I spent money quicker than I could save it. Five thousand wasn’t enough to get Lolani back. I needed to save more and prove to myself that I could maintain on my own without the help of my parents. I had a baby daddy from the deepest parts of hell. After the last stunt Aubry pulled, I refused to let him play with my feelings or my daughter’s emotions anymore.
Bleu stood near his front door; his white dress shirt was open at the collar. He had his sleeves rolled up enough to reveal more of his tattoos. His nutmeg complexion still held its glow. That calm authority attached to his persona along with any movement he made caused my stomach to knot the hell up.
He chose me for the night, out of all the other women that he had access to…
That made me feel special and nervous at the same time. It shouldn’t have, but I couldn’t deny that it did. It made me want to step out of my own body, into his just to see what he saw that made him so determined to get me here. Whatever it was would end after he got what he wanted. So, I kept telling myself to not think too deep into any of it.
His on-call doctor stood next to him with piercing blue eyes. The doctor’s pale skin complexion looked as if the sun never beamed down on it. He was a handsome older guy wearing a white crisp lab coat. In his right hand was a black briefcase.
I blinked and leaned against the floor-to-ceiling window for support. I shut my eyes for a moment and let my thoughts get the best of me.
I should just leave, this is ridiculous. I let this man sniff the seat of my wet panties and fondle my pussy in the bathroom. I even argued with my mom and dad before taking a secure private exit with Bleu.I done really lost my mind….
“There’s nothing to be nervous about, Truly. This is routine, a simple practice to protect ourselves.” His voice sounded deep, smooth and commanding.
I opened my eyes before swallowing down.Routine?
“Okay.” I stated lowly.
This is very fucking weird!I thought as I watched the doctor step away from the door. He set his briefcase on Bleu’s glass console table then opened it with a soft click. I stepped away from the window and walked towards the console.
“Evening, Truly.” The doctor spoke in a comforting octave.
“Evening.” I offered him nervously.
I took a couple of steps away from the window but kept a safe distance. Inside of his briefcase were syringes, small vials, and sterile packets. He focused on the items in front of him before picking up a small white tablet. I looked over at Bleu; his gaze was on my body and not my eyes.
The glint in his hazel eyes screamed danger, hunger, primal need to devour every curvy inch of me.
“Mr. Langston insists on screening before any…” the doctor looked up at me. Mischievousness was written on his face before he continued. “Intimacy…by the way, my name is Dr. Ryan.” He smiled but it didn’t reach his eyes.
Money talked, bullshit walked. Dr. Ryan didn’t give a fuck about why I was here at eleven p.m at night. He gave a damn about his patient Bleu and how Bleu kept his pockets laced. Not a hair on Dr. Ryan’s head was out of place. He looked as if he had just walked into the hospital to start a new shift.
“This will be a thorough screening, perhaps the two of you can relax and get to know each other while I work.” Dr. Ryan continued.
“Screening?” My eyebrows shot up.
“Yes screening, it will be quick tests. Dr. Ryan will need your blood, and saliva…for the both of us.” Bleu’s lips curved faintly.
I stared over at him caught between disbelief and curiosity.
“You do this every time?” I asked.
“Every single time.” He stated simply, Bleu slipped his hands into his pockets. “Clean business. Clean pleasure. Now usually there would be paperwork that you would have to sign. NDA’s and a possible interview with you laying out on a table nakedwhile I inspect you. I didn’t expect to feel such a pull with you, Thickumz.” He chuckled.
“So, the direction that we are taking will be a little different.”
I watched Bleu carefully. He walked pass Dr. Ryan to his cream-colored sofa. He raised his pants with his hands before taking a seat and spreading his legs wide. My goodness! The thick bulge between his legs looked like it was fighting to make its debut release. Goosebumps spread across my arms. The butterflies that I felt earlier returned as I continued to watch Bleu silently.
“Come sit next to me, Ryan will be ready to start any moment now.” Bleu instructed smoothly.
“Look, I’ll do this…” I eyed my silver clutch bag that sat on top of his bar.
I thought about the five thousand dollars inside of it, then told myself to go along. Bleu was fine and paid. He looked like an experience, nothing you just tried and put off to the back of your mind. Something told me that I would spend countless days recalling this night. I could see myself already craving him after all of this was over, but truth be told…I’d rather eat glass until I took my last breath before I let myself become head over hills for another man. I never wanted to go through the nightmare that Aubry was currently putting me through.
I cleared my throat and batted the fog away then looked Bleu in the eyes as I spoke.
“This is it. After tonight, we go on about our lives.” I spoke out confidently.
