Confiding in a Colleague

James was sat at his desk at work trying not to think about the weirdness of Rebecca's threats but still strangely distracted by them when he heard a familiar voice from behind him.

"Hey, you okay? You seem pretty distracted?"

James turned around to see Gemma, his co-worker smiling at him. She was an attractive blonde haired woman in her late twenties with a beautiful curvaceous figure that that office wear she had chosen was designed to highlight.

"Yeah, I'm fine. I just met some weirdo on a dating app and she sent me a freaky message"

"Oh, that sounds like a fun story. Why don't we head to the park for lunch and you can tell me more!"

Some time later James and Gemma were sat opposite each other on the grass and James was recounting the apparent curse.

"Wow, I've had some scary stuff sent to me by guys I've rejected but that takes the biscuit" Gemma laughed "Still, we have to test this out right?"

"Cut it out Gemma, it's not that funny"

"Hey, come on! In the interests of science. Or witchcraft or whatever" Gemma continued to tease before holding out her finger and moving it from left to right.

"I am totally hypnotising you James" Gemma joked "You are under my control now. You will do whatever I say from now on"

"I am under your control now, I will do whatever you say from now on" James repeated a little robotically.

"Yeah, right" Gemma rolled her eyes "If that's true then transfer all the money from your bank account into mine"

"Yes Mistress Gemma, I will transfer all my money to you"

James reached for his phone and began tapping on some buttons.

"You are so full of shit" Gemma sighed.

"What are your account number and sort code"

Gemma decided to play along and obliged. Moments later James stopped tapping and her phone buzzed. It was her bank app. Gemma was gobsmacked to see that James had transferred more than two thousand pounds into her account. They weren't close enough for him to trust her to repay him that amount of money. Perhaps this wasn't a joke.

"Holy shit James, you did it!"

James looked even more shocked at this development than Gemma. It seemed that Rebecca wasn't lying. He was now completely under his colleagues control. He just had to hope she didn't plan on abusing her new power.
