I spied her form around the corner lying back with the bubbles churning around her. Her eyes were closed and I could see the makings of her breasts underneath the water. I was lured with promises of pleasure and I was chewing on my bottom lip with this nervous energy in the air. It didn’t take much to notice her clothes were gone and she didn’t bring a bathing suit.
“I know you’re there, Nicholas and you may as well come out into the open where I can see you.” Taking a deep breath, I moved to confront her in the hopes that my words would convince her to stand down, but this wasn’t going to end until she said so.
I was about to chastise her for her behavior, but then my mouth stopped moving altogether when she stood with the water dancing on her skin. I was tongue-tied, speechless and unable to come up with a suitable adjective to describe her body.
“I can’t believe I’m doing this and I’m afraid it’s going to be up to you to put a stop to this.” All roads were leading to her symmetrical body and I couldn’t stop myself from taking off my shirt. I was naked from the waist up and she was hooking her finger to make me come closer until she could get her hands on me.
“I have no intention of stopping anything, Nicholas and neither should you. We are away from the rest of the world and nobody can see us. I want what I couldn’t have because I thought it was wrong.” Her skin was supple and her long hair matted by the water. It was making her look like a vixen in training.
“I can’t understand the reason why you would want me instead of someone more deserving of the way you look at me.” She was undoing my belt, taking it off and wrapping it around my neck like a makeshift leash and there was nothing I wanted to do about it. She used the belt to pull me in for a long drawn out kiss that had me standing at full salute.
“There’s really only one thing you need to remember. A woman has needs, but we are more subtle about how we go about satisfying them. I find it sometimes necessary to beat the man over the top of the head and drag him back to my cave to get what I want. It’s useless to be coy and very rarely does a man know when a woman is interested.” I was oblivious most of the time, but that was part of my charm.
I stepped away long enough to take off my pants from around my ankles. This was the moment of truth, but then I realized there was no reason to reveal my hand. I swung my leg over the side and slid into the scalding water up past my waist. Once that was accomplished, I took off my underwear and tossed them unceremoniously over the side.
“I’m only a man and I’m sure it doesn’t come as any great surprise that we are thinking about sex a lot more than women. We dream about the strange and the unusually kinky. It’s hard to judge a book by its cover and sometimes you have to delve into the pages to see what is lurking underneath.” Her foot came in contact with my Johnson and she began to manipulate my flesh.
“I’m only a woman and don’t think for a second the way you men look at us goes unnoticed. We don’t wear skimpy outfits because they look good and that’s just one of the added benefits of shopping for something that is going to make their jaw drop to the floor.” Her other foot came across to join the one already in progress and the tight seal of her toes was enough to leave me at a loss for words.
I was sitting there in the steaming hot contents of the water and the way that she was playing my body like a fiddle was more than I could take. I gave in to the feeling, pushing my hips forward and using her toes to excite every part of me. I suddenly grabbed them and brought them to my face, licking each individual toe and sucking them with my eyes on her the entire time.
“Samantha, you make me crazy in a way that I never expected and I apologize beforehand for anything that I might do to offend you.” She didn’t seem put off by the way that I was worshiping her feet and then I swam toward her with my hands separating the gates to her heavenly delights.
I was the human equivalent of a crocodile after its prey and the yawning depths of her sexual depravity were right there in my reach. I had my hands wrapped around her thighs and then I lifted her out of the water long enough to see the bright pink lips inviting me for a closer look.
“I thought you were all about your own pleasure, but maybe I was wrong about you. I think I should take your advice about not judging a book by its cover.” She was spread like a wishbone and my hot breath made her body jerk in response. I put my tongue to work, coming in contact with the pronounced bud and making it dance to a different tune.
“You are so delicious and I don’t know how any man could walk away from a feast like this. A woman demands from a man nothing but his best and I strive to give you the experience of a lifetime. I hope I can measure up to the man who introduced you to the pleasures of the flesh.” It was quite the concept to be with the woman who had just felt what sex was all about by my experienced hands.
I was in my element, delivering a performance to keep her on the edge of sanity and I knew her release was going to be extra sweet on my lips. I could only hope I didn’t break her or make her feel any sort of misery. I didn’t want her to feel like she was just a piece of meat. Because of me, I was afraid she would feel it necessary to extinguish that memory by getting underneath the next available piece of ass.
“It’s not going to be…long and I’m forced to let this continue despite my better judgment.” I was no longer playing it on the safe side, but I was having a hard time trusting what I was feeling deep down inside. I wanted to give her a reason to cry with my name on her lips.
The pain I would see in her eyes after I revealed the truth was enough to cripple me into a shell of what I once was.
I was trying my hardest to make her forget everything about her first time and to take her out of her comfort zone. I wanted this moment to be the one on her lips, but I had a mountain to climb to outdo what had already been done. I was giving her my devotion and I was trying to show her all the reasons why it would be so special to me to have her wake up by my side.
I felt her body begin to show signs of her impending climax and then her pussy began to spout off. Her juices squirted with intensity into my mouth and I was playing with their clit at the same time to enhance the experience. I was trying not to do anything to remind her of the one time we had been together. I was constantly switching things up and trying new techniques to give her no reason to show suspicion in her eyes.
“I wasn’t…expecting…to do this… YESSSSS.” Her hair began to fly in all directions with her head tossing and turning from one side to the other. Her mouth was screaming obscenities and it seemed wrong somehow to hear her swear like a sailor. It was also quite enticing and enough to make me a ravenous animal.
Her juices were succulent, sweet on the tip of my tongue and I couldn’t find the courageous effort to pull away from her. I was desperate to see that reaction again and I pulled her closer with my lips sealed to the very spot where she had just gone off the rails.
“I’m not through with you by a long shot and maybe this will prove to you that there are some men worth taking a chance on.” I was going out of my way to please her and I knew deep down this was my guilt manifesting itself.
“I was…hoping…that you were going to say that.” Her skin was flushed and her breasts buoyantly floated above the water where I could get my hands on them. I felt their abundance and the hard tips which made it necessary to pinch them between two fingers at the same time.
I was a man obsessed, taken by the beauty of her body and the vocal expressions coming from her lips. She was shaking her head defiantly with her whole body trembling to my touch. I was wildly excited and the periscope of that excitement was showing itself on the surface of the water.
“Nicholas, this is what you came for and I would hate to disappoint… YOUUUUU.” She was flying high on the wings of her orgasmic moment in the sun. Her scream echoed across the sea and she thrust out her chest with my lips attached to her clit.
I wanted more than anything to erase my betrayal and her defiant act had given me a license to bring up my game a notch. I wasn’t the same man she remembered and what she had gotten for her first time was nothing compared to how I was going to make her feel. She was shaking and I had a hard time holding onto her, but it was worth it to see the way her face turned into a mask of euphoria.
Chapter Sixteen
Samantha
This wasn’t my game plan and lying there in the aftermath of my pleasure was surprising, but I couldn’t help myself. His mouth, tongue, and lips had satisfied the yearning deep down. I wanted to get my hands on him and I looked over to where he was sitting there with a cocksure grin on his face.
“I feel we were connected body and soul. I know men don’t feel the same way about sex as women do, but surely even you felt more than the fleeting need for pleasure. I can’t let you do that without showing you what I learned.” He seemed reluctant to get out of the water where I could reach him and for good reason. He was afraid I was going to see him for who he really was and to uncover his dirty secret with a look of ghastly surprise on my face.
He kept his lower half submerged and I went to him with my eyes on fire for reciprocation. I drove my hand into the water like someone trying to capture their dinner with their bare hands. He made a gesture with his hands and in the process, water went flying everywhere. He was breathing heavily, holding my hungry gaze as I ran my fingers delicately over his flesh under the water.
“I didn’t do that because I wanted you to return the favor. It was my pleasure to see you lose yourself in the moment. I get a special little kick out of seeing a woman ride that wave of pleasure.” I’m sure other guys in his position would have made a fuss about the oral foreplay, but he wasn’t doing that.
“I would feel bad if I didn’t show you the same courtesy. You don’t want to do anything to disappoint me and you have no idea what a woman does when they are scorned. Their wrath can be unimaginable and there is no limit to how far they are willing to go to exact some revenge.” The head of his elongated member was bobbing above the surface of the water and I drew a breath before concealing it in my mouth.
“I had no idea what I was getting myself…into when I invited…you to join me.” He was having a hard time getting the words out of his mouth and my head had gone under long enough to consume him down to the balls. I was a pretty good swimmer and holding my breath for long periods of time was second nature.
I went up and down, letting him feel the magic of my lips performing an act which would seem obscene to anybody who was in the vicinity to witness such a thing. He had his hand in my hair and he made me look up at him through the bubbles.
He was suddenly fucking my face with abandon, standing so that his lower half was now fully accessible without having to hold my breath for any longer than necessary. I was concentrating my effort on the head, circling the crown which was spitting the white hot lava from inside the length of the shaft.
“I never…stood a chance against you and I was foolish to think I could keep you at arms length.” Each and every single day was a gift and I was taking advantage of his good nature. I was still trying to convince myself that when it came down to I would put the brakes on. This was an interlude something to prepare him for the sweet caress of my sex which he was never going to get.
I had my mouth full to make any statement, but I think my actions spoke louder than anything I could say. I could feel one pronounced section of his anatomy pumping with a life of its own and I knew I was on the right track to receive the spillage of his cream.
“Please…show mercy.” He had no idea what he was asking and mercy was the last thing on my mind. I had him ensnared and I was not going to let him go until he sputtered to the finish line. “Mother of God…is there no end to your gag reflex?” His plum sized knob was tickling my tonsils and I felt empowered to have this kind of hold over him. His orgasm was mine to give or mine to deny, but this wasn’t all about him.
I took his greedy appendage out of my mouth, letting my hands glide along the length and squeezing every so often to get more from the tip. I was taking it step by step and I could see it in his eyes. The heat between his legs was burning my fingertips and I was looking at him to see how he was going to react.
“Are you sure you really want me to show you mercy. I could stop altogether and leave you with a perpetual case of blue balls. I can always resort to bringing myself off in front of you making you watch without letting your fingers do the walking.” I had him on the edge with the knob a purple angry color. He was leaking profusely down over my hand and I purposely brought it up to my mouth to lick it clean.
“For god sakes…you have no idea what you’re doing to me and if you’re not careful I’m going to blow.” He could say that, but I had easily cut off the flow with two fingers pinching against his flesh. I wagged my finger back and forth to chastise him and make him realize that this was my show.
“I know exactly what this is doing to you and you deserve much more. I want you to think about me in your cold sheets and beg for the chance to be with me again. I’m enjoying myself immensely and the only way this ends with a bang is if you make me believe how desperate you are to get off. I already feel it from your body, but I don’t hear it from your voice. Convey to me in your own words what you want and I might surprise you by giving it to you. I’m not promising anything.” The ball was literally in his court and those two heavy orbs looked like they were threatening to spew what was currently caught in a vise between my fingers.
“You’re having way too much fun at my expense. I should just finish myself off in spite of your hunger for my seed. I can’t do that and I want desperately to make you swallow my load. I want to see your cheeks puff out with the intensity of my expulsion. I look at your eyes and I know you mean business which is the reason why you’re hearing me state my case. I’m begging you to finish what you started and I know I’m showing you weakness.” He was singing the tune I wanted to hear and I was going to give him something more than he bargained for.
“You’re right and I’m having way too much fun, but I think you have eloquently made your position clear. It’s too bad and I was expecting more from you. I was going to let you feel the tightness of my hole gripping you until you had no choice but to shove it deep and let it fly.” I saw the look of expectation in his eyes and I knew he was kicking himself for letting his need for oral gratification get the best of him.
“I’ve changed my…MIND.” I shut him up with my mouth taking advantage of him in his current predicament. He tried to push me away, but it was with no real strength leaving me to satisfy my sweet tooth. There was no way for me to change his ways and this was going to be a reminder of what he couldn’t have.
It was too late and taking my hand off him to replace it with my silky sweet lips was enough to bring him over the top. I was moving quickly, putting enough pressure on him with a tight seal to drive him out of his mind with pleasure. I felt it coming and I knew that he was never going to be able to hold it back. I didn’t want him to.
“I don’t want it to end this way…fuck it…just do it already and I know I’m going to regret this in the…morning.” His shaft was pulsating against the walls of my mouth and then the familiar taste had me locked in place. The intensity of his climax caught me a little off-guard and my eyes went wide with the first shot from his cannon.
It was followed by several more with the same power behind his thrusts. The moan of contentment was followed by him releasing his knob from between my lips. I stared at him hungrily, reaching out and grabbing him knowing full well that he would be sensitive after quite the explosion.
