25 Cats and dogs

I knew Karl liked me.. I just needed to play a good game so I could manipulate him.. I needed a game plan.. I was still a virgin and the only man I was became close with was Ivan..

They had nothing in common. They were the exact opposite like a yin and yang. Karl grew up surrounded by wealth and privilege like me. We had servants, butlers, maids at our disposal. Ivan grew up in poverty.. nothing was handed to him.. he needed to work so he could put something on the table.

If Ivan was here with me, he could tell me what to do because because he was street smart but I'm by myself in this game of cats and dogs and I must keep Karl interested to the point of obsession.

How I wished I am a good manipulator like my mother..

I relied on my looks and act like a damsel in distress while being hot and cold since he was a man of the world. He already traveled across the Antlantic and already met women from all over the world..

I remembered what Mama told me.. she said men love to chase and they are born hunters so I must let them work hard for me and never give in too easily.

I tried my best to be a temptress where I would show Karl a little bit of my flesh until he blushed and then I would disappear for a day or two before re-emerging again, with another tricks to play, self to bare. I bared my legs the last time we were having dinner.. I wore a long dress with a high slit. I almost felt the intensity of his feelings.. and then I avoided him for 3 straight days..

It went on and on until he cornered me and when I least expected it, he kissed me on my lips..
