“Is this what you wanted, baby?” I kissed the insides of her thighs softly.
“Yes, oh yes!” She moaned.
I leaned back down pulling her to my face. Normally I adored teasing women making them wait, but tonight with Veronica I found that I was the one who couldn’t wait. My cock ached and throbbed for her.
Veronica gripped the sheets as I pushed my fingers inside of her. Pumping them in and out I relished how tight she was. Her pussy was dripping wet as I rubbed her G spot with my finger. Her head thrashed from side to side as she began to come.
As she came, I brought my tongue to feel her quivering clit. She drenched my face with her arousal.
Pulling myself up, she wrapped her long legs around me. She grabbed my cock and guided me inside her. I nearly swooned with pleasure as I felt my cock sink deeply into her wet pussy. I began hammering her pussy in and out as she dug her fingernails into my back. Her tits bounced beneath my chest.
We climaxed together as I gave her one final thrust before filling her pussy.
Kissing her passionately, I gazed into her eyes. I saw all the love she still had for me and it warmed me through and through.
Maybe this time would be different.
The morning sun streamed through the window. I rolled over and to my delight saw Veronica curled up next to me. Her long honey blonde hair was spread out over the pillow soft as silk. The sunlight danced over her hair making her look like an angel. I leaned over to softly kiss her full red lips as I ran my hand lightly over her nude body. I’d ravished every curve, every bend of her body last night. Almost no trace was left of the spanking I’d administered. Just a slight red mark on her ass. My fingers traced the mark as I bent to kiss it. She moaned slightly in her sleep. I pulled the sheet back over her as I rose from the bed.
Dressing quickly, I called downstairs to order my customary morning after breakfast. I also requested Devon, my personal assistant, to bring in one perfect long stemmed red rose which is something I’d never done before.
Only for her.
I sat in my study with a fire flickering merrily in the fireplace. With my coffee in hand, I opened a book and began to read while waiting for Veronica to wake up.
A few hours later, a sleepy but sexy Veronica waltzed into the study. Her hair was still wild from our torrid escapades last night. Her eye makeup was slightly smudged giving her that irresistible ‘just fucked’ look. She was wearing one of my white dress shirts buttoned up halfway her long legs bare. I could see her perfect nipples fully erect through the thin fabric. She looked absolutely breathtaking. She carried a cup of coffee in her right hand.
“Ash, I think we need to talk.” She curled up in the chair across from me tucking her long legs beneath her.
I nodded placing my book down. I was going to find it difficult to concentrate with her bare pussy peeking out from underneath the shirt.
I took a sip of my coffee and set it aside.
“Ronnie, I have to tell you how beautiful you look right now.” I grinned at her.
“Thank you, but seriously, I want to talk business.”
I waved my hand at her.
“Not now. Let’s go enjoy some breakfast.”
I stood up to take her hand.
“Not yet. I have something I want to tell you.”
I took her hand and pulled her up. Now wasn’t the time. I wanted to pamper her this morning.
“After breakfast.” Knowing it was pointless to argue with me she followed me to the table.
Picking up the rose sitting atop her plate, she inhaled its’ scent.
“How perfect, Ash.” She whispered her eyes shining.
I stood behind her filling her plate with the things I knew she liked the most.
Sitting down, I filled my own plate. We finished eating in silence, exchanging glances across the table. After we retired to the study, to enjoy our coffee and the warmth of the fire.
“I’m selling you the shares. I want you to have Vitalife.”
I nearly spilled my hot coffee in my lap.
“What? Ronnie? Are you sure?” I’d expected I would get them sooner or later, but I had anticipated a long drawn out battle.
She nodded.
“You were right. My father will only destroy the company selling it off piece by piece. I want you to have it. The drug they’re making will help alleviate cancer victims’ pain. I can’t sit back and let something that could help people be destroyed. This is more than business to you so it is to me as well.”
For the first time in my life, I was speechless.
