Secret Games

  “That’s it?” Cara said.

  “I can’t really stare, Cara.” I started laughing. We haven’t even been here for one second and already we were checking out guys. “We need to get a drink. Let’s order first.” She nodded her agreement and we both studied the drink menus.

  “Oh, my gosh,” I said excitedly as I realized the two guys in the corner were looking over at us.

  “What?” she said.

  “The hot guys are checking us out,” I whispered.

  “Of course they are.” She grinned and winked at me. “We’re hot.”

  “Do not look now but they have spotted us. They have definitely spotted us,” I said in the most uncool fashion possible and before I knew what was happening, Cara had turned around to look at the two guys.

  “Oh, wow, they really are cute,” she said as she looked back at me. “Especially the one in the black shirt.”

  “Oh, Cara,” I groaned as I could see the two guys staring at us and laughing. I knew they knew we had been checking them out. I smiled down at the menu, glad that we were going to have a good night, but I couldn’t stop my mind from going to a certain dark-haired jerk. I hadn’t heard from him and I hadn’t expected to, but a part of me had been hopeful he’d call to apologize or something.

  “Of course I would see you here.” A deep voice sounded from behind me and I froze. Oh my God. It could not be him, could not be Dante. Not just as I’d been thinking about him. I turned around slowly and my heart skipped a beat as I saw his handsome face. It was Dante, of course. He stood there, tall, dark, handsome, a smirk on his face and narrowed eyes.

  “Hello, David,” I said on purpose and he just rolled his eyes as he laughed.

  “Hello, Sadie.” He looked at me for a few seconds. “Enjoying another night out? Are your kids in the next room?” He tilted his head to the side and I wanted to slap the judging look off of his face.

  Cara laughed slightly then and I glared at her. This was not funny. What was he doing here?

  “Hello, I’m Dante.” Dante leaned forward to shake Cara’s hand.

  “I’m Cara, Sadie’s best friend.” She smiled as she shook his hand. Traitor.

  “Nice to meet you, Cara.” He nodded. “Well, enjoy your night, girls,” he said as he got ready to leave us. “I’m here with my cousins, so I should join them.” He nodded toward the two blond men in the corner and I almost groaned aloud. Of course, he’d know the two hot guys. He looked at me with a smirk then, almost as if he could read my thoughts. He just stood there for a few seconds and I resisted the urge to reach out and touch his bicep that was bulging through his suit jacket. Before I knew what had happened, the two guys in the corner were headed toward us and stopped next to Dante.

  “Dante, introduce us to your friends,” the guy in the white shirt that Cara thought was cute said. I could see Cara staring at him, devouring him with her eyes and I almost groaned. This was not what I wanted to happen tonight.

  “This is Sadie, the woman I met through Nana,” Dante said as he looked at the man. “And this is Cara, her friend.”

  “Hi, Cara, I’m Blake.” The guy stepped forward and shook her hand, and I could see her blushing. “And this is Steele.” He nodded toward the other guy that was standing there silently.

  “Hi,” she said. “Nice to meet you.”

  “So, what are you girls doing at the club tonight?” Blake continued with a smile, seemingly not noticing that only he and Cara were the ones talking. “I haven’t seen you two here before.”

  “Oh, we’re not members,” Cara said. “Sadie’s grandma got us a reservation here tonight.”

  “Oh.” He nodded and gave Dante a look. “I see.” He laughed. I didn’t know what he meant by that and I wasn’t about to ask either. “So can we join you ladies?”

  “Oh I don’t . . .” My voice trailed off as plans of the perfect girls night out faded, and Cara gave me a hopeful look. “Sure,” I said and jumped up. “Have a seat. I’m just going to find the ladies’ room.” I moved away from the couches quickly so that I could find the restroom and splash my face with some water. Seeing Dante had stirred something in me. I didn’t want to have to spend the evening with him, but a part of me was excited to see him again. I walked away from the table before anyone could say anything and hurried toward the doorway we had walked through initially. I stumbled down the hallway, trying to find the restrooms and it hit me pretty quickly that I had no idea where I was going. I stared ahead of me and when I heard the footsteps coming down the hallway behind me, I didn’t even have to turn around to guess who it was.

