This is an experiment to set up new characters I wanna use. If you like the female lead please let me know.
I'm also aware of the similarities with Night Teeth on netflix. But I wrote this and only recently finished editing it with a friend about two months ago. I've just been nervously sitting on it because other work has preoccupied me.
Thanks Mr. King for editing!
Chapter One
Nights as an Uber driver aren't what one would describe as glamorous, especially not an Uber driver in New Orleans during tourist season. Henry had been scammed into this career for a multitude of reasons, now feeling locked in by the purchase of a car and the fact that he had to pay for his little sister's college. Now he spends his nights with a sore ass and a headache.
Tonight was particularly horrendous. One group of frat boys (from all that Henry could infer) had decided to snort and spill their cocaine in his back seat, to which Henry quite quickly kicked them out. He made sure to leave them a bad review before they could bamboozle his 4 outta 5 stars. He then spent the next 20 minutes cleaning the white powder off of the foot rug of the car. The next few couples were drunks making out, some attractive and some not so much. Henry didn't watch but he did have to make sure they didn't do the nasty on his seats.
It all slowed to a halt at 3:00am as he sat silently in his car with the window open. Henry took in the humid night air and looked at the moon amidst the orange lights of the street lamps. He almost forgot he lived in such a hectic city by how quiet it was, even with all the partying tourists people had to sleep, unlike himself. He thought about his sister, wondering if she was asleep by now or partying as well. He wondered if he'd ever sell his art, if he was just a beast of burden for others? Then a ping from his phone snapped him from his intrusive thoughts. One last ride for the night he thought as he saw the name... 'Ursa'. He hoped it wasn't another drunk woman bringing home a dude. He couldn't bear another session of tongue boxing in the back seat.
Finally Henry pulled up his car. It was a wonderfully expensive bar, one of those bars you'd see rich executives hang out at with their escorts of wives. Henry hoped one day he'd be dressed up having a cocktail inside.
That's when his eye was caught like a raccoon spotting a shiny piece of god knows what. She was a jewel in the orange lamplight. A woman stood with an Afro and dark skin, her shapely body was brought out boldly by an orange dress. It clung to every inch and nook and cranny of her form. It left far too little to Henry's imagination.
Henry gawked at her and the woman smiled from her spot under the lamp before approaching. The clicking of her shiny and gold glitter shoes making contact with the pavement. Henry's driver side window was lowered earlier, as she bent over resting her arms on the sill of the car door. Ursa's bosom was bushed up and together, her gorgeous breasts sat tantalizing above her crossed arms.
Her plump lips parted and she spoke with words like warm milk and honey, "An Uber for Ursa?"
Henry could do nothing but nod and swallow dryly. Ursa stood with haste before opening the door on the passenger side. She entered and Henry tried not to look back in case her short dress flashed a part of her pussy at him. She was far too gorgeous to be another college student and she was far too flawless to be an escort who was ridden rough and out away hard by that life. She must've been a rich man's wife or some sorta heiress from the people he'd seen around here. He watched her through the rear view mirror before she laughed coyly asking, "Can we drive?" Her eyes flashed when she made eye contact with him, the silver of an animal caught by light at night.
They drove for some time in total silence besides the low volume of the radio. The air of night chilled them as he drove. He took a glance in the rear view mirror to see her. She looked out into the city. Then his eyes drifted down to her chest. Her nipples stood hard and proud poking through her dress. His mouth watered and that's when she looked at him. Ursa could smell his arousal and she was painfully hungry for flesh. Henry was young and healthy and the fire of creativity made him smell like fine wine.
"Do you like working this job, Henry", her words slick and cunning with the same sweetness.
Henry focused up sharply, making eye contact back with her. He was terrified she caught him ogling her, "I-I hate it to be honest. I do it for my sister."
Ursa knew why he did it. She was already comfortably opening every closed door of his mind by this point, "To pay for her college?"
"How'd you know?" Henry was shocked at how good her guess was. For some reason he felt like she was reading him like a book for toddlers.
She smiled sharply, "I have a pension for reading people. Don't worry about it. You're not that easy. Then again no man is when dealing with me."
Henry watched with any rebuttal caught in his throat. She went back to looking out the window, smelling his scent and enjoying her meal to come. Henry looked away and back to the road. He'd be at the destination soon and wouldn't want to look more like a fool than he already did by driving right past where this lovely woman needed to be.
Ursa however watched him. She danced in his mind like a phantom as her eyes snuck glances of his face. He was grizzled for 28 but it by no means sat on him poorly. His brown skin and brown short wavy hair made for a beautiful model- if only he knew. His eyes are deep pools of honey, his body was nothing to laugh at either. The junkyard art he made had sculpted him beautifully like a Greek god. Usually she drained her prey dry but now she wondered if she would keep him on the payroll instead, he could use it.
Chapter Two
Finally Henry pulled up the street, an apartment building of incredible decadence and style. Henry gawked in awe at it. A building from the 1940's at least given all the art deco he saw. He waited for Ursa to get out but she didn't bother; she just sat and looked at him from the rear view mirror.
Henry looked at her back and swallowed, "We've arrived at your destination."
