Two Partners

I was busy at work...Making phone calls from two smartphones, Checking the apps on my Tablet and looking things up from my laptop....Occasionally Olivia would bring me a tumbler of coffee...and I would thank her...but outside of that...I was in detective mode..

I was busy looking up things about Ms. Lucy Luckette, the woman who was now suing both Soloman Foster's law firm and him for sexual harrassment...All we had was Soloman's protestations that he did not harrass her sexually and that they were in a consensual relationship...He said that he had never told her that sex was a condition of her employment...but him saying that was what everyone would expect and with the witnesses poised to testify against him, including our own Office Administrative Assistant...I had to say that right now..It didn't look too good for him unless I could find something, anything to give my wife, Attorney Olivia Bennett-Alexander and her niece, Beverly  some ammunition..

Olivia put down a stack of briefs related to the case and walked over to my desk and sat on my lap...

It was the first time my concentration had broke in awhile...I looked at her and smiled..

"Usually you do something like this to me when I'm in deep concentration" she said and leaned over and gave me a slow, tender and sensuous kiss...

"Wow..well uh...There goes my concentration..."I said.

"It's okay...You're allowed a break...You've been working hard..You find anything?" she asked..

"Yeah...Her financials are off the hinges...She hasn't reached it yet..but she has very close to three million dollars in her bank account alone and three platinum credit cards in her name...She's an administrative assistant...What's wrong with this picture?" I said.

"Where does the money come from?" asked Olivia..

"Some of the money is from a nice settlement she got from the church...Settled out of court...There was another settlement some years before from business owner, Seymore Butts...Same thing...Sexual harrassment on the job...Damaging photos of him and her and another woman...Butts settled out of court rather than risk embarrassment..and another settlement from Georgia James..." I said.

"Georgia James? The Lifestyles Coach and TV talk show host?? Don't tell me this was a sexual harrassment case too? She's a woman.."said Olivia..

"She's a Lesbian too..She is semi-closeted...There is a photo of her and this same woman and one of her,Lucy and this woman...and this woman is the same woman that was in the sex video with Reverend Cecil Copeland...I think Ms. Lucy Luckette is a grifter and she has two partners..." I said.

"Two partners?" asked Olivia..

"The Attorney in all of these cases is none other than your friend and mentor..Dallas Houston...He got a nice cut in all of these cases and in all of the cases...He avoided going to court...He had so much damaging information on Seymore Butts, Georgia James and Reverend Dr. Cecil Copeland that they settled rather than face a public trial and public humiliation if the photos of them  came out where all of their dirty secrets would air out... Look at Soloman Foster, a disgraced former ADA, who did prison time ,paroled and had his law license restored with a history of chasing skirts...Including the esteemed Lieutenant of Homicide, Sissy Van Buren, Detectives Carlotta Rodriguez-Wallace and Angela Belton...All people beyond reproach...Not only that ,There is damaging video footage of Lucy and Soloman having oral sex in his office and sexual relations at her condo and with her girlfriend in a threesome...Most lawyers would back away from this and settle in a heartbeat...but you won't." I said.

"No...I won't....I think I can cross examine Sissy,Carlotta ,Angie and Keith and turn this around for one thing...They all worked with him...I don't think they hate him...Especially not Angie...She turned him down for a relationship, but she still continued to communicate with him...and Keith Wallace is the man who hired me and Robert Foxworth to work on his parole and the restoration of his license..." said Olivia.

"What about the sex in his office and in her apartment??...That looks bad." I said.

"Why?  They were in a consensual relationship...What if someone taped all of the times me and you were intimate...Would that mean that I was sexually harrassing you?" she asked..

"Yeah, but we are married....and you can sexually harrass me if you want." I said.

Olivia laughed...

"True..but who bugs an office and their house and records sexual trysts and just happens to have it when they sue?  The fact that this has happened at least three times that we know proves that there is a pattern..I just hope it's a co-incidence that Dallas has been her attorney." said Olivia..

I slipped my hand up Olivia's dress and squeezed her ample rear end..and rubbed her legs...

"What are you doing?" she asked..

"I am sexually harrassing you.."I said with a smile..

"Ouuuuuuu..I just felt something hard and it was not your hand.."she said...

I smiled...

"Noooo,it definitely wasn't.."I said.

She leaned over and kissed me...I put my arms around her and kissed her...We were kissing each other passionately....when just then..the door opened..It was Beverly!!

II-

She shook her head...

"You two are something else... Can't be alone for a few hours can you? Did you all get any work done at all?" she joked..

''We got plenty..Did you check out those people?" I asked...

