"Wait right here." I insist, laughing. I walk across the dance floor without his permission. When I turn back to see if he has followed me, he is leaning against the table with his arms crossed, watching me like a hawk. I give him a twinkle wave, making him smile, and he points at his phone.

I shrug, making him smile bigger and shake his head.

There are a lot of people meandering around the dance floor and hovering by the stage, but the vast majority are in groups at the back tables.

Walking to the edge of the stage, I wave to Mike.

He smiles, recognizing me, and motions me to come on up.

I turn around and boost my butt up. Aurei is still leaning on the table.

When I walk up to Mike's station, I introduce myself. "Hey, I'm Siri."

"Mike. Nice to meet you."

"Likewise. What can I do you for?"

"Is it possible to request a couple of songs?"

"Sure. What do you want me to play?"

I tell him, and he smiles at my choices as he makes a few adjustments to his set. "For Aurei?"

"Yes."

"I hear ya. Did you like the way I played "This Kiss" when he kissed you?"

"Yes, your timing was perfect."

"Steve sent me a text that it was going down."

I laugh. "Bros!"

"Always." He laughs, then says. "He's the real deal." He looks up. "Aurei's quite the catch around here."

"He is quite the catch anywhere."

"True dat." His phone rings, and when he looks at it, he turns it so I can read it and laughs. "Another song request, right after yours." He sends a text, then continues. "He's a good guy, you know."

"Yeah, I know."

"Money didn't change him at all. He's still the same ole Aurei. Ok, you're all set."

"Thanks, Mike. I'm going over there." I point to the stripper pole. "Wait until I get set, then start the songs, please."

His grin is for real. "You got it."

I walk over to the stripper pole directly in front of Aurei. I can feel his eyes following me.

So, money didn't change him….

He has to be wealthy. He drives a Raptor, took me to a family farm, owns rentals in Vegas.

Duh! I laugh at my lack of comprehension.

That's probably why Paul was protective of him.

They thought I might be after his money.

Well, his bros will be happy to know I have plenty of money of my own, and I don't need any of his.

The lights behind the curtains come on when I arrive. Perfect. My outfit will make a sharp silhouette. No one will notice because I'm too high, but Aurei will. And this show is for him. I examine the platform area. It's stable, just unused.

When I'm in place, Mike starts the song. I sway like a gentle breeze is blowing, immersing myself in Whitney Houston's "Lover for Life." Then I roll my head and hips as I slowly circle, letting my hair flow, following the rhythm.

Cat's sexy voice purrs in my mind. "The subtle suggestion of body movements are as provocative as the brass and bold when delivered in the right context.

Use seduction, not sex, to sell yourself.

We are not porn stars. We are erotic dancers.

Every movement on the pole should be slow, deliberate, effortless, and mesmerizing. "

Let me mesmerize you, My Golden God.

I touch the pole gently as if I'm touching the arm of a lover. I slide my hand, caressing the bar, then I walk around it, letting my fingers trail behind. Hanging my head forward, I step up to the pole to dance for Aurei, to dance for my man.

Grabbing the bar with both hands, I lift my body off the floor and circle the pole, then gently land.

Letting my hair drape my face, with my back to him, I sway seductively as if it is my lover.

Angling my face to accept a kiss, I push my pussy against it and slide down to a squat, then turning my face away, I slowly fuck the pole, gently, delicately, subdued as I rise. At the top, I sway to the music.

Grabbing the pole with both hands again, I lift myself and circle it to face him, then stand with my back resting on it.

I stretch my hands up while hanging my head down and sliding very slowly down to sit on my ankles.

I lower my hands slowly down; over my head, my neck, my face, then I lean my head back as I caress my tits and tummy, finally reaching my pussy then inside my thighs, pushing my knees wide apart, inviting him in.

I pause there, letting him feel the zone I opened for him.

I retrace my path back up as I again caress my body working my way back up to the pole.

Then I lift, tuck my legs, and twist to face it.

Again, I slowly fuck the pole as I stand, then sway to the music.

Next, I grab the bar with one hand, raise my leg into a split and lift myself enough to spin around the pole once. Then I let my stiletto touch, and I sink to my ankle. Letting my leg slide off the pole, I again, slow fucking as I stand.

I want more of Aurelius Moore.

