Net of Lies

By Lisa Williams

Chad, a St. Louis native, is a thirty-year-old, very successful, and very handsome consultant. He is also a recent newly single man after he and his longtime girlfriend of six years called it quits over Chad’s newfound love for social media, which became too much for Courtney to handle.

After a couple of months of trying to win her back to no avail, Chad’s doggish ways returned with a vengeance. New to the social media world, his best friend Chris, who introduced him to the new platforms, warned him to be careful because some things and people are not what they seem in this virtual world. That warning though unfortunately fell on deaf ears.

As Chad continues to meet and seduce new women, he will soon find himself in a number of situations where he has bitten off more than he can chew, but there is one rabbit hole with multiple tunnels that if he falls in, he will realize that it will be nearly impossible to climb out of when a revelation shocks and enrages him to the point of destruction while another may have his life and freedom on the line.

Even if he gets out of one situation, will he be able to overcome the other? Will this ladies man listen to his best friends’ advice, or will he let his addiction to this new world continue to let him dig himself deeper into a hole that he can not escape? Are his friends warning that people and things are not what they seem closer to home than Chad could ever know?

Chapter 1

"Damn you’re good! I’m so glad I was in that chat room when I was that day! I would have hated to miss out on you, so what do you say? One more round for the road?" Suzette asked as she lay intertwined with Chad, who was still out of breath from the intense lovemaking the two just had.

"No, I don’t think that will be a good idea Suzette. Actually, I think we might be moving way too fast," Chad said firmly as he loosened his arm from Suzette’s tight grip.

Aggravation filled his handsome face as he sat up in the bed while watching her closely as he ran his hands through his short course hair.

"Too fast? Is this about your ex? The same ex that left you months ago. I thought I was taking your mind off her," Suzette said seductively as a smiled formed across her moist lips, her hand slipping under the sheets to caress Chad’s limp manhood.

"Come on Suzette enough! I think you should leave! Now!" Chad said sternly as he quickly stood and wrapped himself with a nearby robe.

"Fine Chad, I will leave, but remember, you called me over! You should really figure out what it is that you want before you string people along! Fuckin’ with people’s emotions with whatever sick game you’re playing is not a good look! And according to your laptop over there, you’re fuckin’ with a lot more people and their time than just mine!" Suzette yelled.

Remember nigga, I’m on the same site as you, so I know how the incoming alerts sound jerk! The least you could do is put it on fuckin’ silent when I’m here!

Suzette was livid as she grabbed her purse before storming out the house and slamming the door behind her.

Fuck! Chad yelled as he fell back on the bed with his arms spread wide above his head.

Oh shit, he mumbled- suddenly remembering the incoming messages that Suzette had mentioned.

As he quickly jumped up and grabbed his laptop, a sexy smile came across his smooth brown face while looking intently at the screen and reading the invitation from the stranger on the other end.

Want to join me live?

"Do I want to join you? Hell yeah!" Chad said loudly as he accepted the invitation from the sexy, brown-skinned, and half-naked woman on the other end.

"Well, hello sexy, I didn’t think you were going to accept my invitation," the sexy woman said as she walked slowly in front of the screen, leaving nothing to the imagination.

Chad could feel his manhood rise as he watched her slowly rub her thick ass with one hand while caressing her perfect breast with the another.

Her mouthwatering body was only covered with a skimpy, two-piece black lace lingerie set, showing more than enough to get anyone aroused. Her breast looked scrumptious in the sexy lace bra that barely covered her nipples, which were already rock hard- aroused by the sheer anticipation of what was about to go down on the screen in front of her.

"It looks like you know exactly what you want daddy. You’re already dressed for the occasion," she said coyly while looking at Chad’s naked body as he lay across the bed.

"Yeah, uh… you woke me up," Chad lied, smiling before creating a fake yawn.

"I definitely see that something else is also up as well," she said playfully as her eyes diverted to his hard erection below.

What do you want me to do to take care of you this morning? She asked while slowly crawling on the bed, purposely pointing her ass directly in the camera.

I will do anything you want me to do, she purred while looking back and licking her lips before pulling her panties to the side and slowly wiggling her ass seductively; allowing Chad to get a perfect view of her thick round ass as well as her pink wet pussy.

"Rub your pussy… slow," Chad ordered as he grabbed his dick, which was now at full attention.

"That’s it baby… damn you fine as fuck girl! Yeah, that’s it… you got that pussy all wet for me, don’t you?" Chad grunted as he watched her play with herself teasingly.

Yes baby, it’s all wet for you… I want to feel your big, strong dick inside of me daddy! I want to cum all over you! She moaned, spreading her legs wide, giving Chad the perfect view.

