Selling the Dream

Two weeks raced by for Kevin and Danni like they were standing still. Hundreds of bids came in from many men and, to Danni's delight, quite a few women. With the bids came comments from the prospective dates; some singing the praises of Danni Dangerous' beauty, some professing their love for the bombshell redhead, and most with statements of what they'd like to do with/to Danni if they won the date contest. Kevin and Danni looked at all of them and began to narrow down the field.

The contest came to an end three days before the date was to happen. The rules specified that it was the winner's responsibility to arrange travel to Dangerous Danni's hometown for the date and secure hotel accommodations. Kevin and Danni sifted through the entries and whittled the field down to three men who not only had bid high but also were approved by Danni Dangerous herself.

"OK," Kevin said, "which one is it going to be, Danni? This one looks good. He's only thirty-eight and he bid a lot for you."

"He's not bad," Danni admitted but he wasn't her first choice. "I think the decision is down to these two." She held up the printouts of the two remaining candidates. Kevin gave a hard look at them and frowned slightly. Neither bid was as much as the one he had recommended at first, but the others were nothing to sneeze at either. Kevin took the sheets of paper from his wife and looked them over.

"So," he said after looking them over once more, "have you made your decision?"

"Yeah," Danni said with a little smile. She took the two printouts back from her husband then held one up for him to see. "This one." She turned the sheet around so she could read it aloud. "Darren Washington of Syracuse, New York. Not too far from us and he's good looking too. Worthy of a date with the one and only Danni Dangerous." She waved her arms about her with an air of regality as her husband looked over the sheet again.

"Have you ever..." he started then stopped. He wasn't sure how to continue the thought that was in his head without sounding like a jerk.

"Have I ever what?" Danni asked, begging Kevin to complete his stalled question.

"Have you ever... dated a black guy?" Kevin blurted out. He waited for his wife's ire. Neither he nor his wife had ever had any qualms about a person's race or ethnicity. They had both worked with and befriended people of different cultures and there was never any issue with differences. Danni gave Kevin a bit of a sideways glance before she spoke.

"Is that a problem for you?" she asked him, not exactly answering his question but posing one of her own.

"Not exactly," Kevin revealed. "I just didn't know if you were attracted to African American men. You'd never said anything about it."

"I like pickles on my ice cream too, but I've never told you that either," she joked. "And for the record, yes, I did date a black man. Years ago, before we met."

"Did you... you know?" Kevin tiptoed around his next question.

"No, it never went that far," Danni replied, reading her husband's mind. "He was a nice guy, but he got a job offer after college and moved out to Arizona."

"But would you have?" Kevin kept up his query. "You know, if he hadn't moved out west?"

"Probably," she said as she laughed. "Like I said, he was a nice guy. And he was really cute. But we only dated for a couple weeks before he left. Are you OK with this?"

"Of course," Kevin said in his most confident voice. "It's no big deal. It's not like you're going to sleep with him, right?"

"I don't know," Danni said as she looked at the sheet again. "He's

really

cute! Six foot-four, one hundred ninety-five pounds, single, and he owns his own company. How much do you think he'd pay to..."

"Nothing!" Kevin shouted, cutting his wife's thought off before she could finish. "That's not the business we're in, Danni. You're not for hire."

She laughed again, "I think someone is a little jealous. Don't worry, baby. No one can replace you. This is going to be fun. Everything is going to work out fine. You'll see."

"Of course it will," Kevin agreed, not exactly believing his own affirmation. "Let's get you ready for the big announcement. Meet you in the basement in ten minutes."

Danni stood to walk out of the living room to get ready, but Kevin stopped her with a last question, "Pickles on your ice cream?"

Danni said nothing, only smiled and nodded a few times, leaving Kevin to ponder his wife's odd tastes in desserts.

"On ice cream?!" he said to himself as he stood from the couch. "Blech!"

Danni Dangerous revealed the winning name that night on the FYEO page then contacted Darren Washington of Syracuse, New York. Danni chatted with Darren for over forty-five minutes laughing and flirting with her weekend date over the phone. By the end of the call, Danni was laughing with her new friend like they were old friends and made plans to meet him at the airport Saturday afternoon.

