A note to readers:
This is a long story that unfolds chapter by chapter through the eyes of two protagonists - Mark and Elsa, and as in many of my other stories involves a growing spate of horny characters.
Every ten chapters or so I will provide a short summary at the start of that episode to bring new readers up to date (see start of Ch. 70).
This story could appear in a number of genres (Loving Wives, Incest, Lesbian, Fetish, and more) depending on the chapter, but the overall theme is Group, so I have applied this moniker to all chapters. The story is still being written, yet I intend to post a new chapter every couple of days. Enjoy.
Chapter 73 - Meeting Kate. Club Prep. Thanksgiving Visitors
Mark
Two weeks before the Grand Opening of the Club Infinity, I stood in the middle of the dance floor and looked around at the beehive of activity going on around me.
Elsa and Stacy stood on the stage with a tall handsome man named Lee Olerich - the new club manager that Stacy had hired on my behalf. They were auditioning female and male strippers. Stacy had a clipboard with one page for each girl or guy who had applied to her ads. There was a boom box on the corner of the stage with Stacy's old iPod plugged into the top of the box.
Stacy yelled out, "Number twenty four. Thank you, twenty three."
The girl who had been dancing flounced off the stage, collecting her clothes along the way. She'd given me a hard-on, but nothing like what twenty-four did next. She came out with some serious sashaying, and swung on the chrome pole. As she did, the skirt she wore swung out and around her, displaying her bare ass to the audience. Some of the men putting the finishing touches on the bar stopped to watch her. Unlike the prior audition, this one was worth watching.
She had a total of five minutes to prove her worth and sexiness as an entertaining dancer and stripper. Gradually, her clothes fell away until she was nude. She pretended there were patrons at the stage side tables, and danced to and near each of them with the sexiest sway of hips and exposure of female genitalia I'd ever seen. Even Elsa looked impressed.
As the song ended, Elsa and Stacy compared notes. Lee said something too. Stacy looked at the job application and said, "You're Kate Kenworthy, right? You were dancing when we looked at this place a few months ago. I liked you then and I like you now."
The girl stood naked a few feet from them without a trace of embarrassment, "Right, that was me - all of me." She used her hands to gesture to her entire nude body and laughed. She also struck a sexy pose that would have made a photographer's mouth water.
"Well, Kate. You just got yourself a job, although I would have given you one if you'd simply identified yourself as the one we'd seen on our first visit here. Please feel free to get dressed and then see Mr. Olerich here, and he'll get your paperwork underway. Can you start on December first?"
"I can. Thank you. This is good news. I need the job." Kate's voice was smooth and beautiful, although I did detect some stress in it.
Kate stepped into her skirt and shrugged her blouse on her shoulders. She was buttoning up when I went over to her.
Out of curiosity, I asked, "Why do you need the job? You sounded stressed before when you spoke. Is everything all right?"
She smiled, "Besides day-to-day expenses, I have a teen. She needs braces. Bad teeth - crooked and some need to be pulled to make room. It's affecting her self-image and speech, and hence her schoolwork and ability to attract friends in her opinion. I was working two jobs to build up some savings to pay for it, but I lost my waitress job four months ago, and haven't been able to scrape together enough to do much for her. I guess I'll run my overall debt up a little higher. What's that line from some old song, 'another day older and deeper in debt.' That'll be me for the foreseeable future."
"You're single?"
"Single white female seeks work," she laughed and gestured towards the stage. "Will strip for money."
I asked, "How much are the braces?"
"The whole package is five grand, but they'll let me put it on time at only three percent. I'll be paying it off for forever, but I'll have a happy and well-adjusted young adult - I hope. As it is, I've waited a couple of years too long; she's seventeen. Everybody else in her grade has already had their orthodontic work years ago and has moved on with straight teeth. I just couldn't afford it then, or now; but we can't wait any longer."
She was searching for her regular shoes instead of the sexy six inch spike heels she'd danced in, and I went over to Elsa and briefly talked to her, and then did something that made me feel good. As Kate collected her things and started to walk off towards Lee, who'd moved down on the patron dance floor, Elsa called her over. "Kate. Join us for a moment. Lee won't mind." Lee waved over his shoulder at the two of us; he'd heard her.
She looked puzzled and even slightly worried, but came over. I I handed her a personal check for six thousand dollars that I just written from my personal account.
Kate looked at the check and tears came to her eyes. She looked over at me, "Really?" She paused and then responded with a sense of urgency, "I can't be bought for anything. I'm not a prostitute."
I shook my head, "Did I say anything about conditions going with that check? There are none except to get those braces for your teen before another day goes by."
