Tolerance (Heart of Stone) (24 page)

We approached the doors to The Black Panther and my
stomach was in knots with what I was about to do. We entered into a small plush
reception area “Hi” I smiled to the large suited surly man who was seated
behind a glass partition “Erm do we have to be members to enter?” I asked
timidly and he gave me the briefest of nods “Oh, well I’m actually here to see
Mr Jackson” I winced slightly as his eyes narrowed on me.

Nate took a step forwards so he was stood beside me
protectively “Do you have an appointment?” he asked, peering at me curiously
“Well not really, he just told me to turn up” I gave him my best smile but he
shook his head slowly “Oh come on” I grumbled “Please. Can you at least give
him a quick ring to see if he’ll see me?” I pleaded but he shook his head again
“Mr Jackson is busy” he growled, obviously getting irate with my persistence.

I sighed heavily and Nates hand settled around the top of
my arm “Come on Ava” he shrugged at me “Please, I really need to see him” I persevered,
wishing I had had the foresight to obtain Williams number when I saw him in the
restaurant that time “No” he said angrily just as a door behind him opened and
a woman entered, laughing and nodding as William entered behind her. He took a glance
at me and a huge smile broke out on his face “Miss Stone, what a pleasant
surprise” he said happily as he crossed through a door and joined us in the
reception

“I was just asking your doorman if I could have a quick
word” I told him as he embraced me, kissed me on the cheek and nodded to Nate
and Liv “Of course Miss Stone. Come on” he entered a number into a door lock
system and opened the door through to the main area “Beverley could you bring
drinks through to my office sweetheart please?” he spoke to the woman who
smiled at me pleasantly “Of Course, what would you like?” she asked me politely
“Just a water please” I replied and Nate and Liv declined.

We entered into a long corridor furnished with several
small sofa’s on each wall and a few doors but William led us through a door at
the end and into a bar area. A long bar ran along one edge and the floor was
filled with numerous different shaped tables, each had a number on a little
stand and a pole speared straight through the centre of it from floor to
ceiling. I was relieved to see normal people scattered about, I had awful
visions of naked people entangled and writhing about but it all seemed
perfectly normal until walking further in and taking a little more notice.

I could make out several high class women at the tables
and they were each flanked by several men who were paying them the ultimate
attention and I realised they were part of the entertainment or services,
whichever way you looked at it.

William led us over to the bar and gestured to a tall
dark haired guy “Owen, could you show these guests around for me please and see
that they have everything they need” he ordered gently and the barman nodded
“Of course Mr Jackson” he smiled to Nate and Liv “Would you like to follow me
and we’ll see if we can find something that takes your fancy?” he said frankly,
no hint of awkwardness “I’ll see you later” I said to them and Nate took my
hand “Ava, take care and ring me if you need anything” he said anxiously and I
smiled gently “I’m fine Nate, I’m in good hands with Mr Jackson”

William nodded at Nate “I promise to take good care of
her Sir” he assured Nate “Would you like to follow me Miss Stone” William said
and steered me towards a door at the side of the room, his hand placed gently
as the base of my spine.

He punched in another code into the lock system at the
side of the door and we entered into another long passageway, and William
turned into the first door on the right, taking us into a huge office.

It was ginormous and surprisingly warm and inviting in
reds, browns and creams. What did grab my attention was the huge wooden four
poster bed placed against one wall in the same colour lined as the decor, a
large mirror directly above it on the ceiling and a soft red couch at the end
of the bed, situated so it was facing the bed.

“Wow, this is great” I beamed, scanning the room “I
always thought ceiling mirrors sounded a bit tacky but it’s actually quite subtle”
William gave a slight chuckle “Would you care for a lie down and see for
yourself?” he asked seriously and I nodded giddily.

I approached the bed and lay down, shuffling myself into
the middle and stared at the ceiling “Wow” I laughed “I am going to have to
invest in one of these. I would love to see Masons arse clench mid-orgasm” I
sighed dreamily and William laughed loudly and I stared wide eyed “Did I just
say that out loud?” I gasped and he smiled at me “I appreciate your openness
and honesty Miss Stone” he held his hand out to help me off the bed “Please
call me Ava” I said as we walked over to a large leather couch.

I walked straight passed the couch and approached a
series of TV screens on the wall. There were twelve in total, each one
displaying a room or area in the club and some of the larger screens were spilt
into four smaller images and I gasped at the pictures “WOW!” I breathed.

There were naked bodies everywhere, most in some sort of
sexual position or kinky role playing outfits and scenes. William came to stand
beside me and I could feel him studying my face as I glanced at each one “This
is seriously hot” I exclaimed and I heard him chuckle quietly. “Would you like
a tour after our discussion Ava?” he asked and I nodded eagerly “Yes please” I
grinned at him and there was a small knock and the woman from reception entered
with a tray and placed it on the coffee table in front of the couch “Anything
else William?” she asked and he shook his head “That’s it for now Beverley,
Thank you” he smiled warmly at her and she nodded and smiled at me and then
left.

William gestured to the couch and I sat down as he poured
my water into a glass full of ice and handed it to me “How’s Mason?” he asked
and then frowned at my expression and I sighed heavily “I’m going to come
straight out with it Mr Jackson” I glanced at him “I need your help”

“This is the communal area” William said as we entered a
huge circular room. The centre consisted of numerous beds, sofas, benches and
chairs and what looked like hundreds of bodies were participating in different
sex acts. We were situated above the area on a raised gallery that encircled the
room for people to spectate; chairs and sofas were scattered around as we
walked the platform and there were also people having sex on the couches up
here.

