Chapter 28: The Call

 Ray walked the president back to the podium to make his speech. He was nervous but he felt like he had taken enough measures to make sure that Loki's security is not compromised. He made sure that all the press members were checked and double-checked as they entered. A background search was done and anyone who had a shaddy one wasn't permitted inside the building. Ray was not going to take any chances. Loki took to the stage and started his address.

Meanwhile, Jason was in the office calling Tyler while Athena worked on her desk.

"Hey, I need you to do something" Jason said

"Alright I'm listening" Tyler replied

"I've sent you something in your email. Check it out"Jason told him

"Give me a moment" Tyler told him as he checked his account. "Ok I've found it and already going through it."

"How fast can you get that done?" Jason asked

"Go get yourself a cup of coffee and when you get back check your mail" Tyler replied as he got to typing

Jason stood up from his chair and went to where Athena was working, he walked up to behind her and put his hands on her shoulders and started massaging her.

"What's gotten into you?" She asked as she leaned back into her chair

"Nothing. I just thought that you're a little tired from all the trips you've been making to the bank. I'm sure you're a bit sore and maybe have some knots here and there"Jason said as his hand went behind her back and started rubbing it. Athena was loving every single moment that Jason had his hands on her

"When you put it like that, it does sound true. Boy how I wish I could get just a massage in a dim lit room, some scented candles and some oil" Athena said as she closed her eyes

"I know a guy who can do that"Jason said as he stopped slowly

"I'm going to take a bet that it's not you" Athena said

"It's not me, I know a good... Wait a minute, what do you mean it can't be me?" Jason asked as he raised her head from behind and looked into her eyes

"I'm just saying, I highly doubt that West's hands can be good at that. You just don't seem like the type to do it" Athena said as Jason gently grabbed her by the throat. His hand then slowly moved down her neck. His fingers traced down her collar bone making her close her eyes slowly as she enjoyed the feeling. But suddenly he stopped making her open her eyes

"Why did you stop?" She asked

"Well, you said I'm not good at this kind of thing so why should I continue"Jason asked. He then continued tracing his fingers now down to her cleavage making her increase her breathing as her heart started to race. His index moved in small circular motions teasing her with every passing second." Here's a tip, I'm far much better at this than the massage guy." He whispered into her ear

"Why would I need to pay for a massage when I can get it from you?" She whispered back

"So suddenly you have confidence in me? What do I get in return?" He asked

"A good review" she replied with a smile

"Nice try" he responded as he touched her bra and then slowly started backing away

"Okay you win. You get anything you want." She said

"I won't tell you that now. Maybe later" Jason said as he stopped and went in for a kiss but stopped when he was inches away from her lips. He looked into her eyes which were craving for him and he saw the chance to tease her even more. His hand went inside her blouse and in between her boobs slowly with his eyes still locked on to hers. His hand went lower to her navel and teased her some more. She had every nerve on her body telling her to close her eyes and let out a moan but the stare she got from Jason dared her to. It was as if she was under a spell. She felt his hand go down below her navel and touch her trouser's button. Her hand gripped her chair as she knew what he was about to do. Like out of reflex, her other hand went to her tummy and gripped his hand. She wanted to tell him to stop but her mind betrayed her. Jason could read every thought that was going through her head.

Athena gasped for a breath, she wanted to speak but Jason was not going to have her do it easily. After a few tries she managed to get some air,

"We....lllllll.... Since that is settled. How, how.... How, about you give me that massage one day" she managed to say

Jason leaned in to get ear and asked," How about tonight?"

That's all she wanted to hear. She wanted him to continue but Jason stopped and withdrew his hand slowly from her blouse. To her it was one of those moments when a child would have a lollipop taken from their mouth and be left to cry all day for it.

"Yes please" she whispered

That's when Jason decided to drive her crazy with lust. He simply replied as he breathed down her neck and place a kiss on her neck," Get ready to experience heaven"

Athena nearly passed out, she could feel herself getting hot but also get wet at the same time but then Jason left her and went back to his seat like nothing happened. She just looked at him the way a mom would look at their child just before they are about to scold them. Jason picked his phone and redialed Tyler's number.

"Is it done?" He asked Tyler immediately Tyler picked up the call

"Yes, all the details are in your mailbox" Tyler answered

"And about the phone?" He asked again

"That's also done. It'll go active the moment you make the next phone call" Tyler responded

"Great. And thank you" Jason replied

"Always welcome. And Jason, do what you do best" Tyler said as he ended the call

Athena received a call and after talking for a while she looked like she had just gotten some depressing news. Jason could read it from her eyes that she was about to shout into the phone but she held back. She ended the call and looked at him hopelessly

"Another bank errand?" Jason asked

"Yep" she answered

"You're really going to need that massage at the end of the day" Jason said as he sank back to his chair

"You got that right. I have to go nearly halfway across the city to check on something" Athena said

"You can't do that from your desk?" Jason asked

"Apparently it's part of bank policy that the client or the client's representative goes there physically" Athena said as she got up from her seat and picked up her coat from the chair

"Well don't forget your evening appointment because you only get it once. More of a once in a lifetime offer" Jason said

" I wouldn't miss that for the world. I'll be back before you know it. Seven sharp, my place." She said as she left the office

Jason waited for about five minutes to ensure that she was gone and wouldn't be back. He opened his mailbox and all the info that he had requested from Tyler was there. He kinda liked the way Tyler operated, he was fast and he was good. He then dialed the number sent to him by Tyler.

Meanwhile, at the hospital the president was in mid speech when Ray received a call, being far from camera view he saw no harm in checking who it was. From the moment he looked at the screen he knew something was off, he saw an odd number on the screen. And not just odd as in odd,it was just one number '1' on the screen

Nothing more, that was the phone number, not that it made sense but it was almost impossible for that to happen. When he was about to pick it up the number changed. Now it was '2' making all the alarms in his head ring. Almost immediately the number changed again, now to '3'

Ray looked around the room but didn't see anything out of line so he decided to pick it

"Hello" Ray said

"Hello Commander" Jason replied." I hope I haven't startled you"
