Finding Katherine (Katherine Series: Book One) (2 page)

As Jacqueline tried on many sexy outfits for
her date, she finally settled on a yellow mini dress that slipped
over her body perfectly and showed off her bronzed skin.

She squealed in excitement "I had a feeling
this vacation was going to be amazing! I feel bad leaving you
though."

"It's fine honestly. You be safe ok?"

Jacqueline hugged Katherine tightly, "I will.
I love you, you’re the best...don't wait up." she winked as she
left the hotel room to meet the dark, handsome stranger.

Once the door closed, Katherine jumped onto
the bed - burying her face deep into the pillow and began to weep.
She wanted so desperately to be carefree like her friend, she
wanted to have fun and meet men but one thing was holding her
back.

Just a month or so earlier she thought she
had found the one and now she was single and lonely. Yearning for a
man’s warm touch and the closeness that affection and sex offered,
consumed her.

Some time passed and Katherine's eyes
adjusted to the brightness of the room around her, she realized
that she must have fell asleep in the hotel room from all the
crying that she had been doing.

She lay there for a while thinking about what
Jacqueline was up to and decided it wasn't fair that she had all
the fun. This was her vacation too and she became determined to get
her ex far from her mind once and for all.

"Pull yourself together Kat" She muttered to
herself before going into the bathroom to get ready for an evening
alone and on the lookout for fun.

A short time later, a vision of beauty walked
down the beach towards the Cabana. With a hot pink maxi dress, with
a large split down the leg that fit her thin frame beautifully,
Katherine Parker strode with confidence desperate to become a whole
new her.

With minimal makeup and her fashionable hair
bouncing up and down with each step, she stood out as a naturally
gorgeous lady from those around her.

She sat down on a bar stool and instantly
noticed a sexy bar tender staring at her, the glint in her eye told
him the thoughts that were running through his head. She ordered a
martini and he immediately started up a conversation with her.

"What beautiful girl like you drink alone
for?" He asked in broken English.

"I am a strong independent woman.." she said,
in a voice that came out a little more meekly than she had
hoped.

"Let me buy drink for you." the man said.

"Thank you." She said, her eyes getting drawn
to his dark eyes and chiseled body.

"Talk to me." he answered.

The bar was relatively empty and before
Katherine knew what was happening, one drink turned into many and
she poured out her heart to the mysterious stranger. The more his
sexy accent consoled her, the more his eyes were planted firmly on
her - made her slowly but surely succumb to him and the events that
were going to take place.

"This Tony guy...he jerk!" said the stranger.
"Not all men jerk, I am not." he grabbed her hand and she found
herself eager to have this man’s hands all over her.

She had never even thought about having sex
with a stranger, she was not that sort of woman. The more drinks
she had, the more her inhibitions lowered and it turns out that the
bar man had similar things in mind.

"I finish my shift soon, come back to hotel
with me."

"I don't even know your name."

"The body more powerful than words." he
winked.

Katherine laughed at the cheesy line but none
the less, bit her lip seductively and grabbed the bar tender’s
hand. He led her to his hotel and once in there, words mattered
even less to him.

"I'm a little drunk." Katherine said, burying
her head in her hands while sitting on his bed "Can we talk for a
while?"

"No, you fine. We talk plenty." he insisted
and ran his hands up her legs. "Take this off."

It was funny that now he had her back to his
hotel room, the earlier compliments and charm he had used - had all
but disappeared. She had to admit that his commanding words did
turn her on to a degree. He pulled at her dress, almost ripping
it.

This was not what Katherine was used to but
maybe that was a good thing as she surrendered to the rough
encounter that was about to take place. Katherine was shaking like
a leaf on a tree. She had only ever been with one person in her
whole life. After 5 years of very controlled, almost boring sex,
she now was about to sleep with a complete stranger.

