"Taz, guess what? I found the perfect woman for you!" Perry happily announced to his friend, but Taz in his drunken state didn't even care about what his friend was saying.
"Just leave me alone, I need to drink myself to sleep, I don't need any woman I'm done with all of this" he responded with a slurred accent.
Perry was worried that his friend would die from drinking too much so he arranged a very nice package for him, all that was left to do was talk him into accepting it.
"Taz, it's a good idea, trust me this is going to cheer you up, this woman will take your pain away," Perry assured him with a naughty smile plastered on his face.
Taz opened his eyes halfway and stared at his friend,
"Nothing can cheer me up" he snapped.
"Wait until you meet her" he insisted and took out a card from his breast pocket,
"She's one of the most mysterious women in this town, she's an escort. Her services are top-notch. You are emotionally unavailable, I know, that's why you need an escort. They don't work with emotions; they only come for a good time, they make you feel good, and get paid. What could be better than this?" Perry said convincingly.
He shook his head, "I'm not in the mood to see anyone, I can't. I'm still not over Louisa" Taz shook his head trying to reject the offer.
"I'm not asking you to date, that's even crazy! I'm asking you to engage the services of this escort and have fun. It will help you feel better,"
"You are asking me to sleep with someone? How insensitive can you be? I just lost my wife" Taz yelled.
Perry frowned, "It's been a year already, get dressed and get the house in order, she may not spend the night but the house still needs to look good when she arrives."
Taz wanted to refuse but didn't want to argue so he just nodded, and closed his eyes to continue with his slumber but Perry continued talking.
"Get dressed, at 10 pm she will be here," Perry said without listening to his protests, "If you are not ready by then I will bathe you myself and force you out of this room" he threatened his friend.
By 10 pm Taz had taken his bath put on some casual clothes and covered it up with a trench coat, he had also paid for the house to get cleaned up and had set the table for a date. Perry's car honked outside so he stepped out and met him in the front yard. Perry came out of the car to meet his friend,
"Listen, the woman will be arriving in a few minutes, she wears a mask, she's mysterious and she likes to keep it that way. She's also great at what she does but it doesn't mean you should fall in love with her, I know how you can be. This is her job so don't mistake it for interest else, your heart will be greatly broken."
"I'm not stupid" Taz replied and headed back for the house.
When he got back inside he sat behind the table that had been beautifully set as if he was preparing for a date night. As he thought of his night with the escort he kept getting scared, the idea of hosting a mystery woman in his house brought tight knots to his stomach. He was a few minutes away from cancelling the whole arrangement when his doorbell rang, he scampered to the door and met a slender dark-skinned woman standing at the door. She flashed him a charming smile and said,
"Hello handsome, you want to have a good time right? I'm Brianna, the one who does inspections and security checks before Roxy comes in" she said with a wink.
Taz looked outside uncomfortably, "Okay, come in," He said opening the door for her all the while wondering what she would do if he attacked her. Maybe she was a trained black belt you never know, he tried to convince himself.
"You do well in keeping this place neat. That's lovely!" She praised him as she went up the stairs inspecting the place to see if it was safe for Roxy to come in. After checking the living room and just one bedroom, she said, "I would like you two to keep it in the living room and nowhere else, that way I can assure the safety of both parties"
Taz nodded in agreement, he wasn't ready to argue with anyone, he wanted to get it over and done with. She smiled and winked again and headed to the exit. "Enjoy your evening Taz." she said as she exited the building.
Taz went back to sit at the dining table, and a few minutes later the door flung open again.
"Come on, pretty boy, you can't wait for a pretty maiden with your clothes on" a low-pitched feminine voice suddenly said as the door closed slowly behind her.
Taz looked up at the doorway and saw a woman dressed in very tight black leather clothing wearing a mask that covered her eyes and the upper part of her face. She stripped off the leather clothes revealing her lingerie.
Her body was to die for, her chest was ample and her hips were broad, her belly was flat with a ring dangling down her belly button. Taz gulped, as the woman approached him and slowly sat on his lap with her hands running through his hair.
"You seem like a good boy, haven't you done this before?" She whispered when she noticed how jittery he had become. She got up from his lap and squatted, then started unbuttoning his trench coat. "This isn't a night for chit chat come with me," she said and dragged him to the couch
She looked up into his eyes and her lips curved into a smile, "are you afraid to admit that you're a good boy? You shouldn't be, let me spoil you tonight. You'll love it" she said in a seductive voice that sent shivers down Taz's spine.
She pushed him on the couch and then slowly glided on him, taking off the rest of his clothes.
He grabbed onto her waist and tried to push her off him, she misinterpreted his actions and took it as him getting into action, so she started to take off her lingerie while dancing in a seductive way and making eye contact with him.
He stared into her eyes worried about what he was about to do, was it wrong or right? His wife had died a year ago but what if her ghost was watching? She would definitely be mad, but what this woman was doing to him was wild and he loved it, it had been a long time since someone provoked such intense feelings within him he wanted to grab her and do nasty things with her but what if Louisa was watching? Her ghost would haunt him.
Before he could pick himself up and leave, this woman was seated on top of him whining her waist slowly.
"This is it!" He thought. "I'm finished, I'm done for"
