I felt so alive.
It was time to put on a show. Somehow, I knew that Silas had arranged for this opportunity for me and I wasn’t going to waste it. This was a chance to show the world what I was capable of and I was going to take it.
Slowly, I swayed my hips from side to side as the drumbeats boomed out into the arena. The crowd cheered for me and their applause made my heart pulse with excitement. All the nervousness I’d felt earlier fled away and I situated the mic just far enough away from my mouth before I started to sing.
That night, I put on the show of my life. I sang and danced to the best of my ability, running through each routine as if it was the most natural thing in the world. I worked the crowd and they screamed and applauded each number as if I was the main act itself.
It was the most surreal thing I had ever experienced.
As I danced and sang, my eyes kept returning to the man in the front row. I belted out each lyric as if I was singing just for him and he smiled, his gaze growing darker as the night when on. When I rocked my hips back and forth, I looked right at him, openly challenging him in front of everyone watching.
I gave the performance of my life that night and I hoped that the press would be talking about it for days to come. When I finally put the mic back into its stand, I took a deep breath and enjoyed the floaty feeling of a successful gig as the sound of applause overtook everything else. By the time my performance drew to a close, I felt positively overjoyed. It was the best night of my career yet, hands down.
It was an intoxicating feeling. Even now, I could feel that my nipples were hard and that my panties were soaking wet. I wasn’t quite certain if it was because of how well the show went or if it was because I had been performing for Silas all along.
I glanced in his direction one last time before I waved goodbye to the screaming crowd. He smirked as his eyes caught mine, causing a cold shiver to race down my spine. It was as if he knew something and I didn’t. I tried to ignore it. My heart pounded as I strode off the stage and I tried to focus on the overwhelming feelings of a successful show instead of him, but it was so very hard. There was another chilled glass of champagne as well as a platter of chocolate-covered strawberries waiting for me. I grabbed one and took a big bite, moaning with pleasure as the sweet flavors washed across my tongue. I finished the decadent treat in a few bites and as I was reaching for the glass of bubbly, I heard the door open and close behind me. I wondered if it was Silas and my pussy clenched expectedly.
I turned and Damon was there instead, patiently waiting with his hands folded in front of him.
“Gather your things and come with me,” he instructed.
“Where are you taking me?” I asked, still floating on an adrenaline high. I felt so giddy it was hard to focus on anything else.
“There’s a limo waiting for you around back. I’m to fetch you and bring you to it,” he answered. Again, there was something evasive about the way he answered me, but I chose to ignore it. I took a tiny sip of champagne before placing the nearly full glass back on the table.
“Would you mind turning around so that I could change?” I asked him and he shook his head.
“There’s no need. I suggest you stay dressed as you are,” he replied, and I wondered if I was being taken to another show or after-party of some kind. With a shrug, I nodded and gestured for him to lead the way. I followed him out of the venue and into a waiting limo. I slid inside, only to find myself staring into the eyes of the man who’d made this all happen.
“I’m proud of you, little one,” he purred, and I swallowed nervously as I tried to figure out what I wanted to say to show him how much I appreciated what he’d done for me tonight. I wondered what he’d expect from me in exchange.
“Silas,” I whispered. “I don’t know how you managed to arrange something like this but thank you. This means a great deal to me. More than I could ever put into words,” I added.
“I take care of what’s mine,” he murmured. For a moment, I was a bit taken aback by his words and I let him know.
“I’m not yours,” I sneered, and he smirked back in my direction. He didn’t make an effort to correct me, but he lifted his chin with amusement as he stared boldly back at me.
“Where are you taking me?” I asked him.
“You’re coming with me back to my penthouse,” he answered.
“I’m not going with you,” I replied. I pushed the door handle and it didn’t open. I was locked inside. “Let me out,” I growled.
“You belong to me now, little one. You’re going to be my pet and tonight, I will be using every one of your pretty little holes. The only thing left for you to decide now is if you’d prefer to be fucked at my penthouse or back onstage as an encore to your performance,” he replied.
I stared back at him in shock a
nd my mouth fell open into a shape of an ‘o.’
“Make your decision, my little pet, or else I’ll bare your pretty bottom and spank you right here until you’re ready to make a choice,” he threatened, and my pussy tightened hard with arousal.
I swallowed heavily, knowing that there was only one right answer. I had no doubt that he would make good on his threat and a jolt of anxious arousal raced through me.
“I choose to go back to your penthouse,” I whispered. I closed my eyes for a long moment before I opened them again. His control surrounded me like a blanket, comforting and terrifying all in the same breath.
He smiled. He’d known I was going to make that choice.
“If I slid my fingers into your pretty little pussy right now, what would I find, my little pet?” he asked darkly, and an aroused shiver raced down my spine.
