Oh, I am listening, Kain… but I can’t look at you after what I did last night. I’m too ashamed of myself. “Y-yes, Mister Jones,” I reply, hoping he doesn’t hear the anxious feelings of guilt in my voice. Today we’ve spent the day preparing for tonight. It isn’t a big party, but Kain says that it’ll be my first journey into the life of a Companion, so I have to be dressed and ready for the occasion.
I dare a sneaky glance in Kain’s direction. He is dressed to impress, as am I in my new outfit that he had brought me a couple of weeks ago. He looks irresistible and I have no doubts women are going to swarm him at this party. His outfit easily shows off his well-defined muscles and form. I quickly look away again before my eyes wander down to his other parts.
“Good,” Kain’s voice continues a

This gathering was bigger than I ever could have imagined. Kain had told me it wouldn’t be that big of a deal, but if this wasn’t the biggest party, then I fear knowing what one of those larger gatherings is like! Maybe by the time I get to go to one, I’ll have grown accustomed to seeing so many suits in one place. For now, I can’t help but gawk at the whole thing before me. Bright dazzling chandeliers hang down above us, while enormous fountains of melted chocolate sit on tables surrounded by a buffet of food. Servers in cute outfits walk around carrying alcoholic drinks, offering them to whoever wants a drink, though there are also non-alcoholic drinks being served too. I feel Kain’s hand land on my shoulder, which sends a warm feeling deep down in my gut. I glance up at him and he offers me a swift but reassuring smile. “Stay by my side for a while. Use my name to promote yourself. It shall help,” he says quietly so that no one else can hear

It doesn’t take me long to find a couple of girls that look like they might enjoy my company. They’re not companions, but they belong in the entertainment industry too. They’re background dancers, so no one is too important that I’ll step on any toes by trying to court them. Seeing as Kain has been teaching me some dance moves, we have a few things in common to talk about, which helps me find an opening topic. Outside of dancing, however, I’m not sure how much I want to get to know these girls. They’re nice enough, but I have zero interest in having any kind of affair with them. I wonder if they were hoping for that when I came up to them? Or maybe they’re glad that I’m not even talking about that kind of offer? It’s hard to tell since everyone seems to hide something tonight. I noticed at first with that woman CEO but now I am seeing it everywhere I look. Bright cheerful smiles but glares whenever a back is turned… longing looks sent to those

Another party, another night of enjoying the attention of others. This time, however, I am a little more upbeat about the entire process. Drake’s help for the first party seems to have eased me into the process more. I understand now why Kain pointed out to join Drake that night. Even Skyler helped me a few days later, giving me some pointers on how to impress girls without coming across as creepy or desperate.This time, however, it is just our company here, as they hired us to entertain some special guests. Already Skyler has several men fawning over her, as do some others Kain brought here with us. I’m once more stuck beside Kain, but not alone. Several women are showering Kain with love and affection while a couple speaks with me.It has become common gossip now that Kain takes me everywhere. This little nugget of information seems to have sparked more interest in me, though I am not surprised at all. I knew right away that people

The sound of gentle waves lashing at the shore and the smell of summer trees fill my senses as I look upon the building before me in awe. This place is more of a resort for relaxing in my opinion, but apparently, we’re here for work and not a vacation. I have always known about the oasis of Krusas city, but I never dared to think I’d ever come near it. It is larger than any single body of water I have ever seen. There are small man-made places like fountains, but this is all-natural and a very popular spot for the wealthy.To make sure we’re not late for this meeting, Drake has brought all of our things to our rooms while Kain and I head straight to work. Kain gave him the rest of the day off, as this place has its own security and people aren’t free to come and go without proof that they are granted access to the building.“Who are we going to see, Mister Jones?” I ask Kain as I try to keep my focus. Though th

Joe led me through the hallways until we reached a room guarded by two powerful men on either side of the door. They had headsets on their head so that they could pass messages easily between themselves and whoever was on the other end. They were also wearing body armour and bulletproof vests for added protection. The CEO made sure that his daughter was adequately protected. They give Joe and me a wary glance before opening the doors to the room within. Before I can even process what is going on, I find myself tackled into a tight hug by someone not much smaller than myself. I just about manage to keep my balance as I blink in shock. This young woman isn’t a child at all, yet the way the CEO spoke of her seemed to imply she was. “I’m so glad you could come!” Her excited voice rings out as I try to process the whole thing in my mind. As I am trying to place who this girl is, she continues in her overly cheerful tone, “when

