It was our last night in Vegas. I hadn’t seen or spoken to Stella since our conversation yesterday. I needed time to collect my thoughts and get things in order before I became a married man for the next year. Staring at myself in the mirror as I buttoned up my shirt, I cursed my mother for doing this to me.
I met Levi in the restaurant for dinner at seven p.m. When I approached the table, I saw he was alone.
“Where’s Laurel?”
“She has a migraine. So, it’s just the two of us tonight.” He grinned.
“Good. It's not good that she has a migraine. I do hope she feels better. But it's good that it’s just the two of us. There’s something I need to tell you.”
Our waitress walked over and set a glass of bourbon down in front of me.
“I took the liberty of ordering you one.” Levi smiled.
“I appreciate it. Thanks, my friend.” I picked up the glass and brought it to my lips. “I’m getting married, and I would like you there.”
“Excuse me?” He began choking while sipping his Manhattan. “You’re really going through with it?”
“I have no choice, do I?”
“Can I safely assume it’s the hot brunette you slept with? What’s her name again?”
“Stella Harper.” I sighed.
“You said she doesn’t have a job, right?”
“No, she doesn’t. Get this. She used to be the Kensington’s nanny. Nadine fired her and then told all of Manhattan that she stole from them and wanted to sleep with Brandon.”
“Did she sleep with Brandon? It wouldn’t surprise me.”
“She said that she would never. And she didn’t steal from them either. Nadine was being Nadine,” I spoke, rolling my eyes. “Anyway, Stella has a BS in child psychology.”
“That’s weird. And she took a job as a nanny?”
“She’s finishing up her master’s and going for her doctorate.” I sipped my bourbon.
“Beautiful and smart.” Levi grinned. “You did well, my friend. When is the big day?”
“I’ll let you know when we return to New York. I have to file for the marriage license and set a date at the courthouse.”
“Uncle Ben isn’t going to be happy about this.” A smirk crossed his lips.
“Uncle Ben can kiss my ass. I only have to stay married for a year. In fact, once I take over as CEO, and the company belongs to me, I’m firing his ass.”
After we ate, we went to the casino and sat at the poker tables. It was midnight when I returned to my suite. Pulling my phone from my pocket, I sent Stella a text.
“What are you doing?”
“I just got back to my room and heading to bed.”
“You can head to my bed. See you in five.”
“See you in five.”
I smiled when I read her last text. Just because our marriage was going to be a sham, sex with her wasn’t. The night we shared was more than I’d hoped for, and I wanted a repeat.
My cock spasmed when I heard the knock on the door. I opened it and saw her standing there in one of the hotel’s robes and slippers. Instantly, my cock stood at full attention, knowing she was completely naked underneath.
