Chapter 37

The next few days Ysabelle got acquainted with the girls, though I could immediately tell she got along the best with Brooke. I wondered if I influenced that. Girls get attached to those they experiment first with.

The second we made it to The Gala, Brooke took Ysabelle to the bathroom, just how she was supposed to. I circulated the room, mingling with everyone, and then I saw him.

Mika.

I ignored him and turned to find the girls. As soon as the three gentlemen saw Ysabelle, they wanted her. It was going to be a great night…unfortunately, I spoke to soon.

Ysabelle made a complete fool of herself and, God, if it didn’t make me want to put her over my knee.

“Can you excuse us, gentlemen?” I announced to them, not looking at Ysabelle.

She followed me to an office where I leaned against the desk, crossing my ankles. She wrung her hands and dropped her head, waiting for the storm. And it only further pissed me off.

“What are you doing? Drop your hands and look at me. Do you want to be here, Ysabelle? Have I not made myself perfectly clear about everything, and what is expected from you? Do you think for one second that any of this behavior you’re exhibiting right now, will be tolerated? If you would rather go back to earning not even half of what you are truly worth, then the damn door is behind you.” I let out a loud frustrated sigh and composed myself.

I didn’t need to make her feel any worse than she already did, even though I wanted to. I had to hold back and not be too hard on her, and it was one of the toughest things I ever had to do.

“Now…are you ready?” I tested. If she answered no, I couldn’t be held responsible for what I was going to do.

“Yes. I’m fine. I promise.”

I smiled a deviant little smile as I walked toward her. I circled her and moved her hair from the front of her shoulder to her back. “Who’s holding the control, Bella Rosa?” I asked in my domineering tone.

“I am,” she replied.

“That’s my girl, now you’re going to put these nerves to rest and show these men how confident you are. You’ve got the looks. You’ve got the body, and you need to have the confidence, my beautiful girl. I want to see you express that authority. Do you understand me, Ysabelle?” I asked, raising my voice and causing her to jump a little.

Learn one thing; your children need to fear you. It’s a part of parenting.

“I’m sorry, Madam. Of course, I understand everything,” she replied with more confidence.

“You are in control. You don’t ever forget that. These men do not pay for a little girl.”

She learned right then and there that I was to be respected. I didn’t fuck around and she needed to pick and choose her battles. She decided at that moment that I was her Madam.

“I’m ready, Madam,” she promised.

“Follow me,” I ordered.

I left her in Brooke’s room to observe her, but also to get her wet.

A hand grabbed my upper arm and pulled me into the adjoining room.

“Who the hell-” I shouted and stopped when I saw Mika’s smirking face.

“I’m working. Can I help you?”

He leaned on the dresser and crossed his arms and ankles. “You know, Angel, I’m not going to say that my feelings aren’t hurt a little because they are.”

I rolled my eyes. “What the fuck are you going on about?”

“Why didn’t you offer her to me?” he questioned.

“What?”

“The new girl, Ysabelle. I want her.” He smiled.

I laughed. “Well you can’t have her. She’s already taken.”

“I’ll pay three times as much as her suitor did.”

“No,” I hastily responded.

He cocked his head to the side. “Really? Since when do you turn down money or give a fuck who I play with. Our relationship is supposed to stay the same, says you. Well guess what? I want her. Make it happen. I’ll even let you watch. I know how much you love to watch, Angel. ”

I swallowed the lump in my throat. “I don’t have time for this. She is already taken; it has nothing to do with you.”

“All right, then I want her tomorrow or the next time she is available,” he spoke with conviction.

“No,” was all I could reply.

“Why?” he countered.

I walked right up to him. “Because, Ysabelle is made for other things. I will never allow you to have her.”

“I don’t understand. Since when do you give a flying fuck where I stick my cock? I have been with almost all the VIPs, she’s up next.”

“I don’t have time for this. It’s not happening, now or ever. Don’t worry about it, Mika. I’ll make it up to you, and I will throw in free VIPs just for you.”

“Why are you being so possessive over her?”

I leaned in close to his lips, and seductively traced them while looking into his eyes. “Because…she’s mine.” I turned and left.

As soon as I closed the door, I leaned my entire body weight on it, feeling like my legs were going to give out. I took three deep breaths and composed myself before walking back to get Ysabelle.

She turned and saw me quietly wave for her to join me from the cracked door.

“Are we good now, Ysabelle?” I didn’t have to ask. Her eyes were dilated and dark.

“Absolutely.”

“Fabulous. Darling, we had a little bit of a bidding war with our men this evening. It seems as though the gentlemen all want a piece of the action,” I boasted, raising my eyebrows.

Up until Mika decided to cloud my judgment, I was thrilled with the outcome for her first time. I couldn’t wait to watch her in action, not because of the arousal, but from the power and control she was about to realize she held all this time.

“I didn’t want to overwhelm you too much for your first time, so we came up with a happy medium. Gabriel wants you more, he paid top dollar for you. Here’s the catch…the rest of the men get to watch.” I paused for a moment to let her soak in my words.

“Don’t you worry your pretty little head; it’s only the three suitors you met downstairs. And me of course. I wouldn’t leave you alone, my pet, at least not your first time, don’t fret.” I paused and looked at her directly in the eyes to make sure I was understood.

“No one is allowed to touch you other than Gabriel,” I explained.

She was intimidated. I knew she didn’t want to make the same mistake and disappoint me again. It pleased me that she was more nervous about me than she was about the men.

I needed to reassure her. “Bella, my love. Stop worrying about pleasing me, and focus on pleasing yourself. This is about you, and nobody else.”

We walked into the room and the three gentlemen sat center stage waiting for her. I never said a word. I went to a bistro table in the corner, trying to make myself as invisible as possible. This wasn’t about me; it was about her.

I watched with an incredible amount of pride on my face, I was sure. The way she took control but submitted to him all at the same time was absolutely perfect. I couldn’t have asked her to do a better job.

All three men were stroking themselves.

“Yes…yes…just like that…I’m coming…I’m coming…” she begged while coming undone.

I smiled. I know I have said this time and time again; however, you truly need to understand. I couldn’t reiterate it enough.

VIPs aren’t made; they’re born.

He moved her to the bed and laid her on her back in the middle.

This was it. She could never go back from this.

She opened her eyes to find Gabriel smiling above her with the most satisfied smirk on his face. She turned her face and caught me leaving through the slits in her overactive eyes. I smiled at her with a wink as I exited the room.

I didn’t have to watch to know that he fucked her and she loved it.

Our limo ride home was quiet. Ysabelle’s mind was racing.

“Penny for your thoughts?” I questioned.

“Mmm hmm.”

“Care to share, Bella Rosa?”

“I was just thinking I feel pleased…excited. I’m on a high right now. Does that make sense?”

“Perfectly.” I reached into my clutch and retrieved a white envelope. This was going to make it so much better.

“This, Bella Rosa, will make you feel even higher.” She opened it and there, before her very eyes, were hundreds and hundreds of bills. She had never seen that much money before.

“It’s $80,000.” Her mouth dropped open.

“You made $160,000 tonight; Gabriel paid $100,000 to be your first client. I charged the other suitors a measly $20,000, forgive me for that, Bella Rosa, I had to entice them regarding the price. I promise you, they will pay more for you later; that I can assure you. Enjoy it, as you will never forget your first time.”

And I meant every fucking word.
