RED

Chapter 1 - Pearls

Alec Lightwood had a successful life. He worked damn hard for it. But at the same time he was lonely. Experienced yet inexperienced. He craved love and knew he would never have it. He craved real feelings, to be loved for who he was, to be loved in a way that would satisfy him, but he knew that was an unreachable dream for him. So he buried his true self deep inside himself. So deeply that he slowly began to believe that his own false reality was real. And it worked for 28 years. Until he saw Magnus Bane in a red light window on the streets of Amsterdam.

Alec Lightwood was walking the streets of Amsterdam. He didn't know what he was looking for. Perhaps confirmation that having sex with women was enough for him, or just the expertise of a pretty woman who could finally give him the feeling of pleasure he'd never really had before.

He has never been in love. He had a few one-night stands, but something was always missing. Secretly, deep in his soul, he knew what it was, he knew who he was, but he never dared to say it, never dared to think about it. He grew up in a family with strong moral traditions. He had a strict social upbringing. His parents were wealthy and had everything he needed for a happy life. He went to a good university and became a successful businessman. He was the CEO of his parents' business. He lived in a huge loft in New York and had his own apartment in London, he had cars, he had everything he needed. For him, prosperity was natural. The only thing missing from his life was love. He was 28 years old and had never been in love. He had never felt anything for any woman. He had never felt real satisfaction.

In 3 months, he will marry a woman. He was not in love. He wasn't even attracted to her. He marries under pressure from his parents. Emily is a nice girl. She comes from a wealthy family. They met once. He knew Emily secretly hoped that in time they could get closer. But he also knew that he had no feelings for her. Absolutely nothing. Zero. They weren't together. In fact, they barely knew each other. This was going to be a business marriage. Nothing more, nothing less. He had no expectations about this. He fulfills his responsibility to the family. They will have two children. And maybe they can live some kind of a normal life. With each other, or at least under the same roof. He told Emily not to expect love from him. And that was fine with her.

As he wandered the cobbled streets of the red-light district, he watched the girls in the red-lighted, red-curtained windows. They were pretty and showed almost everything of themselves. As he passed the windows, the girls smiled sweetly and seductively at him.

They were experienced enough to know that he was not just a wandering sightseer, but could be an actual customer. Every now and then he could smell the distinctive scent of the weed as the people walked by ignoring the clear prohibition posted on the streets: 'No smoking cannabis in public.'

He was passing the umpteenth window when his eyes caught someone's. Or rather, on someone's back, because she turned her back to the window, turning to someone who was talking to her. But her back caught Alec's eye. She had beautiful golden skin. Muscular back, slim, beautiful waist. And her back was covered with nothing but strings of white pearls that decorated the upper part of her back in loose lines. Her hair was short, trimmed short in the back, leaving her beautiful neck exposed. It was almost masculine. But it would have been a sin to cover that beautiful neck with hair. Alec stopped in front of the window. Something pulled him. Some invisible force. When she turned around, Alec was breathless. The most beautiful human being in the world looked at him with a bright smile. Her eyes were highlighted with a smoky shade of make-up, with some glitter. Her chocolate eyes were highlighted just enough by the make-up to make them breathtaking. Her lips were beautifully plump, slightly glossy. In her ears, a pair of earrings and ear cuffs. Her hair was longer in the front, she wore a few wavy purple locks. From behind the window she winked at Alec, who realized at that moment that the person who had taken his breath away was not a woman but a man.

Holy shit. He was confused. He'd never seen such a beautiful man. He was confused. Why is he going crazy for this man? He was confused. Why is he getting so turned on by the sight of a man?

The man smiled at him. He smiled back shyly. He shook his head to clear it and moved on.

At the next corner he leaned his back against the wall, took a few deep breaths to calm and clear his head. He stopped at the next window, barely looking at the young woman. He motioned to her, she let him in. He was still half hard at the sight of the man in the other window. He followed the woman, trying to enjoy her services. She had long, light brown hair with a pretty face. After all she was beautiful. After all...

He had to admit, she was skilled at her profession. Alec's previous one-night stands had never been so experienced. Still, he was missing something. He could feel what she was doing to him, how could he not? It was even pleasant. Yet he couldn't relax, couldn't give himself over to the feeling of pleasure.

His length was lustfully caressed by the skilled lips and tongue of the woman, But he couldn't really feel the pleasure. Not until he closed his eyes and thought of the man with the pearls on his back in the other window. In his fantasy, he pictured if his erection was pleasured with his mouth by that beautiful man, as if his tongue was caressing him. Suddenly, he felt a pulsating sensation. He imagined the man, wearing the pearls sucking the drops of his pre-cum, he moaned, and came in the prostitute's mouth.

She stroked him until his throbbing erection calmed, then wiped her lips and left him discreetly alone. Alec cleaned himself, dressed, put the money down, and left. He wandered the now darkened streets for a long time. His pounding heart slowly calmed down. But his mind could not. What was that? He thought of that unknown beautiful man while a woman was giving him a blow job, and he came faster than ever.
