TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN The story you are about to read is true. I took a chance writing this story since the information 1 will reveal may get me killed. It is my sincerest hope that whoever reads this will get it to the proper authorities. My name is Sharon Gladwall and even if my life ends the truth shall set me free CHAPTER 1 HOT AND HEAVY If I would have known then what I eventually found out 1 probably would have steered clear of Marcus Joseph McGhee. He was ses so fine with dark gray eyes, almond colored skin, impeccable body. and a smile that could melt glaciers. With all that was going on you couldn't see the sinister snake he really was just thinking about it makes me angry I met Marcus on Friday, May 20, 2009, it was Michelle Colfax birthday and we, Rhonda Steele, April Reynolds, and I were getting our party on when April says. Girl!!Do you see that man sitting over there at the bar? And look he got some fine friends with him The moment I turned, Marcus and I locked eyes, of course 1 blushed because for once April was right he was fine and so were his three companions Yes girl they are fine and won't be alone for long" Especially when we jom their party who knows what could happen Sounds like a plan to me but we gotta wait on Rhonda and of course the birthday girl Michelle". I said with a laugh. As soon as the words left my lips Rhonda and Michelle came back out of breath and a tad bit tipsy "You shoulda came to the dance floor with us man oh man did we cut it up out there", Michelle said "Really Michelle ya'll cut it up?", April asked with a smirk "Yeah girl and the DJ bought us drinks" "Anyways," Rhonda said before April could go any further, "Did you two see them fine as hell men sitting over there by the bar. I love you ladies but I need a man to fix my pipes and I would love to see which one of them can do the job" I remember we all laughed because we were all thinking the same thing well, except maybe Michelle. While we were talking and plotting our moves a round of drinks came to our table "Compliments of the gentlemen at the bar along with a request to join you ladies for the duration of the evening "Why how nice this is the best birthday ever tell them we love for them to join us!", Michelle said surprising us all. The waiter left informing the men that we would accept their company Thank you ladies for allowing us to join you. I am Marcus and these are my friends Joel, Andrew, and Amir", Marcus said while looking directly in my eyes. I was blushing so hard thank goodness I am a dark skinned sister "Nice to meet you Marcus. I am Sharon and these are my friends April, Rhonda, and the birthday girl Michelle" "HAPPY BIRTHDAY", they said in unison while signaling the waiter for a another round of alcoholic beverages I am not sure why Marcus and I hit it off like we did but at the time it felt great and I was on cloud 11 yeah not 9. After about an hour of drinking and talking, April realized that the DJ was playing "Single Ladies" yet again so she suggested we go somewhere else Well I need something to soak up dis here liquor," Rhonda proclaimed sounding like she was in deep south yeah it was time for ber to stop dunking We rented a stretch lime for the night se it made sense for the guys to ride with us. We rode 45 minutes outside of the city to arrive at this huge house with a asian flushing THE CLUB How come we have never heard of this club buddy Michelle asked Marcus friend Joel Nunez who was as saxy as Marcus standing 63 with skin that was gently kissed by the sun and a body that could be viewed as a work of art I don't know birthday girl maybe you should get out more he said followed by a handsome laugh Michallo eyes lit up when he laughed but to me something about it was off I wasn't too thrilled shout going to a place that in all my 34 years living in Maryland never heard of The house that didn't look like much from the outside but it had groups of people coming and going from its big white doors What is this place I asked It's a place for adults who like to be adventurous Marcus explained Sounds fun Marcus I love a little adventure makes life that much more interesting Rhonda said excitedly We entered into the house which was dimly lit with red lights that hung over the doors that were to our left and right as we walked through the long hallway Although our vision was clouded due to the various cigars and cigarette smoke we could hear music, laughter, moans screams, and talking coming from sach of the many doors. Although I didn't know where I was at the time. I was slightly turned on and it didn't help that Marcus was extremely close on my behind I never realized he was that close to me since all my senses were tuned to the sounds all around me Gimel I think we are in some sort of sex house of pleasure!!" Rhonda exclaimed and from the look in her eyes she was down for whatever was about to go down Sec Rhonda Steele is a recent divorcee due to her husband inability to let her know that he was no longer attracted to her or any other female for that matter Not to mention she hasn't had sex in over two years Now a single mother of tween twin girls and the VP of a marketing firm Round About Time at the tender age of 37 She worked out regularly and always kept up with the latest fashion so it wasn't hard for her to attract men but it was hard for her to be attracted to them but in this atmosphere it didn't matter Michelle on the other hand was another story from the look on her face this was the last place she wanted to be I think we should call it a night she said as if to confirm her expression Come on birthday girl you only live once and besides we just checking out the sites. It is up you whether or not you want to go further Joel said softly in Michelle's ear Joel knew what he was doing somehow he figured out Michelle's g-spot was her ear and the only reason I know that because she told me that's how she lost her virginity to her boyfriend in high school Michelle Colfax. 