CLAUDIA SAT BEHIND the dilapidated desk in the office and perused Lucky Coalson’s application. Since he had sauntered into the casino, and her life, she’d been on pins and needles. He was handsome as sin. Every time he smiled at her, she felt herself melt. Damn him! She knew what she had to do to get out of this dive. She couldn’t afford to fall for him.
“I’ll figure a way out of this mess, and then I’ll get on with my life,” she murmured to the papers. “It’s simple. Just do your job. Do not get personally involved. Simple.”
A knock sounded on the door. Lucky poked his head in. “I’m grabbing a dog from Pink’s. You want one?”
See, right there. That was another reason why it was so hard to get the bastard out of her head. He wasn’t a typical arrogant jerk. He was actually nice. “Sure,” she murmured. “Whatever you’re having. Thanks.” She kept her gaze focused on the papers. She didn’t dare look up into those hypnotic blue eyes. She might just rip off her clothes and tell him to take her on the damn desk.
“Hey, everything ok?” Lucky walked right up to her. If she looked up, she’d be eye level with his...fuck! He had an erection.
Swallowing hard, she made her eyes move up to his face. She smirked. “Nothing for a bouncer to worry about. So how about those dogs?”
“Need some protein, do you? How do you like it?” he murmured with a grin.
Claudia had the feeling he wasn’t talking about lunch. “I like it anyway I can get it. But I like it hot, so hurry up,” she stated in a cold tone. No way was she playing sexual cat and mouse with this guy. Eyes on the prize, Claudia. Don’t get distracted.
“Sweetheart, I don’t know what I did to piss you off, but I am seriously beginning to think you don’t like me.” Lucky frowned her way. “So whatever I have done, or you imagined I have done, let’s just spit it out and get through it. We’ve got to work together here.” He sat down in the chair opposite her desk and waved at her. “Let’s hear it.”
Claudia’s eyes widened. She never imagined he would take this approach. But, he had a point. She sighed and threw the papers on the desk. “Fine. I find you a distraction. I’ll admit I’m attracted to you. What’s not to like? And your looks are distracting the female customers, what little we have. They’d rather talk to you than play. And playing means we all get fed. I’m thinking you were a bad decision.”
Lucky thought fast. He couldn’t get fired. He hadn’t gotten anything significant to hang Pye with yet, but Noah was right. It was here. “So you don’t want me to talk to the customers. Ok. I can do that. As far as the looks go, I can scowl a lot, I guess.”
“No,” she shook her head. “That won’t do. Women will start thinking you’re a Dom and that would just make matters worse.”
Lucky leaned in. “Speaking of D/s, BDSM and all manner of sexual diversions, I’ve joined a new club here. It’s called, Kink. Heard of it?”
Claudia snorted, trying to act nonchalant. Why, out of all the clubs in Vegas did he pick the one Sussex owned? “Yes, cowboy. I’ve heard of it. Gonna get your kicks at Kink, are you? Can you handle it?”
Lucky hit her with a slow grin. “Oh yeah, darlin’. You’re not the only one who knows how to scratch an itch in a variety of ways.”
Claudia lowered her lashes and pretended interest in the ledger opened on her desk, but his next words had her eyes popping up to meet his.
“Wanna come?”
Lucky laughed at her expression. “I’ll take that as a no.”
“Actually, yes I would. I’ve never been there, but I’ve heard things. We can go tomorrow after work.” This Martin Sussex, or Master X as he liked to be called, was getting harder to put off. He owned club Kink and wanted the Mississippi Flame too, but her boss wasn’t selling. If she didn’t think of something soon, he was going to want to take his pound of flesh, literally.
If he was shocked, Lucky knew better than to show it. He slapped his hands on the desk. “Good, then it’s settled. Now what about the women in the casino? I could say I’m taken, I guess.”
“No that won’t work. That just presents a challenge.”
He fixed her with a steely look. “You pretty much talk to everyone like this, don’t you? Well, problem solved. I’ll say I’m yours. No one’s going to mess with you and risk being thrown out.”
Hers. She could pretend for just a little while that her life wasn’t a total fuck up. That during work hours someone was looking out for her, taking care of her, loving her. Yes. That would be wonderful. Bad, bad idea, her conscious warned, but she wasn’t listening. For just a while, she could step outside her screwed up life and be normal.
“All right.” She heard herself say. “Let’s do it.”
Lucky grinned and stood up, walking over to where she sat behind the desk.
Spinning her around, he caged her in the chair and leaned down. “No time like the present,” he murmured. Before she could react, he reached down, scooped her out of the chair and onto the desk, scattering papers and knocking her small lamp to the floor with a crash.
“What the fuck are you doing?” she squeaked. He surrounded her with his body as his strong arms held her. His scent was a combination of fresh soap and sexy man. It made her nervous. It was too tempting. She started to protest. He silenced her with a kiss.
