URBAN: Chosen By A Kingpin (74 page)

“Thanks. I just left the audition you had set up for me last month.” She took out her bun and shook her hair out until it fell in layers on her shoulders.”

“That’s right. The reality show audition was today. Well, listen, we have a busy afternoon and evening ahead of us. First place we are going to is the hair salon in Brooklyn. I have a friend who will get us right in. While there, we will get a facial, manicure and pedicure.” I glanced over to make sure she was listening. Athena was putting on her lip gloss so I continued. “After that, we are going shopping for a few outfits you can wear on this photo shoot. This is the big one so we have to find a variety of apparel that you will look perfect in. You have to step it up a notch tonight, so I want you to put your all into it. ”

She put her compact mirror down and back into her purse. She looked over and smiled, “sounds good to me. I’m ready.”

Beep. Beep. Beep. I glanced down at my phone at the text message I just received. ‘Greetings, Jeff Foxx will meet you tonight at 11 p.m. sharp. The location will be in a studio behind the Port Authority Bus Terminal on 42nd street. I will meet you outside of the terminal. Arrive early. Arrive with Photo ID and arrive with confidence. See you in a few. Maxine Shaw.’

Looking at the time in the car, if Jeff wanted to meet at 11 p.m. that would give us approximately ten hours to be ready to step on the set. I knew tonight would be the beginning of the best years to come. Hopping onto the Brooklyn Bridge, I smiled inside knowing that all of my hard work would soon pay off.

I thought back to the times I was struggling to pay bills, and all the drama my relationship with Derrick had caused me. I lost focused on myself during those times. So thankful that I was offered a job as a talent scout nearly ten years ago, this inspired me to start my own agency.

As a little girl, I never considered modeling; I was a tomboy to the fullest extent. I’m talking about baggy jeans, oversized shirts, and baseball caps every day; outside from sun up to sun down on the basketball court with the boys that the girls used to work so hard to grab their attention. My dream had always been to go to college and be the first female on the Men’s basketball team. Unfortunately, I got mixed up with the wrong crowd and my life turned upside down when I was kicked out of college because I was at a rave party where drugs were on the premises. At that party that night is when I had met Derrick.

Derrick left me exactly one year ago because he could not handle me dealing with a lot of men in the industry. He would always accuse me of sleeping around or staying out intentionally. We had tried to get back together on many occasions but it never worked out due to his jealousy.

I finally called it quits when he showed up to a meeting with New York City’s top casting agent, Thomas Richards. We were meeting about a male client of mine who wanted to be a part of an upcoming series on HBO. As we were closing up the meeting, I noticed a shadow creeping outside of the restaurant. At first I didn’t pay it any mind until I realized that the person looking at me was Derrick. He had been drinking as he had adapted more frequently daily.

Derrick stormed into the restaurant and called me all kind of whores. Then he had the nerve to put his hands on me and drag me out of the restaurant. By the time we made it out front, the police had been called. Good thing this was midtown because police were always around. I was beyond upset because my meeting was ruined, and as Derrick was being put into the back of a cruiser, Thomas Richards’ told me to never contact him again. As a result of that, my client also abandoned me and recently I just discovered that he is now the leading actor in the hit series Empire.

 I never forgave Derrick after that. After our break up, he stalked me almost everywhere I went. I literally had to take out a restraining order on him. Although New York is a big city, it is still a small enough place to where you do run into each other, especially when you keep in contact with mutual friends.

I longed for a man’s touch but I rather suffer from my sexual frustration than deal with the bull shit that comes along with men and their jealousy issues. My collection of porn, and Vaseline keep me company almost every night so I am not lacking much.

Three hours later

Finally walking out of the hair salon with freshly done hair and freshly done manicure and pedicure, I had to admit, my client looked like a star already.

“Well only thing left on our list is shopping. We have less than seven hours before meet-up time.” It seemed like I was speaking to myself for a minute. I glanced over at Athena and noticed she was staring at my lips. Feeling a little uncomfortable now, I screamed her name. “Athena?”

