Dark Desire - Part 2 of 4

The girl said, ‘Hi I am Helen Goldsmith. I want to open a bank account here.’ Tony gave her a slow sexy smile. He said, ‘Why don’t you sit down? I will get the form. But have you got the necessary documents?’
Helen looked blank and said ‘What documents?’ Tony sighed and said, ‘You will need a Id proof, reference, address proof.’ Helen said, ‘For reference, my father is an account holder here. His name is Reuben Goldsmith.’
Tony stiffened to attention. Reuben Goldsmith was a big shot industrialist. His daughter opening an account meant big business for the bank. Adding extra honey in his voice, Tony said, ‘Madam I will come over to your home tomorrow and collect all the documents. If you please let me know your address.’
Helen gave him her address. She lived in the nearby posh residential area. Tony fixed an appointment for next day morning and sent her on her way. When she stood up to leave all the men in the bank collectively stared at her back till she moved out of the door. Then excitement over, they sighed and went back to their monotonous jobs. Richard sighed and said in an undertone to Tony, ‘You lucky dog. Getting such an attractive client!’
Tony gave a laugh a hyena would have envied. Then he said, ‘Do you know who she is? She is Reuben Goldsmith’s daughter and a successful model! She also has a reputation of being snooty and arrogant. She will treat me like dirt! I will go to her home tomorrow and open an account for her and with that my association with her would be over!’
Just then there was a wave of customers that came in and they became busy with the day’s business. That evening after reaching home, while Kate was preparing the dinner, he had hid her door keys in the clothes cupboard drawer. Then pretending to check the cupboard, he said, ‘Here is the key! It must have fallen off while you were taking money from the drawer yesterday.’ Kate was suitably contrite and was extra nice to him for accusing him regarding the keys. Tony felt good that he had won at least this round of their fight. He lost most their fights and he savored his sweet victory for once.
That night while eating dinner, Tony switched on to the news on TV to take his mind off the food. Kate had prepared Yorkshire pudding and roast beef. The beef was overcooked while the pudding was flat. Tony started to eat. The news anchor was giving out the breaking news in an excited voice. There was serial killer on the loose. He was targeting young girls and was killing them after raping them. Three such dead bodies have been recovered from the garden, from a park and from a seedy apartment house which was mainly occupied by call girls. They had all been brutally stabbed to death. The killer was clearly a psychopath. Tony turned towards Kate and warned her to be careful and not to go out after dark. After dinner Tony watched the news for some more time while Kate got ready for bed. Half an hour later Kate called, ‘Are you coming to bed?’
With a grin of anticipation on his face, Tony switched off the television and went into the bedroom closing the door behind him. Next morning before going to the office, he decided to drop into Helen Goldsmith’s home. Kate called him back while leaving and gave him an umbrella as it was raining that morning. He called Helen up once more and then on getting her permission, dropped in to the apartment where she was staying. To his surprise, she opened the door herself. She had clearly just woken up and was wearing a transparent night dress which left very little to the imagination. Tony felt extremely embarrassed and felt his throat dry up on seeing her almost naked beautiful body. She gave him a slow sexy smile which showed that she was aware of the effect she was having on him. Running a finger through her silky hair she said, ‘Sorry I slept late last night. Do come in.’ Then she noticed the dripping umbrella in his hand. She said, ‘Oh is it raining outside? Please keep the umbrella here in this corner.’ Putting down the umbrella, he sat in the ultra-modern yet tastefully decorated drawing room. It seemed that she was alone in the apartment. He was a bit surprised. As if she could read his mind she said, ‘I do not stay with my parents. Please wait for a few minutes.’
She left him and came back wearing a dressing gown over her night dress. Feeling more at ease Tony asked her to sign the documents. She sat so close to him that he could smell the perfume of her hair. Her proximity overwhelmed him and he felt like grabbing her and kissing her. But knowing the consequences he kept himself in tight control. He closed his eyes and tried to think of Kate but she seemed so remote. Helen’s sexuality was hitting him very hard and he had great difficulty in maintaining control over himself.