I raise my hands over my head, grip the bar, sharply arch my back and roll my ass into it again and again until I hear the horns play their solo.

Then, I flex my abs, heave my legs up and over the top, doing a virtual backflip.

Hanging upside down, I open my legs into a split and lightly touch down on the other side, sinking to a squat with a bowed head.

Again, I slowly fuck the pole, gently, delicately, and subdued as I stand, changing only the head angles and using my hair for emphasis.

I hold my body off the pole and use a swimming motion to bodily fuck it until the music ends.

Touching down, I wait for the next song.

It's another Whitney Houston, "Run to You.

" As soon as the music starts, I grasp the pole and lean out, cocking my ass as if I'm simply pulling on it, getting a feel for it.

Dropping one hand, I dramatically dip and roll my shoulder, rotating and coming up under my attached hand.

When her voice croons, I slide my shoulders up the pole with my profile looking down.

When she sings the first words, I pick my face up, tilting it slightly upward, giving him a strong profile as I extend my hand gracefully.

There is so much more in me than you see than I show the world. I curl my hand back to my chest to my heart to protect my secrets.

But if you look inside, you will find... I roll my head to the front. Facedown, dropping my arm to my side, I hunch my shoulders in weakness. ...the real me. A girl who isn't always strong. I push off the pole and take two steps dragging my toes. I've been hurt, and I feel so lonely.

As she sings, with her beautiful soulful voice, the first chorus, I let him know.

I want to run … to you, Aurei. Only you.

I spin two and a half twirls back to the pole with my hair fanning out.

Then suddenly, draping the bar as if it's a lover, I show him what I want, what I need.

Hold me. Keep me safe in your strong arms.

Gripping the pole, I straddle it. Keeping my feet on the floor, I push them forward, extending my legs, letting them slide in front of me as I ease my body down.

Then using them as an anchor, I squeeze the pole between my thighs in a scissor lock and let go of the pole.

Leaning away, stretching myself to Aurei, I drop my face back until my hair hangs off the top of my head.

When I see him, I know he hears me. My beautiful Golden God has moved to the edge of the dance floor, watching, captivated, just inside the shadow. I hold myself there, not moving, making him feel the power of my request. Then I very gracefully reach out a hand to him, beckoning him.

He steps to the edge of the light. His aqua shirt and his golden halo glow softly in the low light. He watches mesmerized, and I know he gets it.

The lyrics are about being in control every day, but at night when the day is done, the key unlocks the door to a lonely, empty home.

I slowly arch my back, pushing my tits to the ceiling, showing off my extreme flexibility.

I dangle for a moment, then put my hands over my head, flat on the floor, then release the pole.

I lift my hips, dragging my feet as I bend, dropping my face until my weight rests on my forearms, showing off my extreme flexibility.

When I lift my straight legs up until they are vertical and parallel to the pole, there is no doubt the extent of my core strength.

Then I roll down and simply but gracefully collapse on the floor.

Covering my head with my arms, I shake my whole body as I pretend to sob.

I'm alone and so lonely.

Hanging my head as I rise, I push up onto my hands and knees as I gather strength to sit back on my heels, looking to the sky as I reach for it, asking.

Why? What's the point of dreams if you are all alone.

Dropping my hands suddenly, I quickly turn to look right at him. He is too far away to see his eyes, but I can feel him to my core.

I want you, Aurei.

Slowly, I extended my hand to him, holding it out until the chorus begins. With the lyrics "Run To You," I rise, but I don't dance. Instead, I trot off the platform and down to the stage.

I need you! I want you! Hold me! Keep me safe! The words to the song drive me to Aurei.

At the edge, I fall to my knees, and in one fluid motion, I spin and lay flat.

Arching, I push my tits to the ceiling again.

Allowing my head to hang limply, I drag my hair on the floor as I sit up.

Then, I snap it, flipping my hair up and over the top in the opposite direction as the other times before.

It falls like a curtain around my shoulders.

Slumping forward, putting my hands on the edge of the stage, I pull my ass off, and my feet hit the dance floor.

Standing there, I shake my disheveled hair back.

No more tears. No more fears. Looking across the dance floor, our eyes lock, and his green gaze pierces my core like the first time in that shrinking elevator span.

You are the one!
