Claiming Magique
Book One – Appointment with Pleasure series
Tina Donahue
A man at the center of power…a woman who
won’t be ruled…
They call her Magique.
Sought
out by the District’s elite, she’s no ordinary call girl, deciding who will
pleasure her for the evening. Her preference is for several men at once. Games
of bondage and submission heighten her arousal and desire to have a strong male
take her…to be adored.
Lobbyist
Hunter Prescott was only looking for a good time, not a woman who unleashes a
hunger so deep it changes his world. He won’t stop until Magique is his alone,
a prisoner of his lust, powerless against his growing need for her body and
heart.
With
this man, resistance isn’t allowed. For this woman, he’ll create a world of
sensual delight and yearning like none she’s known. Proving that only with
trust and true surrender will she find unparalleled rapture.
Excerpt:
The name she uses is Magique.
French
for magic. According to Hunt’s client, who’d paid close to twenty grand for
tonight’s “date”, Magique was available only when the mood hit her.
Hunt
had laughed at the notion, asking, “Seriously?”
“You
won’t be grinning if she doesn’t choose you,” Jack Kilhan had said.
Nearly
as rich as Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg, Jack was a VIP client at Givens and
Strobe, the firm where Hunt, David and Tim worked. Hunt had helped get
legislation passed that saved Jack’s companies a lot of bucks and regulatory
headaches. As a reward, Jack was providing the coming hours with Magique.
That
is, if she chose Hunt.
“Seriously?”
he’d asked the man again, dutifully sobered this time.
Jack
pursed his lips and drew hard on his illegal Cuban cigar, releasing aromatic
smoke with his words. “She doesn’t do this for the money, Hunt.” He offered a
knowing smile. “She doesn’t need to.”
Really.
“She has a day job? She’s a lobbyist too? Someone’s aide? Part of the POTUS’s
inner circle? His mistress?”
Jack
smoked his cigar.
Hunt
pressed on. “If she doesn’t need the money for living expenses, then why does
she do it?”
“Why do
you or any man?”
Dumb
question. They craved sex, the high of an orgasm, the warmth of a body and
close comfort without any of the nasty complications.
“Hey,”
David said, real quiet as though he feared being overheard. His Asian features
were tight with concern as he studied Hunt. “You all right?”
He was
horny as hell and hadn’t even seen her. What the fuck was the matter with him?
He enjoyed women, always had—for sex and an occasional friendship, not anything
soul shattering, knowing how easily love could become a weapon. He’d seen
enough of that shit as a child.
Had
Jack been putting him on with that she-might-be-inaccessible crap? There was
only one purpose for tonight…unrestrained indulgence. For her, him and his
buddies.
“She
prefers three guys at once,” Jack had informed. “Rather than one on one.”
Hunt
wasn’t about to question why.
“I’m
fine,” he said in answer to David, then cleared the tightness in his throat as
he headed for the front door.
Tim
followed, his strides decisive, his blond good looks downright preppy and at
home in this well-to-do neighborhood.
The cab
hummed down the street, leaving a whiff of diesel the breeze washed away.
Branches tapped the home’s windows. The glass glowed with amber-colored lights,
the gentle illumination spilling onto the darkened walk. Hunt thumbed the
doorbell. Its chime was feminine and soft, tempering his impatience, though it
didn’t keep him from jabbing it again.
A woman answered.
