“Ah, you’ve read the first book in the series.” Amber commented as she noticed Devil She Became.
“I pulled an all nighter with that one. Very hot.”
“Those scenes between Reese and Ava! That’s exactly the type of thing you enjoy.” Amber laughed as she sat down across from me.
Quite heated from remembering the erotic scenes I’d read, my gaze lingered on Amber’s full breasts under her tight top.
“I guess you haven’t read Ava yet. The sequel.”
I shook my head.
“It’s even hotter. Ava’s the most evil and bewitching character I’ve ever read.”
“It’s a shame authors like Autumn Raynne, Ashlee Shades, Kat Crimson, Tori Dean, Bianca Schwarz, Callie Press, Reed James, Drew Sera, Nia Farrell, Patrick Khayler, Christina Gallo, Mystk Knight, Patient Lee, Grace Quillen, and July Cumming aren’t noticed on the bestseller lists.” Amber commented as she glanced at the titles on my table.
I templed my fingers beneath my chin.
“You’re right, Amber. I’m sick to death of the same old clap trap bullshit that the mainstream publishing houses throw at us. It’s a fucking joke. Indie authors-that’s where it’s at.”
Amber picked one up.
“Fragile was definitely hotter than Fifty Shades! I had to read that one alone if you know what I mean.” She winked at me blushing slightly.
My cock pressed hard against my pants. If any book was hot enough to make Amber touch herself, I was definitely going to read it!
“Fifty Shades! Don’t get me started. The book was well written, but a gross misrepresentation of a dom/sub relationship.”
“Oh, so you know about that kind of thing, Ash? I could see you as a dom.” She batted her eyes at me trancing her fingertips across her collarbone.
I had to close my eyes briefly and think of something else-anything else other than Amber’s fingers rubbing her soft skin dipping low into the top of her cleavage.
“Of course I do, Amber. Nevertheless, I can’t understand how these mainstream so-called ‘bestselling’ authors get so much attention. It’s ridiculous! Authors like these are amazing, undiscovered talent! They should be the ones on the bestseller list. They know how to write thrilling, erotic books.”
Amber nodded.
“I agree, Ash.”
I stood up and walked over to the window. I just found my next investment.
“Publishing is a multi-billion dollar industry, Amber. I’m going to take these indie authors and put them on the map. They’re writing books like no one else. Once the masses read their books, they’ll never give Tara Reese or R.L. Jameson another glance.”
“How will you do that, Ash?”
I smiled.
“Wouldn’t you agree that buying Vitalife made me the most successful investment banker in New York?”
“That was amazing, Ash. I would agree with you, but I always knew you could do it anyway.”
“So Jeremy and Harold should be willing to back me up with any deal I throw on the table. I want to buy S & G Publishing and eventually, Congo.”
Amber’s mouth fell open.
“They’re the biggest platform for indie authors in the world! That would cost billions of dollars, wouldn’t it?”
I nodded.
“That it would, Amber. But their founder and CEO, Jay Banks just took a massive financial hit. He’s vulnerable. I can get the money if Harold and Jeremy give me the green light.”
“What if they don’t?”
I shrugged.
“Then we might just have to start Blackthorne International after all.”
Amber’s face broke into a huge grin.
“I’m so ready for that, Ash.”
“And we can start by signing these authors. I’m thinking it would be a strategic marketing move to give them a name.”
“That’s a fantastic idea, Ash! They all write erotica, right?”
I shook my head. Excitement was coursing through my veins. This was going to be huge!
“Not exactly. These authors all write books with some erotic element to them, but I wouldn’t classify them as strictly erotica.”
“But would you say there is a ‘wicked’ quality to all of them?” Amber was sitting on the edge of her seat leaning over giving me an excellent view of her tits.
“Definitely.” I poured myself a glass of scotch swirling the liquor around in the glass.
“What about the Wicked Pen Writers?”
I snapped my fingers and pointed at her.
