"I know you're very sheltered so don't be shocked if you see some strange things at the party."
"Strange things?" repeated Lithe. "Your manager is always complaining about you coming home completely wasted from those adult parties."
"Well screw Harry, I have certain kinks so soon you will understand why I prefer these kinds of parties."
"That's very blunt of you," said Lithe amused.
"I had a warm time scoring these particular invites. Not everyone is welcome and it's strictly invitation only. No one is forced to attend, you don't have to worry about police raiding for strippers or drugs. Or be anxious about waking up in the news and facing prison time over jailbait or anyone accusing you of doing unsavory things against their will. This is for the wealthy and affluent thrill seekers looking to partake in anonymous and discreet soirees."
Now Lithe hadn't even arrived at the party yet and he was already feeling uneasy.
"Are there any chances of us running into people we know?"
Lithe felt his face get flaming hot.
Back in the day the thought of Ashley walking around in a room full of half naked pleasure seekers would have driven Lithe up the wall.
Today he couldn't care less what Ash did in his spare time.
Now the thought of Ashley flirting with others in that Batman suit was something he did not want to picture in his head.
To Lithe's way of thinking, the sooner they got to the party the sooner they could leave.
He would only have to blend in with the crowd for a few hours and it wouldn't kill him to socialize for a bit.
It was just the thought of being objectified in the skin tight outfit made his skin crawl.
Already he was imagining others with lustful eyes roving all over his toned physique.
If the night was a bust, his plan was to get drunk early and find some corner to sleep it off.
Have Ash wake him up when it was all over and he was ready to leave.
Ash's next words pulled him from his private thoughts.
"That's why what you'll be wearing tonight comes with this."
Lithe couldn't believe he let Ash talk him into putting on the costume.
The mask was the finishing touch.
"Why do I get the catsuit while you get to be batman?"
"Everyone says my lips would make me look good as Bruce Wayne and I have a decent chance of starring in the next Batman flick."
He just ignored that comment since Lithe wasn't about to flatter Ash and add to his already massive ego.
Lithe exclaimed, "It has cat ears for crying out loud."
"That's a purrfect fit," mewed Ash playfully.
It was a black latex full body catsuit that reminded him of the male version of the women's romper.
There was no zipper to be found so to urinate he would have to drop the catsuit to his knees.
Of course, Lithe looked like a cross between a stripper and a dominatrix.
When they were heading out the door Ash handed him a cat o' nine tails.
A multi tail whip that was used back in the day for torture and punishment.
Black was supposed to be slimming but why did it feel like this suit made his hips look wider.
Made his perky ass appear much rounder also his thick thighs didn't appear to get the message.
Lithe tried to step out of the limousine in the long black trench coat that he borrowed from Ash's closet but Ash grabbed it off him and flung it on the car seat before slamming the door.
The moment he left the limousine he stepped onto an immaculate red carpet.
It was a long walk up to the open doors of a sprawling mansion that looked like it could rival George Vanderbuilt's, Biltmore house.
He never should have agreed to going to this party with Ash from the beginning.
Lithe didn't care if he was sulking but already several people.
Both men and women had groped his ass like it was a common occurrence before introducing themselves.
He had heard about swinger parties but he had never seen the action up close until now.
Already he had been abandoned at the entrance by Ash.
Who had gone off to schmooze with some potential sponsors.
Lithe just wanted to hang low.
Find a corner where hardly anyone would notice how uncomfortable he felt around strangers.
Like a trusting fool he left all his belongings at Ash's place.
So he had no choice but to wait until the braying jackass was ready to go home.
No such luck, there were only dark corners on the outside of the mansion.
Light was illuminated from the inside as the interior appeared surprisingly well lit.
It was expected that Lithe would stand out, since most were regulars and even with masks on were familiar with their types.
Lithe didn't expect to hear a vaguely familiar masked voice from behind him asking, "going in?"
What he actually wanted to say was, "no, you can pass me."
Instead Lithe stammered, "I…I.. I am planning to go in, just admiring the scenery."
He felt like a fool, only torches lined the walkway making the mysterious mansion appear even larger and more looming in the dim light.
There was nothing to see outside of the mansion in the dark.
It would have been obvious to anyone that he was stalling for time.
The masked raider was much taller than Lithe and deliberately moved to stand much closer to Lithe.
Something about his stance was reassuring while his smile was enchanting.
"Is this your first time experiencing this kind of party," he questioned.
"Yes, it is."
"Then stay by my side. No one will bother you if you go in with me. Are you willing?"
Lithe nodded.
The man held out his hand Lithe accepted his escort into the mansion.
True to his words no one dared to grab his ass with him around.
The Zorro look alike urged Lithe forward before he could relax.
"Remember, this party is about having a good time. Know your limits and don't be afraid to say no or feel pressured to perform."
Why did this man's words seem so ominous?
He felt too insecure to even understand what the stranger was hinting at?
Lithe just nodded and blindly followed him into the mansion.
