away for a while.
Backstage, Penny came in all smiles. Great, everyone! That s wonderful!
Morgan piped up. Models out of the dresses. We ve got two hours to show time. No
food or liquids near the dresses.
We should go to dinner. I m starving. Morgan made a reservation. Penny herded up her
crew.
Grayson stayed back by the changing rooms.
Morgan nodded to him, and Penny frowned. Grayson, dinner. You re invited; all the
models are.
I m guarding the dresses, he said flatly.
She snapped her heels over to him. You re my bodyguard. You go where my body does,
so come on.
I thought he was a model, said a crew member.
I thought he was her boyfriend, Morgan shrugged.
Don t worry about him, Penny said to her people. She ignored all the questions and
turned to him. The hotel doubled security.
Grayson s expression didn t change. She wanted to be the boss now, and he wasn t about
to indulge that. He d been a cop. He could have elephant skin. No. I m guarding the dresses. No
one has made an attempt to attack your person. He d stood stoic in the face of striking teamsters
guarding the non-union office people when he d worked for a private security firm before his
dad had started the business. He could take anything.
The hurt, the confusion and that defensiveness in Penny s eyes were almost too much.
But he couldn t let her manipulate him. If she wanted to talk, she could ask. She wanted him to
cave.
Fine. Stay. She turned and left with her friends and employees.
He heard the fawning of the drag queens and debated if he should ve joined the party
because of them.
Now, he had plenty of time to figure out how to handle her when they went to change for
the show. She needed to see her real needs and how the show would feed her if she let it. How
selfish and naughty she really was. Then, after the show, his poor little rich girl would get a real
dose of punishment. Grayson smiled as he guarded the room. He just couldn t help it. The kinky
plans were so clear he hoped she d be rebellious.
The look she d given him as they left was stubborn. He had the cure for that. He touched
his belt.
Chapter Six
Shrugging out of her regular clothes, Penny wished Grayson had left his tux in his own
hotel room and not moved everything to her suite. Ignoring her was fun for him?
In her underwear, she sat at the vanity and touched up her makeup, adding the
appropriate evening touches.
Grayson pulled on his tux and good shoes. He and Penny were both stubborn. But he
moved in to stand behind her.
What s your problem? she asked.
What s yours? You re the one who shifted mood after a perfectly good experience. Then
you refused to talk. If we didn t have your show, you d be tied up and spanked until you tell me
everything right now. He smacked her ass.
We agreed that it s sex only, not life and business. He wouldn t dare ruin her show or
throw her off now.
I know that, but you might as well tell me the problem. It s not going away. He stood
his ground.
She stared at herself in the mirror. This has been amazing, but tomorrow, we go home.
You don t want to be submissive to me in New York? An eyebrow lifted.
She felt as if she d failed him. I want you anywhere, but no one will believe it.
He knelt down next to her. I wasn t planning on telling the world you like to be spanked
with belts and tied up.
She paused. Maybe it wasn t even a relationship. Do you have others?
Others?
Sex slaves or submissives or whatever you call them?
He chuckled. No, I m not keeping a harem. You re it. But you re hesitating.
No, it s not you. It s me. She stared at them in the mirror. Grayson was muscled,
tanned and sexy. Any woman would want him.
I don t read minds. Tell me all of it.
She took a breath. At times, it feels like you can read my mind. No one will believe a
man like you would go for me. They ll think you re a gold digger.
Because I m poor? I m not poor. Raider s does pretty damn good. We opened an L.A.
branch last year. He smiled. Anyway, that s my problem. [ Pobierz całość w formacie PDF ]
