“Yeah? Let me return the favor. If anything happens to the people I care about, I’ll happily kill the messenger.”
Barry’s confidence falters just for a split second. His smile flickers into a frown and his eyebrows rise, but he recovers smoothly with a knowing smile. “Enjoy the show, Sharp.”
“Fuck you,” says Dean, shoving past Barry, leading me up a carpeted staircase that winds around the edge of the theater.
I follow beside him in silence, puzzling over the exchange until we pass a few doorways along a gently curving hallway and enter a private balcony overlooking the stage and the public seating below. Dean and I take our seats and accept drinks from a server, but my mind is elsewhere.
“You left your company?” I ask after a few moments of silence. I honestly hadn’t even put much thought into what he did to make his money. I guess when people are wealthy enough, I just assume they make their own rules and could take a week off work if they felt like it.
“Something like that,” he says.
“What happened?” I ask.
“I got my priorities straight.”“Should I assume your vague, cryptic answers mean you don’t want to talk about this?” I ask, feeling a little annoyed. He can kidnap me and uproot my life, but I’m not even allowed to ask him a personal question?
He sighs, gripping the armrests of his chair until his knuckles turn white. “I was putting work before Jen. Once I realized that, I stepped away. I only have one daughter. And it isn’t like we need the money.”
I reach out and squeeze his hand, still feeling a flutter of excited nerves at the innocent gesture, even after I let the man sleep with me, reaching out to touch him feels forbidden and thrilling. “It sounds like you did the right thing. I don’t see what there is to be ashamed of.”
“I didn’t say I was ashamed. I’m just surprised Barry took it this badly. He was always ambitious. He was the first one to agree with me, the first one to come in early or stay late, the first to offer to take on projects no one else wanted. But I never trusted him. I think it was his eyes. I’d catch him watching me like I was a perfectly cooked filet sometimes. So when I left, I passed control of the company to someone else. And now it looks like leaving may be worse for my family than staying.”
“Well,” I say. “You have all those security guys, right? And I’m sure you could afford more if you wanted.”
“I don’t want my daughter to live in the center of a private army. And her summer break ends in a week. She’ll be at school most of the day. She probably wouldn’t appreciate it if I had snipers on the rooftops surrounding the playground.”
I frown, chewing my lip as I think through the possibilities. Beneath us, the seats are nearly filled now and the lights are dimming for the show. A massive red curtain ripples slightly in front of the stage, and I can hear muted footsteps from behind as the performers get ready.
“Giving him what he wants isn’t an option either, is it?”
Dean meets my eye. “No. I’m not going to reward this fucking asshole for threatening my family. Even if I could, he’s not getting what he wants.”
I nod. “I’d feel the same way in your position.”
He flashes a faint grin. “I knew I liked you for a reason.”
“You’ll find a way,” I say. “I know you will.”
“With you at my side, I will,” he says, putting his hand on my bare thigh and sending a shiver of excitement through me.
“Dean,” I say carefully. “I still don’t know about all this. I mean, I want to dive in head first, and maybe that’s what scares me.”
“Sweetheart, if you knew this was a good idea without any doubts, that’d probably mean it was boring. The risk and the excitement is part of what makes it worth doing.”
“Didn’t you say you had no doubts about us? Does that mean this isn’t worth doing for you?”
He laughs. “Damn. You caught me.” His hand slides up my leg until his fingers are against my panties. “I was just trying to talk you into letting me have you right now. At least a taste.”
I gasp, reaching to grip his wrist and push him back. “Dean,” I breathe.
“Keep saying my name all sexy like that, and I really won’t be able to stop.”
“There are people everywhere. Someone might see.” It’s true, too. Everywhere I look I see people waiting for the show to begin. The chances of someone from the general audience seeing us clearly enough to tell what’s going on are minimal, but the nearest booths would have a pretty good chance of figuring us out if they paid close enough attention.
