The Stopover (The Miles High Club #1) - T L Swan Page 0,15
sex-in-a-plane club . . . he meant women who had slept with him.
Miles . . . he’s the Miles . . . and there’s a club?
Damn it, the hottest sex of my life was just an initiation into some sleazy bedpost club.
For the past twelve months, the night that we spent together was something special that I held dear. He awakened something inside me that I didn’t even know existed, and now I find out that I’m one of many. My heart drops in disappointment, and I clench my jaw to stop myself from lashing out to try to hurt him back.
Bastard.
I’ve got to get out of here before I get myself fired on my first day.
“Nice to see you again.” I fake a smile, and with my heart beating hard in my chest, I turn and walk out of his office and close the door behind me.
“All done?” Lindsey smiles.
“Yes.” I nod.
We walk out through reception and into the elevator and begin to go back down to my level. “Don’t feel rattled,” Lindsey says softly.
I frown over at her in question.
“He’s very abrasive and not good with people, but his mind is beyond incredible.”
Like his dick.
“Oh, okay,” I reply as I stare at the ground. “Good to know.”
“Did he say anything to you?”
“No,” I lie. “Just polite chitchat.”
She smiles. “You should feel very privileged. Jameson Miles doesn’t make polite chitchat with anyone.”
“Oh.” I frown. The door opens, and I scurry out to evade this conversation. “Thank you so much for showing me around.”
“You’re welcome, and if you have any human resource issues, please call me immediately.”
“I will.” I shake her hand. Does being initiated into the Miles dick-riding club classify as a human resource issue? “Thank you so much.” I take off in the direction of my desk, and I discreetly grab my phone from my drawer. “Back in a moment.” I head to the bathroom and bang the stall door open and lock it. Then in the privacy of the bathroom, I type into Google: Jameson Miles.
I close my eyes as I wait for the information to load. My heart is hammering in my chest. Please don’t be married . . . please don’t be married.
I’ve beat myself up over this for the last year, and it’s played on my mind as to why he didn’t even pretend to want my number. I felt like we had a connection, but there was something he didn’t tell me. And for some reason, afterward, I got the feeling he was married . . . or in a relationship.
And that makes me a dirty ho. I’ve never been with a person who is in a committed relationship to someone else, and women who knowingly do that make me sick.
If I had known how much it was going to play on my mind, I wouldn’t have gone near him that night.