"I did...Seymore Butts  told me a lot...His story matches Soloman to the letter...About how he hired her and before the day was over, She had come on to him and they wound up in the back room naked and making love....

Before he knew what hit him..He had raised her salary, let two employees go and was head over heels in love with her...

After two years...They had a falling out and she abruptly quit...The next thing he knew,he was being sued and videos of him and her and another woman surfaced..
He was too embarrassed to fight it and he didn't want that getting out in a public trial so he settled out of court..He was going through a divorce at the time and this would have crushed him."said Beverly..

"Wowzers...That sounds exactly like Reverend Dr.Cecil Copeland...She was with him for seven years.." said Olivia.

"I think she was actually in love with him Auntay..She stayed with him a lot longer..but all the while, she was collecting damaging information on him...Insurance.."said Beverly....

"She apparently had knowledge that Georgia James was either a Lesbian or Bi-sexual and she fished herself into her employ as her personal assistant...It wasn't long before She and Georgia were involved in an affair...

She had copies of emails...texts and actual love letters from James and of course sex tapes...This was all before Georgia kind of came halfway out the closet and once again she kind of settled out of court to keep from having a lengthy public trial..."said Beverly..

"My God...This Lucy Luckette is a psychopath!"  I said.

"You're right D.R., In fact...She was tested a few years ago in a random study she did for some researchers...For extra money...She'll do anything for money...She tested wayyy off the charts for that.....That was something extra I found...You may be able to use that." said Bev...

A big smile grew on my face...

"Will any of them agree to be witnesses for us?" I asked..

"It took some talking, but I got all three of them on board...They want to recoup their money and they are angry at being played..They have no love for Ms. Luckette"said Beverly...

I lifted her up and spun her around and kissed her on her cheek....

"Good Girl!!!...You are the bomb baby!" I said and spun her around some more...

She giggled..

''Donnie Ray, put me down,  put me down....you're making me dizzy..."she said screaming and laughing.

Olivia began to tear up...

We both stopped our little mini-celebration and stopped..

"Auntay, what's wrong?" asked Bev..

"Yeah babes..You should be happy..."I said.

She dabbed her eyes and regained control...

"I am..I am very happy...I was just thinking about how truly fortunate I am to have both of you working for me...I love you both so much!" she said.

I held Olivia in my arms...In such a short time I had come to really love the both of them....

"It's usually your niece over there that tears up and gets all emotional.."I said and kissed her on her forehead..

"I know..I know.." she said getting control of herself..

I kissed her on her forehead again...She smiled...

"Awww Auntay....It's the least I can do for you...I owe you everything."said Bev...who teared up a little herself.

''What did I tell you about forehead kisses??...Give me a real kiss mannnn."she said and smiled at me..

I kissed her passionately...Beverly smiled..

"Awww...Much as I joke...You two are the cutest couple......What's next?" she said.

"You guys have a preliminary hearing tomorrow before a judge and then jury selection after that...I need some airline tickets...I've got some traveling to do... To Miami, where Ms. Luckette is from....If she's been raising this much havoc in Philly for a decade or so..I wonder what she was doing before she came here?" I said.

"You're leaving me babe?" asked Olivia...

"Just for two days..I'll be back." I said.

"Wow ,this will be the first time we've been seperated since we got married.." she said.

"Go with him Auntay...I can handle the prelim and the jury selection.."said Beverly..

"You sure?" asked Olivia..

I answered for Beverly...

"Livy...Our girl is a woman now...She got this...She's a seasoned Attorney...I don't think there is anything else you need to teach her.." I said.

Beverly beamed with pride...

Olivia smiled and hugged her niece..

"Okay baby..you got it..If you have any questions...You call me...I don't care what time it is okay?"she said..

"You know I will Auntay." she said.

I was used to the three of us going on a trip...but it would be nice to be alone with Olivia this time...

III-

Nelson walked into our office just then...

"Hey guys..." he said.

"Heyy Nelson..What are you doing here during the middle of the day? You missin Bev?" asked Olivia jokingly...

"I miss Bev everytime she leaves me." he said.

Corny, but a sure fire way for him to get him some later....I wasn't mad at him...

''Awwwww...that's so sweet." said Beverly...

He walked over to Beverly and gave her a kiss so passionate that it actually got me a little excited watching it..

"Wow...what was that for?" asked Beverly...

"Just because..." he said and smiled..

"I like your just because.." said Beverly...looking at Nelson like she wanted to gobble him up...

"Well actually,I came to see you Ms. Livy and Donnie Ray." he said.

"What's up?" I asked..

