Sunday afternoon, I went home and sat in a warm bath, Noni FaceTime'd me, "Hey you, how'd it go?"
She looked as if she was out walking. "It went well. I suppose. I don't plan on doing it again."
"What's the matter, was his stroke game not fire?"
I laughed, "it was straight. I just don't see what's the purpose. He's married."
She nodded, well his wife and I still hook up. It's fun. I know there's no attachment because she's married and her family doesn't know that she swings both ways.
My body shifted in the tub, "Are those tits I see?" She asked.
I moved the phone, "I'm in the tub."
"Thought you giving me a show." She joked with a huge smile. "Anyway, I'll see you tomorrow." I ended the call and stood; my body half covered in suds. I thought about Friday, Saturday, and Sunday morning, I went from being a virgin to being completely freaked out!!
Monday morning, I vowed to myself that I was not going to get sucked into the tangled web that presented itself to me. I sat at my desk, business, as usual, answering calls and processing paperwork, when I received an instant message from Ken asking me to go to his office. I stood up, adjusted my frames, and headed back to his office.
I tapped on the door lightly, I heard him say, "Enter." I walked in, he sat at his desk, watching me walk toward him. I stopped in front. There was a long rectangular box sitting in front of him, sitting on a stack of papers. He picked the box up with both hands and stood, "I have something." He reached it out towards me.
Slowly, I took the box, "You didn't have to do this."
He smiled, "I wanted to." He waited eagerly for me to open the box, so I did, and inside was a diamond necklace.
I looked into his eyes, "Wow, I can't--"
"Of course, you can." He replied and walked over to me, taking the necklace out of my hand and placing it on my neck.
"Thank you."
"It looks beautiful on you." He gave me that sexy side smile. My insides were putty. How was I going to have the strength to walk away from him? "I should get back to work," I said, trying to excuse myself before I did anything I'd regret.
He placed his hands on my hips, and held me in place, "Amy is out of town for the next several days."
My heart started beating so fast in my chest. "I was hoping that you would keep me company," he said.
"Won't your wife be upset?"
"We won't tell her." He smiled, "But seriously, she's okay with it. She knows I like you. She saw how I was with you." He waited for my response.
I smiled, "Okay." He leaned in and gave me the sweetest peck on my mouth.
When lunchtime arrived, I went to the breakroom to eat, Noni saw the necklace, she grinned, "Alright Sash, way to go. I only got a gift card to Red Lobster."
I felt a little weird. I touched the pendant, "You don't think I should give it back?"
"Fuck no! I'm pretty sure you earned it." She smiled devilishly. "Anything you get, keep." She ate from her container a piece of grilled chicken, she held her fork out to me, still chewing, but trying to speak, "Just...don't read too much into anything. Have fun."
I nodded. Fun. Is that what this was supposed to be, fun? My mind wandered to when Bill had visited the office earlier. I was never one to think that when a man simply looked at me, that he wanted something with me, but Bill's looks were something. Almost as if he was undressing me and eye fucking me. So I asked her, "Have they ever made you do anything with any of their friends?"
Her face became a little flushed, "They can't make you do anything. I did sleep with Bill. He was a monster in bed, not necessarily in a bad way, but he likes it rough. Are you thinking about it?"
I quickly shook my head. I had no intentions of sleeping with any of their friends. I had had more than enough with his wife looking on and inviting herself to my body. I only wanted Ken.
At home, after a nice shower, looking at myself in the mirror, I pulled my hair up in a bun, laid my edges. Did a light beat on my face. My skin was clear. It had a dark mocha hue with natural highlights that accentuated my high cheekbones. I just added a little eye color and mascara.
I had the cutest lace red bra and thong set. I remember Ken saying how much he loved the color red, one time we were all having lunch. I also donned a red wrap-around dress that tied in the front on my left side. I smiled. I looked cute. I put on my black heels, grabbed my purse, and left my apartment.
As I was on my way to my car, I was greeted by a familiar face. The way his eyes shined when he saw me all dolled up, "Wow, a hot date?" He asked.
I smiled, "Yeah, something like that." It was the guy I had met in the park. He wore a pair of slacks with a white chef's coat and a hat.
"He's a lucky man," he said as he checked me out in a sweet way, not all intrusive like Bill had done earlier.
