AlphaHeat: What’s up with the mask?

AlphaHeat: Take off ur shirt

I pop the sucker out of my mouth. “I’m reading The Yellow Wallpaper, Billie. Have you read it before?” Engage the viewers, Lorna said. Make them feel special.

Okay, maybe reading my Literature assignment on a live cam site isn’t the smartest move,but I couldn’t think of anything else to do. And it’s not likeThe Yellow Wallpaperis some rare college-only read. Right?

My shirt? Was I ready for that? Should I ask for something?

“My shirt, AlphaHeat? Have you been a good boy?”Did I just say that?“The mask is to keep my identity a secret. Just like a superhero.” I wink, then place the sucker back in my mouth, slowly turning it as I pop my chest out.

I don’t know where the confidence is coming from—maybe adrenaline, maybe survival instinct—but it pours out of me like I’ve done this a hundred times.

TemptingTroy: Ur cute lol. Take off the mask and let me see your face.

Fuck me! Two subscribers. That means money. Donations and subscribing are how you make it, and I’ve made some. I’m not a complete failure.

BiteTheBoss:Say my name babe

LustMechanic: Show us that smile

I laugh softly, but it isn’t really funny. I know to get more subscribers and to make money, I need to remove some clothing.

“BiteTheBoss, how did you come up with that name? Are you a biter?” Then I smile widely, and toss a wink to LustMechanic as if he was sitting right in front of me.

BiteTheBoss: I can if you want me to. What’s your name?

“Bliss,” I tell him. Lorna had suggested using a name that wasn’t my real one.

BigBill1984: Why are you reading that book?

I pick up the book in my lap. “It’s for class,” I tell them, shifting it so the title is visible in the frame. “The Yellow Wallpaper. It’s kinda creepy, but super interesting. A woman’s descent into madness... wallpaper patterns and metaphors, that whole thing. I’ll let you know how I like it when I finish.”

The chat keeps buzzing. I see emojis, a string of fire symbols, hearts, and a few messages I ignore because they’re just downright disgusting. It’s hard to keep up with all of them as more people join the chat. But it’s time for more.

ChainReactionX: Stand up and give a turn.

ChainReactionX: Let us see everything

I lay the book down on the bed and stand up, cocking my hip out to the side before slowly turning around. I don’t know what comes over me, but when I have my back to them, I bend over, giving them a prime view of my ass and the cherry red thong I’m wearing.

Once I’ve given them enough time to look, I turn around and sit back down on the edge of the bed. I am a little bit more confident that I can do this than when I started.

RoughPlayRay: Damn baby, that ass. Can I get your number?

“Sorry I can’t do that.” I give him a pouty lip, playing up that I’m really sorry I can’t.

BadBoyBane: Read it in a sexy voice, lol.

Reading. Hey, that's not too bad. Sexy voice; now that’s tricky. I take a deep breath, trying not to let the heat in my face take over. I tilt the book up and begin reading.

I read the first line, every part about being ordinary hitting me in the chest. The words feel stiff in my mouth, but I keep going, the cherry sucker tucked in one cheek as I read. I try not to watch the viewer count climb. Twenty-five. Thirty. Forty-two. More comments. Some nice. Some not.
