“Hmmm?” I stalled, trying to imagine when I might be able to see her again.
“Tell me when you will come back to see me.” She clung to me like a child.
And then I thought I understood. She had saved herself for me after all. There had been no other men. She had given herself to me alone, and she was counting on me to rescue her. Perhaps it was easier for her to rationalize selling her body if it was to only one man. That didn’t make her a whore. She could think of herself as my mistress. My lover. My girlfriend.
“When?” Yong repeated, tugging at my neck and pressing her pelvis against me.
I looked her in the eyes, and then kissed her forehead and hugged her. “I don’t know exactly right now. The next few days are going to be really busy for me. But I want to see you as soon as I can.” The truth. But not the whole truth.
She released her grip on my neck and placed her hands on my chest as if she were about to push me away. “OK.”
I knew she was upset. With no commitment from me, she would have no choice but to sell herself to other men. My heart wanted to tell her what she wanted to hear, but I just couldn’t do it.
She slipped from my arms as she knelt to pick up her towel. After rewrapping it around herself, she opened the door and, with a quick peck on my cheek, ushered me through it. “See you soon,” she said softly, closing the door behind me before I could turn and take a last look at her.
I went down the stairs and headed for the front door. The receptionist was sitting on a sofa, watching television. Her little dog was sleeping next to her. They seemed not to notice me. As I pushed open the front door, I had a vision of the receptionist leading another man up the stairs. I saw her introducing the man to Yong and then leaving them together in the dark room. Then I flashed on an image of Yong’s arms and legs wrapped around the man’s thrusting body. My stomach churned. If I didn’t rescue her, other men would have her in the days and weeks to come. And then, I never could have her again. She never would give herself to me again. Not the way she had.
I got into my car and just sat there, wishing that somehow I could do something. Down deep, I knew there was no way. But I just couldn’t let go of the feeling. If only I could find some way to take her away from here and keep her for myself.
I could just imagine what she would have me do. She would insist on seeing me every night until she had repaid the money she had borrowed. Then she would pressure me to “take care” of her. Get her out of there. Set her up in an apartment. Give her a little spending money.
And in a way, the idea appealed to me. A couple of hours of fervent sex with her a few times each week. A simple business arrangement. No strings attached. No fuss, no muss. What more could a man want?
But I knew it wouldn’t be that way for long. If I was lucky, she’d soon find someone else who could afford to give her more. But more likely, she’d start to pressure me to dump my girlfriend. To give her a ring. To make a commitment. To make a nest. And then there were her children.
Fortunately, and sadly, I knew it never could get to that point. Even if I wanted to do it, I couldn’t afford it. All things considered, it probably was good that my girlfriend was coming back tomorrow. There was no way I could see Yong again anytime soon.
I knew it was over. There was no rational reason for me to stay, yet I couldn’t leave. Sitting there in the car, I could hang on a bit longer to the illusion that it might again be possible sometime for me to smell her hair and feel her hot wetness. But once I left this place, she and the illusion would be gone. Forever gone.
I finally took a deep breath and started to put the key in the ignition. Just then, a pair of headlights came around the corner and up the street behind me. I leaned back against the seat and remained motionless as a dark sedan passed me and pulled to the curb outside the front door. Not wanting to draw attention to myself, I decided not to start my car until I knew what the other car was about. Was it the police? A customer? I watched to see what the other car would do. But the dark sedan just waited at the curb, its engine running.
After a few minutes, a woman came to the front door and looked out through the glass. She appeared to see the sedan, and opened the door. I was startled to see that it was Yong, looking groomed and proper once again. She walked directly to the waiting sedan, opened the passenger door, and slid into the front seat. The interior light showed the driver to be an Asian man. Yong gave him a quick kiss on the lips and turned toward the back seat. A small child popped up and reached for her. She hugged and kissed the child. Then the interior light went off as she pulled the door shut, and the car slipped away into the night.
The End
If you enjoyed this tale, please take a look at my bestselling Temporarily Mine Series, available from Amazon right now:
While Her Husband Watches (Temporarily Mine 1)
Ted wants me to have sex with Karen while he watches. After a first failed attempt, Karen and I get together without Ted, and the sparks fly. Then the three of us get together for an unforgettable night.
