Dedicated to my dear friends "Jane" and "Cock."
* * * * *
Jane first saw the silent man with the shaved head at her own engagement party at her fiancΓ©e's mansion, and Jane knew instinctively how much she wanted that man from the very moment she saw him. His piercing dark brown almost black eyes captured her attention immediately, although she had to admit that the rest of him would have kept anyone's eyes enthralled to his thin muscular body for a long time. Arthur Stoddard and Jane Betts had been standing in the midst of family, friends, well-wishers, co-workers and everyone else's significant others, while "dark eyes" seemed to skirt the edge of the room nodding an occasional brief exchange with some other person. Yet, whenever Jane glanced back toward him, his deep, dark eyes consistently returned her questioning look with an obviously covetous answer.
Time and again she tried unsuccessfully to break away from the little bridal clique from Arthur's father's office which had been clinging to Arthur and Jane as if the two of them were some sort of emotional lifejacket. Finally, on her fifth try, Jane broke away only to lose sight of him in the nooks, crannies, hallways and doorways of that great big house.
Damn. Why hadn't he introduced himself to the bride to be?
Jane hadn't been so sure that she wanted to get married, but everybody told her what a great catch Arthur was, and how lucky she would be to marry into all that Stoddard money. Besides, they told Jane, she couldn't pass up this opportunity.
"I feel like I'm applying for a job," Jane told one friend. "Maybe I should update my resume first."
"Don't be so critical," the friend replied. "You'll be great together."
Jane held back telling her friend that she'd already been a bit disappointed with Arthur in
that
capacity. Still he was charming, and most of her acquaintances felt that his money would more than make up for any inadequacies. Besides Arthur swore up and down that he loved Jane for better or for worse, if only she'd give him the chance to prove it.
"Have you seen that new guy circulating through the house," Jane asked Julianne, one of her bridesmaids elect. "Young guy, gray suit?"
"Which one? There's only a dozen of them. Oh, I'll bet you mean one of the college interns."
"No. This one's got a shaved head, brown eyes. Tall, handsome...," Jane paused for a second then finished. "...And dark."
"Oh that one," Julianne laughed. "I heard he's on some kind of loan from some Canadian company. Some kind of special training assignment or something of the sort."
"Oh really. Does he speak with that quaint little 'up north' accent?"
"I wouldn't know." Julianne shrugged. "He hasn't spoken a word to me."
This time Jane deliberately hunted the mysterious black man down. She found him waiting alone in the Stoddard mansion library. Quickly she closed the double doors behind them. "So here is where you've been hiding from me."
"Not hiding," the handsome black man corrected. "Just waiting for you."
Jane Betts introduced herself. The mahogany skinned man smiled. His teeth were surprising white and even. He held out his hand. "Cock Smith," he said softly.
Jane felt her head and shoulders start at that odd response. "What?"
He handed Jane a business card which read
David Wincock Smith
. "Cock Smith?" Now she got it. His next question totally floored her. "Jane, if I asked you point blank to come back to my hotel with me twenty minutes from now, would you do it?"
Biting on her lower lip for just a moment, Jane let her blue green eyes sink into the depths of his brown eyes, before she finally decided. "Yes," she answered.
"How long between this engagement party and your wedding?"
"Eight weeks."
"Have you gone to bed with Arthur?"
"That's rather personal, don't you think?"
"Knowing what you know about what we might be doing at my hotel, I'd say that we're way beyond worrying about being too personal, Jane." Cock Smith paused. "What did you two do about contraception? Birth control pill?"
"I...umm...we used a condom and spermicidal foam."
"Very effective," Cock replied. "Do you have any in your purse?" "No." "Good. Because when you meet me at my hotel, we won't be using any at all."
Jane felt the redness in her face begin to rise all the way to her forehead.
"If that blush creeps any higher, Jane, your golden hair is going to turn strawberry blond. Now I'm asking you again, with the full knowledge of what you're about to do, will you join me at my hotel?"
In the light of tomorrow's sun, there would be hundreds of pointed differences between Cock Smith and Jane Betts. But at the moment Jane knew their differences lay in the age old instinctive need for the induction of the male into the female. "Yes," Jane replied again. "In fact, I think I feel a headache coming on. I suspect I'll be leaving this...this affair in a few minutes."
"Very well." He stood up and walked toward the library door. "Be at the Hampton Inn by the interstate. I'll be in the north parking lot."
Taking the back stairs up to the second floor everything went quickly--even smoothly. Inside room 217, Jane turned her back on her partner in order to undress. She felt that this would insure less of a chance of her chickening out and bolting from his hotel room. When she turned back Jane discovered that his head wasn't the only thing which he'd shaved. Her eyes went wide as she looked over the dark man's brown black body. Cock Smith had a total absence of body hair, underarm hair and even pubic hair for that matter. All she could think of was, "Oh my lord!" The suddenly her mouth formed an unexpected word: "Yummy."
She noticed that when he took his first look at her body, David Wincock Smith broke into a huge admiring smile. "I see you're surprised."
She nodded her head. "Absolutely astounded."
"Good. I was counting on that." Cock held out his hand and reached toward her. But he deliberately waited until Jane decided to cross the room and come to him. She walked over to the light switch first. "No, leave it on, bride-to-be. I want to be able to watch you while I fuck you."