"I will soon enough, trust me on that baby… slide your finger inside your pussy… slow… there you go… now another… oh yeah… stretch that shit! Look at me." Chad demanded.

Now imagine that’s me inside of you… make me cum baby! Fuck this dick until I cum! Chad ordered as he stroked his dick while watching her fingers slide in and out of her wet pussy.

Chad stroked his rock-hard member forcefully while watching her fingers get wetter after each dip into her wet hole.

"Fuck me good! You about to make me cum girl!" Chad said through gritted teeth, feeling himself about to explode as he watched her body shudder wildly before laying on her back, legs wide, still fucking herself to orgasm.

Unable to control her own pleasure, she screamed loudly, causing Chad to give in to his own pleasures as well.

Fuck me daddy! Fuck me dadd… SHIT! I... I’m cummi…! She yelled; lips pressed together tightly, not being able to finish her sentence.

"Shit! Got damnit!" Chad yelled as he came hard. His seed landing everywhere, including the camera lens.

For the next two minutes, the two-lay exhausted by the experience they shared on the opposite ends of the camera.

"Mmmm… well, I see I was able to take care of you this morning handsome," she said moments later as they both recovered from their powerful orgasms.

Damn girl, you certainly took care of me, and by the sound of it, it looks like I took care of you too, Chad smiled as he wiped his camera lens with a nearby Kleenex.

"You did baby, and I want some more of it… the real deal. I want that big, strong dick in my mouth… and in my pussy, I want you to fill me up. I want you to tame this pussy. Can you make that happen?"

I can definitely make that happen, where are you located? We can make that happen tonight. I think I might need a few more rounds of that myself, Chad said as he continued to rub his dick, which was still semi erect.

"Same city baby, I only video chat with locals… just in case," she smiled, licking the same fingers that was deep in her pussy only moments earlier.

After the two-exchanged information, agreeing to meet later that night, Chad finished cleaning his laptop before taking a long hot shower.

As he leaned against the beautiful tile wall, Chad allowed the waterfall shower to drench his head and back for a moment as his thoughts went to Suzette. He knew she was beyond upset when he asked her to leave, and he understood why.

It was true that he called her over the night before, just like he had on several occasions, but for Chad, he felt like she was getting too attached, and attached is not what Chad wanted.

The two met online a few months earlier and had been casually kicking it ever since. Chad made it clear from the beginning that he was not looking for a relationship, but it was not looking like Suzette was wanting to respect or accept that anymore.

She was beginning to treat their relationship as being an exclusive one and he was not having that. He knew he was going to have to put a distance between them after she started to leave clothes at his home, which he despised, and told her about many times.

She was also beginning to show a jealous streak, having fits just like she had earlier about his incoming messages. Suzette was beautiful, and he enjoyed her company, her as a person, and certainly the sex.

However, he did not enjoy, or was not happy with the constant text messages, the constant reminders, and snide comments about his ex-girlfriend, along with the constant innuendos of them being together.

She was beginning to overstep her boundaries, and he had to make it clear to her that what she wanted, was not going to happen. Her feelings were hurt, but Chad knew she would come back if he called her, and he knew he would certainly call her again. But for now, he was going to enjoy his new challenge for a few days, just to make sure she got the hint loud and clear that she, and he, were not an item.

Chad had not always been this guy, he was never into social media, or meeting up with people that he randomly met online. All Chad had ever wanted, was to be in a monogamous relationship. To have, and raise a family of his own, but things went to the left when his relationship with his longtime girlfriend, Courtney Ashton did not work out.

The two met in September of 2011 and started to date fairly quickly after that. After six-years of heavy dating, the two had plans to marry the upcoming year. The nearly perfect relationship, however, began to be affected once one of Chad’s boys turned him on to the world of social media. Something that Chad knew about, but never had an interest in, or cared enough about to entertain.

Things changed quickly though when Courtney went away for a week on a job assignment, something that she rarely did for that length of time. Regretfully, Chad found it hard to entertain himself while she was away, being that the two did everything together.

After a few days, he quickly became bored with playing pool and video games, he was really missing his baby and was counting down the days for her return.

One day, after being defeated in a game of NBA 2K18, and almost destroying the expensive controller by throwing it against the wall in frustration, his friend stopped by to visit and have a few drinks.

Instead of being social however, Chris was busy laughing at his phone and scrolling non-stop at whatever it was that was keeping his attention on the screen.

Chad, wanting this type of entertainment for himself, asked his friend what was so funny that kept his constant attention. Not being a part of any social media platform, Chad could not understand what could possibly be so hilarious, or that entertaining through a phone. This unfortunately, was the beginning of the end of Chad’s relationship.

