Seduced in New York (Sexy Spy Series, No. 1) (4 page)

Her longish, darkish hair swayed back and forth while as she slowly walked toward me, her high heels making a clicking sound as they touched the asphalt. I had read in one of the papers that her parents were Asian and European and that clearly showed in the stunning dress that she was wearing. It was brightly colored and it showed off her curvy figure quite well since it was tight fitting, especially around her chest area.

Reportedly, she had dated quite a number of men before she had settled on her husband, and even though I was more attracted to men than women, I could see that she was quite attractive.

I waited as she approached with her bodyguards. Tall, dark, and rather quite ugly looking, they were not the kind of men that you would want to meet in a dark alleyway.

Linda paused as she reached me. She looked me up and down as though I was an item at an auction. She then asked the question that I had been dreading. “What happened to Kevin?”

My heart was going a million miles an hour as I smiled and answered. “Kevin got held up. I’m his replacement. I’m Zoe. I held out my hand to shake, but she just stood there.”

“Do you have the list?” she asked.

I waved the envelope. “Right here.”

Linda nodded and turned to one of her bodyguards who reached into his jacket and out a wad of cash. He gave it to her and she in turn offered it to me.

I froze. I hadn’t expected for the deal to occur so quick. I knew that as soon as I took the money and gave her the list than she would be gone and that would be that. I mustered up the best apologetic smile that I could. “My boss wants more money.”

Linda frowned. “When I spoke to Kevin he assured me—”

“The offer’s changed. Double or nothing,” I replied with as much confidence as I could muster. “Take it or leave it.”

Linda didn’t move a muscle but I knew that she was thinking things through. I had to give her an incentive to hurry since
Troy
or one of his men could show up at any minute.

I
 
turned and slowly walked away, hoping that I would hear her voice calling me back.
But
with every footstep that I took, the more nervous I became.

Suddenly, Linda called out. “It’s a deal.”

I turned around and stared at her. “In cash.”

She nodded. “If you want to accompany me to my residence I’ll give you the money there.” She motioned toward the helicopter and, as she did so, relief kicked in.

“Deal.” I walked toward her and, once there, she led the way to the helicopter.

It wasn’t long before the aircraft was in the air and flying across the beautiful city of
New York
. I glanced out of the window as we headed up the coast.

After ten minutes of flying, the helicopter started to descend and, a few minutes later I found myself on a private helipad.

Stepping out, I followed Mrs. Kolovos to a waiting limousine, climbed in, and sat down. The smell of expensive leather filled my nostrils as the foreign looking driver drove the short way to the house.

“Do you mix business with pleasure?” Linda asked as she looked at me.

I hesitated, not knowing what she had in mind but, remembering that I was the one that needed to get information out of her, I put on my sweetest smile. “What did you have in mind?”

“I’m having a small cocktail party at my place in just over an hour,” she replied. “And, since we might do business again, I thought you might want to get to know some friends of mine.”

“What kind of friends?” I asked, curious.

“Oh, you know. Bankers, politicians. It’s a private party so, as they say in
Las Vegas
, what happens here, stays here. Though, in your line of business I am sure that you would already know that, right?”

I nodded. “I would be delighted to join you,” I replied, as I glanced out as the car whisked past two mammoth looking gates.

It was everything that Patrick had told me and more. There was a tennis court, swimming pool, rose garden, riding stables, orchards, and two massive buildings.

As the vehicle pulled up alongside the main building, I suddenly became nervous. I didn’t know why, but for some reason I had a strange sensation that I was being watched. Which I probably was. Who knew how many security cameras there were?

“This way,” Linda called as she made her way up to the big wooden doors that had been freshly coated in white paint.

I followed her through the large doors. I couldn’t help but whistle to myself as I saw the inside of the place. It was pretty spectacular.

I had been in many mansions since I had started my current line as work, but none like this. Everything seemed to glitter and sparkle.

I followed Linda to her private study. As I entered, the two bodyguards left us and closed the door. It was just her and me. Just what I wanted.

I walked over to her as she reached for a book in the bookcase. A moment later, the bookcase shifted slightly to reveal a safe. Amazed that she was doing this with me watching on, I wondered how much information I could get out of her.

“So, how long have you known Kevin for?” Linda asked.

“Well, Mrs. Kolovos—” I said.

“Please call me Linda. After all, we’re new best friends.” Linda gazed at me with a longing expression on her face. “I knew Kevin was thoughtful, but I didn’t know he was thoughtful enough to send you.”

“Me?” I stuttered as I failed to comprehend what she meant.

Leaving the safe, Linda walked over. She brushed her arms against me and held me tight. Her richly scented perfume filled the air as she leaned forward and gazed into my blue eyes. “Yes, Kevin knew I had a soft spot for girls like you.”

