He had to admit, he was intrigued. And Vanessa Hale was a beautiful woman. At least she had been. “Are you saying she’s being accused of spying on someone?”
“She took a job a couple of months back, and now there are some problems with the firm,” Tag explained.
“Why me?” The truth hit him. “Damn it. You think she’ll get close to me because of who I am.”
His father and brother ran Malone Oil. Michael worked but had a trust fund that would always ensure a certain type of woman found him attractive. He was bait.
“I don’t think that will hurt. My client thinks you might be able to draw her in,” Tag said. “She’s described her perfect man, and you fit the bill physically. Dani’s gotten close to her. That’s another worry.”
Suspicion flared hard. Tag had buried the lead on this one. “Dani? Danielle Lodge-Taylor? Ian, is the client Julian Lodge?”
“Yes, and Vanessa Hale, as a new employee in Julian’s financial firm, gets club access. I need you to go into The Club and find out what’s going on with her.”
It would be a tightrope he would have to walk. Julian Lodge had been Big Tag’s first investor and now a friend. He wasn’t merely a client. Julian was part of Ian’s family.
And Vanessa was intriguing. “Is she a sub?”
“Yes, which is why you will be her Dom mentor at The Club. I know this is a big ask.”
Michael didn’t hesitate. “I’ll do it.”
“No shoptalk.” Charlotte Taggart wore a blue dress that clung to her every curve. She reached out a hand to her husband as bouncy vibrant zydeco began to play.
Ian let her start to lead him toward the dance floor. “We’ll talk more later. Apparently I dance now.”
He always danced with his wife. Ian gave Charlotte his everything because they were a pair.
He wasn’t going to be a part of a pair, but it might be fun to get close to a woman like Vanessa Hale. Shameless. Likely with a soul as hard as a rock. He could play some fun games with her and not worry about breaking her heart.
Since she probably didn’t have one.
It might be fun to be her Dom. She would be under his control, at his mercy.
And he would have none.
