Escort

by Emily Hayes

  Vienna paused and then continued. “If I’m totally honest with you, I have always faked it. I always act in sex. Before you, it is very rare I have had genuine orgasms with partners. I always lead, usually. I’ve never been taken with the intensity that you take me. There is something about you, about how you treat me, devour me, and that turns me on so very much.”

  Ashley smiled at her softly and squeezed her hand. “I am so pleased about that. If you ever aren’t happy, if it is ever too much, you just say, ok? You just say stop, and I will stop straight away.”

  Ashley smiled again, an idea popping up in her head. Grabbing a remote, she put on ‘Versace on the floor' and then stood in front of Vienna, her hand extended.

  Vienna looked at her, surprised before a huge smile graced her lips, and she took Ashley’s hand.

  Let's take our time tonight, girl

  Above us, all the stars are watchin'

  There's no place I'd rather be in this world

  The song started as Ashley put her arms around Vienna’s waist, and Vienna’s came to rest on her shoulders.

  Your eyes are where I'm lost in

  Underneath the chandelier

  We're dancin' all alone

  Ashley looked into Vienna’s eyes, leaning down slightly. Vienna’s eyes fluttered shut, and she moved closer to Ashley.

  There's no reason to hide

  What we're feelin' inside

  Right now

  So baby let's just turn down the lights

  And close the door

  Ooh I love that dress

  But you won't need it anymore

  No, you won't need it no more

  Let's just kiss 'til we're naked, baby

  Versace on the floor

  Ooh take it off for me, for me, for me, for me now, girl

  Ashley’s grip tightened on Vienna’s waist, making Vienna open her eyes and gasp inaudibly at the emotions she saw swirling in Ashley’s eyes.

  Ashley’s hand moved up and down Vienna’s sides making her shudder and tighten her arms around Ashley’s shoulders.

  Ashley gingerly turned Vienna around in her arms so that her front faced Vienna’s back, and her arms came to rest on her abdomen. Vienna blushed hard as Ashley put her head on Vienna’s shoulder. The song continued as the two women swayed.

  I unzip the back to watch it fall

  While I kiss your neck and shoulders

  As if on cue, Ashley placed a kiss at Vienna’s exposed skin. Vienna tilted her head slightly, giving her more access as Ashley placed feather-light kisses to her skin.

  “How are you so soft?” Ashley’s voice whispered in Vienna’s ear, making her smile. Ashley genuinely sounded curious.

  So just turn down the lights (down the lights)

  And close the door (close the door)

  Ooh I love that dress

  But you won't need it anymore

  No, you won't need it no more

  Let's just kiss 'til we're naked, baby

  Versace on the floor

  Ooh take it off for me, for me, for me, for me now, girl

  Versace on the floor

  Ooh take it off for me, for me, for me, for me now, girl

  Vienna closed her eyes, leaning back, and put her head on Ashley’s shoulder. Sighing, she let herself feel Ashley’s body against her own. So blissful.

  As the song neared its end, Ashley turned Vienna around and pressed their lips together in a tender kiss. Vienna immediately responded, syncing their movements and pulled Ashley closer. Ashley poured her feelings into the kiss, and Vienna smiled, letting her know she felt the same.

  Versace on the floor

  Floor

  Floor

  The song ended, and the two women pulled back. Ashley tucked a strand of hair behind Vienna’s ear and looked at her like she was the most precious thing in the world.

  Grabbing her hand, she slowly lead Vienna up to her bedroom. The giant oak doors welcomed the two women as Ashley turned the knob and entered Vienna at her heel.

  Ashley led Vienna to the bed and flicked on the side lamps illuminating the room with its soft yellow glow.

  Ashley then let go of Vienna’s hand and stared at her some more. Her already plump lips slightly swollen from the kiss. Her dress had moved a little, showing off her legs more. Her eyes twinkled with a feeling Ashley very much returned. Smiling, she moved closer and grabbed Vienna’s waist.

  “You are.. amazing. In every damn way.” Ashley sighed. Vienna smiled at her and brought a hand to cup her cheek, gazing into her eyes lovingly. Vienna felt herself at a loss for words at this point. She couldn’t believe it all; her feelings were almost too much. Her eyes welled up with tears, and she moved to kiss Ashley.

