They are interested in my remarks. Though I imagine my life must seem pretty boring to them, these high rollers who practically own the city. But I like to keep things simple. I have my routines; I check in with myself; and to me, money is not everything.

I’m eating my filet mignon, and it’s delicious. I have a penchant for red meat and for protein. Cameron pours me some nice red wine. Altogether, the dinner has been really great.

“We want to know more about you,” Cameron says. “Tell us what your fantasies are. We want to know what the passions that drive you in life are.”

Okay, how am I supposed to answer this? They’re certainly digging deep.

“Well, I guess I have to say that I’m driven by a need to be the best at what I do. I like to learn, and I probably will never lose that sense of needing more education on all things.”

I look around the table and try to judge their reactions ,but with these guys, it’s like their poker face is always on. It’s hard to know what’s going on within them. This is probably why they’re so good at being in control.

Me? Sometimes I feel like I wear my heart on my sleeve, and maybe that’s not an asset.

“And your fantasies?” Cameron persists.

Oh my gosh, how am I gonna say this? Should I be truthful, or should I make something up?

I decide to be truthful. What have I got to lose? The worst that can happen is that they don’t like me, and then that means it wasn’t meant to be, and I need to move on.

“I don’t know how to tell you guys this, but I fantasize about being taken care of. I don’t know why I’m like this, and I know it’s unrealistic to expect anyone to tend to my every need, but that’s just the truth of what I want.”

Adam holds my hand and says, “No, Nicole, that’s not totally unrealistic. But you know that to receive that level of giving will require a sacrifice on your part.”

His words level me out. He’s right. To have my fantasy come true, I have to renegotiate the terms of my life. Maybe I want to be taken care of because I’m so sick of being in control all the time. Maybe I want to be taken care of because only then can I feel like I can release fully.

These guys are subtly pressuring me to give in to them. A part of me still doesn’t trust them enough and doesn’t know if I can let go, but a part of me is feeling like I’m willing to try.

We finish dinner and Chase tops off my wine before asking if I’d like a tour of the estate.

Of course I would. This place is palatial and I’m dying to see every room. Being here nurtures my interest in interior design.

Sometimes I get bored with all the new modern architecture and it’s nice to be somewhere that has historical roots.

“Yes, Chase, I would absolutely love a tour.”

He takes me by the hand, but he and the other guys have a hungry look in their eyes, and I wonder ultimately where this will lead.

Adam

We’re leading Nicole through Chase’s mansion, and what can I say? It’s really fun. She has no idea what’s in store for her.

Nicole looks fucking incredible tonight. Her light pink dress is made of something like crushed velvet, and it’s hugging her every curve.

I can see through the fabric that she took our instruction to heart—she didn’t wear a bra or panties. I’m dying to help her step out of that dress and into my arms.

Cameron, Chase, and I have entertained here before. But I don’t think any of us were ever so invested in one woman. We’ve had our fair share of the best women in town, but even they failed to excite a lasting desire in each of us.

Chase eventually became tired of having women to the estate so we mostly entertain in the city. Besides, way out here it’s hard to send them home after you’re done fucking.

Women are constantly throwing themselves at our feet. I can understand Chase’s disillusionment, though Nicole seems to be crushing that by now.

Me, on the other hand, I’m not so easily disinterested. My constant need for new experiences makes me hopeful that one day a woman can capture our attention—all of our attention. Someone like Nicole…

We’re hard to win over. We’re at the top of the pyramid, and we’ve touched and tasted everything. Our senses have been sated by the opulence and abundance that surrounds us. Especially Chase.

I’m shocked he even wanted to invite Nicole here, though I can see why. Normally Chase is so unenthused about new women. It says a lot that he wanted to entertain Nicole here.
