My heart rate began to speed up as I stood admiring her long auburn legs strut slowly across the natural wood floorboards and across towards the black grand piano situated in the middle of the large bright open room. I licked my lips as I stared at her God given assets. The one thing that was guaranteed to make me weak. Her peach was so juicy and perky. I just wanted to go over there and tap it! She turned around in her grey designer business suit seductively, like she knew I was undressing her with my eyes. Her six inch heels tapped to the rhythm of the palpitations that were forming in my manhood. She was the epitome of a Spanish beauty. She turned back towards the large French windows tossing her long curly jet black hair and admiring the view. I was admiring it too, but not the same view she expected me too! I walked towards her, the smell of her strong overpowering perfume filling the air, inviting every thing in her surroundings.
“It’s wonderful isn’t it?”
“Yes it is indeed. It would be great with a huge white Italian sofa right here” She explained while pointing her smooth perfectly manicured hand towards the empty space by the stainless steel designer fireplace.
Her Porte Rican roots exposed through her words as she spoke, unknowingly allowing her accent to slowly turn me on. I tried to stay focus and not let her beauty distract me. She continued to parade around the large open plan converted penthouse, ensuring that she got a good feel of the large welcoming space. Anticipation was forming in my stomach. I really needed to close this deal. I had been trying for months without any luck to secure something. I knew buying this property would be a huge risk and now I was starting to feel the strain and the recent economical downfall was not helping. Isabella was the wife of a rich business man who had made his fortune on the import and export trade. The couple were relocating to London for a year and wanted to find the perfect home to rent in the right location. I was grateful to Steve when he gave me the link, and I was even more grateful when I saw how beautiful she actually was. A little bit of flirting and I could close this deal tonight I thought. The view across the Thames was perfect this evening, complimented by the moon which reflected off the dark still water. Hopefully this will help sell itself. Isabella slowly walked around the room, gliding her hands across the walls delicately as she did. As I followed slowly behind her she began asking various questions about decorating the space and having a pet, which I was reluctant about. I hated the smell of animals. She stopped at the large master bedroom. Admiring the large white room, she smiled. I looked on hopeful as she took in all the spender of the room, happy with the expensive tasteful furniture which I had actually purchased cheap at the expensive of the unfortunate family whose home was becoming repossessed. Isabella flicked her long hair and walked over to the un-suite bathroom, elated by the impressive marble walk in shower, which looked like it belonged on MTV cribs.
“Wow, it is magnificent”
“Yes. It was designed by Randolf Dubair” I bragged.
“You must be joking me! He designs all the bathrooms for the celebs!”
“I know. He is actually a personal friend of mine” I lied, saying a silent prayer in my head thanking Steve again for the hook up.
I watched Isabella who was clearly impressed by the apartment, fully admiring the beauty of it and all my hard work. I stopped in mid sentence, shocked at what was happening before my eyes. Isabella was sliding out of her heels and proceeded by taking off her expensive designer grey blazer, then slowly unbuttoned her red chiffon blouse. I didn’t know what to do, whether to turn away or join in. What was she really doing! She looked at me and smiled, biting her luscious red glossy lips as she shimmered out of her skirt exposing her little black lace Victoria Secrets. My manhood gave in and instantly rose to attention. Her body was as perfect as I imagined.
“Join me” She said in a casual tone.
She unclipped her bra and let her firm breasts touch the crisp warm air, her nipples rising to the occasion. She giggled like a little naughty school girl and stepped into the shower, turning on the taps to fill the space with hot seductive steam. I gazed on, watching the water fall on her flawless firm youthful skin, wetting her once curly bouncing black hair. I closed my eyes. I know I shouldn’t, Leyah would kill me, but I’m not doing any harm! I need to close this deal. I watched my reflection fade out in the mirror as the steam overpowered the room. Talking myself out of the guilt I undid my tie and unbuttoned my blue shirt. Isabella turned and exposed another cheeky grin, calling me ‘Papi’ in her sexy accent while she bit her finger. Right then, at that moment all my senses drifted away… She stepped out the shower and pulled me in, just as my trousers and Calvin Klein’s dropped to the floor. She began kissing me passionately and feeling my firm nakedness. I knew this was wrong, but it was just too good to say no!
I closed the heavy door to her white Bentley Continental and watched her reapply her lipstick before driving off out the security gates and into the evening traffic. Damn, that woman is danger! I shook my head and laughed at the session we had just shared in the shower. I didn’t sleep with her, no I wouldn’t go that far. Especially with no protection but she did give me one hell of a sucking. That whole feeling of being in the shower with someone’s smooth lips on your pride and joy was intoxicating! She damn had some skills. Her husband must surely be a happy man!
