I was very tired but happy. I had just checked in to my favorite hotel in this city. I get here about six times a year, it's really grand and elegant, totally my style. I was particularly happy because when I checked in, the front desk attendant informed me that I had some kind of award gift waiting and would I wait for a moment. She went and fetched the manager who came out to greet me. She was a beautiful olive skinned Italian woman (I caught the nametag) and she welcomed and congratulated me on achieving some kind of points or awards status. She told me they would be sending up a gift to my room and that they were upgrading me to a suite for my ongoing loyalty. It all made me laugh a bit because all I could think of was getting into a hot tub and crawling into bed.
"Oh," she said, "One more thing, Ms. I," addressing me by name, "there's a letter for you, please," and she handed me a formal sealed envelope with my name hand written on the front."
"Thank you," I replied and made my way to my room.
As I drew the bath, I waited for it to fill, and I lay down on the sofa, looking at the sparkling bay and incredible view of the city beyond. I was naked under the thick white robe tied around my waist. I listened to the water run in the bathroom contemplating ordering up some room service and a bottle of wine. There was a knock on the door. Who the fuck? I hadn't ordered anything.
"Guest Services," a female voice gently announced. I was a bit startled and as I said, basically naked under the robe, but got up and went to the door, opening it. To my surprise, the manager who had come out to greet me was behind a formal c overflowing with all sorts of goodies.
"Good evening, Ms. I," she said, noticing my surprise and discomfort. These are for your loyalty with compliments of the house. May I bring them in?" she asked.
I responded, "Wow, how nice, yes, please," and pointed to an area in front of the couch. She rolled the cart over and began setting everything up. There was at the center a bottle of very good champagne in a bucket of ice, two glasses, assorted cheeses and chocolates, breads, other treats, it was very inviting.
"Ms. I," she said,
I interrupted her, "Please call me Carla."
"Very well, Carla, would you like some champagne? I can open it or leave it for you like this."
"Please, open it," I told her.
She began the ministrations. "I am Giovanna, the general manager of the property, I am so happy to be able to bring you this. We are very grateful for your ongoing business and this is just a small token of appreciation.
There was something about her that was regal, much more than being a hotel executive. Very beautiful in an evolved and elegant way. She wore an expensive well-cut suit and expensive jewelry that was obviously not provided by the hotel. Her skin was pure and she was extremely well put together. Well rounded and well-proportioned breasts, sexy legs, and an incredible accent. Definitely something there.
"Shall I pour a glass for you or would you rather wait," she asked?
Not having done this before, I didn't really know how to proceed. I actually wanted her to stay for awhile.
"I running the bath, I better stop it for a minute, what an incredible surprise," I said. "Will you excuse me a moment," I asked, going briefly to the bathroom to turn off the tub. "Would you have a glass with me, surely you're near the end of your shift," I asked with anticipation.
"That's very kind of you. I would love to. I actually don't work on shifts. My family owns this hotel and several others, I work here as general manager, and that means I can kind of do whatever I want to whenever I want to," she smirked. She poured two glasses, handing one to me. I air-toasted her and looked into her eyes, quite deep, dark and beautiful. All of a sudden I no longer wanted to be alone. I was just tired and horny and this gift dropped down on me. I dug deeper into the couch, my legs beneath me and my robe. The bubbles felt good going down, an immediate relaxation.
"Please join me, have a seat," I beckoned.
Giovanna, softening a bit, sitting down into the other corner of the sofa. We sipped in silence gazing at the beautiful view.
"Carla... Ms. I...," she began.
"Please, Carla."
"Very well, Carla, I have something rather awkward to discuss," she said, Did you open the letter I gave you earlier?
"No, not yet, what was it?" I asked with curiosity, thinking perhaps it was a gift certificate or another bonus treat.
"I'm afraid, well, it's a kind of bill for damages. I'm sorry," she replied in a very business-like tone, "Please open it, I'm sure you'll understand. Damages from over the past year."
Putting my glass down, I opened the envelope, extracting an invoice for $3000 in damages with a careful inventory of dates and items.
"Three thousand dollars," I cried, "for what?"
"Please read the bill. It seems you have soiled or permanently stained fine Egyptian cotton sheets, pillows, towels during each of your visits this year. These are not dirty laundry in the normal sense, but each time the item was no longer usable."
My face grew bright red and started burning. "What are you talking about? What do you mean?," I tried to deflect suspicions, knowing full well she knew what was going on.
"My head of housekeeping notifies me of excessive damage from abusive guests and the first time I ignored it. Then it happened again and I realized it was the same guest... you Carla, you come here often enough."