“You are something else and I really didn’t have a clue about you.” He had me embracing the taste of his sticky syrup and I purposely concentrated my oral attention on his well-sucked knob. “I can’t take it anymore and if you were torturing me, I would gladly give up the information without putting up a fight.” I finally relented, swimming back to my end of the hot tub with my eyes signaling that this was far from over.
I got out of the hot tub, but my body was crying out for the insertion of his tool. I was only punishing myself, but I couldn’t give in willingly without making him pant like a starving dog.
“You could’ve had this.” I ran one finger down over my body until I reached the apex of my thighs. I took a wide stance and then showed him how tight I was by how the lips were grabbing onto my finger. I pulled it out covered in an offering that he would be a damn fool to turn down. I brought it close to his mouth and he tried to take it, but I brought it back and savored the delight deep in my mouth.
Chapter Seventeen
Nicholas
I didn’t know quite what to say and just looking at her made me remember the way that it felt to slip and slide along the surface of her tongue. I knew that her virginity was mine to take, but I was also painfully aware other guys had experienced the same sensation she had just given me. Her mouth was not off limits, but I had no idea if that was true or just my mind filling in the blanks.
I was standing at the railing looking out over the water towards the spec of land in the distance. It was my well-kept secret and nobody knew the island was bought lock stock and barrel by me. I had several acquisitions in real estate, but this one really did hold a special spot in my heart.
Samantha was standing beside me with the wind blowing through her hair and there was no better sight than seeing her with that glow. I wasn’t sure what we had done was right and I couldn’t figure out if this changed anything between us.
“I think we should talk about the elephant in the room. It can never happen again and I shouldn’t have allowed it to go that far. There’s nobody to blame but myself and I didn’t have the strength to stop you. I should’ve been thinking with more than the head between my legs.” The truth was written with the lazy strokes of my fingers along her skin. She had given me a moment to relive and I couldn’t have been any more grateful.
“There’s no reason to beat yourself up and do you really think that you stood a chance against me? It might have been a long time coming, but my wily sexual ways has never been this strong. I owe it to the man who opened my eyes to the possibilities. I always knew how to wield the power of my hand, but I have seen for myself the way a man crumbles underneath the weight of his own need for a little mouth action.” She could’ve asked me for anything and I would have gladly given her a blank check to sign on the bottom line.
“Let’s call a spade a spade and we both know I’m the one responsible for this. I didn’t mean to give you any reason to think that I was playing with your emotions. I shouldn’t have invited you here and you must have felt obligated in some way.” I felt the cold hard slap against my cheek and I looked at her like she was crazy to put her hands on me like that.
“Wake up and smell the roses. I didn’t do anything I didn’t want to do and not even you could stop me from capturing my prize. The slap I gave you was to inform you this is a secret and you’re not to tell a soul.” The sting of her slap was nothing compared to the way that she was looking at me with contempt. She turned away from me and was looking straight ahead. She was not bothering to give me the courtesy of making eye contact.
“I can assure you discretion is my middle name and I will understand if you never want to see me again.” I was once again falling on my sword feeling like an insignificant flea on the bottom of her shoe. “Samantha, I’m not drunk, but I’m not sober either. You say there was nothing that I could do, but don’t you think that’s more semantics. I’m obviously stronger than you and there’s no way for you to overpower me with sheer brute force.” I walked a dangerous tightrope by taking her virginity and then giving her an opening to explore further.
She still had no idea it was me behind the curtain using a reference to my favorite movie Wizard of Oz. I was drained to where I would need a suitable amount of time before replenishing my fluids. I didn’t have a drop to spare and I’d never felt such a vacuum force bringing me that kind of pleasure.
“A woman doesn’t need physical strength to overpower a man. Your weakness is hidden behind a thin layer of fabric. Once you think there’s a possibility of sex then tripping over your own feet to get some is not uncommon.” She was making some interesting points which I was hard pressed to deny.
“I see what you’re saying, but it doesn’t make me feel any better about the situation.” The land was getting closer and the stretch of Sandy Beach was waiting for us to set foot on. “I hope you know there’s nothing I wouldn’t do to keep you safe. I’ve lived in a bubble most of my life, but there has always been something missing.” I didn’t consider myself a bad boy, but I was sure that her father would have something to say about our time together.
“It’s very beautiful out here and we’re far enough away from land that nobody is going to hear either one of us screaming. I find myself wondering how things would have been different had you been the one to show me the ropes.” I almost choked on the flute of champagne I had against my lips. She was obviously talking about two different people not realizing they were one in the same.
“We all make decisions and we live by them. You’re young and you’re going to make your fair share of mistakes along the way. Your intentions might be pure of heart, but there comes a time that we all have to look into the mirror and like what we see. I know there are moments where I see something ugly looking back at me. I don’t recognize the distorted image and I have to turn away with disgust in my heart.”
“Nicholas, I look back at everything I’ve done up to this point and I feel no remorse for anything I’ve done. I do wonder if I would do anything different, but I don’t think I would. My decisions made me more confident and self-assured which I’m sure you have recognized for yourself. I would’ve been a good girl during this time together, but it’s so much more delicious to be bad. There’s something decadent about having you on my lips. It’s evil to think what this would do to my father emotionally if he were to find out.” This would be a good way for her to get back at him, but it would also mean throwing me under the bus.
“Let’s not do anything crazy and we can talk about this during dinner. I do hope you like lobster and the chef at my favorite restaurant poaches it to perfection. I have a secret ingredient and I have my own special garlic butter to make it melt on your palate.” I was making it sound better than sex, but it was a pale comparison to the way that her mouth devoured my sausage.
“I said it was an evil thought, but I never said anything about actually saying anything to my father. I have a trust fund to take into consideration and I don’t want to give him any reason to cut me off cold Turkey. As for the lobster, it is my favorite seafood, but I think that you have done better than that. You always go a little overboard and lobster doesn’t sound extravagant enough.” I didn’t know how it was possible for her to know me in this manner and I wasn’t sure how much I enjoyed being transparent and predictable.
“I’m glad you said that and you have no idea what a load off my mind that is. You’re right and I came prepared for a feast which my personal chef made happen in short order. The menu consists of lobster tail, scallops, mussels and clams including a dessert which will knock you off your feet. I’m not going to go into any more detail and I do request that you wear a blindfold. I think seeing you taste it for the first time will show you there are things in this world you need to experience.” I didn’t know how receptive she was going to be to the blindfold and having that control wrenched from her fingertips didn’t sound like something she would be ready to give up easily.
“I will play along for the sake of your amusement and I find myself curious enough to take a leap of faith. The man who gave me a wild time in the sack is the measuring stick I’m going to use against all others. You and he have something in common and I never saw it until now.” I was waiting with my heart in my mouth and I expected her to catch me in the lie. I think in some small part I wanted to be caught and it was getting a little hard to handle to keep this secret to myself.
“You have me at your mercy and I hope you understand it was nothing personal.” I was ready for the confrontation and the possible screaming fit leaving her to run and hide in one of the staterooms. “It was never my intention to make you feel less than a woman with a lot to offer.” She wasn’t looking at me and the feeling of the secret weighing me down was hard to digest.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about and I was just going to say that you both seem sure of yourself. Do you want to tell me what that outburst was all about? Never mind and I think that I can make some assumptions on my own.” I had revealed too much not meaning to, but feeling guilty enough to let things slip through the cracks.
“I think I’m just feeling a little out of sorts and I’m not sure what I’m going to do when I see your father again. I don’t want to look like a guilty person underneath the hot lights of an interrogation room. I don’t want to say anything to ruin this brief moment together.” I was backpedaling like mad, praying that she wasn’t going to put two and two together and maybe I could still salvage what was left of my dignity.
“You don’t have to fear anything from me, Nicholas. The last person I want to learn about this is my father and mother. They still see me as a little girl and this will shatter their image into a million pieces. I’m certainly old enough to have sex, but if they had their way I would be locked up in the basement until I was 30 and about to go down the aisle.” I had somehow changed the topic of conversation and no longer was she looking at me with suspicion in her eyes.
“They will always be your parents and it doesn’t matter how old you get. You will still be their little girl and that’s one thing you can’t change.” I was giving her something to think about and maybe shining a light on her behavior would give her a reason to think twice before acting recklessly.
“I sometimes feel suffocated like I can’t breathe with them always on my case. Nothing I do ever seems good enough and I don’t dare say anything. You know how my father gets and sometimes it’s best just to let some of the things he says go over my head.” He was a stubborn man, but his aspirations to go into public office were something he dreamed about since he was old enough to remember.
“You may not know this, but everybody feels that way at some point in their lives. I had helicopter parents, always shadowing everything I did with criticism, but I think they were doing it to make me strong. I will always have some animosity underneath the fake smile.” I was learning more about her than just the physical and this exploration into her personal life gave me a new perspective.
“It sounds like both of us were in the same boat, but it had to be different with you being a male heir.” I did remember everything my father had taught me and how I had become my own man despite it. He was a hard man to read and very rarely did he ever show any public displays of affection. I didn’t know it was possible for a man to hug another man until I saw that very thing happening with one of my friends.
“It was a little lonely, but I’m better for it. I learned the hard way life doesn’t hand you anything and if you want something you have to reach out and take it. I run over the little guy, but I have become more aware which I sometimes feel is weighing me down. With age comes regret and those past indiscretions come back to haunt me in the middle of the night.” I figured if she was unloading her baggage then it was common courtesy to do the same.
“I don’t mind saying getting to know you has been an unexpected pleasure. I came here to do something, but my plan changed when I saw you naked. We both have done things reprehensible and don’t think for one second you’re the only one that has things to make up for.” She was obviously referring to giving her innocence to a man she didn’t know. I wanted to go back and do it again frozen in time. I would have died a happy man to live in a continuous loop where we were in each other’s arms.
“I get the feeling we are talking about different things and maybe it’s not good for me to pull at that thread. Let’s forget about all the things that make us fret and enjoy this moment of solitude. There are no worries that a glass of champagne and lobster can’t cure.” I was ready to prepare to embark in the small boat attached to the yacht. I just had to gather up what were the makings of a decadent picnic.
“You have talked it up enough that you have wet my appetite, Nicholas. I find myself curious to know what this dessert is. I hope it’s not all hype. I guess there’s only one way to find out. Lead the way and I do hope that I can trust you with a blindfold.” She would be vulnerable, but I was going to do everything to help her soak up the atmosphere with all of her other senses.
“The meal is only a small part and it’s really the dessert I want you to experience. I had my first taste in Italy and it took me a long time to find a consummate chef to duplicate it. I think you’ll agree with one mouthful that the chef has gone out of his way to make this something truly memorable.” I took her hand and the softness of her touch had me wanting to sweep her off her feet and take her down to the stateroom to show her some physical hospitality.
Chapter Eighteen
Samantha
The oral consumption of his body was something that made everything else pale in comparison. The moonlight above and the way that he was looking at me from across the candlelit table were making it very difficult to sit in one spot for very long without the fiction of my thighs setting me on fire.
He kept licking his lips and sticking his fingers in his mouth knowing full well this was a good way to garner my attention. The seafood danced on my palate and the light jazz playing in the background was a good complement to keep me on the edge of my seat.
“I almost forgot about the blindfold, but it was mainly for the main event of the dessert I mentioned in passing.” He got up and came around behind me causing a chill to run down my spine.
My vision was taken away leaving me with my other senses to rely on. The feel of his fingers touching the nape of my neck and then his tongue circling in that very same spot was something that no woman would be able to resist.
“I hope this isn’t your way of taking advantage of me in a vulnerable state. I’m not saying it’s a bad idea and you certainly have made some brownie points by keeping things fresh and unpredictable.” I was hoping this was going to be worth the anticipation and it wasn’t going to fizzle out with the reality.
“I admit having you here looking like a sexy treat ready to be devoured does give me impure thoughts. You have only yourself to blame and you’re the one who couldn’t take no for an answer. A man would be out of his freaking mind if he didn’t have some ideas of a naughty nature running through his thoughts.” I could smell his aftershave and the scent of saltwater off the ocean. The waves spitting at me from a distance was almost too much to take.
“I want you to use your sense of smell first and then you’re going to indulge in one of my favorite desserts. You probably won’t know the name and not many do unless they have been personally taken away by the flavors. I always tend to look for something unusual that nobody else knows about. It doesn’t matter if it’s food or travel or even an unknown adventure yet to be named.” I sensed something in front of me and I took a big whiff of something almost as good as sex…chocolate.
“You do have me curious and my guilty pleasure has always been chocolate. I don’t gain an ounce and I make my friends jealous to the point of glaring at me with daggers in their eyes. I can’t help that I have a high metabolism and I can easily burn off the calories by even the mere whisper of exercise.” I snapped out my tongue, hoping to catch him off guard, but he was way ahead of me. He didn’t want anything to ruin the suspense. I had the feeling of jumping up and down like a giddy schoolgirl.
