with a belted light blue pencil skirt that stopped right above her knees. Enid had picked out her "confidence stilettos". They were a pastel pink and added 6 inches to her height. Just like the name says, they gave her confidence when she had none.

Enid included a light blue cashmere sweater with the outfit. "It must be a little chilly out this morning?" Lana thought to herself. She put the sweater on and headed to breakfast. In the midst of speed walking to the breakfast table, Lana realized she was going to be late. She was no longer on Levi's time. She couldn't leave when he left. She pressed the intercom, "Enid, have the car pulled around, I need to leave now."

Lana pulled on her sweater and Enid took over her laptop bag.

Lana was unsure what type of day it would be but she promised herself she would not cry. She tried to fill her car ride with agenda items that would be presented at the meeting this morning.

As they pulled up to the 125 floor building, Lana took a deep sigh and gave herself a quick pep talk. The CEO's office was on the 124th floor and the 125th floor was a suite. Lana entered the security code that allowed her to go directly to the 124th floor. Upon exiting, there's a large sitting area nested into the floor next to a wall of books. On the other side of that wall was the CEO's office. As Lana rounded the corner, she could see the silhouette of a young lady through the bullet-proof frosted glass. "She is smaller than I remember", she thought. Before she could knock, Reeza asked her to enter.

"Good Morning, Lady Hindrick" Lana said.

"I see why my dad was attracted to you." Reeza's words were surprising and painful. Lana knew that was a lie.

"You are really tall. Don't wear heels in my presence. I don't like it." Reeza continued. Reeza walked toward Lana, scanning her body from head to toe. The look in her eyes was just like Levi's. She was literally a female clone of him.

Once Reeza was in front of Lana, she said, "Remove your shoes." Lana was taken aback but she complied.

Without her shoes on, her and Reeza, in 6 inch heels, stood eye to eye. "Better" Reeza cheered.

"This close up, you are a spectacle to be held, aren't you?" Reeza asked, then started to push Lana's hair behind her ear. Lana reacted by avoiding her touch.

Reeza looked at Lana with disapproving eyes, then leaned in until she was less than an inch from Lana's face and said, "What's on the agenda today? ".

Lana gathered her wits and contended "I am not your secretary."

Reeza was startled, "Does my father not own you? I'm confused." She remarked snidely.

"Shall I call our secretaries in?" Lana ignored Reeza's punch.

Reeza turned to walk to her desk, "Yes, call them in. Does the agenda include your punishment time?"

"My punishment?" Lana questioned.

"We will discuss after this meeting."

A group of secretaries entered along with 3 board members. The secretaries kept time and took notes. The board members provided a high level cost analysis review for the quarter . Lana provided the strategy and budget approvals. The CEO's job was to provide additional direction and final approvals. After 2 hours of getting Reeza caught up on activities for the past 2 weeks and Levi's visions, the team was dismissed.

Lana turned to exit the office with her shoes in hand, she needed to make sure everything was in order for tomorrow's 'Introduction Ball'.

"So you weren't just my Dad's toy? I am quite shocked that you are a capable woman." Reeza hissed.

Reeza left her desk and walked towards Lana. Lana did not feel like she should address Reeza's jabs.

"Reeza, I am here in the capacity your father asked of me. Why must you make it unpleasant?" Lana asked without turning around and while gritting her teeth. Inside she was boiling. [How dare this btch!]

"You think because my father respected you, treated you like an equal, you can get away with saying anything you want? Look at me!" Reeza grabbed Lana's shoulder and spun her around. Lana fell onto the floor from the strength Reeza exerted. Reeza knelt down beside Lana,

"What do you think your punishment should be?" Reeza asked rhetorically.

"Firstly, you refer to me as Misses only. Stop saying my name. Secondly, you work for me. We are not equal when I say..." Reeza paused to think of a task for Lana.

"When I say lick my ankle, you lick my ankle with love and fcking care. You understand me?"

Lana was still stunned from being pushed to the floor. "What are you waiting for?" Reeza sat on the arm of the couch and extended her left leg.

Lana looked at her ankle and then looked back at Reeza. "What on earth are you talking about?!" Lana said, still trying to comprehend the situation..

"Don't make me repeat myself, La....Na. You know my dad's will did not say I was required to pay you for staying on. What a funny loop hole, right?"

Lana's eyes grew wide. Reeza was right. She had only assumed Levi would take care of her even in death.

Reeza raised her leg once more. Lana hesitated. She would do this now to calm the she-devil and then review the will and testament when she got home.

"Be gentle and I wanna feel like you are enjoying me", Reeza said with a naughty grin on her face. Lana leaned in and held Reeza's ankle. She kneaded her tongue into the silky pantyhose starting from Reeza's ankle to her calf. Reeza breathed out a low moan which seemed to have shocked her.

"Leave." Reeza spouted as if she didn't intend for Lana to hear her lustful voice.

Lana quickly got to her feet and recollected her shoes and her dignity.
