All Chapters of A Pound Of Flesh : Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Geo had been two years, three months, one week, and five days without the companionship or touch of the opposite sex. It wasn't because he didn't enjoy the touch of a woman. It was more because he was simply too busy and felt like a lady deserved her lover's full attention, and the past few years he was unable to do that. He never got home at a decent time, midnight was usually an early night for him. He went to bed even later working on the next takeover or business deal. What woman would want to be a part of his hectic life? Before becoming CEO he had known his father encouraged in-house relationships. He had dated three of his secretaries while he was married to Geo's mother. Once Geo was in charge he put a stop to it. He had replaced all the supervisors his father had hired except for one. Johnny DelMonte. He

It had taken Geo nine months just to convince his father and another three, along with a promise not to fire any of the women who worked there. His father had explained that the hotel was not just a brothel but also a safe haven for the women. They would be able to have a stable, legitimate income while helping themselves stay off the streets. By keeping his promise to his father, he had gotten the attention of non-profit organizations geared toward helping sex workers. They all wanted to apply his business model so they could help the sex workers in their community. Eventually making it nationwide. He hadn't really thought about it like the life-transforming initiative it was. He had thought he was just keeping a promise to his father, and in the process he ended up helping women get back in the mainstream workforce, providing them stable income so that they were f

  It all made sense now. The expensive gift bags. The quirky questions. Carolina felt like a fool. All this time, she had thought this interview was for a traditional companion position, not a high priced hooker.  “I...I don’t know if I would be… er...primal enough for you.” “Really?” He smirked at her flustered response. She blushed when he looked her in the eyes with an intensity she hadn't felt. Her heart raced.  He was so handsome and sexy. He was nothing she had ever experienced in life. Russ Evers was an amateur in looks and style when compared to him. She could also tell he was experienced in bed.  “As my companion, I am willing to pay you $150,000 upfront. Plus all of your living expen

  Carolina saw her reflection on the reflective surface inside. Her lipstick was gone. Her hair was a little out of place. She automatically began to put the loose hairs in place. She could see Geo standing behind her. His gaze simmering as he looked at her through the reflection. He looked like a hungry wolf who had his prey trapped. She wasn't as nervous anymore. When she had first met him she thought she would never feel comfortable with him, but she had, and after that kiss, she was even more curious about the things they would do together as his companion. Their eyes connected.  "You're beautiful." He commented hungrily. It was a simple compliment, but it dripped off his lips like honey. It did something to Carolina. Her knees grew a little weak. She swallowed hard. She watched him take a step forward and gently rest his hands on her hi

The dinner party Geo had invited Carolina to was a small gathering. Six couples in attendance. It was held at a place called Nevermore Manor. It was owned by a long time friend and business associate of his father, Mr. Blake Nevermore.  Geo had introduced her to the couples when they had first arrived upon entering the large home. No one seemed to notice that she didn't belong to their world. She was grateful for that. Before dinner was announced, the men went to Mr. Nevermore's study for Scotch and Whiskey while the women went to the Parlor Room for Champagne and wine. Carolina found a seat in a chair close to the door. The other women sat on the loveseat and the remaining chairs that surrounded the mahogany table. They all spoke to one another as i
