Chapter VI

I arrive at the Boston airport around 9 AM. My friend Ben, who is a childhood friend actually, is waiting for me in his car. I get inside and let him drive without any direction whatsoever.

“Good to see you, mate,” he says to me with a smile on his face.

“Nice to finally see you after all this time! How much was it? One year?” I say.

“Yes, around that, mate. You know I was busy in Asia.”

“Oyea! How was it there? I heard thinks are getting better and better in the East.” I check my phone as I talk with Ben, trying to see where I need to go.

“Yes, it’s true, and the people are more open to foreigners now,” he says as he stops at a red light. He gets a cigar from his jacket pocket and lights it up. The smoke escapes out the opened window, dispersing into the air.

“Bro, look at this, you know this place?” I ask as I show him the phone. He looks at the address for a couple of seconds then says he knows it. Good.

“I went there a few times, the place is ok, a little remote but I think we are ok.”

We arrive at the place in short time, parking the car a little farther away. We get out and make our way to the restaurant. I got a laptop with me, which I need for this transaction. We enter the place and sit down at a table. A young waitress comes and welcomes us. We order some aperitifs and wait. After 20 minutes, one guy enters the place and walks directly at us. He sits down as if we know him for ages. I stare at him, analyzing every movement and expression he makes. Ben is chilling with a glass of whisky and a cigar. We confirm his identity and I get my laptop out and put it on the table. The guy gives me a USB and I introduce it. We wait and there it is, a code that disables the security to a specific location. I nod at the guy in sign of confirmation, and he slightly smiles. I hand him over a piece of paper. He gets his phone out and checks if all is ok. It is, the money is transferred. He nods at us and gets up. He leaves without looking back. Ben asks me if all is good. I say yes and we ask for the note. We leave and make our way to Ben’s house. The last time I was here, three years ago, I remember being so drunk I couldn’t even stand up straight. It was pathetic but that night was crazy fun. I had a threesome and partied till the house was down. I wish the people I know would still do shit like that, but no, they too busy nowadays with work, business, and making lots of money to spend of their stupid wife’s. It makes me laugh when I see them so serious, so stiff, I can cry of pity for them. Ben’s house looks relatively the same as three years ago, of course with some minor changes. I like it, the old days, the good days.

“Why you need that code, bro,” Ben asks me in a discreet way, knowing the information is sensible. The sun razes strike down the objects in the living room, creating an illusion of pressure, of stillness. I feel the same, trapped into a circle, unable to escape its power.
There are too many strings attached on me
.

“Its not for me, I just did the transaction. Get 100k for it, so it’s ok.” I put the laptop on the table, not even looking at the shit I bought. I could make a copy and ask for some more money but fuck it; I don’t have time or the will to do so. I would not be professional either, so whatever. I just need the money they offered. Money, these pieces of paper kill people, destroys families, even nations. It’s sad what dominion the conception was over the world. I stand on my feet, not even wanting to sit down, so disgusted I am of my life, the life of all around me. If I was strong enough; I am not; I would break free from this web of spiders and corruption. My level of melancholy just shot through the roof. I need to see Alice, to ease my pain, the feel heat once more, because the world is cold, too cold for the week and naive. Done with this, I should just make the final step, and end this whole deal. I’m tired of it all. I wonder how my big brother can do this all day every day. I’m sure he even enjoys this kind of things. Good for him, I guess. I thank Ben for the help; he returns the thanks with a strong handshake, just like in the old days when he rescued me from all kinds of situations. He was always there for me; I don’t know why we drifted apart but I will try to reconnect with him more from now on.

“I can always count on you, bro, always.” I say this to him and leave, not looking back. I walk to the nearest taxi driver, get into the car and tell the guy to take me to my office. I work for a company, my brothers company. I am the manager of this branch, but I let all the technical stuff to my co-manager, a guy that is under direct supervision of my brother. So, I don’t do much, not at much as I should; it’s easy. Stepping inside the building everybody salutes me, like I am a god or something. I find this so lowly, bowing before someone you don’t really know. I nod my head left and right, greeting this simple mob of people. As I get on the last floor, my secretary sees me from afar and welcomes me in her own way. Jane is the only person in this place that knows me and understands me for what I am. I like her so much, the way he takes care of me whenever I feel down, not ever pushing me into doing nothing I don’t want to. I can seek refuge to her at any time of the day or night. She’s forever there for me, when I need her, as I do now. I hug her tight, and lean my head on her shoulder. She immediately resonates with me.

“O baby, what’s the problem? Why are you so down today?” she asks me with her soft voice, music to my ears. I slowly walk into my office, inviting her to join me. We both sit down on the couch, she caressing my cheek with her gentle touch. Jane, former psychiatrist, age 31, working for me four years now.

“Its nothing. I need to let it go, you know.” I whisper into her ear, like I’m in pain, barely able to speak. She grabs my head with both her hands and looks at me from arms length.

“Still pretty as ever, so I don’t see the problem, babe.”

I break into a small laugh.

“See, it’s all better, you don’t have to be sad. Think about what makes you happy, what you live for. How is Alice doing?” I stare at her with my sad eyes, she with her cheery ones.

“She is waiting for me at home. I invited her to live with me after she got kicked out from her old place. It’s complicated.”

