“Why am I here?”
“I’ve told you.”
“No…why am Ireallyhere?”
“I’ve told you.” I turn around and approach her.
Never before have I felt more like a predator. A lion stalking toward his dinner for the night as she stands there small and defenseless. I can smell the fear on her, but also something else—a feminine, heady scent that’s unlike anything I’ve ever smelled before; no artificial perfume can create an aroma like this, so naturally sweet and unfiltered.
It’sherI’m smelling. Pheromones or whatever the fuck. The idea this is what her pussy could smell like, infects my brain. Hardens my dick as it stirs in my pants.
Both of our gazes dip to my groin. It’s an unavoidable, large bulge…which says a lot as I’m already larger than most down below.
When I look up at her again, her dark and emotive eyes fill with curiosity. Heat has flushed onto her marvelously honey-brown skin. She nibbles on her bottom lip and her brows push together. I can practicallyseeher thinking. She’s weighing her options.
Probably whether she should fuck me or not.
But what she doesn’t know is the decision is already made for her. No woman has ever said no to me before. Tonight will be no different.
“Drink,” I order again. “This champagne is very expensive.”
“Why didn’t you just screw me in the VIP room?” she blurts out suddenly. She hasn’t so much as sipped from the champagne. Something about this annoys me. “If this is about our ‘transaction’ or whatever you keep calling it, why not just receive my ‘services’ there?”
She does air quotes for the wordstransactionandservices. My annoyance from her not drinking the champagne fades. I can’t help feeling amused watching her curl her index and middle finger. This woman is so…so sexy, but also so…so irresistiblydifferentthan the ditz-for-brains I’m used to.
“Tell me, Falynn,” I say with a tinge of humor, “would you rather me fuck you against the wall of a dirty VIP room in a strip club, or in a king-size bed at a luxury hotel? Has it not occurred to you I’m treating you with respect by offering a better experience?”
Again, she proves how different she is. She scoffs. Right in my face. It’s a first as, when I rack my brain to think of other times this has happened, my memory draws blank. Nobody has ever scoffed at me before.
Probably because everybody is scared shitless of me.
It’s bold. It’s…refreshing.
“You respect me?” she repeats. She sets down the flute of champagne and folds her arms across her chest. “Is it possible to respect a woman you’re paying to suck your dick?”
“You tell me. You’re the escort.”
“I’m not… I’ve never… I don’t…” She fumbles for more words, but comes up short before trailing off. That spark of boldness she’s mustered up is gone again. “Tonight would’ve been my first night.”
For a second, I don’t understand until I look into her eyes. The sensuous imagery of this woman swinging on the pole on stage and gyrating her hips in the VIP room vanishes from my mind. As does the blood pumping to my cock, making it hard. At least for the moment, my curiosity takes the lead.
I drain my champagne. “Why?”
She only stares.
“Why were you going to do it? For the first time, tonight…why?”
She sighs and pulls Robby’s jacket tighter. “Times are hard, okay? I have to make money somehow. Working the stage isn’t cutting it like before.”
“Why?”
Her right brow ticks upward. “Because…wait, do you really want to know, or is this more bullshit?” More moxie. I’m surprised I like it so much.
“I promise I have not bullshitted you once tonight.”
“My boyfriend’s gone,” she says fast. Almost as if the faster she speaks, the less humiliating the confession will be. She reaches for the flute of champagne she set down and tosses it back whole. “Not gone as in dead. But he’s caught a case. It’s looking like he’s not getting off this time. We’ve got bills and plenty of debts to pay—hehad lots of debts to pay.”
A prickle of irritation pinches at me. I’m not able to hide the judgment from my face. The disgust that a man who is fortunate enough to have Falynn in his bed, to call her his, has left her with nothing but money troubles. He’s gotten mixed up with the law and failed to ensure she is taken care of.
