  “I’m glad you didn’t get fired. Here, let me at least give you a ride home,” he said insistently.

  She started to protest, but he cut her off. “It’s the least I can do, and it’s late.”

  Coincidentally, she had taken an Uber to work because she had been running extremely late. It was a miracle that she had made it on time—unlike the poor busboy who got fired on the spot. Penny bit her lip in hesitation.

  “Okay,” she finally conceded with a small sigh. It wasn’t often she got to go for a ride in a limo, and she was happy to make it happen. She definitely didn’t agree because she wanted to spend a little more time with the handsome man. Definitely not.

  “You know, I’ve been thinking about you a lot over the past few days. I really can’t seem to get you off my mind, in fact,” Chase said truthfully as they settled in. He hoped he’d finally be able to get an idea of what was going on inside her head, but his heart sank when she shook her head with a sad smile.

  “I appreciate that, but I don’t date people I meet at the club. It’s sort of a personal policy I made for myself a long time ago when I first started working there, and it’s something that I’m going to stick with, no matter how charming the man might be.” She shot him a small smile that he returned. They rode in silence for a moment before he suddenly motioned to the limo driver.

  They pulled off the side of the road into a parking lot of a small diner, and she gave him a look of confusion. Chase only smiled and motioned for her to come along with him. Penny did, and the two of them sat down inside the diner.

  “What’s all this?” she asked with a bemused smile.

  “You said that you don’t date people you meet at work. Well, we haven’t really officially met now, have we? At least, I don’t think so. I’m Chase Ellis,” he said with a grin.

  Penny blinked, staring at him. She didn’t know what she was expecting when it came to Chase Ellis, but this was certainly a surprise.

  “I’m Penny Connor. It’s nice to meet you,” she said with a small laugh.

  Before they could say anything more, their waitress came over to take their orders. As they waited for their food to arrive, he gave her another mischievous look. “You see? We didn’t meet at your work now, did we?”

  “I guess you could say that. Seems like a loophole to me,” she said with a shake of her head. “Clever.”

  They chatted away, but there was no denying the connection that grew between them. Chase couldn’t get enough of the girl. He wanted to know more about her, and even more after that. Everything about her fascinated him, from her childhood to her dreams of building her own business. She was so full of life and aspirations and held her own in a heated conversation. It was hard for him to find women he could talk to without having to explain something.

  When they’d finished their late-night meal, they went back to the limo and settled inside.

  “That was lovely,” Penny said with a smile. “Thank you.”

  “You’re welcome,” Chase said. He gazed at her, drinking in her beautiful features.

  Their knees were touching and he could feel a heat between them. He found himself getting drawn to her, his body inching forward slowly until there was barely an inch between them. He could see each thick lash that framed her beautiful eyes and the light freckles across her nose. When her eyes fluttered slightly, he couldn’t take it anymore. He closed the distance between them and pressed his lips to hers gently. Cliché as it may be, he swore he felt a spark travel throughout his whole body. The softness of her plump lips was agonizingly delicious, and the warmth she emanated heated him up to the core.

  Chase was used to being able to take any woman home that he wanted, but once again, he felt that there was something different with this one. This one touched him in ways he’d not known before.

  Their kiss grew with passion until the limo pulled to a stop too soon. The two of them broke apart, chests heaving. Chase looked at her, mesmerized by her swollen lips and pink cheeks. They sat for a moment in silence, the air thick with obvious desire.

  “Would…would you like to come in?” Penny said at last. She looked at him with bright eyes and a hesitant smile, and Chase grinned.

  “I’d like that,” he said. His heart was pounding in his chest as he followed her up to the apartment.

  As soon as they were inside, he barely gave her time to put her purse down before taking her in his arms. Hungrily, he pressed his lips to her neck. She closed her eyes and leaned her neck to the side, allowing him better access. He trailed kisses down her neck and ran his hands over her body, unable to keep them off her. He couldn’t believe how hot she was under his touch. Her tits were large and soft, and once he got her clothes off completely, he knew the rest of her would be perfect in every way.

