"Easy is boring," she retorts. "And anyway, I'll have you with me to help. Right?"

I give a soft snort. "Are you offering me a job, Ms. de Luca?"

"I am. With perks, of course; like going down on the boss every night."

I crack up at that, but she seems serious about the job thing, at least. And hell, it's not as though I don'tneedone.

Plus secretly, I think it might be a good thing for me to be in a position to give a little guidance here and there, if Alessa's ever tempted off the straight and narrow.

We brainstorm late into the night, crafting plans and dreams. Slowly but surely, the possibilities take shape—a revamped Ruby Realm that retains its exclusive allure while operating on the right side of the law. No backroom gambling or money laundering, but the same magnetic atmosphere and female empowerment that first drew women to it.

And all that money and power could then be funneled into the charity arm of Alessa's work. "A shelter. And a community center," Alessa suggests, eyes lighting up. "With networking, educational classes, a fund to help women escape dangerous situations. And members of the Ruby will be required to donate either time or money as a condition of their membership. No, fuck it—they'll be required to donateboth."

I squeeze her hand, equally inspired. "It's perfect. The best of both worlds." And I lean in and kiss her.

When we finally pull apart, Alessa cups my face tenderly. "By the way, Nat, I'm not offering you a job. I'm offering you a partnership."

I catch my breath. "A—partnership?"

"In the Ruby. In the charities. And…" She pauses, then gives a nervous smile. "With me, of course. I love your apartment, Nat, I really do, but I think it makes more sense for you to move into my place. For one thing, I'd have nowhere to put my shoe collection here."

I laugh, but there are happy tears in my eyes as I agree. "Okay. Your place it is…partner."

Partners in every sense, bound by forces even greater than vows or bloodlines.

Bound bylove.

"Well," Alessa says after a moment, "since we've decided that, maybe it's time to give Queens afinal farewell." Her mouth tips up at one side and she gives me a seductive look from beneath her lashes. "A very loud, enjoyable final farewell."

"I'm game," I reply at once.

Alessa lifts my chin, gazing into my eyes. "You'd better be, sweetheart," she says softly. "Because I am going to leave you absolutelywrecked." She gives a wicked smile. "Stand up."

I stand.

She resettles into a comfortable position on the couch, her legs tucked up under her. "Now undress for me."

And I do, piece by piece, taking my time, making it a show. I can feel her eyes on me as I strip, and my whole body buzzes with arousal at the attention.

I know she's watching the way my nipples tighten when the cool air hits my skin, the way my breasts sway as I turn, the way my hips roll as I bend to finish stripping off my panties. I pull my hair over one shoulder and look back over my shoulder at her, shifting my hips in a blatant invitation. "Like what you see?"

She laughs. "Very much so." She uncurls her legs and stands, pushing me down until I'm lying across my two-seater couch, head on a cushion, my legs dangling over the other end. "Every time I look at my sofa at home," Alessa says conversationally, while she strips off quickly, her eyes still on me, "I think about that time we fucked on it. So I feel it's only fair to make some memories on this old thing as well. Agreed?"

I snort. "I don't know if it'll hold up, to be honest. ButI'd be delighted to test its limits." I spread my legs wider, feel my pussy open up. Her eyes laser in on it.

"You're a little tease, aren't you?" she murmurs. But when she moves, she comes to stand at my head. "Move down a little, sweetheart. I want to ride that talented tongue again."

I shuffle a little further down the sofa—it's pretty cramped, but that just makes it hotter, as she kneels down right above my face, hercunt right there above me, tantalizingly out of reach, and she reaches down and spreads herself open."Touch yourself, Natalie. Show me how you like to touch yourself when you think about me."

And while I reach down to obey, to slide my fingers over my clit, she does the same, her hand brushing over herself from base to clit, massaging as she watches me. After a moment, she focuses on her clit,rubbing it in fast circles. She lets out a little moan and I do the same, my fingers seeking out my own nub, rubbing it in sync with her movements.

"Do you want to taste me, darling?" she asks breathlessly.

"Yes."

"Yes, I think I'd like that too." And then she's lowering herself down onto my mouth. I groan as her wet lips brush over my mouth, and I spread her open with my thumbs to lick right up her open, wet flesh with languid tongue strokes that make her shudder. She tastes so good, like heaven, like everything I've ever wanted.

And I can feel her fingers on me, opening up my pussy and spreading the lips wide, tickling a fingertip over my clit.
