CARTER’S POV
Thinking of the little stripper that took the other day, I took long drag while I smiled as I felt the immediate effect slamming against my brain. Life was indeed good. One of the blonds behind me – sherry, or something like that, snaked a hand across my shoulder, curving her thumb, and attempting to take a sniffer of my product. I smacked her hand, and laughed when she whelped. "Sorry Sherry. Only good girls get this stuff. You have to prove yourself first.” I watched as a look of pain entered her eyes, and I got easily annoyed. These whores were the same. Always getting hurt for stupid reasons. The whore turned her eyes up to mine, batting her fake lashes. “I’m Sharon, not Sherry.” I hissed, getting annoyed. “Well Shay, I’m already bored with you, leave my mansion now.” Tears immediately filled the whore’s eyes as I called my guards to throw her out. They didn’t even let her put on her clothes, and I had to laugh as I watched them throw her out naked – then I also asked them to throw out the other blond in the room, just for the fun of watching her naked, and begging while she got thrown out. I sighed when the fun was all over. I would have wanted to see more though, but I had just five girls left, and if I had all the girls thrown out, I’d have to go looking for a new set of girls and that would be stressful. The ones left looked at me now, with fear in their eyes. They too were without clothes, and they knew what could happen to them. Also, getting thrown out meant no money. I wasn’t even afraid of lawsuits, with the money in my family, I could buy an entire law firm if I wanted to – and then I’d buy the judge. "You there.” I commanded, pointing at one of the girls sitting at my feet. “What’s your name?” She was a ginger haired beauty with a very lovely complexion, and long lashes that were natural. If I looked at her the right way, I could pretend she was innocent, that I was the only guy she had ever been with, but the truth was that she was a whore, and by the time I was done with her, she’d probably find the next rich guy she could get. "Deidra.” She replied simply, getting on all fours and crawling closer. I caught her jaw in my hand and dragged her head up to meet mine. Her lips tasted of a cheap bubble gum, and her mouth, though experienced, seemed tentative, unsure. I heard a whimper escape her breath as I deepened the kiss. Fisting my hand in her hair, I pulled her head away from mine. I skilled when I saw her wince. Her lips were also swollen from my kisses – good. There should be proof that I’d touched her, maybe I should even mark this one, a little reminder that she was one of the whores I’ve used. Debby dropped her lashes. “I can also do other things with my mouth,” she said in a low seductive voice, and I let a smile curve at my lips. "Go ahead then” I allowed, letting my hand trail down her lush soft body, while the other girls rubbed my back, my feet, my hair, seeking for attention. I grabbed one of them, and devoured her lips – she was a better kisser than little miss ginger head, I was just about to get busy with her when the door flew open, and I saw my father, Marvin Blaine staring angrily at me. Gosh, I tend to loose my cool whenever I see that man. "Ladies, it’s time to go,” he said calmly, very calmly, but the girls were already scrambling out. If the rumors about the formidable billionaire, Marvin Blane were true – and they were, then the girls knew he could easily make them all disappear, and everyone would be too scared to ask a single thing. Marvin Blane was also loved by the people, people who were intimidated into voting in only his candidates into seats of power, and these candidates were very loyal to their source, my father when they got into power. My father was as much feared as he was loved, and he’d do anything to keep it that way. I watched the girls put on their clothes, till they were all clothed, but the one called D-something, the ginger head was still nude, her dress had probably gotten lost somewhere. I smiled. “Not you sweetheart. I want to see you walk out of here nude.” My father shook his head, and I could see the anger intensify in his eyes, but he did not counter my command. We both had an unspoken rule of not appearing to have any disagreement in front of anyone. "Beautiful girl, don’t you think Dad?” I asked nonchalantly, knowing I was only angering him the more. “I should have sent her up to you –” "Cut it Carter! What’s wrong with you? Elections are only in a months time, and your antics could cost us our candidate –” "Our? You mean your. Your candidate Dad. All this has been your plan all along, not mine.” The anger was blazing in his eyes now, but he still remained calm. “Yes Carter. Mine. My candidate has never lost before, I cannot begin to lose my credibility now, so I have decided. You would tidy up your act or – “ "Or what Marvin?” I asked, knowing I would not like the reply. "Or you are disinherited. In fact, effective from today, you are disinherited – until you have proven to be ruthless, and yet cunning, to be heartless, and yet able to deceive gullible people.” And how would I prove that?” I shouted, already angry. My father smiled. “It’s easy. Pick a girl, not just any girl, I want an innocent, kind, good hearted, vulnerable girl, not all these whores around. Get her to fall in love with you, then you break her heart in a way that would leave her completely broken.” I already liked the idea of that. “What has this got to do with anything though?” I had to ask. Marvin shrugged. “To make that kind of girl fall in love with you, you’d have to buy her flowers, to pretend that you really care about her. You’d have to learn how to be a nice guy while plotting to break her. If you are successful, then I know you’re ready to take in my multi-trillion dollar enterprise. This empire was built on ruthlessness, not carelessness.” "You are utterly impossible dad,” I said to him, rolling my eyes over in disdain. "You will realize how serious I am, when I officially announce someone’s as my heir,” My father replied coldly as I watched him turn and leave, while being sure he was playing some cruel game on me. I wouldn’t put that past his twisted mind. Where on earth was I supposed to find an innocent girl? Every girl around was as run through as a worn shoe. I had better start investing my own money and planning further on acquiring more of my personal properties. Innocent, kind, vulnerable… where was I going to find such a girl in this time of generation! Out of frustration, I took my car keys from the center table and headed for my nightclub.CARTER’S POVGetting to the club, I downed a shot of whiskey as I thought endlessly of my father’s word to me. Then all of a sudden, I noticed Alvira was no where to be found.For no reason, I became worried and began searching for her with a scattered gaze."Where is the new stripper girl?” I asked one of the stripper lady in nude."I don’t know who you speak of Mr. Carter,” she responded and with a disdain look, I permitted her to leave without a word to her.It’s rather stranger getting worried about a common stripper girl but something about her seem different.Was it her first time doing this job?Her lips tasted so innocent and without experience.All of these thoughts kept raging in my head. But then I remembered my father’s words to me."Isn’t this a blessings in disguise?” I murmured silently, lost in my thoughts. I mean, my father had asked me to find an innocent, vulnerable girl, make her love me, and then break her heart brutally.Making little Alvira my lab rat in gettin