“This dessert is an Italian delicacy and I’ve never had anything more potent in my life. It’s like it has a direct line from my mouth to the pleasure centers of my brain. You’ll have to judge for yourself, but I haven’t met anybody yet that wasn’t head over heels for this dessert.” It touched my lips and there was a component of fresh berries.
“People call women cock teases, but I think that you might be a food tease. I’m having a lot of fun and sucking you to completion wet my appetite for more than the creamy center of your shaft. I think that I could be convinced to make your libido rise from the ashes of your climax.” The fork touched my lips and I opened my mouth to receive the ambrosia of the gods.
“It’s a Boccone Dolce meringue with chocolate cream and berries. It has lavish layers of sweet vanilla meringue dripping in chocolate with a fluffy cloud of whipped cream and fresh berries. The name derives from Italian roots and translates to ‘sweet mouthful’.” Each mouthful had my body screaming with a pleasure I had never been introduced to.
“I understand what you mean by a sweet mouthful and not being able to see has enhanced the experience.” I swallowed what was in my mouth and then he gave me another which I couldn’t imagine being any better than the first. I was wrong on many different levels. This was an explosion on my tongue and only one thing could make it any better.
“Samantha, I’ve always wanted to try this and I’ve heard it’s better to ask for forgiveness than permission.” I had no idea what he was referring to and then I tasted the whipped cream and the chocolate with a bit of berries to add to the mound of delight. I found myself opening my mouth wide and it wasn’t because of just the dessert.
My mouth was stuffed full of this dessert coating a man sized morsel. It was delicious, completely addictive and the cock it was attached to was making it too hard to put down. I slathered all over the coating, tasting the dripping of his jism and continuing to pursue the delight on the edge of my taste buds. I got to where he had to pull out to cover it from the head down to the balls all over again.
“I wouldn’t have believed it…but the fantasy is nothing compared to the reality.” I wasn’t waiting or hesitating and I had that fire in my soul which needed to be satiated.
I gave him my undivided attention, keeping my hands to myself while he fed me a dessert that could stand on its own. He had stepped things up a notch with his cock the main event. He had me crazy and knew what to do with the pent up frustration. I wanted to let him burn out of control and I no longer felt like I was out in the cold looking in from the outside.
“I see the smile on your face and the way that you are mewing like a little kitten is causing things to happen quickly. I love the way that your mouth keeps me, prisoner. I’m keyed up and I’m not sure how long I’m going to be able to keep this pace. I’m willing to give it the college try.” I could feel the long vein in the back pumping against my eager tongue and I made sure to press against it. It was a shame we couldn’t be honest, but these games had turned out better than I expected.
He held the back of my head, thrusting his hips which of course drove the mushroom cap in and out of my throat. I showed there were no adverse reactions except for the heavy drool moving steadily down the length of his insistent shaft.
It was like I was surrounded by everything I enjoyed making it feel like my own personal oasis with the man of my dreams. I found being used for his pleasure intoxicating and I could drink from the well of his desire for as long as he would let me.
“OK… I think that’s more than enough and I really wasn’t expecting to take it that far. Once you get started, there’s very little that any man can do to stop you from going all the way.” He left me feeling unfulfilled and the one thing missing was his orgasmic cry of defeat. I wanted to burn his libido to the ground.
“It’s not fair and you give me this meal fit for a queen, but you won’t give in where it matters. I have a good mind a take off this blindfold and throw you on this table.” I wasn’t this kind of woman, but I felt empowered.
I pulled off the blindfold to see his pillar of strength dripping in my hot saliva and the remnants of the dessert. I got up quickly putting my one finger up to his lips to silence any objection. I reached behind him and made a flourish of casting aside the dishes which fell with fanfare to the sand below.
I pushed him with both hands against his hard and chisel chest. He looked a little afraid and I was feeding on that to make me reach down deep for the slut which resided in every woman. She was ready to play and didn’t care about the consequences. All thoughts of revenge vanished and in its place was this hungry desire to make him nothing more than a tool for my pleasure. This was our getaway, completely off the grid and anything that we did would be considered a secret between us.
“I don’t know what has gotten into you, Samantha, but maybe we should talk about this before we do anything we’re going to regret. It might seem hypocritical coming from a man who let you take what you wanted in the hot tub. In the cold light of day, we might look back on this time as something that changed everything between us.” He wasn’t wrong and the time I had spent with him was something I could never forget. My first time with anyone and he had turned out to be a blessing in disguise.
“It’s cute that you think you have a choice and we both know that all I have to do is give you the look and you will be putty in my hands. If you haven’t guessed it by now this is the look that any man would find irresistible. The pouty lips and the fire in my eyes should indicate how far I’m willing to go to satisfy those cravings. Without you, I feel neglected and underappreciated and thoughts of you in various states of undress keep me tossing and turning all night long in a cold sweat.” I didn’t know, but this had to be what junkies felt when they were going through withdrawals.
“I knew I was never going to be able to fight and I have two sides to my personality fighting for control. I’ve never wanted a woman this badly in my life and it feels like an itch I can’t scratch on my own.” I looked him up and down treating him like a piece of meat and enjoying the reversal of fortune.
“I made up my mind from the moment I saw you last night meeting with my father that I wasn’t going to allow anything to stand in my way. I love seeing your body, but I do believe you might be wearing too much.” I wasn’t even thinking with the head on top of my shoulders and everything was being predicated on kitty getting a taste. I ripped open his shirt to receive a charge of heat between my legs.
Chapter Nineteen
Nicholas
I wanted to wake her up with breakfast in bed, but keeping her past curfew was only going to have her father sending out the National Guard to find her. I didn’t care and the only thing that I wanted to do was to dance with her. I could only hope this wasn’t her way of getting back at her father for some argument.
I felt her hands push me until I was sitting on the table with her climbing up and straddling my head with her knees on either side. She was looking down at me and I could feel the sweet nectar of her sex touching my lips.
“The foreplay was nice and what I’m asking you to do is the icing on the cake. I’m a fallen angel and the devil made me do it. You may not see the horns, but trust me they are there.” I planted my oral flag, seeing her eyes grow wide with surprise and knowing that I was responsible for sending her very explicit messages.
I’d made good use of my time, devouring the drippings of her delicious sauce and finding it impossible not to go back for seconds or even thirds.
“My god…it doesn’t matter how many times you do that to me and I will always come back looking for a second helping. I can feel you touching my G-spot with your finger deep inside and I don’t know how you can possibly know what makes me a slave to your body.” I felt like somebody had lit the fuse and it was burning with the inevitability of setting off the charge at the end. She knew how to please a man and she didn’t seem to be phoning it in.
I was not like most men and oral sex was not a means to an end. To me, it was necessary and pleasurable to feel how a woman’s body reacted and responded to what I was doing to her. Her lips were slick to the touch and she seemed unaware of how much her body could take. I was willing to experiment with a high voltage subject and touching her with the electric wire of my tongue was enough to make her shake to her very core.
I was perfectly content to continue on the path of her pleasure, but she became possessed by her alter ego. She slid down leaving a trail of her pleasure coating me from my neck down to where she was now hovering over top of me.
“I don’t know what it is about you, Nicholas, but this fever to have you drives me to do unspeakable things.” I was waiting on pins and needles and how she was able to stay in that position with small droplets of her excitement falling from the distance of a few centimeters was amazing. The heated discharge had my cock harder than stone.
I remembered when I was young like her and I wondered how differently I would’ve turned out had I been given the opportunities to capture lightning in a bottle. I was scared to face my fears, but my father was notorious for sticking my hand to the proverbial fire.
My breath got caught in my throat as she dropped her weight and let gravity do the rest. I was unprepared for her hungry sex and what she was willing to do to get what she wanted. She landed heavily in my lap and I could hear the legs on the table about to give out. She sat there motionless with her eyes open and pupils dilated to a pinpoint. Her mouth was open and her face lit up like the 4th of July.
It wasn’t just the way that my cock sank into her body, but it was the feeling that I was getting from her like there was no other place she wanted to be.
“I feel that I’m not worthy of this kind of affection. I have a confession and I may as well say it while… I still have the nerve.” She plastered her mouth against my lips and forced her tongue into the hot confines.
She was moving her body like she was used to attacking a man’s pole, but I knew she was only mimicking what she had possibly seen on the Internet. It was also likely that this was her body talking in the language that only she understood.
“I feel like I have a loaded gun between my legs. Watching you walk away last night left me with a heavy heart. You’re that bottle of liquor that an alcoholic thirst for. I feel you deep inside and you have me spinning in circles.” Actually, she was grinding in a circle in an attempt to break through the wall of her resistance. It crumbled like sand through the hourglass until she began to convulse in place.
“That’s it…cum for me… Samantha.” I was gritting my teeth at the Herculean effort it took to keep from turning the faucet of my desire. I wanted her to make me the measuring stick as she had already mentioned, but there was a part of me that never wanted her to be with another man again. I wanted us to be exclusive, but how could I voice that feeling without showing weakness?
She was moaning and she thrust her chest out which was the perfect target for my unusually dry mouth. I pushed her breasts together and sucked both of them at the same time, flicking my tongue across the surface and then grazing my teeth to insinuate a bit of pain with her pleasure.
“I’m fucking going to cum. Can you feel how hot my juices are dripping down your shaft? I’ve never squirted in my life, but there’s always a first time for…EVERYTHING.” Her scream echoed in my ears and it was the catalyst to what was building up inside.
“Samantha, this is a roller-coaster and I feel like the whole world is watching us.” My body was no longer my own and it belonged to the pleasures of her quivering flesh. I found something in reserve which I was able to pull out and turn her until she was lying flat with her legs spread in the air.
“Nicholas, I can’t believe I was nervous to come here with you.” I was a madman with my eyes wild with determination and there was no way that I could move on without finding some closure to this otherwise unforgivable sin against her family.
“Yes… God damn…you are an animal and I can’t seem to get enough of the kind of man who takes no prisoners.” I was breathing deeply, staring at her beautiful face and feeling how her body was trying to drain me of every drop.
“I’m almost there…cum with me again and I promise you won’t regret it.” I felt the sensation growing by the second and I reached between us to rub her clit into submission. I was swimming through her veins like a fish in the ocean and I could make some assurances that I would never find another woman like her.
We both had this moment and then it felt like we were part of some elaborate accident on the side of the highway. We screamed together in unison with everything becoming a blur and the table collapsed underneath our weight. We had nothing left to hide and we lie there laughing like a couple of idiots.
“I never thought something like this could happen between us and I wonder why it took us so long to express our feelings physically. You’re a man with a lot to offer and the kind of stamina which would make any woman remember your name. I believe in starting over and I want you in a way that scares me. I don’t want to do anything to push you away.” I couldn’t even imagine anything that she said would come close to ruining what we had together.
We had bits of sand sticking to our sweat soaked bodies and just touching each other to wipe it away was enough to set things ablaze all over again.
“I’ve been trying to tell you something and there doesn’t seem to be a right time. I need to get this out there and I don’t want you to stop me until I’m done.” I was ready to let the chips fall where they may, but every scenario I came up with had her slapping me with enough force to loosen my molars.
She leaped into my arms and curled her legs around my waist almost knocking me off balance. She reigned supreme with her hands holding me in place so that she could continue seducing me with more than words.
“It doesn’t matter and I don’t need to hear it. The past is behind us where it should be and we can start anew right here in the moment. Tell me that is what you want and I will gladly stand with you against father.” I wasn’t sure that she understood what she was asking and I felt bad keeping a secret this huge.
“I think you already know my answer and I doubt very seriously I’m going to have to paint you a picture.” I could feel her slit sliding up and down the length of my depleted member. It was time to pack things up and get back to the real world. I could have easily convinced her to run away with me and to travel the world, but I couldn’t do that. I had so much I wanted to show her and many different cultures to introduce her to. I would have to wait for a better time to even mention it.
Chapter Twenty
Samantha
“I’ve been trying to get in touch with you for a few days and you’ve been ducking my calls. I thought for sure you would want to talk about it, but maybe you felt too ashamed. You did what you had to and it’s not like you can take it back.” Julia had her red hair pulled back into pigtails giving her that innocent look. Those men who had been with her knew there was nothing innocent about her.
“I wasn’t sure what I was going to feel after everything was said and done. I thought I would be grateful that it was over, but it went beyond that. It awakened something inside me begging for release. I don’t even know where to begin or even if I want to share this part of my life with you.” I did need somebody to talk to and the only one who wouldn’t judge me was standing right in front of me in the bookstore.
“I don’t want you to do anything you don’t feel comfortable with and you know anything you say will go in the vault. I don’t speak out of turn and our friendship means more to me than idle gossip around the water cooler. I swear on our friendship that these lips are sealed.” I did breathe a sigh of relief, but I still wondered what her reaction was going to be when I laid out all the cards.