Under My Dominion (Temporarily Mine 2)
A few weeks ago, Karen fulfilled one of her husband’s fantasies by having sex with me while he watched. Now Ted has a new fantasy. He wants Karen to take on both of us in a double-penetration. Karen is willing to give it a try, but first she wants me to teach her how to do anal sex. I’m willing because, well, what man wouldn’t be? Besides, Karen and I have a thing going that neither of us wants to let go.
Quid Pro Quo – A Full-Swap Foursome (Temporarily Mine 3)
Mai is back in town. She accepts that I sometimes have sex with other women while she is away on one of her extended visits with her family in Southeast Asia. She says that it’s “her fault” because she’s not here to “take care” of me. But she figures that, when she’s in town, I shouldn’t be having sex with other women.
Normally, that’s fine. But while Mai was away this last time, I got involved with Ted and Karen. It started as a simple matter of fulfilling Ted’s fantasy of watching Karen have sex with another man. But one fantasy led to another, and Karen and I have developed real chemistry between us.
So, now that Mai is back, I’m supposed to let Karen go. But I don’t want to do that, and I know that Ted has a thing for Mai, so I decide that the only reasonable thing to do is to persuade Mai to join us in a full-swap foursome. Not only does she agree to have sex with Ted, but she astonishes us all by seducing Karen as well.
Her Bachelor Party Fantasy (Temporarily Mine 4)
Karen wants to tag along with me while I visit a few strip clubs to recruit some dancers for a bachelor party. She says she has always been curious about those places, but her husband refuses to take her. Karen’s desire to accompany me seems harmless enough, but I am hesitant to take her to the raunchy places where I’m likely to find the type of entertainers I need. So, I decide to initiate her by taking her to a relatively tame “gentlemen’s club” in Waikiki. When that goes well, I resolve to take the plunge and take Karen to where the real action is on Keeaumoku Street.
After meeting a couple of the strippers and watching them perform, Karen announces that she wants to be one of the entertainers at the bachelor party. I have my reservations, and I try to warn her about the kinds of things strippers are expected to do at bachelor parties. But she persists, and with the coaching of the other dancers, Karen steals the show.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
In an indirect way, I’m here as a writer of erotica because I’m a fan of the late Robert B. Parker. In particular, I admire his character development and dialog skills. As part of my effort to learn the craft of writing, I decided to read the many novels in his Spenser series, in chronological sequence, so that I could study how his skills evolved over the years.
I was searching Amazon.com for one of his novels, Now and Then, when I discovered John Locke’s similarly titled novel Now & Then. I thus was introduced to the zany world of Donovan Creed, and I came to learn of Mr. Locke’s impressive self-published e-book success. Shortly thereafter, I happened to read a magazine article about the self-published e-book success of Amanda Hocking. These two authors opened my eyes to the potential of self-publishing for the Kindle.
A bit later, I was perusing the Kindle bestseller list, following the rankings Mr. Locke’s books, when I stumbled on Selena Kitt’s Babysitting the Baumgartners, which became my introduction to the world of e-book erotica. And then, of course, I found E L James and her Fifty Shades of Grey, which took BSDM mainstream, much as Deep Throat took porn movies mainstream back in the early ‘70s.
About a decade ago, I wrote several stories based on some of my own erotic exploits. I wrote them more for the writing practice and concomitant stimulation than with the intention of publishing them. But after discovering the world of e-book erotica, I decided to dust them off and offer them for others to experience. Once I got started updating the few stories I had written years ago, I began adding to the collection.
Some of my stories are purely imaginary, and some were inspired by real-life experiences. I’ll leave it to the reader to try to discern which are which. As the saying goes, however, truth can be stranger than fiction. Where the stories were inspired by real experiences, I have changed names, places, and other details sufficiently to protect the privacy of others involved.
I moved to Hawaii as an adolescent and have lived here ever since. And that is why, even though location often isn’t particularly important for my stories, most of them take place here.
