I’d been in my own little world. Not even realizing that we’re already in Midtown.
Fuck, I need to get my mind off of this shit.
“Just drop me near 6th Avenue far corner,” I tell the cabbie and he pulls up to the curb. I swipe and get out.
I need to get my mind off of Lorna.
I also need to get it off of Becca. I mean, my brain needs a complete reboot.
So what do I do?
I head into Lace.
It’s a strip club off 35th street, in the shadow of the Empire State Building.
Don’t shake your head, Gorgeous. New York City is filled with strip clubs, massage parlors, peep shows, and brothels.
They’re just sitting right in front of you in plain sight.
Times Square? You got peep shows where you pay a buck per minute to jerk off to the girl in the room fingering herself.
Near Grand Central? $200 an hour gets you a massage with a happy ending from a fucking Eastern European or Asian masseuse.
On the East Side? $300 and up and you can go into apartment buildings and pick the girl and take her for an hour to a room where you can fuck her brains out.
Sure, I’ve done some of it.
But I work on Wall Street. This is the fucking culture.
“Hey Mason, long time,” a stripper says as I enter the dimly lit main stage.
I look at her.
“Destiny?” I ask. She smiles at me.
Right. I forgot to tell you that there have been a host of Kane Price department parties at this place. Destiny and I have had our share of fun in the past.
She’s a good fuck. Just likes her pussy liked and her ass spanked and for me to cum all over her face.
“What you looking for today?” she asks, her hands traveling to her tits. “Fuck me in the Champagne room or you want me to blow you in the VIP?”
I look at her for a second.
That’s when it hits me.
Did I just leave Lorna to come here?
“Just give me a second, alright?” I tell her and go outside again.
Thankfully, the rain has stopped.
I look downtown.
In my old life, I would have been looking either inside to Destiny or uptown to Lorna.
In my old life, I would have no problem fucking Lorna. Hell, I might have even traded in my morals and enjoyed it.
But I’ve changed.
