Dangerous Bet: Troy's Revenge: Tycoon Club Series

by Red Rose Publishing

  She had spoken to him a few times in New York at a couple of plays, and the women he was with never looked like Fancy.

  “Headley, what are you doing here?” Maxwell asked, joining her at the bar. “I thought Troy told me you didn’t work here anymore.”

  Headley frowned as a pair of moss green eyes studied her. “I see the good news traveled fast. See… I knew he got me fired just to win this damn bet.”

  A deep chuckle set her nerves on end. “I know nothing about that. I’m just surprised to find you here at ten o’clock in the morning.”

  “I came here to see Fancy. You know she works here, don’t you?” She saw Fancy stiffen from the corner of her eye and wondered how much, her friend had flirted with Maxwell before.

  Maxwell’s eyes swung away from her over to Fancy who acted like she was rooted to the spot. A tornado couldn’t have moved her stiff frame. “Yes, I know who Ms. Shayne is,” he answered in a tone that was coolly disapproving. “I was surprised to find out the two of you were friends.”

  “Why would you say that?” She asked in a voice that barely hid her temper. How dare he insult Fancy with her standing right there.

  “Ms. Shayne isn’t anything like you. It would be like comparing day and night when it comes to the two of you. She’s very….I’m not quite sure of the word I’m looking for…”

  Headley was numb with increasing rage and shock at how Maxwell was treating Fancy. He may not like her, but that was no reason to be insulting. “Mr. Reed, Fancy is my friend, and I would appreciate if you were more respectful to her.”

  Looking back at her, Maxwell’s eyebrows shot up under his hat. “I wasn’t trying to insult Fancy at all. She’s a very sweet girl with an outgoing personality. If I was rude to your friend, I apologize.”

  “How about you say that to Fancy instead of me?”

  “No…that’s okay Headley,” Fancy said finally cutting into the conversation. “Mr. Reed didn’t mean any harm.”

  She suppressed her anger under the appearance of indifference. If Fancy wanted to act like Maxwell’s words hadn’t hurt her feelings, then she could. Nevertheless, she wasn’t going to stay any longer.

  “Fine, I’m leaving. I’ve got to find Troy anyway. We have a few things that we need to discuss. Do you know where he is?” She asked Maxwell as she got off the barstool.

  “I just let him at home. I think he was working from there today. I know that he’ll be more than happy if you stopped by for a visit.”

  “Great. I hope you’re right. We need to discuss a few things,” Headley commented, then looked back at Fancy. “I’ll be home later tonight. Why don’t you stop by and we can go out to eat? I haven’t had much time to hear what’s going on in your life.”

  “I wish I could, but I can’t,” Fancy said. “I start my other job tonight and it’s from eleven to seven in the morning. Can I get a rain check?”

  Headley was dying to ask Fancy why she needed another job with the money Tommy was paying her at the Tycoon’s Club, but she didn’t in front of Maxwell.

  He was pretending like he wasn’t playing attention to their conversation, yet he was. It almost seemed like he was more interested in Fancy that she had first thought.

  “Fine, I’ll call you later and see when we can do it. Wish me luck with Troy. You know how he can be.”

  “Good luck and remember what we talked about earlier,” Fancy grinned, then winked.

  “Yeah…and you stay out of trouble,” she laughed and then glanced at Maxwell. “Have a nice day Maxwell and stop being so mean to Fancy. She’s so sweet.”

  “I never said Ms. Shayne wasn’t. Have a nice meeting with Troy,” his voice answered in a deep drawl.

  Headley waved good-bye to the two people in the room and hurried out the door wondering how she was going to approach Troy about her new idea about the bet. She hoped that he was in a good mood and agreed to her idea.

  Chapter Nine

  The muscles in his body burned as his arms cut through the water, but he didn’t care. He was going to finish this last lap in the pool. This was the only thing that gave his body relief anytime his thoughts ran towards Headley.

