This CP took a few tries to get right as I\u2019m usually good with describing my initial thoughts but it was all over the place even for me. Mainly because each of these photos were going to be separate ideas but neither had much to go on, until I thought about combining them both into one idea. That became my lightbulb moment.<\/p>\n

The woman is someone of importance and power in an organization and her particular kink is in temping men, especially married ones, and then black mailing them into doing things for her, usually illegal things. This ends up helping her business\/power, which will need more fleshing out as we develop her character more and tweak this blackmail idea some so it\u2019s more impactful and threatening.<\/p>\n

The beard guy, (who we\u2019ll assume is the same in both pics for this CP idea) is a former Special Forces guy (hence the full beard still) and has now joined the CIA for reasons that can be explored\/developed during the story but it\u2019s a mystery at the start. He ends up as an undercover agent for the CIA in the woman\u2019s organization and he gets assigned as her personal bodyguard.<\/p>\n

He’s highly skilled and no pushover (main character energy) and she recognizes talent when she sees it, so he gets a fast-track promotion. Maybe he did something to save her life already.<\/p>\n

But others in her organization don\u2019t fully trust him yet (rightfully as he\u2019s a spy) and so he\u2019s put in compromising situations to test his loyalty.<\/p>\n

Some of the guys she sleeps with\/seduces are guys he knows from his time in the military. Some of them are married with families or otherwise good guys.<\/p>\n

Or so he thought.<\/p>\n

He realizes pretty quickly that he\u2019s not cut out for the spy business with all the lying and double-crossing and he was better as a pipe-hitter.<\/p>\n

Whether he can get out alive now would be one of the story plots.<\/p>\n
