I
woke up earlier than usual and went for a run. It was Wednesday so my class
load was relatively light. Naomi didn’t say much to me but she was watching me
like I was a bomb she was expecting to explode. I took some extra time in the
afternoon to go find a dress. When I got home at five Naomi was already dressed
and ready to go.

“I
have to be there a little early. You know tonight isn’t really a date it is
just a review party. Basically Quinn holds them so clients can review the girls
he has to offer,” she said quietly.

I
nodded. “I will be ready at seven,” I said softly then went into my room.

I
heard the door open and close. She must have left. I showered and put makeup
on. I pinned my hair up letting a few tendrils fall free. I put the dress I
bought on and looked in the mirror. It was a red long sleeve dress that clung
to my body. The neck line was plunging but everything else was covered. There
were slits up the sides of my dress all the way up to my hips. I put my
necklace on and my six inch stilettos.

At
seven sharp the doorbell rang. I answered it and Edward smiled at me. “Ready
Miss Blake?”

I
smiled and nodded. “As ready as I will ever be,” I said and followed him to the
car.

He
drove downtown and pulled into the parking lot of an upscale hotel. I climbed
out and he gave the valet the key. He followed me inside. I made my way to one
of the event rooms like I was instructed.

When
I walked in the room quieted. I spotted Quinn and he had yet another brunette
on his arm. “Naomi said this was not a date just an event, is that true?” I
asked Edward as we walked further into the room.

He
nodded. “Yes mam.”

I
went to the bar determined to get a drink. The bartender set a drink in front
of me before I had time to say anything. I took a sip of the drink. It was
sweet and fruity just what I needed.

“Miss
Blake, rough day?” Quinn asked coming up to me and signaling the bartender to
get him a drink.

“No
more than usual,” I said quietly.

“You
look gorgeous as always the center of attention when you walk in,” he said
amused.

“Do
I have an actual date or am I just up for show this evening?” I asked looking
at him.

He
smiled and I knew he enjoyed annoying me. Before he could reply a younger guy
came up to us. “Hey Quinn, we have got to find a sexier way for the girls to
take mens shirts off,” he said slurring.

I
rolled my eyes and went back to my drink.

“Do
we Alan? Perhaps we should ask Miss Blake, she may have her own special way of
doing it,” Quinn said sounding amused.

I
looked at him then looked at Alan who was standing there with a stupid grin on
his face. I actually did have a way of doing it. My mother taught me. She
couldn’t teach me needed things she just taught me how to handle men. I had my
drink in one hand as I turned to face Alan. With my free hand I slid my finger
down the buttons of his shirt just right so they all popped open then I popped
his pants button and undid his zipper in one move. His pants fell around his
ankles and I leaned in. “Sexy enough,” I asked then walked off annoyed with
both of them.

As
I walked away I could hear Alan speak excitedly. “That was fucking awesome.”

“Ya
ya
pull your damn pants up,” Quinn growled.

I
smiled and walked to the balcony. I needed some air. I leaned against the
railing and sipped my drink. Quinn walked out and shut the doors behind him.
“Miss Blake I have one of the men here who wish to pay a great deal of money
for your services,” he said smoothly.

I
shook my head. “I’m not doing it,” I said firmly.

He
growled in annoyance. “You are so damn difficult,” he hissed. “The amount of
money you can make just in a matter of hours is ridiculous. How can you not be
drawn to this?”

“It
is not what I want!” I was tired of trying to explain to him. He wasn’t getting
it. He was so clouded by money it was infuriating.

“You
don’t want it, no you would rather give it away for free to boys in coffee
shops. What are you looking for love? Well let me be the first to tell you it
doesn’t exist, all you can do is survive on your own. You cannot depend on
anyone else to find you!” he snapped.

“I
am not depending on anyone else and I am not looking for love. I just want to
be able to look in the mirror and say I did the best I could without selling
out. You would rather sell out and say damn everything else. If that is what
helps you sleep at night then so be it, but leave me out of it!” I hissed and
went to walk away, but he blocked the doors.

“I
am paying you to be here tonight.” He almost sounded like he was threatening
me.