"How'd it go?" Kevin asked, coming up from the basement after putting the video equipment away for the night.

"Oh, fine," Danni answered. "Darren is so nice! And funny! He had me in laughing so hard I almost peed myself!"

"Great," Kevin replied flatly. "I'm glad you two hit it off."

"Oh, baby," Danni said as she took her husband's face in her hands. "Don't worry. No one could ever replace you. Not for a night. Not for a lifetime. I love you. Just you."

"I love you too," Kevin said and kissed Danni's lips. "And I'm sorry. I know this was my idea. I haven't been acting very good lately, have I?"

"Understandable," Danni responded. "You feel threatened by another man. I get it. You have nothing to worry about."

"I know," Kevin said. "And I'll be on my best behavior when he gets here Saturday."

"I told him we'd meet him at the airport," Danni disclosed. "You could bring the camera and get some pictures for the page of me meeting him."

"Sure thing," Kevin said, trying to sound more on board with everything. "Did you tell him you were married."

"Yes," she replied. "He's fine with it. He repeated a few times, 'No expectations.' He just wants to have dinner and talk. Get to know Danni Dangerous for more than a naked woman on the internet. It'll be fine. You'll see."

++++++++++

Danni and Kevin waited at the airport for Darren's plane to land. They weren't sure what flight he would be taking, and they saw no expected arrival from Syracuse or anywhere else in New York for that day. Danni was wondering if she was going to be stood up when an announcement came over the loudspeaker asking her to pick up the nearest white phone.

"This is Danielle Bartolli," she answered when the line connected. "Yes. OK. We'll be right there. Thank you."

"What was that all about?" Kevin asked as his wife hung up the receiver.

"We're supposed to go to the executive lounge." Danni told him. "When we get there, we're supposed to tell the person at the desk who we are then wait for more instructions."

Dann led Kevin by the hand to the designated spot and announced her arrival to the brunette woman at the desk in front of the lounge. The attendant excused herself for a moment then returned with two flutes of champagne and handed the glasses to the couple.

"What's this?" Kevin asked the young woman.

"Compliments of Mr. Washington," the attendant answered. "He sends his apologies that he's running late. If you'll please follow me, I'll take you to the waiting area. He should be arriving within the hour."

The dark-haired woman opened the door to the lounge and let Kevin and Danni in. They were the only two occupants of the lavish room that had large windows on the far wall that looked out over the runway. Kevin and Danni sipped their champagne in silence while they waited. Less than fifteen minutes later, an announcement came over the speaker sitting on the coffee table.

"Mr. and Mrs. Bartolli?" the voice of the attendant out front said. "Mr. Washington's flight is now arriving."

The couple looked out the window to the runway but only saw a private jet taxiing toward them. The aircraft stopped short of the jetway and rested a hundred yards from the windows of the lounge. Kevin and Danni looked at each other in disbelief.

"That's a Gulfstream III," Kevin announced, not taking his eyes off the tarmac. "What business did he say he was in?"

"He didn't say," Danni replied. "He just said he owned his own company."

"I'm thinking his bid should have been higher," Kevin said. "Those jets aren't cheap."

The door on the plane opened and Danni and Kevin saw Darren exit the plane. Tall and lean, he strode confidently across the runway and to the door that led to the lounge that the couple currently occupied. When he saw them through the glass, Darren waved and smiled at Danni and her husband then opened the door to the plush waiting area.

"Hey, guys!" Darren said as he entered the room. "Sorry I'm late. There was a problem with one of the engines, so it took a little while to sort everything out. Gotta be safe when you're flying, right?" He walked up to the couple and stuck out his hand. "You must be Kevin," he said as he grasped his hand and shook it. "Very nice to meet you, my man. And you must be the infamous Danni Dangerous," Darren said turning his attention to the beautiful redhead. He took her hand in his large paw and held it softly then gentlemanly kissed the back of her hand. "I'm so happy I got the opportunity to finally meet you."

"The pleasure's all ours, isn't that right, Kevin?" Danni said, her hand still encased in Darren's.

Kevin said nothing for a second until Danni nudged him gently. "Yes! It's a pleasure meeting you, Darren," he said to the taller man. Darren towered over Kevin by at least two heads.

