Chapter 1
Oasis was a nightclub hidden down a shady looking graffiti tagged alley lit by the soft glow of neon lights. In the asymmetrical niches of the narrow street people mingled, some smoked, and others were entangled in passionate embraces. Lani gripped tighter on her best friend's hand, the anxiety of being in an unknown place made her feel uneasy.
"You trust me, don't you?" Stacy asked, Lani's discomfort like an anchor dragging against the seafloor. She slowed her confident strides to a halt as they approached a dark decent of stairs.
"Yeah Stace, I trust you." She took a steading breath, "I'm okay, let's go. I want to see this place you can't shut up about." Lani smiled and lead the way down the dark steps. Ahead, a line of people had already gathered by the brightly lit entryway of the nightclub. Beautiful men and women in scant clothing shuffled slowly into the source of the muffled thumping music. The space abuzz with the hum of light conversation and excitement. Lani admired the painted mural on the building's façade of a dessert landscape decorated with palms and tall obelisks that seemed to shrink the doorframe, making the people feel small.
"No line for us, follow me." Stacy snickered quietly and walked like royalty with her chin held high and chest out. Lani followed behind, feigning the same confidence with her best imitation. A tall bouncer stopped them at the red velvet rope, his muscles bulging in a tight black T-shirt.
"Hold on a sec, not so fast you two. Are you a member?" He looked at the two women expectantly, scrutinizing.
"Yes, I am. Here you go." Stacy replied and Lani saw his lips spread into a wicked smile as she pulled her VIP lanyard from between her breasts and flashed it towards the man to read. The bouncer licked his lips,
"I'll need to see some ID for your plus one." His gaze drifting over Lani, who pulled forth the document from her small clutch. He looked it over quickly and continued, "Everything appears to be in order, come on through ladies." He said more professionally as he unclipped the rope and gestured for them to enter.
The air within was clouded with a combination of hookah smoke, perfume, and sweat. Pulsing music vibrated through the space like a frantic heartbeat that reverberated through their chests. The warm glow of neon and graffiti welcomed them to venture deeper as Stacy led them directly to the bar, brushing past swaths of people moving from the dancefloor to plush seating areas and tables. The bar top was made of cool white stone and behind it an array of expensive looking spirits and cocktail garnishes that could cater to any taste.
"Good evening and welcome to Oasis." Said the freckled redhead behind the bar cleaning up from the last round of drinks.
"Hi, can we set up a tab? Cute top by the way" Stacy responded, bringing a smile to the bartenders' face. The top shimmered and became sheer with the slightest movement, showing off her floral tattoo sleeves and fit body.
"Thanks so much! Card and ID's please, I'd be happy to get that started for you." Stacy overtly admired the woman.
"Great! I fully authorize my friend here to order drinks and cut me off later." Stacy laughed and Lani smiled shyly before she handed over her ID. She stepped away to the POS for a moment then returned to ask,
"What can I get you started with tonight?" Stacy leaned against the bar top to be heard over the music that had increased in intensity; her breast almost spilling out of the top of her dress.
"Tequila Sunrise, it's busy tonight, so make it a double please."
"I'll have a Painkiller, thanks." Lani added, her senses already overstimulated. She felt awkward and out of place as her friend casually flirted.
"Take a seat, I'll have your drinks right out." The bartender hurried off, as more people approached and would need to be served next. The two women sat on the tall stools and took the moment to catch up.
"I'm so glad you decided to join me tonight, I've really missed you these past few months." Stacy grabbed Lani's hand, trying to comfort her friend and give her something to ground herself to.
"Yeah, sorry. I had that huge project at work and they pushed the deadline up on us. It was hell in the art department for a while." Lani felt a pang of guilt from the lack of free time and let out a long sigh.
"Was it that bitch Karen again?" Stacy questioned with a noticeable bite in her voice.
"Eh, I mean I don't know for sure. She can be malicious like that and I wouldn't put it past her to do it for the power trip. Whatever reason, I'm just glad it's finally over and I don't have to think about it anymore."
"You're right, we should be loosening up and having a good time." She scanned the large room full of people scattered about in small groups. Stacy's eyes lingered on the glistening muscles of a man grinding with a curvaceous woman on the main dancefloor, his fingers sinking into her bare hips as they danced together. They watched until the bartender returned with their drinks and set them down on napkin squares in front of them.
"Let me know if you need anything else ladies." She said before darting away to skillfully mix drinks together for other patrons. They sat at the bar and chatted; Lani sipped her drink while Stacy guzzled hers down. They were both feeling a nice buzz when Stacy got up.
"Come on, dance with me." She begged and began pulling Lani out of her seat. Lani was reluctant at first but yielded to the experience, trying to embrace the chaotic energy of the club that Stacy seemed to thrive on.
