The Stopover (The Miles High Club 1)

“He stayed behind?”

I scrunch my face up tight. Damn it. Why did I say that? “Yes.”

“When you see him, I want you to do something for me.”

“What’s that?”

“Ask him if he feels like he might die if he doesn’t get to touch you again.”

I frown. “Why would I ask him that?” I whisper.

“Because there’s another man who does.” The phone clicks as he hangs up.

I frown as I stare at the phone in my hand as I feel tingles all the way to my toes.

Holy fucking shit.

I put my hand over my mouth; I can’t believe this.

I stumble back into the bar to find my two friends bouncing in their chairs as they wait for my return. “What happened?” they all but scream.

I slump and put my hands in my hair. “He wanted me to go over to his place and put him out of his misery.”

“Holy fucking shit,” Aaron cries. “Can I have your autograph?”

“Are you going?” Molly stammers. “Please tell me you’re going.”

I shake my head. “No.” I think for a moment. “He told me to ask my boyfriend if he felt like he would die if he didn’t get to touch me again.”

They frown as they listen.

“Because there is another man who does.”

“What?” Molly screeches. “Oh holy hell, we need tequila.” She gets up and disappears to the bar.

“He asked you to his place?” Aaron squeaks.

I nod.

“Do you know where he lives?”

“No.”

“Park Avenue, overlooking Central Park.”

“How do you know that?”

“Google. He used to live in the One57 Billionaire Building, but he moved out of there and into a building on Park Avenue. His apartment is worth something like fifty million.”

“Fifty million,” I gasp. “Are you serious? How could anything be worth fifty million dollars? That’s just ridiculous.”

He shrugs. “Beats me. Must have gold toilets or something.”

I giggle as I get a vision of someone sitting on a gold toilet.

Molly sits back in her seat and hands me a shot of tequila. “Drink this, and then go and fuck him stupid.”