  She turned and wrapped her arms around his neck, clasping her hands behind him. Their lips met again, and they shared another passionate kiss before Chase lifted her from the floor and carried her to the bedroom. She was wearing her short work dress, so Chase could feel her bare ass as he held her.

  He felt a thrill when he saw her round ass and a peek of her red thong in the reflection of the mirror as he set her down on the bed and settled himself on top of her with just inches between them. They were tearing at each other’s clothing in seconds, pulling each article free and tossing them to the side and enjoying each other’s naked bodies.

  Chase took himself out of his pants, teasing the lips of her pussy with his enormous cock.

  “I need you,” Penny whispered.

  He leaned down but whispered back, “Not yet, love.”

  Instead of his cock, he drew his fingers along her clit, eliciting a shiver from her. Without preamble, he inserted two of his fingers into her, causing her to moan with pleasure. He hooked his fingers inside of her while using his thumb to rub her sensitive clit.

  “God, that feels so good,” she mumbled through her moans.

  Seeing the beautiful woman naked and calling out his name, he couldn’t wait any longer. Chase removed his wet fingers, and without another second, he pushed himself into her, moaning at how tight she was around him. He couldn’t remember the last time having sex with someone felt so good, and he wanted to pleasure her even more than he wanted to be pleasured himself.

  Slowly, he drew his cock out of her, leaving just the tip in place before shoving himself back in, moving with a confidence that she clearly loved. Faster and faster he pumped into her, her moans rising with each new thrust. She suddenly wrapped herself around him once more, arching herself into him with a newfound grip.

  She dragged her nails down his back and gasped, “I’m coming! I’m coming!”

  It was all the encouragement Chase needed. After thrusting into her a few more times, he knew he was on the very brink of coming as well. He grabbed her hands, pinning her down to the bed beneath him. Then, with two more thrusts, he felt the climax overtake him as he emptied himself deep inside her pussy.

  She moaned and writhed on the bed under his grip, clearly enjoying every second of their coupling. Once the last wave of pleasure washed over him, Chase leaned down on the bed, holding her beneath him while still inside her. He was starting to grow soft, but he didn’t want to pull out of her.

  He didn’t want to feel her leave him. There was something so perfect about having the tight lips of her pussy around his cock, he could stay like that for the rest of the night. But he knew that he had to get going, and he couldn’t take up more of her time.

  Pressing her lips firmly against hers, he pulled back, looking deep into eyes and holding her gaze. “Thank you for such a wonderful night.”

  “Thank you,” she breathed in reply. They shared another kiss before he pulled out of her and got off the bed. He wanted to stay, but he knew he couldn’t.

  His ride was waiting for him in the parking lot below, and they both had busy days the next morning. It was a night out of a fantasy, and Chase was happy that he got to share it with her. He hoped it wouldn’t
be the last the two of them got to see each other.

  In fact, he vowed to himself that it wasn’t going to be.

  He would see her again. He had to.

  Chapter 12

  Only three days had passed before Chase called her, asking her out on a date—a proper one, he had clarified. Despite their intimate night together, she was still a bit uncertain about him. Against her better judgment, she agreed to a date as long as it was casual.

  At first, he wanted to take her out to a Michelin star restaurant, but she immediately shot down that idea. She didn’t want to do the whole small talk, fancy dinner thing. A small carnival was in town that week, so she suggested they go to that. A part of her chose it knowing that he would be out of his comfort zone. What millionaire playboy would be a frequent carnival goer? At first, he was hesitant, a reaction she had expected. But then she found out the reason for his hesitance. Apparently, he had never been to one before, which made Penny wonder if he had a childhood at all. She hadn’t thought that he had never gone at all, but a wicked part of her was excited to see Chase in her territory, so to speak.

  Chase picked her up, and during the car ride, despite her nerves, she found that they were able to carry conversation the whole way there.