“I don’t care about them. I only care about you,” he says, kissing my neck.
“God,” I gasp. My fingers tighten around the armrest of the chair. Something about his touch overwhelms me. All the doubts and questions bouncing around in my brain slow down to a crawl and eventually fade into nothing when his hands are on me. My worries fall silent. My fear that I’m going to get too emotionally invested only to have him ripped away from me fade. All that’s left is the blindingly strong desire to have his hands on me and to have his attention all over my body.
I lean into the kisses, pushing my hips against his touch. He’s breathing heavily against my neck, and his other hand roughly pulls down the shoulder strap of my dress, exposing my breast. I reach to cover myself, but he stops me, bending to kiss my nipple, which immediately hardens against the warmth of his lips and tongue.
“The server,” I say. “He could come back.”
“He could,” agrees Dean.
“He would see,” I protest half-heartedly, losing even my will to care about being exposed as Dean’s touch awakens every nerve in my body.
“He would.”
I reach for Dean’s zipper, and he takes his hand from me briefly to help pull his pants down and then his briefs. I grip the base of his thick cock, shuddering with the intensity of my excitement.
“The show’s starting,” I say. I steal a glance down toward the stage where the curtain is rising to reveal a man and woman in a spotlight who are dressed in Victorian era clothing. They are saying something to each other, but the pounding blood in my ears makes me deaf to the words.
Dean looks up from kissing me with a smirk. “Are you going to keep talking, or are we going to fuck?”
“The second one,” I say.
With something close to a growl, he pulls me from the chair, bending me over so that just the top of my head is above the railing circling our balcony. If anyone were to look now, they won’t see anything but my face and the upper half of Dean’s body, but it won’t take much imagination to figure out what’s about to happen.
“I can’t believe we’re doing this here,” I say.
“That’s the only part you can’t believe?” he asks, yanking on my panties and tearing them off in a single, powerful motion.
The brutality of it pulses through me in a hot burst of arousal. “I’m so wet,” I say breathlessly.
“I’ll be the judge of that,” he says, fingers exploring my pussy, plunging inside me.
“Oh God,” I gasp.
“You’ll have to keep it down, kitten,” he says with a hint of playfulness in his voice. “People are trying to enjoy the show.
“I’ll try, bu--oh!” I clap a hand to my mouth, cutting off the exclamation that I half-shouted.
He thrusts far more of his cock inside me than I was ready for. He took it slow our first time, but I guess he’s past that now. He pumps himself into me, burying more of his length mercilessly into me with every movement, not caring how it’s making me gasp through the hand I have pressed hard against my mouth, not caring that we’re probably only one sound away from drawing the attention of the nearby balconies.
I buck against him, pushing my ass back against his hips, searching for even more of his impossibly huge cock. Every thrust is an explosion of pleasure that threatens to take the strength from my legs and send me sprawling to the ground. His hands are on my hips, strong and commanding, pullin
g me into him.
He groans with pleasure, and I smile a little to myself, loving that he’s enjoying using my body like this. It feels good to make him feel good, but it’s hard to focus on that when his pace increases and the explosions of ecstasy become a constant blur. My eyes roll back into my head and I cry out, “Fuck!”
There are a few sharp intakes of surprised breath from the nearby booths, and even as I look toward the sounds through blurry eyes and the height of my climax, I feel the warm pulse of Dean’s cum filling me.
“Sir!” says an alarmed voice from directly behind us.
Dean turns, cock still plunged in me to the hilt. “Excuse you,” he says with a level of indignance I can’t believe he can muster with his pants off.
To my surprise, the man in the doorway almost apologizes, but he clenches his jaw and takes a step forward. “I’m going to have to ask you to leave immediately.”
“Sure, get the fuck out and we’ll leave. Or were you hoping to catch a glimpse of my fiancée’s ass?”
The man stumbles backwards, yanking the curtains shut. “I’ll be waiting just outside,” he says in a shaky voice.
