“James, as much as I would enjoy helping you, I have a life beyond this, things of my own to do. I don’t know if I can do that right now. Maybe in a few months, if you and Martie need help I could, but I’m not sure about now.”
Her words didn’t make me happy at all, but still, I smiled. “Fair enough. Tomorrow morning, if you could take care of a few things for me, that would be great. And maybe, if you could just think about it, consider my proposition, I can make it worth the effort.”
“Okay, I’ll think about it.” She smiled.
My mind was racing, which wasn’t uncommon after an opening event. I usually felt energetic and enthused about the success, ready to celebrate. The weather was still bad, so it wasn’t like I wanted to head out.
“I was thinking, to have a bit of fun, you and I could maybe play a bit of strip poker before this whole business thing is over?” I pulled out a new deck of cards I found in the suite.
She was surprised, laughed a little, and eyed the card a second, then stared at me as if thinking. “Alright! But I am going to warn you, I’m really good at poker. What is the wager, or will we be using chips?”
“The wager? Hmm, let me think for a minute.” I leaned back against the couch and studied her lovely face.
I knew a remarkable woman when I saw one. She might get on my nerves and drive me nuts, but she was smart,andshe was good at poker. This deserved some investigation and a really good wager.
“I have it! If I win, you join me in the hot tub, naked, for some hot sex. If you win, what do you want?”
She tapped her finger against her chin, as if thinking, a beautiful smile on her lips.
“I got you beat. If I win, I will video you as you run naked through the lobby of this hotel after breakfast tomorrow morning.” She laughed.
Well, I can’t lose this one, not that I plan on it anyway!
“You're one princess.” I tossed her the deck of cards, moved the pizza box, and waited.
After a few rounds of shuffling the new deck, she was dealing, then she stopped. “Wait! How many pieces of clothing do you have on?”
“I have six on, including my socks. How about you?”
“I have five on.”
Confused, I tried to mentally count and came up with something different. “Not that I have X-ray vision, but are you sure you counted right?”
She giggled an innocent-teenage-girl-having-a-crush giggle. “Yes, I can count. Sometimes I go commando because I hate underwear. It’s cute, but restrictive, and not good for the girl parts.”
She went over to the bed and put something on, then came back.
I couldn’t help but admire the adorable bandana she twisted around her hair. “This counts, right?”
“As long as we have equality. So, keep dealing.”
Before long, the cards were out, and we were playing. Off came one piece of my clothing, I had to let her think I was horrible. Then another, and by the third hand, the bandana around her head came off while I had only lost two socks.
On the fourth hand, she lost a sock. The next time, she got me good, and I had to remove my jacket. After that, we took a break and had a drink. As she sipped her wine, I downed a shot of vodka and we continued.
The next round of play was the most interesting. First, she lost her top, revealing a sexy, black-lace bra that covered her well-endowed chest and had my full attention. She dealt the cards, and we went again.
At this point, my shirt came off, but from there it was all over. I was essentially done playing cards. One by one, her socks, then bra, then pants came off and she was completely naked.
She frowned and bit her lip. “Geez, I thought I would beat you for sure. You must play poker a lot.”
She tossed the cards to the table while I enjoyed the free show.
I wanted nothing more than to nibble every inch of her body before we sunk into that hot tub, but I wouldn’t enjoy it if she pouted. A gambling man by nature, I was willing to bet one more time to give her a chance to recover her losses and make her feel better.
I was so confident in my abilities, and I smiled. “Not really, but I do play, and I play well. Now we both know I won, but in all fairness, we are going to play one more hand of poker. If you win, I will put a piece back on and we will keep going. If I win, you smile and try to forget you lost so we can go hop into the hot tub.”
Her spirits brightened, and I was so taken off guard by how breathtaking she looked, I forgot to deal the cards right away.
