23

Fred looked at the table before him, the three champagne bottles and numerous glasses, which he was trying to count, but which seemed to move and blur before his tired eyes, reddened by the smokey atmosphere. The throbbing music had increased in tempo and the club no longer seemed a cavernous space, it was now filled with crowds of men around all the tables, each of which seemed to have women in attendance drinking with them or dancing for them. Alexia sat beside him sipping the last of her champagne.

“Are you quite certain you do not want me to dance for you Fred?” she asked him again.

“No, thank you Alexia, but I am happy just having your company and listening to your lovely voice. I know you do not believe me, but your accent is lovely to me”

“Oh, Fred, you are such the English gentleman” and she leaned confidentially to whisper in his ear, “not like your friend, I think he has more in common with the Lithuanian men who come here, look how he is making Ivana work, I think he will make her too tired to wish to join him later at your hotel.”

Fred reluctantly took his eyes from Alexia’s cleavage, where they were drawn to gaze surreptitiously many times, and looked around. Yet again he was rewarded with the sight of Ivana dancing seductively before Steve. She had removed her bikini top and her breasts were revealed in the low lighting as she swayed and gyrated her hips, then leant over Steve to tease him with her breasts just inches from his face. Fred could see Steve was sitting on his hands, no doubt to stop himself from reaching out to touch those enticing breasts just inches from his face, which was a picture of undisguised lust.

“Alexia, I am not so much the gentleman, it is just my way. If you are offended by my friend then I apologise on his behalf.”

“Oh no need, he is just a man, after all. I am sure you might sometimes wish for the sort of treatment Ivana gives your friend.” Alexia licked her lips and smiled at Fred from lowered eyes. She had never before encountered a customer like Fred, and she was enjoying herself. She had already earned more Litas than she was accustomed to in one night, and it was barely half way over. So she was full of generosity and a desire to please Fred, something she had not felt for a customer before. She wondered idly if he was gay, but by the way he would stare at her breasts this was a pretty remote possibility. In fact she suspected equally that he was simply a virgin, and in fact she was right about that. She found the idea that she was almost naked sitting with a grown man who had never had sex with a woman was a real turn on for her. It gave her total control over the whole transaction, right down to the matter of deciding if she wished to seduce him and take his virginity. She did not see this as any challenge, Alexia was certain of her powers to seduce any man placed before her, she had never failed before whether they were customers at the ‘Old Town’ or men she met elsewhere whom she wished to seduce and make her boyfriends.

“Yes, perhaps I do Alexia, and you must not take it personally. As I have told you there is another woman I was hoping to meet in Vilnius, and for some reason I cannot stop thinking about her. Remember, we were supposed to be meeting tomorrow?” Fred had unburdened himself and told Alexia everything. He had been surprised by her sympathetic reaction.

“Yes, I know dear, and you remember what I told you? I am a woman and you can trust me in this matter. I would even be prepared to bet tonight’s wages on the matter, as I say she will not be able to resist, she will keep her appointment and be at the café.”

Fred thought about this for a moment. Perhaps Lydia would be there, her comment had indicated as much after all. He squinted blearily at his watch in the dim light, it would take him a while to get to sleep after all this champagne and he did not want to wake too late for his visit to the café. Perhaps he should even arrive early so as to watch for her arrival, if she did come.

He was distracted by something most unexpected. Ivana had danced her way nearer to him and now gyrated and leant in close to his face, her bare breasts clearly there just inches from his widened eyes. He looked around to Steve in confusion. Steve was grinning from ear to ear watching the whole thing.

“Well mate, it’s your tab and it looks like your girl isn’t dancing for you, so I thought you could have a share of my bird on me!” Steve almost shouted to be heard above the loud music and background noise.

Fred was confused and looked to Alexia for guidance. She seemed untroubled by Ivana’s shameless behaviour and smiled at him benevolently.

“Did you know they’ll put on a double show for us, we only have to ask Fred” Steve informed Fred

Fred had no idea what a ‘double show’ was, but he liked Alexia and wanted her to do as she pleased. He had discovered she was ten years his junior and to his mind this was too young to really be a woman – so he thought of her as a girl and this made it difficult for him to have sexual feelings towards her.

“Yeah, sure, but I am having a nice chat with Alexia, if that’s OK?”

“Whatever you want” Steve shouted “But, I know what I want, and it’s called a woman by the name of Ivana!”

Hearing her name and noticing Fred was not giving the her semi naked body the attention it deserved, Ivana smiled and moved back to Steve, where she sat on his lap and leant in to whisper in his ear. Steve’s face was a picture of delight. He licked his lips and then shrugged Ivana off, to lean in closer to Fred.

“Hey! Result! Ivana and I are heading back to the hotel! I’ll catch you later about the tab, OK mate?”

“Sure, whatever is good” said Fred. He was not surprised. Steve seemed to sleep with a woman as readily as he looked at them, so it must have been no challenge for him to seduce Ivana. He wondered if he should try to stay in the club longer, he had experiences in the past that being in the bedroom next so Steve’s in this sort of situation was anything but quiet.

“Want me to stay a little longer?” He asked Alexia

“Oh please do! You are such good company I wish you could never leave” Alexia answered enthusiastically.

So it was that Fred spent his Saturday night talking over and over with Alexia about Lydia. He was fortunate she was being paid to listen to him. If Alexia were not working she would never be ably to tolerate such talk of another woman because she had an extremely jealous side to her.

Eventually the evening drew to an end, there was one more champagne bottle on the table and so Fred could not bring the numbers into focus as he signed the slip for his credit card – there seemed a lot of numbers, but then the exchange rate could do that, he would check tomorrow. Right now all he wanted was his bed for the night.

“I am so sorry Alexia, but I must go back to my hotel to get to bed” He informed her

Alexia smiled tenderly. This was very touching, because every other man would have asked her to join them, but she was pretty sure Fred only had sleep on his mind. So she asked him with her prettiest smile, “Would you like me to come too?” As she uttered the words she was surprised to find that she actually wanted him to take he rup on the offer.

“No thanks, Alexia. I would be bad company and I need my sleep.” He said

Alexia composed herself nto to show her disappointment. After all, she was earning easy money and could not be fussy. “OK Fred, allow me to at least sort out matter here and see you back to your hotel.”

“OK Alexia, you are an angel”

She smiled, if he knew the truth! She was no angel, but a devil in disguise.
