The downtown club was jam packed with patrons. The evening was young, and the air still fresh. A few people had started dancing while others were getting their first drinks and chatting with their friends. When we appeared on stage, they started cheering but soon quietened down as we start performing. I realized how much I had missed performing with the others.
All was going well until I saw him.
Mason was seated on the first table in the VIP lounge watching me with keen eyes. I faltered a bit after seeing him but somehow managed to get my composure back. Making a conscious effort to avoid him, I belted out words while gyrating my body to the beat. As the patrons started cheering and singing along some of the songs, my confidence increased and I drowned myself in the music forgetting about Mason and his steely eyes.
As we started singing famous singing of other musicians, the crowd becomes livelier. I enjoyed myself and the attention we were getting. My favorite part about performing is getting lost in the music, letting it consume and lead me. It’s a high I don’t think anything else can make me feel.
When we finished, I felt tired but a bit disappointed because I had been enjoying performing way too much. Even before we got off the stage, the DJ started playing other songs, more upbeat ones sending the whole building into a frenzy. It was like everyone in the ordinary section has gone wild.
I glanced at the VIP section. They were all as stiff and boring as always. A few girls had stood up and were dancing. I thought ink even if I had money, I would always go to the ordinary section. That was where all the fun was.
The only thing I liked about performing for the ultra-rich is the pay, but they are not the best audience. I liked ordinary people who are wild and free. I liked to think of myself as one such person.
We went backstage and got out of our costumes. I put on a black pair of jeans and threw on a red tank top then a black cardigan. I let my wildly curly hair out of the ponytail and let it loose. Wiping the red lipstick, I applied pink, a softer color before we made our way to the dance floor.
The smell of sweaty dancing bodies, perfume, and alcohol had mixed together to form an unrecognizable scent. Heading to the bar, I ordered a drink. When it was handed to me, I turned but ended up bumping into someone spilling the drink.
“I’m so-.” Upon looking up, I see that it’s Dave. My heart leapt and I hugged him tight. “Oh my goodness, baby. When did you get back?”
Dave hugged me tighter before loosening the hold and kissing me. “A few minutes ago. I had to come and see my baby before anything else.”
“Ohh, such a lover.” I commented. “I’m so happy to see you back.”
I felt happiness in my heart again after seeing him. It felt like it had been years since I last saw him. Running my hands all over his body, everything came back to me. I had seen him for barely a minute and my body was already charged. There was a fire deep inside that only he could ignite. That was why I could not ever think of my life without him ever again.
“You spilled your whole drink on me, though.”
“Sorry babe. You know I’ll make it up to you later,” I said with a wink.
Dave chuckled and kissed me again. “I missed you so much. Why don’t we skip the drinks and just go home. It’s been too long.”
“Why not?” I said. That was music to my ears. No drink would be able to make me feel the way he did.
Dave and I pushed through the hundreds of sweaty and soft, sweaty bodies to make it out of the club. Once outside, he started kissing me roughly and I reciprocated, my body feeling the most alive.
I pulled away and we dragged ourselves through the parking lot to where his car was parked. We kissed again and almost did it in the car but we knew we could end up in jail if we did so. Dave started the car and drove fast. Safety was forgotten because all we wanted was to get home.
He occasionally touched my leg, making me even more impatient than I was. We finally got to his building with our bodies intact. Like young lovers, we dashed into the building laughing happily. That, the stairs were nothing and we climbed them in record time.
As soon as the door opened, we stepped in and start consuming each other’s mouths as if we hadn’t seen each other in five years. I wasted no time and immediately got rid of my jeans. If I had known that he was coming I wouldn’t have worn them.
Dave removed his clothes as well. When we were both naked, he pulled me to him. I stepped forward and grinded against his erect member. My wetness coated it and I released a moan as my body started demanding for it. Dave led me to the bedroom and I pushed him onto the bed and slid right onto his strong and big shaft.
When I start moving, I felt so good I thought I was going to climax right then and there. Moving up and down left my whole body weak with pleasure. Then suddenly, I felt his release and stopped moving when he released a moan and twisted his face. Pulling out, I stared at his face. That was quick.
