Exercising his usual caution, Steve Hammer sat quietly in his car observing the customers entering the village barber's shop.
It seemed a perfectly normal establishment from the outside, just a small gent's hairdresser, but the number of clients seemed out of proportion to the size of the tiny community and, what's more, at least half of them were women.
He was a good-looking guy, in a swarthy sort of way.
Tall, dark and well built. He was accustomed to living off his wits.
Employed as a reporter by an international men's magazine, he specialised in sexual exposé. Sometimes his articles would reveal a scandal while, at other times, he simply wrote about his own adventures with the opposite gender.
He had a reputation as an intrepid stud, sporting oversized equipment that females fought over. If he was stuck for a story with a deadline to meet, he'd simply select and seduce the most comely woman available and then interview her about the experience.
His written exploits were so famous, featured under the title of 'The Hammer Challenge', that the publication was frequently inundated with letters from women volunteering to be his next subject.
However, this was apparently something else. His boss had received an anonymous tip-off that the address now being perused contained a story worthy of the front page.
'Don't ask me what it's about,' the editor had growled. 'I'm told you should ask for the special treatment and then see what happens.'
Okay, he thought with a sigh, let's go and see what they're hiding.
An old-fashioned hand bell mounted above the door clanged as he entered. Despite the volume of patronage that he'd witnessed entering the shop, there was one customer receiving a haircut and only two others waiting.
'Can I help you?' The stunning lass using the clippers paused from trimming her client's neck.
Steve eyed her quickly from head to toe.
Early twenties, blonde tresses, big boobs, short skirt stretched tight across a shapely rump and long slender legs leading to bare feet.
Oh, yes, he mused as his cock grew, I reckon you could be a big help to me!
'What can I do for you?' She smiled sexily, conscious of his appraisal, but impatient with his hesitation.
'I've come for a special,' he said speculatively.
'Oh, right,' she grinned knowingly and indicated to the far side of the room. 'Then it's Brenda you want. Through the door over there, down the passage and the waiting room is the second on the left. She won't keep you long.'
He'd barely settled himself into an armchair when the woman arrived. Short and slight, with long black hair that hung straight to her bum, she was beautiful. Wearing a silk dressing gown, she padded across to him on bare feet and knocked him dead with a smile that sent shivers up his spine and spasms along his dick.
'Hello, I've not seen you here before,' she murmured quietly. 'I take it you're from up the road?'
'Err, yea, that's right,' he mumbled, full of confusion. 'They told me to come for a special.'
'Yes, well they would, wouldn't they?' She smiled again, wrinkling her snub nose. 'You can't belong to the club without the treatment.'
'Of course not,' he replied, wondering what he'd let himself in for as he gazed into her doe eyes and attempted to hide his erection by leaning forward.
'Do you want a total, or a partial?'
'I'm not sure, what would you recommend?'
'Depends how much you've got,' Brenda said, 'how about we go next door and survey the situation?'
They entered a brightly-lit room, furnished as a hair salon, but with a single bed replacing the usual chair.
'Okay, strip off and let's take a look,' Brenda instructed in a business like way.
Still bewildered, Steve decided to follow the charade through to the end. Modestly, he turned his back to the woman and peeled off his clothing.
'Right, up onto the bed,' she ordered, coming around to face him as she slipped out of the robe.
He sat on the bed and gazed in awe at the figure in front of him. Slim, supple and sexy. Small, perfect breasts. Slender waist. Smooth, depilated crotch, as flawless as a split peach nestling between lean thighs.
Probably got some oriental parentage, he thought irrelevantly as his senses ran riot and his male appendage stretched for the ceiling.
