Wilson opened the door, waited for me to precede him. I went directly to the front door and slipped out into the smaller lobby. I pressed the elevator call and the doors immediately opened. Once inside I pressed my key card to the panel and hit the button for the garage.
On the long ride down, my mind whirled.
Wilson had to be overreacting. Martin Jackson was nothing more than a sleazy guy who made himself feel important by surrounding himself with rich men and beautiful women.
But there was this small nagging voice in the back of my mind that I couldn’t get rid of. Some of those women were young, very young, and not all of them spoke English well.
What if Wilson was right and Martin was into more than loose women? And that innocent-looking blonde had caught his attention immediately. She didn’t belong in the den of debauchery. Was that why Wilson had been watching her, because he saw it, too? That poor woman was going to get chewed up and spit out or worse—hurt.
Damn.
I needed to warn Wilson and ask him to get her out of there.
I pulled out my phone and found his contact.
He answered on the second ring.
“What’s wrong?”
“That blonde—”
“It’s under control.”
Okay, that was good.
“Okay.”
“I’ll call you when I’m done,” he reminded me.
My stomach did a weird somersault that had nothing to do with him calling me later.
“Princess?” he growled.
“Yeah?”
“It’s gonna make me seriously fucking angry if we have to have this discussion again.”
Damn him for reading my mind.
“So be angry,” I snapped. “It’s not me settling in for a night with naked men walking around looking to fuck me.”
“That just earned you a spanking.”
No, it earned me a thrill of excitement at the thought of Wilson’s hand on my ass.
“Whatever.”
I disconnected and scanned the parking garage.
Double damn him for making me paranoid.

I pocketed my phone, did another scan of the room, and located Catarina sitting stiffly next to Martin.
She played the part well. She looked scared and curious. Every so often her gaze skidded around the room before it went back to Martin, with pink tinging her cheeks. I had no idea how she made herself blush on command but it was damn impressive.
I’d just settled onto a stool at the bar, specifically located with a perfect view of the indoor pool that had no shortage of beautiful women lounging around it. Their demeanor open, flirtatious grins that stated plain they were up for anything. These were not the women who would be up for auction.
