"You better leave before my roommate comes back" I licked my lower lip, and Greyson and I stared at each other for about a ?"

"Why not?"

"I don’t want you to go"

"You don’t even know ht that he was going to say so romantic and sweet I could fully admit that I was a hopeless romantic, and I waited with bated breath for hi the lines of "I’ve known you all "

"I want to h, and I sed hard as he grabbed ht it to his erection "You did this to me"

"You’re crude" I pulled my hand away from his hardness and looked up at hi"

"Because you turn rab my hand and put it there"

"Put it where?" He sainst you"

"Against ainst rinned at ainst him "Don’t be scared to say the words"

"I’m not scared"

"Can I kiss you?" He looked down at rabbed ain

My brain was buzzing with lust and confusion I could barely forainst hiht to myself I’d never felt this way about a man before Never Not even the men I had dated for months Let alone for a man I’d barely knoenty-four hours

"Will you kiss ue traced the lines of ainst theue touch mine for one quick second before he pulled back "You should leave"

"If that’s what you want" His lips pulled back slightly, and I felt disappointed

"That’s what I want" I nodded ando" He nodded down at s and I felt thehtly before he stepped back "Have a good ave me a quick smile and walked to the door

I listened to the door open and close, and I stood there withthe scene inin anticipation He’d barely touched ht touch of his fingertips against s were on high alert and ue to explore its depths

I sank back against the wall and all I wanted to do was screa was screa at me to leave this place, this club But there was a voice that hispering inme to stay My body was alive and on fire in a way that it had never been before But not only that,on here So that could get sonored the warning bells inI wanted an adventure I wanted to find out what this private club was all about I wanted to find out Greyson’s story I couldn’t lie to uring out as up with Brandon I wanted Greyson Twining Even if it et burned Maybe it was ti back from the flames hadn’t helped me in my love life I was ready to feel the heat

Chapter 3

Nancy and I silently walked to the courtyard I was still out of breath fro to the bathroo for ot back, but we hadn’t had ti behind

"Glad you could join us, girls" Patsy’s face was so we had experienced this irls and frowned to myself Aside fro shot I’d never thought I was old at twenty-five, but standing with all these girls in their late teens made me feel like I was positively ancient I could tell that I wasn’t the only one who had realized that I was the odd one out There was another blond girl staring at hed as they looked me up and down, and I tried not to roll estured for everyone to follow her "This is day one of your three-day orientation"

The blonde who had been staring at me spoke up "When do weabout the heads of security, you’ll bethem today" Patsy’s voice was dry, and I wondered if this was some sort of strip club It would make sense Maybe it was a strip club for the rich, famous, and powerful Maybe this was the sort of club that had no rules I shuddered at the thought of being expected to have sex withcusto stare

"I’m not sure what you mean by that comment This isn’t a Girls Gone Wild video" Patsy looked at the rest of us "Any other impertinent questions?"

We were all silent, and I cheered inside at the jab the blonde had received I was already feeling like the redheaded stepchild, and it was nice to see negative attention directed at soain and frowned to myself I really didn’t understand why I had been chosen to move forward in the probation period I sure didn’t feel like I fit the type they were going for

"Shall we introduce ourselves?" Patsy stopped by a beautiful water fountain, and I looked around the garden again It re, with its tall white colurand--really grand I felt like I was in some rich man’s mansion and not in as possibly a strip club But I suppose I’ve never seen a high-class strip club, only the seedy ones on TV Being in this setting wouldyour body forwith so to do that I’d leave before that happened I wanted to find out as going on, but not that badly

"I’m Elizabeth," the blonde said confidently "I’m nineteen, fro a year off" She smiled "I applied for a job here because I wanted to make some money and explore the world"

I stared at her beautiful smile in confusion In hteen, only I hadn’t been as confident and I certainly wouldn’t have dropped out of school

My brain tuned out as the other girls started talking An overwhel of sadness encompassed me as I stood there I felt like a loser How had I ended up here? What was I doing? Had I lost ree froue university I had an aparte of my own life

But you’re bored, a voice whispered in otten you?

I thought about Katie and the draot hurt hard, but still she was living her life and trying again She was going for it I didn’t want to be the wohty years old and never had a real love or heartbreak
