Chapter 4

June's 5am alarm rang and she woke up with a jolt. She was laying in bed, in an unknown place and with a....man? It took her a few minutes for her brain to catch on with her environment and she started remembering. A man had approached her after her performance and made an offer she couldn't refuse which had landed her in the room she was in at the moment. Morals weren't exactly a driving force when the arrangement ended up with way more than she could have earned working all three jobs for a year.

   The plan was to wake up earlier than the stranger and leave before he woke up but somehow she had over slept. June was grateful the alarm had woken her up and not the man, she wasn't sure she wanted him to see her face. If he didn't know her identity, it was going to make it easier for her to shove the whole encounter into a far side of her mind and focus on other important things.

   Along with June's clothes, her mask was laying on the floor next to the bed and she was surprised to see the stranger sleeping peacefully even after her alarm had rang so loudly she had thought the fire alarm in the hotel had gone off or something. June sighed as she stood and took a quick look at the sleeping human and thought not for the first time since she met the man, how handsome and perfect he looked.

   The fact that those strong arms had held her as those lips trailed kisses down her spine and all over her body made her hot and she quickly chided herself for having such explicit thoughts when she should be thinking of more important things. Her mind went to the hospital along with the call she had received the previous night from her mum's doctor and she quietly stumbled off the bed and into the bathroom.

    Involuntary thoughts and images about the previous night flooded her mind as she splashed water on her face, brushed her teeth and stepped into the shower. Her mind wasn't collaborating with her body and she couldn't help but daydream about the encounter with the strange man. June was very sure  she wasn't going to forget about it anytime soon, that much she was very sure of but she didn't know if it bothered her or if it excited her.

   The man's kiss was way too gentle, his hands felt like they were made to hold her and when he entered her as he looked into her eyes? June was very sure she had orgasmed right then and there. How was he so precise, so accurate, mildly rough but yet so so gentle?

   The man's eyes had told her the encounter was more than casual to him but June wasn't sure of anything. Besides, she was 100 percent sure he was drunk, was it the alcohol that made him act the way he did? Or was he in his right state of mind?  It all felt surreal and crazy to her but June knew there wasn't time to dwell on how good the sex was or how much she wanted to go back and lay cuddled up in his arms.

   After he had made her cum over and over again, He went ahead and wrapped her up  and for the first time in a very long time, June slept like a child. But there were more pressing matters to attend to and she wouldn't get to attend to them if she stayed in the bathroom daydreaming about a manshe had no intentions of seeing ever again.

   As she went back to the room to gather up her things, she was surprised to find another cheque on the desk. He had written her yet another hundred thousand dollars cheque. Who exactly was this man and what were his intentions with her?

   Sometimes, the weight of working at a strip club was hard to bear and June was quite delicate, in some aspects though. She took a glance at the watch on her wrist and was surprised it had gotten so late already. The strangeman had definitely wasted quite a lot of her time with his silly proposal but the sex was worth it and she had somehow ended up getting more than she bargained for.

   Triple her earnings was quite a whole ass load of money but the man had written a hundred dollars cheque for her. Not just one cheque, he had written two but she wasn't going to fall for whatever trick he was playing. Growing up wasn't easy for her, life hasn't been a bed of roses for June Skylar but she had learnt go be content with whatever she had at quite a young age and that was what was going to make her resist the amazing opportunity that was sitting pretty on the drawer in front of her.

   As she rode the elevator out to the first floor of the hotel, she couldn't stop thinking about the stranger and the once in a lifetime experience she had just had. There are some things you do without thinking and agreeing to sleep with a total stranger for money was one of them. June knew her mum wasn't going to be proud of her choices but at least she wasn't going to be dead. It didn't matter how she got the money, all the mattered was that the bills were being settled.

   "Would you like to leave a message for Mr Stahom when he wakes up?" The receptionist asked June as she walked into the lobby. Did she want to leave a message?

   June gave the lady her brightest smile, "No, there's no need. Thank you" There really wasn't any need for him to know her identity, they weren't supposed to see each other ever again.

   With the mask stuffed into her tote bag and a new set of clothes which she had changed into back at the hotel, June Skylar looked like a totally different person as she walked out of the hotel to hail a taxi. Who would have thought she was a stripper that had just had a crazy one night stand for the opportunity to save her mum's life?
