Dirk Peterson gazed out of the restaurant window at the city bathing in the late summer sun. Some of the trees had already started to turn color, signifying that the warm weather would soon end. He felt that the last two months had passed quickly - mainly due to his involvement with Sadie Newman, who had made him happier than he had ever been before. He desperately wanted their relationship to continue; for she processed everything he could ever want in a partner. She was intelligent, stylish, kind, loving and beautiful. Dirk knew that he had fallen in love with her, so much so, that nothing else seemed to matter to him. He was so engrossed in his thoughts, that he didn't notice Sadie return from the washroom.
'Hello handsome,' she said, as she sat down. 'Were you daydreaming?'
'Only about you,' he replied, while looking lovingly at her. She looked beautiful with her flawless skin and long black hair. She was wearing a slinky green dress, which complemented her eyes. After paying the bill, Dirk hailed a cab and they returned to Sadie's apartment. While he relaxed on the couch, Sadie disappeared to her bedroom and returned minutes later wearing a white silk dressing gown.
'I thought I'd slip into something comfortable,' she said. Dirk gave an approving smile, as she sat beside him. 'Let me make you more comfortable,' she added, as she started unbuttoning his shirt. When she had undressed him down to his silk boxer shorts, she led him into her bedroom. Sadie removed her gown to reveal she was wearing a white silk bra and panties. She lay on the bed and gave him a tantalizing smile. 'Time to undress me, big boy.'
Dirk climbed astride her and felt a sense of achievement as he removed her bra for the first time. As he gazed at her breasts, he noticed they were smaller than he expected. He gently stroked her nipples, making them erect.
'Do you like them Dirk?' she asked softly.
'I love them,' he replied.
'Are you disappointed that they're too small?'
'Of course not,' he said, as he kissed each nipple. For several minutes they kissed, until Sadie reached down and started stroking his genitals through the soft fabric of his boxer shorts. Dirk felt himself becoming aroused and wanted her to remove his shorts and hold him. He desperately wanted to feel his manhood being released and caressed by the woman he loved. She continued to tease him without going any further, much to his silent frustration. Dirk reached down and started stroking her panties, causing Sadie to sigh. Dirk was ready to make love with her and didn't want to wait any longer. He felt her hand continuing stroking his shorts and he was becoming inpatient.
'Touch me please Sadie,' he whispered, as he attempted to remove her panties. Suddenly she let go and pulled away.
'I'm sorry Dirk,' she said. 'I'm not ready yet. Please hold me in your arms.' Dirk hid his frustration and he put his arms around her, as they fell asleep in an embrace.
The following day, Dirk sat at his desk at The Daily Chronicle and recalled the previous evening's events. It was the first time he and Sadie had slept together, but they had not made love. She had teased him but hadn't held his cock, and he hadn't touched her intimate regions. He had however, touched her petite but perfectly formed breasts, which he enjoyed. In the morning Sadie had apologised for not allowing him to go further, and he had told her that it was okay.
Later that day, when Dirk was working on a story about a congressman, he was joined by his colleague and close friend, Neal. Neal was a tall, black man who had been a promising basketball player in his youth, and now worked mainly as a reporter on local issues. After a while, Neal started laughing and Dirk asked him what he found amusing.
'A story I'm working on,' said Neal. 'There have recently been sightings of a naked man hanging around the red-light district. A few weeks ago two prostitutes claimed he was exposing himself to them. They said he was only wearing tall boots and a hard-on.' Neal continued to laugh as he typed at his keyboard.
Dirk knew that the man in question was Falcon -- his alter-ego. Three times in the last three months Falcon had ventured into the red-light district, attempting to catch a female villain called Domino. On each occasion, she had overpowered him and striped him, causing him to retreat defeated and naked. After their last encounter Dirk had decided to give up, for he knew he was beaten. He would let the police catch her, as it was their job. His crimefighting days were over. All he wanted to do was just be reporter Dirk Peterson and spend the rest of his life with Sadie Newman.
Later that afternoon, after Neal had left, Dirk finished his story and was about to leave the office when a courier arrived, holding a small envelope for him. When the courier left, Dirk opened it and found a piece of rolled-up paper. When he unrolled it, a domino tile dropped out onto his desk. Dirk stared at the domino tile and knew it meant only one thing. Slowly, he unrolled the paper and saw it contained a simple note, "Meet me at my lair tonight, 9.00 pm".
As Dirk sat in his apartment that evening, he considered his position. The fact that Domino had sent the message to his office, confirmed that she knew Falcon's true identity. He hadn't intended to return to her lair again, but knew he had no choice. Domino had forced his hand, and he was determined not to waste the opportunity to capture her.
Dirk took a wooden box from his wardrobe, which contained his only remaining costume. He undressed and pulled on his red leotard and tights which accentuated his muscular bulges. He then put on his black leather trunks, knee-high boots and gauntlets. He clipped his utility belt around his waist, and finally pulled his black hood over his head. Falcon had been resurrected and was once again ready for action.
When he arrived at the red-light district, he saw about twenty nightladies waiting outside Domino's lair. They were wearing heavy makeup and dressed in their usual attire of cheap skimpy dresses, fishnet tights and stilettos. They looked at him, but said nothing as he walked past them. At the entrance of the lair, he noticed a new hook above the door, and wondered why it was there. Using his device from his utility belt, Falcon once again unlocked Domino's door and entered her lair. He walked along the corridor to the room with the large table. There he found Domino wearing her familiar short black dress, long gloves and thighboots. Her mask once again disguised her face. He pointed his stungun at her.
'I've got you now,' he said. 'You're no match for a big shot like me.'
Domino walked through another door. 'Follow me, big shot.' Falcon followed her into another room, with a TV in one corner. The image on the screen showed Falcon suspended from the ceiling by his arms, with Domino standing next to him. He instantly recognised the scene as their first encounter and realised that Domino had secretly filmed it with a hidden camera. On the TV screen Domino had just peeled off his mask.
'Do you remember this Dirk?' she said. 'It was our first date. It seems such a long time ago.' Falcon raised his stungun to her head. 'I recommend you put that away. This recording is only a copy, as the original is on my computer at home. In two hours it will be released onto the internet and the whole world will see it.'
Falcon's stungun remained fixed on her head. 'I'm taking you to the police.'