“Thank you, Veronica.”
Suddenly, a sick feeling began building in the pit of my stomach. Did she think because of last night we were back together?
“I can’t tell you how much I appreciate this. But what about your dad? You told me you absolutely couldn’t sell me those shares.”
“You were right, Ash. I told my father that Vitalife was a good investment. I did it because I knew you would be interested in them. I used something you cared about against you because I was still so angry with you for our breakup. It was wrong, Ash and I’m sorry.”
Amber and I had suspected that all along.
“I know. Thank you for telling me.”
She set her cup down on the table and leaned forward hugging her knees.
“After last night, I realized you’ve changed. You’re able to give me what I need now.”
I swallowed hard. This was going to be tough.
“I’m not sure what you’re getting at, but nothing’s really changed between us. Not yet.”
Her face went as white as my shirt. Slowly, she nodded.
“I know, but there’s a chance. That’s all I wanted. I know we’re not officially back together yet, but there’s a glimmer of hope for us. Despite what you’re saying, I felt it last night. You’re different.”
Was I different? Maybe she was right. I didn’t know and didn’t want to think about that right now.
“Maybe so. I’m not ruling anything out right now.”
Veronica walked over to me brushing a kiss across my forehead.
“I have to get to the office. Thanks for a great night. I’ll have Megan send over the papers once everything is ready. I won’t be seeing you for a bit as I have some other affairs to attend to. I hope that’s okay.”
I grabbed her and pressed my lips to hers.
“Thank you, I look forward to seeing you again.”
With that, she left the study to gather her things. I walked over to the window to watch her leave.
I’d gotten exactly what I wanted so why wasn’t I happy? This was one for a professional to figure out. I needed to talk to Amber.

A
s soon as
I got into the office, Amber was already standing there with a sly grin on her gorgeous face. Her blonde hair was curled softly atop her shoulders. Her tight pencil skirt was belted at the waist emphasizing her perfect hourglass figure.
“Ash, you look particularly satisfied with yourself this morning. How was last night?” She followed me into the office.
I sat down at my desk and began shifting through papers.
Amber pulled a package from behind her back.
“Looking for this?”
Quickly, I opened the envelope which I knew contained the papers from Veronica.
“So how did you get her to do it?” Amber sat across from me swinging her high heel from her foot.
“How do you know what was in that envelope? Do you have x-ray vision too?”
She shook her head smiling.
“No. I just know you is all.”
I sighed glancing over the papers and tossing them down. The day was overcast making my office unusually dark.
Staring at me intently, Amber leaned forward in her chair. Her breasts strained against the fabric of her light pink blouse. She narrowed her eyes.
“You didn’t tell her you loved her, did you?”
�
�No, nothing like that. I did as you advised I opened up to her about my past. She seemed to respond to that. We spent the night together.” I replied skimming over the most intimate details.
“So after a hot night she just gives in and sells you the shares?” Amber asked with skepticism.
“Seems that way.”
Amber detected doubt in my voice.
“You think there’s something more to it?”
I shrugged picking a piece of lint from my jacket.
“Well, she talked this morning about me being a changed man and that’s why she was selling the shares back to me.”
“Do you think she thinks you’re in love with her now?”
I rubbed the back of my neck.
“Maybe. Then she said she knew we weren’t back together but that at least it was a possibility. I never said it was.”
Amber rubbed her hands together.
“Ah, I see. So you’re afraid she’s giving you these shares in exchange for a commitment from you.”
“Pretty much.”
“And you’re not ready for that.”
“No.” I shook my head vigorously.
At least I didn’t think so.
“And you’re concerned that by sharing your personal struggles with her and then sleeping with her you may have given her false hope?”
“You got it.” Amber was so damned smart.
“Now you want me to tell you what you should do.”
I looked at her gratefully.
“Would you, please, Amber?”
She shook her head.
