The Life of Anna, Part 2: Entwined (40 page)

It was unfortunate that she and Aaron had to break up. It would have been easier for Aaron to help. But as much as he'd harassed Melanie, she wouldn't budge. Under normal circumstances, he would have agreed with her decision. He just worried about Anna, and wasn't completely rational when it came to her.

A knock at the door made Anna’s stomach clench up. Was it Zach, returning for another session of pain? She trembled as she walked to the door and winced as she opened it.

“Trenton?” Anna gasped in surprise at seeing Devin’s Deacon and co-worker standing in her doorway. “W-what are you doing here?”

Trenton gave her a bright smile. “Devin said I could...visit you.” He cocked his head. “Are you busy?”

“I...” Anna shook her head and stepped backwards. “No. Come on in.”

Trenton closed the door and looked her over, gray eyes smiling. He reached for her and pulled her close, kissing her deeply. “Where’s your bedroom?” he asked in a husky voice.

Anna pointed to the second bedroom and Trenton walked her backwards into the room, undressing her on the way.

“Damn, Anna,” Seth murmured against Anna’s neck as they lay in her bed together Thursday morning. “Call me anytime you’re bored. I’ll be happy to keep you company.”

Anna giggled and turned to face Seth. “I’ll keep that in mind.” She stretched her arms over her head and smiled. Two nights in a row of nice men in her bed.

Trenton, the night before, had been a pleasant surprise. Even though he was a close friend of Devin’s, Trenton was not in the least bit mean or cruel. She would welcome him into her apartment anytime.

Last night, Anna had been lonely. She’d briefly thought about calling Aaron, but it hurt too much to see him. She wanted someone who would distract her from her sad thoughts and Aaron was part of those thoughts. Seth came to mind and, when she called him, he happily obliged her. As much as she was afraid of Alex, she really liked Seth. Alex had said it was okay for her to spend time with him and he was a very good lover.

Seth reached up to caress Anna’s breast and she let out a sigh. “You better keep it in mind,” he said with a smile. He glanced at his watch. “I need to get going, though.”

Anna covered the hand resting on her breast and leaned forward to kiss him. “Thank you for keeping me company.”

Seth grinned. “Anytime.” He sat up and Anna caught sight of the tattoo of Alex’s family crest on his right forearm. She had asked him about it the night before, but he shrugged her question off. It seemed that he was marked by Alex, just like her. Anna was glad Alex hadn’t tattooed her, though.

He dressed and then leaned down to kiss her again. “Call me.”

Anna nodded. “Definitely.”

Later that evening, Anna walked into a small, dark restaurant with Devin and they were led to a table where the mayor sat. Devin had called earlier in the day, telling Anna he needed her tonight for a last-minute dinner meeting with the mayor.

“Anna, this is Mayor George Burt. George, this is Anna.”

The mayor stood and gave her a smile after dragging his eyes up and down her body. Devin had told her to dress in something sexy but not slutty, so she wore a figure hugging black lace dress. It had a high neckline and hit mid-thigh, but the back was very low.

The mayor looked at Devin with a cocked brow. “You think a pretty face is going to change my mind, Devin?”

“You never know, George,” Devin said with a smile as he settled into the leather booth with Anna between the two men.

Devin and the mayor engaged in small talk during cocktails while Anna studied and subtly flirted with the mayor. She used the skills taught by Jack to gain George’s attention, and soon the mayor was distracted from Devin. He paid more attention to Anna than Devin.

Anna glanced at Devin, worried that he would be angry, but Devin gave her a knowing nod and encouraging smile. George seemed quite taken with her, which was the whole point of her attendance at the meeting.

Devin had said that this was the type of place that overt sexual touch was acceptable, just no outright sex. It was a private restaurant, and negotiations and manipulations were common here.

Anna ran her hands up and down the mayor’s thighs after they finished eating, seemingly innocently, as the mayor and Devin discussed some sort of budget matter.