“Keep
it, I would rather not be near you then make money!” I snapped.

He
scoffed. “You’re a stupid girl, you flaunt yourself and make every man want you
then you walk away. Eventually you will run into someone who won’t let you walk
away so easily.”

“Is
that a threat Quinn?” I asked getting tired of him acting like he owned me. We were
standing so close to each other it looked like we were about to make out.

“A
warning Miss Blake, not all men have the control I do,” he whispered.

“Is
that so, and I am sure if the amount was enough you would give me to these men?”
I wanted to know if he cared at all. I was beginning to think he didn’t. Maybe
I was just imagining what I thought he felt for me.

“In
a heartbeat,” he whispered. His eyes betrayed nothing. He didn’t care. I was
money to him and that was all.

“Well
it’s a good thing I don’t give a fuck what you want,” I growled and walked
toward the door. I went to open it and he stopped me by leaning his weight on
the doors. The doors were curtained so no one could see us.

“I
am not done with you Athena,” he growled angrily.

“Well,
I’m done with you!” I snapped and attempted to pull the door open. He was
stronger than me and the door didn’t budge. “You can’t keep me here,” I growled
and shoved him.

He
caught my wrists and pinned me to the wall next to the door. “I can do whatever
I want Athena,” he growled pressing his body to me. The scent of his cologne
was overwhelming me. His grip on my wrists made my heart race in excitement. I
wanted him even though he was an asshole. I was going to have to thank my
mother for that. I pressed my mouth to his surprising him. He hesitated then
deepened the kiss. Our tongues tangled together and he pressed his hips into
me. I felt his cock hard and ready straining against his pants.

He
shoved my dress up and tore my delicate lace panties off. His hungry kisses
distracted me as he undid his own pants. Part of me wanted to stop him and the
other part didn’t care. I felt his hard cock against me. He pushed and I cried
out as he partially filled me. I felt my body give as he took my virginity. He
looked at me as he realized what happened. He looked angry and excited all that
the same time. He pulled back and pushed inside me again this time deeper. I
arched my back and dug my nails into his shoulders. The pressure was almost too
much to handle. My body was alive with sensations. It felt so good I could
barely handle it. He moved thrusting aggressively. I was worried about being
caught, but as soon as he began to move I didn’t care. I wrapped my legs around
him and enjoyed every second he was inside me. His mouth covered mine his
kisses were hungry and desperate. When the feeling got too intense I cried out
bucking against him. He groaned and I felt the heat of his release fill me. I
laid back panting and slightly stunned. My body was humming and I wasn’t sure
how I felt about what had happened. Everything happened so fast I didn’t have
time to think about it.

He
moved away from me watching me. “You should have told me,” he growled panting.

“Told
you what?” I asked softly. I was pretty sure I knew what he was talking about,
but I was going to make him say it.

“Don’t
bullshit me Athena, you were a virgin,” he snapped as he pulled his pants up.

“Ya
well now I’m not,” I said slowly as I adjusted my dress. Blood smeared my
thighs. I was glad my dress was red so it was hidden. I was unable to meet his
gaze, my body was humming; a feeling I wasn’t used to. I wasn’t sure how I
felt. I was a little shaky and I felt odd. I never planned on losing my
virginity to him, not like this anyway. It happened so fast and I was so
confused. “Can I leave?” I asked softly.

“Damn
it, yes, just go,” he said softly.

I
put my hand on the door knob, but hesitated. “If they are really willing to pay
as much as you say, make the deal. I will do it,” I said quietly then opened
the door and left him on the balcony.

I
walked through the room quickly. I needed to get out of the hotel. I felt a
little better once I was out of the crowd and in the elevator. It was taking
too long. I felt like I was going to cry, but I refused to cry in public. I let
him take my virginity. I knew he was no good and I still let him have me. I was
angry at myself for being so naïve. Once the elevator opened I walked into the
lobby then outside. I waved a taxi down and had him take me home.

 

Once
I got home I stripped and got in the shower. I felt like I couldn’t breathe. It
was like I had a weight on my chest. The shower made me feel a little bit
better. I climbed out and wrapped a towel around me. When I walked back out
into my bedroom Naomi was sitting on my bed.