"I trust you received the money for the winning bid?" Darren asked. "Business before pleasure, of course."

"Yes, everything came through just fine," Kevin responded. "Thank you for your generous bid."

"I think I should have bid more, now that I see the prize I won," Darren stated as he looked into Danni's eyes. "And now that the business is concluded, let's get down to some pleasure." Noticing Kevin's camera, Darren said, "Did you want to take some pictures of Danni and I meeting?"

Kevin shook his head slightly as he attempted to comprehend what the tall man was saying then it clicked. "Oh, yeah. Of course! Danni, why don't you go over by the door and act like you're opening it for Darren."

Kevin took several shots of Darren and Danni by the door, some of the two in an embrace, and one or two of them with their lips pressed together. When Kevin stated that he thought he had enough shots of the two, Darren put his arm around Danni's waist and led her toward the door to exit the lounge.

"I'll pick you up around seven at your place, if that works for you?" Darren asked the couple.

"That sounds great, Darren," Danni answered for both her and her husband, "I'm really looking forward to our date tonight."

Darren smiled then opened the door of the lounge for the couple. Kevin and Danni left the airport and traveled home. Danni spent the rest of the day getting ready in solitude. She wouldn't let Kevin see her until just before the appointed hour. At 6:55pm, Danni opened the door to the bedroom and came out into the front room. Kevin's jaw dropped open when he saw his wife. She was dressed in a short black crushed velvet dress that stopped precariously high up her thighs. On her feet were five-inch black stilettoes that accentuated her shapely legs and ass. Her red hair was in an updo and dangling from her ears were sparkling teardrop diamond earrings. She was a vision of beauty and sex appeal, and all Kevin could do was whistle.

"Damn, babe," Kevin said exasperated. That's... that's a hell of an outfit!" He looked his wife up and down several times to make sure it was her.

"You like?' she asked. "Gotta give him his money's worth, right?" As she strode across the room, the couple noticed a long car slowing down in front of their home. A man in a grey suit and hat exited the front driver's side door and came up the walkway. Kevin opened the door to greet the driver.

"Mr. and Mrs. Bartolli?" the chauffeur asked rhetorically. "I'm Andrew and I'll be driving you to the restaurant tonight. Mr. Washington sends his apologies that he couldn't meet you here, but he received an urgent business call just before we were to leave. He promises he will be at the restaurant to meet you."

Kevin and Danni exchanged pleasantries with the driver then loaded themselves into the limousine. Andrew drove the couple downtown to Rick's Shed, a high-class restaurant that Kevin and Danni could only dream of dining at due to the expensive dishes served and the long reservation list to get in.

Upon entering the restaurant, the Matre'd led them to a private area where Darren was waiting for them. Darren stood from the table when he saw the couple enter the secluded, candlelit room and greeted them: a handshake for Kevin and a kiss on the cheek for Danni.

"Welcome!" Darren said and motioned for them to join him. "Sorry I couldn't meet you at your place. Danni, you look amazing. Truly Dangerous!"

Darren asked the two to sit and order what they wanted. Danni sat next to Darren, but Kevin politely declined. "This is your date with her, Darren," Kevin stated. "I'm just here to take some more pics for the website."

"Of course," Darren replied. But please let me know if you want anything from the kitchen. I hear the food here is excellent."

Darren and Danni sat close to each other and dined a king's feast of exquisite food and several glasses of wine and champagne. Danni wasn't much of a drinker, and she felt a little tipsy and daring, placing her hand on Darren's leg several times as they chatted. Darren commented on Danni's earrings and held the back of her head as he got a closer look at them. Kevin took pictures of the two on their date focusing on their intimate touching and closeness.

When the dinner was finished, Danni excused herself to use the ladies' room and left Darren and Kevin alone.

"She's quite a lady, Kevin," Darren admitted. "You're a very lucky man. I'd give anything to find someone like her."

"What kind of business are you in, Darren?" Kevin asked the question he'd been dying to since he saw the private jet at the airport.

"Software," Darren disclosed. "It wasn't much until I hit on something that the bigwigs in the Silicon Valley wanted. I sold the company for a bundle then dabbled in some other things for a while. It's nice to be comfortable and not have to worry about finances."

