Performance (1)

As the ladies drank and waited in anticipation for Nadia to unleash her inner vixen, across the room the man was watching them intently.

The three women were all exquisite beauties, but while all three of them were extraordinarily beautiful the one with the piercing gold like eyes drew his attention. Her face looked like it had been sculpted by the gods themselves but her eyes were cold. The aura she gave off was powerful; you could feel she wasn't just anybody you could just casually approach. The other two women seemed more amicable and friendly both laughing showing their pearly white teeth. Only the one in the middle did not laugh like them. Her smile was more calm, more amused than anything else.

He was unable to look away. He had never seen a woman like her before. Fire alarms were going off in his mind warning him to stay away from the woman. However he was too enchanted to care. He chuckled to himself because he knew if he wanted to even speak to her he'd have to expend a lot of energy.

But who doesn't love a challenge?

His interest was sufficiently peaked, he had to at least know her name.

He swirled the drink in his hand and sat back relaxing against the leather sofa, his eyes never leaving the corner where the ladies sat.

Meanwhile Nadia was racking her brain on how to approach him, he was sitting with a group of men all clad in expensive button downs and trousers, their expensive watches gleaming in the dark. The Adonis sat in the middle seemingly bored with the conversations around him quietly enjoying his drink.

She caught him looking in their direction, his dark eyes made her heart beat faster. He had such handsome features it hurt to look away. His sharp jaw, tall nose, sexy lips, full dark eyebrows and beard made him mouth watering. He had almond shaped eyes only adding more appeal to his features. His button down black shirt had three buttons undone exposing a sliver of his muscular chest. His arm muscles looked like they could rip the shirt he had on a pair of black trousers neatly ironed with leather shoes. He looked like he was tall even sitting down, he had no gold chain like his companions or expensive watch on. He was simply dressed with no accessories but he still looked like a million bucks.

His hair looked thick and luscious with some curls falling over his forehead in a messy manner only instead of making him look unkempt it added an extra level of sexiness.

God. How was he this fine? Nadia just couldn't fathom it. Even if he turned her down just speaking to him once would make her happy.

"I think I'll perform, would do you guys think?" Nadia asked.

Brie and Anai'ya looked at each other and smiled.

"Do it," they said in unison.

Nadia got up and walked over to the bar counter and asked to speak to the manager.

"Tell her Nadia has a request, make it quick" she told the bartender.

The manager walked over, she was a woman in her later thirties with a petite body and short hair. She was Madam Le'our she looked younger than her age. She was dressed in a red bodycon dress that reached her knees with black high heeled booties.

"Nadia dear, how can I help you?" Madam Le'our asked as she approached giving her a kiss on the cheek.

"I want to perform tonight. Think you can squeeze me in?" Nadia said with a mischievous smile.

"Baby you want to perform? Of course I can hun. What brought this on?" Madam Le'our laughed.

"Ohhh, nothing just trying to catch a fish." Nadia winked, her smile deepening.

Madam Le'our laughed again nodding her head knowingly. She knew Nadia's performance wouldn't just catch one tonight she'd have all the men in here drooling. However it was good for her business they'd end up buying more drinks and coming back in hopes of seeing Nadia again.

"You got it baby, come let's get you backstage" she turned leading Nadia backstage.

There was a room full of costumes and outfits, heels makeup and props all neatly arranged. Large vanity mirrors covered a large portion of the walls.

"Here pick whatever you want and let me know when you're ready. What kind of performance are you thinking of doing?" Madam asked sitting on the vanity desk.

"I'm going to sing," Nadia said.

Nadia walked around the room looking at all the outfits deciding on a dark red mini dress in satin. It was a simple dress with two straps and it was slightly loose towards the ends giving her legs freedom. She chose sheer black stockings and simple black heeled sandals.

"Oh?" Madam was a little confused. She thought Nadia would do a sexy dance on the swings or rings.

"You'll see Le'our" Nadia said winking at Madam.

"Okay hun I trust you. Do your thing I'll go prepare." Madam said, chuckling lightly and headed out.

Nadia looked at herself in the mirror admiring herself.

Nicely shaped breasts, long legs, a small waist, smooth skin and a pretty face. She was confident she could catch his attention. She opted to sing instead of dance on the swings, although she was able to she chose to sing to him.

She sat down and looked through her playlist trying to decide what song to sing. She had a really good singing voice and she could play the piano.

She chose to play a love song. For some reason she felt like showing him she wasn't just a sex icon but also had talent and well a love song was perfect it would set the mood.

Choosing to leave her makeup alone and just switch out her lipstick to wine red color. Loosening the curls in her hair somewhat making them a little messy she was ready.

Madam Le'our was on the stage letting the guests know she had a special surprise for them. Everyone knew she was the owner of Velvet and knew she would only let those who were worthy of her stage perform. Excitement began to fill the room.

Brie and Anai'ya were relaxed in their corner waiting for Nadia to come out. Whatever she had planned was sure to blow their minds. They decided to stand up and move a little closer once they saw her come out to show their support but careful to stay within sight of the man to see his expression once he saw the performance.

They had a duty to report back to Nadia.

"What do you think she's going to do?" Brie asked looking at the stage crossing her legs.

"I'm not sure" Anai'ya was curious to see as well.

She finished her drink and stood up, intending to head to the restroom.

"I'll be back"

"Mmm hurry back" Brie said.

Anai'ya made a beeline to the restrooms. Unknowingly a pair of dark eyes followed her every move in interest.

The man had seen one of the ladies get up and talk to Madam Le'our earlier. He had to admit the woman was very attractive, she looked like a model. He figured it was her performing because he saw her leave with Madam and head to the back. After hearing the announcement he was sure.

'How curious,' he thought to himself.

His eyes fell back to the table where the ice lady sat. She was chatting with the woman next to her smiling like a little cat. The woman next to her was also laughing and smiling along with her looking at the ice lady intently.

He didn't know what they were saying but he could sense the type of gaze the grey eyed woman looked at her friend with. It was all too familiar to him, figuring there might be a story there he continued to look at them.

He saw the ice lady stand up and head to the restroom. His eyes followed her every move, the way her hips swayed and the way she walked with her head high running her hand through her hair once. Even her backside was breathtaking to him.

As if led by an external force he stood up and headed to the restroom area and leaned against the wall pulling out a pack of cigarettes lighting one up.

He felt like a stalker waiting for her to come out but he knew this could be his only chance at talking to her he had to take it.

He waited for her, going through two cigarettes because he was nervous.