Dean helps me to stand, which is a mercy because my legs are wobbly and weak.
“This is so embarrassing,” I say, biting my lip and finding myself not caring as much about the embarrassment as I should. Yeah, it’s embarrassing, but it’s fun. It’s reckless in a carefree kind of way I can’t say I’ve ever really experienced as an adult, and I think this kind of thing could become very addictive.
He pulls his pants up and does his button and zipper with a smirk. Then he gently pulls my dress down over my bare ass, taking his time and copping a few feels as he does. “You may want to come to terms with that, because I’m not done with you tonight.”
I start to smile at his joke, but the look on his face makes it clear he’s not joking at all. “What do you mean?” I ask, reaching to grab my shredded panties and then dropping them when I realize they’re completely useless.
“I mean the night isn’t over,” he says, leading me out through the curtain and past the nervous attendant who looks to be deciding between escorting us out and letting us make our own way.
Dean doesn’t give him an option. He stuffs a hundred dollar bill in the man’s jacket pocket and pats him on the shoulder. “Enjoy the show,” says Dean.
“You too,” says the man, trailing off when he realizes his mistake. “I mean, have a good night,” he says.
Instead of leading me back the way we came, Dean goes farther down the balcony hallway until we reach a door marked “Staff Only”. He opens it without a moment’s hesitation, revealing a series of rafters and platforms from which the stage lights dangle.
“Dean!” I say in a surprised whisper. “We shouldn’t be back here. Aren’t there stage workers or something up here?”
“Doubt it,” he says, leading me toward a narrow wooden bridge that spans the entire stage and leads to another door on the other side.
I look to my right, and from this height, the top of the raised curtain actually blocks us from view of the entire audience. All we can see is the backs of the performers as they work through the scene--which at this moment seems to be a murder. Two men in petticoats are stabbing a woman with plastic knives, splattering fake blood to the ground.
Dean sits down, letting his feet dangle over the edge of the bridge, beneath the railing. I give him a nervous look and a quick shake of my head.
“What?” he asks quietly. “Afraid of heights?”
“It’s not a phobia or anything,” I whisper. “I just have a reasonable level of caution when it comes to precarious positions where I could fall and pull a Humpty Dumpty.”
Dean laughs and the sound is so loud I glance down to the stage, half-expecting all the actors to be staring straight up at us in anger. But they are arguing about where to hide the body, completely oblivious to us. “How is that any different than being afraid of heights?” he asks.
“Okay, here’s an example, I say, sitting cross-legged beside him and making a point of refusing to dangle my legs over the edge like he is. My voice is low as I speak. “I’m not afraid of snakes, but if I found a rattlesnake in my bathtub, I wouldn’t dangle my feet over the edge of the tub and read a magazine.”
“This is different,” he says.
“Are you sure?” I ask. “Because that’s like eighty feet down. You know when people fall from that high they bounce after they land? I think if you are high enough off the ground to bounce after impact you should show a little caution.”
He raises his eyebrows, looking down with curiosity. “Bounce? I’d like to see that.”
I sigh. “So what are we doing up here?”
“Isn’t it obvious?” he asks. “We got kicked out of the balcony before I had a chance to have you all the ways I wanted. Besides, I think it’d be fun to fuck you with nothing but a curtain keeping us from being watched by a thousand people.”
“Fun might not be the word I’d use,” I say. “Maybe terrifying. Reckless. Stupid? Should I think of more words?”
“No,” he says, smirking and pulling his legs up to lean closer to me. “I’ve got other plans for that mouth of yours.”
He kisses me and steals away all my inhibitions in a single moment. I spear my fingers through his hair, wrapping my legs around him as I climb onto his lap, pushing my hips into him. Knowing I still have his cum in my pussy is insanely hot, and before I know what I’m doing, I’ve hiked my dress up and I’m reaching for his belt and zipper, struggling to free that massive cock of his.
