Chapter 2: Open for Business

Dusk Shine or better known as Dusk Light, was readying himself. It was a day coming as he looked around the house of the Bordello. He wondered what his next adventure would be like—at the same time, looking at how he was dressed. He wore the suit he had with the tie off. Yet, at the same time, he felt ridiculous, especially now that he was in Texas.

“I really should try something else out. Go with where we live.” He chuckled.

“What would you suggest wearing Dusk-San?” Sunset said while cleaning up.

“I don’t know something that might scream Texas.” He chuckled while imagining getting on some boots. It turns out they weren’t really in Dallas, Texas but somewhere just thirty miles away, a town is known as Appleoosa, a small quaint town. No one seemed to notice as he came in. He smiled while looking back.

“Well, we’ll come up with something else, I know tonight the reopening, and I know Trixie is set up to have other parts of the house connect closer to the place.” Dusk felt nervous while finding the right words while the Kitsune moves in, rubbing his arm.

“It’ll be fine, Dear; go with the flow. Besides, it’s a new start for you—for all of us. So don’t worry about it.” She said with a smile, Dusk Nodded.

“Yeah, I guess your right. This is a new beginning,” He turned around, kissing Sunset with a gentle smile. Sunset returned the sentiment. “Hmm, we have a few hours before opening up the Bordello. I wonder if we should have some fun before everything gets started?” Dusk’s hand reached down, grabbing ahold of his fox lady’s tails and gently rubbing them as she cooed in excitement.

“Normally I would, but Madame Celestia wants you to be fully ready. But Tonight’s my night, So I’m sure that when you’re off work, and I’ve finished up my cleaning, we could have some fun, make up for lost times.” She cooed more as she wrapped her three tails around him. They were soft to the touch as she leaned in, her breasts pushing against him as they kissed with unbridled lust and passion for the man before her.

They held this position for the longest time as Dusk could feel his heart flutter,

“Hmm, I swear There’s something about you that’s just foxy.” He chuckled before Sunset smacked his arm.

“You should get downstairs and get ready for tonight, master Dusk.” She said, winking, Though her other hand reached down, caressing his balls. The way her hands squeezed the crotch area of his pants. Dusk was tempted to take them off and take her, Yet at the same time, she was right. He needed to get ready.

“See you tonight; maybe we can get Applejack or Ember to watch.” Reminding her of the night they spent in the Hotel, imagining they could recreate that night.

“We could try.” She said as she smacked him with one of those tails as if saying; Git going, you got work to do.

Dusk would smirk, heading right out the bedroom door and down the stairs. He saw some of the girls going around. They waved at him, a few getting ready as they headed to their room. One picked up a candlestick only to get hit with white jizz as one screamed; Found the dick! He shook his head with a light laugh and headed onwards, giving a wave. Bulk was walking with a crutch in one arm, still recovering from the Abaddon attack. He just gave Dusk a thumbs up.

“Welcome back, Boss.” That was all he said.

“Thanks, Bulk. I hope your leg gets better,” Dusk said, looking over at the thing. It was wrapped up. Yet he could see small bits of black ooze escaping it simultaneously. Celestia had told him that Bites like that would take a while to heal, and until then, Bulk was placed under rest, not allowed to work until he was fully recovered.

“Will do, soon as I fix this bum leg. But then I’ll be out kicking ass and taking name for the place.” He chuckled while he hobbled away.

Dusk headed downstairs, giving the nod to the Cyclops. He smirked more, heading down the stairs till he noticed the picture of Braeburn. He sighed, remembering how he last saw the Incubus, and guilt ran over him. The guy had sacrificed his life. Giving it all up to try and protect the house, All he got in return was his heart ripped out.

