Vegas

The fight in the chopper went by in the blink of an eye, seeming even faster as my eyes darted around below, taking in the fading sunset and the approaching city skyline. The captain directed the chopper to the rooftop of a brightly lit high rise, and my heart thudded with anticipation as I readied myself for whatever I would be facing with Luc.

As if reading my thoughts, Luc reached over and grabbed my hand, squeezing my fingers tightly as he gave me a smile that was half reassuring, half a dangerous promise. I started as his sultry voice came through the headphones I wore, and I realized for the first time we could have been talking through the whole flight.

"You look nervous, Virginia," he purred, his thumb painting small circles on mine.

I swallowed thickly around the apprehension in my throat, shaking my head defiantly.

"I'm not nervous," I lied quickly, distracting myself with unfastening then buckles on my harness.

Luc gave me a sexy smirk which told me he could read my expression and knew the truth. Even after signing the contracts, I honestly didn't know the extent to which I would be expected to perform my duties. I hadn't been in public with any of the Galloway Inc. partners yet, so I was still feeling out the way they each expected me to behave.

"It's alright to be a little nervous, Virginia," Luc said thoughtfully. Then he squeezed my hand again and yanked me towards him, causing me to fall out of my seat and catch myself on his firm thighs. "Being nervous heightens the senses." His nose trailed up the side of my neck, sending a shudder down my spine.

I gasped as his large hand landed on my ass, squeezing hard enough to bruise as he crushed me to his side for a long moment and setting my head abuzz with lust as I arched my back into his touch and gripped his thighs as hard as he was gripping me.

His facial expression darkened for a moment as we tested each other, our lips inches apart, my jade green eyes searching his emerald ones as they searched mine right back, both of us hunting for a reason not to trust the other; any indication that this mission needed to be abandoned before it began.

But I wasn't that girl.

When I was hired to do a job, I did it, no questions asked. I wasn't about to start changing that now.

With a low growl of determination, I surged forward, crashing my lips against Luc's and drawing his bottom lip between my teeth in the next instant, biting down and tugging hard.

Luc's body responded immediately, his hands moving from my ass to my waist and pushing beneath the velvet of my dress to toy with the crisscrossing leather on my stomach as his tongue pushed between my lips and he deepened our kiss with a growl that spoke a dark promise of it's own and said hundred thousand times more than words could have in that moment. I shifted my hands on his thighs, hitching them high enough to feel the long, hard length of his shaft pushing against his suit pants and I ran my thumb across it lightly, a soft moan escaping Luc's lips as I did.

Our lips moved in perfect synchronicity for a desperate moment, until the sound of someone clearing their throat drew my attention and I pulled away from Luc reluctantly. His fingers retreated from my flesh and his eyes darkened as he leaned back and gave me that sexy smirk again.

"Hold that thought, Tesora," he breathed in my ear.

I cocked my head at the unfamiliar word he called me, recognizing his native Italian but having no idea what it meant... although the way it made my pussy clench beneath the soft braids of leather, I figured he could call me a potato in Italian and I'd slather myself in butter and mash myself up for his enjoyment if he'd just keep taking.

He helped me out of the chopper with ease, nodding once to the helicopter pilot before sweeping me towards a doorway and ushering me down the stairs inside.

We paused in front of an elevator and Luc removed a small key from his pocket, turning it in the elevator control panel and eliciting a soft ding as the stainless steel doors slid apart to reveal a luxurious elevator paneled in dark polished wood.

His palm on the small of my back guided me into the small space, and I took a moment to inspect my appearance in the mirror on one wall. My cheeks and chest were flushed pink with arousal and my lips were swollen from Luc's kiss.

I took a moment to smooth a few wild waves of auburn hair back into place, pulling the sash of my dress open and moving to retie it, but as my gaze caught with Luc's in the mirror, my hands fell still at my sides, the dress falling open to reveal the leather outfit underneath.

Luc's throat bobbed and his gaze darkened as it swept from my face down over my full breasts and lower to the place where the leather braiding barely concealed the aching heat at my center.

I watched him hungrily as he devoured my body in the mirror, our eyes meeting again as he slowly tracked his gaze back up to my face. I licked my lips slowly, loving the way my body hummed in anticipation of what Luc could do to it as he stalled forward until his body was pressed flush against mine.

His arms snaked around my waist slowly, fingertips brushing my hips as he gathered the material of the sash in his large hands and tugged sharply, causing me to lurch forward, my hands splaying on the wall in front of me as he followed me forward, his hard cock pressing into the curve of my ass from behind.

I panted as I waited for his next move, but he leaned forward to whisper in my ear, his lips brushing the shell and sending a shiver racing through my whole body as he spoke, "Not yet, Tesora," before tugging the sash closed and tying it tight against my waist, hiding all evidence of the leather beneath it.

I huffed in frustration, my pussy throbbing with the need to be wrapped around his thick cock as he stepped away from me again, his sexy smirk back in place as the elevator dinged, drawing my attention. I glanced at the display above the doors to see what floor we had landed on, my eyebrows disappearing into the fringe of my bangs for a moment as I read the words that glowed down on me in red lights: Galloway Club Private Entrance.