She glanced up into my eyes. “I’m sorry Priscilla. I just didn’t know how beautiful you were behind all of that hair. You have the prettiest lips ever.” She smiled her bright smile at me.

Still a little freaked out, I told her thank you and returned my eyes to the road. Deciding to keep shopping close to where the shoot would be and also to both of our homes, I decided to head back into the city. We made it to Sacs on Fifth Avenue an hour later. After finding a few outfits there, we decided to go to two other stores to find the perfect lingerie to shoot in. With trying on the clothes and shoes, in all, it took us about three hours. Now we were down to just four hours.

“Do you want to grab something to eat?” I couldn’t have my client out on an empty stomach.

“How about we go back to your place and make something quick there. That way we can go over a few things before this shoot.” Athena suggested.

Honestly, that wasn’t a bad idea at all. “Well do you want to go home and grab something to slip on for now?”

She smirked. “As busy as you’ve been having me, I carry all of my bathing stuff in my bag here.” She held up a big Hermes bag. “And I also have an extra outfit in here just in case.”

Impressive. “Well, let’s go.”

Hopping back into the car, I could have sworn I seen the same car again. What is going on with me? I was beginning to think I was suffering from lack of sleep or something. I wanted to ignore it but I kept getting this nagging feeling that maybe it was Derrick’s ass again. I would not let him ruin this opportunity for me. Deciding to ignore the car, we headed to my house to get ready for tonight. Time was winding down now.

Pulling onto the street of my nice Park Avenue condo, that was bought for me by my ex fiancé, I looked back in the mirror to see if the car suddenly appeared again. Thank goodness. I definitely need a nap before the night gets started. Jeff’s reputation around here is that if he does not like the shoot, he will continue to redo the shoot until he feels as though it is flawless. I sighed with that thought alone. Not that I had doubt in my client, but this was her first major shoot with an A-list photographer.

“Well, here we are. My humble little bungalow.” I smiled as I opened my car door.

Stepping out of the passenger door, Athena looked from left to right. “Nice neighborhood. I didn’t know you had it made like this. I thought you told me you were form the hood?”

I smiled. “I did tell you that. I am from the hood, and I made it out of the hood. Don’t let my home fool you, I can still beat somebody’s ass if need be. Momma and poppa didn’t raise no punk.” I winked at her and continued to walk into my building.

The doorman held the door open for us to walk through. Finally making it up to my apartment, I told Athena to make herself at home. “We have exactly three hours before we have to meet Maxine and Jeff.” I paused, looking at Athena walk around my immaculate all white living room. “My plan of action is to shower, snack, and take an hour nap before we leave. It will take us a few minutes to get to Fifth Avenue so we don’t have to leave too early. You can use the guest room. It has a shower, shower caps, Victoria Secret soaps and fragrances, as well as guest robes, slippers, and towels.”

“Well I’m going into my room to shower. I will be out to snack in a few minutes.” I walked off.

Leaving the bags that I had bought for myself on the bed, I went straight into the shower. Exhausted. I have a sit-in shower so I sat there for a few minutes underneath the steaming hot water. It felt so good. It wasn’t cold outside, nor was it hot in this spring weather. I just needed something to relax me and this was certainly doing its job. I took my time lathering up my body. Only thing I needed right now would be a man’s touch.

I stepped out of the shower and directly into my nightie. I was planning on getting an hour and a half of sleep. I don’t even think I am going to sit and eat with Athena. Speaking of which, I almost forgot I had a guest.

“Hey, I thought you forgot about me out here.” Athena was seated on the couch in just a towel. Her skin was glistening from the oil she had on her body.

“No, I didn’t forget. I’m just tired.” I went over to hand her the remote control. “As I already told you, make yourself at home. I’m going to take a nap.”

“Enjoy boss-lady.” She nibbled on the strawberry in her hand. “But before you go, I have to ask you why you engage yourself into work so much? I mean, you are always walking and I never see you with any men. Are you a lesbian? Not that anything is wrong with it, I just want to know why you do not have a social life, and also no man.”