  “Lost?” His deep voice sounded from behind me and I turned around and glared at him.

  “Following me, Dante?”

  “Wow, you remembered my name this time,” he said with a wide smile and I just stared at him. “So do you want help finding the restroom or are you trying to locate your kids?”

  “Uhm, excuse me?” My jaw dropped. Was this guy for real? He was just so rude. It was almost unbelievable.

  “Or did you find a babysitter tonight?”

  “My grandma is looking after the kids tonight.” I looked away from him, my face warm at the fact that I was still perpetuating the lie. “Anyway, where is the restroom?”

  “Follow me,” he said and he turned around abruptly. I followed him down the hallway and then he led me through another door I hadn’t noticed. Before I knew it we were in a private office and I blinked at him.

  “Where are we?” I asked in surprise. “This isn’t the ladies’ room.”

  “There’s a restroom through there,” he said as he pointed to another door. “It’s private.”

  “Are we meant to be here?”

  “It’s fine.” He shrugged. “I’m an investor here. My best friend, Cole owns the club.”

  “Of course.” I rolled my eyes as I walked toward the door. “Why wouldn’t he own it?” I mumbled as I walked away from him. I knew he was rich and it just made me madder to know he was even richer than I’d thought he was. I mean, he had to be, anyone that was an investor in an exclusive club like this had to be absolutely loaded.

  I walked into the restroom and a light came on automatically. I locked the door behind me and walked toward the sink. I turned on the faucet and splashed some water on my face. I then studied my appearance in the mirror and groaned. The dress that had seemed so sexy and sultry at home now looked desperate and slutty and I wasn’t sure what I’d been thinking. I reached into my handbag and grabbed my red lipstick to reapply it. I fluffed my hair and stared at my brown eyes in the mirror. I smiled at myself as I realized I looked good. There was no denying that. I took a deep breath and headed back toward the door. I wouldn’t admit it to anyone, but I was a little excited to see Dante again.

  “Everything okay?” he asked me as I walked back into the office. He was sitting on a black couch in the corner and I nodded as I walked over to him. He was wearing a deep navy blue suit that fit him like a glove and I stopped in front of him. “Have a seat,” he said and he patted the spot next to him.

  “Why?” I said, standing there.

  “So we can talk.”

  “That’s okay. I’d rather go back and have a drink.”

  “Hold on.” He jumped up and walked over to a cherrywood cabinet and opened it. Inside stood a selection of bottles. “What would you like to drink?”

  “I’d like to drink with my friend, thanks.”

  “What’s one drink here with me going to hurt?” he asked, his eyes falling to my partially exposed breasts. I could feel my skin burning as he ate me up with his eyes. Why did he have to be so gosh darn sexy?

  “It’s not going to hurt, but I don’t want one,” I lied.

  “Just one?” he asked and he walked over to me. He stopped right in front of me and I looked up at him. I was tall at five feet eight inches, but he still made me short with his over six foot stature. I wondered if that meant he would have a gigantic penis as well. I went red as I looked down at the
front of his pants and quickly moved my eyes back up to him again. “Like what you see?” He smirked as he took another step toward me. He was way too close to me now.

  “Excuse me?”

  “Come on now, Sadie. Let’s not be coy. I know you’re not a prude. You do have three kids after all.” He reached out and stroked down the curve of my neck. “I find you very attractive.”

  “Really?” I squeaked out. He was so forward. I’d never met a man like him before in my life.

  “Yes, really.” He leaned down and I felt his warm breath on my neck as he kissed me briefly.

  “No, I didn’t mean really to you finding me attractive. I meant really to you telling me you know I’m not a prude because I have three kids.” I stared into his eyes and shook my head. “That is so rude.”

  “I don’t intend to be rude.” He looked apologetic. “I was just stating facts.”

  “Dante, what the hell do you want?” I asked him, suddenly feeling annoyed. I didn’t want to deal with him and his smoldering stares and tantalizing touches. I’d had two glasses of wine at home with Cara before we’d come out and I was starting to feel like maybe the alcohol had gone to my head already as my whole body was starting to feel like it was on fire.

