Just One Dance

3. Jacob Duncan

Jacob Duncan was not a typical kind of man. He was a billionaire who owned many chains of businesses and was still looking for more to invest in. He took every opportunity that called his name. He lived off the mantra; you can never have too much money.

Jacob was 29-year-old, turning thirty. He had always been decisive about his future and had a drive for success from a young age, which was why he did everything he put his mind to.

He graduated from college early due to being an honorary student. The teachers always told him that he was way ahead of his years. Though he didn't need to work, because as people would say, he was born with a gold spoon, Jacob started forming ideas from an early time.

He decided he wasn't going to ask his parents for help because he wanted to accomplish something independently. He also did so because they thought that his degree would go nowhere since it had to do with food. But, they didn't know how wrong they would be.

Jacob had a passion for opening a bakery because he thought it was good business. So, he started selling cupcakes that he learned to make all by himself. People wondered why a rich young man like him was selling stuff when he didn't need to.

He sold cupcakes until he had enough money to start baking other things. Jacob rented a shop where he could have his items displayed more clearly. Fortunately for him, his products were delicious and he had people going back for more.

Since his business was a success, he hired staff and kept expanding until he had twenty stores across the country. Even when Jacob had that many stores across the country, he didn't stop there. Jacob went international, opening stores everywhere that was possible.

When he saw that his businesses were stable, it was then he chose to relax and help do the paper part of the job. He tried to hire the most qualified and experienced people, and for those who weren't, as long as they could learn quickly, they stood a chance.

Make no mistake, Jacob was a great boss, but if he was passed off, he became an a*shole. He believed in giving people a fair chance but did not take to being used or taken advantage of lightly.

Jacob also opened an investment firm, where he helped struggling small business owners whose businesses had potential. He respected people who had goals set, even if they had no idea how to go about accomplishing them.

Jacob snapped out of his reverie when his notification sound indicated that he had received a message. He was busy looking over finances. His businesses were doing extremely well.

Tony: I hope you're coming to the CHARITY masquerade event.

Jacob: Wasn't planning to. You know, being inside a strip club is not my kind of scene. But, since you took your time to emphasize the word 'charity', I'll be there.

Tony: Great! You won't regret it! I have something special planned.

Jacob scoffed. He had known Tony since they were children, so he knew there would be nothing exciting. Especially when he was hyping up things. Tony had been like that for as long as Jacob could remember. He always exaggerated a story and when he spilled the details, the listener wanted to throw tomatoes at him.

Jacob sighed because he knew Katrina Allen, his girlfriend, wouldn't want him to go. Speaking of Katrina, he needed space from her because she had become demanding ever since they made their relationship official.

Jacob had known Katrina for a long time, which was why he agreed to her proposal of them being together. She was gentle and an introvert, but since they decided to be together, she had changed. It was as if she had secured her spot in his life, so she didn't care anymore.

Katrina had been nagging Jacob for a proposal and, on a whim, he had promised that he would give her a ring soon. The pressure of her forcing him to propose to her, even when she knew how he felt about marriage, made him have second thoughts about ever giving her a chance.

Jacob locked his office and walked through the bakery. This had always made his day. To walk through your bakery and smell the delicious scent of pastries, knowing that they are freshly made, was an accomplishment to be proud of. And, Jacob was so proud of himself. Too much sometimes that he could be an a*s.

Jacob informed the manager that he would be going home early. After that, he entered his Mercedes and drove out of the parking lot. His house was not too far from the bakery, so he arrived quickly.

Jacob leaned back in the car seat. He still had his hands on the steering wheel. Jacob was contemplating if he should go inside and come up on the chance of an argument, or just drive away and get ready at his father's hotel. Robert Duncan was good at business. Success ran in the family.

In the end, he decided to go in. He was not going to let Katrina control what he could and couldn't do. He was a man, a very successful one at that. Many women would give anything to be in her position. Women threw themselves at Jacob often and he didn't even look at them. They were irrelevant to him.

The only woman that mattered to him that he would give his life for was his mother and his sister. She was younger than him by a few years. She was the one his parents sheltered since he left to pursue his dreams. She was a pampered princess, as she should be.

Jacob was not going to chastise his father for spoiling her because he did the same. Anything Cecelia 'CC' Duncan wanted, she got. She was getting ready to take over the business from Robert because Jacob, being his father's heir, as his father loved to call him, wasn't interested.

