“It’s frozen and I can’t get the fucker to re-start.”

“Shit. Okay, let me hack into the hotel’s Wi-Fi network, try to remote in and see what’s going on.”

With a frustrated sigh, Ryland ground his teeth together and checked his watch. He’d been gone for almost twenty minutes.

It’s okay. Harper can handle it.

At least he hoped so.

Tillman and Jackie were growing impatient. They’d finished eating and Harper tried to prolong dinner by suggesting dessert or another glass of wine. But they both declined.

“Freddy should be back soon,” Harper said, feigning confidence.

“Maybe, maybe not.” Tillman looked at his watch again. “But in the meantime, we could be using our time more wisely. Don’t you think?”

Beside him, Jackie nodded. “I’m bored. Maybe we could wait for him in there?” She pointed to a private room where Harper had seen several couples disappear earlier. It was probably one of the resort’s infamous sex spots and there was no way she planned on going in there with these two predators ready to devour her.

“I think we should order another round,” Harper suggested, trying to act casual. “On me. What do you say?”

“I say we’re ready to go to the Playroom and have some fun, Annabelle. Why don’t you join us.”

Harper hesitated.No, no, no.Where the hell was Ryland and why was he taking so long?

“If you’re not interested then I’m just going back to the room,” Jackie pouted.

“No!” Harper blurted out and they both sent her a funny look.Relax, Harper. Play it cool.This is all just an act.“I mean, what exactly is the Playroom? This is my first time visiting here, so sorry if I seem a little nervous.”

Her words made them visibly relax and Tillman sent her a wolfish smile.

“It’s a room where we can play, sweet girl.”

A shiver ran down Harper’s spine and she looked down at her lap where she’d shredded her entire napkin into tiny pieces. She didn’t want to go in there with them, but if it could buy Ryland some more time then she didn’t have a choice.

Looking up, she pasted on a smile and said, “Okay.”

“And it’s alright to be nervous.” Jackie placed a hand over hers. “But don’t worry, we’ll be gentle since it’s your first time.”

She and Tillman exchanged a look and smirked.

“Just realize that the Playroom isn’t just for watching. You’re expected to participate,” Tillman added and stood up, beyond ready to go.

Oh, God.Heart thumping madly, Harper slowly stood up.Ryland, where are you?

???

“You got it?” Ryland asked.

“Nearly there,” Banshee said. “Gimme another few minutes.”

Raking a hand through his wild, sun-bleached hair, Ryland mentally went through every curse word he could think of. He hoped Harper was charming the hell out of them and not having any trouble stalling their inevitable advances.

Almost done, sweetheart. Hang in there.

He owed her big-time for helping them pull this off and he planned to pay her back with multiple orgasms.