“That’s it! I love that, Amber. This is going to be gold, I’m telling you. Money in the bank.”
Amber grinned eyeing my glass.
“Scotch this early in the morning, Ash?”
“It’s just gonna be that kind of day, Amber.”
>>>>>>>>>>
Racing down the hall to Jeremy’s office, I had never felt better. I had a fantastic new project and I was going to have dinner with Veronica tonight. This was turning out to be a fabulous day.
That is until I told Jeremy about my proposal.
“Books, Ash? Are you serious?” He glared at me.
“Who the fuck reads books anymore? Don’t people just use apps to get their news?”
“Who said anything about the news, Jeremy? I’m talking about books—you know, books that people read for pleasure?”
Jeremy wrinkled his nose. As far as I knew, Jeremy hadn’t read anything since college other than the news and the Journal.
“Lots of people read, Jeremy. Book publishing is a multi-billion dollar a year industry!”
“What kind of books?” He sighed glancing at the documents I’d printed.
“Well, romance and thrillers are the hottest selling genres these days particularly those with an erotic element.”
“Like Fifty Shades? Ugh, that movie was awful. I mean the sex scenes! Give me something I can use!” Jeremy looked at me with disgust.
“Not Fifty Shades. I’m talking about indie authors. Undiscovered talent.”
Rolling his eyes, he stared at me. I glared back at him. I hadn’t anticipated such a struggle.
“By undiscovered you mean unpublished as in ‘couldn’t get published’?”
Rage began building inside me. How dare he question me?
“No, I don’t, Jeremy. There are many undiscovered self pubbed authors who are amazing. Just because you’re too fucking ignorant to read doesn’t mean that others don’t enjoy it. This is a multi-billion dollar industry!”
Jeremy sighed and leaned back in his chair.
“How so?”
“Ever hear the name Jay Banks? The owner of the biggest online retailer in the world? He makes a fortune off indie authors.”
Jeremy’s eyes widened.
“Really? Jay Banks? He owns Congo. They sell more than just books. They sell everything!”
“I know that. But take a look at these figures. Over two thirds of their revenue comes from books. I’m telling you the numbers don’t lie.”
Jeremy scanned the documents carefully.
“You want to buy Congo? Are you kidding? That would cost billions.”
I smirked at him. After all these years, Jeremy still underestimated me.
“Really, Jeremy, I think I know that. I want to start by buying S & G first.”
Jeremy’s mouth dropped open.
“S & G Publishing? They’re the biggest publisher in the world! How the hell do you expect to do that?”
“I just made this firm over $800 million dollars. I think you can back me on this one.”
“Ash, I don’t know what to say. I just don’t buy this. I don’t think my dad will either.” He shook his head.
I gritted my teeth. What an asshole. God, I wanted to smack the smarmy look off of his face. Jeremy wouldn’t know a good investment if it came up and sucked his cock. I’d had enough of his shit for the day. I was ready to finish my afternoon meetings and shift my focus to Veronica.
“Think about it, Je
remy. This is a great investment.” I left the documents on his desk and walked out of his office.
“We’ll see, Ash.”
>>>>>>>>>>>
Sitting at the best table in the restaurant, I waited for Veronica to arrive. My palms were actually sweating. I wiped them several times on the cloth napkin. I’d ordered us a bottle of the finest champagne, but was sipping my usual scotch until she arrived.
“Can I get you anything else, Mr. Blackthorne?” The gorgeous waitress smiled at me. I looked up as her cleavage was on my eye level. While I admired her beauty, she didn’t interest me.
All I could think of was Veronica.
“I’m good right now, thank you. Just waiting for my date to arrive.”
“Lucky lady.” The waitress winked at me as she walked away.
I glanced at my phone. It was 7:10. Veronica was never late. I started to worry about her when suddenly I caught a glimpse of her gleaming blonde hair as she walked into the restaurant.
