When Hawk settled back on his coach, everyone relaxed and awaited Lucy’s promised gift. They all knew it would be something as Lucy kind of had some reputation to be so generously considerate. 

Then soon, all the lights in the room faded and there was total darkness. There was nothing then but Lucy’s naughty little laughs, “Everyone I give you Cat, my wild kitten!”

​​

Right then, the center of the room lit up and the very heart of it was a shining dance pole and a woman dressed and masked like a kitten. Her glittery tank top and skirt were all short and tight, showing off almost all her legs and shoulders. She had copper hair, tucked in a clean bun and on her ears were cat ears, cut and designed in a way to compliment her outfit and the half mask she wore in her face. She was alluringly sexy to look at.

When the guest all laid eyes on her, they all swallowed hard and deep. The woman in front of them, although masked, certainly captured all their interest. The mysterious aura she breathed into the room the moment she appeared sent all hearts in pit fire and their desires raging wild. She was hot, wild and perhaps dangerous. 

“Ahm,”

“Ahm,”

“Cough”

The men that gathered in the room cleared their throats as the woman totally made them thirsty for something their drinks couldn’t satisfy. Perhaps one touch of the woman could, however there was something in her aura that warned all of them that she’s not an ordinary person and definitely not one they can easily have if they want.

Just a little later, music started playing. It has a slow sexy vibe and the girl moved. She started giving them slow on point poses and soon something breathtaking. As she danced, climbed and glided in the pool, all the men in front of her realized she was no ordinary. She was a dancer, a professional one and the routine she gave them was certainly something, something men would never want to miss. 

Hawk, like all the others, fell into the dancer’s enigma but when he realized who she was, his feelings went into rampage. She was his mystery woman and yet she was dancing for other men and that fact alone got Hawk into a state of total madness.However as much as he wanted to go berserk, the woman was dancing so gracefully sexy that he didn’t want to miss any moment of it. His eyes were all over her, skimming through her as if he could see all the depths of her persona.

Simione made sure she had all their attention. She practiced so hard to learn such a daring dance under Lucy’s supervision. Her friend, Lucy the Lucifer, always had wild nasty ideas and this full stripper kind of performance was probably the most outrageous one she had pushed her to do in the name of their Feather Project. Truth was, she kind of hesitated at first because although she knew how to dance, she had never danced like that before and the fact she will be subjected to many malicious eyes kind of scared her a bit. However, when she heard the news of Hawk buying Feather a bulk of jewelry days ago, she got pissed off and immediately decided to double her time. Let’s see then if Hawk Monsanto can even think of his fiancee when he gets to see her in that wild dance. 

And so, during her routine, when she saw how the President of L Conglomerate swallowed hard at the sight of her, she fixed her eyes on him as if the dance was meant only for him alone. She knew he recognized her, it was too obvious with the look of his eyes. Simione then made sure her moves were sensuous and sultry that would make Hawk Monsanto go insane!

  Everyone didn’t say a word as Simione performed. They sweated and struggled with such a raw dance. Simione had done so well that everyone in the room immediately wished they could have a little of her company before the night ends. They all followed all her moves religiously and each shift was like a climax, however before they could have a satisfying ending, Simione stopped.

“Ahmm,” All men sigh and breathe deep at the unexpected end and they all curse Lucy in their minds as they thought she was all playing on them. How could she stop at the climax ? Damn!

An immediate hotness and tension filled the room but before they could all begged Simione to continue, Lucy walked to the front with her devious smile. They were still halfway to their plan and yet she knew they’ll have a victorious ending already. She gave Simione a wink to congratulate her for a job well done. 

Truth was she didn’t think Simione could pull off such a wild daring dance and yet she learned so fast. When they started out this Feather project, there were so many things to be done specially because the Simione who danced seductively tonight was very different to the real Simione who knew so little of men and their ways. And so, over the past few months, she spent teaching Simione with all the knowledge she had with men and their weaknesses. Seeing how Hawk Monsanto became so defenseless with her friend’s daring advances, she couldn’t be more proud of how Simione learned so well.

“I know you are all upset,” Lucy announced to their faces. “But I didn’t bring my kitten here for free. After all you are all businessmen,”

All the men in the room kind of lost their strength to get back at Lucy. She had played on them tonight and they all fell to her trap so easily. Who was this woman she calls her kitten by the way? She was so incredibly hot!

“Darling go easy on them,” Walter Wong laughed at Lucy’s nastiness. He already knew she was up to something when she insisted on bringing someone over but he didn’t expect it was this outrageous! Looking at the faces of her fellow colleagues, he couldn’t help but let go of a loud guffaw.

“Of course Darling,” She replied sweetly to him and turned to all other men in the room without missing a glance at the fallen Hawk Monsanto. “As you can see my friend Cat wished to have company tonight. But since there was so many of you—”

“One million!” Someone shouted from a nearby coach. “I’ll give you one million as a gift for her company,”

‘God Lord I wasn’t even finished yet’ Lucy thought with a wild grin. She did intend to make a bid for Simione’s company tonight to pissed Hawk Monsanto. He spent millions buying Feather some jewelry days ago, right? Then she’ll make sure he’ll bleed more millions for Simione than he did with Feather.

“Two million” The bid continued without much explanation. Everyone in the room wanted the girl and hearing them throwing their prices almost wanted Simione to run as fast as she could. However she knew it was too late for that.  Besides, Lucy promised her she’ll be safe in any way in case Hawk would not bid. However she couldn’t think of how foolish these men are to just throw money away all for the sake of a random woman whom they don’t even know. What if she’s a scammer then? Then she’ll be able to scam on them without much of a hassle!

“Five Million,” The prices went high and Lucy couldn’t be more thrilled. She casted a glance at Hawk whose expression then cannot be painted.

As the prices on Simione’s company went higher and higher, Hawk’s anger surged up. How dare all these men desire his mystery woman? They are all not worthy of her, nor her presence, not her dance and all the more her company! And how dare Lucilla Dimitri call her kitten as if she was some kind of pet and sell her off? Who does she think she is? Didn’t she know he could make and break her singer career at this instant? Walter Wong might not be able to stop her then!

“Six million!”

“Ten million!” The prices got pretty high and desperate. Simione then just wanted to shrink as if it was only then did she realize how foolish this idea was. Also when she looked at Hawk, she captured something in his expression that tells her how he wasn’t pleased at all. Didn’t her dance get into him? She sure thought she somehow had captured his interest as his eyes were fixed on her all the time while she was dancing.

“Eight million!”

“Eight million five hundred,”

“Ten million,”

“Ten million. Anyone who wants to bid higher?” Lucy asked, hoping Hawk would be interested. All this time he was just there watching the bidding quietly as his expression darkened. Obviously Hawk Monsanto was mad but as to what made him mad, she could only guess and she hoped she was right. 

After quite some moment, no one dared to go beyond the last bid. Lucy then thought perhaps Hawk Monsanto then wasn’t interested. With great dismay, the singer concluded the bidding as it was already getting boring since Hawk refused to participate.

“Ten million it is,” Lucy settled, “Going once, going—”

“Twenty million dollars,” Hawk’s voice crept into everyone’s ears slowly like a freezing breaze. His tone contained some serious threat that everyone immediately backed off, afraid to go head on with him.
