In the bedroom, I crawled across the luxurious extra-large king-sized bed.
“Oh my God, this is so comfortable. I’m going to sleep like a baby.” I sprawled out on my back.
“Hate to break the news to you, sweetheart, but you won’t be getting much sleep.”
“Okay.” I grinned as I propped myself up on my elbows.
He gave me a smile and then looked at his watch. Stepping towards the bed, he leaned over and kissed me.
“As much as I want to fuck you in this bed, right now, I have that meeting to get to. I shouldn’t be more than a couple of hours. You can stay here in the room or go check out the hotel, but whatever you do, don’t leave. I don’t want you wandering around Vegas by yourself. Deal?”
“Deal.”
“There will be plenty of time for everything else over the next couple of days,” he growled.
Standing up, he pulled a money clip from his pocket that held a ridiculous wad of cash.
“Here. Take this in case you want to go down to the casino. They have some nice slot machines.”
“You don’t have to give me money. I have my own.”
“Take it, Chloe.” He arched his brow.
“If you insist.” I smiled as I took it from him.
Kissing me one last time, he walked out and went to his meeting. I’d never been in such a luxurious place in my entire life. The entire suite was simply breathtaking. The marble bathroom had an oval-shaped jet tub and an enormous glass-encased separate shower. There was a media room off the living area, which featured a built-in wall HD TV and a cream-colored sectional that surrounded the room.
Holding the money that Sebastian gave me in my hand, I counted it.
“Holy mother of pearl,” I said out load. He had given me a thousand dollars.
Making my way down to the casino, I took a seat at the blackjack table. As I was sitting there with a crowd gathered around me, I felt a tap on my shoulder. When I turned my head, I saw Sebastian standing there.
“Hey. Is your meeting over already?”
“Already? It’s been four hours. I sent you numerous text messages and you didn’t respond,” he spoke with a hint of anger.
“Wow. Really? I’ve been sitting here for four hours?” I bit down on my bottom lip. “This is my last hand.”
“What the hell, Chloe? How much did you win?”
“I don’t know.” I shrugged as the dealer dealt the final card and I won. “Woohoo!” I held my hands up in the air. “Thanks, Chuck. It’s been fun, but I have to go.”
“Congratulations, Chloe.” He smiled.
I gathered up all my chips, put them in a large cup, and handed it to Sebastian.
“Here you go.” I grinned.
“What are you doing?” He looked down at the chips.
“It’s yours. You can thank me later.” I patted his chest and started to walk away.
“Hold on a second. If I’m seeing these chips right, there has to be over five thousand dollars here.”
“Give or take a couple of hundred.”
“How the hell did you win this?”