  “I think we both know what I want,” he said, and before I knew what was happening, his lips were pressing down on mine warmly, his hands sliding around my waist, and he was pulling me toward him. I breathed him in and almost melted against him as I felt his hardness against my belly. From what I could tell he was very well-endowed and very aroused. That turned me on even more, and before I could stop myself, I found myself kissing him back passionately, my hands running up to his hair and rubbing the back of his neck. I felt his right hand running down my back and over my ass. I gasped against his lips as I felt his hand pulling the back of my dress up slightly and his fingers ran across my ass.

  “You’re wearing a thong,” he muttered in delight against my lips, before his tongue took possession of my mouth. I groaned as he led me to the couch again and we fell down onto it. My brain was screaming at me wondering what I was doing, but my body couldn’t care less. It had been too long and he was way too hot and sexy. I didn’t even care that he was an asshole.

  I lay back on the couch as he positioned himself on top of me, spreading my legs slightly so he could lean in on me. I felt his lips leaving mine and kissing down my neck, towards my breasts. I closed my eyes, my breathing heavy as I felt his fingers squeezing my breasts through the thin material of the dress. My nipples were hard as he moved the fabric aside and played with them. I moaned as I felt his lips closing down on my breast and he nibbled on my nipple. I could feel my panties were wet as he sucked on one breast and played with the other.

  My entire body was crying out for him and I reached my hand down to touch his cock. He groaned as my fingers squeezed through the material of his pants. He jumped up off the couch and I stared up at him blankly, feeling the loss of his body against mine. He reached down, grabbed my hands and pulled me up. Before I knew what he was doing, he was pulling my dress off and throwing it to the ground, so that I was standing there in just my black thong. His eyes looked at me in desire and he whistled at me before unzipping his trousers and pulling them down. He kicked his shoes off and then took his trousers off. I saw his hard cock bulging in the front of his white briefs and I swallowed hard. Oh my, I thought to myself. I reached forward to grab his cock, but he shook his head and pushed me back down to the couch and then quickly followed suit.

  I felt his fingers on my thong and he pulled it down deftly and off of my feet. I then felt his lips on mine again and as he kissed me, I felt his fingers exploring my wetness. I moaned against his lips as I felt him starting to rub my clit slowly, teasing me and torturing me at the same time. I just wanted to feel him inside of me. He chuckled against my lips as he kissed back down my body and before I knew what was happening, his lips and his tongue were on my sweet spot and he was licking up my juices as if he’d been in a drought and he couldn’t get enough. My whole body was shaking. As he licked on my clit, I could hear myself crying out in pleasure, and I actually screamed as I felt his tongue entering me. “Oh my,” I screamed as his tongue fucked me better than any cock had ever done before. I could feel myself coming as my body orgasmed in intense pleasure.

  But still he didn’t stop, he continued pleasuring me with his tongue and started sucking on my clit as his fingers played with my nipples. I felt myself coming a second time and watched as he kissed his way back up to my lips. “You taste so sweet,” he said as he kissed my lips again and positioned his cock against me. I reached down and pulled his briefs down and his cock sprang free eagerly. I felt it between my legs and I started rubbing him with my fingers, excited to feel him inside of me. I positioned the head of his cock at my opening and waited to feel him enter me. He gave me one deep long kiss and then the next thing I knew he was standing by the couch and picking up my dress. He threw it to me and smiled.

  “I think Cara will be wondering where we are. We should get back,” he said as he stood there and I watched as he quickly pulled his briefs up and grabbed his pants. I stayed there looking at him in shock. What the hell had just happened? I stood up, face burning and pulled my dress on.

  “Where are my panties?” I asked trying to avoid his gaze.

  “Oh, I’m going to keep them,” he said as he picked them up and stuffed them in his pocket. “It will be a nice reminder of the night.”

  “Excuse me. I want them back!” I blinked at him. I was still discombobulated as I stared at him. My whole body was still in recovery mode.

  “What will you do for them?” He winked at me and I watched as he put his shoes on.

  “What’s your problem?” I swallowed, still trying to figure out what the hell had just gone on.

  “Nothing.” He licked his lips like he had just eaten a juicy steak. “I have no problems.”

  I just stared at him and I knew in that moment that there was no way I was going to let Dante Vanderbilt get away with what had just happened. Two people could play his game and I was going to make sure to bring him to his knees, in more ways than one.
