Free Dominque (Knights to Remember) by Nicole Colville Page B

contact details and booked the date in with the office.
    He decided to set the date in stone by emailing him. This way there would be no confusion and he would have the details in writing to refer back to later. After putting together a professional, but short email, he pressed send, reading back his email and feeling more nervous than he usually ever did. When he received a reply back ten minutes later, he opened it up, biting his nails as he read it.
    Good Morning, Dominque,
    Thank you for contacting me regarding our next meeting. I appreciate you fitting me in on such short notice, and that you understand the situation with Bettina.
    I’ve included the restaurant’s name where we will be going, but I’d like to collect you from your hotel and arrive together. The meal is booked for eight, so I’d like to pick you up at seven. It’s smart casual—no dress code this time. Please forward me the details of where you will be staying.
    As for specific details of what I require from you, there’s just one. To be yourself, or at least the Dominque I met the last time. As before, I don’t require anything other than companionship for the evening, and unlike last time, I promise you will be back in your own bed by midnight. Unmolested and pleasantly full.
    I’m available on here if you need any further information.
    Regards,
    Jacob.
    Dominque sipped his tea while he reread it for the third time. No sex again. So Jacob hadn't changed his tastes, the date was just to fool his friends. He shook his head and typed back a less professional email
    Jacob,
    You could be setting yourself up for a long play with this one. Do you really want to continue this? It could end now. People break up all the time. I would still be professional and never speak of our business arrangement, and continue my friendship with Bettina separately. I'm concerned this could end up being a regular thing, and I don’t think you want that with me.
    Plus, it would cost you a fortune. :D I’m happy to continue, but will understand if you change your mind.
    D.
    Dominque knew of men who paid for a regular companion, but it was much more than Jacob wanted from him. They usually involved an escort playing the full boyfriend role, sex and everything else. It was still a fantasy for the client, and in most cases they would never meet anyone like the men they paid for, but like all relationships, they develop the longer they exist.
    Some escorts only worked for one client, set up in their own place and paid a monthly fee, left to do as they please most of the time but jump when they’re needed. It appealed to Dominque once, but you receive a lot less money overall. It could be something he would think of now, especially without the sex. That way he could just be friends with the client and find someone else. Maybe this could work out to his advantage.
    I’m willing to continue with this right now. Obviously I don’t want this to continue for much longer, but I’ve had little time to think about it. Perhaps we can discuss this further on our next date?
    Jacob.
    Dominque sighed. He felt for Jacob being stuck in such an awkward position. Hopefully things would be better between them this time. It must be horrible paying money to spend time with someone you really didn’t want to be with.
    But, at the end of the day, it was his money, and he could choose to spend it how he wanted. He just didn’t strike Dominque as the type of person to waste his hard earned cash, and he was positive any money he gave to Dominque would be better spent on his charity work. Maybe that's what this was all about though, getting more money or something from the big guy. If Dominque thought he was helping in that way, then things seemed easier.
    He sent through the name of the hotel he would be staying in, the one where they always stayed when they had dates in London, then called Suzie up to fit Jacob in and asked her to stay the night with Angelique. He’d have to spend at least