Totally caught off guard by her question, I stared at her for a few moments trying to collect my thoughts. “Well, first off, it is none of your business as to why I have no man. Your only question should be why I am working so hard to make sure you are my number one star.” I said. “But since you asked, I will tell you that men are worth more trouble than pleasure. I have been there and done that and right now, only thing I want to do is focus on my work.” I stated matter of factly.

Athena nodded her head. “Okay, I was just asking. Didn’t mean anything by it. I just thought there was an underlying issue.”

“Umm, no.” I responded. “Now if you don’t mind, I am going to turn myself in for a nap.”

I went into my room, closed the door behind me and fell right into bed. I sat there in the bed thinking about Athena’s questions. She really must think I am a lesbian or something. I chuckled. It took me a few minutes to get comfortable but I ended up drifting off to sleep with sweet memories of Derrick, you know the stalker ex-fiancé. I can’t deny the fact that he had some bomb ass dick.

“Hey babe, I missed you this morning. When I woke up, you were gone. Is everything okay?” I went over to Derrick as he sat at our kitchen table. I began massaging his shoulders. He laid his head back into my chest.

“Yea, everything is all good. I received a call this morning from work about an important meeting that was scheduled for the morning. I had to go in a little early to prepare a few things.” He began moaning. “Baby that feels soooo good. Don’t stop.”

I knew Derrick didn’t really do hard labor at work, for goodness sake; he uses his cousin’s laundromat as a front for his small time weed business. So I knew that “meeting” met he either went to see his son by a woman he cheated on me with in the past, in which, I did not allow him to mention his son’s name in my home. Or, he really went into a meeting.

I started to massage a little deeper into his chest. I loved his nice, buffed chest. It was something so sexy about a nice ripped chest. He reached up and started rubbing on my hands directing them down to his groin area.

“Do you feel that? Do you know what that is?” Placing my hands on his rock hard dick made my sensitive areas start to throb.

“Yes I know what it is. It’s daddy. I miss him so much.” I massaged his dick through his Khaki pants. We haven’t had much time to be together since due to our conflicting work schedule so I was more than ready to get some action started. Sexually frustrated is not even the term I would use to explain how bad I wanted to rip his big black dick out and suck it to no end. Wasting no drop, I would devour it entirely.

Turning to walk around to the front of my ebony king, I crouched over his body. “Say big daddy, how about we take this up to the bedroom so I can help you release some stress.”

He bit his sexy bottom lip. So plump and juicy. His deep dimple was now exposed. “How about we do something a little more ‘here and now’ in the kitchen.” He stood up causing me to back up against the wall.

Picking me up, he placed me on our kitchen eating bar. “Stay put.” He instructed.

He walked across our porcelain kitchen floor to grab some whipped cream and a few cherries from the fridge. My smile deepened. I knew what time it was.

Hopping off the counter, rushing to take off my clothes off, Derrick sat back to watch me strip.

“Get back on the bar.” He moved his way over to me still fully dressed. “Play with your pussy. Get it wet for daddy.”

Doing as I was told, I began touching myself. Starting with my perky 36 C breasts, I slowly moved down to my nice Brazilian waxed vagina. Pulling the lips apart, I start circling my clit with my middle finger. “Mmm.” I moaned as I started working up a faster rhythm. “Come lick me daddy.” Picking up my pace, I see him start to strip down out of his clothes.

“Please hurry, I don’t want to come without you baby.” Arching my back I closed my eyes.

A few minutes later I felt it. I felt his wet tongue. “Yes baby. Lick me just like that.” Grabbing the back of his head, I pulled him in closer to me in an attempt to bury his head in my wet pussy.

“This feels so good daddy. Don’t stop. Yesssss…..”

Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Stretching as I reached to turn off my alarm, I opened my eyes slowly and felt something out of place. I quickly glance over at the door and noticed that Athena is standing there nude, just watching me with her finger in her mouth.

“Hey boss lady, I heard you in here making noise so I came to make sure you were okay.” She smiled.

Quickly glancing down realizing that I was also nude, I grabbed the sheet to cover my body. “Yes I am fine Athena. How long have you been there?”

She blushed. “Long enough to know you miss someone named Derrick.” She giggled and went off towards the living room.