  He couldn’t believe how seeing her with her father yesterday bothered him. He wasn’t supposed to be feeling like this. All he could think about was wrapping her up in his arms and promising to take all the pain away.

  However, Headley was so strong that she probably would have pushed him away saying she didn’t need or want his help.

  How did things get so complicated between the two of them? All he ever wanted was for Headley to be in his life and now she was, but it wasn’t like he imagined.

  Sure, they had stolen kisses here and there. He felt her attraction to him, but he deserved more than a forced sexual attraction.

  A part of his was starting to realize that Headley may not be the woman for him and that cut at him deep. She was so perfect for him, and yet she couldn’t see right what was in front of her face.

  Swimming to the side of the pool, Troy came to the surface and brushed his hair out of his face. He wiped the water from his eyes and looked right at Headley sitting in a chair staring at him.

  His heart jumped in his chest at the unexpected sight of her. “What are you doing here?”

  “We need to talk about the bet,” Headley answered.

  A sick feeling came to the pit of his stomach. Had Healey found a way to get the money to him or was she here trying to back out? “What do you want to talk about? I’m not backing down on my end of the bet.”

  “I never thought you would,” she replied. “Can you get out of the pool so we can discuss something?”

  “Darling, I don’t think that would be a good idea.”

  “Why not?” She asked.

  “Just trust me. You don’t want me to get out of the pool in front of you. How about you go inside and wait for me in the living room? I’ll meet you in there in about thirty minutes.”

  “Troy, I’ve had a long morning and I don’t have time to play games with you. Can you please get out of the pool and talk to me?”

  “Headley, remember I warned you,” Troy said before he lifted his body out of the water.

  “You’re naked,” Headley gasped as her eyes zoned on his growing erection.

  Headley couldn’t take her eyes off of Troy’s sculptured body. It looked like it had been made by the finest Gods in the world. Thick muscles covered his arms, making them look ultra strong and capable of never letting her go.

  Her eyes moved down to the well-defined six pack that looked as if Troy spent hours in the gym to get. They made her want to drag her tongue across them to see if they tasted as good as they looked.

  Dropping her eyes down, she noticed how cut his thighs were and how there wasn’t an ounce of fat on his entire body. She tried not to think about what Fancy said, but it kept coming back to her. However, her curiosity got the best of her and her eyes moved to take a look.

  Troy’s cock was perfect. Its head was beautifully sculpted, the length and width made her jaw drop open.

  Double Damn! His cock was so thick that she wondered if just the head would even fit inside of her body. Of all the times she had wondered what Troy looked like naked, none of her imaginings had ever came close to how amazing he was.

  There wasn’t a tan line on his perfectly tanned skin. It almost made her wonder if he sunbathed in the nude or if it was natural.

  “Are you enjoying what you’re seeing?” Troy asked as his erection grew another inch.

  “I’m sorry,” she apologized. “I didn’t mean to stare at you. I can leave.”

  Headley started to get up as Troy quickly closed the distance between them and blocked her body in with his.

  “Why are you running away? I don’t care if you see me naked and hard. I’ve never lied about how much I want you. Do you want to touch me?” Taking her hand, Troy placed it in the middle of his chest.

  She could barely contain her gasp of excitement at the
feel of his warm skin under her palm. “You’re so hard. I can’t believe it,” she whispered.

  Her fingers traced the lines of Troy’s chest all the way down to his flat stomach, but stopped before she got to the best part of him. This had to stop before they both got carried away.

  “I can’t do this,” she moaned dropping her hand. “I’ve got to leave.”

  Before she could move a step, Troy grabbed her by the shoulder and yanked her to his body.

  “I’m tired of you always running out on me when things get too hot. Aren’t you ready to give in to what you feel is going on between us. I can’t do it all. You have to meet me halfway unless you’re saying you don’t want me. If you don’t, let me know now and I’ll leave you alone.”

