The door knob turned and he was surprised to find her in such a way. Her hair was wet and the black hair that he had only seen straight was dripping ringlets around her. Her dress was on wrong or different than it had been before and he could tell almost immediately, that she was a few sheets to the wind.
“Where have you been?” His words were rougher than he had expected them to be and she recoiled from him as she closed the front door.
“What does it matter?”
“It matters.”
He was halfway up the stairs and she could see the glint in his eyes. He seemed pissed off and she wasn’t quite sure why but she didn’t like the way he was acting. The air conditioning from the house was making her cold, as the wet hair dripped down her back and front. Her bare shoulders and arms, as well as her clothing were drenched with sea water. All Drew wanted to do was go upstairs and take a shower. Dealing with her stepbrother, was not something that she wanted to do.
“I don’t have time for this Lars. I am tired and want to go upstairs.” She made her way to the bottom of the stairs and it became clear that he was not going to move. He obviously still had things to say and Drew pushed her wet hair back to cover the cool back that was freezing her.
“Why did you and that girl take off?”
“Who? Court? Because I wanted to. What is wrong with you Lars?”
“What are you two, like lesbians or something?” It would have made sense to Lars. He hadn’t been able to understand why she didn’t want him and it seemed he had figured out the answer to that. The reason she wasn’t interested in him must be because she was batting for the other side. It saddened him and assuaged his ego at the same time.
Drew made a face that begged to differ. “No, Gosh.”
His eyes took in her wet dress that clung to her body. The blush pink was too white and the wetness from her dripping hair, made the material far too see through and he couldn’t take his eyes from the dark nipples that pointed out towards him as he spoke. Lars could hear her say something, but her voice sounded far away like she was not standing right in front of him.
“Jeez you are weird bro. I think you may have had more to drink than I did. I am going to bed, move.”
Lars should have moved, but he didn’t. His feet were planted to the carpet beneath him, standing in the way of her going up the stairs. There was anger in her dark depths. He did not know how to deal with her and he didn’t know how to deny himself the one thing that had been on his mind all week. Lars was not made to be denied and he took a step towards her.
“Move Lars. I can’t deal with you right now. Did you and Maggie have a good time?” Her voice held derision that she couldn’t placate.
“Are you jealous?” He moved another step towards her and his eyes were finding it hard to stay on her face. She was not happy with him and sobered up. Drew was finding it even harder to understand why he liked to bait her so, or more importantly, why she let him.
“Lars what the hell are you doing?” Drew moved her face as his came towards her. She pushed back on his chest as he leaned in.
“I just want a good night kiss sis. That’s all.”
His lips touched her cheek and then moved to her mouth. Lars’ hand shook as he pulled her to his tight body. It took effort to move her lips open enough to delve his tongue in. She tasted sweet to his senses and he finally rejoiced with the small moan that escaped her lips. That sound alone jerked his cock to life and he knew that she felt the movement. Drew gasped.
The action of his cock, ended the pleasure on his lips. She pushed him harder and he finally moved away, his eyes dilated as he looked down at her.
“What are you doing Lars?!” Drew pushed passed him and fled up the stairs. She didn’t look back and didn’t stop until her door was closed and locked. Her chest heaved as she leaned back against the door. What the hell was that?
It didn’t make sense to her and she spent far too much time on the other side of the door, listening to see if she would hear him in the hallway. She had thought to take a shower first, but she found herself inspired to paint and she moved to the pile against the wall, thumbing to the back and pulling out the unfinished portrait she had been working on. She hoped that like all of the other paintings she had done in the past, once it was on the canvas, she hoped that the images in her head would leave her. It was the process and she hoped that it would work that time.
When she was sure he was gone and he was not upstairs with her, Drew moved to the bathroom at the end of the hall. The shower was bigger down there and she liked that it had a small built in sitting area. Drew was horny and she was hoping the reprieve could temper her feelings. It wasn’t until she had her hand on the door, that she thought she heard something. Stopping to listen, her blood pounded in her ears.
Drew finally moved inside and took in the large, marbled room. It was like the ones she had seen on the television and she didn’t think she would ever get used to it. The gleaming surfaces were almost too pretty to use, but the water pressure was enough to draw her in anyways.
Starting the water, she watched steam billow into the room, filling it so that she could barely see her own reflection in the mirror behind the double sinks. Pulling her clothes off, Drew stepped in the water and sighed with the feel of it on her skin.
Chapter Six: Recording
Lars was enraged when she walked away from him after their kiss. If he hadn’t been so hard and in need, he probably would have followed her up to her room, but he didn’t trust himself around her at that time.
Instead he listened for her to go in her room and he knew that her routine in the house was a shower in the upstairs guest bathroom. The room was large enough and the linen closets were empty enough in the bottom that he pulled a chair up and waited. He didn’t have a plan at first, but maybe to just glimpse the small parts that had been covered from the bikini. He wanted to see the hard nipples without the wet dress on them. Lars just needed to see her.