  Why was she nervous, anyway? Oh, yeah. Because he was hot as hell and the most charming man she had ever met. And he had given her the best sex she had ever had. She tried not to think about that, or it would make her even more nervous.

  She gazed at his form, taking in the sight of him in casual clothes as they stood in line for tickets. It was the first time he wasn’t wearing a tailored suit in front of her. Today he was dressed in slim-fit black jeans, dark brown desert boots, a plain tee, and a light bomber jacket. Of course, his thick brown hair was perfectly coiffed in a clean, yet messy look. She glanced down, feeling slightly self-conscious at her plain outfit. Were her boobs sticking out too much? Did her hair get frizzy in the car? Ugh. She needed to stop or she wouldn’t last the night.

  “Oh, my God, Chase,” she said, staring at the hundred-dollar bills in his hand. “Are you trying to get tickets to a Beyoncé concert or a carnival?”

  Chase’s cheeks flushed pink. “I don’t know how many tickets each ride or game requires,” he said, slightly defensive.

  Penny shook her head in amusement, taking a fifty-dollar bill from his hand. “This should be plenty,” she said with a laugh.

  “Well, if you need more, you know I’ve got enough,” he told her with an easy smile. Penny fought the urge to roll her eyes. He was so sweet, but at the same time he could be such a show-off. Honestly, he was so rich he probably didn’t even realize he was showing off.

  As they inched forward in line, they looked around at the crowds. There were dozens of families walking around with funnel cake and balloon animals. There were also couples on dates, just like them. She looked up at him with a fond smile—that was, until she saw where he set his gaze. His eyes were trailing after a woman who clearly forgot the top half of her shirt; her breasts were nearly spilling out of her piece of fabric of a shirt.

  Penny fought the urge to snap her fingers in front of his face, but because their date had just begun, she stamped down her annoyance. Men.

  Once they got their tickets, they walked around, playing carnival games. They played each game at least once, though steered clear of the ring toss. That game came with a goldfish as a prize, which they both agreed would be a bad idea. Neither of them had the time nor desire to take care of a fish.

  “How are you so bad at this?” Chase said, laughing as Penny tried to throw softballs into barrels. “I thought you went to carnivals all the time when you were younger.”

  Penny huffed, irritated. “Key word is ‘younger.’ It’s been ages since I’ve played! Let’s see you try!” She shoved the balls into his hands and crossed her arms.

  Chase raised his eyebrows in amusement. “Competitive, huh? Didn’t know that about you. I’ll try not to beat you too hard, then.” He laughed as she shoved his arm.

  Within seconds, Chase had tossed all three balls in the barrel with ease. He gave her a triumphant grin. “And that, milady, is how it’s done.”

  “Double or nothing and you get this one over here,” the booth owner told Chase, pointing at a large stuffed Tweety Bird. It was quite tacky, but it was the largest prize in the booth.

  “Hand them over,” Chase said immediately.

  “Are you sure?” Penny asked doubtfully. “Why don’t you just go with the little rabbit over there? It’s cute.”

  Chase looked at her, his face completely serious. “Go big or go home, Connor. It’s Tweety Bird or nothing.”

  Penny burst out laughing, shaking her head. To her surprise, he effortlessly tossed all three balls into the barrel once again. Chase let out a whoop of victory as the booth owner handed him the huge stuffed animal.

  “For you,” Chase said, presenting her with the prize in a grand gesture.

  Penny placed a hand over her heart in mock surprise. “I’m so flattered! This is just the most beautiful thing anyone’s ever given me!”

  “You’re welcome,” he said graciously. “If I hadn’t won that, I would’ve just bought it for you. I would’ve bought you all the prizes here.”

  Penny looked up at him, expecting it to be a joke, but his face showed no signs of humor. “Let’s go on the ferris wheel,” she said, changing the topic. “I know it’s super cliché, but you’ve never been, right?”

  “This would be my first,” Chase confirmed with a smile. “Let’s go.”