28 is the youngest of our clique and the most sheltered person I know She graduated Maryland Community College with an associates degree in childcare and now works at the Lattle Ones Daycare Center of Maryland She was so very pretty and had a body that men fantasized about and all women including us wished they had Other than the time she lost her virginity in high school she took a vow of celibacy and wanted to wait until she found the right man to marry and treat her like a princess. She was an only child and lived with her parents in the suburbs until the day she left for college two years ago No I think we should just leave now she said softly I shook my head as we headed into what was called the greeting room There were more men and women sitting on round couches and at the bar which I made bee line for April who was unusually quiet, sat beside me Everybody else went to see what else the house had to offer April ordered a tequila with a splash of lime. I knew something was up since she only drank tequila when something was bothering her or she had a secret she wanted to share I waited patiently for her to finish her beverage while sipping on my concoction of Hennessy and coke, watching the cougile making out with the woman that sat down beside them I have been here before, Sharon she paused to see if I was going to say anything which I didn because it didn't surprise me She took a deep breath continuing "I not only have I been here before its my house" Now that revelation made me choke on my drink. I couldn't believe what she had said.1 mean April has done some crazy things in her life but this was not what I was expecting April and I have been friends since junior high and she always managed to get us in trouble sone how some way. We went to the mall and got our ears pierced without permission, we went to New York and back without our parents knowing and this was before we were 12 years old April was a single woman,never been married or in a serious relationship and she preferred to stay that way. She owned a very lucrative business but always kept the details to a minimum we always called her our Tommy, you know from the show Martin. At 31 she had the face and the body of a young and perky 21 year old and always kept in the company of wealth whether it was men or women. She could be a bitch at times and had a way with words. She only let her guard down with me and I am the only one who can call her out if needed. "Your house?", I asked while looking her square in the eyes. "OK tell me what's going on April and don't leave anything out" "This is my lucrative business. I have houses all over the country and two in Brazil I am the sole owner and operator of Ultimate Pleasure Zones Inc. Each house has different names per the house managers request and various state laws. I approve all major decisions regarding pricing locations.themes,ete. I keep detailed records of cach and every person that comes in and out my doors and use my very risque services She took a sip of her cocktail, sighed, and continued, "Sharon, I have some very high profiled customers that if any of their names were to be ever released well I will put it to ya like this, it wont be pretty" "Wow April, what possessed you to get into this business"" Before I could get her answer Marcus, Joel, and his other two equally fine friends, Andrew Crimson and Amir Warrens, approached us with Rhonda and Michelle in tow. Andrew was a chocolate Adonis standing about 6' feet even. He had locks that were midway down his back with old eyes. Amir was gorgeous with L.Ls' lips, Denzels' walk, Tyrese's body, and Vin Diesels voice. Well well ladies you missed the tour but I see you have made yourself comfortable here at the bar. I hope you don't mind if we all join your private party", Marcus said "No not at all.", I said but the look on Michelle's face read that she wanted to be anywhere but that house Joel noticed her expression as well, "What's wrong birthday girl? Are you not enjoying yourself like your friends?" She looked at him as if he was the only one in the whole room and replied, "This isn't what I expected and I a lil too drunk and I really need to go home" "Would you like to go outside with me and get some fresh air?" "Yeah that would be quite nice Joel" She and Joel left leaving the rest of us at the bar til this day I believe that Joel really developed true feelings for my friend but was unable to act upon them. Rhonda,not wanting the party to end ordered us a round of drinks as she surveyed the room. Little did she know that she was also being observed from the couple sitting on the round couch across from the bar. The woman, appearing to be of