Martine (II)

This last week has been interesting. I didn’t get to see Martine much because she was working at the strip club. We did get together for brunch on Sunday “morning” (that’s 1PM for her). She was dressed pretty sexy, but not too much for a public place (and certainly not by Montreal standards—ALL the girls look good, here!). I did my best to avoid thinking about sex, but the way her boobs pushed against her t-shirt, it was hard not too. Eventually, she let out a little sigh. Was it annoyance or something else?

“Jaycee,” she said with a soft voice. “Are… you thinking about my boobs?”

Busted!

“Y-yeah… Look, it’s hard not to, they’re… spectacular. I just want to…”

She let out a little gasp.

“It’s getting me all… Oooh…”

She dropped her spoon and started gripping the table with both hands. I tried reading her with my faerie sight, but as expected, there was nothing. The signs were there, though: flushed face and chest, slight trembling, squirming of the hips… She was getting hotter by the second, and it was getting me riled up too. For a brief moment, I wanted her to rip her shirt off, but I caught myself. It was too late, though, and her hands flew to her shirt. I quickly reached for her wrists and stopped her. Not here, I thought in a panic.

“I… don’t know why I…” she started between short breaths. “I just want to… Oooh… want to show them to you… to everyone! They feel so hot…”

Uh oh… Yeah, they looked hot all right. Her nipples were hard as rocks. There was no stopping her, she was getting worse, probably because I was getting worse myself. You can’t have a girl like her in front of you and not get excited when you watch her losing control. But I knew this was a bad time to do this, so I made a supreme effort and tried to think of her as my own sister, someone cold, malicious and sexless. Back in my youth, nothing could give me a cold shower like thinking of my sister, and this did the job here. In just a few seconds, everything went back to normal and Martine looked at me like she just woke up.

“What was that?” she asked. “What just happened?”

I didn’t want to answer that, so I stalled. “What do you mean?”

“I was… hot, and now it stopped. You know!” She leaned in and stared into my eyes. “Why did you stop?”

Uh, what?

“I don’t…”

She leaned back against her chair and gave me an indescribable look. “I _know_ you did this, and I’m going to prove it.” Her hands started rubbing her sides, her eyes fixed on me as if daring me to prove her wrong.

We’re talking about a pro, here. This girl knows how to look sexy, bring you into her world and fire up your imagination. It wasn’t long before I my mind started wandering into dangerous territory, and her body began responding accordingly. I immediately thought of my ball-busting sister and got myself (and her) under control again.

“Well?” Melissa said, a smile on her lips. “Care to explain what’s going on?”

Damn it. She played me. A smart stripper. Who’d have thought?

“All right.” I sighed. “I’m sorry, you’re right, I have a… thing.”

“A thing? That’s not very…” She looked for a word. “Éloquent?”

She sounded so SEXY when she spoke in French. Maybe that’s part of the reason why all women here are so sexy.

“Eloquent,” I said, focusing on the topic, not her sexiness.

“Yes, well, for a guy who works with words, ‘thing’ is a bit vague. What ‘thing’?”

I thought about it for a moment. Nothing sounds truer than the truth, even if it’s not the whole truth.

“I have a… connection with you. You know, a kind of spiritual bond, except the sexy way. I can’t explain it better than that. I… I know it’s kind of creepy, but I swear it’s not something I did to you. It just… happened.”

I knew this was a very slippery slope and hoped to God she didn’t start screaming at me. But she just shrugged.

“I don’t mind,” she said, like it was nothing serious.

There was a pause while I gathered my jaw from the table and jammed it back in place (figuratively, of course).

“What do you mean, you don’t mind? I just messed with your mind, and that’s okay?”

“Well, you didn’t do it on purpose, and I think I believe you. And I liked it.”

“You did?”

“Yeah, it was kind of hot, losing control like that. We should do it again, so long as you keep it safe for me… It gets me REALLY hot.”

Ah… sure, ma’am, whatever you want. Seriously, though, was this girl for real?

She looked at her watch. “Look, I have to go to the gym, I’m meeting with my trainer in 30 minutes. Let’s get together tomorrow, maybe, and try a few things?”

I took care of the tab, we kissed, and she rushed off. Just for fun, as she walked away, I imagined her getting a rush of searing heat between her thighs, and observed as she stumbled before jogging off.

Wow, this girl is going to be FUN to be with.