Her hand moved higher and higher with each slow brush, eventually coming to brush his hard cock. The mayor jumped and she played the innocent card, blushing and moving her hand away quickly. He took her hand back and placed it on his crotch.

She massaged him over his dress pants, biting her lower lip and watching him subtly.

“Don’t you want to help Devin out, George?” she whispered in his ear, careful to keep her voice breathy. She leaned back and saw his eyes glaze over slightly as he nodded.

Devin spoke and she repeated the words to the mayor. The mayor seemed happy to do whatever she asked him to do. She slipped under the table and rewarded him with a blowjob, and then he and Devin shook hands, having come to an agreement. In Devin’s favor, of course.

Anna tried calling Jenna again on Tuesday evening, but she still didn’t answer. She left a message apologizing again for what happened and asking Jenna to call. Anna hadn't heard back from her.

Friday night, Anna sat between Trenton's feet with his cock in her mouth. One of his hands rested on her head and he moaned deeply as she sucked on him.

“Maki has been asking when we're going to get together, Devin,” Trenton said in a strained voice as Anna swallowed him. “Fuck, sweetheart. I love your mouth.”

Devin chuckled. “It is a rather delightful mouth, isn't it? I'd love to take the credit for it, but I mustn't upset my best trainer, or he'll stop doing such a good job for me.”

Jack laughed. “Why would I do that when I enjoy the job so much?”

The three men laughed. Devin was in a good mood this evening and Anna was grateful.

“What about tomorrow night, Trenton?” Devin suggested.

Trenton pet Anna's hair. “I think Maki might be agreeable. We don't have any plans that I'm aware of. But she does keep the calendar.”

“Call me tomorrow and let me know.”

Trenton's hand tightened on Anna's head and she felt him stiffen just before his cum shot into her mouth. She swallowed eagerly. She liked Trenton. He was nice to her. The thought of going out with him and his wife made her a little nervous, but his wife seemed to like her as well and didn't mind when he'd been caressing Anna at the banquet.

“Ah, Bryson. I’m glad you were able to make it.”

Anna glanced up as Devin stood and shook hands with a tall man with short gray hair.

“I'm sorry I'm late. I was in a meeting, and the traffic was terrible,” the newly arrived Bryson said in a pleasant voice.

“Anna, come,” Devin said.

She quickly gathered her skirt, stood and walked to Devin's side, kneeling beside him. Bryson took a seat nearby, watching her with interest. He wore the standard tunic and pants that the other men wore.

“Anna, this is Senator Bryson Morrell,” Devin introduced. “Bryson, this is my Anna.”

A senator? Anna looked up at him shyly. He smiled down at her, his gaze lingering on her exposed breasts. Devin put his hand on her head and she understood what he wanted her to do.

Anna looked at the senator for a moment with innocent eyes. She glanced down at the bulge in his pants and bit her lip, then stood and walked slowly towards him. Her breasts were at his eye level and she could feel his gaze on her nipples.

“Hello, Senator,” she said softly.

He pulled his gaze away from her breasts to look up at her face.

“May I sit?” she asked in a soft voice.

He nodded, but didn't speak. His lips parted slightly and he began breathing heavily as she sat in his lap, making sure her breasts moved right by his mouth as she did so. He moaned slightly as she settled.

She traced his high cheekbones with her fingers. He was a very handsome man.

“I've never met a senator before.”

He stared into her eyes as if mesmerized. “I've never met such a beautiful girl before,” he said in a soft voice.

He traced her jaw down to her neck and down to her breasts. She sighed as he cupped her breast and then she leaned forward and kissed his neck.

He tugged at her nipple ring, causing her to moan softly. She pressed her breast into his hand and moved her lips to his ear, blowing softly then nipping the lobe.

“Oh, God,” he groaned as she sucked on his earlobe.

He pulled on her nipple, then kneaded her breast as he captured her lips with his, kissing her deeply. She brought her hand around to the back of his neck and returned his kiss.

