Devil or Angel? You decide.
Maybe it was the way his sweaty, sticky hands dragged down her arms, or the way he cupped her face and looked at her like she was a fragile flower. Maybe it was the way he cut his nerf steak, like he wasn't hungry, like he didn't really want it, or the way he'd pose like a model in front of the mirror before getting in the shower, or his utter lack of ambition and passion. Maybe it was his insistence that she wear her hair up in a tight bun, or the way he'd suck her face when he kissed her.
Maybe it was all of those things.
One thing was for sure. Karma Jayne was not having fun.
She'd been at it for weeks, slipped successfully into his life, said all the right things, made all the right moves. He'd been easy to hook, they were all easy to hook, these spoiled, inexperienced rich boys that sat lazily on their fortunes and hadn't a clue what was going on around them. Korrin Vron, for instance, had no idea he was neck deep in a very particular small-time crime syndicate with ties to some very elusive people, people Karma desperately needed to get in contact with. The Vron funds were bottomless, feeding various black markets and crime groups on a slow drip of credits. Not that Korrin knew much about any of it. The rest of his family took care of the details. But what he did know were names, routines, likes and dislikes, and how to approach the people in question successfully. Information, and so many credits he probably wouldn't notice if a few went missing.
She'd get both out of him, eventually. She had to.
But that's why it's work, right? Conning could be fun, it could be thrilling, but it was still a job and not every mark was exciting. A pity this one would take time. Usually, the long cons were the most fun, the anticipation, the slow build. But Vron? He had yet to cough up anything helpful despite her charms. She'd been holding back, unable to find that magical combination of what he liked and what he needed to push him over the edge and under her control, but she was close.
Hopefully.
Vron locked the door behind them as they entered the vast VIP suite on the highest level of the hotel, shrugging out of his designer jacket. Karma brushed past him with a sigh, tugging her colorful tresses from their restraints and kicking off her heels. Parties were never boring. So many people to play with, never enough time to watch the outcome. But the gathering tonight had left her feeling strangely…pent up. Fidgety. In need of something spontaneous.
"So," he said, coming up behind her. Vron snaked an arm around her waist, pulling her close and moving to slip the strap of her gown off her shoulder. "How about we make a few drinks, take off these clothes, and see how sturdy that bed is?"
Karma rolled her eyes a little. It sounded good, but it was just bravado. The man hadn't a damn clue what kind of sex it took to break a bed. She slipped through his fingers, pushing the strap back up. "Mmm. Let's do something fun!" she enthused, turning with a bright smile.
Vron looked offended. "That's what I just said."
Karma was oblivious, sapphire eyes sparkling with ideas as she looked through him. "Something…else, something out of the ordinary! No beds, no drinks, let's just…" She bounced a little on the spot, twirling around, grabbing handfuls of the silky, buttery material draped over her figure and hiking it high so she could run across the plush carpeted sitting room unencumbered and leap onto the long, flat chaise lounge with a squeal, a tumble of vibrant fushia, violet, shapely limbs and expensive fabric. "Let's be spontaneous! We have the whole of Coruscant at our disposal, and you want to have me in a bed?" The bubbly little minx peeped at Vron over the edge of the lounge, her face full of mischief. "How about here?" Karma walked two fingers slowly along the ridge, raising one finely arched eyebrow. "No? Well, how about…" She rolled off the couch, a spring in her step as she sashayed towards the bar counter and draped herself suggestively over the cold metal. "…here? Hmm?"
Vron looked amused. Sort of. He shook his head, pointing towards the bedroom. "Karma--"
She ignored him, high on her own excitement, cheeks flushed as she left the bar behind, hiked her gown up, and made a mad dash for the small soaking pool near the windows.
Vron figured it out too late. His dark brows came together, anxiety creasing his forehead. "No, Karma, that dress was too expensive—"
There was a splash. Vron sighed. Karma came up from the hot water, her gown billowing around her like a million credit cloud and pushed her hair back from her face with a sly smirk. "How about right here?" She trailed her fingers through the steaming water, playfully flicking droplets towards him, but he was too far away to be touched. "We've never done it here…aren't you curious?" Karma cocked her head at him. And suddenly, the fun-loving, vivacious creature melted into the background, and something far more sensual came to the forefront. Her pheromones slithered towards him, snaking around his senses, soaking the space around him with their enchanting venom…
Vron's mouth went dry, lust pulsing deeply through his body as he changed his mind, moving towards her like a moth to a flame.
Every quivering bead of water came into focus as it slid down her flesh, glittering in her hair, gathered on her plump, pink lips. Silhouetted by the bright Coruscant lights outside the suite window, she stood a vision in the water, gown wetly gripping her form, outlining every scrumptious curve in erotic detail, her voice the only sound in the universe he could ever care about. Her scent was intoxicating, drawing him in as he crossed the room and neared the pool without realizing it, breathing deeply. He felt his body react, didn't care about his shoes or his pants or her expensive dress as he stepped into the water, drinking in every inch of her…
The doorbell rang, followed by a sharp knock.
Karma blinked, startled. Vron reached for her, clearly not caring, but she reeled in her lures and looked her mark straight in the eyes. "Door first. Fun after." He looked unconvinced, but she let loose a winning smile and bit her bottom lip lightly. "Please? For me?"
Vron blinked a little, nodding. "I think I'll get the door first," he said as if it were his idea.
"Good! Go on," she said, flicking water at him as he sloshed out of the pool. "I'll wait here…"
"You better." He gave her a grin that he probably thought was charming and jogged for the front door. "Who is it? What do you want?"
"From the front desk, sir. There's a problem with your credit chit," came the male voice. Quite cordial but regretful.
"What?" Amazing how fast lust can change to anger. He heard Karma call to him from the pool, but he waved her words off. "That's impossible, there's no way that can—"
"The chit was declined when we tried to charge for your last order, sir."
Did he just interrupt him? Vron's face grew stormy. "Impossible." He fumbled with the locks, yanking open the door, all rich boy rage. "I have more than enough money on that chit. You must be doing something wrong."
