FREE DIVERS TRAIN THEIR HEARTS TO SLOW TO A MERE ELEVEN BEATS
per minute. I learned that from some television documentary and was
fascinated. If only I’d been interested enough to remember how they
acquired that kind of control.
My heart thudded with such ferocity that I was certain it would crack a
rib.
That was what I got for voluntarily returning to the Olympus Club—the
elusive playground of the city’s most wealthy and powerful. My sprinting
heart rate wasn’t a result of excitement, however. I knew all too well that
wealthy and powerful were just polite ways of saying entitled, hedonistic
assholes who didn’t care who they trampled to get what they wanted.
I would know. I was born into that world.
General knowledge of the Olympus Club was extremely limited outside
of the most elite circles. And within those groups, membership was highly
coveted. People would do almost anything to get inside these solid
mahogany doors—a fact I wished I didn’t know so well.
I’d been lucky enough to go as a guest several times now with the man
I’d been seeing for the past couple of months. Lawrence Wellington—
shipping mogul and one of the city’s most eligible mature bachelors. He
had a son not much younger than me, but I’d never met him. Fortunately,
Lawrence didn’t exactly look his age. He still had plenty of dark hair with a
touch of silver at his temples and kept himself fit with regular exercise.
Lawrence was taking our budding relationship surprisingly slow. I
wasn’t entirely sure if it was out of caution or an innate indifference to
anything but the acquisition of power. Not that he needed more. The stuff
radiated off him like the dirt cloud around that Pig-Pen character in the
Peanuts cartoons. Everyone around him seemed to respond as though that
aura of power scrambled their brains, making them prattle inanely or
shower him with compliments.
Knowing he was used to such lavish attention, I wasn’t sure he’d give
me a second look when I approached him. I went with a more aloof
approach, and it worked. That and my often coveted genetics—blond hair,
blue eyes, full lips and a statuesque frame of long legs and a large chest. All
of it natural. A gift and a curse. All I had to do was walk into a room for all
eyes to be drawn my way. I’d prefer to be invisible, but we didn’t choose
our genetics. And I couldn’t totally complain. My looks had benefited me
almost as much as they’d hindered me.
Tonight, I was using them to my full advantage. Scarlet-red dress
hugging my body, the back open nearly down to my ass. The cut had to be
perfectly tailored for the dress to stay on. I’d pinned my hair up in a stylish
pile of curls to expose my neck and accentuate the dip of the dress.
In my experience, men loved the sight of a woman’s neck. Delicacy and
vulnerability were always attractive to predators. In this instance, I was
happy to be the prey.