His hand strayed to her leg and up her thigh to her wet pussy. He stroked her outer lips gently before pressing his fingers into her tight channel. She hadn't had sex yet tonight. She'd just given several blowjobs, but had no cock inside her. Anna moaned and squirmed as he thrust his fingers in and out of her.

“Please, my lord,” she begged softly.

Devin watched his beautiful Anna work her magic on the state senator. Bryson was a stubborn man and had been avoiding Devin for a few weeks, so he sent him a picture of Anna and told him she would be here tonight. He had been a little concerned that Bryson wouldn't show, but if he hadn't, Devin would have taken Anna to see him in his office.

After Anna finished softening him, he would broach the subject of the banking bill that needed to
not
pass, and the issues he had with the budget. The fucking state congress was threatening to pull funding from some key pet projects of his.

He watched as Anna pulled the senator's cock out of his pants and stroked him several times. She glanced up at him with sparkling eyes before lowering herself onto him, and Bryson looked like he was in heaven.

Devin had not let anyone fuck Anna yet. He wanted her fresh and tight for the senator and it was paying off. He was glad because he really wanted to bury himself in her tight pussy soon. But, business before pleasure. Sometimes.

He chatted with Jack and Trenton while keeping an eye on Anna. Bryson was enraptured by her. She had done well with the mayor the other night. He would be extremely surprised if she didn’t have the same success with Bryson.

A few minutes later he tested his theory, and as expected, Bryson was convivial to Devin's request, despite the previous week's disagreements. Anna had softened him and Bryson was willing to turn his back on the stand he'd made just this morning against Devin's wishes. Devin had no concerns about Bryson changing his mind. He wasn't a stupid man: if he wanted to keep his seat, he would honor his word to Devin, despite being manipulated into it.

Devin would make sure Anna was well rewarded for this. In private of course. It wouldn’t do for the other men to see his affection for her.

“You did very well tonight, Anna,” Devin said as he closed the door to his Manor bedroom behind him.

Anna turned to him with hopeful eyes. “I tried my best, Master.”

“Oh, Baby. You did so well. I'm so proud of you. And so glad you're by my side.” He pulled her into his arms and she melted against him. She really would do anything for approval. He held her head against her chest. “How would you like to go to DC a few days early and we could do some sightseeing before the Gathering in August?”

She looked up at him, eyes wide with excitement. “Oh, Master. Do you mean it?”

Devin grinned and nodded. Her enthusiasm was beautiful. “Is that a yes?”

She nodded her head so hard the chains of her circlet jingled.

He stroked her cheek. “Then I will make the arrangements.” He pulled her to his bed. “Come, let me show you how well you pleased me tonight.”

He slipped her dress off her shoulders and undressed himself, then lifted her gently onto the bed. He knelt between her legs and brushed her pussy lightly. She shivered with anticipation.

He adjusted himself so he lay between her legs and buried his tongue in her sweet nectar, quickly bringing her to her first of many orgasms of the night.

*****

Anna slept peacefully in Devin's arms until late morning. He had utterly exhausted her, bringing her to orgasm after orgasm, strung together like a pleasure chain. He only stopped when she was at her breaking point of pleasure turning into pain. He didn't want to cause her pain, only pleasure. She had earned that.

Devin played with her hair, contemplating the future. He'd received word that Alex was in the process of returning to Germany. This pleased him immensely. It would be so much easier not worrying about him. Perhaps Alex had finally accepted that he'd gotten in over his head and would leave Anna to Devin. What other reason would he have for leaving sweet, sweet Anna?

Anna seemed at ease last night. She didn't seem as frightened. Devin was hopeful she'd finally made peace with her situation and accepted it. Although it could also be the fact that she was dancing more. He knew that Immortals needed a way to keep in touch with their true selves. They did it through music, art or dance usually. Sometimes through writing as well. Anna's obvious outlet, considering her father, was dance.