“How did things go?” Kain’s voice brings me back to the conversation as we drive home. Jane’s questions, along with Skyler’s when I first started, keep going through my mind. I’m no more aware of Kain’s plans for me now than I was back then. Even with him opening up to me and no longer offering me harsh or sarcastic remarks, he hasn’t told me why he wants to train me personally when he has no reason to do so.“They went fine,” I replied. I look out the window of the car for a moment, lost in my thoughts. I know Kain wants to know everything, especially if I think we can use Jane to help both of our positions, but I just don’t know what to tell him. There’s the truth, which he may not be happy with, or in a more likely situation. He wants to use her curiosity about him and me, to get further into her father’s business and win them over.If that is the case, Jane would be

Another month, and another trip out with the company. At this point, I am getting used to all the outings I take part in as a Companion. Although my anxiety over Kain and his reasoning have not vanished, I have come to terms with the fact that he has my best interest behind all of what he does. My fanbase has grown little by little, and Kain has fed me some tales to tell Jane to get her to spread my name among her group of friends and interested parties.So far, all anyone knows is that I will be worth the wait when all is revealed. That bit of information had Jane on the edge of her seat. Knowing that Kain has something big planned for me, and she was the first to be made aware of it? That gained her support, as she now knows she’ll be the first one to get the information from us. I understand why she wanted to know now. Her mother’s company is all about reporting the latest news about rising stars. I knew her father’s job was marketi

As I make my way outside, I take in a nice breath of fresh air. I won’t be able to slip off as easily as this in the future, so I want to make the most of my freedom while I can now. Everyone inside is still enjoying themselves since none of us has to work for our supper tonight. We still need to mind our manners, but everyone is getting drunk and having a good time. Except for me. I’m not unhappy with my progress, but I wanted to act or sing. So far, I have done none of that outside of training. Kain says it might be requested from fans, but so far that hasn’t happened. To say I am disappointed would be an understatement. Still, I put my trust and faith in Kain, so I have to remind myself that this will all pay off in the end. I can’t let Wulf’s words bother me. I place my hands on the railing of the balcony that leans over the hotel’s garden below. It is too dark to see much of anything out past a certain point, but the fountain is easily spo

A year has passed since everything happened and although a lot has changed, things have also stayed the same. I’ve become well known for my musical skills now, but Kain has caved in and allowed me to perform in a few acting roles. He has no more excuses to keep me to himself, outside of him mentoring me, as I have already proven I am one of the best Lotus Pond Entertainment has. However, I still have a long way to go before I am as popular as Kain used to be, so my promotion to the Face of the Company is still a long way off. Today, however, is the day Kain finally tells the entire world publicly about his plans for the company and me in particular. I have never felt so nervous and anxious as I do right now at this extravagant press conference. Out of all of my training, all of my public appearances, nothing has been so hyped up as this moment. It feels like everyone in the world is watching us right now, and they probably are!

Rose’s home is a place I never expected to find myself in, yet here I am with Kain, Drake, Rhiana, and even Wulf. I never thought I’d be happy to see him, but he has become a good friend, probably closer to me than Skyler, because he at least knows everything now, and I can trust him to keep it a secret. One day, I want to fill Skyler in too, but until Kain is ready to come out to the rest of the world, that isn’t an option. Wulf, much like Kain, prefers men but has openly flirted with women, to the point of being seen as a womanizer. The two have much in common but are very different people. I wish I could help Wulf find peace with himself over whoever hurt him, but all I can do is to be his friend and hope that’s enough. “You’re staring at me, Liam,” Wulf teases playfully, as he spots me looking in his direction. I blush faintly and look away. I don’t need him flirting with me while Kain is here! “S-sorry,” I mumble, looking at my lap

