DORIS The money was too good to pass up, but more importantly, I couldn’t turn Arthur down when he was looking at me with such hope. “Okay, Arthur, I’ll do it.” His smile lit up the room. He stood up like he was going to hug me, but I motioned him back in his seat. "What about Cathy? Won't she be upset if she discovers the truth?" I asked. Arthur sighed, his gaze drifting into the distance. "Like I said, Cathy left when Mia was just a baby. Cathy is all about her music, and she hasn't visited or shown a significant interest in six years." “Wow.” “Yeah.” “She’s lucky she had you to take over.” “I’m lucky I ended up with Mia, so it all worked out. But Mia is getting older and now she needs a mother figure.” “Hmmn,” I said, and nodded to show I was listening. “I get that.” “This last surgery was really hard on her emotionally. Having her dad arou

 DORIS It was my first full week at Heritage Properties. They assigned me a mentor named Kate. That's more than Andrea's firm ever did for me. Kate was a great teacher. She let me follow her around all week. Because Heritage Properties mostly covered a different section of Manhattan and properties in a much higher price range, the commissions were bigger. It also meant I needed a newer and more upscale wardrobe. I called Nina and asked her to go shopping with me. Of course, the first words out of Nina’s mouth were, “How many times have you had sex with Mystery Man since I’ve seen you last? Is he as good in bed since the one time you paid him?” She frowned. “You’re not still paying him, are you?” I gave her a light, playful slap on the arm as we entered the clothing store Nina picked. “Keep your voice down.” “One,” I answered her, “Zero times.” I held up my fingers for each question I

DORIS The next day came, and Mia started nagging us again. “Mommy! I want to see you perform at the club. I want to see you sing,” she said.She said it over and over. She was relentless. Even when she wasn’t asking, the request floated in the air. There was no way I could bring her to The Strip that late at night. Still, she wanted it so much I wanted to fulfill her request. "Hey, sweet girl. I have an idea."  I had a solution after considering several options. I walked into the living room and said, "Mia," as she was absorbed in a coloring book. I've come up with a way you can see me sing.” She looked at me with wide eyes. "Seriously, Mommy? How?" "We can set up a live video feed from the club to our penthouse," I said. "You can watch me sing, but just for the first song. It will be like you're right there with me." Mia's cheeks glowed with happ

DORIS We were stranded, but of all the places to be stranded, this serene place on the side of the road that was completely surrounded by greenery that looked like an enchanted forest wasn't a bad place to be.Arthur looked at me. This was the soft and caring Arthur. "Let's use this time to get to know more about each other," Arthur said. "We really haven't had a chance to talk about things of substance. Perhaps you'll go first?"“What do you want to know?” I asked.“Everything,” he said.“Well," I said, "you already know that my mother died when I was 13,” I said. “Then I was adopted by a man named Noah, who turned out to be a great dad. That was wonderful for me because I never knew my dad. He left before I was born.” “On my mother's side, I had a great aunt, and she had a cottage up in the woods by Buffalo. My mother and I visited a few times. She was a really nice lady.”“I probably would have gone to stay with her after my mother died, but she was old and frail, and didn't thin

DORISI didn’t know whether or not to be embarrassed that I just came all over Arthur’s fingers. I decided not to be. He was a master.I leaned against his chest. Boneless.“So, you like that,” Arthur asked, smug pride in his voice.“Meh,” I joked. “Not sure. Maybe we need to try again so I can really be sure.”"Oh, we're going to try again, alright," he said, his voice dark with commanding promise.I shivered.He gripped my ass firmly.Then everything was a blur when he pulled his pants down, and carefully lowered me onto his hardness. I was so full with pleasure. He waited, teeth grinding together firmly with his barely held back patience as I took a moment to adjust.Arthur moved, just the tiniest bit.It was like slipping into an alternate reality of stars and rain and magic.“Ride me, Doris. Doris. Ride me like there’s no tomorrow.”So I did. Arthur took control, his strong hands on my hips, setting the pace to a rhythm only he could hear.Arthur thrust up into me, harder and har