No foreplay was had, it was like the man was
interested in one thing only as he stood up and got naked. He
didn’t place his watch on the bureau. He didn’t lay out his clothes
so they wouldn’t wrinkle. He simply threw his clothes all over the
floor and looked at Katherine as if she was something he simply
wanted to get pleasure from.

Katherine lay exposed in her matching black
lingerie, which he pulled at viciously with his teeth. He didn’t
tell Katherine how great she looked in her lingerie. He simply
grunted and groaned as he positioned himself to penetrate
Katherine. Then just like that he did.

She lay there frozen, thrust after thrust.
This was not passionate and was not what she imagined, she did not
even come close to a climax and the sex seemed to last for a matter
of only just a couple minutes.

He was a very large man and rough, not caring
if he hurt her or not. She had not had sex for six weeks and this
encounter was quite uncomfortable to say the least. He didn’t even
kiss her. He sucked viciously on her neck and breasts as he fucked
her with haste and clumsiness.

When he was finished, he simply rolled off
and put his clothes back on. It was only then that Katherine
realized that the thoughtless stranger had not used a condom. She
was on the pill, but still, who knows if he had any horrible
diseases or not.

He did not seem like the kind of guy who
spent weeks wining and dining women, if he had slept with her after
just a few short hours of knowing her - how many others had he done
it with?

"I walk you back hotel room." he said,
grabbing her arm and pulling her up after she had put her dress
back on.

At least he was trying to act like a
gentleman now or maybe he just wanted her out of his room as
quickly as possible. She agreed and he walked her back in silence
to her room, the drink was wearing off and Katherine was starting
to feel numb and a little sore downstairs.

"If you want do again...I down on the beach
every day." He said harshly slapping her ass, before walking
away.

Wow, what a charmer!

The next morning Katherine awakens still in
her clothes from the night before as the evenings events play over
in her mind. Her head pounded from all the martinis she had been
drinking at the bar and she was thoroughly shocked at herself that
she had a one night stand with somebody whose name she did not even
know.

She found herself not only ashamed at what
had happened but thoroughly frustrated with the lack of passion
that occurred.

Having sex without experiencing an orgasm was
a little like going to a restaurant and leaving before the main
course arrived. Being unsatisfied left her hornier than she
started. She stripped down and had a painful masturbation session
in her cool white sheets. After a little struggling of not only
getting the bar tender off her mind, but Tony as well, she managed
to get herself off.

Her fingers were no substitute for a skilled
man however and now feeling a little more confident about her
future, she couldn't wait to see what was out there for her.

Chapter 3

Jacqueline comes bursting into the hotel shortly after Katherine
wakes from her slumber, beaming from ear to ear.

"Someone had a good night." Katherine says
trying to push her own embarrassing encounter to the back of her
mind.

"Oh my god, good doesn't cut it - Juan is
amazing, we were AMAZING!"

Katherine raises her eyebrows, "Really, how
amazing?"

"He was so attentive and loving on our date.
He paid for the most beautiful meal at the beach and made me feel
like such a princess. We danced under the stars for hours and he
gave me a full body massage back at the hotel. After that, well
let's just say that he completely rocked my world! It was the best
date I've ever had and the best sex come to think of it."

"Sounds amazing."

"Oh, it was. He's so good with his hands and
knew exactly what he was doing! We made love by the fireplace, in
the shower, on the kitchen worktop and even..."

"I get it." Laughs Katherine, cutting her
off. She did love her friend but she couldn't help being
inconsiderate at times.

"Jeez, I'm sorry Kat. What did you do last
night?"

"I just stayed in the room, watched some TV
and had an early night."

"We'll have an amazing day together today, I
promise. I hear there is an event tonight sponsored by the hotel,
it's meant to be great fun. I'm just going to grab a shower
Katherine, I'm still all sweaty" She giggles.

After several hours of trawling beaches,
landmarks and shops - the friends finally stop at a restaurant to
sample some of the local cuisine. Katherine's thoughts can’t help
but stray to the occurrence of the night before and she keeps going
off into her own world.