“See, Levi dear, all is ok, you got people waiting for you, people that love you for who you are. You don’t need be sad one more second. Look at me, hey, let me see you smile.” I gaze into her green eyes, absorbed by the deepness of them, like an ocean on a stormy day. After hearing all that she said, I regain some composure, now understanding that, of course, life is not as hard as I make it be. I am one lucky bastard. So many don’t have any hope for happiness, but not me; I can make it happen. I smile at Jane, she smiles back at me, radiating as the sun. I slowly move forward, our heads two inches apart, and without thinking about it, I kiss her on the mouth, a chaste kiss. She lets me do it, embracing my lips but at the same time not lingering too much. She backs off after a couple of seconds, reminding me about Alice. I nod at her in sign of understanding. She caresses my face, every touch of her giving me vital life power, power that I need so desperately at this moment in my life. She leaves me alone in my office, she returning at her desk that is of course, close. I try to start doing some work, hopping I can forget about all this. Short after this, I get a call; it’s my brother, my big brother, Samuel.

“Yes?” I respond with a low deep voice, attempting to sound strong.

“Levi, how are you? Are you at the office?” he asks me.

“Yes, I am. What do you need from me? I got what you asked for. I will send it to you in a moment.” I look at the laptop that sits on my table, cold and inanimate.

“Good, but I am calling for something else. Someone told me that two months from now, there will be held a very private meeting with all the powerful men of the Euro-Asia District Channel. I will find out where this meeting will be. You need to show up there and tell them something very important. I will send you the information on a private line.”

“But, we aren’t a part of that group.”

“Indeed, we are not, but the one you will be talking about, is. That’s all brother; I will send the information in the next week. Take care of yourself; I can sense the despair in your voice from a mile away. You are pathetic. Bye bye,” he says and hangs up the phone. He is true, but I will show him otherwise. He will see who is Levi Noble.

I finish my work one hour later and I’m ready to go home - to Alice.

I arrive at the door of my house, the house a bought five years ago, from my own money, the money I worked hard for, almost lost my life, but it was worth it; or was it? I open it, and enter. No one in sight, no sound to hear. I slowly walk across the living room and step by step, I reach my room. I hope Alice is here; I listen for a second to see if anyone is inside. Nothing, I drop my head down but still, with a shred of hope I enter the room. I raise my head and find Alice laying on the bed, half naked, smoking hot. She’s sleeping like a baby, so slowly she is breathing, so beautiful her face is, it makes me smile with joy. I let her sleep a little more. I go into the bathroom and get changed plus take a long shower, relaxing all my muscles, drowning all the stress of the day. Done with this I return to Alice, just to find her still sleeping. I get next to her, so close a can feel her breathing and heartbeats. I kiss her on the forehead and then on the lips. She opens her eyes, sleepy but wonderful eyes.

“Hey,” I say to her, every letter that I pronounce more powerful that the last. “I miss you so much.”

“Hi, Levi, welcome home,” she says with a soft voice, eyes haft closed. She gets up, her hands on the bed. I too stand up and go in for a kiss. She lets me kiss her for a second, and then backs off, slowly pushing me away. A fire erupts in her eyes, like none I’ve seen before. I stand amazed, unable to think of anything to do.

“Don’t touch me. Did I tell you to do so?” The words come out of her mouth, even she wondering what she just said.

“What?” I ask puzzled. Now she gets on her feet, standing firm on her idea. I try to grab her legs and pull her down on the bed, but she pushes my head in the bed, stopping me from doing so. She backs away a step, looking at me like I’m a peasant and she a queen.

“My queen, what have I done to deserve such punishment? Let me touch you like always and I will obey your command now and forever,” I say entering the role she wants me to. She stares at me, cold blue eyes, not knowing what to do.

“Hmm…, is that so, peasant, you dare talk with me, speak such words in front of me. Insolence! You need to be taught a lesson, for you to remember long from now.” Hearing her determinate voice, strong but feminine, makes me go crazy. I can feel my erection growing in my pants.

“Off the bed and on your knees, now!”

I do as she says. With slow moves I get off the bed and kneel in front of her. I raise my head up high, my eye line around her abdomen. I inhale her exquisite scent. The muscles in her face are frozen – cold as her eyes.
I queen she is
. I go in to touch her tights but as I do so she swiftly stops me in my tracks.

“Know your place, little dog. You bite the hand that feeds you? Drop your head on the floor!”

I oblige and let her take full control of the situation. This is exalting. Never have I done this before, and I don’t think I will do it again, without Alice, of course. Being in this position enables me to let go of the strings that need and always will be needed to stay attached. At this moment, I can free myself from the pressure of the job I have, from the expectations of my big brother, from all the wrongs I’ve been submitted to or I have submitted.

“Listen to me. Now I will go and take a bath. Wait here for ten minutes and then join me. I will punish you there, do not worry.”

I let her leave.

I sit on the bed, in anticipation of what is to come. The desire of her is building up inside of me. I crave her touch now, more than ever before. This game is surely working way to well. I should have tried it long ago but with whom? Maybe Brooke, my only true love that I have all this years I’ve been on this earth.

In 25 years, only Brooke made me feel as Alice does now.

The ten minutes pass in a blink of an eye, so I head to the bathroom. I step inside and My God, a goddess stands in front of me, wet with foam around her intimate zones. She does not face me, but looks the other way.

Sensing my presence, she slowly lays down in the bathtub, with the hair outside the Jacuzzi.

“Come closer.”

I quickly do as she says, adrenaline spiking my senses.

“On your knees.”

I let myself fall down but say. “Again?”

“Did I tell you to speak? No, so don’t do it!”

My lips feel numb as I sit there, my eyes on her hair. I can’t see anything else now, for she is submerged in the water.
