Chapter Six

It wasn’t the shower that made me feel confident, it was the music. I’m standing in just a towel, finalizing my hair and makeup… actually smiling when he calls.

“I’m here to get you.” I hear a car door close just as he speaks.

“I need a few more minutes.”

“Fine. I’ll come in.”

“No.”

“Camille. Just unlock the door, I’ll wait for you in your front room. Take all the time you need.” I rush to the door and then back to my own room, locking and unlocking so that he can come in, but keeping him from barging into my bedroom. Now I feel hurried and don’t feel the slightest ready for whatever it is he’s going to put me through today.

Choosing to compromise on the bra and panties, I choose a g-string and leave off the bra. This dress is too short for me to be bare assed… but then again I can still feel the air, but this makes me feel better. I do a few small jumps and sways from side to side to see how much movement I can get away with before the girls get to moving… yeah I’ll need to be real careful.

Taking one last look at myself, I primp my hair and throw all reservations out the window and walk toward the door. These heels are slightly taller than the pair I wore last night, and very much taller than the Chucks I like to wear when I do go anywhere.

I walk past him to get my purse, trying not to seem like I’m looking for a compliment, but hoping for one anyway. What girl doesn’t want to hear that she looks nice? “Christ. I’m going to have to make a stop before we get there.” Well, that wasn’t exactly the sound of approval I was expecting, but I guess his mind is elsewhere.

“Let me get my purse and I’ll be ready. Will I need anything else?”

“Possibly a toothbrush for the morning.”

“You’re a funny one. Ok, let’s go.”

“Camille, I wasn’t trying to be funny.” His monotone, sexy voice sends chills over my body when he talks into my hair. A single finger skimming down my bare back before his other hand grips my hip, stopping me just before I reach for the knob. “You look sexy as fuck. Don’t think I didn’t notice those bare tits and the simple string of panties as a compromise. It’s as if you’re already meeting me half way, but still negotiating to keep your independence. I like your determination.” He moves the hair off my shoulder and kisses the inside of my neck, leaving moisture behind from his tongue licking all the way to my ear.

“Is this part of the business arrangement you have planned?” Who was that pathetic, breathy person talking? I’ve never heard her before in my life.

“No, just a bonus.” He slips his hand lower until he’s touching my bare leg, then without any resistance from me he reaches around and runs a finger over the small swatch of material that’s meant to make me feel covered. “I like the lace. But I hope you aren’t too attached to it.” He circles his finger over my clit, sending my back melting against his chest. “Hold still.” And with that he grips the tiny piece of lace and rips it, his second hand helping to tear apart what’s left around my waist.

I want to yell and scream at him for assuming he could rip my clothes… but I can’t speak. He has me breathless and begging for his touch again. My clit is pulsing and I find myself longing for more when he adjusts my dress back into position and slips my panties into his pocket. “That was my counter-offer.” He lightly bites my ear just before he steps away, leaving my back cold to the air and missing the heat from his body instantly.

“Joe is waiting.” He takes my hand and waits for me to lock my apartment before leading me down the stairs and to a limo. “Joe, this is Camille. You will be her driver from here on out.” I barely here what he’s saying over the thumping of my heartbeat in my chest.

“Damon, no.”

“We can do this with everything… or you can learn that I usually get what I want and choose your battles wisely. Is this really something you want to use your energy on when you know so much more is coming? I won’t negotiate when it comes to you having people around to take care of you. This business deal will make you very popular, so you’ll need security in place. Joe is my best guy and who I trust to make sure you get where you’re supposed to be when I’m not there.” I don’t argue. I don’t remind him that I haven’t taken the job yet, because honestly he won’t listen to me about that anyway.

I need to spend the day with him and then decide if this project is something I can really do. Until then I’m just going to let him be himself… let him say and do as he would without me interjecting… that will be the only way to know the real Mr. Darkness.

“Fine. But can you please clear decisions like this with me first?”

“I’ll consider it.”

“How nice of you.” I move over in the seat, allowing him to decide whether he sits next to me or leaves a space. He puts his arm over my shoulder and pulls me against his body. I leave my legs crossed tightly, trying to prevent any finger slippage from him that’ll no doubt send my sex-starved body into a fit. I’m obviously hyper-sensitive when it comes to this man and I don’t need Joe witnessing me come undone.

“Joe, please take us to the cave.”

“Will do, Mr. Deverick.” Joe responds as the partition glass is closing.

“The cave? Should I be worried?”

“You should never be worried when you’re with me, Camille. You’ll soon learn this and it’ll become second nature.” He lightly grips my thigh, putting his fingers around the leg that’s closest to him. I cross my hands just next to his and don’t encourage him to move any further up. I know without a doubt if I uncrossed my legs, we’d be thrown straight into desperate groping and racing straight to sex.

I turn to take in the city as we pass the tall downtown buildings, trying not to think about how quickly he can flip my emotions.

“I’ll be introducing you to the crew tonight, but just remember you won’t have to deal with any of them on a regular basis. It’ll only be on production days where everyone is required to be there. Most of the days will be just a small handful of people.” I can already tell he’s trying to cushion the torture I’ll be putting myself through doing this for him. “Today we’ll just be working with some of the regulars that will work with me. Three women and five men will be at the cave, all of them ready to show you what you’re getting into.”