“Hey,”
she said softly. I could tell by the look on her face that Quinn told her what
happened.

“Hey,”
I said quietly.

“Are
you ok?” she asked watching me like I was going to break down any minute.

“Ya,
I’m good. Why?” I asked softly.

She
sighed. “Quinn told me what happened on the balcony. I just wanted to make sure
you were ok with the whole thing.”

I
looked at her for a second then looked back at my drawer. “I’m fine. What
happened was mutual,” I said softly.

She
scoffed. “That doesn’t matter. Sometimes things happen in the heat of the
moment and once it’s over you wonder what the hell you were thinking.”

I
smiled. “That is true, but I am fine I promise.”

She
nodded. “He is willing to forget about you agreeing to sex with clients. He knows
you weren’t thinking straight.”

I
laughed. “I am fine with it. Being with him helped me realize sex is no big
deal. Sex can be fun and I can make a lot of money,” I said trying to act happy
as I selected some panties.

She
looked at me like she didn’t believe me. “Ok, but I told you not to mess with
Quinn. He is bad news and you will only get hurt.”

I
nodded. “Lesson learned, I promise.”

She
nodded and stood. “I’m here if you need me,” she said and left me to myself.

I
dressed in a nighty and shorts then walked out to get a glass of water. I was
planning on going to bed and forgetting everything that had happened tonight. I
cussed when someone knocked on the door. I knew Naomi was probably in her room
with her headphones on.

I
walked to the door and opened it. I was relieved to see it was Edward and not
Quinn. “You left this,” he said offering my jacket.

I
had completely forgotten about it. “Thanks, you want to come in?” I asked
stepping out of the way for him to enter. He stepped into the living room and I
closed the door. “Do you want a drink, I can make coffee or I have beer,” I
said as I set the jacket on the back of the couch and walked further into the
apartment.

“Beer
is fine,” he said softly. I walked to the fridge and retrieved a beer. I opened
it and handed it to him.

“You
didn’t have to come all this way to give me a jacket,” I said amused.

He
smiled and walked over to the couch. He sat down and looked up at me. “I
didn’t, I also came to check on you. I know what happened and I wanted to make
sure you were ok.”

I
walked over and sat next to him. “I’m fine, I am not as delicate as everyone
thinks I am,” I said softly. I liked Edward. He was cool and calm. I never
really saw him angry. He was good looking especially in a suit. His brown hair
was always perfectly styled and I could never tell what he was thinking.

“I
don’t think you are delicate, but you are still a person and Quinn forgets that
at times,” he said amused.

“Ya
well I was warned about him and I didn’t listen so I deserved what I got,” I
said softly.

“This
is a hard game to play Thea. You have to be willing to forget about your own
needs to please someone else. The money is good, but there is a price,” he said
watching me.

I
looked at him for a minute. I knew he was right. If I was going to do this I
either had to be all in or all out. “You didn’t come just to check on me did
you?” I suddenly realized what he wanted. He wanted what every other man in the
world wanted from me.

He
smiled and took another sip of his beer. “You caught me, the question is what
are you going to do with me now?” He looked at me and his brown eyes were
playful.

I
knew what I wanted to do with him. I hadn’t realized it until I thought about
what he wanted. I wasn’t opposed to being with him. “I think I will show you
where the bedroom is,” I said and smiled. He smiled back at me as I stood.
“Come on Edward, you can have what you want. I’m feeling charitable,” I said
amused.

He
set his beer aside and stood. He followed me to my bedroom. When I turned to
face him he was inches from me. He towered above me and there was something
very sexy about him. I ran my hands over his chest and he pressed his mouth to
mine. I pushed the door shut and he lifted me and pressed me to the door.

“Do
you have condoms?” I asked breathlessly hoping I wouldn’t have to borrow any
from Naomi. I didn’t want to explain why I was taking Edward to bed. I wasn’t
even sure I knew why.