The erotic sounds of men and women’s heightened pleasure
enveloped us my heart rate spiked “It’s really quite erotic, isn’t it?” I
whispered in Williams ear and he smiled softly and nodded “You will have to
visit with Mason, Ava, then you can really appreciate it or I could always find
a partner now for you if would like?” he offered directly but I shook my head
“I’d rather wait for Mason but thanks for the offer” I said to him even though
I couldn’t take my eyes off the expanse of entangled limbs below us.

William escorted me through a door and we entered what
could be mistaken for a hotel lobby. A reception desk spanned one long wall
with at least four receptionists on duty. A large staircase rose from the
middle of the room and the waiting area was furnished with several couches.
William approached one of the receptionists and had a quiet word and then led
me up the stairs and through a door into a corridor.

There were doors on each side but each room also
consisted of a large window to observe the performances inside, it reminded me
of a nursery in a hospital and I smiled inwardly knowing the there would be no
babies to gape at through these windows. “We have a couple of corridors full of
private rooms and four similar to this one” William told me as we strolled down
the passageway and I peered into each window as we passed.

There were three rooms full of soft BDSM equipment;
crosses on the walls, hooks and chains dangling from the ceilings and tables,
benches and a bed. The next three had a large bed in the centre and were
furnished in Victorian features and I smiled as I took in the performance
inside.

 
There were two
ladies dressed in long velvet corsets, a man was also dressed for the era and
he had both the women bent over the bed and gave one of the women a single
thrust before moving onto the next one, and proceeded back and forth between
them

“I think they might be here all night at that rate” I
whispered to William who gave me a hearty laugh “Some people enjoy slow and
long Ava” he winked and I shrugged in acceptance.

I glanced into the opposite window and my eyebrows shot
high. It was furnished with a cot, high chair a changing mat but each item was
large enough to accommodate an adult “Different” I murmured as we moved on to
look into the others and the scenes got more unusual until we reached a room
that sent a shiver up my spine.

William sensed my anxiety and nodded at me “This is the
one Ava” he told me and I forced myself to watch the scene unfolding inside.
The room was shrouded in a dark red lighting, and the walls were padded in red
leather. There was no furniture in here, just a large open space but a woman
was tied, spread eagled on a circular frame suspended in the middle of the room
completely naked as a man in a black leather mask circled around her. He held a
long brown leather whip in his hand as he trailed the handle against her
stomach, over her breasts and then down her back and over her buttocks.

I flinched when all of a sudden he cracked the whip and
slashed it across her back powerfully. Her head shot back as she screamed and
he immediately whipped her again, two hard cracks before he stalked round to
the front of her and lunged for a breast with his mouth and she groaned loudly
as he sucked and bit on each nipple before returning to the rear of her and
treat her to another two lashes but repeated the action, this time giving her
four thrashes before paying attention to her pert nipples and as he sucked he
slipped the handle between her legs and fucked her brutally with it. Her head
flung back, I could see the muscles in her thighs and face tighten as she came
loudly and wildly before he returned to the back of her and started the routine
again

“Wow” I shivered “I must say she came pretty hard but
still not my type of thing” William smiled at me “Everybody has different
tastes Ava, some like it truly soft and slow and some can’t orgasm until
they’re nearly crippled in pain” he explained and guided me to the door at the
end of the corridor and into a large cinema room.

Instead of a blockbuster playing on the huge screen it
was hard porn. Nearest to the screen there were rows of traditional cinema
chairs, further towards the middle of the room, loveseats sat side by side and
then to the rear were curtained booths fitted with a bed in each “This is
great, I like this room” I divulged as I watched the close up of a man’s large
and erect penis sliding into a freshly waxed vagina.

A few couples were situated at the front of the room and
each woman was sat straddled across their partner’s laps, riding them hard. I
glanced towards the back at the booths and cringed as I saw Liv straddled
across Nates legs on a bed, bobbing up and down in fury

“Okay…I need to leave this part William. I really don’t
want to watch my friends having sex” I cringed and hoped to god they hadn’t
seen me. He chuckled but nodded and led me out of the room and back into the
bar

“We do have other areas Ava but I’ll leave those as a
surprise for when you visit with Mason” I smiled appreciatively and perched
onto a bar stool. The barman from earlier came over “Would you like a drink
Miss?” he asked politely “I’ll have a cranberry and soda please” I smiled and
reached for my purse “On me, Ava” William scowled and turned to Beverley who
had just approached. She leant into him and whispered something and he turned
to me “I’m so sorry Ava but I have to deal with something that needs my
attention” he said with an apologetic expression “No that’s fine William, thank
you so much for your help” I said sincerely and he nodded “We just have to wait
now Ava but I promise I’ll be in touch as soon as I have something for you” he
smiled and kissed my cheek “Owen, could you keep an eye on Miss Stone until her
friends return please” he said to the barman and then nodded at me and left,
flanked by Beverley.

I decided to text Kerrie as I waited for the ‘Humping
Bunnies’

ME

Hi, just a reminder
for Monday, I’ll pick you up at 4

Xxx
    

She replied saying that she hadn’t forgotten I was taking
her and I texted Nate to say I was ready when they were but I didn’t expect to
see them for a while. Then I text Courtney, dreading what I knew she would ask
after my text

ME

Hey Hun, are you
okay to attend my antenatal on Thursday? 1:00pm

Xxx

COURTNEY

That’s no problem
babe but won’t Mason be going with you?

Xxx

ME

No xxx

COURTNEY

Okay…I’ll ring you
tonight!

Luv ya xxx

Well that went easier than I thought “You need another
drink Miss?” the barman asked as he perused me. I shook my head “Is it usually
this quiet in here?” I asked and looked around at the few scattered people
“It’s early yet, we don’t busy up until about 11ish” he divulged as he wiped
some glasses and I spotted Nate and Liv stroll through a door. She glanced up
at me and blushed furiously.