"So there was an apartment available in my complex that I wanted to rent...It was bigger than the one I'm in now...and a few floors up...Has a nice view of the street...I couldn't rent it because I was still at the public defender's office at the time and couldn't afford it...Anyway...I inquired about it yesterday and I was told that somebody already had that apartment...That they had had  it for close to a year.I never saw anybody in the apartment, but from time to time I'd hear the bed squeaking, the headboard slamming against the wall and moaning and groaning.. so I kind of figured somebody bought it as you know, a cool out joint...Guess who owns it?" he said.

"Tell us..The suspense is killing me."said Olivia with fake sarcasm...

Beverly and I cracked up laughing...

"That lawyer we met at Mulberry Street...the one you said was your mentor and former co-worker..Dallas Houston!" he said.

"Dallas Houston ?????Why would he need an apartment...He has a townhouse ??..I've seen it.."said Olivia..

"I thought maybe he was married ,but he's not.."said Beverly...

"No..In fact ,he's dating Coretta Williams ,the girl he took from Reverend Dr. Cecil Copeland..." said Olivia...

"Yeah..See I remember her...So when I heard the headboard slamming against the wall and the bed squeaking and all the moaning this morning...I thought that maybe he had brought her there.."said Nelson..

''Why would he need to bring her there? He has a huge townhouse to take her too, Plus everyone knows they are a couple...This apartment seems like the type of place you take somebody when you don't want everybody to know you're seeing them.?" I said..."Unless that wasn't Coretta Williams there.." I added..

"It wasn't..It was the babe that threw the wine glasses at your friend...Soloman Foster, the creep who hurt Josie.." he said.

"Nelson are you sure?" said Olivia...

"Lucy Luckettee?..I said That Lucy Luckette had another partner...It's him!!...He's handled all of her law suits and he's made quite a pile for himself...She's got two partners..The other being that woman ,who ironically is in all of the videos with her " I said incredulous....

"Yeah, they walked past me in the parking lot this morning...and get this...They couldn't keep their hands off of each other...They were going at it in the car...I swear, I turned my head and got out of there." he said..

I cracked up laughing...

"Ohh man, this explains a lot..Check this out...Not a word of what you saw to anyone...Bev, keep this under your lid...This is our trump card..He's so sure he's going to force us to settle...I don't care what he says at that prelim tomorrow..You just tell him, "I'll see you in court..." The last thing he wants is to go to court...He hasn't had to before...He's going to show you everything he's got...But don't you tell him anything..Stall him...Don't tell him we are in Miami."I said.

"Got'cha D.R."she said...She walked over to Nelson and whispered in his ear...

"You busy today?"

"Nah...I don't have any case work..."he said..

"Good, because you got me soooo turned on by what you told us..Why don't you uh visit with me upstairs for awhile? Let's make my bed squeak a little." she whispered.

"Really?" he whispered and followed Beverly to the door..

''Auntay...We'll uh, see you a little later."said Beverly..Looking at Nelson alluringly....

''Okay baby.."  said Olivia....

IV-

I locked the office doors and dimmed the lights...

Olivia smiled...

''What are you doing?"she asked..

"We are closed for the day." I said.

"Oh? We are?" she said.."I have other clients besides Soloman...other case work."she said.

''They coming by?" I asked..

"No." said Olivia..

"Then we are closed."I said..

"You're getting too good at this." said Olivia..

"Too good at what?" I asked..

"Seducing me at work...This is sexual harrassment."she said...

"Guilty as charged.."I said...Olivia laughed...

Olivia was sitting on her desk...I walked over to her and kissed her passionately...

She returned my passion.....I took her hand and led her to the kitchen area in the back...

"Ouuu Mr. Alexander...whatever do you have planned for me?" she asked jokingly..

''As if you don't know." I said looking at her salaciously...

We quietly walked back to the kitchen...She sat up on the sink...I parted her legs and continued kissing her.....

"Oh Mr. Alexander...This is sooo inappropriate...Taking advantage of me like this.."she joked in between hungry soul kisses and heavy breathing.......

I slipped her panties down and off and I unzippered my trousers and let them drop to the floor..

"Oh my..." she said...

I pulled her to me, still kissing her and entered Olivia slowly and softly...Kissing her and opening her blouse, unhooking her bra...

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh...ouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.."she moaned as we continued to kiss and moan and make love...

"We are going to get caught one day...."she whispered..as I sucked on her breasts....and kissed her neck and chin...She leaned her head back and moaned softly...

"Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" she moaned as I continued to thrust in and out of her...

"Not today.....Bev and Nelson are upstairs probably doing the same thing."I said.

"Yeah,but they're upstairs "said Olivia in between sensual kisses and love making..
