Chapter 23 Darren moved behind me, stretching my leg even more as Kai went completely still. "Just breathe," he whispered to me, resting the head of his dick under Kai's and slowly sliding in beneath him. "I....will.... Find you. When I do, you will pay." "That's enough," Cortina sang out, closing the veil between us again. Cameron sounded so feral. I know he was a monster, but he sounded like one for one. It took me back. Both men were hovering over me, finishing on my breasts and my face when I focused back on the room. "Amazing!" Mr. Smith was balls deep in a dark-haired woman wearing a mask like mine. She was bouncing on his lap with her mouth open in a little 'O' but his eyes were on the screen. "Absolutely fabulous." He stood up, bending the woman forward, then his movements went jerky as he finished inside of her. He panted to catch his breath, mumbling something in his own language to the woman before swatting her ass and sending her on her way. "I didn't think you could turn me on any more than you already do, Masked Lady, but you outdid yourself tonight. So how about it?" He cocked his head to the side and grinned. He lifted a stack of money that was resting on a table beside him. "$50,000 if you take that mask off today." "I'm sorry, Mr. Smith," I sat up, using a wet towel Kai handed me to get the cum off my chin. I'm sure it's all over the mask, but I can't do anything about that now. "I won't do it. No matter how much you offer me." He cocked his brow, looking doubtful. Darren laughed, knowing I couldn't be bought. I wasn't doing this for the money. The first time I did this, money was part of the reason. I had nothing. Money isn't an issue for me anymore though, so no amount is going to get me to take it off. "Well, how about this instead." He fastened his robe and walked to a desk nearby, retrieving a lit cigar along the way. When he walked back, he had three gold bars in his hands. He made one more trip and brought three more gold bars, laying them on his side table so we could see them. "If you come here and fulfill my wishes in person, with or without the mask, I will give you these six bars, and whatever else you wish from me." He took a long puff of his cigar, blowing the smoke above his head. "I could make you a princess. No. A Queen if you wish. All you have to do is be by my side." "Oh, shit," Darren gaped at the screen. Kai sat beside me on the bed, looking offended and glaring at the screen. "No thank you, Mr. Smith." I wrapped an arm around Kai as I rested my head on his shoulder, then reached out to hold Darren's hand. "I can barely handle these two. I have a feeling you would be way too much for me. I am flattered, but I must decline." He sighed heavily. "So be it. I may just have to kidnap you myself one day." My smile wavered, not likely that threat, even if it was a joke. "Unlikely," I muttered. I scooted to the end of the bed, wanting to get out of his watchful gaze. "I'll be in the shower. I have work this evening," I moved past Darren and left the room, not bothering to put on my robe. The entire shower I was fuming at the audacity of Mr. Smith. Not just him, but Cameron's threat was still ringing in my head. "He can't reach us here. It was just a threat," Cortina reassured me. "Although....." "What?" I asked in a dead voice. "Don't be worried. Rome said he hadn't found anything yet, but he did mention his human discovered a video you were in. He just didn't know it was you."

Rome said it is the only thing that affects him, if you know what I mean." I had a guess at what she meant but didn't want to know any more. I wanted to puke. "You're sure he doesn't know it's me?" "Rome convinced him it was someone else that just looked like you. It was the video you did with Jamie where you could only see your bodies. No faces. Your new nipple piercings helped to convince him it wasn't you." I got the piercings on a whim with Cindy when he went to get his done, and I'm so grateful I didn't chicken out. "It may be time to put all this behind us," I sighed. "I think it's time for me to quit." "Really? Does that mean you're also ready to....." She leaves the question hanging in the air. "Yeah. I'm ready to reject him and be done with him. I think we've more than gotten our revenge now." After I finished showering, I wrapped a towel tightly around my body, wringing my hair out with a spare. I really did need to work tonight. It's ladies' night, so the bar will be packed. I told Riley I would be there at seven to help him start setting up. I applied light makeup and my lotion before leaving the bathroom. Darren was standing in the living room, looking peeved, his arms crossed over his chest. There was someone sitting on my couch, but it wasn't Kai. It was Mick, the only asshole in this house I can't stand. He has a look on his face like he's ready for another argument, which is all we ever do. "What do I owe this pleasure," I said with false sweetness. I walked past Darren to the kitchen, grabbing an apple before moving back to stare at the unwelcome intruder.