  “I’ll wipe out your father’s debt and you can run back to New York and hide like you’ve been doing for the past ten years of your life. So let me know now, because I’m just about fed up with all this hot and cold shit you’re doing to me. I want you. I’ve wanted you for years, and now it’s up to you. I’m not going to do it anymore.”

  Damn it! Troy was right. She had been telling him that she didn’t want him but he had pushed and pushed until she had to admit to herself that she truly did want him. Hell, she wanted him more now than she did when she was a teenager.

  She was running from so many things when it came to him. She was tired of living for everyone else. For once in her life, she wanted to just to live in the moment and today was going to be that day.

  Standing on tiptoe, she touched her lips to his. “Troy, I’ve been running from you and I don’t want to do that anymore,” she breathed against his firm mouth. “I want to stay here with you. I’m not going to worry about tomorrow.”

  She tried not to flinch as Troy’s grip tightened on her waist. “Are you sure about this? I don’t want you to have any regrets later on.”

  “I’m sure,” Headley whispered before sliding her hands through Troy’s thick hair and kissing him completely.

  Chapter Ten

  Go slow…Don’t rush this. I’ve waited too long for this moment. Troy kept telling himself that over and over as he laid Headley down on the patio chair behind them. The softness of her breasts pressing into his chest made his cock twitch.

  “Say it again,” he whispered as he untied the belt from her cobalt dress. Pushing the fabric away, he stared at her breasts in the matching bra. “I want to hear you tell me again.”

  “I want you,” Headley moaned twisting her body under his. “I know this is wrong, but I can’t help it. I need to have you inside of me.”

  Troy was trying his best to stay calm and slowly work Headley into an uncontrollable frenzy, but the sound of need in her voice sent that thought right out the window. Reclaiming her lips, he tightened his grip on her waist and yanked her body closer to his.

  He couldn’t think of anything more perfect than when he got the pleasure of kissing the wonderful woman in his arms. It was almost like a divine ecstasy.

  Tearing her mouth away from his, Headley pressed her lips against his neck. “Please don’t do this to me. I can’t take it.”

  “Do what?” he asked trailing his fingers all over the exposed skin beneath his. He would never grow tired of learning the shape of his woman’s body.

  “Make me want you as much as I do. It isn’t fair,” Headley moaned as she started scratching his back with her short nails.

  The pain felt wonderful on Troy’s skin and drove him to make Headley his for the rest of their lives. If this was the only chance they got to make love, then he wanted it to be imprinted on her mind forever.

  Lifting Headley up, he completely stripped her out of the dress and tossed it over his shoulder near the pool. He didn’t care where it landed because she wouldn’t need it for a while.

  “You’re so damn perfect,” he uttered running his palms over Headley’s breasts. Her nipples were so hard that they felt like hard pebbles to his palms. “I’m going to love making love to you for the rest of the day.”

  Trailing his fingers down the sides of Headley’s firm breasts, Troy covered the top and nipples with tiny kisses.

  The low moan from Headley’s mouth pushed him to draw it further into his mouth with a slower sucking motion.

  He gently eased her back down on the cushioned seat

  His hand traced a path from Headley’s abdomen, down her legs until he could push her silky thighs apart. He settled between them and almost lost control as the tip of his cock brushed against her warm, wet entrance.

  “Oh,” Headley closed her eyes and purred in the back of her throat. “You feel so good. God, I want more.”

  “No,” he replied. “I’m not giving in to you until I’m good and ready. I’ve waited too damn long for this. I want you just as hungry as I am.”

  Headley’s eyes snapped opened and she stared at him. “You’re going to make me beg for sex?”

  “Sweetheart, I wouldn’t do anything of the sort,” he smiled. “I’m just going to have you so hot that the only thing that can put out your fire is my cock in your tight little body.”

  Troy’s mouth captured Headley’s before she could say a word. He slid his tongue into her mouth in pure masculine possession. He wasn’t going to let her forget who she was with.

  No other man was going to stay in Headley’s mind after today.

  Cupping her firm ass in his hands, he pulled her closer to his body as the tip of his erection slid into her. Her body sucked at him like she had been without a man for years.

