I lifted my frame from the chair but then I stopped at the door. This was to give Jackson a little bit of a thrill, I bent down and let that black leather skirt ride up just a little bit to show a peek of my ass cheeks. I had a lot to offer the right man and a little cushion for the pushing was my claim to fame.
My brothers were always constantly fielding boyfriends and trying to keep them from getting their hands down my pants. It took a lot of ingenuity to even lose my virginity at the age of eighteen in college. Thankfully, I went away and was able to finally find out what all the fuss was about. After that, I couldn’t keep my legs closed, but it was like I was trying to find the perfect fit in a world of irregular sizes.
I stepped out from the office, hearing a sigh coming from behind me and smiling to know that I was giving Jackson a reason to go home early and give his wife a good old fashioned nooner. She wouldn’t even see him coming; he would take her breath away and grab her, using the image of my ass to fuel the fire.
“I don’t even have to ask. You have that man wrapped around your little finger. Anything that you want, you get, but it’s only because you know what you’re doing. Anyway, I have my own stories and I don’t need yours. I always come up with a great angle.” Joshua was my biggest competition in this paper. He had a knack for playing to his strength of being a man’s kind of man. He had the gift of conversation, but that was not something that I was worried about. I used the tools of female persuasion and a sweet smile and disposition to break through their defenses.
“I think you know by now that I would never give up a story that I pitched to somebody else. That is just not who I am. It’s not the way that I was raised. I know that this is the white whale and that everybody has been trying to find a way to crack this story. He pretty much keeps his personal life to himself – it’s been ten years and nobody has been able to come even close to getting the real story behind the man. It’s going to be my determination that’s going to finally make him understand that there is no running away.”
I walked away and I knew that Joshua was undressing me with his eyes. I had to admit that he wouldn’t have to imagine too much. There was one Christmas party that we had gotten together. It was mostly due to an indulgence in liquor and trying to drown my sorrows with meaningless sex to get my mind off the fact that I wasn’t going to be able to get home for Christmas. I had a story and the only way that I was going to get it was to ambush my subject at his home on Christmas Eve in Vermont. That was thousands of miles away from where I lived.
My father had been visibly upset, but he perked up when he found out that I was meeting with one of his idols, Joe Montana. I promised him an autographed photograph and I was a woman of my word. It was an early Christmas and birthday present all rolled into one. I even presented it to him on January first at the start of the New Year to see him smile for the last time. He died that night. My mother was still grieving after six months, but at least she had my brothers living in the same city to console her in her hour of need.
“You’ve always been a ball buster, Vivian.” Joshua was only calling me that. It was my pseudonym when I first started in this business. He liked to make light of the fact that I wasn’t comfortable enough to put my own name on my work. That soon vanished and now he was just using it to remind me of where I came from. “You have done some amazing things. I’m not one to pat you on the back.” He had stopped me with my hand on the door leading to the stairs going down to my black Porsche. It wasn’t like I was living high on the hog. I liked the occasional good bottle of wine, but it was seeing that car and feeling its power underneath my ass that made me sign on the dotted line.
“Just because we slept together, doesn’t make you an expert on who I am.” Joshua was a good lay, but he was a distraction and nothing more. I never dipped my ink in the company well. With him, I’d gone against my own cardinal rule and it was never going to happen again.
Chapter two
“You better not be fucking with me, Thomas. You know how I get cross when people try to fool me into thinking something that isn’t true. If you are on the level, then you can expect a pretty hefty paycheck coming your way. If not, then our business together is over. I mean it…fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice shame on me.”
Thomas was good for a few laughs over a few drinks. He was a very sought after rehabilitation expert in sports medicine. His name was very hush hush and he liked it like that way. He never wanted the notoriety or the press to follow him around like puppy dogs on a leash.
“I didn’t fool you the last time. I thought that he was really going to be there, but then he changed his mind. This is different. Xavier has expressed interest in seeing me personally while he’s in town. I’m going to meet him at the locker room of the New York Giants. Nobody else will be there and after I’m done you can sneak in and do what you need to do. I promise that I’m on the level. I would never think to try to make you look like a fool. Trust me, he will be there. He’s been having problems with his knee and wants to make sure that it’s not anything serious. His own doctors are giving him the green light, but he’s uncertain that they are doing it for him and not because the team needs him.”
It sounded plausible and my idea of getting him alone in his room might not be the right course of action. “I’m taking your word on this. I’ll show up after two PM. That should give you plenty of time to vacate the premises.”
I hung up and I felt like my blood was pumping. It was the thrill of the story getting into my veins. I was still dressed in my black skirt. That was a weapon that I never left home without. That little piece of fabric had gotten me out of many a parking ticket. Not to mention convinced some security guards to look the other way. It was only once that I had to agree to let a White man go down on me. That security guard really was good with his tongue, but I really didn’t find him to be anything special. He was, after all, just a means to an end.