Robert wasn't disappointed, but proud when Jacob declined his offer. He was happy that his son decided to man up and stand up for himself. He had the qualities of a good man. Jacob was set in the career department but was lacking in the relationship part of his life. Robert only had one hope for Jacob; for him to not turn out like him.

He had cheated on Jacob's mother, Celia, and he didn't seem like he was about to stop, which was why Jacob thought the way he did about marriage and he couldn't blame him. Why tie yourself down to one person when they are going to disappoint you in the end?

You're going to want to get out of the marriage eventually. Then you have to go through the process of a divorce, which could be nasty sometimes. The simple thing to do was to stay unmarried. Jacob realized that his mother didn't seem to be bothered by it, so he left it alone.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the window. Katrina. Jacob wound down the glass.

"You've been out here for a long time now. Aren't you coming in?" She asked.

"I was just about to go in. I needed a minute to clear my head." Jacob replied.

"What did you need a minute to clear your head about?"

'Here we go again.' Jacob thought. This was the start of Katrina's bullsh*t.

"Please don't start." Jacob slowly opened the car door, giving Kathrina time to move away. No matter how angry he was, he would never physically hurt a woman. He walked towards the house and entered, with Katrina hot on his tail.

"Jacob, don't walk away when I'm talking to you." Katrina said, getting more pissed off by the minute.

"Katrina, not now."

"When am I going to get a ring?" She asked with her arms folded.

Jacob ignored her and walked into their bedroom. He decided not to tell her about the charity event. He was just going to get ready and leave.

"Stop acting like you didn't hear me, Jacob." Katrina followed Jacob into the bathroom, where he started taking his clothes off. She watched as he walked under the rainfall shower. Since she couldn't get through to him verbally, she was going to try another approach.

Katrina used the opportunity of Jacob ignoring her to strip her clothes off. She walked into the shower and hugged Jacob from behind. He flinched on first contact. Jacob peeled Katrina's hands from off his body and turned to face her.

"What are you doing?" Jacob asked, holding her hands so she couldn't touch him. She freed one of her hands and grabbed his sem-hard d**k, but Jacob pushed her hand away.

"Let me please you." Katrina pleaded.

"Now is not the time. I have to be somewhere." Jacob replied. He needed to get ready for the event.

"Your d**k is saying otherwise. Besides, the only place you need to be is inside my mouth." Katrina smirked. She saw the effect her words had on Jacob. No matter how badly they were at odds, he would still be attracted to her.

Now that she had successfully captured him with her words, Katrina decided to make a move. She held his d**k, which was harder, and gave it a few strokes. When Jacob closed his eyes and didn't say anything, Katrina went down on her knees.

Without hesitation, she decided to put his d**k in her mouth in case he changed his mind about her giving him a blowj*b. Katrina tried to make it as memorable as possible.

Jacob's resolve broke. He lifted Katrina from the floor and turned her around so that she was facing the wall. He bent her over, allowing her to brace herself because, based on how he was moving, she knew it would be fast and rough.

Jacob slammed his d**k into Katrina without any warning. She screamed because of the pleasure mixed with pain. It felt like she was on cloud nine.

Jacob didn't give her a chance to adjust to his deliciously, well-proportioned d**k. He slammed into Katrina over and over again, with the walls as a witness to his very much welcomed torture on her.

Katrina didn't care if Jacob refused her a ring if he would keep pounding her like that for the rest of their lives. She felt her orgasm closing in, so she reached between her legs and began to rub her cl*t. It didn't take long for her to begin spamming around him.

Katrina's orgasm and the way she was clenching him, triggered his own. Jacob pulled out of Katrina and pumped his d**k a few times, watching as his c*me spurted out.

Jacob washed his body and walked out of the shower, leaving Katrina looking at him like she didn't get enough. Well, too bad. He was leaving. Jacob went into his bedroom and began to put his clothes on.

He paused when he heard moans inside the bathroom. Jacob scoffed. Katrina was pleasuring herself in an attempt to lure him in. Before the drama between them had started, he would have gladly taken the bait, but now it didn't work.

Jacob finished dressing and slipped outside the door. He started the car and drove out of his home. Jacob breathed a sigh of relief when he was far away. He thought it was a d**k move, but he couldn't deal with Katrina begging for a ring and making him feel like he was obligated to answer since she let him f*ck her.

He needed a drink. Hopefully, for once, Tony kept his promise of making it a spectacular night, because he sure as hell needed it.
