#######Author's Note#######
If you're new to this, this is part of a series of assorted affairs involving Ketna and Xerxes. This piece is more of a narrative setup, and a humorous one at that.
#########################
The place was heavily guarded as she would have expected, so getting in as a guest meant she could not only get some personal information on her target but also case the security of the location should she need to break in of her own accord at a later time. After her and Xerxes were taken through security, they were lead down the hall to a large lounge where some of the guests had already arrived and were conversing.
Ketna glanced around the room. Most of the faces were familiar, those she had recognized from dealing in forms of organized crime that she had thrown a wrench into on occasion. There was always something fun about being right next to the person you had personally interfered with while they had no idea you were the one responsible. One of the women she recognized glanced over to Xerxes as they entered. Xerxes and her held eye contact for a brief moment, exchanged a wordless acknowledgment of one another, then went about their business. Judging by the way Xerxes' posture changed in that moment, she had the sense there was history there to be dug up.
"Well Xerxes, this is different." A man with augmented arms she had recognized as being deeply involved in sex trafficking networks strode up to the two of them. Not her target but just as deplorable. His gait as he made his way across the room gave the indication he was at least slightly intoxicated. "Normally your escorts are more," he gestured at her with the drink in his hand. "Sensual, than this."
"Yeah was in the mood for somethin' classy." Xerxes reached over and slapped her firmly on the ass.
Ketna took the smack right on, barely moving from the hit. But what it was the fingers that slipped between her legs and grazed against her lips through the fabric for just a moment that gave her pause.
The man continued to look her over, not too subtly glancing under her shirt, before looking Ketna over completely while taking another swig. "Not even a skirt." He muttered to himself, then paused when he caught a look at her shoes, swallowing quickly to make a statement.
"Oh those aren't heels, you're just fuckin' tall."
"Congratulations, you have functioning visual comprehension." Ketna responded cooly.
"Aaahh I see now." The man pulled back pointing at Xerxes, then tapped the side of his head and grinned. "Spicy. You havin' fun putting her in her place, Man?" He started walking backward toward his chair, still facing them and pointing as he called out.
Xerxes grinned and the hand on Ketna's ass gripped tighter. "Y'Damn right" Again the finger returned between her legs digging in between between the lips through the fabric pressing up till he found the right spot, all while pulling her close to lean his head in next to hers. "An' I'm just gettin' started."
Ketna sucked in air between her teeth while she braced an arm against Xerxes' side, not to keep him away though it might look like that to anyone else, but to keep herself from losing her balance. The gesture, the aggression, while hitting the right point of contact nearly made her cave.
"You get me in on that, yeah?" He sat down in his chair and thumbed to the woman that had been kneeling at the side of his chair. "I mean I like my girlsΓ realΓ obedient but sometimes you just gotta have one put up a fight every now and again."
"Ain't nothin better than breakin' a bitch." Xerxes concurred.
"Here here!" The man responded drunkenly boisterous then re-filled his tequila.
All the while, Ketna smiled to herself, knowing damn well that the both of them knew, neither was 'breaking' any time soon.
The hand at her rear lifted away and pulled her in at her waist, guiding Ketna across the room. Xerxes found a chair in the room, sitting down in it, he pulled Ketna onto his lap. As they settled, a server that had clearly been awaiting Xerxes' arrival placed a serving plate on the small table at the side of the chair. On it was a bottle of top shelf whiskey and 2 glasses with a set of whiskey stones each in them. They then poured the two glasses and went about their business. Xerxes picked up one, passing it to Ketna, before claiming the other for himself. Ketna didn't care for Alcohol, but it's not like she could get drunk on one glass, or even the whole bottle, so she put up with sipping at the liquid to play the part.
The man continued to study Ketna across the way, looking her over while he downed the remnants of his glass.