Once he helps me get his pants down, I push myself against his length, rocking my hips against him and enjoying the friction. I kiss him still, tongue swirling with his even as the actors below carry on with the show and the audience claps and gasps.
“You’re incredible,” he says.
“You’re not so bad yourself,” I say, laughing a little as I pull at his buttons so I can feel the smooth hardness of his body. I start with his chest, loving the way he feels so much that it knocks the air from my lungs in a surprised sigh of excitement. His skin is warm and the curves and hard lines of his muscles are endless. And his abs… God. I’ve never been with a man who had abs before, let alone the masterpiece Dean calls a stomach.
My body runs on autopilot as I take the sight of him in. My hips still grind into him, but I pull back from the kiss to fully appreciate his body. Thankfully the stage lights provide enough diffused lighting to see him clearly, even if it’s under an almost neon blue light. He has an eight pack, which I didn’t even know was possible, and there are even little ridges of hard muscle on either side of his abs, complete with a hard “V” that cuts straight down to his cock.
I bite my lip, unable to feel it all fast enough or to get my fill. “Have you ever eaten a hamburger in your life?” I ask.
He laughs with surprise. “You’re thinking about food right now?”
“No,” I say. “I’m trying to figure out how you get a body like this.”
He shrugs. “We can talk about my diet later, kitten. Right now I’m more interested in getting back inside you.”
“Deal,” I say, bending back down to kiss him and letting him guide his length inside me.
I gasp, finding being on top and in control to be an entirely different experience with him. Thankfully, my core still hasn’t recovered from the last time he was inside me, so even though it’s still a snug fit, it’s easier to take him, and I don’t waste any time.
Our bodies move together until there seems to be nothing but the sensation of sweat-slicked skin against mine, the fullness from his throbbing length inside me, and the fire of passion threatening to burn me to cinders. In this moment, my heart is laid as bare as my body, raw and exposed, and for the first time in my life, I feel what it’s like to offer myself up without walls and not have it thrown back in my face.
“I’m going to cum,” I say haltingly into his ear, threading my fingers behind hi
s neck for leverage, still increasing my pace.
“Join the fucking club,” he growls, and as if on cue, he tenses and I’m met with a warm rush of his cum deep inside me.
I bury my face in his neck, breathing him in while my own climax tears through me, threatening to shatter me of I don’t hold on tightly enough--if I don’t hold on to him.
The world comes back to me gradually, and only after a few minutes have passed and I’ve ridden out the aftershocks of my orgasm with his length still throbbing inside me. I hear the sounds of the performance and the crowd grow louder, as if someone slowly turns an unseen volume knob.
“Sounds like the show’s over,” I say, wiping a sweaty lock of hair from my forehead.
“But what a fucking show it was,” he says, smirking.
I blush, looking down and finding nothing to quench my embarrassment. My eyes fall on his chiseled torso and my own bare legs on top of him and the small patch of his pubic hair I can see between my legs. God. I can’t believe I’m sleeping with a man like this. No one would even bat an eyelash if I told them he was a professional model or some kind of superstar. He looks the part and then some, and yet right now all his attention is focused on me, every last drop of it.
I smile self-consciously, easing myself off of him, feeling his cum still inside me. A small amount drips down the inside of my thigh, but I feel no desire to clean it away. It’s a part of him, a reminder that I was able to please him and of how much he wanted me. Maybe that’s kinky or gross, but I don’t feel that way with Dean. I know Sean’s cum always made me want to throw up. The thought of it touching me would’ve been enough to make me nauseous.
I slip my dress back on, blushing even harder when I realize he’s content to just lounge back and watch me.
The crowd bursts into applause and I nearly lose my balance, toppling over the waist-high railing and falling. For a moment I thought they were applauding the peep show, that maybe they had somehow noticed us, but a quick look down reveals the show is ending. Somehow, Dean managed to get to his feet and put his arms around me steadying me.