“Mmm,
several,” he said amused as he carried me to the bed and laid me down. I could
feel his erection press into me and it excited me even more. I peeled his
jacket off and tossed it aside. He stood and undid his holsters and laid them
on the chair near the bed. I sat on the edge of the bed and looked up at him
through my lashes as I slowly unbuttoned his shirt. I pressed my mouth to his
exposed abdomen. His muscles were taught and he was an extremely tone man. My
body came to life as I gently kissed his heated skin. I unbuttoned his pants
and he tangled his fingers in my hair in anticipation. His cock sprang free and
I felt the excitement course through me. I grasped his cock wrapping my fingers
around him tightly; then I covered his cock with my mouth and he groaned in
appreciation. I moved slowly playing and teasing him. He would be the first man
I did this too so I took it slow and enjoyed it.

“Enough,”
he growled and pushed me back on the bed. I smiled up at him and his mouth
covered mine. He broke the kiss and peeled my shirt off. His mouth covered my
breast and I groaned in excitement as he rolled my nipple between his teeth. He
slid his hand down and cupped my pussy. Excitement rushed through me even
though he was on the outside of my shorts. He put pressure on my clit and drove
me crazy.

“Fuck
me,” I whispered frantically when I couldn’t take the feeling any longer.

“With
pleasure,” he whispered. He stripped my shorts off and tossed them aside. He
kicked his pants off then retrieved his coat. He pulled out several condoms and
tossed them on the night stand. He tore one open and quickly put it on. I
watched him anticipating how he would feel. He climbed over me and I pressed my
mouth to his and spread my legs for him. He cupped my ass and plunged inside me
startling me with his aggression. He moaned in appreciation as he kissed me
hungrily and moved against me. I felt my body relax and stretch to accommodate
him as he moved. I was slightly sore from earlier, but it was quickly
forgotten. I moved my hips meeting his aggressive thrusts. It felt so good it
was hard to handle. When the feelings became too intense I cried out, but my
cries only encouraged him.

He
pulled out of me and rolled me so I was on my belly. He climbed over me and
pushed inside me from behind. The angle was more intense. I gripped the bed
sheets and moaned in ecstasy. “Edward!” I cried and spurred him on. The head
board was banging against the wall as his thrusts became punishing. I was a
little worried Naomi would hear us, then again I didn’t really care. He was
thoroughly enjoying me and I was enjoying him. I stifled cries as an orgasm
crashed over me. It felt so good, it made me light headed. I pushed my hips up
meeting his thrusts.

“Damn
Thea, you feel so fucking good,” he growled. He thrusts a few more times
pushing me into the headboard. His cries filled the air and I felt the heat of
him release. He pulled out of me and removed the condom. He tied it off and
tossed it aside.

I
rolled back over and looked up at him. My face was burning and my body was
humming. He felt incredible. I was beginning to understand why Naomi enjoyed
sex. He reached over and retrieved another condom. He watched me and massaged
his cock until he was completely hard and ready again. He slid a new condom on
then pressed his mouth to mine. He trailed kisses down my neck and over my
breasts. He kissed my lower belly then buried his face between my thighs.

I
dug my fingers into the sheets as his tongue explored me. My body was reeling
with sensations. I was already so worked up he had me crying out in no time. He
licked and sucked making the pleasure spread over me tightening my nipples and
I closed my eyes and enjoyed it.

He
covered my mouth with his again and I could taste my release on his tongue. It
felt so good to know he was enjoying me. He pulled me up to a sitting position
then lifted me onto his lap so I was facing him. He pushed inside me filling me
completely. He smiled at me and kissed me this time more delicately. I rested
my hands on his shoulders and began to move slowly savoring the feel of him
inside me.

“You
are beautiful,” he whispered.

I
looked at him and smiled blushing slightly. “You don’t have to compliment me,”
I said softly kissing his chest.

“It’s
more of a statement of fact,” he said amused.

I
giggled as he pushed me backwards and began moving more aggressively. I met him
thrust for thrust. I cried out when I released. He groaned into my shoulder and
released with me. I relaxed under him and closed my eyes. He nuzzled my neck
and laid gently kisses down my clavicle. He didn’t speak which was a relief. I
didn’t want to analyze what had happened. I wanted to keep it simple. We had
great sex and that was it.
