“Fuck you,” she growls, pushing off the sofa and straightening her clothes. Her movements are jerky and she refuses to meet my eyes as she puts her tits back into the cups of her bra.

I cock a brow at the vitriol spewing from her mouth. I didn’t expect it, but I like that it’s there. I don’t like someone to be a fucking pushover. “Babe, don’t make this harder than it has to be.”

Angry eyes meet mine. “Am I that repulsive that you can’t bring yourself to sleep with me?”

“Not at all.” She’s fucking gorgeous, and I’m not sure she knows it, which adds to the appeal.

“So I’m a virgin. It doesn’t mean I can’t do it,” Alice says as she gets in my face, and I realise I’ve underestimated her. She’s not this innocent flower I thought she was. The woman has a temper.

“Goodbye, Alice.” My tone is firm. This has gone too far. I need to stop it now before things happen that can’t be undone. I’m not sure when the fuck I developed a conscience, but I can’t bring myself to take her. She’s not like the other bitches I surround myself with. She hasn’t been tainted yet. It feels criminal to touch Alice.

She grabs my wrist, stopping me from leaving. I could easily pull free, but I don’t. Instead, I turn to face her, letting my confusion bleed onto my face. There’s a desperation in her eyes that puts me on edge.

“Please.”

“You want to tell me why it’s so important to lose your virginity here and now?”

Her eyes don’t waver from mine. “I never said it was important.”

“You didn’t have to. I can tell.”

“Fine, if you’re not going to do it, I’ll find someone else.”

Her words piss me off. I growl under my breath. I don’t know why, but the thought of someone else touching her makes red film my vision. Images of someone else between her legs, tasting that pretty pussy of hers dance across my mind.

Fuck. No.

I put a hand against the door, stopping her from opening it.

Alice peers up at me, her mouth pulled into a tight line. “Move.”

“No.”

“Luke—”

“Little dove, there are better ways to lose your virginity than in some back room on a dirty sofa.”

The heavy look in her eyes and the dare in her expression twist me up inside.

“So show me.”

Fuck, my dick hardens in my trousers as I stare down at her. All that blonde hair and those big expressive fucking eyes… My cock wants her even as my head tells me this is a bad idea. “You’re going to do this no matter what.”

She nods. I curse under my breath. I should let her go so she can find someone else, but I can’t. Not when the thought of another man touching her makes an irrational rage grow within me. The strength of emotion surprises me because I’ve never felt shit for anyone outside of my family before, but she’s a rose among a field of weeds. If I let her go, she’ll be swallowed up by the foliage. I can’t allow that to happen. “Follow me.”

I don’t give her the chance to say no. I take her hand in mine. When I step out of the office, Winters is waiting at the end of the corridor. He doesn’t let a single emotion slide onto his face as he follows us back out into the club. The music is loud, but I focus on her hand in mine. She feels small, vulnerable. She’s trembling against me as we step outside into the cooler air.

The three of us wait for the valet to bring the car back around. She eyes Winters curiously but doesn’t ask about him. When the car roars up to the pavement, Winters climbs in the front while Alice and I get in the back.

Winters glances at me in the rear-view mirror, looking for directions.

“Viewpoint,” I tell him.

He doesn’t react. I’ve been to the hotel many times with many different women. Alice is a notch in a long line of other notches. She doesn’t feel like that though. She feels like something more. I’m doing her a fucking service by stopping someone else from taking her. At least with me she’ll get a good fucking night out of it.

Winters stops the car outside the front entrance of the hotel and climbs out. He heads inside to rent a room for us. Alice peers out of the side window and I can see how nervous she is.

When Winters returns to the car, I grab her hand and pull her out of the vehicle. Winters hands me a key card and I see the first hint of disapproval flash across his face.

Judgy prick.

Considering his past, he’s got no fucking room to talk.

I lead Alice into the building and to the lift with Winters following after us. We head to the sixth floor and make our way to the room. The corridors are bright, airy, and quiet, too, given the late hour. When we reach the right room number, I slide the card into the key slot and the green light flashes. I step back and let Winters enter first. He checks the room is safe and then comes back to the door. He gives me a nod before he moves to wait in the corridor where he’ll stay all night.

Stepping inside the hotel room, I hold the door open for Alice, who moves deeper inside. There’s a large bed against one wall, pristine white sheets on the bed, a desk against one wall, and a love seat in the window. It’s clean, and luxurious as fuck.

Usually, the women I bring here have a reaction to seeing the room for the first time. Surprisingly, Alice doesn’t. Her gaze skims her surroundings before coming back to me.

Fuck, I can’t believe I’m going to do this shit.