The song that thrummed through the surround speakers was slowly building with layers of sounds. Stacy danced close to Lani, her hands caressing her friend with carnal eroticism. Lani closed her eyes as she felt Stacy's hands travel along the silken dress that accentuated her curves. Her touch starved body reacting instantly to the delicate hands that squeezed her hips and slid up to her chest and neck. Stacy's hot breath tickled her ear with praise,
"You are such a good slut, I love it!" Stacy paused to suck on her earlobe and Lani moaned, the sound drowned out by the music. "A few guys are watching us right now and enjoying the show. Take your pick, I feel like sharing tonight." Lani shuddered at the offer and opened her eyes to scan the room.
It didn't take long for her to see the athletic streetwear-clad hunk with dark eyes and slicked-back black hair paying them more attention than the others. He had been a magnet on the dancefloor and was surrounded by a few gorgeous women, all vying for his attention. His metallic accessories glittered in the party lights as he danced with confident strides and competed with Stacy as they both caressed their respective dance partners sensually.
Stacy twirled Lani around playfully and they now faced a tall lean gentleman lounging in a trendy outfit combining vintage elements with contemporary twists. He sat surrounded by other fashionably dressed people and when Lani met his half-lidded gaze, he smiled and took a sip of his drink. He was effortlessly handsome, with an expensive looking haircut and a square clean-shaven jawline.
Meanwhile, the DJ mixed and blended tracks together that kept the beat from going stale. The dance floor was alive and moving as Lani contemplated a possible one-night stand partner. She was tempted by the hunk with his rippling abs on display but didn't want to get involved with the women already fighting over him. The relaxed mysterious man however seemed very interested, leaning forward now as he continued to watch them dance. Lani thought she saw him lick his lips as Stacy bent over and twerked against her.
Time seemed to hold still with anticipation as elements of the song faded out one by one. The crowd slowed, taking a collective breath before the inevitable drop. When it did drop, the dancefloor erupted with orgiastic gyrating and dry humping to the high tempo beat. When Stacy returned to an upright position, Lani pulled her close and planted hot kisses on her neck before finally answering,
"I like the one sitting at the table." She was flush and could hear the smile in Stacy's voice.
"Good choice, but he isn't sitting at the tables anymore." Stacy turned Lani again and she saw that the tall admirer was standing at the edge of the dancefloor now. "I'll invite him to dance." She said before gliding forth gracefully in his direction, beckoning him with her eyes and body. The lights strobed in a chromatic spray around her like magic as she danced before him and he stepped closer, accepting the offer. Stacy gripped onto one of his hands and led him back to Lani who was swaying to the beat alone.
The man had a pleasant smile, fair skin that was blemishless, and cool blue eyes that were even more striking up-close. Lani smiled and put her hand out for him to shake, but instead he lightly drew it to his lips in greeting. There was no hesitation in his movements as he began to dance with them, with a graceful step he led them both into a swirl. When they rested softly against his chest he spoke near their ears,
"I'm Theo, and who may my beautiful dance partners be?" His voice was deep and rumbling through his chest. He uncurled his arms to release them and moved fluidly to the beat in a surprisingly chaste way that was no less alluring. Stacy pressed herself against him,
"I'm Stacy and that's my friend Lani. You are more of a gentleman than I'm used to." She laughed as she danced against him sensuously.
"I like to know a ladies name first." He said, politely before gripping her hips and taking control. Lani felt like second fiddle as she watched them dance, admiring how effortlessly Stacy showed her desire. A small part of her wanted to return to the bar, but it was too late now; she'd look and feel like a fool if she quit now. As she stepped closer, Theo loosened his grip on Stacy and made room for her again.
"I'm Lani" She half yelled into his ear, as the music thumped loudly from the speakers all around the room. She wrapped her arm around his shoulder and mashed their bodies together, feeling his taught muscles underneath his clothes.
"Nice to meet you both." He replied and turned Lani so she was sandwiched with her back to him. She felt the hardened cock in his pants press against her ass as Stacy scissored their legs together and swayed to the music. Theo's hands caressed both their bodies as they teased themselves to the beat of the song.
When it ended Lani was hot and panting, she felt electrified, her panties were soaked, clit throbbing from their rubbing, and she ached for release. Lust clouded her mind as she was led off the dancefloor and brought to a nearby seat to catch her breath. Theo smiled, looking like he hadn't even broken a sweat as he sat beside the two women.
"I'm parched, would you guys like something to drink?" Stacy asked sweetly as Lani's heart slowed its heavy pounding.
"Yes, Gin Ricky please." Theo answered first.
