The lap dance mercifully comes to an end. Collin gets one too, but he’s a more willing participant.

We all make our way down the slide into the foam. We dance in the foam for hours. We’re all hot and sweaty, but we’re having a blast.

It’s pushing 3:00 in the morning, and we’re still dancing. Reagan yells out, “You know, if we stay until the morning, there’s a buffet.”

I look at her in question.

She smiles. “Yes, all strip clubs have morning buffets. It’s a little-known fact.”

What? That’s the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard. I can do nothing but shake my head and laugh. “Do you speak from experience?”

She smiles and nods her head.

Reagan has such a refreshing love and enjoyment for life. I think she could have fun anywhere. I find myself just staring at her at times.

Collin whispers, “You’ve got it bad.” I think he may be right.

CHAPTERTEN

REAGAN

I’m awakened at noon the next day to a million texts from my friends and family. Before I have a chance to read any of them, I hear my front door open and close. Harley walks in.

She looks around. “Where’s Carter? I assumed he’d be here.”

“Um, he had to leave early. Some work commitment.”

“Damn, I wanted to walk in on you, like you always do to me.”

I smile. “You’ve got to be quicker than that to get one over on me, big sister.”

She laughs. “Have you been online?”

“No. I was happily sleeping until you woke me. Why?”

“Your picture is all over the place. Did you guys go to a strip club last night?”

“It was a club opening that also had strippers in attendance. I wouldn’t call it a strip club, per se.”

“Well, there are tons of pictures of you and Carter getting it on.” I doubt that being that we’ve never gotten it on. Though he did look delicious last night. There were a few times I had to stop myself from kissing him.

She shows me her phone. It’s amazing how things appear from certain angles. Sure enough, there are pictures of us embracing when I arrived, dancing closely in the foam, and walking out arm in arm with big smiles. It does look like we’re all over each other. It certainly looks like we’re having a great time.

Most of the headlines are along the lines of:

Daulton Holdings Heir Apparent Playboy Carter Daulton Seen Getting Close to Stunning Young Entrepreneur Reagan Lawrence, Stepdaughter of Billionaire Developer Jackson Knight. The Two Have Been Spotted Throughout Town Canoodling for Weeks and Are Said to Be on The Fast Track to Serious Town.

I look up at Harley. “Jackson’s a billionaire?”

She shrugs. “I don’t know. I’ve never asked him how much money he has. Obviously, it’s a lot, but I don’t know how much.”

“He doesn’t act like a billionaire.”

“Because he’s not an excessive asshole?”

“Yes.”

“Who knows? Who cares?” She smirks. “More importantly, are you on the fast track to serious town?”