Her dress was crimson red and fit her perfectly. Her deep cleavage was accentuated as well as her tiny waist. Her hair laid softly curled upon her shoulders and her ruby and diamond earrings glittered in the light.
I stood up as she approached the table. I pulled her chair out for her.
“Hello, beautiful.” I pressed my lips to hers.
“How was your weekend?” Veronica sat down across from me her eyes sparkling.
“It was good. Vegas is Vegas. So what had you all hot and bothered that you had to text me in the middle of the night?”
She paused a moment as the waitress uncorked the champagne and poured us two glasses.
“You, of course. Couldn’t stop thinking about you.”
“Of course.” I finished my champagne quickly.
“Seriously, Ash, I was thinking about what you said to me. I know it took a lot for you to open up like that. Even if you say you don’t love me now….maybe the feelings will come later.”
I reached across the table to clasp her hand.
“I’m so glad you feel that way, Ronnie. To be honest, after you texted on Friday, I couldn’t stop thinking about you either.”
Downing the rest of her champagne, she gazed at me thoughtfully. The clank of silverware from the other diners surrounded us, but I couldn’t hear anything but her voice.
“So where does that leave us?”
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Two hours later, Veronica and I burst through my apartment door shoving the books and papers on my dining room table to the floor. I couldn’t get enough of her! I buried my face in her perfumed silky hair as I yanked her dress off. Her long earrings tickled my face as I kissed her all around her neck and down to her cleavage. Reaching behind her back, I popped the clasp on her black lace bra. Her tits popped into my face as I found her erect nipples and began sucking on them.
Veronica moaned and squirmed in my arms. Her hands gripped my back her long nails digging in deep. I slid my hand up her thighs feeling how wet she was between her legs. I wrapped her legs around my waist and carried her off to my dungeon.
Throwing open the door, I put her down as I quickly whipped off my shirt tossing them to the floor. Veronica tugged down her panties and stood there in her red high heels waiting for my next move.
Grabbing her hand, I pulled her over to the St. Andrew’s cross.
“Ronnie, are you ready?”
She shivered with excitement.
“Of course. I trust you, Ash.”
I took her wrists and bound them with the leather cuffs above her head. Then I moved her ankles to be bound as well. She stood there in all her beautiful nude glory awaiting my touch.
I knelt before her to run my hands over her magnificent body. I trailed my tongue up her long legs. As I gazed up at her, I met her eyes. She looked at me with a dreamy expression. Her entire body was trembling.
“What’s wrong, baby?” I asked her.
“I just want you so much.” She whispered.
The salty vanilla taste of her flesh burned deliciously on my tongue. She was so soft so sweet. When I came to the apex of her legs, I tasted her dripping wet trembling all over awaiting my touch.
Her clit nearly vibrated as I flicked my tongue against it. Her juices bathed my face. My cock was so hard I could hardly stand it. Sliding my tongue between her soft folds, I lapped at her core. She squirmed all over moaning loudly. I ran my hands up the length of her legs to her ass gripping it in my hands as I pulled her closer to my face.
Suddenly, she began jerking hard moaning and squealing as I felt her pussy contract against my tongue. Just before she came I withdrew my tongue quickly.
“Ash!” Hearing her scream my name in frustration excited me even more.
“Not yet, baby.” I whispered as I left her side. My fingers curled around a leather riding crop and blindfold.
Strolling back over to her, my cock was so hard it stood straight up. Her eyes widened with fear as she noticed the items in my hand.
“Ash?” She questioned as I began to undo her restraints.
“Trust me, Ronnie. Can you do that?”
She nodded slowly.
“Face the wall.” I commanded. As she did so, I tied the black silk blindfold around her eyes.
“Hands up against the wall. Spread your legs.”
Veronica spread her arms out against the wall and stood with her legs apart. Still nude wearing nothing but her red stiletto heels with her firm tight ass perked up in the air her long blonde hair spilling down her back, she looked incredible.
She was mine to do with whatever I wanted.