Martine

I meant to type this up last night, but things derailed a little bit…

Yesterday morning, I called back Martine to set up—well, I’m not sure I can quite call it a date, more like a sex appointment. We both knew what would happen if I called her and the short conversation somewhat confirmed it: we’ve got the hots for each other. She was direct and to the point: let’s meet at my place and “see what happens.”

When she showed up, I knew she meant business. That form-fitting red minidress she was wearing left little to the imagination. No bra and, as far as I could tell, no underwear. She wasted no time and gave me a kiss. Damn, I thought, Montreal girls are FAST! Then she mentioned she was hungry—she’d barely had time to finish work, change, and run over to my place. She was hoping we’d get dinner before “what comes next.” I was pretty hungry too (and not just for food), so I agreed. She suggested a place in Old Montreal, a restaurant called Stash Cafe, which sounded fine to me. I figured a cafe would be fast and not too expensive. Downstairs, we grabbed a taxi (it wasn’t walking distance from my place), which set me back around $20.

The Stash Cafe, it turns out, is not cheap, especially when your date likes vodka. They’ll gladly suggest you try their vodka sampler, and have more vodka of the type you like best. Then there are the appetizers, entrees, desserts, specialized coffees, etc. All through dinner, though, my focus was on something else—her incredible, absolutely stunning eyes (no, perverts, I mean her real eyes!). She had a way of looking at me that made me feel like the most important (and handsome, and smart, and capable) guy in the world. She asked me tons of questions, laughed at my jokes, and showed genuine interest in everything I did and thought.

And at this point, I know what many of you are thinking: “Jaycee,” you say, “she’s working you. This is what she does for a living. She’s just after your money and this is a test to see if she can hook you. Don’t trust her, she’s a pro.” And most of the time, you’d be right. But please bear in mind a few things. First, I’m friends with Brooke, which means I’ve learned a few things about “hired guns” trickery (hired guns is a term Brooke uses to describe girls who make a career exploiting their looks and how they affect men). Second, I’ve hung out with strippers in the past (Mandy and Roseanne, to name the obvious ones). I know the tricks and I’m not easily played.

So no, there was more at work there than Martine just working me. Now, I know she WAS working me, but that’s not what was working. I think the fact I couldn’t read her was connected to this strange attraction we felt for each other. If I didn’t know better, I would have thought this was some kind of faerie trick, but by now I’m pretty much immune to faerie curses, so I knew that wasn’t it.

But I’m getting ahead of the story. Back to dinner, we wrapped things up after a bit, which set me back almost $200. That girl sure likes her high-rolling lifestyle, I thought. But it didn’t matter, we were headed back to my place and then I was going to get my money’s worth. On the ride back, we were both struggling to keep our hands off each other. The climb up the staircase was another struggle, with me following her and mock-pulling the hem of her minidress to see what she WASN’T wearing. When we got to my apartment door, I couldn’t take it and pushed her against it, her boobs squashed against the wood. She gasped and parted her legs, pushing her butt against me. I lifted her minidress, unbuckled my belt, and went for it. We didn’t care that we were doing it in the corridor! But I had a quick moment of clarity and while rhythmically ramming in and out of her, I unlocked the door and we both fell inside. I closed the door with my foot and took her like a dog.

Seriously, we were like animals in heat and acted out my every fantasy. It seemed everything I wanted to do, she wanted to do as well. And even more surprising, I had the stamina to match hers. We went at it for nearly an hour before we collapsed with exhaustion.

She left in the middle of the night. I gave her enough taxi money to get her back to her place, which is off the island of Montreal (in a place called Laval, just north of the river). Then I had a chat with my Minx to ask her if she knew what had happened. Clearly there was something supernatural at work, but she shrugged her tiny shoulders and said she knew nothing about that. I should ask Attitude, she said, she would know. So I did, and got some answers (but as always, with Attitude, I didn’t get the whole story).

It appears that Martine is what faeries call a thrall. They’re pretty rare, apparently, and they are highly suggestible. You know how AB blood types are called universal receivers? Thralls are like that, but for mind magic. And my Nudge ability apparently qualifies as mind magic. Except that instead of being this tiny little archaeologist hammer, it’s a huge sledgehammer. That’s what happened, I realized! Every little thing I wanted her to feel, she felt! And not just a little bit, a LOT! Thralls naturally amplify suggestions to ridiculous proportions. Attitude didn’t want to say more, but said what would come next would be a LOT of fun.

Is it just me, or is that a bit worrisome? But when Attitude doesn’t want to talk, there’s not much I can do, so we’ll just have to wait and see.