“I will begin by saying how much our friendship means to me and I know you would do nothing to ruin what we have built on trust. Giving away my innocence for a price should have broken my heart into a million pieces, but I found something quite unexpected.” I wasn’t sure how much to tell her and then I saw his car sitting at the curb waiting for me.
I had no idea how he could possibly find me and I kept him from making contact for the last couple of days. I wanted to see if I could live without him and not rely on the comfort of a man to make me whole.
I had no idea how he would interact with my friends, but this was something separate from them. There was no reason to introduce them, but my family was another matter altogether. We had discussed standing in unison facing my father and revealing how our relationship had evolved into more than friendship.
“You have me at the edge of my seat.” I took a deep breath and gave her the cliff notes not including his real name for the sake of anonymity. I felt instantly relieved, completely unburdened and the only thing left was to hear what she had to say on the matter.
I fingered the volume of books, not really browsing, but making it look good for perception.
“I’m happy for you and what you did could’ve turned out badly. I wouldn’t be a good friend if I didn’t mention how this could be a simple matter of transference. I know how a man thinks and I want you to be very careful about getting involved in an untenable situation. I would take my cue from the man and secrecy can only go so far. If he’s embarrassed to be seen with you in public then you’re going to have to cut him loose.” I hadn’t discussed going public, but it was the next thing on my agenda when I saw him.
“It really is nice to bring you into my confidence and I’ve been fighting the urge to come to see you in the middle of the night. I have to go and you probably have questions about his identity.” So as not to be overheard, I whispered into her ear and her eyes practically bugged out of her skull.
“I want to leave you with one thought and take it in the spirit it is given. He wouldn’t have gone out of his way to be the winning bid unless he felt something. I’m sure in his mind he thought he was saving you from yourself, but I think deep down he has harbored feelings for you. Be careful and he might be fragile which means you’re going to have to treat him with kid gloves.” I listened to her unbiased opinion and I felt that Nicholas and I had a lot to talk about. I wasn’t sure how I was going to bring up the fact I knew it was him.
“You have given me a lot to think about and you have no idea how much I appreciate your uncensored opinion. I might be reading too much into this, but I won’t know until I find out from the horse’s mouth. As I’ve already mentioned, he has no idea I already know who he is and I thought that I was going to get revenge, but things didn’t go exactly as planned.” I did feel a bit of shame, but that changed when he took me into his arms. He didn’t act overbearing and he didn’t chase me around trying to get his hands on me. If anything, I was the initiator, but I think that he enjoyed being hunted like prey.
I saw his car move casually down the road and I got the feeling he didn’t want to be spotted. It was kind of exciting to be playing this game underneath my father’s nose. It was a delicious treat not unlike the Italian chocolate dessert that I couldn’t get out of my mind.
He rolled down his window and then he leaned forward like he was propositioning for an afternoon delight. “I don’t suppose you would be looking for a ride? I can promise to get you there, but there’s no telling how long it will take. I tend to explore those hidden places nobody thinks about.” I enjoyed the verbal sparring match of sexual innuendos and it made my panties stick to me like a second skin.
“I’ve already told you that I like to drive stick and I don’t mind the long way around. It helps to prolong the anticipation.” I was bending forward giving him a bird’s eye view of my cleavage on full display for his hungry and eager eyes. “I’m sure you see something on the menu and we can certainly discuss those things over ‘cock’tails.” I intentionally emphasized cock in the word cocktails and he was licking his lips with the hidden meaning behind my words.
The door swung open and I climbed in not the least bit nervous about being alone with him this time. I was doing everything that I could to keep my hands to myself, but the way that his pants were bulging had me delirious like I was coming down with something.
I opened the window thinking that the cool breeze would lower the heat between my legs, but it did nothing to contain the scorching presence of my excitement.
“I’m sure you’re wondering how I was able to find you without calling you. I have a lot of money and it didn’t take much to have one of my best IT personnel track you down using your cell phone. I don’t normally go to these measures, but for you, I felt like I could make an exception.” I was anxious and feeling like my tongue was tied in a knot with the truth not far from spilling from my lips.
He was no longer a stranger in my bed and I began to think how delicious it would be to go full circle and find a hotel catering to a more influential clientele. Silk sheets and him going out of his way to make it up to me would’ve been the way to go.
“I should be angry with you for invading my personal space, but I think I’ve come to know you better than anyone. You don’t consider it a violation of my trust and you’ve always been about doing things your own way.” I wasn’t trying to put him down, but sometimes he needed a reminder of how his actions could have consequences.
“I feel this need to apologize and I never take into consideration other people’s feelings. It’s a bad habit I’m trying to get out of, but it’s the only way I know. Be patient with me and I promise that I won’t let you down. I’ve been thinking about how to break the news to your father and I’m not sure there’s any really good way to do it. We could start by talking to your mother and she might be more receptive.” Nicholas was a man who knew how to hold millions in the palm of his hand and I found it amusing that he was afraid to stand toe to toe with my father.
“I feel like you have consumed all the air out of my lungs and I look at you and I can’t breathe. With that being said, I believe my mother might be the right path to take before announcing our intentions to my father. I know he’s having a surprise masquerade party in your honor, but don’t let him know that I was the one that told you.” My father was not subtle and his intention was to bleed him dry of whatever cash he could grab from his checkbook.
“Subtlety has never been your father’s strong suit and I guess I’m going to have to act surprised when I show up tomorrow night for what I was told was going to be an intimate dinner with the family. It might be a good idea to leave any talk about us being together until after the festivities. We don’t want him to be in one of his moods and unable to mingle with those willing to give to his campaign.” I thought for a moment he was trying to weasel his way out of this budding relationship. I didn’t think we had anything with this secret between us.
I could’ve easily allowed him to take off the band aid quickly last night, but it didn’t seem like the right time. We were having way too much fun to break the mood with talk of betrayal.
“I shouldn’t have told you about the surprise and he won’t be very happy if he even suspects you found out from some other source. You’ve always been a consummate actor and I worry that maybe you’re just telling me what I want to hear to string me along. I’m holding onto you with both hands and I never want to be alone.” I didn’t want to fall so easily, but he made the love I had become more prevalent with each day passing by. I couldn’t let it slip away and he was the only one I wanted to spend all of my time with.
“You’re never going to be alone and I feel like we were made for one another. There’s still something I need to say, but every time I try to say it you shut me down. I understand you don’t want to get hurt, but we can’t be together with what I have to say hanging above our heads.” He was trying to do the right thing, but I was terrified of my reaction even though I already knew what he was going to say.
“Will you look at the time and I have an appointment that I have to get to.” I gave him yet another mind-boggling kiss leaving him with my lipstick marking my territory. He looked stunned like he had just been jolted with an electric wire to his privates. I was avoiding the elephant in the room knowing full well there was going to come a time where I could no longer keep things at a status quo.
Chapter Twenty-One
Nicholas
“We’ve been together all these years and you find it necessary right now to spring this on me. I should be appalled, but I’m actually proud of how easily you have gone behind my back. I shouldn’t be upset and you did learn from the master’s hand.” I had been distracted and my best friend in the world had decided to use that against me.
Jackson had slipped in at the last minute, undercutting me and claiming that there was nothing personal behind his back stabbing ways.
“I know how you work and standing in your shadow has bothered me for some time. I had to find a way to move on without you and this deal I have signed is going to be quite lucrative for me and my new company. I hope there aren’t any hard feelings, Nicholas and this is all about business.” It was exactly what I would’ve said, but he was doing it with a soft shoe like a consummate tap dancer in competition.
“You know I don’t need the money, but I can’t understand why you would go to these measures when I have made you millions every year since our partnership began.” I was always on the lookout for him finally learning the most valuable lesson of them all. It was time for me to cut the apron strings and to let him sink or swim on his own.
“We both knew this day was coming and it was just a matter of time. I never had the courage to go out of my comfort zone in business and I only wish that I could translate my personal life into the boardroom.” I could easily destroy his credibility by letting the cat out of the bag about his extracurricular affairs.
“Jackson, I probably would’ve seen this coming had I not been occupied doing something else and believe me this is the last time you’re going to find me unaware. I make one mistake and I never repeat it.” He didn’t even do me the courtesy of facing me as a man and we were conducting our business differences over Skype.
He had a towel wrapped around his neck and there was a bead of perspiration dripping from his hair. I could see a well built young man behind him setting up for their next exercise. He had a personal trainer and he was learning to handle his business and keep his body in fine shape at the same time.
“There’s no reason to be upset and you could call this healthy competition.” I heard somebody clearing their throat and I turned to see Samantha standing there looking as innocent and sweet as she had ever been.
“I should take this personally, but I would have done exactly what you did if I were standing in your shoes. I admit losing you is a blow, but I will soldier on without you. Don’t be surprised if I leave you in my dust.” He wasn’t even paying attention and he was staring out the double doors at the lights of the big city.
“I was wondering how it was possible that I could slide underneath your radar. I found my answer and I hope a piece of ass is worth millions in continued revenue over the span of 10 years.” I thought about it and having him fight me was going to be like two immovable boxers in the ring.
“I still consider you a personal friend, but the dynamic has changed where we no longer will be able to talk about business without wringing each other’s neck. I want you to remember that you might know where the bodies are buried, but I also know some of your dirty little secrets.” I saw the look of stunned surprise on his face and I cut him off with him lifting his finger in an argumentative way.
I was feeling a little frustrated and my Pied a Terre was this penthouse at a very exclusive building. Swinging the glass doors open to the balcony, I was mesmerized by the sight greeting my eyes. I had a glass of wine in my hands and I was standing by the edge looking down at everybody.
“I’ve never seen you in your element and it was kind of exciting. I’m sorry about your friend and I know how you feel about Jackson. I only caught the tail end of your conversation and I can only hope I wasn’t the cause of you losing him.” She was giving herself way too much credit and everything that happened with Jackson was on my shoulders. It was a burden that I had to carry and a lesson in humility which I wasn’t expecting.
“I’m not your typical man and I have the ability to compartmentalize my feelings from my personal life and my business life. I will never be the kinda guy to bring you flowers for no good reason and I hope you’re sure about getting involved with me. I do like your attitude and we can certainly finish each other’s thoughts in a different way.” She was dressed casually in a pair of jeans and I had designs on extracting her from them even if I had to use the Jaws of Life.
“Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy the secret rendezvous and going to places where I can’t even pronounce the name. These last few days has shown me what I have been missing from a life of being pampered. You obviously have a high opinion of yourself and confidence is sexy. Men like you tend to break girls hearts before moving onto the next conquest.” She had me pegged, but I was trying to do better and be the man she wanted me to be.
“What we have together means the world to me; Samantha and seeing you walk in unannounced didn’t send me into even a mild panic. I’m usually the one to invite a girl up here and they don’t just show up out of the blue. You’re changing my way of thinking and maybe it’s time for me to lose the caveman mentality.” The denim shirt hugged her breasts and the one button on top looked like it was threatening to bust loose.
“We’ve come a long way and I’ve told you things that not even my best friend knows. It can’t be easy having your friend break the trust between you. I don’t know what the future holds, but I want you to be a part of it. It might be scary to offer any kind of real commitment, but anything worth doing isn’t easy.” She was a breath of fresh air and she knew how to navigate the choppy waters of my personality.
“I’m sure you can hear and see the reason why I hold this place with deep affection. It was my very first Real estate holding and I can’t bring myself to let it go without somebody prying it from my cold dead hands. This was the beginning of my rise to wealth and prosperity. I still have my very first dollar that I earned when I was 12 years old. It’s framed in my bedroom and I sometimes take it out to remind me of the man I don’t want to become.” My father was a domineering tyrant and it was either his way or the highway.
“I don’t expect you to change and I know how deliciously evil some women can be when they finally get their hooks in a man. They think just because they have a ring on their finger that it entitles them to some kind of power. The one thing you don’t have to worry about me is the very idea of leading around by the nose.” I could tell there was still distance between us and I knew the reason for it like the back of my hand.
“I appreciate the sentiment, but I want to be a better man. Someone deserving of the kind of love you can give me and to return those feelings 100 times over. I’m sure there are going to be times I’m going to fall into old habits, but I’m going to trust in you to pull me back from the abyss before the darkness swallows me whole.” Everybody looked so small and insignificant like I could place each individual person between my thumb and forefinger and crush them without a moment’s thought.
“You’re not the only one wanting to change their ways and I grew up privileged without a care in the world. I know your reputation and how ruthless you can be given the right incentives. If I were Jackson, I would be shaking in my boots and wondering when the anvil was going to come down to bring to a halt my short reign of power.” We could grow together, but not with this rift between us. There was something unsaid and keeping things to ourselves was where we were going to fall into a dangerous cycle.
