An indecent bet.
An erotic challenge...
Her watchful gaze was steady, so I had to ask, “Tell me, Ms. Crawford. Is there a point to this visit, or did you insist on meeting with me today in order to save my soul?”
“Tough to do that when you don’t have one.”
The silence that followed that statement got adrenaline coursing through me. I recognized very clearly why my heart rate was picking up speed. She’d verbally slapped me in the face and I wanted to slap her right back. I narrowed my eyes and spoke slowly. Softly. Carefully. “If you believed that, then you shouldn’t have said it. A man with no soul is capable of doing the unthinkable. Is that what you want, Ms. Crawford? Me to do the unthinkable to you?”
“Maybe…for a price.”
In order for both to win, one of them has to lose, and it's not going to be him....
