The masks
I swept the loft before anyone arrived, which is a habit from the shop and also how I know the room is mine. Half-built flats, paint, a bed behind the curtain, bulbs low. I stood in a black turtleneck and black trousers with my auburn hair down my back and a plain black mask in my hand, freckles bare because the mask was not on yet. The list was three people I had invited myself. Nobody from the build. Nobody I direct. Faro is thirty-five. Leif is thirty-two. Sera is twenty-nine, and she had already told me she wanted her mouth on me if the room said yes. I told them the rules at the door. Masks stay on while we fuck. You can leave. You do not touch until I say the room is open. They repeated it back. That is the only foreplay I trust.

I put the mask on. So did they. The loft changed temperature in a way I like, faces gone, hands still specific. I checked once more. Faro nodded. Leif said he would wait until I pointed at him. Sera stepped in close and asked if she could start with her mouth. I said yes, and I said Faro was going to fuck me while she did it. We moved to the mattress I had thrown in the middle, not the bed, because I wanted the whole room in it. I pulled the turtleneck off and the trousers followed. Sera knelt and licked my cunt like she had been thinking about it on the stairs. I held her hair through my fingers and told Faro to get his cock in me.
He knelt behind me and pushed his cock into my cunt, slow until I told him not to be slow. The stretch and Sera's tongue hit at the same time and I swore. Leif stood at the edge with his cock in his hand because I had told him to wait and watch. I liked the picture of him waiting. I told Faro to fuck my cunt properly. He did, deep, hands on my hips, mask bumping my shoulder when he leaned in. Sera licked my clit and moaned into me when I rocked. I came hard, cunt gripping Faro's cock, Sera not letting up until I tugged her hair to ease her. I was not done. I looked at Leif and said his turn, now, I want your cock.
Faro pulled out. Leif took his place and fucked into my cunt, thicker, eager from the wait. Sera kissed my mouth, then went back down and licked me while Leif fucked me. Faro stroked his cock where I could see. I told him to cum on my stomach if he needed to finish, and he did, hot stripes, because I had asked for the mess from him and the fuck from Leif. Leif lasted until I came again, then I told him to pull out and cum across my hip. He did. Sera sat back on her heels, mask still on, grinning under it. I thanked them like a host, because that is what I was. Masks came off after. Names were already known. I liked that we had not needed new ones. They left. I was exact again by the time the door shut, and filthy only in the way my thighs still were.
