Rent an Escort

The next day, Ariana thought of possible ways to get 'experience'.

Since she was single and it was impossible for her to get a boyfriend in an instant, she searched online for some tips.

There she found some recommendations for getting a boyfriend through dating apps. However, the risk was high and it was hard to say if the opposing party was real or just a scammer. Because Ariana was suspicious in nature, she could not trust this app.

But this was her best chance.

In the end, she suffered thinking about it for days that even her manager noticed her being distracted.

"Why are you not into yourself nowadays? Are you troubled by something?" Mr. Henson, Alliana's manager, was currently driving her to another publishing company.

Mr. Henson was a man in his mid-thirties. He was Ariana's mentor slash manager. His job was to help Ariana familiarize herself with her deceased father's company until Ariana could take over the CEO job herself.

However, Ariana had made it clear to him years ago that she don't want to work in her father's company but to be a novelist instead.

Mr. Henson thought she was just having a rebellious phase so he let her do what she wants. But who would have thought that her first novel would be famous?

Fortunately, Ariana's father has a publishing company. Mr. Henson took over it and let Ariana do what she wants there. So he had become her assistant and manager at the same time.

Ariana studied Mr. Henson closely.

Ever since Ariana met him, this man had always been single. So asking him would not help her in any way, right?

She just sighed.

Mr. Henson heard her heavy sigh. "Common, just tell me. Who knows, I might be able to help you."

"...I need a boyfriend."

Mr. Henson: "..." That's the area he could not help.

Come to think of it, Ariana was already in her twenties and she hadn't had any interaction with the opposite gender. Was she curious to experience a romantic relationship now?

"Not exactly a boyfriend but a man I could have one night stand with." Ariana added.

Mr. Henson: "!"

He looked back at Ariana in shock.

He knew well of Ariana's condition.

Just by looking at how she dressed, she was very conservative that she did not even allow her wrist to be exposed. Her medical condition in the past must have greatly affected her way of dressing, but Mr. Henson knew that Ariana did not even like physical contact.

Much more do that kind of intimate thing to a stranger!

Was she alright?

"Are you stressed?" Mr. Henson asked after a long time.

"I am indeed."

Her readers' complaints were taking a toll on her mentally. She realized they were right and she wants to overcome this bottleneck. She was frustrated about this problem for a long time now.

"Do you want to take a break from writing? I'll help you familiarize yourself with your father's company in the meantime."

"I don't like working in corporate business."

"It is in your inheritance. You will end up taking care of it. Anyway, finding a stranger to do 'it' is not the right way."

"I don't necessarily need to do 'it'. I just need to play with him a bit. I need to touch him, get that feeling and watch his reaction. The other person doesn't need to touch me. I won't allow it."

Mr. Henson: "..." That's more difficult than looking for a one-night stand.

Who would volunteer to be touched and played but not put 'it' in?

Mr. Henson coughed. He was really not the person she should be having a conversation with for this.

"How about you ask some advice from your elder sister?"

Alliana, Ariana's elder sister, was known as a seductive temptress who was sought by many men. A woman like her who played around with men's hearts would know more about in this area than him.

"I already asked her. She said I need experience."

Alliana who was having a hangover in her office sneezed. She never told her sister to get 'experience' though.

Ariana who misinterprets her sister's words continued, "I have thought about it and that is the only way for me to get inspiration. Reading more or watching more doesn't help me anymore. I need to see it with my own eyes and feel it."

Mr. Henson: "..." Can she not say those words with a poker face? It did not match.

Ariana looked out the window and sighed, "Of course asking you won't help me. I am already looking for another way on my own. I searched through dating apps but it's risky. I think the second best option is to hire someone who is willing to do it for me."

Mr. Henson suddenly had a Eureka.

His eyes lit up as he remembered something. He parked his car on the roadside and took out his phone.

"Why did you stop?" Ariana asked in confusion.

Mr. Henson looked excited. "I just remembered something. I have a friend who is an owner of an app where one could rent a night with an escort or muse. It is very secure because they ran a background check on the clients first. If the client chose an escort and the escort approved of it, they could start the deal then. It depends on the escort of how much he charged for the client's request. Of course, it will be expensive but it is nothing for you."

Ariana become interested. "You say that the client can make a request and the escort would name a price for it?"

"Yes. I will ask my friend if the escorts are indeed trustworthy."

Ariana then hesitated, "But...isn't this prostitution?"

"Something like that. Don't worry it is not illegal. It depends on whether the escort or muse accepts the request or not. Some people in society just want to play pretend that they have a boyfriend or girlfriend to introduce to their friends and family. If you really want to spend a night, you have to pay big bucks and make the employee agree first. That's how it works."

"How come you know so much? Have you tried it?"

Mr. Henson: "...." He didn't. But he knows about it because of his nephew who was planning to use the same app due to his medical condition.

Anyway, Mr. Henson defended himself that he never used it for himself even once.

After checking the app, Mr. Henson offered to check the company by himself and to say 'hi' to his old friend. Ariana agreed to wait patiently.

After three days, Mr. Henson's investigation of his friend's company was done. He said that the escort and muse in the app were all clean and trustworthy. After all, they were signed by a big company.

Ariana immediately downloaded the app on her phone. According to Mr. Henson, it would take at least a week before she got approved as a member. The company behind the app needs time to check her background information.

A week passed and Ariana got in.

She typed her request and not only half a day passed when she received the escorts' replies.

Three escorts immediately accepted it.

Ariana checked the three escorts' profiles. They were all fine good-looking men. But none of them fell to her aesthetics. Still, she chose the most harmless looking one among the three.

Afterward, she got a message from that man. The man has an interesting username.

Mr. Flowerboy: [I accept all the conditions above. How do you want to make a payment?]

Ariana paid half first. The rest would be paid after the deed was done.

Mr. Flowerboy: [Looking forward to cooperating with you :} ]