  A tiny tremor went through his body as soft hands threaded into his hair. Then Headley arched her body, giving him the silent signal that she wanted him to continue with what he was doing.

  “Gorgeous,” he breathed against her moist mouth. “I knew you would feel like this in my arms.” He tugged her bottom lip between his teeth and nibbled.

  Under him, Headley wigged her butt in his hands.

  Capturing her chin in his hands, he made her look at him. “Do you want more? Do you want to feel me deep inside of you?”

  “You already know the answer to that,” she whispered, softly.

  “Tell me what you want. I don’t want to make any mistakes about this. No regrets when this is over.” Hell, he wasn’t about to let her go after this. Headley was definitely going to marry him after this. Another man wouldn’t ever see her like this and if one tried, he would kill him.

  Passion coursed through his body. After all of these years, he was finally getting to live out his dream. Unless Headley had a change of mind.

  No matter how crazy he was in learning what made her stunning body click, he would stop if she told me to.

  “Tell me,” he uttered brushing his cock against her.

  A pink tongue came out and moistened Headley’s lips. “Tell you what,” she moaned.

  “Don’t play with me. My patience is barely there as it is. Tell me now.”

  “You… I want…no, need you.”

  “Doll, I thought you would never ask,” Troy growled as he quickly repositioned his body so that his mouth replaced his cock.

  Headley jerked at the feel of Troy’s tongue licking the juices from her body. “OMIGOD,” she screamed trying to squirm away from his seeking lips. “You’ve got to stop. I can’t take it.”

  Ignoring her protests, he spread Headley’s thighs further apart, and kept licking at the cream pouring from her body. He couldn’t get enough of her. She tasted sweeter than honey and better than the richest chocolate in the world. He wasn’t about to stop until he got his full.

  All Troy could think about was making Headley’s body love him as much as he wanted her heart to. He might have to win her body over first, but he didn’t give a damn. In the end, Headley would be his for the rest of their lives and she wasn’t going to be able to fight him anymore.

  Keeping her thighs where he wanted them, Troy ate at Headley like a prisoner being served his last meal.

  He didn’t flinch when she grabbed a handful o
f his hair and pressed him even closer to her wet entrance. In fact, it pushed him to lick and suck even harder.

  “Troy! God, don’t Stop!” Her orgasms filled his mouth and he didn’t stop until every last delicious drop was gone from her thrashing body.

  “Oh, baby….you taste so fucking good,” he moaned licking the side of Headley’s legs before kissing his way back up her body. “I can’t wait until I’m inside of you.”

  Without giving Headley a chance to change her mind, he entered her with one sure thrust and was surprised by the resistance that he met. Headley jerked under his body and let out a small cry of protest.

  She tried to push him off her, but he pressed his chest to hers and planted small kisses down the side of her face.

  He was stunned that Headley was still a virgin and proud that he was at first and only man to know her like this.

  “Sweetheart, are you okay?” he whispered near her ear as he tried to let her get used to the feel of him inside of her body. He knew that he was a big man and he didn’t want to scare her.

  “It feels so strange,” she whispered, squirming underneath his body. If Headley kept moving around like that, he would lose the last ounce of gentleman he had left inside of him.

  His cock was painfully hard and he needed to find release with the only woman he had dreamt about for the past ten years.

  Rich brown eyes stared into his as Headley traced his back with her fingertips. The sensation caused him to slowly start thrusting in and out of her tight body. A soft sound coming from Headley’s mouth made him stop.

  “Am I hurting you?” He didn’t want to stop….he would rather cut off his right arm not to, but even now, if Headley told him to stop, he would respect her wishes.

  “No,” she whimpered pulling at his hips. “You feel so good inside of me. I want more…can I please have more?”

  “Shit….!” Troy growled before he pushed his aching cock deeply into Headley’s tightness.

  It had been so long since he had been with a woman like this that he almost lost control when Headley’s teeth started to nibble at his ear.