  This time, the kiss was more frantic. Needy. Ashley pulled Vienna even closer, and Vienna put a hand behind Ashley’s head, tilting it for a better angle. Vienna softly traced Ashley’s lips with her tongue, and Ashley opened her mouth for the intrusion. Sparks flew everywhere as their tongues clashed.

  Out of breath, they pulled back, and Ashley’s lips immediately went to Vienna’s neck, kissing the junction of her shoulder and neck. Ashley breathed in Vienna’s scent and said,

  “You don’t know how long I’ve waited for this.”

  Vienna moaned softly as Ashley bit on her sensitive spot and then licked it.

  Vienna’s fingers dragged through Ashley’s short hair, making her sigh into Vienna’s neck.

  “Ashley..” Vienna breathed out as Ashley continued to leave marks on her neck and shoulder, sucking her, biting her.

  Ashley pulled back to look at her, all flustered and panting. Her hands moved behind Vienna and unzipped her dress, letting it pool at her feet.

  Vienna’s breathing quickened under Ashley’s heated gaze. She was naked, having lost her underwear before they made it out for dinner.

  “You’re perfect.” Ashley’s eyes looked at her body, burning through her skin as if they could see into her very soul.

  She unbuttoned Ashley’s shirt and helped her out of her slacks and her underwear.

  Ashley pulled Vienna to the bed and let her sink into the soft fabric. She looked exquisite, lying there with her golden hair sprawled across the pillows. Her breasts were lifting and falling with her breathing.

  There was a peaceful intimacy to the night as Ashley lay on top of her, her right hand immediately exploring between Vienna’s legs while she kissed her.

  “A-Ashley.. please.” Vienna moaned into Ashley’s neck, biting down on the area as Ashley continued teasing her with her fingers.

  Ashley groaned, feeling Vienna’s teeth sink into her flesh and pushed her fingers inside Vienna. Vienna jolted and pulled Ashley even closer.

  Ashley immediately pulled her hand back out and took the fingers dripping Vienna’s juices into her mouth.

  Vienna’s eyes followed the movement, and she bit her lip.

  “You’re so wet, baby,” Ashley told her as she bent down to kiss Vienna’s neck.

  “I know,” Vienna whispered. “But, I was thinking… tonight might be different. I want to taste you.”

  Ashley drew back and looked into Vienna’s insistent eyes, heady with lust. “I don’t know. I don’t usually…. I don’t usually let women touch me.”

  “Please, Ash, please. I’ll be so gentle. I’ll be so nice. I could just use my mouth if you might like that.” Vienna wriggled out from underneath Ashley as Ashley contemplated her request. Vienna pushed Ashley onto her back, her strong body open and almost vulnerable. Vienna above her, kissing her mouth, her face, her neck. “Please, Ash, please. I’ll be so nice.” Vienna was kissing down over her shoulders, running her tongue over Ashley’s small breasts, her nipples that rose to meet Vienna’s mouth. Ashley didn’t resist. Vienna continued. “I’ll be so gentle. My tongue is so warm and wet.” Vienna kept kissing, down over Ashley’s abs, trailing her tongue into her belly button, dragging it down to Ashley’s thatch of dark pubic hair.

  Vienna’s kisses
down Ashley’s groin. Her inner thighs. Vienna buried her face in Ashley’s pubic hair and breathed warm breaths onto her clit.

  Ashley groaned and relaxed into it, watching as Vienna pushed her leg’s further apart, and her beautiful golden head made its way into her sticky heat.

  Vienna ran her tongue down the folds of Ashley’s vulva, which made her moan loudly.

  “Oh V,” Ashley breathed out, her eyes closing and her head tipping back.

  Vienna lost herself in the taste of Ashley, enthusiastic as she licked and sucked, lost in the world of Ashley’s sex. Tasting her wetness, feeling her body respond and react, hearing her groans. Ashley's hand fisting in Vienna’s hair, Ashley was pulling her head closer while Vienna’s mouth continued to work. Ashley’s breathing quickened, and heat rushed through her body, and she climaxed loudly, pulling Vienna into her.

