Chris didn’t bother reacting.

“It’s sad.” Mickey sighed dramatically. “I had such high hopes for you. Do junior partners really make such low salaries?” His fingers traveled across Chris’s chest, circling around his nipples. “I’m assuming you’re not really doing this for money, and I have a feeling it’s also not about the thrill of getting fucked by strangers. So, that only leaves one option…” He lowered his voice into a whisper. “That big guy outside is forcing you, isn’t he? Do you need me to save you like in a kinky Disney movie?”

Chris remained quiet. The last person in the world he trusted to save him was Mickey.

“I’m going to pull my sock from your mouth, and then we will have a calm conversation. You won’t scream, will you?”

Chris shook his head. He didn’t need Jay to come help; he needed to figure out what was happening.

Mickey pulled out the sock and remained close, his body resting alongside Chris. “Better?”

“Yes. What do you want?”

“At the moment, information. Who is that man with whom I negotiated what I can and cannot do to you for money? And don’t lie—you know I can spot liars from miles away.”

“He’s… a friend.”

Mickey squinted, then burst out laughing. “I have to admit, I didnotexpect that answer. Should I really be the one to tell you how important it is to have the right sort of friends?”

“It’s complicated.”

“Yes, forced prostitution usually is. But, luckily for you, I possess the mental capability to comprehend what you might classify ascomplicated.”

Chris sighed. Explaining this messed-up situation was anything but simple, so he decided to keep it straightforward. “I did him wrong a while back, and now he’s getting even.”

“How wrong are we talking here?”

“I got him put in prison.”

Mickey’s eyes widened. “Oh my, you really do live an exciting life. Is he still on probation?”

“Probation? Yeah, I think so."

“Then can’t you report what he’s doing and get him back in prison?”

“I’m not going to do that.” Jay’s dark tale of his incarceration time still haunted Chris.

“Isn’t there another way for him to get even with you?” Mickey asked.

“He’s trying to make a point.”

“Well, point taken, I suppose. Am I right to assume that Anthony isn’t aware of this arrangement?”

He couldn’t stand hearing Mickey speak Anthony’s name. “He doesn’t know.”

“Hmm. Are you and he still friends? I remember you had a falling out after the unfortunate affair at the club.”

Unfortunate affair. “We’re okay now.”

Mickey seemed genuinely pleased, not a good sign. “I’m so happy to hear that. I felt awful after what happened.”

“Did you?”

“Of course!”

“Okay. Can you please tell me what you want?”

“Not yet. This was about gathering intel, which I successfully did. For now, the wheels in my head will continue to spin, and when they stop, you and I will have another friendly chit-chat. You won’t even need to be naked for that! Well, unless you insist.”
