“That’s old news.”
“Oh? I didn’t realize. What happened?”
“He started getting a little weird. Too weird for me, even. I decided it was time to start looking elsewhere.”
I give her an amused look.
“Too weird
for you
? I didn’t even know such a thing was possible!”
“Right? He started getting a little clingy, and had this paperwork he wanted me to sign just so we could date. I mean, I understand that the guy is rich, but when did we start needing pre-nups just to hang out and have sex?”
I belt out a little laugh.
“Maybe you’re right to stay away from him, then.”
She bounces a little on the edge of the bed, excited.
“I want to be jetting off to Europe like you are with your Sexy Brit. You said he has brothers, right? You need to hook me up.”
“I’ll see what I can do, but I’m taking it one step at a time, for now. Not working at BMG and leaving the country on a whim is about all the excitement my brain can process right now. Besides, I don’t think that his brothers live in London, he said they’re kind of spread out…”
Tawny’s nose scrunches up, again, as she gives me a sour look.
“Oh fine... It’s for the best anyway, I think there might be a little something starting with one of the attending surgeons at the hospital, anyway.”
I cock an eyebrow.
“You’re not holding out on juicy gossip, are you?”
A devious little smile tugs at the corner of her lips.
“There isn’t much gossip to share yet, other than a couple close run-ins that lingered a little longer than they should have.”
“Well, even if I’m in London, I expect to hear about
everything
that goes on around here!”
“For a free place to live I’ll make sure I have plenty of crazy stories to share with you.”
I fix her with a playful look.
“Not
too
crazy, though. I don’t want you getting us kicked out of here if I’m not at least around to take part in all of the fun.”
Tawny sits up straight and crosses her heart with a finger.
“You can count on me!”
I give her a warm smile.
“I know I can. You’re a good friend.”
We spend the rest of the night picking out the clothes that I might need in London. She tells me that I shouldn’t even worry about it, that I should just buy new clothes when I get there. A part of me likes that idea, while another part of me wants the comfort of something familiar while I’m gone. There’s going to be a lot of new and strange things going on, and it might be nice to have something familiar along with me.
That night I lay in bed for a long time, completely unable to sleep, wondering what Isaac is up to. Tomorrow everything changes.
How am I supposed to sleep with so much looming in front of me?
“I need to travel first class more often. I could get used to this!”
I settle myself even deeper into the massive, comfy chair. It’s nearly as big as the sofa in my apartment. We’re already ascending high into the air, leaving the beautiful, New York skyline well behind us.
“Only the best for my kitten,” Isaac says.
He gives me a sideways smile as he leans in close for a quick kiss. I have to resist the urge to pull him onto me right then and there. That would make quite a sight for the other passengers.
“You mean to tell me that you’ve never flown first class?”
“Never!”
He gives me a fierce little grin.
“And what about the Mile High Club? Are you a member?”
I frown, giving him a confused look.
“I don’t think so. I don’t even know what that is.”
“Believe me, kitten, you would know it if you were.”
“Are
you
a member?”
His brow rises.
“Actually, no. Perhaps we should both join it together?”
I give him a warm smile.
“As long as you’re involved then I’ll do it.”
He shoots me that sexy little smirk of his one more time before leaning in to press another kiss on my lips. My lips part as his tongue delves forward to play with my own. I suck on it, wanting to take even more of him into my mouth. When we finally break apart, there’s an emptiness that leaves me wanting a lot more.
“You should be careful what you agree to,” Isaac says.
“I trust you…”
For a moment, Isaac appears taken aback by the comment.
“I love you so much. I can’t wait for you to meet me mum—I know you two are going to hit it off.”
My stomach wraps itself into a tight knot.
“Meet your mum?” I repeat, blankly.
Isaac nods.
“Of course. She’d never let me get away with bringing a girl back home and not introducing her. She’d tan me arse seven ways from Sunday… and then she’d
really
start letting me have it!”
I shake my head, letting out a little laugh.
“I just didn’t think… I wasn’t expecting to…”
“Don’t worry, you’ll do just fine. For now, we have a club to join…”
“We can join the club now?” I ask, confused.
He nods.
“You sit tight. In two minutes, come meet me in the loo…”
He gives me a fierce, sexy grin as he unhooks his seat belt and slides into the aisle. My mouth drops open when I realize what he means by the Mile High Club. Carnal warmth surges through me while I count down the minutes. When it’s time, I unclip my seat belt and slip off, nervously.
I’m about to do something crazy. But that’s what life with Isaac is all about, isn’t it? Ever since I first met him I’d been doing things I never thought I would do. He knows how to push me out of my comfort zone. And, no matter how hard he pushes, he still manages to make me feel safe and protected. It’s just one of the many reasons I’ve fallen hopelessly in love with the Sexy Brit.
