I woke up abruptly, disoriented until I recognized the hand-painted gold butterflies on the ceiling. Luke lay on his stomach next to me, snoring quietly into the pillow, his body soft and relaxed, a different picture from the muscle-bound animal who had quiet recently blown my mind. I must have dozed off while he showered, but he hadn't bothered to wake me and send me on my way.

Ambient light filled the room but the desert sky before us was pitch black, save the frenetic city lights, with no hint of the impending dawn. I slid quietly out of the bed and dressed, though despite my best efforts, I could not find my panties anywhere. I put on my heels and stopped at the writing desk. I scribbled a note, setting the $10,000 chip on top of it.