  Chapter 13

  Chase stepped onto the ferris wheel after Penny, grabbing the bars as it shook slightly. “You sure this is safe?” he asked uncertainly. “This thing looks pretty old.”

  “That’s what gives it its charm,” she said with a cheeky smile. “Come on, you big baby. It’s romantic.”

  She wanted romance, huh? That could be arranged.

  “So,” Penny said once the ferris wheel started to slowly creep up. She seemed hesitant.

  “What’s up?” he asked, concerned.

  “You know,” she said tentatively, “you don’t need to impress me with money or anything.”

  “I don’t remember any woman not liking money,” he said with shrug.

  “It’s not that I don’t like it,” she said. “It’s just…I’m here for you, not the money. Just to be clear.”

  Interesting. Usually when he went out with a woman, he would charm her with extravagance and glamour. What did this girl want, then?

  “It’s okay to have a little fun with the money you’ve got,” he reasoned. “I like spending it on my interests.” One of them being her.

  “I get it, but, I don’t know—Chase, you can’t possibly be this flashy all the time, and just so…rich.”

  “So, you don’t like it?” Chase asked, his eyebrows raised. What would it take to impress her, then? This woman was really making him work for it, but he just had to find out.

  Penny sighed. “You can just be yourself. Don’t try so hard, you know?”

  “Okay, fine,” Chase said, words tumbling out of his mouth as he finally lost his cool exterior. “I’m only trying so hard because I usually don’t have to. But you make me want to—need to—impress you, and I don’t even know why!” He paused. “Fuck, I obviously know why. I really like you, Penny. I mean it. I find myself wanting to spend more and more time with you.”

  “Oh,” Penny breathed quietly, clearly not expecting such truthful words. She gave him a small smile and laced their fingers together. “I like you too, Chase.”

  Chase let out a long breath and relaxed, kissing her hair and leaning back in the seat. “I’m glad. I really hope you’re having a good time, even though you’re here with a complete carnival newbie.”

  Penny laughed, but suddenly, she couldn’t make eye contact with him.

  “What’s wrong?” Chase asked. His stomach dropped. Did she find another flaw in him already?

  “W
ell,” Penny said uneasily. She sighed and looked at him with fierce eyes. “I honestly hope you don’t think that I didn’t see you shamelessly staring at that girl’s boobs when we were in line. I know you’re a guy and that’s all guys see, but really?”

  Chase frowned, thinking back. What girl? He didn’t even remember looking at any girl’s breasts. Well, he did do it a lot, so maybe it was just an automatic reaction now. He was ready to apologize when he figured it out and burst out laughing.

  “What?” she asked, annoyed.

  “You mean the girl with that huge stuffed owl?” he asked through his laughter. “That’s who you’re talking about?”

  Penny paused, clearly in thought. “She did have a prize with her, yeah, that’s the one.”

  Chase gave her a pointed look. “Actually, I was looking at her owl with envy. I was thinking that I’d win you a bigger one than hers. And I did, as tacky as it is.”

  Penny’s eyes widened. “Oh,” she mouthed silently in surprise and embarrassment. “Oh, my God, I’m so sorry. I feel so stupid.”

  Chase laughed again, squeezing her hand. “No worries. I’m used to unwarranted accusations.”

  Penny hit his arm playfully. “I’m sorry! This is now my favorite doll,” she told him, hugging the Tweety Bird plush with one arm. “I love it.”

  “Yeah, you better!” he said jokingly. “It almost cost me the possibility of a next date! Speaking of, there will be a next date, right? You sort of have to now that you falsely accused me of eye-fucking a girl’s breasts.”

  “We haven’t even finished our first one yet!” Penny said with a laugh.

  “I know,” Chase said, “but I’m already looking forward to the next.”

  Penny blushed, and instead of answering, she said fondly, “You’re a lot different than I expected, Chase Ellis.”

  “What do you mean?” he asked, raising his eyebrows.

  “You’re just so likable,” she said. “I’m comfortable with you. You’re less suave than you make yourself out to be.”