So of course, my face was lit up like a Christmas tree on December 24th, which provoked his smile. "Thank you," I replied.
"Is it serious or can you um, have friends, you know other prospects?"
"I can have friends," I replied.
"Put my number in your phone," he said. I took my phone out of my purse and he gave me his number to me. "Alright, hit send, so I can lock you in...I don't answer calls from just anybody, only the special ones."
I smiled and hit send. His phone rang, "Sasha, right?"
I nodded, "Yes, Sasha."
"Well, I guess, I have to let you go. Have fun, but not too much fun."
I smiled. "I'll see what I can do" I replied and headed to my car. I got in my car feeling super excited and ultra-sexy. I had not felt that wonderful before. I went to spend time with Ken.
I had arrived at Ken's home. And I'm not going to lie, just anticipating seeing him already had my lower region throbbing. I got out of my car and strutted up to the door, he must have known I was there before I could ring the doorbell, the door swung open and he stood in a pair of dress slacks a polo style shirt, and held a glass of something bubbly in his hand.
I walked inside, he handed me a glass, "You look beautiful."
"Thank you."
He started walking, "Come with me, we'll head down. I had some food catered; I didn't know if you had eaten." I followed him and we went to the basement.
On the counter, there was shrimp, cheese and crackers, and sushi rolls. We fixed ourselves a plate and sat at the island. The way his eyes covered me, so sexy.
"Sasha, tell me something about yourself."
"Well, there isn't much to know. I was adopted as a baby. I lived in Charlotte with my adopted parents, until, I decided to finally attend college here, I'm into law-related TV shows, I love outdoors, and I'm addicted to chocolate."
He smiled, "So, your parents told you that you were adopted, or did you just figure it out?"
"It was sort of obvious. They're both White."
He nodded, "Yeah, that would give it away."
"I mean, you don't notice until other people make you aware. I mean, they were good about making sure that I loved who I was and teaching me to be a good person and to just respect all people. What about you?"
"I'm from here, born and raised. I've watched this city go from being a small industrial town to what it is now. It's incredible."
"So how did you and Amy meet?"
"You know, our parents hung in the same socialite circles. My dad suggested that we go out. At first, I was like, she's a little older than me, but Amy was and still is a beautiful woman. Her family is pretty powerful in this area. Having those connections was something my father felt would lead to success. Our marriage is one of convenience, but we do care for each other."
I nodded. He looked at my empty plate, "I can take that." He took the plate and went around to the dishwasher and set them inside. "More champagne?"
"Sure."
We sat and talked a little longer, he asked, "Have you ever thought about finding your birth parents?"
I nodded, a sadness that had lingered in my heart arose, "I did try for a while. It became exhausting and depressing. So, I abandoned it. I figured, if they wanted to meet me, they would have made finding them a little easier. I'm good with it though." The truth was, I wasn't; my heart still had so many questions.
Looking into his beautiful baby blues, I asked, "And have you ever thought about--" I had to catch myself.
His lips parted, revealing his nice teeth, "Have I ever what?"
I shrugged it off. He laughed, "Come on, you wanted to ask me something, ask?"
"Okay, have you ever thought about something other than this? You know a life with a woman that loves you, that only wanted to be with you, kids?"
I could see that deep lingering sadness in him, behind his soft smile as he sighed,
"Kids...well, Amy doesn't want any, she did say I could have someone have our child, like a surrogate, a woman that loves me, just me--" he stood up and reached for my hand. I stood up and looked up into his eyes, "Could you be that woman?" He smiled.
I smiled girlishly, "I mean if you weren't already taken. I could."
He kissed my forehead, then my mouth, I could still taste the champagne on his tongue.
He began to speak in a low sexy voice, "Do you like being with me?" His hands caressed me.
I nodded, "I do."
"Do you like when I taste you?"
"I do."
"Do you like when I do this?" His hand slipped under my dress, ran up my inner thigh, and found me already moist, "You do like it don't you." We chuckled.
"Every time I think about you, I get excited, I can't help it."
He looked into my eyes, "Really what do you like most?"
"I love how gentle you are with me, the way you kiss, and hold me, how you look into my eyes while were doing it, it's so, so intense, it makes me--"
"Climax harder."