“I know men say this all the time, but you’re perfect just the way you are. You bring light into the shadows of my life. It’s hard to fight these feelings when I can barely breathe without feeling like my chest is constricting. I don’t think we know the meaning of taking it slow and we jumped into this, feet first.” I had no interest in twisting her ideals and the pain we shared of our childhood only brought us closer.
It never felt so real and kissing her in the moonlight convinced me she was a creation from god’s hands. The cold nights being alone bled into one another and this was the first time in a long time I had anything more than business to wake up to in the morning.
“I’m not perfect and nobody can be. I don’t want the responsibility of making you see me on a pedestal and it’s so easy to fall from that dizzying height. I want us to be on equal footing and never take each other for granted. We have a lot to lose and a lot to gain depending on how things progress from this point.” Life was about changes and nothing stayed the same which was a motto I lived by.
“You can’t say that and looking at you makes me believe in angels. There’s always a reason for everything and having you come into my life was nothing short of miraculous. I was living for the kill in the boardroom, enjoying the way people suffer at my hands and you showed me there’s more to life than money. ” I thought for sure that I was going to choke on the word. I swallowed hard, but I no longer felt the trapping of society holding me down.
“That’s precisely what I’m talking about and we both have flaws which have molded us into the person we are today. Don’t make the mistake of thinking there’s nothing about me you wouldn’t want to change. We will learn quickly living together about those little quirks which might drive us crazy. I propose that we live together in sin without making any long-term plans.” What she said did make sense on paper, but I couldn’t think of anything that might drive me crazy. I could be selfish by leaving the toilet seat up, but I could also cook a mean steak on the barbecue. I could balance things out on the scales of a relationship.
“I’ve never had a relationship last more than a few days and I’m not saying that so that you can run out the door leaving behind a cardboard cutout of yourself. I’m giving you the facts and I’ve never been this honest in my life. I want to walk with you hand in hand in this life and be damned anybody that crosses our path.” I escorted her back to the elevator and she told me that black tie was optional.
“Nick, I want us to forever kiss like lovers do when the relationship is fresh. We can never allow ourselves to become complacent.” Our fingers lingered like the presence of electricity was coursing through our veins. I wanted to tell her the truth, but each time it became increasingly difficult.
I had let too much time go by and saying anything was going to be the death of me. The worst was yet to come and I was a coward to let this play on any longer than necessary.
Chapter Twenty-Two
Samantha
Everybody was hiding behind masks waiting for the guest of honor to arrive and I had on this little black dress. It was silky against my skin. My body was pleading with me to grab him when I saw him and then drag him someplace private. The very thought of screwing his brains out right here underneath my father’s roof was causing my lust to boil over.
We were assured that he was on his way and would come through those doors any minute. The house was quiet, barren of any sound other than the muffled whispers of those in attendance. I was staring at the door beside myself with anticipation and he was the monkey I couldn’t get off my back. He was the intoxication running in a direct line between my legs.
The knock on the door was greeted by my mother wearing something casual. She really did look great in a pair of jeans and the sweater did very little to hide her natural assets.
The whole room erupted with flashing lights and catcalls of approval. The applause was deafening and he feigned surprise. It didn’t look like an act and I gave him credit for playing along despite the fact he already knew about the party.
He came over to stand beside me while I was fingering the buffet from behind the table. His hand was behind me and how he could think of doing anything untoward right here in front of these people was brazen.
“I’ve been thinking about you for the last few days and I haven’t been able to think of anything else other than what we did on the boat and on the island. I want us to find some time alone together and seeing this is your turf, I’m going to leave it up to you to find the appropriate venue.” His words caught me off guard and I looked at him out of the corner of my eye, putting my finger to my lips like I was thinking about it when I had the perfect place in mind.
“We’re going to have to wait, but I don’t know how much more I can stand without having you in my mouth again. I might want to have the appetizer before the main course. Give me 5-minutes and excuse yourself from whatever conversation you find yourself in. My parents’ bedroom has a master ensuite on the other side of the house. I know I’m being bad, but maybe you can teach me a lesson with a firm hand.” The bathroom in question had a claw tub and a six-person shower with two huge shower heads with different settings.
The black marble accented by the white tile floors gave it a classic look never to go out of style. This would be the first time I’d ever dared step foot into what my parents called their home away from home. I couldn’t think of a better time than while the party was in full swing.
Every guy was dressed in white with masks to match and every girl was dressed in black which was a design and theme my mother had come up with. My father didn’t look comfortable and he motioned for Nicholas to join him for a snifter of brandy outside on the veranda.
“Your father could ask me for anything and I would give him it just to be in your arms again.” The heat between us set off this electrical charge and I could literally feel that my panties were melting away from my body.
“Don’t do anything foolish and if he thinks he can take an inch then he will take a mile. Play it cool and make him believe his attempt at flattery is getting him everywhere. There’s no doubt you’re going to make a hefty contribution to his campaign, but you were going to do that anyway. Keeping him guessing will give him something else to think about and his mind will be occupied with something more than his daughter’s purity.” I felt like I was drunk, but I hadn’t had a single drop of alcohol.
“I don’t know if I can play the villain and I certainly don’t have the mustache or the heroine tied up to the train tracks laughing maniacally at her expense. I can be vindictive, power hungry and I’m already formulating a plan to stick it to Jackson.” He kept looking at his phone and I caught a glimpse to know enough. Jackson was alluding that he wasn’t the only problem to worry about.
“I have my eyes on you and I want your hot love touching me. There’s no way that I’m the good girl you remember from the past. I’ve been shown exactly who I can be and there’s no going back to the fresh-faced family image.” My father looked impatient and his foot was tapping on the floor. The only way anybody knew who anybody was under the mask was because of their hairstyle.
There were three others looking similar to Nicholas and they could’ve been a carbon copy of the original.
“You make it very difficult for me to go over there and talk to your father and carry on a conversation of idle chitchat. Promise me that you won’t start without me and I find it sexy for you to be wearing something when I come through the door. I want the surprise element and to feel this pent up frustration in need of release.” He pretended to laugh and then his hand snuck up underneath the back of my dress.
I could feel the heat from his hand through the thin material of my thin red panties. I was already moist and his finger working underneath the leg band was leaving me no choice but to put on a brave face.
“I can feel how hard you are and you better think of something other than me in the next few seconds. I know enough already that you’re a grower and not a shower. Unfortunately, your flag has been raised and is currently stuck between my buns.” I very carefully moved in a way that was very explicit. I was giving him his own personal lap dance without letting anybody know from around the room what was going on.
“I could take you right here, bend you are over, flip up that dress and pull your panties to the side. We could forget about everyone in the room and get lost in the passion in each other’s eyes. I could slip in behind you, holding your panties with one hand and myself with the other. I’m already dripping with excitement and it would be so easy to fit this hard cock into your hot hole.” I was flushed to the touch and his attempt at dirty talk was putting my libido on notice.
“Be careful what you say next and you never know what I’m going to do. You might just get your wish of putting on an x-rated show for the guests of my father. I feel I need to walk away before I have no choice but to get down on my knees and give you my lips. I’m wearing your favorite strawberry gloss and believe me; I am going to leave my mark on you before the end of the night.” He was rubbing my mound with his long and pronounced shaft.
It was a good thing we were behind the table so that everything that was happening down below was going unnoticed.
I tried to move, but he held me at the waist, pushing his cock deeper between the cheeks of my ass. He was playing with fire and being with him was like I didn’t even know who I was anymore.
“I don’t know how you can think you can walk away from me leaving me in this condition. Don’t you have any heart or compassion? Just one touch will be enough to make me the talk of the town. I’m so damn close to blowing my load inside my pants. I’m doing what I can to stop it from happening, but it’s not easy with you grinding up against me.” I smiled behind his back, licking my lips and tasting the faint strawberry flavor which was going to find its way along the length of him.
“I can’t possibly finish you off and you’re just going to have to get a hold of yourself. I’m not suggesting you take matters into your own hands unless what you have your hands on is me.” I still felt that unmistakable rift between us, but the only thing I could think about was how much I wanted to make him into a slave for my body.
“I’m not asking you to and this is my problem to deal with until we are alone. You smell fantastic and you look like you’re ready to commit a naughty act. You make me sweat every time I’m around you and I feel slightly out of breath. I know what we are doing is wrong and your father and mother would have my nuts in a vise if they were to find out.” This party was politically staged and my father was panhandling for campaign contributions.
My father’s brilliant white smile and glad hand were making him fast friends in many different circles.
“They are going to find out, Nicholas, but only if we stand together. I’m very nervous and they’re going to consider you a cradle robber. It’s not like our ages are that far from each other, but you have this unseemly worldly reputation which follows you around wherever you go.” I moved my hand behind me and I found my fingers feeling the bulge making a tent inside his briefs.
“I don’t know what you think you are doing, Samantha, but it feels too damn good to make you stop.” He was thumping madly and just feeling him hungry for my form was enough to cause a chain reaction.
“I hate to see a grown man cry and seeing you suffer needlessly makes it impossible for me to walk away. I somewhat feel responsible for your condition and maybe there’s something I can do about that. You have far more inside you than just one shot in the chamber.” Everybody was preoccupied and became even more so when my mother clinked her glass for their undivided attention.
They all turned like sheep and I dropped very quickly out of sight. I slid back on my hands and knees until I was underneath the tablecloth. I gave him this come hither motion in the same way my father had, but mine had a different meaning behind it.
“You can’t possibly think that it’s a good idea for me to do this.” It didn’t look like his head was doing the talking for him and his body was playing devil’s advocate.
I could almost imagine a tiny little angel on his shoulder whispering not to do anything to make a scene. The devil, on the other hand, was screaming obscenities and making it hard for him to hear the angel’s muted plea.
I showed him my tongue; fluttering it in place and seeing him pull at his collar with this nervous energy in the air. He took three steps forward and then I was unzipping his fly and reaching into the opening. I was the spider and he was caught in my web of deceit and depravity.
I barely had half of him inside touching the back of my mouth when I heard my father’s voice.
“I’ve been trying to get your attention from across the room for the last 5-minutes. I know my daughter can be a handful and whatever she was asking you, I would suggest you decline.” He had no idea that his words were too late to convince us to stop the raging inferno of our loins.
“I wasn’t expecting this and I feel slightly feverish. I might be coming down with the flu that’s going around.” If my father could read minds then they would’ve come to blows. I was satisfying Nicholas’s insatiable appetite and every guy in this place would have been envious of his current position.
“You hid it well, but I know you almost better than anybody. This isn’t much of a surprise. I have no idea which little birdie told you, but I don’t think it’s necessary to browbeat you into a confession. It’s been a long time and these last few days having you around have been a blast from the past.” I was taking my time, enjoying the added bonus of the possibility of getting caught sucking his cock and knowing my father was not more than 2-feet away from discovering me.
“I don’t want to get…anybody into trouble.” His knob had become a life-sized balloon and he tried not to move as I gave him more than enough incentive to break his will.
I had abandoned all thought and the impropriety of what I was doing had become an obsession. I couldn’t help but squeeze his balls through his briefs and listen to him cover up by coughing. He had already paved the way by mentioning coming down with something.
“I want you to go up to my room and lie down. These people won’t even know you’re gone and I’ll do what I can to make up for your absence. You owe me one and you know that I have the right to collect in whatever way I deem necessary.” I couldn’t do it and making Nicholas my puppet by pulling his string was asking for trouble. I tucked him back into his pants when I could’ve easily siphoned him dry in the vacuum force of my mouth.
“I think I might take you up on your offer and it’s mighty generous of you to play defense. I will be sure to make it up to you.” It was dark enough in the room that his condition wasn’t on display for the hecklers to get a good word in. There would have been a lot of finger-pointing and some would have taken great delight in putting him on the spot.
Chapter twenty-three
Nicholas
I watched as he paced back and forth in front of the window. I was sure that he was waiting for me to say something, but I was having too much fun making him suffer from silence. He was one of my best friends, but we always had this funny way of playing fast and loose with each other’s emotions.
“I hope you know how much painstaking work it took to make this happen for you, Nicholas. We hardly ever see you and you are the godfather of our child. Business might be booming, but that doesn’t take away from your family.” The very thought sent a cold chill down my spine and that kind of commitment always made me run for the hills whenever a woman got too close.
“I see you haven’t spared any expense in this little party, but I have to wonder if there is any kind of ulterior motive behind it. We both know you don’t do anything unless it’s beneficial to both you and the person you are doing it for. Might I venture a guess that it could have something to do with your campaign to be governor?” I already knew that it did, but it was fun to make him say it out loud.
He was pulling at his collar and he kept looking at me like I was something underneath the microscope to be observed. This man was always good at reading people and was the main reason why he was going to be perfect for going into office.