“No, Ash, I won’t. I never told you to sleep with her. I told you to explain why you felt like you did years ago. That’s it. I don’t know exactly what happened between you two last night, but I do know that by opening up emotionally to a woman then sleeping with her she may misinterpret your actions as having more meaning than they do.”
I was lost.
“What?”
“Look, all I know is that women attach a lot of importance to disclosure of emotions by men. We know you all hate to do it so when you do, we realize it’s an important moment. She may have gotten the impression that by being intimate emotionally then physically you were telling her that you may be able to love her now.”
“Amber, I understand that, but what do I do about it?”
“I’m not sure. I think you need to figure that out for yourself. You know her I don’t. All I know is I don’t feel comfortable discussing this further. If you’ll excuse me, I’ll go attend to my real job.” With that, Amber walked back to her desk leaving me with my mouth open.
I shouldn’t have put Amber in that position in the first place, but I was frustrated as hell with both her and Veronica. Since when did sex equal a relationship? I’d been with many, many women and had never promised them a thing. Generally, it had never really been a problem. Granted, Veronica and I had been in a relationship ten years ago, but I never told Veronica I wanted to be with her like that again.
Then again, I never said I didn’t.
Maybe that was it.
I shook my head to clear it. I didn’t have time to worry about emotional turmoil right now, I needed to get these papers to Jeremy.
With the envelope from Veronica in my hand, I walked into Jeremy’s office. He was bent over in a crazy position with his ass in the air.
Yoga.
“Jeremy, what the hell?”
This wasn’t the first time I’d caught him doing yoga in his office. As usual, he looked absurd. What made it even more ridiculous was that he did it while wearing his suit and tie.
“Oh, hi, Ash. I’m doing my morning yoga. Give me a few.”
I sighed deeply slapping the envelope on his desk.
“Jeremy, your yoga can wait.”
He continued to hold his position.
“No, it can’t. I’m almost finished. Whatever you’ve got there can wait.” He insisted. Then he began humming an “Om” sound.
Oh my God.
“Jeremy, I’m going to count to three then kick you right in the ass if you don’t stop now. I’ve got big news.”
“OMMMMMMMM-OMMMMM,” he hummed.
“I’m serious, Jeremy.”
“Can’t hear you. Busy now.” With that, he resumed humming.
“One, two…”
“OMMMMMM-OMMMM.”
“Three. You asked for it, Jeremy.” I gave him a swift kick in the ass sending him flying face first into the carpet.
“Ash! What the fuck?” He flew up from the floor his face bright red with anger.
“What the hell was so important it couldn’t wait?”
“This.”
I grabbed the envelope and shoved it in his face.
Angrily, he ripped open the envelope. His chest was heaving with rage, but his eyes lit up as he read the words.
“Ash, oh my God! You did it!” His rage quickly evaporated as he beamed at me.
“How?”
I shrugged.
“Can’t give all my secrets away, but it’s done. Veronica had her father released the shares this morning. I’ve already bought them. Vitalife is ours for the taking.”
“My father is going to be so thrilled to hear this. You just made us millions!”
“Eight hundred million, to be exact.” I couldn’t stop smiling. Vitalife was more than an acquisition to me. I was anxious to get them back on schedule producing the drug that could help alleviate cancer victims’ pain.
“Yes, yes, yes!” Jeremy spun around squealing like a little girl clapping his hands together.
“One more thing.”
He was already reaching for his phone to call his father.
“What, Ash?”
“Be sure that Vitalife gets back into production on that drug ASAP. There’s a lot of people who need it. Do whatever it takes.”
Jeremy nodded and began dialing.
I pressed the hang up button.
“I mean it, Jeremy. Otherwise all this work was for nothing. That’s why I did this. Not just for the money.”
“Your father. I get it. Of course, Ash.”
“What about Grayson? I told him he was out. You need to have our attorneys look over the contracts.”
“Already done. I had our attorneys find a loophole in the contract. They’re out. We are now the sole owners of Vitalife.”