Still not understanding what was going on, I stumbled backwards and sat down on the sofa. “Like me?”

“Yes.
Tall, brown-haired girls.”
Linda sat down beside me and put a hand on my leg. “You know, that blue dress really brings out your blue eyes. You should wear it all the time.”

“Ah, thanks,” I muttered. “I think...” I paused as she leaned forward. Her soft lips brushed against mine and, without thinking, my mouth opened just a bit and her tongue swirled around my mouth. What the hell was going on here?

I broke away and stared at Linda, not sure what to say. She seemed upset. It was now clear to me why her bodyguards had left her alone. It had been done on her orders. Somehow she had got the impression that I liked her. It didn’t make sense, especially as I didn’t even know that she was a lesbian.

Thinking quickly, I knew that as soon as I revealed to her that I wasn’t a lesbian, things would turn from personal to business.
And
as much as I wanted to talk about business, there was only one way I could get close to her. And that was if she felt she had a personal connection with me.

Business would have to wait. I gingerly smiled at Linda. “Sorry if I startled you, but it’s been a long time. A very, long time.”

Linda nodded thoughtfully. “Me too. Since my husband went away, I’ve only been with two women.”

“Your husband?” I acted startled, hoping that Linda would open up about Mr. Kolovos.

“I’m not bi-sexual if that’s what you’re thinking,” Linda smiled. “I actually didn’t know I was a lesbian until halfway though our marriage. I still loved him, but the passion I had for him was gone. It was almost as though I woke up one day and I was a lesbian.”

“Ha, ha,” I laughed.

Linda laughed back. “I admit that it does sound a bit funny. How about you? When did you first realize that you were one?”

“Uh…” I hesitated, unsure of what to say.

“You don’t need to be afraid of me,” Linda spoke up. She put her hand on my shoulder and gently squeezed it. “I’m not going to hurt you.”

“It’s been a long time,” I muttered.

“Then you should enjoy this even more so,” Linda replied, smiling. She scooted closer and sat on my knees. With her hands on my shoulders, and her bottom sitting on my legs, I felt trapped.

She leaned in and started kissing me. There was nothing else to do except respond the same way.

I smiled and kissed her back. She pressed against me and I was forced to lie against the couch as she straddled me. She kissed my cheeks before moving onto my neck. I decided to let nature take its course so I closed my eyes and didn’t resist.

Her hands drifted down from my shoulders and came to rest on my
brea
sts. She fondled them through the sheer clothing. My breathing started to increase as my body responded to her
del
icate touch.

Her kisses, her hands, everything about her was so different from Kevin. I’d only been with a few women, mostly in situations to do with my job, and that is one thing that I’d always noticed.

I opened my eyes and kissed Linda, my tongue swirling around in her mouth. I could sense that she was getting all hot and bothered by all this kissing.

Caught up in the moment, I began to fondle Linda’s breasts, not realizing what was happening, until she clasped her hand against mine and held it tight.

“Let’s get comfortable,” Linda whispered. She held out her hand.

I smiled and took her hand in mine. “Whatever you say, baby.” I followed her as we passed several bookcases and realized that there was a small door set in the woodwork, hidden from view of the desk.

Linda pressed down on a certain book and the door opened to reveal a darkened room. Switching on the light, Linda walked over to the bed that was in the center of the small bedroom. “No one will disturb us in here,” she said, grinning.

I chuckled inwardly. Linda was acting as though she was high school and she didn’t want any of the teachers to know what was going on. It really must have been a long time for her.

I closed the door and walked over to her, planting a big, juicy kiss on her lips as I did so. “Whatever pleases you, pleases me,” I murmured.

Linda smiled back and slipped off her dress. With the pinkish light shining down from the roof, coupled with the pink lingerie that she had on, she looked amazing.

I didn’t say a word as she took off her socks and shoes and then walked over to me. I turned around and let her undo the zip on my blue dress. As it floated to the ground, I realized that there wasn’t any turning back now. I took off my shoes and took a deep
brea
th.
 

I let Linda gaze at me. Except for the red panties, I was nude. The matching bra was back with Patrick. I had taken it off as I hadn’t thought it went well with the blue dress. Plus, I didn’t think I would be this nude this soon again.

Fortunately though, I was happy with how my body looked. My
brea
sts weren’t that large, most men seemed to think they were the right size, and they were a nice shape. And they were all mine. No plastic surgeon was ever going to touch them.

As Linda brushed her hands over my nipples, they became hard and more sensitive to her touch. She smiled as she realized what she was doing to me. “You’ve got beautiful breasts,” she whispered.

“So have you.” I reached out and unclasped the pink bra that she had on. She stood still as I did so, gazing into my blue eyes.
