"$500." I say.
"Wow, that's a lot of money."
"I would've given him $10,000." I grin at her. "But he doesn't know that."
"You would've given him $10,000 just to get in here tonight?"
"I mean, I do want to sleep with you after all," I say, and she bursts out laughing.
"Very funny."
"What? Maybe it's the truth."
"You just want to speak to Whittaker Matlock so you can get his business."
"That is true, but there may be other perks to the evening."
"Really, Kingston?"
"What? I'm just being honest."
"Come on. Where do we go from here?" she asks as we look down the dark corridor.
"I think that we continue down this path and see where we end up."
"I hope this club isn't creepy," she says, looking up at me nervously.
"What do you mean?"
"I hope there aren't naked women dancing around."
I'm about to make a joke, but I can tell by the concern in her eyes that she's serious.
"Hey, if anything about this makes you uncomfortable, we'll leave."
"What?” She sounds surprised again.
"If anything?—"
"No, I heard you," she says, cutting me off. "But really? You would leave?"
"Yes, of course I want to make a connection with Whittaker, and of course he's a very important potential client for the company. However, I do care about your safety and how you feel, and if you're not comfortable, we will leave."
"Oh, wow. Thank you. I didn't expect that you would say that."
"I'm not a jerk all of the time."
"Just some of the time, huh?" she says with a laugh, and I chuckle.
I grab her hand again and we continue walking down the corridor.
The door opens as if by magic and a pretty woman in a purple dress smiles at me. She has white-blonde hair and the most sparkling blue eyes I've ever seen in my life.
"Welcome to Club Z," she says in a Russian accent. "This is your first time?"
"Yes, it is. Both of our first times." I nod over to Skye.
The blonde looks at her and then back at me.
