“Welcome to the retreat Mr. Williams.” the woman in the fur said as I stepped out of the limo and onto the crisp snow.

As she walked over to me there was a line of similarly clad, and buxom, women standing in line behind revealed and she hooked her arm through mine.

“My name is Vanessa, but of course if you’d like to refer to me in some other way that will be completely acceptable.” she continued as we walked towards the massive modern looking lodge nestled in the high mountain air.

“I will be your personal assistant for the weekend, available 24 hours a day for any tasks you require me for.” she finished as we approached the impressive staircase leading up to the main lodge.

I nodded and smiled, “How long do we have before the first session?” I asked.

“Just over three hours Mr. Williams. Most of the guests are just arriving now, but we expect to start on time.”

As we entered the lodge another gorgeous blonde took Vanessa’s fur from her shoulders and put it into the coat check. Vanessa caught me looking at the blonde’s ass.

“Of course, if I’m not to your liking we have many other PA’s that you can choose from.”

I turned back to look Vanessa right in the eyes, “Oh no, you’ll do just fine.” I replied with a wicked grin.

We proceeded towards the staircase, Vanessa guiding me towards my room, “Thank you Mr. Williams, I’m glad that I am able to meet your needs.” she replied simply.

As we arrived at the staircase, a poster was setup beside it, “The Retreat: How to manipulate global financial systems to our advantage”

I chuckled a little, it was really just a pretense for the richest and most powerful people in the world to get together and brag about their latest successes. None of them, including myself, would have been recognized by the public, we preferred to keep ourselves hidden in the background.

A few years ago one of the attendee’s had introduced us to the chip that was in Vanessa’s head, along with the other PA’s. By itself it wasn’t much good for anything but the most brute force of changes, but that was one of the things that this gathering was about. With that hardware and my software, the chip went from brutish to sublime in just a few months.

We had considered releasing it into the wild, it certainly would have fixed many problems, but our cost/benefit analysis showed it was more profitable to let those problems persist.

I slipped my arm around Vanessa’s waist and then rested my hand on her ass as we walked down the hallway towards my room, a smile on my lips. While we had kept the chip to ourselves, it didn’t mean that we didn’t get value from it, on the contrary.

Many of the attendee’s had chipped their wives, assistants, mistresses, and others, turning them into perfect version of themselves. Or at least perfect version according to the attendee.

We arrived in my room and closed the door behind us, I looked at Vanessa once more and then spoke, “Override, Williams204916.”

Vanessa gasped and her eyes fluttered for a moment before her head fell forwards and her chin hit her chest. A moment later her head raised up and she stared straight ahead, “Awaiting command Sir.”

“How many other units are onsite?” I asked.

“37 Sir.” she replied.

“Turn around, expose your neck.” I commanded and she did so.

I pulled out my phone and held it up to the back of her neck, the closest spot to the chip, and then uploaded the payload. Once it was done I put my phone back away, “Turn back around and let your hair down.”

She complied and stood silently.

“Ensure that each of the other units get the upload as quickly as possible.”

“Yes Sir.”

“Good. End override.”

Her eyes fluttered for a moment and then life returned to them, “I’m sorry Mr. Williams… did you say something?”

I shook my head, “No, but I think you have something to do, don’t you?”

She titled her head to the side and looked confused for a moment and then smiled, “Oh, yes Mr. Williams I do. If you’ll excuse me, I’
ll be back as quickly as I can.”

“Of course, see you soon.” I replied and she quickly made her exit.

As for myself, I took a seat in front of the TV and relaxed. In a few hours every unit would be infected with the new code and before the weekend was over I’d have every secret that the other attendee’s had.