“Hey, where ever you are now, man. I hope you are doing well for yourself.” If anything, Dusk could consider Braeburn one of the bravest men around, sacrificing himself. Giving it all up, Dusk knew that he didn’t die in vain. He’d pour a drink out for him when he had a chance, a night of remembrance. In a way, he wishes he was at the funeral. Heck, Dusk wishes he knew what they did with the bodies of the few that didn’t make it after the attack. Just a chance to pay his respect to them. To those who sacrificed their lives to try and stop the Demon Abaddon.

Dusk walked downstairs when he heard a knocking on the door. His head turned towards it. His head tilted, somewhat confused.

“We shouldn’t be opened just yet?” He walked overlooking through the peephole. These three people stood. “Who the heck?” Dusk quickly opened the door, Curiosity taking over as he opened the door.

Standing on the front porch were three people, a Black woman, and two guys. The woman was dressed in her Sunday best, a skirt down hiding her ankles and a delicate red blouse as she held a plastic bowl.

“Hi, there stranger, we’re the Crowells; I’m Stellar Flame Crowell; this is my husband Blazing Flame Crowell and our son Sunburst. It’s nice to meet you.” She reached her hand out, and Dusk shook it, smiling.

“I’m Dusk Light; it’s nice to meet you.” In a way, though, he was nervous about the three since the last time he dealt with some random person coming to his door, which resulted in a lot more trouble; No, I have to stop thinking that not everyone here is going to hurt me or the house. What happened before was a mistake, but I can’t live in fear of people.

“It’s nice to meet you, sir, so what brings you to the neighborhood?” She smiled as she looked over at Dusk, the way she smiled showing off her perfect white teeth as she held the plastic Tupperware.

“Oh well, I just needed to get away, and this is where I landed.” He chuckled, yet he found himself still surprised how they never noticed how the house had appeared out of nowhere.

“Well, Dusk, if you’re looking for work, I know my sugar pie Blazing Flame would be able to find you a place at the plant; he’s the manager there if you need it.” She said with a kind smile,

“Oh heavens, I forgot, here we made some brownies for you, a special welcome to Appleoosa.” She almost shoved it into his arms as Dusk looked down with a nervous chuckle.

“Well, thanks, I appreciate it, though I’ve got something set up here. So I shouldn’t have to worry about it.” He kept out the part about the Bordello. While looking back at her.

“Well, that’s excellent, and you should join us for church when you get a chance. I know moving around can be a pain in the tush.”

“Thanks, I’ll consider it; it’s nice to meet you, Stellar Flame.” He looked over for a second; her son, an African American boy with deep blue eyes, rubbed his rear, looking bored. He didn’t want to be here but was forced to. Blazing Flame didn’t look much happier, though he at least seemed to hold out a fake smile.

“Nice to meet you also, Blazing Flame?” Dusk said, holding his hand out, trying to be more friendly though Blazing Flame took it back, shaking,

“Nice to meet you, sorry. Just been a long night, So Not much of a talker.” He let out a long yawn, and Dusk nodded,

“No problem, I normally work late.” He tried giving a warm smile while holding the Container of Brownies.

“Thanks, my girlfriend should like it.” He smiled, imagining Applejack or even Ember would enjoy them as He chuckled more.

“Oh, I hope to meet them soon; Blazing Flames will be hosting the fourth of July Barbeque. When it gets close, you should join.” Stellar Flame smiled while turning back to her husband, holding a thumbs up.

“I’ll remember to set my calendar for it in about six months.” He chuckled while giving a wide smile. Stellar Flame looked over.

“It’s extraordinary. I never thought someone would buy the old Handerson house, but I’m so glad someone could get the place. I imagined someone would take it down or convert it into something terrible. Are there any plans for the place?”

“Well, I was thinking of a few ideas of what I’m gonna do for my home.” He looked over at the Bordello, finding himself more shocked over it while he imagined the magic was working far more. However, Dusk guessed that he should be thankful.

“I’m wondering could we come in. I mean, see the place. I’ve always wanted to check out the place, But Mr. Handerson never really let anyone end. He was a private old man but a real kind fellow.” Stellar Flame said, tilting her head with that friendly voice.

