Sitting in the back of the Black Hackney Cab, I pull my ankle length coat tighter around my body as I watch London pass by in a daze of bright neon lights and exhaust fumes.
The traffic is surprisingly not to bad considering its 10pm on a Friday night, which only adds to nauseating feeling growing in my stomach, I don't want to be to early for him, I'm meant to be a pro after all.
The cab pulls up outside a swanky looking hotel, my heart misses a beat, maybe now would be a good time to call the whole thing off, all I have to do is tell the cab driver I've changed my mind and he'll take me home again, but my inquisitive side gets the better of me and I hand the driver a £20 note and step out of the cab.
For a moment I just stand on the curb edge, watching the cab pull away, watching as my last chance to pull out leaves me stranded outside this huge, expensive looking hotel. Taking a deep breath and pulling my coat around my body tighter still, I slowly turn around to face the hotel doors.
It takes me a few seconds to gain some composure, but eventually I head up towards the steps, the 7" heal black patent leather stilettos making sure that I'm by no means making a quiet and respectable entrance. People turn to look as I slowly climb the steps, the door man, his eyes never leaving the sight that is me, walking towards him, in which I hope is a very controlled and confident manner. A knowing smile playing on his full mouth as he holds open the door for me wishing me a very pleasant evening. If only he knew!
The Hotel lobby is a hive of activity, receptionists checking people in and out, ladies and gentleman in evening dress wondering towards the hotel restaurant, laughter and polite chit chat filling the air. I head towards the lifts that are opposite the reception. I know my way around this place like the back of my hand, I've been here countless times before with my husband. But tonight I wasn't meeting my husband, infact tonight I wasn't even there as myself. Tonight I'm the high class hore that my husband’s fantasies have always evolved around and he is to be my first high paying client!
In the lift, I check my reflection for the last time in the mirrored walls, touching up my blood red lipstick and quickly running a comb through my long raven black hair and sweeping it back over my shoulders. Letting my coat fall open, I check my choice of attire one more time, I want to make sure I look exactly how he explained it to me the other week. I run over the list in my mind again, checking everything off as I go.
Black Satin corset with blood red ribbon lacing it tightly around my hips making sure my cleavage is perfectly visible over the top of it. A slightly higher than knee high black skirt, with a slit in the side of it which reaches right up to the top of my leg. Sheer black stockings held up with a black satin suspender belt decorated with traces of blood red ribbon. The black satin thong that my husband had pointed out to me a few weeks earlier whilst wondering around the mall and of course, the 7" black patent leather stilettos which, I hoped, would be exactly what my husband was not expecting! Everything present and correct.
Tonight I was breaking all the rules, he thought I was being held up in a meeting down town, he thought we where going to stay just for the one night so we could enjoy a nice meal together and a bottle of wine without having to worry about trying to get a cab home on a Friday night in the center of London. But tonight, he thought wrong! For tonight I was pulling out all the stops. Tonight I was going to give him the birthday surprise of his life!
