“Well…I’ve been doing a little freelance call girl stuff in the evenings.” “You know just doing something to keep me busy…I didn’t want to be in a relationship so I thought this was a great way to get laid and to make some money as well, anyway. I was at a corporate convention about four years ago and that is when I first met Travis St. Croix.” “One of the nights there they hosted a masquerade party.” “I was there and Travis was after me the whole night, but he didn’t know it was me because we were wearing costumes and mask.” “Well I guess I had too much to drink and I ended up having sex with him.” “Anyway he tracked me down and put me on this assignment thinking that he could get with me again.” “I told him that he had never been with me and that it was someone else.” “So…I had my friend, Whitney to come down here to sleep with him, making him think it was me so I could walk in, catch them and then he would think that I really was not the one who slept with him that night.” “Now she’s dead and it’s my fault!” “He killed her and he’ll probably get away with it!” “I don’t understand why he wants to make me the scapegoat for his embezzlement scam…maybe he’s so upset with me about not admitting that I slept with him that he was trying to get revenge!”
Lady Davenport sighed as she replied, “If he was just trying to get revenge…I don’t think he would be setting you up to fall that hard.” “You’re right…there is something deeper than just getting you back for lying!”
India gazed at her as she responded, “I just got a strange message on my phone from Travis…it was weird!”
“What did he say?”
She sighed as she replied, “India…it’s me…Travis…were being setup.” “I need to talk to you as soon as possible…please…I know I’ve been an asshole to you but please…I really need to talk to you…I swear I didn’t kill her…”
Lady Davenport signaled the server to bring more drinks as she replied, “He sounds like his backed into a corner…I’d watch him…I know he was involved in setting you up…but I’ll check further…maybe his plan failed and now he needs to fix it by adding you as a murderer!” “We’ll get to the bottom of this!”

Meanwhile across the island, Danika was in the bathroom as she overheard Travis leaving his message on India’s answering service. She sighed as she thought, “This dirty motherfucker is still trying to help her ass…well I think it’s time to take this to another level!”
She sauntered out of the bathroom as she glanced over at him acting a little nervous. She smiled as she asked, “What’s going on...you look a little flustered…are you alright?”
He smiled slightly as he replied, “Yeah…yeah, I’m fine!”
She smiled as she strolled over toward the bar and said, “Do you want another drink…you need to relax!”
He grinned as he replied, “Yeah…I’ll take another drink…I just don’t know how all of this just came up!” “Who would kill, Whitney?” “She wasn’t part of this shit!”
She poured the drinks as she responded, “Well…so far they think it was a tourist robbery gone wrong…the police believe that…so don’t worry.” “They’ll catch the murderer who did this and we’ll be home in the States before you know it.” “So, Travis…I’ve got a question for you…what about us?”
He gazed at her flabbergasted as he replied, “Us…what do you mean us?” “What, we did was just…something that just happened.” “Wait…you didn’t think that us fucking was gonna change things between us…I mean…I look at you differently than before but there is no us, Danika!” “Think of it as just a way to let off some stress.”
She put the drinks down on the table, sat down next to him as she replied, “So you think that I’m some horny ass bitch who just fucks anybody so they can relief some fuckin’ stress?”
He smiled as he replied, “Hey…wait a minute why are you getting hostile…it was just a booty call, a jump off situation, or a quickie if you will.” I thought we were consenting adults who both needed to relieve some tension and we did…you was looking for more than that?”
She gazed at him with an angry expression as she replied, “So you think that I don’t have any feelings…you think that I’d just fuck, anybody?”