“I don’t think I have to spell it out for you and it could be quite the investment in the long run. I could be quite instrumental in getting you contracts for construction jobs under the table. We both know my aspiration is not just to be governor and one day the White House is going to call. It would be nice to have that kind of influence in your life.” I could sense his underlying meaning and he had followed me up to the room on the pretense of making sure I was comfortable.
“What you are trying to say in a diplomatic way is that it’s better to scratch your back. I don’t necessarily disagree, but I’m not sure I want to be associated with politics. It’s an ugly business.” If I thought what I did for a living was underhanded then I didn’t know what the hell I was thinking. I didn’t have any inspiration to bite off more than I could chew.
I was never one for the wait and see way of doing things. The money that he was asking for was astronomical and that would certainly put him over the top for marketing dollars. He was going to need every advantage he could get and according to sources within his own party headquarters, the house of cards was about to fall over.
“I’m going to give you a sizable donation which is definitely going to exceed your expectations. I do want a future where the two of us can profit in unimaginable ways.” I was still feeling flushed, flustered and wondering how I could end this conversation without seeming suspicious. “I’ll have the funds wired to you by the end of day tomorrow, but I need a couple of assurances.” It was about this time that I came to realize this might be the only way to assert my dominance.
“I get this funny feeling in the pit of my stomach that I’m not going to like this. I should refrain from answering until I know a little bit more information, but I am literally at your mercy.” I wasn’t sure that was true and he always had a funny way of bouncing back on his feet after insurmountable odds standing in his way.
“I need you to remember this the next time that I might do something you don’t agree with. It’s the one condition I have before I part with my hard earned dollars. I trust you, but I know better than anyone politicians can be deceitful at the best of times. You never know what the one hand is doing behind their back.” I could’ve been getting in bed with the devil, but this wouldn’t be the first time or the last time that I had some shady dealings.
“If that is what it takes then you have nothing to worry about. I forgave you after the fiasco of losing millions in a harebrained scheme that was supposed to be a lock.” He was blinded by the dollar signs in his eyes and had he given it some thought he might have understood this was my way to make him indebted to me
“I’ll need 24 hours, but I’m not going to promise you anything. I don’t necessarily know what kind of liquid cash I have on hand and you’re just going to have to be patient. I do need some time and your gracious offer to rest is something I’m not going to turn down.” He didn’t necessarily get the answer he wanted and I was still quite positive that he was going to kill me after everything was said and done.
The stress around his eyes and the way his shoulders were hunched gave the impression that he had a lot of balls in the air. Juggling all them at the same time must have felt like a never ending cycle out of his control.
“By all means, take all the time you need, but remember they are waiting for you to mingle with the guests. They all came here for you, but I might have gotten them here under false pretenses. I can’t depend on you alone and I had to make some hard decisions which affect my business relationships. I’m going to need that cash in 24 hours. One minute more and things could become slightly awkward.” I didn’t want to do anything to give him any reason to cut me out of his life and he wasn’t wrong when he said that this was my family.
“I think you know by now that I’m usually a man of my word and this is important to you. I hope you didn’t do anything foolish and you always make rash decisions when you’re up against the wall. Don’t risk your family over money and life is too short to let the almighty dollar rule over you.” He was scratching the stubble on his chin, his eyes closed and his hands interlocked over his forehead like something very heavy was going to come crashing down on top of him.
“Depending on anybody has never been my strong suit and I don’t like the idea of owing somebody some kind of favor yet to be named.” He did have a tendency to put out his hand and not in a welcoming gesture. He would rob Peter to pay Paul and it would become something of a shell game where he would accrue the kind of debt which would strangle most people.
“Our friendship doesn’t come with an expiry date and I will always be there whether I agree with your decisions or not. We all make grave errors of judgment sometimes for the better and sometimes for the worse. It’s a law of averages and as long as you can balance the scales then you might stand a chance.” I wondered if the money Samantha had gotten from me did anything besides cost her the purity of her body.
I did feel guilty and this was the only reason why I was even contemplating sticking my head into the lion’s den of politics. I could easily lose the money, but that wasn’t very important. I was putting things into place and stepping in at the last minute to save his campaign was a good way to keep him from grabbing his gun. What I had done with Samantha was wrong, but the only way to prevent it from happening again was to take drastic action.
“Nicholas, I hope you don’t think I’m taking advantage of you and I would have never even asked you if I didn’t feel that I was in a tough position. We go back a long way and I would never presume to take you down with me in a sinking ship. I have every intention of paying back your investment 10 times over and you can take that to the bank.” There were no guarantees in life and I always thought there was no room for those who were looking to make their fortune on my back.
“Think nothing of it and I already feel closer to your family than ever before.” I would give him a painful reminder of what I just said when the truth somehow came out. It was going to be a rude awakening and I was going to have to take this one step at a time.
This was his private office and I was lying down on the couch. He closed the door and lowered the lights making me feel like the walls were closing in on me. I’d never been claustrophobic, but this betrayal was bringing about some very disturbing side effects.
I had turned my back toward the door and then I heard the unmistakable sound of someone turning the handle to come inside. I waited with my breath short and my body in high demand for what Samantha could give me. This would be the final time and saying goodbye was never easy.
I didn’t hear her high heels hitting the floor and she was making a conscious effort to be quiet. Stumbling in the dark and stubbing her toe was not on the agenda. There was nothing holding us back and I didn’t want anything to manipulate my decision on whether or not this was a good idea.
“I was wondering how long it was going to take you to come up here to join me. You have no idea how agonizing it is to talk to him and have you on my mind. We really do need to talk and I’ve given this a lot of thought.” Her hot breath was tickling the back of my neck and I could feel the signs of arousal pressing up against my pants.
Her tongue touched the rim of my earlobe, tugging at it with her teeth and I was powerless to resist.
I turned and was greeted with her masked face wearing the same little black dress which had become quite the focal point for when she was down on her knees under the table.
My focus was on the strawberry gloss and the taste of her lips when she kissed me. It was different, not quite what I remembered, but the half of my anatomy on the rise wasn’t complaining.
“I like this game you’re playing and something tells me that you are a little bit too excited for your own good.” She was palming the evidence of the heated missile and the way that she was rubbing me into submission was better than some who claimed they were only there for my pleasure.
“You should really see what you do to me.” Her voice was muffled through the mask and she was purposely making things more electric by keeping things anonymous.
The sound of her breathing was making every part of me feel charged with electricity. Any self-control vanished with the high voltage chemistry between us. My fingers decided to take a walk on their own, slowly sliding up her long and luscious leg. Her leg was soft and whatever razor she used had made her feel like velvet against my fingertips.
“I’m getting very close and I can almost imagine what awaits me.” I could hear her moaning underneath her breath, but I could barely see her which only compounded the desire to push the envelope. I didn’t want to argue all day when it was more pleasurable to make love all night.
I was waiting for her to say no, but those words never even entered into her vocabulary. I found her without panties and I was trying to hold back, but there was no way that I was going to win this battle of wills. I found myself turning right when I should’ve been turning left. It was a different path, but one that made me realize time was running short. The new component of this relationship had grown considerably. What I thought was going to be boring turned out to be something more than I expected.
It was when I touched her mound that I froze in place and I reached for the lamp to find the object of my affection wasn’t who I thought it was.
Chapter twenty-four
Samantha
I found a way to get lost in the crowd, moving from one conversation to another until I was at the stairs in the kitchen leading to the second floor. There was only the catering staff going about their business and they never even recognized that was in the room.
“I don’t know where you think you are going, but this is not the time to run out on your father. Your makeup is ghastly and I suggest you go up to the washroom and clean up. You can use the master ensuite and that should tell you how important tonight is to him.” My mother had caught me red handed, but she had no idea what was currently simmering on a low heat upstairs.
My mother could have asked me why my lipstick was like that, but she was showing remarkable restraint and keeping things cordial.
“It would seem that I wasn’t watching what I was doing and maybe I should have taken a few more steps towards the mirror. Don’t worry; I’m not going to do anything to ruin father’s big night of fundraising. We both know it wasn’t meant for him. He always has an angle and why that even surprises me anymore is beyond me.” I was still the same little girl tugging at her apron even though I was a full grown woman in the prime of my life.
“I would hope you would trust me enough not to lie to my face. Nobody else seems to notice, but you have been staying close to Nicholas. I hope your father never finds out and if I were you, I would end it before things turn ugly in this family.” I didn’t know I was that transparent, but there was never a time in my childhood that I could get away with anything with those eyes in the back of her head.
“I’m begging you not to say anything and it would be better coming from us. I’m not looking forward to the way that his face is going to turn different shades of red. You know that sometimes a heart wants what it shouldn’t have. This is a painful reminder of how life can be cruel and rewarding at the same time.” I saw my father returning to the living room and easily immersing himself into a conversation like he hadn’t even left the room. It was a gift and one that he utilized on many occasions to get what he wanted.
“I’m glad you are stepping up and showing responsibility for your actions. It shows that you don’t want to make your father into a laughingstock. I want you to seriously consider ending things. If what you’re doing with Nicholas isn’t more than physical then it shouldn’t be a hardship to let him go.” I took a deep breath and I think she knew things between Nicholas and me wasn’t something to fade into the woodwork.
“I never wanted to hurt either one of you, but this is bigger than all of us combined. I do have feelings for him and I believe in the way that he speaks to me and the way that he looks at me that those feelings are returned.” She didn’t look happy, but she wasn’t screaming.
“This thing between you and Nicholas better be important enough to risk alienating your father. I would ask respectfully that you keep things quiet until after he’s elected. It shouldn’t be more than a couple of months. He deserves more than to have his world come crashing down. I’m going to take it upon myself to save him and you and Nicholas better keep these feelings to yourselves.” She wasn’t giving me her blessing, but she wasn’t going to do anything to ruin what could be one of the happiest times of my life.
“I will have to take it up with him and I will stand beside him with whatever decision he makes. Don’t be so sure that he’s going to comply and he has already expressed concern about keeping this a secret for too long as it is.” It was nice to have somebody to talk to, but I had a feeling this conversation was going to be the last she wanted to hear of this.
“I need you to think about your father and what this could do to his campaign. I wouldn’t want to get in between him and his political aspirations. It is better to hear it from you than anybody else, but surely you understand the need for discretion. I saw how you disappeared and how Nicholas’s face changed. It didn’t take a rocket scientist to understand what you were doing under the table.” I was ashamed and embarrassed and how she was looking at me made me feel like I was 2-feet tall.
“It was exciting and I make no excuses other than we really can’t seem to keep our hands off of one another. Just to get close to him has made my life complete. He’s not using me for sex and I really don’t think this is a conversation you want to be having.” I was no good without him and I had never been in the position of needing anyone.
“I’ve been where you’re at and your father was a bad boy which was an appeal for someone that was pretty much sheltered from what is considered the real world. Sneak around and enjoy yourselves. By the time he’s elected, there’s no telling where your relationship will be at that moment. It could be still going strong or fizzle like a candle in the night.” She was probably hoping for the latter, but I was looking toward to the future instead of the present.
“I will take everything you say under advisement, but there’s nothing I can do if he wants to come clean. I would say it is a testament to his character and the longer this goes on the stronger his feelings will get.” She was interrupted by questions from the catering staff and I used that to slip quietly up the stairs with my high heels in my hands.
I knew this place like the back of my hand and I found the master bedroom fairly quickly. I went inside and used the bathroom a little bit surprised that he wasn’t there waiting for me. I thought we had agreed to meet in the bathroom, but something had changed his course of direction.
I remembered how he was cornered by my father and I was in the position of listening to every word with his best friend’s cock in my mouth. It was hard not to get a giddy thrill out of doing something like that with my father standing oblivious to what was obviously going on right in front of him.
My father did have an office and I would check to make sure that Nicholas was there. I made my way down the hall cautious of any voices that might attract my attention. His office was his refuge from the headaches of the day.
The door was closed and I went closer until I had my ear against the wood grain. I heard something and the moans of pleasure made me wonder who would possibly have the gall to have sex in my father’s office.
I couldn’t hear what was being said, but it was most likely whispers of encouragement to take things to the next level of intimacy. It was kinda fun to be the fly on the wall, but my curiosity was getting the best of me.
I looked up and down the hall to make sure nobody was going to witness my attempt to sneak a peek into a private moment between two lovers in the throes of passion. I turned the handle half expecting to find it locked from the inside, but in their haste to be with one another they had left themselves open to an audience.
The room was bathed in darkness and I could see two figure’s over by the couch. Growing up, I would always sneak into the room in the middle of the night and stay there by my father’s side until he finished with his day to day work. If I was awake, he would teach me the finer points of business acquisition, but it was just a comfort to know that he was at hand.
