JAMESTON HALL
PROLOGUE
Anthony's childhood and early adolescence had been difficult, both emotionally and physically. He was the youngest of three siblings, the two older being girls. His grandfather and father were partners in owning three nationally franchised stores. The family was elated when Tony arrived, as the expectation was that he would inherit these lucrative businesses, and, expand the family's franchise holdings.
Simply stated, Tony was a pretty boy. He had those jaw dropping facial features that made passersby look twice when he was on outings with his mom. Over his dad's objections, Tony's mom enrolled him in child modeling classes. Successful photos shoots then became an integral part of his childhood.
His older sisters tolerated their younger brother, until Tony's "borrowing" his sisters' clothing items got seriously annoying. Despite being yelled at and tattled on by his sisters, plus a stern lecture from his dad, sneaking into his sisters' bedroom continued. He would pilfer clothing items, particularly blouses and skirts, and try them on in the privacy of his upstairs bedroom. Tony instinctively knew he was wrong, but just couldn't help himself.
When hormonal changes began to rock his adolescent body, he tried like hell to suppress his effeminate mannerisms, and earnestly studied -- and tried to emulate the "jock behavior" he was witnessing in high school. That created even more conflict in his young life, and his prom night date with a favorite female friend turned into a real disaster! He hated close dancing and kissing her. He hated it. He hated himself.
Tony was sent out of state for his first year of college. It was a large, public state university with a hugely diversified student body. That is when he discovered other men similar to him, but Tony did not trust the "gay" scene. Just before reaching his twentieth birthday, Tony went into full mental crises and dropped out of college. That probably shoved his dad over the edge, causing that poor soul to have a heart attack.
Now Tony was really on his own, cut off from family and, of course, funding. He worked a number of menial jobs, but knew this wasn't the life that he wanted for himself. So, Tony made amends with his family and went back for his bachelor's degree. After college, his job provided him with sufficient money to begin his outward transformation from man to woman. Tony began with hormonal injections and straight on faced his deepest desire for transgender transformation. He wanted the outward appearance of being a woman, but to retain his male genitalia. Pricey breast augmentation surgery followed.
Over time, Tony evolved into Antonia, called "Nina" for short. Coincidentally, she moved to the same city as where "The Club" was located. Now Nina was drop dead gorgeous, with a figure to die for, perfect make up and coiffed "to the nines" as the saying goes. Nina dressed in a sexy, impeccable style all her own. Eight-to-five jobs were far, far behind her, as her reputation as a she-male on the porn scene widened.
That was Nina's income source -- and she became a really high dollar earner, catering only to wealthy male clientele. Nina had heard rumors regarding "The Club" and its membership, including their fabulous country estate, but had never quite made the connections for an introduction into this realm of high society. That was all about to change, as the Procuress of the Menu initiated a contact through Nina's manager.

Since his retirement from that Fortune 500 company, Bizz Man has been investing his portfolio into a sizeable fortune. Now, passing his 75-year-old mark, he's thinking about the future, and, of course, his most unfulfilled bucket list of prurient desires. His wife continues to "do her own thing." With kids and grands pretty much out of the house, Bizz Man has the luxury of time to entertain himself in randy reveries. Even in his 70's, burgeoning lust is consuming him!
He and his long-time Money Man are the only two people that really track his financial profile in excruciating detail. So, Bizz Man now places a call to Anil.
"Anil, this is Bizz Man. I'm wondering what you would say if I wanted to purchase a special country property away from city life-- say, as a getaway for the family, and hopefully, a place that will be passed down through my family? I don't know if I can make it happen, but sure would like to try!"
Anil was silent for what seemed like the longest moments in phone call history. He cleared his throat and then addressed Bizz Man. "Are you freakin' serious?"
"Dead serious" was Bizz Man's answer.
"This will be a couple of mil out of your portfolio. Are you OK with that? I don't think it will much affect your monthly income streams, but it certainly needs checking out" was Anil's comeback.
"Anil, let's do it" and Bizz Man ended this call before Money Man could even respond.
Gawd! A sense of arousal that he hadn't felt in quite some time washed over Bizz Man. He was going after that property next to The Club's country estate. That was his fantasy. His libido was suddenly awakened and he was craving sex -- all kinds of erotic S-E-X --maybe even to try something entirely new to him! He hankered after the possibility of owning that special place for fulfilling some of his more exotic dreams.

Bizz Man was obsessed. He took action and engaged a savvy real estate broker to approach the estate's current owner. At this point, my cousin didn't care about the repairs certainly required on this four-bedroom cottage and its six-car garage with the above living quarters. He coveted Jameston Hall. In fact, when sipping drinks from the club's country estate veranda, even the four bad boys had favorably remarked on several occasions about that cottage's idyllic setting.
Was it meant to be? Maybe.
It took some finessing, but, over the course of several months of negotiating with the present owner, it was a DONE DEAL! At last, Bizz Man owned Jameston Hall. He couldn't wait to break the news to his cousin over drinks and dinner. In the back of his mind, he was also planning on how he would announce this property acquisition to his wife and family. But, that was later. That just wasn't important right now. It was Bizz Man's secret acquisition. He would engage a property manager and, thus, become the hands-off, absentee owner.