“Sorry,” he said with closed eyes. “It’s been so long and you felt so good. I couldn’t hold it in. you’re so sweet baby.”
Sighing, I lay on the other side of the bed. To say I was disappointed was an understatement. We always made love for a long enough time. Honestly. I understood his situation but that didn’t mean I liked it. Being with a one minute man is quite frustrating. I could only hope that the second round would be better. This had never happened before and I didn’t know how to deal with such a situation.
While I waited for him to recover, I stared at the ceiling. As I was still waiting, his breathing started to get heavy. Sitting up, I stared at his face and noticed he had slept off. Rolling my eyes, I got up to get a drink. Maybe if I got drunk enough, I would be able to get some sleep.
While I was seated on the couch in the living room, I began to think about Mason. I tried to shake the thoughts of him out of my head. I should be thinking about Dave, I told myself. He had been very good to me and one mishap should not make me think of replacing him.
Besides, he was probably tired from the long drive. I had to be understanding as everything was not about the sex. I had to give him time and hope we would have a great time like before.
Taking the bottle of wine back to the cabinet, I decided to return to the bed and lie next to the man I loved. I lay facing his side and place my arm over his chest while the other remained tucked under my body. It was not the best position as the couch was not very wide but I needed to be feeling him so that my thoughts don’t stray. Besides, I didn’t want to wake him yet.
The next morning, I woke up to find Dave gone.
What the hell, I thought as I sat up. He was the one who disappointed me but he had the guts to leave when I was asleep. I spotted a note on the stool and grab it.Had to leave for an early meeting with one of our distributors. Xo, Dave.My shoulders drooped. Getting out of bed, I stalked to the living room where I had left my bag. Opening it, I fished out my phone. It was 6:54 am. He had never had to go for meetings that early. Was he hiding or just so embarrassed about last night that he couldn’t face me. I realized I had to do something to make him feel better. Dave had great sexual prowess and I was not about to let one lousy night ruin our happiness and his confidence.Dressing up, I locked the apartment and leave, heading for mine after sending him a good morning message. Cold air bit into my skin as I stepped out of the building. Since I didn’t live very far away, I decided to walk. It was time for my usual morning jog, anyway.When I get to the apartment, it was quiet and I
After our performance at Mason Steele’s house, one of the servers asked me to follow her to meet a guest who had asked for me.I was shocked to find a glamorous beauty waiting near the pool. She was standing under the lights, looking spectacular in a bright red dress and black heels. The woman had long wavy black hair and a very pretty, older woman face. Her lips were painted bright red and I hoped the words that would come out were not venomous. When she saw me approaching, she smiled and took a sip of her drink. “So, you are April Hartfield?” the woman asked. Her tone sounded a bit condescending which put me off immediately.“Yes, I am.” I said, confidently staring at her.“What do you know about, Mason Steele?” she asked.“Honestly, not much. We were invited to perform here. It’s Jenny, our manager who handles everything.”“You have been here three times, I believe.”I nodded. “What does that have to do with anything?”“Everything, my dear. You see, that handsome man is not for e
After the heated dance with Mason, he excused himself and went to meet another beautiful woman who had been staring at us. Looking around, I didn’t see anyone I wanted to dance with so I decided to go and get a drink at the bar. I found Bea and Olivia standing there.“How?” Olivia asked, taking a sip of her drink.I raised my brows.“Stop acting like that was nothing, girl.” Bea said, nudging me. “You danced with Mason Steele, the Mason Steele. How are you not going crazy?”“It was just a dance,” I said before telling the bartender what I wanted. “Okay, you my friend, are the expert in pretending. It was not just a dance, and we all know that. I knew there was a reason he kept asking you to perform for him. The man is smitten. Oh my goodness! You’re dating a billionaire.”“Shush, stop being dramatic, Liv. A man like him could never date me. Look at the woman he is with now. Beautiful, glamorous, rich. I can’t even compete.”Thinking a man like Mason Steele could be interested in me w