When she finally came in and started the water, it got misty and his view was obscured, taking out his phone, he started to record her, setting the phone at the corner of the stilted door. He could tell by her movement and sounds that she was as turned on as he was. Was it him that she thought of while she writhed in pleasure on the short indention?
Lars needed to see more, so he crept out while she was in the throes of an orgasm and turned the exhaust on to pull in some of the steam. It was starting to clear as he moved back into his hiding spot. Soon, the only thing between him to muddle her form was the frosted glass of the shower. He didn’t have the guts to open it, so he waited for her to finally come out.
He made a sound and had to cover his mouth so she couldn’t hear him. She was the closest to perfection that he had ever seen. His body was immediately ready to take her on. His mind raced with how he would be able to get her. Lars had never really had to try too hard and in some ways, he was at a loss.
Drew dried off her body, unbeknownst that he was watching her and taping it all. The next thing she did really surprised him. Instead of leaving as he had thought she would, Drew instead sat up on the sink and pulled out a joint from what he thought was her shower bag. It was strange to see her like that. He wouldn’t have guessed it and he watched her through the lens of the camera. Her full body was on display and the part that was not facing him, was shown through the mirror as well. Lars was in heaven and he wanted more. It was not enough for him to see her, he wanted to touch her and taste her, feel his hardness suffocated by her tight folds.
It felt like hours he was in there. She finished her vice, and made sure to blow all of the smoke up towards the exhaust fan that he had turned on. Drew didn’t seem to realize that she was on display or they the exhaust had not been turned on by someone else.
***
“I was at the party last night and before I left, I got to see an eyeful of a very naughty girl. You will meet me in two days at The Monte Carlo Hotel at room 382. I want you there early in the morning,
so I will have all day with you. Do this, or I will release this to multiple porn sites and everyone will get to see first-hand what a dirty girl you are. You don’t want that do you Drew? What would your parents think?”
It was signed anonymous and she knew that the email address was a one-time use. She searched it anyways and like she had thought, it came up with nothing. Her hands shook on the mouse as she clicked on the attachment. She was expecting pictures or something, maybe one of her exes was mad at her. She did not expect it to be from the night before. Even though it made mention of the party, it didn’t occur to her that it would be a video of her in the shower the night before. She watched it all the way through and when the person left the shower, she only saw the shadow.
Then the steam cleared in the shower and she was more in view. It was clear what she was doing, but Drew held out hope that it was as much as they got. When she got out and sat in front of the mirror smoking the joint, then she needed to worry. It couldn’t get out that she did drugs, even minor ones that were legal in many states. It wasn’t in hers and she couldn’t imagine what her uptight mother would think about it. She would be crushed and Drew had a real fear that they would want to stop paying her tuition.
She went from leery to actual fear and she wasn’t sure quite what she was going to do. She watched it again and then stopped it with the figure moving to turn the exhaust fan on. She wished that she could see him, as well as he had seen her, but it appeared that it was not going to happen. She paused the feed again, noticing that there was a very expensive watch in the shot. Drew had seen it before and she started to think she realized who it was. She could be wrong though.
“Drew. We have to go dear. The chopper is taking us out there in about ten minutes. We can finish the rest of it when we get there.”
Drew looked up at her mom and closed her laptop. She tucked it under her arm and told her she would be down in a few minutes. Her mother looked anxious, so much so that she didn’t realize how stressed out her daughter was. Drew was glad for that, so then she didn’t have to worry about all of the questions that she didn’t have answers to.
“Okay ma. Smile, this is a happy day.”
Christine nodded but she was no prepared for it. There were the normal nerves and the wedding on the water. It was the start of their adventure and her new life. She knew it was going to turn out well, but there were still the last minute jitters to worry about.
Drew grabbed her phone and the dress that she was supposed to wear to the service. It was set for that night and she knew it was going to be beautiful. She was just as nervous as Christine by the time they got to the helipad that was on the roof. She never would have known it was there if she hadn’t been up there to get on the helicopter. It would be her first time riding one and she was a bit more nervous than she had anticipated. Lars was nowhere to be seen and it was for the best. She didn’t think she could deal with him and the stress of the small aircraft at the same time.
“Don’t be nervous mom. You guys are perfect together and he will be your turtle.” There was a story they watched years before about two turtles that had been together eighty years. It was right after the divorce and Christine had started crying over it. She wanted her own turtle and at the time, she never thought she would find it. A divorce makes a woman think that there will never be another. But she had found her other and Drew couldn’t be happier. The only thing that could make it even better was if there was no stepbrother to tangle with. Lars was exhausting.
Chapter Seven: Blackmailed
The wedding was an intimate affair that had everyone a little teary-eyed. Drew figured that everyone was going to get laid that night. It made her think back to why she wasn’t and what the email from that morning meant. Lars was out of sight most of the night and it made her even more suspicious. She had a feeling that she was not going to be shocked by who had watched her. The very idea that someone had seen her in such an intimate moment, made her cheeks grow red and she ended up in the bathroom to splash some cold water on her face.