“Um, no thanks right now. It’s a complete mess moving and all that, But maybe when I get some time to settle in.” He chuckled, hoping that would be enough to get her off his back, at least for now.

“Oh, no problem, and if you ever need help cleaning, I know a few girls looking to make some extra cash. This place is huge just for one person.” Dusk felt himself sweating a little more,

“No problem, I’ll keep it in mind.” He couldn’t help thinking about the sexy fox upstairs and half of the staff he hadn’t even met yet. “I’ll have to talk to you guys more and get to know the neighborhood.”

“It’s great meeting you also, though we should get Don out since he has to study; he’s trying to become a doctor, and he’s got to study very hard.” Stellar Flame grabbed her older son’s cheek, who tried pulling away, but it was too late as his momma got ahold of it like a vice grip pinching it.

“Mom, don’t do that, especially in front of the neighbors.”

“But sweety, it’s just your mom now; come on, be nice to the neighbor. You’ve been shy, then you can head off to study,” Stellar Flame said, smiling more as she looked back,

“He’s been a bit stressed, trying to get ready for exams before graduating high school.”

“No problem; besides, I know how he felt.” Dusk chuckled, rubbing his head, feeling more nervous and embarrassed for the kid. Yet he knew perfectly well if he could, he’d love to see his mom again; he missed the woman. “Well, Don, how about you get going for now,” Stellar Flame said as she turned back and smiled onwards.

Dusk watched Sunburst heading off, but before he could react, something caught his eyes; across the street, a man was standing there wearing a white suit leaning against a cane. He couldn’t see the man’s face, but it was like it wasn’t hot as hell the way he stood there. Dusk could see the bottom of his face while looking at him.

“Um, do you guys know who that is?” Dusk pointed across the street, where the Crowells turned back. They looked over for a minute and turned to Dusk, seeming more confused.

“See who?”

“Never mind, it might be the heat; I’m not used to it.” Dusk managed to laugh while the Crowells seemed to laugh,

“Yeap, it’s the heat. I guess the north isn’t that warm. Don’t worry; you’ll get used to it.” Stellar Flame giggled while she grabbed her husband’s hand. He gripped it tighter; not much to say, but he simply nodded.

“Yeah, I better get cooled down. It’s nice meeting you guys.” Dusk gave them a thumbs up. Blazing Flame waved his fingers, and the two started heading off. Dusk watched them leave as he turned back, looking at the man in white.

The man in white watched him for the longest time. Dusk could feel them as he stood there for the longest time; Dusk might have walked across the street to see who he was. Just to figure out who he might have been dealing with. But before he could cross the road, a van drove past them, and the man in white was gone.

“What the?” He shook his head, almost unable to believe what he saw, but soon Dusk shook his head, imagining that maybe this was all just in his head as he turned back and headed back inside. He would reopen the Bordello, and he didn’t have time to worry about some guy in white. He had more things to deal with.
***

Dusk groaned as he looked around, feeling nervous. He wished he had something to drink. Such a thing was valuable. He looked down at the Phone, imagining that he could have given Applejack a call and got a drink. Dusk’s hand reached down about to get it when the other hand stopped him. Holding down, “No, not a good idea; I’ve been drinking too much as it is.” Dusk Gulped while realizing he was heading down a slippery slope, and if he fell, there was no telling how to fall he would lose. That was something he wasn’t willing to do.

“Get it together, Dusk. It’s going to be a good night. We’re going to be fine.” He chuckled, nothing to be afraid about. His fingers were typing away at the computer when he heard the door pull open.

The man standing there was young, as he stood around shuffling around, nervous. He looked like he had just gotten off the train from out of town. At the same time, Dusk smiled at him while moving out from around the desk. He was trying to seem more open while he moved in.

“It’s nice to meet you, sir. Is there anything I can do for you?” He looked over as he watched the man fidget.

