Buried Secrets (SIN CITY HEAT SERIES) by SK Read Free Book Online Page A

righteous and ready. They had brought stacks of bills, were horny as hell, and ready to be entertained by some certified stallions.
         On cue, a knock at the door had them quickly on the edge of their seats. Jerra stood in the middle of the room as Keisha went to the door.
      “Ok, ladies. Are you ready for the main event?”
      “Yeahhhhh!!!” They all screamed and clapped.
      “Alright...!Keisha - let the show begin.”
         Keisha dramatically swung the door open, and what they saw left them breathless with anticipation.  In walked four of the finest men they’d ever seen sporting tight, muscled bodies. There was a flavor for everyone’s taste: thuggish, pretty boy, and just downright nasty. Licking their tongues out at the women and blowing kisses, the men followed Jerra into one of the bedrooms to prepare for their show.
         When the final stripper walked in, Keisha’s mouth fell open. She frantically tried to catch Aleesha’s eye to warn her, but Aleesha was too busy grinning at the parade of men passing by her. Then she saw the last one and almost dropped her glass.
          It can’t be, her mind screamed.
         But it was. Pulling up the rear was none other than Marcus Bennett. When he turned his head and spotted her, Leesh was unable to move a muscle. Pausing, he slowly looked her body up and down before meeting her eyes. Aleesha felt faint when the corner of his mouth lifted in a smirk of anticipation.
     
    Chapter 5
         Aleesha closed her eyes and sent up a silent prayer: Please God. This has to be a dream.  If you make him go away, I promise I will never let anything like last night happen again...
         Holding her breath, she squinted. Marcus was still standing there staring at her. He gave her one final look and a wink before he turned to the go to the bedroom to change. Aleesha began to hyperventilate. She was vaguely aware of Keisha rushing up to her.
         “Honey, are you okay?”
         "Keisha..." Leesh barely remembered how to breathe as a look of outright horror came over her face.
         "Leesh, I'm sorry, I had no idea..."
         By now, Jerra had come rushing back in the room. She’d also recognized the last stripper and was trying to get to Aleesha as quickly as she could.
         "Leesh…” She grabbed Aleesha’s hand.
         Noticing the looks of deep concern on her two friend’s faces, Aleesha finally whispered in a hushed tone. "Why didn’t you tell me he was one of the strippers?! You said you personally chose them from pictures and videos, so you had to have known who he was when you saw me with him last night...."
      "No, sweetie. He wasn't one of the original guys we hired. You know we’d never do anything like this to you." Jerra stood practically wringing her hands.
         "He must be a substitute or something," Keisha said. "Do you want me to tell him to leave?" Under her breath she muttered, "He is hawt, though."
         Glaring at her, Jerra pulled Leesha to the kitchen. "Leesh, it's not a problem at all to ask him to leave if you're uncomfortable. Technically, they're breaking the contract anyway. We specifically chose four particular men....."
         Aleesha interrupted Jerra before she completely went into lawyer mode, breach of contracts, and such.  "No. No, Jerra. I don't want to make a scene. It's...it’s okay. I mean we'll be gone tomorrow anyway. Let's just continue to have a good time. I'm not going to let him put a damper on my party."  Aleesha tried to muster a convincing smile. Jerra and Keisha had worked hard to make everything perfect and she didn’t want to ruin the evening.
         "Well, okay, if you're sure...?"
         "I'm sure. Come on, let's get this show on the road," she said, grabbing Jerra's hand and heading back to the party. With every step, she tried to convince herself that she believed the words she’d just told Jerra, but somehow – she knew she didn’t.