ALVIRA'S POVI felt the slight shivers that racked my body begin to increase. I tried to stop my teeth from chattering together by biting down hard at my lower lip till I felt blood trickled down my lip.Tears filled my eyes. I was such a weirdo. Carter was all gentleness now, smiling at me, and asking polite little questions, but I could hardly answer him. No matter how much I tried to, my teeth could not just stop. He reached out a hand gently and took mine that was balled in a tight fist. "Alvira look at me,” he commanded, but there was a gentleness in his voice. Unwittingly, I found myself staring into his intimidating jet-black eyes."Do you want me to hold you?” He asked, and if the offer was unusual, the look in his eyes showed he knew what I needed, even before I needed it.Right now, I did need a hug badly, but I was afraid of how my body would react to his if I let him hold me again. I found myself nodding, against my better judgement.I expected Carter to get up, and w
CARTER’S POV I drew in a breath as I heard my phone ring, and my father’s name appear on the screen. I was surprised to notice I didn’t look forward to talking to him. As much as I hated my father, I had always enjoyed talking with him, his conversations proved challenging. I didn’t care to examine the reason why I did not want to speak with him today, but it probably had something to do with damaging the innocence that shone through a certain per of green eyes. It was easy, just too easy, and because of how easy it was, I felt something I had never felt before, guilt. "You’ve done some things I’m proud of Carter.” My father started as soon as I picked the call. In the past, I would have been thrilled to hear he was proud of me, but now, I was starting not to care. "You found just the right girl. What’s her name again – Alexa – Alina?” "Alvira.” I snapped, trying my best to figure out what my father was playing at before he struck his blow. I always failed at that. Somehow, M
ALVIRA's povI never comprehended how rapidly someone could infiltrate every aspect of your existence, weaving themselves into your every thought, emotion, and pulse. Carter did that to me, and to this day, I can not determine if it was magic or madness. Whether by his side or not, his influence dominated every moment, immersing me in a realm I had never envisioned. Despite the excitement, there was a subtle sense of unease present. It was an unspoken heaviness that felt like a looming storm.The initial indication of that stress appeared on a peaceful evening stroll. We had recently departed from a charming small eatery, the type that seemed secluded, secure. Carter and I strolled next to each other down a street bordered by trees, his hand occasionally brushing against mine. He appeared deeply engrossed in his thoughts, his typical calm attitude now replaced by a sense of restraint, as if he was concealing a feeling unique to him.Suddenly, he inquired, "Have you ever pondered on
CARTER's povIt was always there, her, Alvira, in my head, occupying my thoughts. She always slipped in without my knowledge, staying longer than I had expected. But I pushed the thoughts of that away, telling myself that it was because I was on a mission with her that was why I was always thinking of her. Her green eyes, innocent and expressive, bothered me.I remembered how I felt everything I looked into those eyes. They were always innocent, like a window into something pure, and something that would soon be broken. The uncertainty drew me in, there was the thrill of watching as she broke bit by bit in my hands, on her knees at my mercy, completely used. Somehow, that stirred something deep and unexpected within me.As our last meeting played in my mind, I reached for my coffee. I took a sip of the dark bitter liquid as my mind wandered to how she had quickly opened up to me, seeking comfort while contemplating whether to trust me or not. It was amusing that she thought that s
ALVIRA’S POV I shivered as the evenings cool breeze chilled my bare arms. I was going to work in a night club, for the first time in my life. This was would even be my first time of being in a nightclub, but I really needed the money, my friend – the only person I had in the world, Clarissa, was sick, and I needed money for her treatment. She had fought me over going to work at a night club, not minding that she was the one that was sick, and she was the one that needed the money. According to her, the nightclub was no place for an innocent girl like me. But, heaven knows I had no other choice other than being a stripper. However, age had helped me dress. Helping me strap my red lacy push up bra that made my boobs jut out in a way that really embarrassed me, making me blush. I was wearing a very short skirt, and fishnet garters that even made me feel more exposed, yet Clarissa had taken one look at me, and said I still looked ‘too innocent’ My work at the club, as the manager ex
ALVIRA’S POVI could feel the tears fall freely now as I got home, despite the fact, I enjoyed everything that happened between Carter and I at the night club.But, the memories from three years ago came crashing in, harder, stronger. I had been outside, trying to get to my rundown home in an equally run down neighborhood quickly before the heavy rain that was brewing came pouring down, and I decided to go through an alley that was a short cut. I could still remember the sound of the rain, the smell of wet pavement, cigarettes, and dirt as powerful arms held me down, hurting me, violating my body. He had kissed me, and his mouth had tasted vile, making me feel like gaging, but I suppressed the urge to throw up. I needed my mouth to breathe, as my nostrils did not seem to get enough air. I shivered, then hugged myself as I finally got to my house. That had been three years ago, and in another neighborhood, another state – so why did I still remember that night so vividly immediate