Going back out, she danced with a few older men that were now supposed to be related to her. Like Lars though, they looked at her with less than familiar attraction. She finally got away and asked one of the servants when the helicopter would be back. Drew had had enough fun for one day and she was ready to go home.
It was due back in ten minutes, so she went to say goodbye to her mother and Charles. Finding them, she hugged Christine. They would be gone close to a month and she would miss her. It was much like when she had left several months ago on her own journey. Drew knew she was in good hands, so when she got in the chopper to get home, her mind went to the other pressing matters.
The very idea that her stepbrother would watch her, tape her and then blackmail her over it was a lot to take in. There was nothing she could do about the tape. All she could do was somehow get it back or do what he wanted. By the kiss and the way his eyes roamed over her, she was pretty sure she knew what he wanted in exchange for his silence. But like all situations like that, there was no telling when it would end. Drew hated the idea of someone having that much power over her. With the parents gone, things could go from bad to worse quickly.
She stayed up most of the night thinking about the email. She watched the video multiple times. She was trying to find a clue or some indication that what she thought was happening actually was. It was a scary concept to think about, but at the same time, it made her wet. The scary idea was if it wasn’t Lars. Drew tossed and turned most of the night.
How early was she supposed to be there and who would it be when she got there? The very idea that she wouldn’t go had not even went through her mind. She had to go. Drew couldn’t afford to have such career-breaking footage out on her, before she even had a career.
She finally jumped in the shower that was off her room. It was smaller, but she at least felt like she had some privacy. Drew even caught herself opening all the closets, just to makes sure. She took her time getting cleaned and shaving, but she did not touch herself. Drew didn’t like that her lips were puffy and she was wet from more than the body wash. Ignoring her trepidation and desires, she dressed in a light skirt and blouse. Doing her hair and makeup, she figured that looking good never hurt anything and she at least would feel put together.
She drove down to the hotel after she put it in her GPS. She had never heard of it before and when she pulled up she knew why. A valet came out to take her car and she was really shocked. It was one of those types of places that she would have never been able to afford before. But now she was taking helicopters rides to weddings on yachts and dinner in Chicago. She sighed and it became clearer to her that it was Lars. Who else would do something like that in a place like this? She thought to herself.
Drew went through the front and was happy that she had made sure that she looked okay. It was a very nice place and when she got to the elevator, there was an attendant in there to push the button for her. She supposed that the rich couldn’t be bothered with such mundane tasks and it made her smile. The lightness filled her with less worry and she had succumbed to the feeling of acceptance.
Her hand barely shook as she knocked on the door. She waited for someone to answer and finally she heard the lock unclick. The door didn’t open, but she figured it was her that would have to open it. Turning the knob, her heart fluttered and then Drew pushed it open. She didn’t know what she was expecting, but Lars to be waiting for her on the bed was not it. She had in her mind some talk, something. It was just him, half naked and grinning back at her.
“I knew it was you Lars. Do you know how incredibly fucked up this is?”
“If that were the case, I would wonder why you were here? If you knew it was me.”
“Because I bet you would put that video out there. If you would do this, you would definitely do that.”
“Well that is not the best attitude to have. I had to get your attention somehow.”
“Here I am, now give me the damn video o
r delete it off your phone.”
“I can’t. That would be a shame to lose such a treasured film. What will you do for me?”
“Nothing.”
“Then why are you here?”
“I already told you why.”
“Why are you wearing makeup and looking so nice?”
Drew didn’t have a rapid response for that. She couldn’t say it was because she wanted to look nice for him. That was unacceptable to say and she wouldn’t admit it. Drew didn’t want to be attracted to Lars, but as he lay there with his shirt off, her body responded to the hard lines and smooth chest. Her fingers itched to touch him, but she stood there.
He patted the bed next to him and her eyes widened a little. Could she go through with it? She sure the hell wanted to, but something was pulling her back. Drew shook her head.
“Fine, take your clothes off first.”
Her dark eyes got a little bigger and she bit her lower lip with her teeth. Drew didn’t want him to see her nipples hard and the moisture creeping out from between her lips. It was just too much and she shook her head no again.
“Then I will download the video this morning.”
Drew shot him a look, but he just shrugged. He didn’t seem to be bothered, but just moved back towards the headboard. He put his hands behind his head and waited. They both knew what she was going to do in the end, but she was trying to get over the fear and reluctance holding her in place.
Finally her hands moved and she touched the buttons going down her thin blouse. She started to unbutton the shirt slowly and she watched his eyes darken as well. Drew felt a surge of power and though she knew it was wrong, she liked having a man look at her like that. She liked that she made him so crazy. Lars was a very attractive man and it was not lost on her in the least bit.
