Julian It was a wonder the cops didn't pull me over before I reached the hotel. Still in a sour mood, I breezed through the lobby, forcing out a smile for the front desk clerk. The woman had been eye-f*cking me since the night I checked in. If I hadn't met Ruby that night, maybe the clerk would have ended up in my room. She checked all the right boxes physically and personality-wise. Sultry, beautiful, with flawless brown skin, and an incredible body. Plus, she'd flirted and matched me wit for wit during check-in. I'd definitely have a good time with her. My steps slowed, and I turned to give the woman a second look. She glanced up from her computer screen, realized I was staring at her and her scarlet lips stretched into a smile. She gave me a wink and that small action said a lot.