Warning: Mature content 16+As soon as we got to the bedroom, Dave and I stripped. When we were both naked, he took me in his arms and started kissing me. My body was burning with intense need and I couldn’t wait anymore. “I need you, baby.” I said softly, not being able to take it anymore.Dave smiled and gently pushed me to the bed. He stared at me, making me feel hotter and wetter. I liked when he looked at my body like it was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen. Dave positioned himself between my legs and his lips touched my most sensitive part, nearly sending me over the edge.He pushed my thighs aside while I kept trying to bring them closer. As Dave licked me in slow circles, I arched my core upwards wanting him to go faster which he did to my satisfaction. The butterflies in my stomach were sending off waves of electric current through my whole body. As much as I was enjoying what Dave was doing, I needed another part of his body to bury itself deep inside me. When I w
There was a lot of commotion as everyone ran out of the auditorium. The fire alarm was ringing loud in my ears as I scrambled to run towards the door which was filled with hundreds of people trying to get out all at once.“Where is Bea?” Maria suddenly asked.I looked around but didn’t see Bea anywhere. Smoke was increasing and filling the building. “Find her, April!” Jenny shrieked. My mouth widened but I ran back to the room backstage. Wading through the smoke, I couldn’t help but cough as it filled my lungs. I didn’t know where the fire started from but there was a smoke everywhere and people were screaming and running around.The room was full of costumes and other equipment. It was one big mess. Bea was bent over, digging through some of the costumes and throwing things around the room.“Bea! Let’s go!” I yelled. “Come on, everyone’s almost out.”Bea looked up for a brief second. “I’m looking for my bag. It has my 500 dollars!”“What? Who cares about money right now? Let’s go.”
Carolina.Lying back, I rolled my chair around, trying to forget what I’d just seen. The different newspapers on the table looked like they were mocking me. Those damned reporters. How could they insinuate that Mason would want that ordinary girl?I rubbed my palms together, anger building up inside me. Suddenly, I couldn’t take it anymore. Reaching forward, I grabbed all the papers and started tearing them into pieces. “Dominic!” I yelled and my new assistant rushed into the room with a panicked look on his face. Good, he was afraid of me. If he knew what I’d done to the last one, he wouldn’t stay in this job for the huge sums of money I promise to pay him. “Have you been able to reach her?”He shook his head. “No, I can’t reach the number. Maybe the phone got destroyed at the auditorium yesterday. I’ll keep trying to find other ways of contacting her.”“Oh, you annoy me so much. All you do is try, but never get anything right. Get out of my office.”Standing up, I went and looked a
April.Maria and I were lounging on the balcony when Bea brought us some pineapples she’d just finished slicing. She placed the plate of pineapple slices on a wooden stool before sitting on a woollen one. All of us were trying to be positive but reality was not making it easy. Our spirits were low and we hoped to get a good gig that would deliver us from the new pit we’d fallen into. The fire had destroyed a lot of our things, taking us behind. I had just reached over to pick up a piece of pineapple when I heard banging coming from the front door. We glanced at each other before standing up at the same time. Our neighbourhood was not exactly a safety net. When you heard something like that, you could only expect bad things. “Who could that be?” Maria asked, frowning.“I have no idea,” I stood up and walked into the kitchen before proceeding to the living room. “Who’s there?”“It’s Anton.”“Shit!” Maria, who had appeared next to me said. Anton was the apartment manager of the buildi
Mason. As the meeting proceeded, I found myself tapping on the table with my pen. Suddenly, my colleague Peter nudged me. I realised what I’d been doing and stopped. Apparently, it had got louder and everyone had turned to stare at me. “I’m sorry, ladies and gentlemen. Please proceed.” They all turned back to Jack Miller who was explaining something about the new AI we were training. I knew everything about it so didn’t have to pay attention. The meeting was mainly for the benefit of our partners who didn’t know much about the project. I was feeling restless, my gut telling me that something was wrong. Everything in my life seemed perfect and I hadn’t missed any call so I was left feeling confused. To make it worse, the presentation was boring. It made me think of many other things that could be more interesting for example April Hartfield’s performances. That thought train brought April to my mind. I pictured her Beautiful face and body. I felt tingles when I fantasied about runn