To set the mood, I dimmed the lights even lower. I changed the music to something with a heavy industrial sound. Nine Inch Nails was perfect for what I was about to do.
There was a reason I named this room, “Blackthorne’s Dungeon”.
I traced the end of the leather crop slowly up her body starting from her ankles to her long legs. She shivered as the leather slapper tickled her. I ran it lightly over her ass. With one finger, I lightly brushed her pussy testing to see how wet she was.
She was soaking wet as I withdrew my drenched finger. I inhaled her scent before tasting her. Veronica had the sweetest little pussy I’d ever tasted. Staring between her legs, I could see how swollen her clit was how much she wanted me. How she longed to come.
And come she would.
But only when I said it was time.
I stood directly behind her breathing heavily in her ear. She squirmed as I brought the crop up in front of her caressing the small of her stomach first then bringing it up to her huge firm tits. Lightly, I slapped each breast. I positioned the crop like a bar to rub each of her nipples at the same time. My cock pressing between her legs was drenched from her pussy. I moved my cock back and forth between her hot wet lips.
“Ash, please.” She moaned.
“Not yet.” I bit her ear gently.
Without warning, I pulled away from her. As the music pulsed in the background, I drew the crop back and with one swipe of my hand I brought it down striking her ass with it.
Swack!
“Oh my God!” She screamed in pain but soon the pleasure overwhelmed as I brought the crop back down on the firm flesh of her ass. She arched her back and thrust her ass out begging for more.
“Please, oh please, Ash!” She threw her head back. The blindfold was still firmly wrapped around her eyes. There in the dark she was experiencing an ecstasy she’d never known.
As I struck her again, I saw her firm slim thighs glisten with her juice. Her ass thrust out again her hands still against the wall she awaited my next move.
Tossing the crop aside, I then gently traced my fingers over the red marks on her ass. I fell to my knees and kissed her all over. Taking her ass cheeks in my hands, I spread her wide open. Her clit was so swollen and I could see her throbbing. I buried my face in her pussy licking and sucking her clit until she screamed.
“Ash! Oh, Ash, I’m coming! Oh God, I’m comin
g!”
Finally, her orgasms began crashing over her like thunderous waves. She drenched my face I felt her clit vibrate beneath my tongue her pussy contracting as she came and came. I kept licking her juices up.
Nectar of the gods…
My cock was dripping hard. I could scarcely stand it myself. No woman ever turned me on like she did. Feeling the crop strike her flesh and then seeing her body react was like nothing else.
My fingers found their way into her pulsating dripping pussy. I pumped my fingers in and out while my tongue teased her clit.
“Please Ash! I want you to fuck me!” She moaned.
“Almost, darling, almost.”
I pulled her hands down from the wall.
“There’s one more thing I want you to do, Ronnie.” Keeping the blindfold on her, she allowed me to lead her.
My cock was aching as I knew what I was about to do to her. It was something I’d fantasized about seeing her do for a long time.
I positioned her on the floor just the way I wanted her.
“Squat down, Ronnie. Just like that. Spread your legs wide.”
She did as I commanded no doubt curious as to what I was going to have her do. Still wearing her high heels and the blindfold, she squatted several inches above the floor.
“Now when I remove the blindfold I want you to look directly below you. Not at me.”
With that, I untied the blindfold and let it fall away from her face.
Veronica looked down seeing that she was squatting atop a mirror. Directly below her was a huge suction cup dildo.
“Ash, oh my God!” She then looked up at me.
“That’s right, baby. I want to see you stuff that big dildo up inside your pussy. I want you to fuck it like you’re fucking me. Watch yourself in the mirror. Watch your sweet tight pussy get pounded.”
She smiled wickedly as she pulled her pussy open.
“It’s big…like you, Ash.” She winked.
“Don’t flatter me now, Ronnie. Do it. I want to see your lips open up and take that huge cock inside you. I want to see your wet pussy slide up and down it.”
