Ch: 5 [Enter the Rhino]

AN: Don't get angry. The first sex scene will be interesting, that's a promise.

******

I am going to have sex with her right here on my desk if things get any hotter between us. But this isn't right.

Despite having all those urges to take her right there, I controlled my urges. I took up her jacket and threw it on her naked body.

"Wha-"

"First, let me apologize for going with the flow. As tempting as it may be. Well, too tempting. Anyway, put on your clothes..." I said, trying to calm my nerves. Anyone in my position would have jumped on to take advantage of the situation, and right now, probably would have started fucking her.

But, this... This isn't right. Fuck! Me. What am I doing?

"I don't know what kind of troubles you are going through right now," I adjusted my clothes and continued, "But I hate people who use their sexuality as a tool to get what they want. I don't know your reason behind doing this nor do I know how much money problem you have. Tell me, do you even have an ounce of self-respect?"

Gwen opened her mouth to respond, but no words came out. She just stared at me in disbelief. Then, she broke eye contact and looked down at the ground. It was obvious that she didn't expect me to react like this. After all, most guys would be happy to see a gorgeous girl like her undress before them.

She bit her lower lip gently, then said softly, "I... I am sorry for trying to seduce you."

There was a slight tremor in her voice, betraying her confidence from earlier.

She continued, "But self-respect? You think I don't have any?"

"What else could explain someone using their body as a means to get ahead in life?" I responded with a hint of disappointment in my tone. "It's okay if you are desperate for money or anything else. But when it comes to sex... I would very much prefer to do it with someone I love."

Gwen raised her head slightly, looking up at me with an expression of confusion. There was a sparkle of curiosity in her green eyes, almost as if she couldn't believe what I had just said.

Then, she laughed lightly and shook her head. "Wow! What a turnaround!"

As she spoke, she pulled on her coat and put it back on. The look of shock on her face was priceless. It seemed like she really did not expect me to reject her advances. After all, most men would gladly take advantage of such opportunities.

However, I didn't want to be one of them.

"Why is that funny?" I asked curiously.

Gwen replied, "You rejected me after I offered myself to you. Isn't that pretty crazy? Most people would jump at the chance to have sex with a girl offering themselves up of their own free will."

I narrowed my gaze slightly, raising an eyebrow as I stared into her eyes. She looked away from me quickly, avoiding eye contact once more. Then, she got up from her seat and adjusted her clothes.

"Well, Brian," Gwen said softly, looking down at the ground. "Thanks for letting me know how you feel about this whole situation. I guess I shouldn't have tried to seduce you... I must look like a cheap whore to you. But self-respect alone won't provide food on the table."

Her voice trailed off as she turned towards the door. Her shoulders slumped forward in defeat, revealing her dejected state.

"8:30 AM sharp, black suit, no ties or sexy dress," I called out before she could leave.

Gwen stopped dead in her tracks and slowly turned around to face me again. There was a spark of hope in her eyes now, but it soon faded as she saw my serious expression.

"You are hired," I stated bluntly. "And, I am going to pay you an advance salary of 6 months. So, make sure that you get ready for your first day tomorrow morning."

A broad grin spread across Gwen's face as she ran toward me and threw her arms around me. I can hear her muffle cry of excitement against my chest. She is definitely happy right now. And, so am I.

But there is still one thing bothering me. How bad is her financial condition for her to go so far as to sell her body for work without any hesitation?

After we hugged each other for a moment, Gwen pulled away from me and gave me a quick peck on the cheek. It felt good feeling her soft lips against my skin.

"Thank you, Brian," She said happily before walking out of my office.

I smiled softly as I watched her leave. Then, I sat back in my chair and leaned back with a sigh. My mind was filled with thoughts about what had just happened between us. The interview ended up being more interesting than I expected! But, why did she try to seduce me? Is it really because of financial problems? Or maybe something else...

The truth is, I don't know much about this new version of Gwen Stacy except for her superhero career.

The day went as usual, as I interviewed the remaining people and hired them for my new restaurant that will be opening in two months.

---

The next morning, as I arrived at the office, I noticed Gwen already seated at her desk, diligently going through some documents. She looked up and smiled as she saw me enter.

"Good morning, Brian," she greeted me warmly.

"Good morning, Gwen," I replied, returning her smile. "How are you settling in?"

Gwen nodded, her expression focused. "I'm getting acquainted with the tasks and responsibilities. Thank you for the advance salary, by the way. It means a lot to me."

"You're welcome, Gwen," I said sincerely. "I believe in giving people a second chance, and I hope you'll prove yourself here."

Gwen's eyes sparkled with determination. "I won't let you down, Brian. I'm grateful for this opportunity, and I'll work hard to prove myself."

Over the next few weeks, Gwen proved to be a valuable asset to the finance department. She displayed exceptional skills in financial management and analysis, demonstrating her expertise in budgeting, reporting, and strategic planning. It became evident that her qualifications were not just a façade to impress during the interview but were backed up by genuine talent and dedication.

As we worked together closely, I also noticed another side of Gwen. She was diligent, reliable, and genuinely cared about making a positive impact. She actively sought ways to optimize processes, improve efficiency, and contribute to the growth of the organization. It was clear that her passion extended beyond personal gain and encompassed a genuine desire to make a difference.

Over time, I grew to respect and admire Gwen for her resilience and commitment. It became evident that she had faced her own challenges and was determined to overcome them. I realized that judging her solely based on one desperate act would have been unfair and dismissive of her potential.

Gwen and I developed a professional rapport and mutual respect. We worked together seamlessly, collaborating on projects and sharing ideas. Our initial encounter during the interview became a distant memory, replaced by a deeper understanding and appreciation for each other's abilities and character.

Today, we decided to buy the equipment for my new restaurant. Since it's a 5-star restaurant, I prefer to personally buy them to ensure the quality and suitability of the items. Gwen accompanied me on this task, as she had extensive knowledge in finance and could help me make informed decisions.

As Gwen and I visited various suppliers and reviewed different equipment options, her expertise proved invaluable. She provided valuable insights into the financial aspects, helping me make cost-effective decisions without compromising on quality. Her attention to detail and analytical skills were impressive, and I appreciated having her by my side throughout the process.

As we discussed the options and compared prices, Gwen's professionalism and commitment were evident. She wasn't just concerned with finding the best deals but also ensuring that the equipment met the restaurant's specific needs. We carefully considered factors such as durability, functionality, and energy efficiency.

During our interactions, I also noticed Gwen's passion for culinary arts. She had a keen interest in food and flavors, which complemented her financial acumen. Her input extended beyond the financial aspects, as she shared ideas on the layout of the kitchen, equipment placement, and potential cost-saving measures without compromising operational efficiency.

While she was sharing her opinions and our best options, my eyes were on her beautiful smile and bright green eyes. There is something about her that's drawing me to her. My heart beats faster when I am with her. The way she moves her curls from her face while talking indicates a certain level of confidence and grace.

Man, I am so falling for her.

But, sadly, a loud explosion across the street interrupted our conversation, jolting us out of our focus. The noise was followed by screams and commotion. We exchanged alarmed glances and quickly rushed to the nearest window to see what was happening.

To our horror, we saw thick smoke rising from a building just across the street. Flames danced against the darkening sky, engulfing the structure in a fierce inferno. It was a chaotic scene, with people running and emergency vehicles converging on the scene.

As Gwen and I watched in disbelief, a massive armored suit burst through the wall of the burning building. It was the Rhino, a well-known supervillain in the city. The Rhino's powerful and imposing figure loomed over the chaos, causing panic among the crowd.