"Are you checking out that waiter?"
Jacqueline asks as Katherine stares straight ahead.

"What? No, of course not! When are you seeing
Juan again?"

"Well, I've got his number but I don't want
to appear too keen, y'know?"

"Gotcha. I could do with meeting my own man
to sweep me off my feet but it isn't going to happen."

"Why not?"

"I'm not like you Jac.." Katherine says,
"You’re gorgeous, confident and funny."

"You're beautiful and funny. Confident, not
so much but that can be worked on. You shouldn't put yourself down
so much, all that's holding you back is yourself."

Katherine inhaled as strong hands fondled her
body from her hips up to her breasts. She tingled all over as the
mystery lips kissed up her legs and fingers fumbled with the zipper
on her shorts.

"Mmm"

She awakes startled to find herself on a sun
lounger the other side of the island and Jacqueline poking her in
the arm.

"Having fun?"

"What?"

"You were making sex noises in your sleep."
Jacqueline laughs.

"Shut up!" Katherine blushes.

"I made enough sex noises of my own last
night to know what they sound like."

"I get it Jac, you got laid last night - do
you really have to mention it every 10 minutes?"

Jacqueline affectionately pokes her tongue
out at her friend before grabbing her by the arm and pulling her
up.

"Come on, that event is in a couple of hours,
we need to get back and make ourselves smoking hot."

A few hours later and the girls are sat
downstairs in their hotel on a table with six other vacationers.
Katherine is dressed in a cute floral all in one play suit while
Jacqueline opted for a sexy but safe little black dress. The event
put on by the hotel is made up of music, complimentary food and
drinks and several fun games that have been going on throughout the
night.

Katherine is rather irritated by the fact
that everybody around the table appears to be in couples. There are
a Gothic man and woman seated next to Jacqueline who have
practically been mating on the table in front of everyone. There is
a Mediterranean couple who are gently holding hands across the
table. There is a man sitting next to Katherine who is very good
looking but he appears to be with an equally good looking woman,
who he has been making conversation with during the evening.

Jacqueline yawns to Katherine to show off her
boredom before heading for the bar and collecting a whole tray
filled with shots. "Just what we need to get the party started."
she shouts at the rest of the table, "Help yourself guys."

The Gothic couple seems not to hear and
continue to shove their tongues down each other’s throats. The
couple opposite politely take a shot each.

Katherine turns towards the twosome next to
her, making eye contact with the man. "Shot?"

His gentle eyes catch her gaze for longer
than what is necessary and he nods before turning to the woman next
to him.

"Sis, you up for a shot?"

Sis? Yes, she isn't his god damn wife - she's
his sister, Katherine thinks to herself. Jacqueline hands over some
shots and they both down them immediately.

Katherine catches the man’s eye again and
takes the opportunity to introduce herself. "I'm Katherine."

"Hey, I'm Jack" he answers, shaking her hand
firmly. His warm grip shoots a bolt of electricity through her as
she begins to lose herself in his ocean blue eyes.

"Stacy." says his sister, leaning over to
shake her hand which forces Jack to let go. Katherine politely
shakes her hand before introducing them both to Jacqueline too.
Jacqueline leans into Katherine and whispers "Cute."

"Keep your eyes to yourself, Juan would not
approve and neither do I."

Jacqueline giggles, "Don't worry, it seems
like he only has eyes for you."

Katherine and Jack spend much of the evening
chatting with each other to the point where Stacy and Jacqueline
start to get annoyed and move to sit next to each other so that
they can talk too. The whole room seems to vanish to Jack and
Katherine, as they communicate as if they have known each other for
years.

As more and more free drinks flow, the couple
become even more comfortable with each other and lots of gentle
flirting signals start between them. They are sitting so close that
they could almost be on one another’s laps. Jack gently touches her
arm or leg occasionally when talking to Katherine. It is not done
in a sleazy way at all and it feels for both of them, like the most
natural thing in the world.