I walked over to my Range Rover and jumped inside. Wiping my chin, I just couldn’t comprehend what just happened. I looked in the vanity mirror and rubbed my stubble, while smiling to myself happy at my achievement. At least she signed the paperwork to let the property. I had got what I came here for and more! Guilt started to wear on my conscious, how could I allow myself to walk on the dark side again. I had done so well... My smirk faded and my thoughts drifted back to Leyah and how I had just betrayed her trust again. In an attempt to make myself feel better I dialled the memorable number and waited for the voice I loved to answer…
“Hi baby. How did it go?”
“I closed the deal Leah. I told you I would do it. I knew today was the day!”
“Oh baby, that’s great. I knew you would”
I leaned back on the comfort of my driver seat and listened to her serene voice. She was my rock. I put her through so much hurt and pain in the past and she was still here. She was here by my side supporting me, encouraging me and helping me live my dream. I needed her in my life. Yeah I still do wrong, but today was the worst I have done since we have been back together. I mean, I’ve flirted with other women and taken numbers, but that’s it! I never cheated. She would definitely leave me for good if she ever found out. But she won’t. It was a bit of harmless fun. Something which will never get mentioned again… well after I tell Smithy.
“Don’t bother to cook baby. Were going out to eat, its time to celebrate. Where’s Asia?”
“I haven’t collected her from nursery as yet”
“Well don’t bother, stay at home and put your feet up. I’m going to collect her and then we’ll all go out”
“Okay baby. See you soon. Love you”
“Love you too”
I hung up the phone, feeling better about my transgression. I had a woman that loved me and I loved her too.
I pushed my key through the door, and took a deep breath. My clothes were a little wrinkled from where I threw them on the floor of the bathroom, but it was not noticeable. Well I hope not! I sniffed the collar and breast of my jacket… at least I didn’t smell of Isabella’s expensive perfume. I nodded to myself acknowledging my smart decision to keep a bottle of costly aftershave in the glove compartment of my car. At least that would definitely take any un-noticeable lingering smells away.
“Baby where’s Asia?” Leyah asked as she rushed over and gave me a huge hug and one of her lingering passionate kisses which I always missed. I held her tight by her small waist through her hugging cotton navy dress as we shared the renewed love which we had for one another, inhaling her sent. Leyah stepped back abruptly, startling my composure before my mind started racing. I hope she hadn’t suspected that I had been up to no good. My heart quickly began racing and unwilling beads of sweat formed on my brow as she looked at me intensely. Suspiciously. Trying to out stare her glare I broke the awkward silence and answered her question.
“I decided to come and collect you first. I just couldn’t wait to see you!” I said convincingly, desperately trying to mask my guilt. I was no longer good at being the master of deceit. I had torn up that card two years ago!
“Awww. Why what have you done?” She said cautiously, changing her menacing stare into a smile while looking me up in my eyes comically.
“Why do you always think the worst of me? I needed to see you because I feel good about this deal. Now we can definitely book that holiday to Dubai. This has taken a lot off my shoulders. Things are looking up Leah Leah”
I held her and swung her around the front room. I was glad that she decided to move into my house. I mean this is what I always intended, to raise my family in this house. Shantel was only a pit stop. Of course Leyah made me redecorate so that she could put her ‘stamp’ on the place and most of the furniture had to go, especially the bed! But I was happy. I loved the feeling of coming home to my family. Something which I always admired, now I was actually able to embrace it. All I need to do was work on my addiction.
I walked up into the bedroom to come out of my deceitful clothes and take a shower to wash all the traces of my dishonesty away. I knew I was playing with fire and I did not want to get burnt.
“Baby do you want a drink?” Leyah shouted into the room.
“Nah, but I wouldn’t mind you joining me”
Before I could blink her naked body was strutting towards me with two glasses of champagne in her hands. I looked on and thought to myself why would I even want to stray? My woman was perfect. She joined me in the shower as the panes steamed up amongst our passionate love-making. I held onto her as tight as I could and released my love from within. Smelling her coconut hair oil I thought to myself, why did I have to suffer from this disease? Why did I cheat on the one woman I loved more than life it self?
We sat at one of the best tables in our favourite Italian restaurants up in the city and enjoyed the lifestyle which I worked so hard to achieve. The food in here was pricey but well worth it, because it was cooked and presented with perfection. The whole surrounding just poured out perfection. The whole theme was a gold mystical ancient renaissance which beamed culture. I had become friends with the owner, who I once met at one of Shantel’s father’s dinner parties. My plan worked out nicely. I had made so many contacts during my relationship with Shantel, that when we broke up it was impossible for her to try and ruin my associations, they were just too established, and boy did she try. I wasn’t even amazed at her attempts to sabotage my empire. I just knew that it was inevitable what a woman scorned would do!
I sat and toasted to the future with Leyah. I had finally let out the Riverside apartment and I was ready to cash in on my investment. If everything went according to plan I would be able to put a rock on Leyah’s hand next month and then finalise my family forever. Leaving the playing behind for good.