  Ashley’s hands tightened themselves in Vienna’s hair, and she moved her hips to ride out her high.

  Vienna stayed for a moment, smiling to herself between Ashley’s legs, before moving up to kiss Ashley, letting her taste herself.

  Ashley lay back, spent, gathering Vienna in her arms, and pulled the covers over them both.

  Ashley kissed Vienna’s head, and Vienna snuggled into her arms.

  The sunlight seeped through the gaps in the curtains, and Ashley’s eyes flickered open. She tried to stretch but immediately found it impossible to do so.

  Looking down at the person in her arms, Ashley smiled as she looked at Vienna’s sleeping body. They were clinging on to each other, legs entangled, and sheets a mess. Ashley brought her lips to Vienna’s forehead, placing a chaste kiss that made Vienna smile in her sleep. Ashley’s cellphone chimed, and she moved slightly to grab it from the side table while trying not to wake Vienna up.

  I know what you are up to Ashley Davidson, you and the whore. Soon everyone else will too. You are ruined now, and I will make sure that happens soon.

  Ashley’s eyes widened. She frowned, not understanding the meaning of the text, but it soon dawned on her, and the expressions on her face changed rapidly from confusion to shock and then lastly, panic.

  She looked down at Vienna and subconsciously pulled her closer to her body.

  9

  Who are you, and what do you want?

  Ashley typed hurriedly. She was sitting in her immaculate kitchen now, having left Vienna safely in bed.

  Who I am is not important. What I want is. If you want to keep your secret a secret, be nice to me, or all your clients will refer to you in the past tense. They will know you are a cheat and a liar.

  A reply loaded with threats came back almost instantly.

  After absorbing the initial shock, Ashley pulled herself together and looked toward the stairs, just as Vienna walked down half-asleep in a big T-shirt.

  “Hey,” she said lazily. “I want to say, ‘oh God, I am late for work,’ but you are my only client. So I am good.” Vienna laughed as she hugged Ashley, planting a kiss to her lips.

  Ashley immediately responded, wrapping her arms around Vienna’s waist and pulling her close.

  “I’ll make us some coffee,” Ashley said.

  “Sure, can I get a shower before I head home?”

  Ashley smiled and nodded. She watched Vienna. Beautiful, beautiful sleepy Vienna. Who was this mysterious texter threatening everything between them?

  Ashley settled into her office and called her secretary, who came immediately.

  “Yes, ma’am?” she said politely.

  “Joanna, can you look into this number for me? I need its details to see if it’s in the employee record. Or anywhere else for that matter?” Ashley stated.

  “I’ll send it to the HR guys right away and get back to you,” Joanna replied determinedly.

  Ashley nodded as she intertwined her fingers and put them on the desk in front of her.

  “Everything okay, Miss Davidson?” Joanna inquired. She hadn’t seen Ashley this tense and thoughtful before.

  “Yes, just an old account to settle.” Ashley was sure her unknown blackmailer was someone related to the company affairs.

  “I will get back to you soon about the number,” Joanna said, leaving the room.

  Ashley stayed in the office reviewing some details for the events to come and approving some expenditures, she kept looking at the door. It had been a few hours, and she was expecting Joanna to come back with the details soon, or else she’d have to go down to HR herself.

  Her patience was running thin. If this was actually a threat and not some bluff, as she had initially thought, this secret out in the open could ruin her reputation. How did this person know about Vienna?

  A knock sounded on the door, bringing Ashley out of her thoughts, and Joanna walked in.

  “I got the details you asked. It’s someone named Paul Carter. He worked with us a few years back.”

  “Okay, thank you, Joanna. Good job.” Ashley replied, dismissing Joanna.

  She tried to remember anything she could about the name, but even after trying, it sounded like just another name. They had had so many employees over the years. It was a big company.

  Ashley groaned loudly as she put her head back on the chair. She closed her eyes, and suddenly she remembered. His small piggy eyes and his greasy hair.

  Paul Carter headed the IT department, and Ashley had fired him after a pretty bitter spat, following multiple harassment complaints.