He had waited an entire week to taste those lips and as far as he was concerned, she had given him permission. “Seeing is believing, darling,” he murmured against her lips right before he took possession.
Her tongue dueled with his and he tasted the mint of her mouth. He framed her face with his hands as he stepped between her legs and lowered her back to the desk, completely covering her. Lucky broke off the kiss and replaced it with nibbles along her collarbone. He grinned, then did it again as she moaned.
He heard the door open and lifted his head. “Oh! I’m so...sorry. I heard a crash.” Pamela, the brunette bartender, stammered an apology and hastily closed the door. Lucky looked down at Claudia. She frowned at him.
“Get off me! What the hell?” she shoved against him. Reluctantly, Lucky lifted himself off of her, but not before noticing the outline of her nipples that were hardened against her t-shirt. He smiled and kissed a patch of belly exposed as she tried to straighten her crumpled shirt. “Off!” She shoved his head, even as she acknowledged that she wanted those lips lower. He was too easy to want between her legs.
Lucky smiled at her anger. “You wanted folks to know, darlin’. I just made it possible. Pam’s the biggest gossip you got here.”
Claudia scrambled off the desk, still rearranging her clothes. “Well, next time warn a girl, would ya? Jeez!”
Lucky towered over her. “What’s the matter, sweetie? Got you a little hot and bothered, did I?”
Claudia huffed. “Yes.” She glanced at the erection against his jeans. “Looks like I’m not the only one.” She leaned in and stroked him, squeezing his cock hard. Two could play the surprise game. “And after lunch, maybe we can finish what we started.” It was time to extend her friends-with-benefits package to include this sexy-as-sin man, even if her head disagreed with her body.
“What happened to “all for show?” he groaned. He placed his big hand over hers and rubbed himself with her hand. The woman was making him crazy.
Claudia stepped back with a sexy grin. “No reason we can’t have fun while showing them.” She winked and patted his ass. “Now, go. I’m hungry.”
Lucky practically yanked the door off the hinges in his effort to get her lunch. And he knew exactly what he wanted for dessert.

LUCKY’S PLANS FOR A little afternoon delight came crashing down when he reentered the casino with their food. Pamela was on her hands and knees trying to clean up what looked like puke and broken glass off the carpet; Charlie, the card dealer, was at the poker table, fending off advances from a blue haired old lady with too much money and not enough sense; and Claudia was once again behind the bar, trying to keep a group of college kids from getting too drunk and handsy.
Lucky stowed the food in the office and went to work. First stop – the bar. “Gentlemen, I see you share my taste for beautiful women,” he boomed as he strolled to the bar. He slid behind Claudia and wrapped his arms around her. “Unfortunately for you, I’m a possessive man.” He looked into the eyes of the young men. “Is there going to be a problem?” he growled.
The boys stammered an apology, took their drinks and started to leave as Lucky reached into his pocket. “Hey, first game’s on me.” He tossed dollar tokens onto the bar, grinning as he watched the young men snatching them up and heading for the slots.
“You do have a certain charm, cowboy,” Claudia murmured as she leaned back in his arms.
He kissed her, quick and hard, on the lips. “I’m just clearing the way for a fun filled evening, baby.”
He started around the bar, but she grabbed the back of his shirt. “What makes you think I don’t have plans?”
Lucky turned in a flash, grabbed her around the waist and slid his hand under her skirt to rub her through her panties. “I know you’ve got plans, sugar. I can feel what you’ve got in mind. It’s warm and moist.” He slipped his finger around the silken barrier to slide against her wetness. She moaned when his finger left her. He brought it to his lips. “And it tastes so sweet.”
Claudia came to her senses as Lucky stepped back. She swung an arm to slap him, but he grabbed it and pulled her close once again. “What the hell do you think you’re doing?” she hissed. Even though she was pissed, her body throbbed against him.
“I’m just keepin’ it real baby. If we give them a show every now and then, the word will spread, and pretty soon, we’ve got a casino full of gambling voyeurs,” he murmured against her skin as he nibbled on her neck. “Gotta go put out more fires.” He kissed her again, amid cheers and bar pounding, and then hopped over the bar with a grin and a bow. “Oh, and lose the panties, darlin’.”
Claudia shook her head and grinned. He definitely wasn’t boring her.

BY THE TIME LUCKY HAD helped Pam clean up the carpet, helped Charlie smooth the ruffled feathers with the older ladies, and eradicated a few minor disputes, the hot dogs were forgotten, but the feel of Claudia was still on his mind. Furtive glances her way showed him that she was in the same state of arousal. When the clock hit seven p.m., the shift changed to Pam and Simon. Lucky raced to the office and slammed the door. By the time Lucky turned the lock, Claudia was naked except for mile high red stilettos.
Lucky almost came right there on the spot.
