Midnight At The Barclay Hotel Novels & Stories

"Where am I taking you?" "Barbara Hotel," I replied. I and Max had decided to meet at Barbara Hotel for the party his friend was hosting. It had been planned for weeks, and I was not about to let Ethan steal that too. I needed something normal. I needed an afternoon that had nothing to do with him. "Okay, noted," the driver said. The drive to Barbara Hotel was long. I stared out the window the whole way, watching the streets blur past, trying to let my mind go quiet. By the time the car slowed and the hotel came into view, I had almost convinced myself I was free for the afternoon.

Since Jeremy was tipsy from the dinner, David was was now in charge of persuading the guests to drink more. Nightclubs were quiet different from restaurants. The guests maintained a sanctimonious attitude in the restaurant abd finally dropped the pretense in the nightclub. Barbara got up and went outside when she saw someone pinned a young lady down on the couch. It was much quieter outside. Barbara tried to stay far away from the box. She leaned against the wall, took off her glasses abd rubbed her eyes. All of a sudden, a man appeared in front of her, "Beauty!" Barbara was startled. She focused her eyes and saw a man with boozy breath was staring at her with his lecherous eyes. He was Keat

Agatha was with Mickey, staying past dismissal to clean PERSEPHONE-11 while Isa took a nap in the corner. At 6:31, no visible sunlight in the sky remained aside from the faded twinkle of the stars and the occasional blink of flight-crafts. The Midnight Club made a rendezvous on the 7-11 a block away from Van Duke. Dean was there first, carrying a knapsack that contained two bottles of pink gin and a stack of disposable cups. Gwyneth came five minutes after, then Mickey, then Isaac, then Agatha, and Isa. “Yes, we’re fucking rulebreakers that’s what we are,” Dean laughed.

“Bring me a bottle of bourbon. I want to get drunk tonight." After driving for three hours aimlessly, Xander decided to stop at a bar with tacky neon lights that he found after exiting the interstate. The bar was next door to the Holliday Inn, which was offering empty rooms for forty dollars a night. Xander saw that the Holliday Inn was founded not to attract tourists who needed a place to stay during their long journey, but to attract bar patrons who needed an empty room for a few hours of satisfying sex.

Bonus Chapter 30 – Roleplay: Strangers at the Bar (Round 2,) (Eli POV – 1012 words) The hotel bar was dimly lit, the kind of place where people came to forget or be forgotten — dark wood, amber sconces, low jazz humming from hidden speakers. The crowd was sparse: a few suits nursing drinks, a couple laughing softly in the corner. I sat at the far end of the counter — alone, deliberately — sipping a gin and tonic I barely tasted. Black button-down open at the collar, sleeves rolled, jeans tight enough to remind me why I’d chosen them. My ring glinted under the low light, but tonight it didn’t matter. Tonight we were strangers.

I gave him an eyebrow raise but nevertheless accepted his suggestion. “ I really need to clear my head, get the car ready, I will be going to the Hot bar,” I instructed before proceeding to take my shower in the bathroom. Hot bar is a popular stripper club for the rich group and that is exactly what I need to cool my head off right now. The ride to the bar was very peaceful and quiet, we met very few cars on the road and that was understandable, given that it's almost midnight. “ You are welcome sir,” the bartender greeted me as soon as I arrived. I signaled him to bring my usual to my private room while I settled back to enjoy the show that was about to unfold.

I swallowed the lump in my throat, holding back from touching him. “Do you need help taking that off?” He pointed to the chains around my neck. I remembered that the chains were clasped at the back. I stilled, hating the fact that I would have to let him help. I nodded. “Turn around.” I did, and kept my head down, both to give him better access but also to hide the blush on my face. He took his time and his fingers glided across the skin of my shoulders. He let the chains fall into the water without even attempting to get them.

“Want to sit in on the meetings today? They’re boring, but with you there time will go by faster.” I snuggled back under the covers. “I think I’ll sleep in today.” He didn’t push me. After kissing me goodbye, he left for his meetings. Once he was gone, I got up and quickly got dressed. I had no intention of staying in bed all day. I only said that so Asher wouldn’t ask too many questions. Now, while he was tied up in the conference room, I was going to meet Cyrus. *** Midtown Bar was in the busiest part of the city. By midnight, it would be packed with people looking for a one night stand. But right now at 8 PM, the night hadn’t officially started yet. The bar was quiet with only a few staff
