“Trenton?” Anna gasped in surprise at seeing Devin’s friend and co-worker standing in her doorway. “Wh-what are you doing here?”

Trenton gave her a bright smile. “Devin said I could... visit you.” He cocked his head. “Are you busy?”

“I...” Anna shook her head and stepped backward. “No. Come on in.”

Trenton closed the door and looked her over, gray eyes smiling. He reached for her and pulled her close, kissing her deeply. “Where’s your bedroom?” he asked in a husky voice.

Anna pointed to the second bedroom and Trenton walked her backward into the room, undressing her on the way.

Chapter 74

“Damn, Anna,” Seth murmured against Anna’s neck as they lay in her bed together Thursday morning. “Call me anytime you’re bored. I’m happy to keep you company anytime.”

Anna giggled and turned to face Seth. “I’ll keep that in mind.” She stretched her arms over her head and smiled. Two nights in a row of nice men. Trenton, the night before, had been a pleasant surprise. Even though he was a close friend of Devin’s, Trenton was not in the least bit mean or cruel. She would welcome him into her apartment anytime.

Last night, Anna had been lonely. She’d briefly thought about calling Aaron, but it hurt too much to see him. She needed someone who would distract her from her sad thoughts, and Aaron was part of those thoughts. Seth came to mind, and when she called him, he’d happily obliged. As much as she was afraid of Alex, she really liked Seth. Alex had said it was okay for her to spend time with him and Seth was a very good lover.

He reached up to caress Anna’s breast and she let out a sigh. “You better keep it in mind.” He grinned, then glanced at his watch. “I need to get going, though.”

Anna covered the hand resting on her breast and leaned forward to kiss him. “Thank you for keeping me company.”

Seth grinned. “Anytime.” He sat up and Anna caught sight of the tattoo of Alex’s family crest on his right forearm. She had asked him about it the night before, but he shrugged off her question. He had been marked by Alex, just like her. Anna was glad Alex hadn’t tattooed her, though.

He dressed and then leaned down to kiss her again. “Call me.”

Anna nodded. “Definitely.”

Later that evening, Anna walked into a small, dark restaurant with Devin, and they were led to a table where the mayor waited for them. Devin had called earlier in the day, telling Anna he needed her for a last-minute dinner meeting.

“Anna, this is Mayor George Burt. George, this is Anna.”

The mayor stood and gave her a smile as he dragged his eyes up and down her body. Devin had told her to dress in something sexy, so she wore a figure-hugging black lace dress. It had a high neckline and hit mid-thigh, but the back was very low.

The mayor looked at Devin with a cocked brow. “You think a pretty face is going to change my mind, Devin?”

“You never know, George.” Devin flashed his charming smile as he and Anna settled into the leather booth, Anna between the two men.

Devin and the mayor engaged in small talk during cocktails, while Anna studied and subtly flirted with the mayor. She used the skills taught by Jack to gain George’s attention, and soon she’d distracted the mayor’s attention away from Devin. Anna glanced at Devin, worried that he would be angry, but Devin gave her a knowing nod and an encouraging smile. George seemed quite taken with her, which was the whole point of her attendance at the meeting.

Devin had said that this was the type of place that overt sexual touch was acceptable, just no outright sex. It was a private restaurant, and negotiation and manipulation were common. Anna ran her hand up and down the mayor’s thigh after they finished eating while the mayor and Devin discussed some sort of budget matter.

Her hand moved higher and higher with each slow brush, eventually coming to brush his hard cock. The mayor jumped and she played the innocent card, blushing and moving her hand away quickly. He took her hand back and placed it on his crotch. She massaged him over his dress pants, biting her lower lip and watching him subtly.

“Don’t you want to help Devin out, George?” she whispered in his ear, careful to keep her voice breathy. She leaned back and saw his eyes glaze over, and he nodded.

Devin spoke, and she repeated his words to the mayor. The mayor seemed happy to do whatever she asked him to do. She slipped under the table and rewarded him with a blowjob, after which he and Devin shook hands, having come to an agreement. In Devin’s favor, of course.

Chapter 75

Friday night, Anna sat between Trenton’s feet with his cock in her mouth. One of his hands rested on her head and he moaned deeply as she sucked on him. “Maki has been asking when we’re going to get together, Devin,” Trenton said in a strained voice as Anna swallowed him. “Fuck, sweetheart. I love your mouth.”

Devin chuckled. “It is a rather delightful mouth, isn’t it? I’d love to take the credit for it, but I mustn’t upset my best trainer or he’ll stop doing such a good job for me.”

Jack laughed. “Why would I stop when I enjoy the job so much?”

The three men laughed. Devin was in a good mood this evening and Anna was grateful.

“What about tomorrow night, Trenton?” Devin asked.