"I'd like to get there someday myself," Kevin admitted. "Things haven't been great in that department lately. But we're getting back on our feet. I was wondering though. How did you know our real last name? And where we lived?"

"I don't go into a business deal with someone without doing a little research," Darren answered. "It wasn't difficult, if you know how to manipulate the system. And manipulating the system is what made me a wealthy man." He winked at his last statement then Danni returned.

"Everything OK?" Danni asked as she saw the two men standing by the table.

"Of course," Darren replied. "We were just getting to know each other. Shall we go?"

"Where are we going?" Danni wondered aloud.

To your place, if that's OK?" Darren said. "I'd love to see where Danni Dangerous works her magic."

"Sounds good to me," Danni stated and took Darren's arm in hers as they walked out. Kevin clicked a few more shots of the two walking out of the restaurant and getting into the limousine for their journey back to Danni Dangerous' lair.

When they arrived at the home, Kevin let Darren and Danni in the house then excused himself, leaving the new friends alone for the first time all night.

"Are you having a good time, Danni?" Darren asked as he moved closer to the beautiful redhead. She met him in the middle of the living room and looked up into his hazel eyes.

"It's the company that makes the good time, my dear," she said then stood on her tiptoes to kiss his lips. Darren bent down slightly to meet her and took her in his arms to return the kiss. Danni opened her mouth and allowed Darren's tongue to intertwine with her own. She felt his manhood on her stomach and noticed the twitch through his suit pants.

Kevin came back into the room and saw the two engaged in the hot and heavy makeout session. He said nothing, only began to take more pictures of the two as they reveled in each other. Danni was the first to notice Kevin had returned and quickly broke the liplock.

"Kevin!" she cried. "I'm so... I'm so sorry... I shouldn't have done that."

"I excused myself to go think for a few minutes," Kevin said, "and I concluded that you two should do whatever you want. And I'm OK with anything and everything you want to do tonight. Danni, sweetie, I can see it in your eyes. You want him. And I'm good with that. As long as I can get some shots for the page. What do you say, Darren?"

"I'd say that was fine with me," Darren replied, "but that wasn't part of the bid. So, I guess I'll have to make it worth your while. We'll agree on how much later."

"But Darren," Danni protested, "wouldn't that make me a..."

"It would make you a lot wealthier than you are now," Darren interjected. "And you're a lady. Don't worry about what anyone else may think. Kevin told me about your recent struggles, and I want to help, with or without anything in return."

Danni took Darren's hand and led him to the couch. The two sat down and continued their kissing session. Danni reached down and rubbed Darren's growing member through his pants. Danni felt him continue to grow and her eyes widened at how much it grew. Darren reached for Danni's back and worked her dress zipper down until the material was loose. Danni stood and let the dress fall to the floor. As Kevin suspected, she was wearing nothing underneath her little black dress.

Naked, Danni took Darren's hand and pulled him to his feet. "Let me show you where Danni Dangerous works her magic," she said softly. The two walked hand-in-hand through the dining room to the basement door and down the steps. Kevin followed and got a few shots of Danni's bare ass as she and Darren walked through the house. Entering the basement room where they filmed all her videos, Danni sat down on the edge of the bed and beckoned Darren to stand in front of her.

Neither spoke a word as Danni removed Darren's belt then unbuttoned his trousers. She worked the pants zipper down then tugged them to his ankles. She then put her fingers underneath the waistband of Darren's boxer briefs and began to work them down to meet his pants. She met with some resistance as she got them halfway down his hips then saw the reason for the delay: Darren's cock was at least ten inches long and hard as a rock, thick but not so wide that the average woman would have a problem fitting it anywhere.

She finally relieved Darren of his underwear then took the enormous ebony shaft in her hands. Stroking with both fists, she licked the head of his rod then sucked it between her lips. Kevin snapped shot after shot of Danni Dangerous slurping on Darren's monster dick then watched as she forced as much as she could into her mouth and down her throat. Kevin couldn't believe how much of Darren's cock Danni took and began to get the camera ready to shoot a video. "You two mind if I record this?" was all he said to them. Neither spoke but Darren nodded his agreement. Kevin set the camera on the tripod then pushed the red button to begin filming.