“You have my word that he will be there. Whether you get the story is entirely up to you. There’s nothing that I can do to help you with that. I could sing your praises while working on his knee, but I think that would be like pouring gasoline on a fire. I’m not going to mention your name, because I really don’t want to lose him as a client. Referrals like that don’t come around often. I grab them up as fast as I can before somebody else does.”
It was nice that he was willing to try, but I could see the reason why he was backpedaling to get out of it.
I was talking on my headset, breezing through traffic and catching one light after the other at the yellow. You weren’t supposed to gun it to make it through the intersection, but there were no actual rules to say that it was against the law. I’m sure that a police officer would take exception and give me a fair warning.
I turned on the radio in time to hear the sports. “In sports, Xavier Peters is rumored to be in town. This reporter has found out that he has been considered by Pepsi and Coca-Cola as a spokesman at the same time. This is not confirmed, but it is believed that he is here to be wooed by both perspective companies. Stay tuned for further developments, as they become known.”
I had heard that this was a sojourn to get his name into endorsements. He had only done one commercial for a soap company, but now he was branching out. I was wondering if maybe it had something to do with his financial situation.
He was always pretty vocal about the fact that he didn’t want to go down the same road as some of his idols. For him to do this was going back on everything that he had said in a previous interview two years ago. Something had to have happened. Maybe he had a secret child, a mistress on the side, or it was even possible that he had dipped his toe into recreational drugs or gambling. These were the questions that I was going to make him answer with a few well-placed buttons that had come loose. I liked using my body to make men bend to my will. I found out early on that developing before others in my class made me a sought after commodity.
I really did pity my brothers, as they tried despe
rately to keep me from making the mistake of getting pregnant in school. They did a pretty good job of keeping me pure, until I was away at college. I did take their advice to heart and there was no loving without a glove. That wasn’t foolproof, but effective nonetheless.
I did not think that I was in any position to have a child. I could barely take care of myself and having a child would have hampered the good time that I had every night. I was selective on who I slept with, but mostly I found that white guys really didn’t do it for me. I gravitated to those of ebony and dark persuasion. It was nothing personal. I just found that the godlike qualities of men of color could bring me the ecstasy that I had never even known before. My first time was with a Black man and his obvious endowment was pretty damn easy to see from the moment that he unleashed the thing.
I had become somewhat of a size queen. I liked Black men that had a little extra than just the normal six or seven inches. My desire came in the range of eight to ten and there was no shortage of those guys that could measure up. I’d heard rumors of Xavier’s prowess in the bedroom. There were times at night underneath someone else that I would fantasize that he was the one doing those things to make me scream.
I know that those guys that did sleep with me probably felt that they were fortunate enough to find a woman that was that anxious and enthusiastic. What they didn’t understand was that they were only a substitute for the real thing. I had been trying for a very long time to make a connection with Xavier, but there was always that feeling deep down that I would be rejected.
I found myself outside the New York Giants stadium. Thankfully the security guard there knew me by reputation. I had a run in with him before and I was hoping that he remembered the last time. We didn’t do anything, but he did get a nice view of the goods.
Swinging my purse over my shoulder, I let that black handbag hang there beside me, while walking with a purpose towards the behemoth of a man. I had waited until I saw that Thomas had left the area and now it was time to strike while the iron was hot.
“There’s no way that I can allow you to go in there. I don’t care if you show me your tits or shake that ass in my face, Marianne. I’ve been given strict orders that the stadium and its locker room is off limits to anyone that is not authorized to be there.”
This was a small roadblock, not one that was insurmountable. I knew exactly how to play to my strengths. Undoing those few buttons had certainly made him lick his lips with anticipation.
“Henry, I’m sure that you can make an exception for little old me. You can’t say with a straight face that you didn’t enjoy what you saw the last time. What if I were to up the ante and give you a brief taste.” I think my intention was clear. I hadn’t had to go beyond these lengths. No security guard had gotten into those gates with anything that they held between their legs.
“What exactly do you have in mind? I’m risking my job and it better be worth it.” I stepped into the doorway, closing it behind us, so that we were alone in the hallway together. I undid the last few buttons, showing him my black bra and how it was overflowing with a mound of goodness. I reached behind and undid the clasp, letting the whole picture come into view. He gasped at seeing my oversized black melons. My silky caramel skin and the chunky nipples on top were making him speechless.
“I think that maybe you should take one of them into your mouth. Do you suppose that might be enough to make you look the other way?” I also had an idea about spreading my legs and letting him get his tongue into a slice of heaven. I didn’t know if I was going to have to take it that far, but I was willing. It was for the story of the century. If I landed this, I would be able to write my own ticket.
