Tam’s heart felt as if it had sunk to her feet. She wanted to cry and scream at the same time or at the very least run over to Nicki and kick her ass for taking her man. Nicki had been one of the women who made comments about all the time Tam had spent with Seamus. And to see him go off with her was like a dagger to her very being. She did her best to put on a brave face, even when she noticed several pairs of eyes looking in her direction when he’d rejected her. She could practically feel the glee coming from some of the hostesses. It hurt like hell but she managed to hold back the tears that briefly stung her eyes.
When Natalia had sauntered over to where Tam stood with a look of smug satisfaction on her face she wasn’t in the mood to hear an “I told you so.” The very last thing she wanted was to entertain another client but if she didn’t it would look as if she was hung up on Seamus. Her pride got in the way and she accepted.
Tam was given a key to one of the private rooms. When she walked in, it seemed normal enough. The setup was like any typical hotel room but nicer. She took a look around and noticed a box in the corner full of equipment. There were sex toys and cuffs. It wasn’t anything out of the ordinary. She’d been told that some clients were more playful than others. But as she dug deeper into the box, she found whips and paddles, nipple clamps and rope. This was something she definitely wasn’t into but knowing she had the right to refuse any act she didn’t feel comfortable with gave her some measure of assurance.
All she knew about the client was that his name was Brian and he liked to take charge. Tam wasn’t exactly sure what that meant since it could be interpreted in so many different ways. After all, Seamus was a very take charge kind of man, especially in the bedroom. She instantly shook all thoughts of that blood-eyed Irishman from her mind. She figured that the less she thought about him, the sooner her heart could heal.
When Brian showed up, she was surprised to see that she didn’t have anything to worry about. He was a slender, slightly balding man of average height. With his mousy brown hair and thick glasses, Tam was certain that if she ever saw this man on the street and was asked to describe him, she doubted she would have been able to. He was so nondescript that there was nothing she could really discern from him by looks alone. While he seemed harmless enough, it was clear Natalia had lied about his looks.
His greeting had been friendly enough and she offered him a drink from the mini bar as she’d been trained to do. He declined and then took off his glasses and put them in his pocket. She found it strange that he had no trouble seeing her considering how thick they were. Without them, she noticed that one of his eyes was brown and the other green. She’d heard that people could have two different colored eyes, but she’d never seen it in person. It gave him a more distinct look which made her wonder if the glasses were used to hide something so noticeable.
“I’m not interested in small talk. Take off your clothes and get on the bed.”
Alarm bells went off in her head. She’d had a bad feeling about this situation from the beginning but now she knew something was off, especially when he didn’t wait to see if she followed his instructions, choosing instead to go to the box of toys.
Tam had realized then that she couldn’t go through with this. “Uh, Brian, I think it may be best if we cancel this session. I just don’t think I can entertain you up to the standards you’re probably accustomed to. I can ask Natalia to send someone else to your liking—”
He turned around with a riding crop in hand and a sinister smile. “Oh, but I think you’ll do just fine my dear. You’re trembling. I like that.”
That was when Tam realized she was in trouble and how she’d wound up in this predicament. She raced to the door, but Brian was fast. He gripped her by the arm and spun her around to face him. He was surprisingly strong for such a slight man.
“You whores like to play hard-to-get but I know how you like it. You want a man to show you who the boss is, especially your kind. You’re just begging to be told what to do.”
“Not only is that sexist and racist, but I doubt you know what any woman wants.” She didn’t care if he was an important client according to Natalia, she wasn’t going to allow him to disrespect her.