With
my
Sexy Brit.

Music pumps from deep within the dark, narrow hallways of
Club Addiction
. The sounds are familiar. Their rhythm moves faster and faster, along with the pounding of my heart. The dim lighting sets the mood, adding to the mystique.
It’s in these moments, with my hand pressed into the small of a sexy girl’s back, guiding her through the club, that I feel the most alive.
“Where are you taking me?” the girl asks.
She flashes me an eager smile. We’ve known each other for less than an hour and yet she’s not nervous or hesitant to let me lead her wherever I want.
“You’ll see,” I say.
I give her one of my charming smiles. I can almost feel her wanting to melt into me with each crooked step she takes. Girls have never been able to resist that smile. Especially not after they’ve had a few drinks—when it’s obvious they’re looking for a good time.
“I hope we get there, soon.”
“Patience is a virtue.”
“You know, I’m not used to guys making me wait.”
“I’m not like most guys.”
She gives me that smile, again, this time there’s a hazy look behind her beautiful blue eyes.
“I can tell.”
The fabric of her dress is soft beneath my touch. I can feel the gentle slope in the small of her back as I lead her down the hall, closer and closer to where we’re going—my own private, little place. It’s the place I like to bring girls—one of the few places in my club that you can get any real privacy. And there’s only one other person with a key to this particular room.
Her dress hugs tight to her body, outlining every one of her curves, down to her thighs. It’s cut into a low at the top, revealing the bulges of her large breasts. They’re probably fake. She seems like the kind of girl that might get some work done. But that’s not really important. Neither one of us are really looking to get into a serious thing.
Tonight is all about some fun.
I lick my lips before they peel back in another smile as I admire the way her legs disappear beneath the short dress. They’re long and toned, and my mind has been racing with visions of them wrapped around me ever since I first saw her walk into my club.
“Like what you see?” she asks.
“Not as much as what I’m about to see…”
“Oh really? What makes you think you’re going to get so lucky?”
In one quick movement I wrap my arm around her, turning her to face me as I press her up against the wall. She lets out a gasp of surprise, and then delight when she sees the heated look in my eyes. The music beat is so hard that it sends trembles through the wall and into our bodies.
“I don’t think I’m going to get lucky,” I say, my voice low and intense.
Her blue eyes shift quickly between my own.
“You don’t?” she squeaks out.
I shake my head.
“I think
you
are.”
A long, intense moment passes between us. She licks her lips, still unable to break away from my stare. Her chest rises and falls with heavy breaths, drawing my attention down to her breasts. My cock shifts as it bulges to life in my pants, and for a moment I consider taking her right there in the hallway.
She’s a hot, little thing, and it might be fun to have my way with her right then and there. The eagerness is plain in her eyes. I know I can do whatever I want with her—she won’t refuse me. In that moment I know I can have anything that I want. Her lips tremble and her head tilts back, as though she’s expecting me to kiss her or something.
It’s almost too easy.
I draw in a deep breath, composing myself. This isn’t the time or place. I’m not ready to have her—not quite yet. There’s still some more fun I can have before I’m done with her.
When I pull away from her she exhales, sharply, as though she hadn’t been able to breathe with me so close to her. The desperate look is still in her eyes. I hold my hand out to her and she gives it a hesitant look before taking it. Her touch is softer and more delicate than it had been just moments earlier. Just the thought of her giving in to my charms so easily sends my heart racing, even if it was exactly what I knew she would do.
I lead her further down the winding hallway until we come to a final closed door. Anticipation builds inside of me as I slide a card through the magnetic reader on the door and punch a four-digit code into the keypad. Her eyes are on me the whole time, watching me, intently. I can almost imagine what she might be thinking, what she must be fantasizing about.
But whatever that is gets quickly washed away when I open the door and reveal the luxurious room to her. She steps past me, into the room. Her eyes widen and her mouth drops open as she takes it all in. I shut the door behind us as I follow close behind.
“Wow…” she exhales, excitedly. She slowly makes her way around the room, touching and admiring everything she passes.
“You like it?” I ask.
“Everything looks so expensive.”
If she only knew…
“Money can’t buy class.”
“But it can buy a lot…”
She smiles up at me with a devious little look in her eye. The subtext is obvious, but it doesn’t come as any surprise to me. She’s the kind of girl that would be open to a quid-pro-quo type of arrangement. And if she’d met me a few months earlier, I might have even entertained the idea of one.
“How about we start with another drink,” I suggest, not giving her the satisfaction of responding directly to her suggestion. “Another vodka martini?”
She gives a quick look at the ground, as though embarrassed, then gives me a quick smile and nod as she brushes strands of her blonde hair back behind one ear. I set out two martini glasses on the minibar while she continues looking around my private sanctuary—the place where I do all of my dark deeds.
Well… most of them.
