Chapter 20
"Okay," I whisper, standing and accepting the offer to run off with a complete stranger.
Landon takes me to the back of the bar, punching the button on the elevator. I risk looking at him, finding him gazing at me from the corner of his eye. Tingles course through my body like a sea of ecstasy when our eyes catch. A twinge in my chest makes it difficult to breathe, causing me to draw in a slow breath. This man affects me on levels I can't understand.
The elevator dings, catching our attention. Landon hits the highest floor number once we're inside, and rests against the wall, still staring at me hungrily. The sexual tension is so thick I could cut it with a knife.
"So, why were you with that boy?" Landon asks, his tone serious as he emphasizes the word ‘boy'. I laugh, feeling giddy from the alcohol.
"I told you, ‘cause I was his whore."