It seemed wrong they were conducting themselves in such a manner and they were destroying a little girl’s memory of some father and daughter alone time.
I was about to turn on the light to catch them in the act, but they beat me to the punch. The lamp beside the couch came on and the girl on her knees had her hand clutched to something that I thought belonged to me.
“It’s not what you think and I can explain.” Those words were what every woman feared would happen and each time it was always what you thought and there was no explanation.
Chapter twenty-five
Nicholas
I could see her standing there at the door with her mouth wide open in shock at what she was witnessing with her own eyes. Tina was a long ago acquaintance and I had invited her to the party.
“Do you want to try again or is this the story you’re going to stick with? I wish that men could be honest, but I really thought you were one of the good ones.” Tina had become something of a means to an end. I had requested her services and there was no way to put the genie back in the bottle.
“Little girl, isn’t it obvious what is happening and you certainly didn’t think he was a one woman kind of guy.” Tina was playing the part we had agreed to and the only way to escape was to let things continue. I didn’t want to hurt Samantha and her family. The only way she was going to leave me was by being with another woman.
“I can’t believe you would do this to me and you better have something more to say for yourself than it’s not what it looks like. Don’t treat me like I don’t have a brain in my head.” I wasn’t expecting Tina to turn things up a notch, but finding me without realizing I was waiting for Samantha was a good way to make things seem like I was cheating on her.
“It’s better this happened now than later and I can’t be trusted which I’m sure you can agree with. I didn’t mean for this to happen, but men like me need more than what one woman can offer. We don’t have to make this any more than what it is.” She was fuming and the act perpetrated had worked better than expected. It was crazy to think this was a good idea and being with Samantha was going to cause all sorts of problems.
“This has to be some sort of joke, but do you see any teeth to indicate that I’m laughing. You would turn down the opportunity to be with me for some floozy with no morals to speak of. She only wants one thing and I’m not talking about what is currently in her hand.” Tina was a past love and we had kept in contact over the years with both of us promising to be there when the chips were down.
I would have acquired Jessica’s services for such an occasion, but it seemed more real coming from a socialite with enough plastic surgery to last a lifetime. She didn’t need to go under the knife, but she was always self-conscious about her image. She had a reputation to uphold and one that required her to be front and center during public appearances. Her job was in the private sector of pharmaceuticals.
“If you don’t mind, could you close the door on your way out and Nicholas and I have some unfinished business to conduct under the covers. I know this is not what you want to hear, but maybe you should stick to someone your own age.” I might’ve been a little older, but this comment from Tina was well below the belt. I was tempted to bring this to an end and tell the truth, but I just couldn’t bring myself to say anything to contradict what Tina was saying.
“I need to hear you say it and I want you to make me believe it. I’ve been waiting for the right one and I should’ve known your only purpose was to get into my pants. I hope the money was well worth it and I would hate to think that I disappointed you. Sleeping with you for the money was the most degrading thing I’ve ever done in my life. Don’t talk to me and if I see you drowning I’m going to offer you a glass of water.” She slammed the door leaving me to wonder if I did the right thing.
“Nicholas, I don’t want to judge unfairly, but she really did love you. I did this because you asked me to, but I’m not feeling very good about it. Are you sure you’re doing the right thing by cutting her loose like that? I don’t want to be the reason for your happiness. I will say that you may have dodged a bullet and I have some information which might be quite troubling.” She whispered into my ear, sitting on my lap and letting me feel the hunger of her body grinding in a slow circle.
“I don’t believe you and I’m going to need some kind of confirmation before acting on this information. Do you have any idea what you’re saying? If this is even remotely true then I’ve seriously given this man too much ammunition.” Betrayal was the worst thing that anybody could commit and to have it happen closer to home was causing my head to spin.
“If you don’t believe me then you should talk to Jessica and she wanted me to tell you because she didn’t want to do it herself.” I immediately made a call and found that the information was irrefutable.
“I still don’t believe it, but I can adapt to just about anything. I am going to make him pay and you know what they say about keeping your friends close and your enemies even closer. You’ll know what to do with the information sent to you and I expect results sooner than later. I can be a friend, but the one thing you don’t want is to make me an enemy.” I was sitting up and I could tell that Tina wanted more than anything to make things more physical.
“I know how you get, Nicholas and the only enemy you really need to worry about is you. He must’ve had a good reason and maybe you should talk to him before you take this kind of action. You have to admit that once it’s done then there’s no way to take it back. I will give you a couple of hours to change your mind. I owe you a debt and I hope this little act will clean the slate. This time you’ll be the one to owe me a favor, but not until you give me the green light to go forward.” I sometimes go off half cocked, but life had a funny way of throwing curveballs when I least expected it.
“Confronting him will be the least of his worries and once this information passes to the right hands then everything will change. His pristine image will be tarnished and his life will never be the same again. I might have my demons, but I keep them buried deep unlike some people.” Jackson was only the tip of the iceberg and what he had alluded to was coming back to punch me in the face.
“I will await your call and I hope for the sake of your sanity it never comes. You have skirted the dark side, but I’m afraid that this will push you over the edge. You fight with every fiber of your being to stay within the lines of reason. Doing this will change you and the dark side I mentioned already will become second nature. Nobody will be immune.” I had a lot to think about and losing Samantha was a huge blow to my mental well being.
“Expect me to call within the hour and I don’t want to hear you try to change my mind again. I can’t stand somebody smiling in front of me and holding a knife behind their back. It’s the little things that get to me and I thought we were above this kind of petty maneuver.” I was ready to be the kind of man Samantha could be proud of, but this was something unavoidable.
“I want you to weigh the pros and cons of bringing this to the press. He may never know where it came from, but this will fester inside like a cancer. You’ll lose a part of your soul and I doubt that you’ll ever be able to get it back. If it’s all the same to you, this is not a man I want to associate myself with and keeping my distance might be a wise decision.” I felt nothing and my whole body was numb like I had been immersed into a bathtub full of ice.
She left me alone and I stayed completely still looking at the wall. I wanted to break something, become a one-man wrecking crew, but to him, this was nothing more than a business move.
I got up and opened the window wide enough to throw myself on the mercy of the pavement below. I had my hands on the windowsill feeling this need to scream at the moon like some kind of maniac. I was grinning, feeling like what I had for Samantha was meant to fall apart in my hands and knowing it was almost comical how those actions came back full circle.
I could almost forgive him considering what I was doing with his daughter. I went back and forth during that hour on what to do. If I were to allow him to get away with this then it would set a dangerous precedent.
I made the phone call and was grateful that Tina was willing to pick up after the 10th ring. “I was hoping my unwillingness to pick up would give you food for thought. I’ll make the arrangements and you might just make the front page of the early edition. The press is going to have a field day and you do know his campaign is going to become nothing more than forgotten history.” I didn’t say anything and my silence was more than enough to confirm this was how I was going to handle things with Samantha’s father.
Chapter twenty-six
Samantha
The estate was surrounded by press and outside the gate; they were clamoring for a sound bite from my father about the embezzlement charges. They had received anonymously a package and those in my father’s pocket felt obligated to act despite his pleas to the contrary.
“I know who did this and my political career is gone. The court has decided to press charges and I was lucky to get house arrest until I have to appear to answer to the charges. I have convened this family meeting because I want you to know how serious the situation is.” It had been two weeks and Nicholas was nowhere to be seen. I went looking for him curious to know why he would attempt to derail my father’s career.
“He’s been your best friend for longer than we’ve been married and I never took him for being this vindictive. Are you sure there isn’t something you want to tell us about the reason why he might make this kind of declaration of war?” I wanted to hate him, but there was no way that he was going to do something this heinous without thinking about the consequences.
“I’ve tried to shield the both of you from those deals not exactly legal. I couldn’t hope to win the political race without considerable backing. Someone came to me and made me a deal I couldn’t refuse. I regret what I did, but I only did it because on paper it seemed like the right idea. I was the one who betrayed our friendship and how he found out is not the issue.” This was the first time I was hearing anything about this and it was no wonder Nicholas had taken steps to make sure my father knew not to trifle with him.
“It’s no wonder he hasn’t been in touch and every attempt to reach out to him has come back with nothing to show for it.” I’d almost washed my hands of Nicholas without knowing all the facts. He still cheated on me and that was a poison pill to swallow.
“I don’t need a lecture and what I need is for somebody to do damage control. I took what was left in the campaign funding to hire a shark of a lawyer and a personal representative. He’s known as a fixer among certain circles and if anybody can weather this storm it’s going to be him. I do need to make amends for what I did to Nicholas, but I can’t do that if he’s not willing to listen to reason. I know he’s still in town and he’s hiding out in his penthouse.” I thought he had flown the coop, but there had to be a reason why he was sticking around.
It could’ve been as simple as watching my father’s world come tumbling down one brick at a time or maybe he was regretting sleeping with another woman behind my back. Could it be that he was looking for a second chance and maybe my nights of crying myself to sleep were over?
“I am willing to go to him on your behalf and get him to give you a second chance. He’s undoubtedly hurt by your betrayal and seeing you can only lead to violence. Mother is right and at least we know the reason why he hasn’t been in touch.” This would kill two birds with one stone and my father was willing to listen to anyone to get this monkey off his back.
“I’m glad that you’re willing to do this for your family, Samantha. You know what it takes to get things done and you have that in common with your mother. Do what you can, but if I know him as well as I think I do, I don’t think that you’re going to get past the doorman.” He underestimated my womanly charms and I would find a way to knock down any door along the way.
My father left the room to take a phone call and those balls he was juggling before was nothing compared to the law breathing down his neck. The press was willing to pay top dollar for his story, but it meant going in front of the cameras and admitting what he had done. He wasn’t willing to do that without exhausting every measure before throwing himself at the mercy of the public.
“I know what you’re doing and losing him to another woman must really stick in your craw. I’m sure you have the misguided notion of making him see you as the injured party. Don’t cave easily and you won’t do yourself any favors by falling on your sword. He needs to grovel and to beg for forgiveness before you even contemplate taking him back.”
“I believe in starting over and I know that his heart is one of the good ones. Telling father anything about me and Nicholas would be counterproductive. We don’t even know if he’s going to listen and I’m not even sure that I want him back after what he did.” I felt like I needed some closure and a way to finally put this behind me one way or the other.
“It’s taken a lot for me to keep quiet about your dalliance and what he did left you in pieces. You’ve had more than enough heartache to last you a lifetime. Don’t abandon your principles over a man with dimples who has the ability to change your mind.” It was too hard to breathe and sleeping at night meant that I was tossing and turning in my own denial.
“I am grateful and I know things could be vastly different if he were to use what we had together against my father. I would say he is showing remarkable restraint considering how he feels everybody is against him. Jackson fired the first salvo and that wound was still fresh when he learned about what father did.” Nicholas had circumvented what my father did and whatever markers he had was used to stop a hostile takeover.
He barely scraped out without losing his shirt, but those who felt it necessary to attack had found out what it was like to have egg on their face.
“You’re my daughter and having you was the one good thing in my life besides marrying your father. I would gladly take a bullet for you and you know what they say about unconditional love. There is nothing purer than a mother’s love for her daughter and that’s a special bond which can never be broken by any harsh words spoken in the heat of the moment. Go and do what you need to do for yourself.” She wished me luck and my father didn’t need to know the extent of the reason why I was going over to see him.
“It’s not going to be easy and I have no idea what his state of mind is these days. Losing me and having his two best friends attack him for no other reason than financial gain is something that would break any normal man. Can you imagine what losing his best friend to suicide is going to do to him?” I did regret my part in ripping a hole in his heart and I was still smarting from seeing him cuddling up to another woman.
I prayed to come out of this in one piece, but I knew that Nicholas had a hold on me like an iron grip. He was my strength and guidance in a world that was unpredictable. I didn’t want to spend time fighting, but this wasn’t going to end until we had it out.
“The one thing your grandmother taught me was that anything worth doing is never easy. You can’t live without him or at least that is what you have convinced yourself. He makes you lose control of your senses. It’s nothing to be ashamed of and every girl has that one man who makes them do things against their better judgment. I don’t want him to be the one who got away unless the damage is beyond repair.” She was a wealth of advice and I had learned a long time ago to listen to her.
“It’s nice to hear you talk to me like I’m an adult and not some little girl.” She was there when I scraped my knee and she was the one who taught me how to bake. I didn’t get a chance to do it very often, but I did enjoy creating something with my own bare hands. She was one in a million and everybody said their mother was the best, but she was exceptional. She managed to raise a family and be the woman behind the man at the same time.
My father was normally a cool cucumber, but these were high stakes and they were causing him to lose his composure. His hair was an unruly mess and it didn’t look like he had dressed himself. His shirt was untucked and he wasn’t wearing a tie.