Hispanic decent, walked up to Rhonda and said, "Excuse me but we couldn't help but noticed how fine you are... umm are you here with anyone?" Rhonda was shocked that a woman was saying these things to her but was intrigued when she mentioned 'we' and motioned towards the gentleman on the couch. Yeah I am here with my friends but no one exclusively Why do you k to join us on the rosand couch maybe get to know each other "Well, we wanted to know if you wanted t a little better the woman said in sexy breathy voice. Rhonda thought process was either cloudy or clear but either way the had made her mind up the minute she walked through the doors to that house she was going to get inter something "Sure would you mind if I brought someone with me?" "The more the merrier, the woman said with an easy laugh Rhonde grabbed the hand of Andrew and off they went to the couch leaving April and 1 with Marcus and Amir That Rhonda is something else, Amir stated smiling as if he held a juicy secret, "Well its just the four of us would you ladies like to get the tour that missed Of course I wanted to see the house that was part of my best friends empire but April didn't seems as excited so I relased a little and said, "Only if April wants to", I gave her my sad little puppy eyes, which she could never say no to and she reluctantly shook her ves Walking past Rhonda and her company towards the winding black stairs. Once at the top it seemed like we entered a totally different scene, it was a brighter with less people wandering about. There wasn't many sounds coming from the doors which had names on them. We were greeted by a pretty Caucasian woman with green gray eyes with a flirtatious smile wearing a black skin tight cat suit with a clipboard Without looking up she said, "Can I have your names please "Mitry we already on the list we have two more umm guest with us, "Amir stated She finally looked up to see who she was talking to her when she recognized April "Well, hello Ms Reynolds, haven't seen you in a while things have bee-" April interrupted Mitzy before she could continue, You have me mistaken for someone else she said in a tone that said shut up She understood the tone and immediately apologized and let them through without checking the clipboard to ensure that Marcus or Amir names were present "Well that was interesting Ms. April, you certainly have a way with words", Marcus said as he looked at Amir At the time I paid the look no attention because I could tell my friend was upset although it didn't show on her face. That look spoke volumes and had we been paying attention the situation would be much different "Are you alright April?"I asked in low whisper as we followed Marcus and Amir down the hall "No. Mitzy knows the protocol do not under any circumstances announce my presence unless I acknowledge her first." "Why "Sometimes I bring clients in under false pretenses so that they will feel more comfortable or I may be doing a business negotiations of sorts either way my employees know not to speak unless 1 speak to them first period. I am going have to fire her "she said in a serious tone I wanted to ask more questions but we arrived at a door that said "The Ecstasy Room' "Ladies first, "Amir said while holding the door like a true gentleman. The room was spacious with gold purple, and reds throughout. There were large throw pillows and chiffon everywhere. A table was to our left filled with everything a person needed to have a safe yet pleasurable time and to our right a stocked bar. A large hooka was in the middle of the room with group of four women surrounding it kissing and touching on each other. "Do like what you see Ms. Sharon?", Marcus asked caressing my arms and neck as he spoke. His touch felt so good not sure if it was the liquor or what but I started to imagine what it felt like if he was touch something else on me. "Yes this room is beautiful", I answered knowing that he was referring to the women. We sat on the pillows close to the goody table and it seemed April was more relaxed "This is a very peaceful room so far the best room in the house" she said "I am glad that it is to your liking April" Marcus replied Amir had went to the bar and returned with four whiskey sours and a bottle of coconut rum on a tray accompanied with with six glasses "Why do you have six glasses Amir?" "Oh Joel and your friend Michelle should be joining us soon" As if on cue they came through the door both with big grins on their faces. "What's with the grins you two?", April asked They looked at each other like they had to ask each other permission then Michelle said, "We saw Rhonda and Andrew go into a room called 'Let's Get It On' with a tall Hispanic woman and her handsome boyfriend" "I hope she has fun I always knew she was a freak", April said laughing at the thought of what Rhonda could be doing "You seem in better spirits Michelle, what did Joel do to you.", Marcus stated Joel and Michelle just smiled at each neither replied to Marcus observation instead just snuggled on one of the enormous pillows as Amir handed them a glass filled with rum. "I propose a toast", Amir said, "To life's' little surprises" We raised our glasses to the toast not knowing the full extent of that toast but knowing that the night was just getting started for some of us CHAPTER 2 JUST FORGET ABOUT IT Rhonda
