I'M A FREE MAN

NIKAELEON

***

Three years. For the first time in three years I was breathing clean, untainted air. As I stepped out of the prison gates, I raised my face to the sky and took a deep breath. I'm a free man. I smiled, then I began to laugh.

“Yo, Nik. It’s good to see you man.” Tedros said as he stepped out of the car with Anika. We all used to be friends before I went to jail three years ago. They had gotten married while I was in jail, and they now had a little daughter. She was probably in school by this time.

“It’s good to see you too.” I said as I hugged him.

“But why are you the one picking me up, where’s Uri?” I asked him. I couldn’t wait to see her.

“Let’s get you all cleaned up first. You must be dying to eat something that’s not prison food.” He said to me with a smile but I knew he was forcing it. Something was wrong.

Being in prison had taught me to be hyper perceptive. You needed to be very careful behind bars or your next breath would be your last.

“What’s the problem, Ted?” I asked.

“Problem? There is no…”

“Don’t lie to me like I’m a child, Tedros.  Uri stopped visiting me more than two years ago. I had thought it was because it had been too hard for her to see me behind bars, but now she’s not here to pick me up either. Is she… is she dead?” My heart seemed to pause as I waited for the answer to my question. If Uri was dead, then my life had no meaning.

“I wish that was the case, Nik. But the reality is much, much worse.” Tedros sighed.

“Tell me.” I demanded and clenched my fist.

“Uri is getting married to Connor today.” Tedros said and looked away from me.

I stopped breathing altogether. Did I just hear that my girlfriend and my best friend were getting married?

THREE YEARS AGO

***

“Babe, we’re running late, we need to leave now.” I called as I fastened my wristwatch and ran my hands through my hair.

“I don’t have anything to wear.” She said to me from the closet and I sighed.

Uriel had been in the closet for almost an hour and if she was telling me this right now then she was still undressed. I knew that getting angry was futile, plus I couldn’t stay mad at her for very long and that was my weakness.

“Uri, the closet is filled with clothes. How can there not be anything in there for you to wear?” I asked as I walked to the closet.

When I got in there, I took a deep breath so I wouldn’t lose my patience. I loved all my things in a particular order and I hated things being out of their proper place. Uriel was the total opposite. Right now she was seated on the floor surrounded by a pile of clothes. Most of the clothes on the other shelves were also in disarray.

Uriel and I had been dating for two years and she was the light of my life. I asked her to move in with me just two months ago and I loved her more than anything in the world. But times like these, I really wanted to spank her ass red. When we get back from meeting with our friends, I would do it and enjoy myself immensely.

“Uriel, the whole place is a mess.” I said to her and she turned to face me. Immediately I saw the look on her face, I knew that she had done all this on purpose.

“Is it? It looks just fine to me.” She said and bit her lip.

“Uriel.”

“Yes.. Nik” She replied with a seductive smile. We were a perfect match for each other, but there was no time to give her the spanking she deserved.

“Stand.” I said to her and almost regretted telling her to do so.

The little she-devil knew exactly what she was doing. She wore the tiniest scrap of lace she could possibly have in her lingerie collection.

“I’ve been really naughty.” She said huskily as she slowly walked to me.

“Uri.” I groaned in frustration.

“We don’t have time for this.” I was saying something else, but my eyes and my body wanted something else entirely.

“Why not now?” She asked as she got to me.

“Stop tempting me, Uri.” I said as I wrapped my hand around her throat.

“Or what?” She moved closer till her soft body was pressed up against mine while my fingers were still around her neck.

“Or I’ll make sure you won’t be able to sit down for days.” I leaned down to whisper against her ears.

“Just days? That doesn’t sound so bad.” She smiled.

“You’ll get more than you deserve.” I said to her and I could see the look of anticipation on her face.

Uri liked a bit of pain with her pleasure, and I loved to give it to her even more. Suddenly, leaving the house for our appointment with friends seemed like too much of a chore, but we had to go. We had been putting off this outing for so long and our friends were angry with us for ignoring them all for so long.

“But it will be when we return from the club.” I kissed her forehead and let her go.

“Nik, please. I’m so horny. I need you.”

“You’re always horny, Uriel.” I chuckled as I walked further into the closet.

“Wear this, it would look perfect on you.” I said as I picked out a maroon dress that would fit her like second skin and had a slit by the side then I walked out of the closet.

When she was done getting dressed, I gave her a gift. A pearl necklace with matching earrings.

“It’s beautiful, Nik.”

“Yes. But all the jewels in the world are like sand compared to your beauty.” I said as I put it around her neck.

“You say the sweetest things.” She smiled at me.

“Only for you, Uri. Only for you.” I said as I kissed her lips.

We took the elevator down from my penthouse suite and walked to my private underground garage. There were three nice cars to pick from, but I picked the convertible. It had only two seats for Uri and I. I didn’t want anyone to drive home with us because I was going to take her in the car first on our way back, then we would continue at home.

“You’re late.” Connor yelled over the loud music in the club as we made our way over to the VIP area.

“Be grateful we even made it, asshole.” I said to him as we hugged.

Connor is my best friend. We had known each other since high school. His parents were rich and I was dirt poor but somehow we had stayed friends through it all. Then in college I started my company and by the time we graduated, I had made my first million. That was six years ago and now I am a multi millionaire. Not as rich as I wanted to be yet, but I was getting there.

“Yo! Nik my man.” Tedros said as he walked to me and we hugged.

Tedros was a friend we had both met while in college. He was here with his girlfriend, Anika.  Connor was the only single person among us, and that was because he was such a manwhore. He couldn’t keep a woman for more than one day.

We all sat and ordered our drinks. Then Tedros stood.

“Okay guys, Anika and I have an announcement to make.” Tedros said.

“I knew there was a reason you dragged our asses out here. Your old man is going to kill you for getting her pregnant.” Connor said and Uri tossed an ice cube at him.

“Shut up and let him speak, asshole. You don’t know what he was going to say. Go ahead,  Tedros, what is it you want to tell us?”