  I know it’s you, Paul, drop it already. You cannot do me any harm.

  She typed the text.

  Her phone beeped.

  Oh, well done! You are smart! Just another thing I love about you, Davidson. Speaking of harm, you ruined my career, so now I will destroy yours. Funny thing, though, you have a lot more on the line.

  Ashley signed and typed back:

  I did not ruin anything for you, it was your all your own fault. I am going to take this shit to the police and get my lawyers involved. So stop threatening me.

  Her phone beeped again, immediately.

  I don’t need to teach you how the media works, Davidson. You take it to the lawyers or the police, and everything will be out in the media tomorrow. You and your little paid whore! I have photos. Good luck with that.

  Unless you behave and do what I tell you to do because this time around, I am the boss. Wait for my next text Davidson.

  Ashley did not reply. She just sat for a while, thinking, then picked up her phone again.

  Text to Trisha:

  Meet me as soon as you are free. It’s urgent.

  Ashley waited at Maison Kayser for Trisha to show up. She sat at their usual table, picking at the skin on her fingers with anxiety.

  The doorbell chimed and in walked Trisha, quickly moving to meet Ashley. Ashley enveloped her in a hug, and Trisha remained quiet, knowing instantly there was something up.

  Pulling back, the two women settled in their seats as Trisha ordered coffee for them both. Ashley kept picking at the skin on her fingers and kept her eyes locked on the table.

  The waiter set their coffee on the table, and Trisha waited for him to leave before she faced Ashley.

  “I fucked up, Trish.” Ashley started before Trisha had a chance to say anything.

  “What happened? Did something happen with Vienna? You two were so good.” Trisha asked, worriedly.

  “No. No, it’s not that. Things with Vienna are good, great in fact. She’s everything I wanted, she’s incredible, Trish.” Ashley looked up at Trisha, unshed tears glistening in her eyes.

  “And now it’s all going to end because of some bastard!” she spat, her hands turning to fists.

  Trisha only listened as Ashley poured her heart out, telling her about the best night of her life followed by that text and the conversation. She told her about Paul and his blackmail.

  “Get your lawyers on him straight away,” Trisha suggested

  “It’s a huge risk that he will just spill to the media before that, and then there is no going back. You know
how the media gets onto me, I don’t want all my clients to think I am a cheat and a liar. I don’t want them to think our relationship isn’t real either. Because it is now.” Ashley had a valid point.

  “I have built everything with years of hard work and patience, You know it, Trish, in business, particularly this one, reputation is everything. Once that is gone, everything is gone.” She continued.

  “You are right, Ash.” Trish smiled sympathetically.

  “You could come out with the truth, telling them you hired Vienna, but now you two really are in love and together, but I don’t think that will work either. Unfortunately, people in my field only want scandals, and that’s what they will focus on, and you cannot afford that. They will focus on her career as a whore and the fact you paid for sex.” Trisha was making some good points.

  “I didn’t even have sex with her in the original arrangement. It wasn’t about that.”

  “You know as well as I do, that the facts don’t matter, sweetie.” Trisha put her hand on Ashley’s across the table. Her rich dark skin and long perfect nails calming Ashley’s stressed finger picking.

  Ashley nodded in agreement.

  “He has photos too apparently. God knows what you can see in the photos.”

  “Oh, my darling. Have you told Vienna?” Trisha asked.

  “No. I haven’t. And I don’t intend to. This will only upset her and.. and I don’t know. Goddammit!” Ashley exclaimed.

  “Don’t you think you should tell her, Ashley? She deserves to know this too.” Trisha whispered.

  “I will tell her, but I don’t think now is the right time, we just started the relationship, and she will think I got into all this trouble because of her.” Ashley clarified.

  “Alright, alright. I think you should meet this guy and do whatever he says until we figure something out. Don’t worry, he doesn’t sound too smart. I think he is just another regular thug looking for a shortcut to money. He is going to want you to pay him off.” Trisha said, before continuing, “But we also cannot afford to underestimate him, so you should follow his instructions for now. I am here for you.” Trisha consoled Ashley.
