Tiko cocked his head and patted Kara’s arm. “Are you sure you don’t want to start a legit business instead? Why all this illegal stuff?”

“People should be able to do what they want with their bodies and their money. What’s wrong with offering a service they want?”

“What about a legal casino?” Tiko asked.

“It doesn’t attract the highest rollers.”

“You know I don’t care about the morality piece. It’s just that this underground business means dealing with shady people like Gio.”

Kara laughed out loud and the pedicurists both looked up.

“He’s not shady. Gio is who he is. And I’m preparing a proposal to present to him. A partnership of sorts.”

Tiko sighed and finished his drink in one gulp. “I don’t think I like the sound of this.”

“Look at it this way, if it works out for me, you never have to worry about some asshole harassing you at the club. Ever again,” Kara murmured.

“If Ray finds out I encouraged you about this, he’ll make me sleep on the sofa for the rest of our lives.” Tiko paused and rolled his eyes. “Tell me more about this proposal.”

Kara outlined her idea and how to approach Gio. After another round of mimosas, they left the spa tipsy and fucking gorgeous.

After spending an obscene amount of money on a new dress and a new suit, Kara headed home. Her phone buzzed just as she was about to enter her apartment. She smiled when she saw the message from Gio.

Who are you sending next week? I want to see her profile info now.

You just wanted an excuse to text me

Someone thinks highly of themselves

I do. You do too

I’m waiting

Her name is Natalia. Attached is her pic. She’s so good, one night won’t be enough.

No repeats.

Are you sure about that?

Fuck yes

His immediate reply had her shaking her head. He’d already broken his rule with Kara. First the blowjob, and then last night’s fucking.

Silly man.

I enjoyed the casino. I’d like to partner with you on a similar venture. Attached is my proposal. Dinner next week to discuss?

A second later, her phone rang.

“Good afternoon Mr. Ferraro,” she answered.

“I had my dick in your pussy last night, Kara. Skip the bullshit.”

“I’m reverting back to our roles. Madam and kingpin. Would you like to discuss my proposal?”

“You want to enter the casino business? With me? Why the fuck do you think I’d need a partner?”

Kara sighed. “Why don’t you read my proposal first.”