“Good.”
“And by the way, Ash, thank you.” Jeremy smiled at me in a rare gesture of gratitude.
I waved my hand at him.
“When you get to the top, don’t forget who made you.” I answered back with one of our favorite phrases.
“Yeah, yeah. Close the door on your way out.”
I couldn’t stop smiling the rest of the day. I told Amber to take the rest of the day off and I cancelled my afternoon meetings.
Racing to the airport, I caught an evening flight to Vegas. Deciding to mix business with pleasure. I wanted to check out the strip club I owed while celebrating my latest conquest.
The Diamond Cabaret sat on Las Vegas’s famous strip. Some of the most beautiful dancers in the world worked at my club. The level of attractiveness of the dancers at the Diamond Cabaret was said to be so high it was advised to would-be recruits “Don’t even bother auditioning the Diamond unless you’ve been in Playboy, Penthouse or Maxim.”
The stretch limo I’d commissioned pulled up to the VIP entrance. Celebrities were regular customers here and the paparazzi was always lurking about trying to capture one on camera. Being the owner, I was somewhat of a celebrity myself, but I tried to maintain a low profile from the media.
Walking inside, I was greeted by several beautiful dancers all in various stages of undress. It was Friday night and the club was packed with a variety of patrons. My two favorite dancers, Kayla and Kyrie greeted me. They were incredibly gorgeous, with amazing figures and had both worked for me for the past five years. They were actresses and had obtained bit parts in big Hollywood movies. Their careers were taking off,
but they still found time to dance, particularly when they knew I was coming to Vegas.
“Well, hello there Mr. Blackthorne. It’s been so long since we’ve seen you.” Kayla clad in a rhinestone studded bra and G string threw her arms around me. I could feel her big tits pressed against me. Her long light brown hair fanned out as I spun her around. I ran my hand over her tight toned abs then around to her firm ass smacking it.
“You look gorgeous, Kayla. How have things been for you? I saw you in that movie last month. Terrific job. I’m sure you’ll be getting starring roles soon enough.”
She laughed as Kyrie jiggled over to join us. Her breasts bouncing out of her tight red satin push up bra, Kyrie was a vision of heaven. Her honey colored hair was long and silky hanging to brush the tops of her breasts. Her legs were long and went on forever. She was tanned and toned looking as beautiful as always.
“What about me, Mr. Blackthorne? Or have you forgotten that hot night we spent in the penthouse suite at the Mandarin?” Kyrie’s full luscious lips turned down in a pout.
I pulled her into my arms feeling her tight body pressed against mine.
“You’re getting more handsome every time I see you, Mr. B. Feels like you’ve been working out more.” She ran her hands over my dress shirt then to my cock.
“Things are definitely looking up.” I grinned as her hand stroked me through my pants.
“Ladies, why don’t you find a few friends and join me upstairs? I told Hal to get the hot tub running for us.”
“Ohhhh...the VIP one? The last time we used that was when Leo came to town!”
I laughed.
Leo .
“Ah, Kayla, after the movie you’re on a first name basis with him? See I told you that bit part would get you noticed.”
She laughed and shook her head holding her big tits in her hands.
“I think it was my DD’s that got him to notice!”
“They are incredible. Can’t blame the guy for great taste.” I reached out and squeezed her firm breasts.
I left the girls to find a few friends as I checked out the rest of the club. It was doing extremely well financially and had been an excellent investment. Most people think that all strip club owners are sleazy, low class guys trying to exploit all the dancers, but with me that’s not the case. I had only enjoyed the company of a few of the dancers and I was one of the few club owners who offered healthcare and paid time off for the dancers. I wanted the girls to feel appreciated and definitely not exploited. When a few of the girls got too old to dance, I offered them lucrative office positions in one of my other companies. One of the women left the club to obtain her degree in business management and worked for me back in New York in a high level financial position.