His cock was hard and throbbing with need to crawl inside her. Two steps into the room and his shirt was off, his eyes never leaving hers.
She took an aggressive step forward as his hands found the button on his jeans but she slapped them away. “Tit for tat, cowboy.” She quickly undid the buttons. He let out a raspy breath when she grasped his cock in a firm grip. “You got a taste, now it’s my turn darlin’.”
Looking at him behind her lashes, she slowly lowered herself, spreading her knees wide so he could see what she was offering. She touched her tongue to the head of his cock and he jerked as she licked the pre-cum off. “Mmmm, tasty.” He watched as her eyes boldly scanned his face. “Let’s see if I can make you as crazy as you make me.”
Lucky moaned as she took him completely in her mouth. He felt the back of her throat and his balls drew up. She grasped them in one hand and squeezed as she swallowed and pulled at his cock with her greedy mouth. This woman was unlike anyone he had ever known. She was bold and smart, and she knew what she liked. She took what she wanted, and she wanted him. His balls drew up tight and he threaded his fingers through her silky hair, giving a little tug.
“Fuck! Baby, if you don’t want me to come in your mouth, pull back now,” he warned her, but she tightened her grip and lightly grazed her teeth down the length of his cock. That was all she had to do to send him spiraling over the edge. He grabbed her hair and fucked her mouth as semen burst from him, coating her throat. She simply swallowed and murmured her pleasure as she sucked him dry.
Lucky was breathing heavily as he finally loosened his grip on her hair. He pulled out of her mouth with a plop, his dick landing on her cheek. She looked up at him and said, “Gone crazy yet, cowboy?” Then she grabbed his ass and started to lick his balls as he felt himself start to get hard again.
Grabbing her and pulling her up, he laid her back on the desk. Placing her heels wide on the surface, she was splayed open before him. He had a perfect view of her luscious, glistening pink pearl. No doubt about it. His sugar loved to suck cock. He slid a chair forward and took a seat closer as she leaned up on her elbows with a sexy pout on her face. “What are you doing? I want you to fuck me now.”
“Oh baby, we will get to that,” he whispered as he traced a finger around her slit, making her fall back against the desk. She was pink and warm, just beautiful. “But I missed lunch and I’m a hungry man.” He leaned forward and touched his nose to her clit. She felt his breath and shuddered in anticipation as he continued with that sexy grin and said, “And I know just what I want to feast on.”
She didn’t reply but simply opened her legs wider. Lucky cupped her ass, bringing her up off the desk and holding her in place with his huge hands. He could smell her arousal and wasted no time in licking her moist folds with his tongue. God, she tasted so sweet. And spicy. Yes, that perfect combination of her.
He sucked on her like he was starving, licking everywhere his tongue could reach. He pulled on her clit with his teeth as she tightened herself, ready to come, so he pulled away, making her wait.
“Fuck you, Lucky! Make me come now!” she moaned as she ground her pussy into his face.
He chuckled against her and palmed her ass in one hand, using his free fingers to thrust inside, once, twice, feeling her tighten, then he pulled away. “You fucker!” she screamed in indignation. Reaching down, she pulled at his hair.
He laughed and bit the inside of her leg. “Let go, baby. I’m not finished yet.”
She released his hair and laid back down, mumbling something about it better be worth it. He smacked her ass and wet his finger in her juices once again before trailing it down to her ass. He thrust his tongue into her shimmering canal at the same time he thrust his index finger into her furrowed hole. She bucked against him, fucking both his tongue and finger at the same time.
He continued his relentless assault on her body as she tightened around him and came with a scream, wetting his face with her arousal. He continued to lap at her juices as her pussy quivered under his loving care. Lucky pulled his finger out of her ass and grabbed her around the waist, lifting her up and impaling her on his hardened cock.
She gave him a sleepy look. “More?”
Lucky grinned and thrust his hips, hitting her sweet spot. He liked it a little rough, and he could tell she did too. She gasped and tightened around him. “Oh yeah, baby. Lots more.”
He thrust up again and again, as he sucked and bit her breasts. He could tell she was about to come again, so he reached down between them and pulled on her clit while he bit down on her engorged nipple. She tightened around his cock so hard, he thought he might die of pleasure, but went flew over the edge bringing her along. She shuddered around him, her gyrating pussy milking him until she collapsed on his chest.
He pulled on her hair again until she looked up at him. He kissed her long and slow, but while he was still inside her, his cock twitched. She moaned and broke off the kiss saying, “I’m going to need a minute or two.” She snuggled against his chest, her pussy still pulsing on his cock.
Lucky laughed. “I think that’s supposed to be my line, sugar.”
When she didn’t answer with her smart mouth, he realized she had fallen asleep. With his dick fully embedded in her, his pants down around his ankles, and her breasts pressed against him, Lucky closed his eyes and got ready for round two.
