neither.” He tilted his head, his emerald eyes burning into me. “There’s just something incredibly arousing about you.”
I laughed. “Yeah, right.”
“I’m serious.” His eyes roamed up and down my body, sending a little chill of excitement through me. “I would love to hear you scream while I fuck you. Maybe next time—”
“There won’t be a next time,” I said firmly, reaching for the lock on the door.
“Oh, playing hard to get? I love that game.”
I looked him in the eye. “This was fun. Hell, this was awesome. But my life is a huge train wreck right now, and I don’t need anyone in it. Taking care of me is enough of a challenge.” I flipped the lock and pulled the door open, shocked to see that a line had formed. I looked back at him, nodding towards the line. “If you’re looking for something a little more permanent, maybe one of these ladies can help you out.” I turned and walked away before he could say anything.
When I got out to my car, I quickly glanced over my shoulder. Nobody was there. Damn! Part of me had hoped that sexy stud wouldn’t take no for an answer. I hadn’t been in Vegas very long and my social life was non-existent so I didn’t know anyone or have any friends. Tonight was my first night since moving here that I had allowed myself to actually have a little fun, although at the time, the idea of fun consisted of a few drinks and heading to my apartment for leftover pizza while watching TV. Earth-shattering sex hadn’t been anywhere on the list.
I got in the car, took one last look in the rearview mirror to see if my sexy stud had made it outside, fought down the bitter bite of disappointment, and headed to my apartment on the not-so-nice side of town. It was for the best. The sex was awesome but I had told him the truth. My life was a wreck and the idea of sharing it with anybody was laughable because nobody in their right mind would want to deal with the drama of my past. Maybe one of these days those memories would be laid to rest, but not now. For now it was me against the world, and that was the way it needed to be. Too bad, though, because – damn – that guy was hot.
I shook my head, chuckling at the idea of having more than a quickie with that guy. His suit, his shoes, his watch, everything screamed money, and lots of it. He was obviously way out of my league, and this was Vegas, where people came and went all the time. He was probably some out-of-town high-roller living large for a few days before going back to whatever normal life usually was for him.
At least I hoped that was the case because I couldn’t resist that smile and I didn’t need that in my life right now.
Chapter 3: Lucifer
I sat at my desk looking over reports for the casino, but it was difficult as fuck to concentrate today because that sexy blonde kept running through my thoughts.
Small talk had been vague and almost nonexistent. Neither of us had given details about our pasts, didn’t even share names. She was there for a good time and I was there… well, I had been there for business research but it didn’t take long to switch gears when I saw how that tight blue dress clung to her curves. We had a few drinks, shared a couple of laughs, and then it was time to get down to business. And then she ran like a thief in the night. It was rare when I wanted to dip my cock into a woman for more than a night – there was just too much variety in the world for that kind of commitment – but I would’ve enjoyed feeling that bit of hotness pressed against me a few more times.
I glanced at my watch. Time to walk the floor and make my presence known. As the owner of Sinsations, the hottest casino on the Strip, it gave the guests something to talk about when they saw me walking around or had an opportunity to talk with me. I pulled my suit jacket off the coat rack and slipped it on as I headed out the door.
“Still not wearing a tie, huh?”
I grinned, looking at Olivia, my assistant.
I laughed. “Yeah, right.”
“I’m serious.” His eyes roamed up and down my body, sending a little chill of excitement through me. “I would love to hear you scream while I fuck you. Maybe next time—”
