There was no way out – my friend dragged me to the ball. As soon as we got in, Mel pulled us to the bar and whispered in my ear:
“It’s an open bar tonight, so you’re going to drink until all that sadness washes away!” Mel handed me two tequila shots while holding two more in her hands. “Let’s down these!” We knocked back the tequila, and Fred was already handing each of us a cosmopolitan.
Melissa dragged me to the dance floor, and I was actually having fun. When a slow song started playing, Fred and Mel began slow dancing together. I took that as my cue to head to the buffet, but I didn’t make it there. I felt someone grab my hand, and when I turned around, there was a man in a black mask smiling at me – and what a smile! He kissed my hand and pulled me close, whispering in my ear with a husky voice:
“Surely the most beautiful woman in the room won’t deny me a dance, will she?”
“And why not? Let’s dance,” I smiled back at him.
It was impossible to resist that seductive husky voice and that gorgeous crooked smile! He was tall with broad shoulders, had a charming smile and blue eyes – so blue they were almost violet. He had sinfully tempting lips, brown hair, and when he pulled me by the waist, I placed my hands on his chest and could feel he was a wall of well-defined muscle. Although the mask concealed his face, he was very charming and enchanting.
“I’ve been watching you since you arrived,” this mysterious man whispered in my ear. “You’re so beautiful!”
“You’re kind. But you’re not from around here, are you?” He had a powerful presence, radiating authority.
“No. A friend convinced me to come to this party.”
“Looks like we have something in common – my friends convinced me to come too.”
“Lucky me!”
“And why’s that?” I smiled.
“Because I was captivated the moment I saw you. You’re stunning.” As he whispered in my ear, I got goosebumps, feeling my face flush and my body tingle – he truly had me enchanted.
“Even with the mask?”
“Even with the mask! You’re too beautiful.”
“You’re such a charmer.”
“You think I’m charming?”
“You know you are. And handsome too.”
“I’m glad you like what you see.”
“And what do you do for a living, handsome?” – I felt a bit dizzy, not sure if it was from the drink or the delicious cologne that man was wearing. I ended up stumbling over my own feet.
“Are you okay?”
“I think I need some air.”
“Come with me.” – He pulled me into a dark hallway that led to an emergency exit and started fanning my face. – “I really want to kiss you. May I?” – I nodded yes.
He looked into my eyes, held the back of my neck, and our lips met. It started slow but deepened; he pressed me against the wall, and the kiss intensified even more, almost taking our breath away. When he broke the kiss so we could breathe, we looked into each other’s eyes – it was like throwing gasoline on fire. He ran his hand down my waist to my thigh and pulled my leg up to his waist. I was completely surrendered by then, feeling his body against mine. I went crazy with desire and pulled him closer, wrapping my leg around his waist.
“You’re a great kisser!” – I smiled at him and felt my whole body tingle.
“Oh, beautiful, you’re incredible. I want you so badly, here, right now!” – he said between kisses and slipped his hand under my dress, pulling it up and reaching my panties. I was on fire when he put his hand inside my panties and moaned. – “Oh! So delicious! So hot, so wet!” – He said and kissed me harder while unzipping his pants. With a quick movement, like someone who had done this before, he tore my panties and caressed my entrance, as if asking for permission. He looked into my eyes again and asked: “What do you want me to do?”
“I want you inside me now!” I responded shamelessly, already panting with desire. I couldn’t resist those eyes and that husky voice. I’d never been like this before – normally, I would have pulled away the moment he grabbed my hand, but tonight I had promised myself to have fun and live in the moment if someone interesting came along. And that’s exactly what I was doing, living in the moment.
Hearing me, he entered me slowly, watching as I leaned my head against the wall and savored every inch of him – and he was huge. He took the opportunity to scatter kisses along my neck. When he was fully inside, he paused and whispered between kisses in my ear: “Now I’m going to move.” He pulled out only to thrust back in with full force this time, and it was incredible. I was completely lost and driven wild by his movements as he moved in and out of me frantically.
We lost control and gave ourselves over completely, as if nothing else existed around us. I felt a haze in my eyes as my orgasm began to build, and I moaned softly in his ear. At that moment, he seemed to go crazy, lifting my other leg to his waist as I wrapped them around him. Kissing me intensely, he thrust even harder into me – it was heaven on earth. I came moaning into his mouth in an incredible orgasm, but he kept going, and soon another orgasm built up. I came again, even more intensely than before, leaving me breathless. As I was coming, he whispered that he was close to his limit feeling me pulse around him, and soon I felt his hot release inside me.
We stayed there against that wall, completely breathless, his forehead resting against mine. While kissing me, he slowly withdrew, and I was thoroughly satisfied – as Melissa would say. I smiled and he looked at me, gave me a soft kiss and said:
“You’re truly amazing!”
He gently lowered my legs until my feet touched the ground, fixed my dress, adjusted his pants, and hugged me. It was so intimate, so affectionate – despite the wildness of our encounter and the intensity with which we’d given in to each other, he was still gentle with me. I’d never had such an incredible experience, but I’d only ever been with my ex until now. And my ex had never cared about hugging me afterward, or worried about my pleasure – for him, it was just about getting in and out until he was satisfied. So having a man care about me, about my pleasure, take care of me – it was new, and amazingly so. He kissed my neck and whispered in my ear:
“So, beautiful, I still don’t know your name.” It took me seconds to process and finally realize that I’d just had sex with a complete stranger whose name I didn’t even know.
Just as I was about to speak, he pulled his phone from his pocket and asked for a minute to answer it. He stepped away slightly and I could only hear him raising his voice saying:
“What did you say?” At that moment, the stranger ran off as if he’d forgotten about me, or as if he was just running away from the woman he’d quickly hooked up with at the party.
Of course, Catherine, you’re an idiot! But so what? To hell with it, I was just having fun too, and I didn’t even know who the guy was, and he didn’t know who I was. All good. I pulled myself together, looked in vain for my torn underwear – no idea where he’d thrown it – and left that hallway.
I went back to the table and found Mel and Fred making out. They soon stopped and focused on me:
“Mel, I think I found the Big Bad Wolf!” I laughed, and she laughed with me.
“When we get home, I want to know everything!”
“Of course you do!” I replied with sparkling eyes.
“Prince, I think we can go now. What do you think, Cat?”
“I’m ready whenever you are!” I said, downing a glass of water.
“Let’s go then, girls!” Fred said and led us to the exit.
We’d barely gotten home when Mel started demanding:
“Tell me everything – who is he, how it went, how it didn’t go, everything.”
I laughed and told her everything. When I finished speaking, my friend was staring at me open-mouthed and asked:
“You guys used protection, right?”
My heart started racing! Shit, we hadn’t used protection. I shook my head no at her; I was in shock realizing how careless I’d been. She immediately tried to calm me down:
“No, Cat, calm down. I’m sure nothing will come of it. But you should get some tests done to make sure everything’s okay. I’m going to the kitchen to make us some tea. Don’t freak out!”