My whole body hurts from last night. There isn’t a part of me that doesn’t hurt. Even with Kain being overly gentle and preparing me beforehand, I still hurt. However, I wouldn’t change last night for anything. It was as perfect as things could have been. He wasn’t in one of his odd moods where he wanted to do strange things, instead, he was all gentle and loving towards me. Despite the aches I am in, I agreed to meet up with Wulf. After all, me not going back to his last night seemed to have worried him, even though he had received my text to tell him I would be safe. Besides, I probably should let him know that I’ve made up with the person who I like. Thankfully, Wulf agreed to meet me somewhere nearby and Kain has gone to work so that I do not have to worry about him getting jealous or clingy in front of Wulf. We should keep our make-up private until we’ve seen Malak Rose again. Once we’ve gotten him to back off, then

As soon as we get back to Kain’s apartment, his familiar scent fills my nose. I make sure Wulf knows I won’t be back tonight, as making him worry wouldn’t be fair at all. We may have started on the wrong foot, but he has become a friend during this entire ordeal. I’ve missed this place more than I thought I might, but I don’t get the chance to think much about our time apart as I find my back is pushed against the wall as soon as we lock the door behind us. Kain’s lips slam against mine, kissing me desperately. I can’t help but moan into his lips and wrap my arms around his neck. I’ve missed this so much that it hurts. I feel Kain’s hands lower down to my legs and hoist me up, causing my legs to wrap around his hips automatically. He breaks the kiss for a moment to mumble, “never leave me again, Liam. I can’t live without you at my side. These last few days have been awful.” I wiggle my nose at him in mock annoyan

Joy overflowed through my whole body, as everything I had wondered about Rhiana was confirmed by the two sitting across from me. She was indeed someone who preferred other women, and in fact, was planning on marrying her girlfriend of several years. “I started working here, just to get away from the hustle and bustle of a rich life, and to avoid my father. He often tries to drag me into his social parties to meet people,” Rhiana complained with a roll of her eyes. “This isn’t a glamorous life, but there are many people who love to spend cash on things they can’t touch, so I’m happy to get this sense of freedom.” “Your father is as old as mine. He should have retired a long time ago,” Kain says, shaking his head. He then takes another sip of his drink and then adds, “but why drag me involved in all this? Does he have money troubles?” “No, nothing like that. It might be my fault for avoiding this co

“Do you really hate me so much now?” The question Kain proposed to me had my heart pounding and aching so much that I felt dizzy and sick. Of course, I didn’t hate Kain! The problem wasn’t because I hated him, quite the opposite in fact! It was because I loved him so deeply, so hard, that it hurts to even see his face or hear his voice. “Sir, that isn’t helping at all. You’re just making him feel even more afraid,” Drake chided softly. “You don’t hate the boss, do you, Liam?” He then asked, his voice much softer. I shook my head slowly but refused to come out of my scrunched up position on the padded bench of the booth. It was a rather awkward position, but I couldn’t bring myself to look at anything around me. A sigh escaped Kain’s lips. It sounded like it relieved him to know I didn’t hate him. “Then you will not quit, right?” His question made me angry, but before I could shoot him a glare, he continued to say,

The flicker of the streetlight above my head is grinding my gears. I almost want to yell at the top of my voice for someone to come and fix the broken thing, but I don’t. I’ve already made a fool of myself once today, no reason to make such a thing known to the public too! I don’t know why Drake wanted to meet me here, of all places, but I can tell that this isn’t one of his usual hangouts. At least, none that he has ever taken me to before. The area is quite a distance away from where we work, to where I think we might even be closer to the Outskirts than anywhere near the city centre. The buildings are not quite falling apart, but they’ve certainly seen better days. That includes the annoying streetlight. Still, despite the almost rundown appearance, many people seem to come to this place. The sign gave little away about the type of hangout it was. All I could tell was that they named it, ‘The Moist Pussy’. I thought it was an odd nam

It has been almost a whole week now since I last saw Kain in person. It almost feels like he is avoiding me deliberately, much like I was doing to him. However, regardless if I am avoiding him or not, I can’t help but get even angrier at him for evading me for this long! Call me a hypocrite, but I don’t care at this point. He is such a jerk-face! I vow to myself, as soon as I see him, I am going to give him a piece of my mind! Maybe I’ll even go to his office and scold him! That’s an idea! However… the moment I get to his floor, I hesitate. I’m the one who ran out on him, crying no less. Now that I can see his office door, my anxiety has me unable to take another step forwards. What if he has already moved on and stopped caring about me? What if he has already met with this woman and she is all over him and I disturb them in the middle of something!? I can’t do this! I shake my head and turn around, darting back t