I was part of this madness and the family had a funny way of getting underneath my skin. There was nothing that I wouldn’t do to protect them. That was no more apparent than giving my virginity to a man who left my heart lying in the street like it was road kill.
We had always found a way to come together and this latest attack was not going to shake our resolve. My father wasn’t giving up and he was making a stand on the crumbling foundation of his political career.
I grabbed my keys on the way out the door and I was terrified of seeing him after everything that had transpired between us. Talking on the phone wasn’t going to be good enough and this was something that had to be done in person. I wouldn’t know if we had a chance until we came face to face.
Chapter twenty-seven
Nicholas
The lights were dimmed, but I could see the sun trying to break through the surface of the drapes. I had no idea what time it was and the last few days had become a blur of one bottle after another. I’d found salvation at the bottom of a bottle and my drink of choice became tequila.
I had left strict instructions to be left alone, but I had the semblance of mind to stick it to both Jackson and Samantha’s father. I’d watched the fiasco of the press tearing him to bits and it brought me no satisfaction like I thought it would.
I lifted my face and looked around at the carnage which had come courtesy of my own hands. Drinking made me angry and the angrier I got the more that I wanted to trash what was left of my life. Jackson had felt what it was like to be on the receiving end of my wrath.
His attempt to outbid me left him to wonder who was driving the truck. I had pulled in a lot of favors and they were ones I wanted to keep for a rainy day. It didn’t seem like the weather was going to change anytime soon. It was raining litigation and I was left no other recourse than to act.
I heard about his suicide and apparently, he had made a lot of promises which he couldn’t keep. Seeing the report on the news about his death sent me into a tailspin which I wasn’t sure how to recover from. I only wanted to teach him a lesson not realizing that the debts he owed had come due. He had a lot riding on those contracts and when they were gone he was left with nothing but recrimination.
I heard the elevator and I managed to stand up even though my head felt like a 10-pound weight. I was ready to cut a switch off of the person that was going to deem it necessary to interrupt my solitude. I was grieving in my own way and ironically, the only person that could ever reach me during these times of crisis was Jackson.
The door opened and the fire poker I was brandishing fell from my hands with a very loud clang on the floor. Standing there like an angel from heaven sent down when I was at my lowest was the woman I owed everything to.
“You shouldn’t have come here and don’t you think I have hurt you more than enough? I see that your father is not going to go down without a fight.” I’d heard through the Grapevine that he was recruiting a cutthroat lawyer and a well-known publicist. He was going to have his work cut out for him, but if there was any shortcut to an uneasy victory in court then he would find it.
“I know you’re not going to believe this, but he’s very sorry for what he did. There were people holding him to the fire using his greed against him. They saw him as an easy way to go after you and it was just lucky that you found out about it in the nick of time.” She looked lovely in a red dress that barely covered the essentials.
“I haven’t even thought about him and I have better things to do than worry about his feelings. I never saw it coming and I was lucky to get a heads up. You can’t possibly believe any of what you see here today is because of him. You’re lucky you came alone, but I’m in no shape to tell you what you want to hear.” My eyes were bloodshot and I could see my reflection on the glass surface of the elevator behind her. I did look frightening and something to be avoided at all costs.
“The doorman was very adamant, but I slipped past him when he was in the middle of a frank discussion with his wife. It was fortuitous that she showed up when she did and maybe there is a reason for all of this which we can’t see at the moment.” I was going to have to make some allowances for the doorman and he was going through a nasty divorce.
“You said what you came to say and you can leave the same way you came.” She was no longer the scared little girl I remembered when she was younger and standing before me was somebody with an invincible ability to survive any misfortune. I envied her and hated her at the same time for not allowing what I had done to keep her from picking herself back up.
“I want to know the truth.” I didn’t know why, but it brought to mind an old movie which was currently in my collection.
“You want the truth…you really want the truth…you can’t handle the truth.” I burst out laughing and being under the influence of alcohol made me susceptible to my own ranting.
I was still holding the last of the tequila and I placed it up to my lips only to have it slapped from my hand. It crashed to the floor and whatever liquid sustenance was now lost to me in a scatter of broken glass.
“Jackson would never condone the way you’re acting. He would be the first one to call you on the carpet and I feel it’s my duty to step in where he can’t. I can handle the truth, but I don’t think what I saw that night was what it appeared to be. Standing here in front of you, I see you for who you are and I know there had to be a reason.” She was locked and loaded and I could feel the fire in her soul.
“What does it matter? I ruin lives and it would be best for you to run in the opposite direction. Looking at you makes me feel like I’m drowning without a life preserver. I feel hot and hazy when I’m looking at you, but maybe that’s just the liquor talking.” There were bags underneath my eyes, but the one thing she was not going to find was a female form lying underneath me.
She grabbed me by the white robe I was wearing and it wasn’t even cinched tightly. She pushed me back until I fell into a chair and then she leaned forward with her perfume becoming something of a lie detector.
“Tell me to leave and you’ll never see me again. If that is what you really want then all you need to do is say the words. Be careful and what you say next is going to be the difference between how we’re going to spend the rest of our lives.” She had my undivided attention and her finger on my lips with her painted purple nail was enough to break the stalemate.
“I don’t want you to be here.” I had no idea how I was even able to get those words out of my mouth.
“I hear what you’re saying, but I don’t feel it from inside. I want you to try again and put a little more emphasis on the words.” She was tapping my chest in defiance and I took a deep breath before grabbing it in my fist.
“It wasn’t what you believed it to be and I set it up to make you leave me. I felt bad about what I did and I was never going to stop being with you. I used my friendship with the woman you saw me with to give me a way out. I was a coward and I wouldn’t blame you if you never forgave me.” She was staring at me and then the straps on her dress lowered until I saw her in a two-piece ensemble which left my tongue dragging on the floor.
The flimsy material was almost see-through and her nipples were very well pronounced. I squirmed noticeably in my chair, feeling the rising phoenix from the ashes and knowing she was responsible for my reaction.
“You make me so mad, but I have given you all of my loving and there’s no taking it back. I’m crazy for you and the anger I feel from you trying to make me look like a fool is drawing its own conclusions.” Her bra fell into her hands and then she grabbed the sides of her panties and made my eyes follow them all the way down her luscious legs until they were around her ankles.
“I don’t deserve you.” She was the only person who made any sense in a world where there were doubt and confusion. I thought I had it all together never realizing the Damocles sword swinging above my head was courtesy of my two best friends.
“That’s the one thing we agree on and you have a lot to make up for. The one thing I don’t regret is giving you my virginity. I only wish that it was done under better circumstances. I was desperate, but I don’t think that I could’ve done any better than offering you the gift that keeps on giving.” Her mound was bald as a cue ball and the wetness seeping along the lips drew my mouth to her like I had no will of my own.
She lifted her leg and placed her foot on the inside of my thighs. She was using her bare toes to tickle my family jewels and I gasped from the slight sensation which was only going to get better over time.
“I don’t need your pity and if you don’t leave now then I won’t be responsible for what happens next.” This was her one chance to save face, but it didn’t look like she was willing to leave without showing her resolve.
“This isn’t pity and you might be the biggest idiot when it comes to knowing what a woman wants. Let me spell it out for you and it appears that I’m going to have to make you understand. I have always been yours from the moment you sealed the deal in the hotel room.” She had found me when I was vulnerable and I had no choice but to give in.
I gave her the chance to leave and that window of opportunity had closed with the feel of my lips touching her sex. Her words were breaking through my despair and her taste was enough to awaken all of my senses. I touched the softness of her inner thigh and I felt her quiver. I drove the insistent spear of my tongue into the wet folds of her orifice.
I was welcomed by a tight embrace, twisting around the invading force of my tongue and I felt alive for the first time after hearing the news of my friend’s demise. It was a delight served hot from the oven and my hand was priming the metal pipe between my legs.
Getting it out of my pants was becoming more difficult because of my diminished capacity. I still knew what I was doing, but I was feeling no pain.
“Let me do that for you.” She very easily reached into the opening and pulled me out to where I was surrounded by the warmth of her fist. The way that she was moving her fingers delicately up and down the shaft was causing me to lose focus on what I was doing.
I had to concentrate, delivering some of my best work and forcefully injecting a finger so that I could touch on that bundle of nerves inside her known as her G spot. She was shaking and my tongue retreated long enough to attach itself to her clit. It was quite enlarged and I easily consumed what was becoming her Achilles’ heel.
“I knew there was something I liked about you and I think you just touched on what it is. Fuck…this isn’t possible and yet the proof is in the way I’m coming unglued.” She moaned, throwing her head back, but this was what I was waiting for. Letting go of me left my cock ready for more than what her fingers could do.
She gyrated against my face, holding me in place with her hands on the top of my head like she thought that I was going to leave her at the moment of her release. There was no way I could do that and it was way too much fun to play her body like a musical instrument. I knew which chords to strum to make the kind of music which could only be heard by the two of us.
I stood up without warning, finding her swaying on her feet and I turned her around with my lips on the nape of her neck. My anxious libido was pressed up behind her and then I was rewarded by her bending over. I was fighting fire with fire. I was willing to do just about anything to get a taste of her.
“I don’t know what you’re waiting for.” I shut her up by putting my hand over her mouth and spreading her out with two fingers from the other hand. My cock was engorged and I held my breath to see one of the wonders of the universe staring me in the eyes.
“If you don’t mind, I need a moment and it’s not every day a man like me has a woman like you. I’m trying to not ask the question, but I think I need to know the reason why you want me in your life.” I wasn’t sure it was a good idea to pull at that thread and I had no idea how she was going to answer the question posed.
I was moving the knob up and down the slick lips before the initial penetration
“Don’t be silly and we both know how this came about. If you need confirmation about my feelings then let actions speak louder than words.” She grabbed me and guided me with a gentle touch until I was balls deep in the sweetest and tightest little hole. Each time I was with her there was nothing more enticing than seeing her take my cock.
I was begging her not to go with my arms wrapped around her and I only had to dip low to find every inch being serviced in a way that didn’t seem fair. It was like tiny fingers vibrating along my shaft and making the hairs stand on end.
“We’re both cut from the same cloth and I don’t care if I’m not good enough for you. I’m sure a lot of guys feel the same way about the woman they are with. You could easily be a trophy wife, but I don’t see you using your body to get what you want. I see the way your lips hold me tight and the wetness covering me. I’m reminded that you could do a whole lot better than me.” She was taking long hard strokes which were making her stand on her toes on every inward thrust. The loud smack against her bottom courtesy of my hand made her jump and give off a squirt along the length of my manhood.
“Do it again and this time don’t be so gentle.” She was a woman after my own heart and my handprint became something of a tattoo on her skin. She was feeding on it and I was taking my pleasure from the way that she would groan in response.
“You are too much and no man should be able to resist a woman like you. I shouldn’t be expected to last long, but I feel I owe it to my gender to give you the kind of stamina you deserve.” I was rapidly closing in on the plateau of my pleasure, but I wasn’t going to do anything until she found her own little death.
“Yes… It’s coming… It’s almost…here… AHHHHHH.” She was contained for the moment and the way that her body was taking no prisoners had me struggling to remain in the saddle.
I wasn’t feeling right and I had a high fever burning south of the equator. I wanted to last longer, but the way that she was squeezing the living daylights out of me was enough to make any man stumble over his own 2-feet. She took me away on the wings of pleasure and there was no better sound than a woman breaking the sound barrier.
I let loose with several shots of creamy jizz. I was holding her tight against me while making the loudest moan of arousal I had ever made in my life. I sounded like an animal mating in the wild.
I was completely out of it and I fell back not realizing the chair was going to break my fall. She climbed into my lap and put her head on my shoulder with the remnants of my release drizzling down the inside of her thighs.
I did have a brief discussion with her father in person and we came to a tenuous peace. Trust was something that was going to have to be built over time, but I didn’t want to lose my best friend.
We did tell him about the both of us and he was understandably ready to throw down the gloves. Samantha was the one who convinced him this was out of his hands. He was going to be mad for quite some time and it was going to take me a little while to get over his betrayal. We would eventually come together after learning of my impending fatherhood and what was going to be his first grandchild.
I sold the penthouse, getting a hefty sum from a market ripe with buyers looking to break into the real estate game. I found the perfect place to raise a family with a water view and steps to the beach. We signed the papers and received the keys within a week of seeing the place.
I felt at peace for the first time in my life and she was already showing after only a short few weeks of being with child. She was behind me in the kitchen baking cookies with the smell of chocolate drawing me to her until my arms were cinched and I was on my knees giving her bare belly sweet kisses.
Her father found a loophole and was in the process of rebuilding his campaign, but this time he was going after a senator seat in Congress.
We had found a slice of paradise and her family was only one call away. It wasn’t the ideal way, but I was never one to do things the easy way. The reward was worth the risk for the both of us.