He grabbed for the hills that were alive and then he kept his head down, so that he was sticking out that tongue and lashing at my buds. I moaned, pressed my chest against his face, and buried him in a mountain of an avalanche. He slobbered all over them, using his teeth to bite on the tip and pull it away from my body. He let it go to snap back into place, before he did the exact same thing to the other one. I’d always loved a little bit of pain with my pleasure and when he gripped my ass from behind and squeezed both cheeks, I almost lost it. His hands were underneath my skirt, pulling apart those globes and touching my panties. He did not try to go any further than that. He knew that without permission, things could go very badly for him in a hurry.
“I didn’t say that you could touch anything but my breasts. Let’s say for argument’s sake that I allow you to eat out my little hole. I may even give you a hand job, but that’s as far as I go. You’re getting a lot more than I give most people. Usually, all I have to do is show a bit of skin, talk seductively and most of you guards always fall over yourselves to bend to my will.”
Had Henry been married and had children of his own, he would’ve most likely been happy with just seeing the goods. I knew that he was living fancy free. He would take liberties with those fans that wanted to get close to the stars.
“I think that you know by now that I’m not like any other guy.” I was reaching into his pants, undoing his belt and pulling out that button, until I was able to grasp the situation. He was already wet at the tip. I used that to start stroking him with an insistence that made his eyes go wide with surprise. “OH YEAH…use those fucking fingers to make me cum all over them.”
It appeared that all I would have to do was let my fingers do the walking. I was pretty good at this type of thing. Guys in my hometown had found out that I was pretty easy when it came to handling situations.
I may not have lost my virginity to any of them, but I’d certainly left them with a lasting impression and a smile on their face. I allowed them to finger fuck me a couple of times, but that was only for my own experimentation.
“Oh my God…STOP…I SAID STOP.” He may have been saying the words, but his cock had other ideas. It splashed fourth into his underwear and over my hand, making a very telltale mess that would have to be cleaned up in a hurry. This was part of the reason why I had done this in the first place. “You did that on purpose.”
He was holding his hands up against his privates, covering the stain and running down the hall towards the next available bathroom. “You better not be here when I get back.” It wasn’t something that I could promise. I suppose it depended on how long it was going to take him to freshen up and become presentable again.
I watched as he scurried away, practically falling over his own pants. He was doing everything he could to try to keep them in place, while trying to stop it from getting any worse. He did shoot a fair load and I would say that he hadn’t had the pleasure of female companionship, or the use of his hand, for at least a few days. I’d heard that he was working double shifts, as some of the other guards had come down with a case of blue flu. It was all a tactic to get more money with the union backing them all the way. I had to doff my cap to their ingenuity and their moxie for playing the same game that police officers use when they are negotiating a new contract. It was definitely working for me.
Chapter three
I whistled a happy tune, while swinging my handbag around in the air, as a sign of victory. I had covered back up, but his spit was still congealing on my nipples. It was a good thing that my bra was back in place, or that wet spot would’ve been drawing the attention of anyone that I passed. I found a nearby towel and I wiped the product of his overanxious ways off my fingers. There was no way that I was going to take that nasty mess anywhere near my mouth. I’m not saying that I haven’t indulged, but it was only with men that held my fancy.
Those times that I was alone watching Xavier in action on the field was when things got more interesting. I had some well-placed toys to use for a duplicate of the man. Sources had told me exactly what he was sporting between his legs. Girls liked to talk, and if I were to flash a little cash, there was no telling what kind of gossip I would overhear. It was said that he had over 8 inches and he could use what God had blessed him with. I wanted to find out for myself. I also had desi
gns on getting the story first.
I heard what sounded like a shower and I almost jumped up and down with enthusiasm at the very prospect that I might find him in the buff. I heard singing and his voice was good, but he had better not give up his day job. From the way that he was acting, I would say that Thomas had given him good news.
I pushed open the door to the locker room. This was not the first time that I had been in here with men in various states of undress. They were shocked at first but I showed them that I was just one of the boys. I had a way of talking their language and getting them to open up about anything. Nothing was off limits.
I think that my reputation preceded me. Any time that I went looking for interviews I found that I had to ambush them in a way that made them pretty much a captive audience. Xavier would be more like my prisoner without any clothes on. Vulnerable and exposed would be a good way to catch him: with his pants down in the most literal sense.
We were alone today. I went inside and I followed the sound of the water to the showers. I peeked my head around the corner and I saw his naked form in all its glory. The water running down his muscles made me slap my hand to my mouth with an audible gasp. I was going to say something, but the view was not one that I was going to see every day. I’d already seen him without his shirt on in the locker room after a game, but this was taking things to a whole different level.
I was begging him to turn around and willing him with my eyes to make it so. I placed my two hands on my breasts, squeezing and pinching at the nipples and making my pussy nice and juicy. My hole was asking for something that I wasn’t sure that I was going to be able to deliver. I was going to do my level best to get him in the sack.