After a few hours, he had signed up for multiple social media platforms, and began to learn how to navigate each one with Chris’ help. What Chad thought would be some weekend entertainment until Courtney arrived back home, turned into an obsession that would hold him tight in its grips, refusing to let go.

Courtney now found herself in competition with a world that was beyond her reach, or control, and she refused to be second best to strangers, and the skanky females that she now saw all through his phone leaving private messages and commenting on his post.

Courtney let Chad know on many occasions how what he was now into was affecting her, but her worries soon fell on deaf ears, until one day, she was not there anymore.

As Chad finished with his shower, he thought of Courtney, and how he had messed things up with her. He wished that he were never introduced to the world of social media. He tried to no avail to salvage the relationship, but Courtney was not having it once she saw how attached he still was to this new world.

After a few months had passed, he started to see her around town with a new man and it broke him to the core, he knew that he had fucked up for good, but he still had hope that one day they would be together again.

After Courtney, no other women held his eye long enough for him to even consider having a relationship with, other than just one of a sexual nature. In his mind, he knew at some point she would come around.

Sadly, during this time his obsession only deepened more with social media, it became his outlet and the further away she drifted the deeper he dived into this make-believe world.

He began to meet many women and started to explore the many options, and varieties of women that were readily available at his fingertips. This led him to dating sites, which were more commonly known as hook up sites, or smash sites depending on who you talked to. Chad began to do things that he had never done before. Randomly hooking up with women.

His DM was filled with messages from thirsty females that were down for whatever. The temptations proved to be too much for Chad to resist, but he was always upfront with everyone that he met and hooked up with. He was very vocal of the fact that he was not looking for a relationship.

Deep down, he was still in love with Courtney, and hoped they would have their time again, but for now, Chad was enjoying being young, handsome, successful, and single.

As Chad laced up his shoes to head out, his phone buzzed, alerting him that he had an incoming message.

Chris is interesting in going to an event near you tomorrow his Facebook message read.

Oh shit! Chad said aloud as he read on.

Hell yeah! The 21st Annual Sigma Xi Scholarship Ball! I’m in that bitch! Chad exclaimed as he clicked the interested button as well, alerting all his friends that he would also be in attendance.

Both Chad and Chris were members of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, which was hosting the event to provide scholarships to African American college bound men within the Urbana, Champaign, Rantoul, and Danville areas of Illinois.

Although this was a meaningful event, it was also an Omega Psi Phi party, and Chad knew what came along with that… beautiful women, and lots of them!

As Chad ordered Alexa to turn the lights off before heading out, he turned to take a quick look inside, making sure everything was in order for the guest he would be expecting that night.

Chapter 2

Chad Townson, at thirty-years old is an extremely successful consultant who has lived his life on the edge, and to the fullest ever since he was a small child. He has been employed for the past six years at a very reputable business management consulting firm in St Louis, Missouri that gifts him an extremely well-earned six-figure income that has allowed him to continue to live his life on the edge and to the fullest every day.

Moreover, any experience or adventure that he could ever imagine is his for the taking if he so desires. Meeting, and entertaining beautiful women that most men could only drool over comes easy for him due to his outgoing personality, along with his strikingly handsome features.

Chad has always been a very charismatic and well put together man. Now and ever since college, women have been fighting for his undivided attention.

Standing at nearly six-feet-four-inches tall, with a body that had not changed much since his football days at Harris-Stowe University, a historically black university located in midtown St. Louis; his body was a gift from the gods.

His broad shoulders, strong arms, rock-hard chiseled chest, and firm stomach; in combination with his powerful, muscular legs and thighs made men work harder in the gym while making women ready to drop their panties at one glance.

Most people find his smooth, pecan colored skin almost mesmerizing to look at, many have said it was almost too perfect to be skin. His handsome chiseled face, which some would argue is his best asset is adorned with a perfectly defined jaw line, accented with a soft, extended goatee, which many has admitted is softer than a pile of down features.

His thick manicured eyebrows set his appearance aside from all others and when he smiled, it was almost blinding with his perfect white teeth and deep dimples.

When he looked at you with his low, piercing, green bedroom eyes, they were enough to send a chill up anyone’s spine that is within his spell. One thing that Chad never had a problem with were women, but he never thought at this point in his life he would still be fuckin’ with so many of them.

If things had gone his way, the original wedding date that was set for the previous month would have been kept and he and Courtney would already be married with a kid on the way.

It had been six months since Courtney left, and there was no indication that she
