Jas in her head
It had been a long week Bills to pay, cats to bathe, and floors that needed scrubbing while bed linens hanged up to dry in the fresh sunshine Nothing she couldn’t handle, but with soon in a short amount of time, she needed more than a drink Jasmine needed an adventure
The soft lights, the plush carpet, and the slightly perfuns that she ca like soht, it wasn’t the “ritziest” However, it was damn near close, and when Jasmine formulated her plan she knew it had to be enacted in The Royal Luxury’s bar and cocktail lounge
The hour was late Not so late that they would soon start shooing people out, but late enough that the post-dinner rush was over The guests here were those who had nowhere else to go, or at least didn’t want to go where they were supposed to be Most of them were alone, like the lass of brown He was older, wrinkled A few gray hairs that added character but detracted froer

She got a furtive glance, but that was it Whatever was on theProbably porn Jaslanced at the man’s lap Maybe not
“Here for business?” He looked it This hotel catered to the wealthy business for a cozy place to sleep and shower Andthe business world, Jas business trips “Or maybe… pleasure?”
