Helen hears a voice

Just as Helen was left pondering her next move, she thought she heard a voice. The voice was feminine and sultry, but it certainly was not Steph's voice or her own. Helen instinctively turned her head around the office in search for the source of the voice. To her dismay, she only ended up with a few messy strands of brown hair caught on her face.

Just when Helen was about to dismiss the voice as a brief hallucination, the voice resurfaced. It was louder this time, and Helen was able to comprehend the words. "Why wOuldn'T aDAm paY Any ATTenTIOn to ME? EVery GuY HAS fAlLEN FOR me WheNeVer i GiVE tHEM SomEthinG To THinK aBOuT. EvERyOnE...EXcEPt foR ADaM."

As soon as the voice finished its brief invective, Helen felt a strong wave of frustration welling within her. Soon, she was swept up in this anger, even if it wasn't hers to begin with. Caught in the heated moment, Helen felt compelled to quickly get up and storm over to Adam's desk.

Adam was just about to turn on his desktop when he heard incoming furious clacks from heels stomping the marble floor. Right when Adam looked up to check, he was greeted with a milky, plump thigh just a couple inches from his nose tip. It didn't take long for Adam to recognize whose thigh it was, as it immediately brought him back to the meeting, the tease, and his erection. As if right on cue, his manhood faced upwards to mirror its owner.

Having propped her leg onto Adam's desk, Helen allowed her tight grey dress to ride up to a dangerous level. It was enough to expose much of her skin without revealing the most important part, allowing Adam to whiff the unique mixture of Steph's light perfume and her natural scent. Adam simply looked flabbergasted, unsure on how to proceed. He wasn't alone, as this commotion clearly caught every coworker's attention, as all eyes were pointed towards Adam's desk.

Helen's hands swiftly grabbed Adam's collar in a chokehold and pulled him up from his seat. Eyeing the confused and terrified Adam from a menacing look, Helen began, "Why didn't you respond to my text?! Don't you know that when life gives you a bombshell, you best cash it in quickly?!"

"Steph?! What has gotten into you? What did I do this time?" was all Adam could muster.

"What you did...was leave me hanging." Leaning in close to Adam's face, Helen continued, "Or perhaps I am just not good enough for you, hmm?" Adam was **** to turn away as he felt Helen's hot breath diffusing across his face.

"But Steph, I already got..." Adam began before letting out a decent yelp. Helen briskly released Adam's collar. But before Adam fell back into his chair, Helen masterfully sank Steph's fingers into the gusset of Adam's pants, holding his guilty member hostage.

"And what's this?" Helen whispered in a softer but menacing tone. "I didn't know that you were such a coward, Adam. Don't tell me that this doesn't mean anything!"

Adam's face was completely flushed as soon as he was held by the balls. He frantically looked around to see all his coworkers staring at him and Steph. Some were even whispering to one another, enjoying the new gossip they have just found. Looking back at Steph, he knew that he must have done something terribly wrong to piss her off so much. Adam had never seen Steph so incensed, as she tended to be one of most composed employees in the office. Sensing that the current environment was getting very uncomfortable, Adam quickly muttered, "Here, Steph. Let's go the break room first. I think we're disturbing the rest of the floor here."

As Adam was going through his emotional turmoil, Helen was, surprisingly, dealing with a similar struggle during their conversation. While a part of her was heavily influenced by seemingly unfounded anger, the other part kept a more rational stance. Needless to say, her recent actions were out of character, as Helen no longer felt in full control of her actions. Even Steph herself would not condone such actions, as Steph's memories portrayed Steph as a obedient and respectful girl. Sure, Steph was ambitious, as Helen could see Steph's wild dreams of quickly rising the corporate letter, but Steph would never resort to aggressive flirtations to achieve her goals. Deciding to dig deeper, Helen's rational mind dove further into the recesses of Steph's subconsciousness.

To Helen's surprise, she quickly met up with two other figures within the mind. One was Steph herself, as she simply lay comatose on the dreamlike mist. The other figure looked similar to Steph in all but its head. Instead of seeing Steph's beautiful face, it was simply replaced by the head of a Trojan horse. This figure was mostly motionless except for its mouth, which kept emanating the same voice that Helen heard earlier.

At first, Helen stood dumbstruck as this mysterious figure. In her previous possessions, she had never witnessed this Trojan figure. The only association she could make was the Trojan thoughts spell she had cast earlier on Steph. It seemed to a correct guess, as Helen could see words of her spell written in wisp clouds traveling towards the Trojan figure. However, there was also another stream of words. This stream was traveling from deep within the subconscious realm, and the words there simply echoed Steph's ambitious nature and pride. These two streams of thought seemed to mix within the Trojan figure, who simply repeated the same sentences over and over again: "AdAM should HavE aLReAdy FALleN fOR me. tHere IS NOThing i cAn'T AcHieVE If i pUT My eFfOrT InTo IT. wHY woN't ADAM Pay atTeNTiOn TO me?" Realizing this, Helen was immediately horrified by her earlier actions. She just wanted to provoke a trivial reaction from Adam with the Trojan thoughts spell, but the residual thoughts planted in Steph's mind merged with her ambitious nature, resulting in the perfect storm that was brewing in front of Helen's very eyes and made Helen lose voluntary control over Steph's body. As an outsider, Helen simply didn't have many options to override this Trojan abomination that was feeding off Steph's subconscious desires.

But as hopeless as it may be, Helen knew she had to try something. Peering into the outside world, Helen saw Adam leading her in Steph's body to the break room. Thankful that her boyfriend was able to prevent further disaster, Helen immediately brainstormed possible methods to break out of this predicament. Should she try dissolving the Trojan thoughts spell, even though she can't quite remember the instructions to do so? Should she try waking up Steph's conscious mind? Or should Helen just hop out of Steph's body, knowing that she was the root cause?