“Um yeah, I found this card in my car… Is this place a brothel?” He said, the stutter in his voice. Not sure if he was in the right place and taking a considerable risk.

“We prefer to call ourselves a Bordello.” He smirked, getting a better look at the young man. He didn’t seem like much, a bit rugged, square Jaw. It looked like he could have been all-American High school Football material.

“Is there anything We can get you? What brings you over.” Dusk said, trying to read the boy to see if there was something that he might have wanted or needed. He watched the young man fidget.

“Well, I’m going away for a while, and I figured maybe I could have some fun before heading out.” He gulped, clearly knowing what he was doing was wrong.

“Well, got a name there, Bud. I’m going to need it.” Dusk smiled; he patted the young man’s shoulder, a fever growing on His face. While he nodded,

“Butterscotch, nothing else.” He looked back, clearly not sure if someone was going to walk in at any moment, while Dusk Nodded,

“Dusk Light, now come on, we’ve got a few girls. Even a list, is there something you interested in, help narrow out the list?”

“Sure, make it quick. Cause I don’t want to waste this, I’m not going to be around for long.” He ran his hand over his head while Dusk leaned in, staring back with those calming eyes.

“Is something wrong, man? You look like you are running from something?”

“Just going out of town; I’m heading off from Texas and into the army.” While looking back at Dusk, Butterscotch admitted a more sweat formed on his face.

“Is that so? Well, thank you for your service when you are done yet… Somethings wrong?” Dusk tapped at the keys while bringing out a list of girls, some he hadn’t known. Yet Dusk wouldn’t be surprised even if he didn’t know all the girls around.

“It doesn’t matter, just as long as she’s not well, overly fat or anything.”

“No problem, we try to accommodate some of our girls.” He smiled, giving a gentle nod, reaching around and pulling down a few girls.

“So, who might you be interested in?”

Butterscotch looked down at a few names, each quite interesting as he looked over and soon found his eyes locked onto one of them.

Angel Bunny, Butterscotch looked at the name for a second, like it popped from the page while he looked at it. His mind rushed over as he pointed down at her word. Like an unknown force was pushing him towards it while he tapped on the name.

“I think Angel Bunny, I wouldn’t mind having her for the night.” He gulped lightly while Dusk looked down and nodded,

“Sure thing. Let me see her prices, and I’ll send you up to her room.” He reached over, typing on the computer and accessing Angel’s information and a few seconds waiting for it to load, he watched the young man. Who seemed to calm down now. Yet his head looked back and forth around the room.

“Still nervous?” Dusk said while Butterscotch nodded,

“Well, no reason, you’re the first guy to come in tonight, and we don’t need you are losing your mind,” Dusk smirked while the screen finished loading; Dusk looked back to see the picture, a cute freckled girl with a wide smile.

“Well, here she is, and what might you be looking for?”

“I’m hoping maybe an all-nighter,” Butterscotch said, his face turning into a tomato.

“Well, that’s going to be… Well, this might cost you a pretty penny; I didn’t realize it.” Dusk looked at the screen, seeing that a whole night with her was around two-thousand dollars. He found his butt cheeks tightening at the very idea of spending that much money, yet he looked back at the young man.

“Are you sure you can afford her, cause if not we can find a few other girls who could be cheaper?”

“No, I want her, it’s fine money’s not going to be a problem.” He reached over pulling out a card, and Dusk looked back at him, wondering what he was planning but reached on taking the card knowing that the young man had made his mind up. He shook his head.

“Well if you insist, but hey it’s your money man.” As he ran the card through the card reader, It ended up passing as he handed it back over.

“Have fun, her rooms up twenty-twenty-three.” He reached over handing him a recipe. While Butterscotch Nodded while looking over towards the door. He looked at it for a good second and began walking up the stairs.

Dusk would watch him heading right off. He chuckled lightly hoping at the very least Butterscotch would have a good time with Angel.
