Lauren's POV – The Clubhouse – Living Room – 2 Weeks Later - Noon

"Lo? Lo…? LAUREN!" I nearly jumped out of my daydream about Bo. I've never seen such a sexy curator in all my years of…confiscating rare items.

"What Kenz? Geez, you almost had me jumping out of my skin!" Kenzi swung one leg over my legs since I had my legs up on the coffee table while I was playing on my laptop. She took a seat on my legs like she has done many times before, facing me.

She playfully used my legs to drum on with her hands. "Well, in my defense I've been calling you since I walked in the door. But, you've been weird ever since you failed at getting the Painite gem over some curator. And since when do you; The Black Cat, ever not get what you're after?"

I smirked at my best friend/sister as I thought about Bo. "When I find something more appealing to me? Well not something but, someone."

Kenzi groaned, briefly putting her hands over face and shaking her head in disapproval.

"Really? Really!? You gave up one of the rarest gems. Actually, according to most experts the rarest gem…and the biggest piece of this rarest gem known to man for some hot chick? Laur, come on, you can literally have any hot piece of lady ass that you want minus moi. And you get sidetracked for this girl? Ugh, LoLo, we could have broken that thing into pieces after we removed it's identification number and went on multiple trips around the world for years after we made it into jewelry and sold it or something."

I rolled my eyes as Kenzi hopped up from my legs to the couch next to me. "Kenzi, we don't need the money. We don't ever need the money. You know I just wanted to steal that because I thought it was pretty."

"Yeah, yeah…But then you found a brunette that you like even more. I did some digging about your new obsession. She's HAWT! I don't think she's worth passing up the Painite gem but whateves. Come on..."

Kenzi double-tapped my leg like a drum again as she got up. "We need to get ready for that charity event." I groaned as I got up, putting my laptop aside on the couch. "Yeah, yeah…I couldn't find any real detailed information on Bo through Google anyway."

Evening – The Lewis Mansion

"Thank you everyone for coming out tonight to help those less fortunate than us. Please enjoy the rest of your evening. The win a Date With a Bachelor or Bachelorette auction will begin shortly and all proceeds will go to local homeless shelters and food banks."

I stepped down from my little stage for the night after I made my little speech. I can't wait for this to be over. I really rather be stealing something then hosting something. But, I love helping the less fortunate with my…fortune.

"Damn LoLo, ya look HAWT in that strapless, tight black, designer cocktail dress. If it was any shorter you'd be showing your ass. Not that you need any more ammo to get anyone you want."

I chuckled as I took my champagne glass from Kenzi. "Thanks Kenz." We made a way over to a quiet corner of the room for privacy. "So, did you find anything new that we can steal?"

"No, there's plenty of goodies out there but nothing challenging for us to steal. Honestly it's getting kind of boring stealing and never getting caught. Don't you think so? Holy shit…" Kenzi broke out with quiet laughter since we were whispering. "I couldn't say that last bit with a straight face, Lo!"

I chuckled as we clink glasses. "How could it ever get boring? We steal from the shady elites to give back to those in need and if we occasionally steal something for ourselves…Well, that's what insurance is for, Karma is a bitch and everyone knows that black cats are known to bring bad luck. We're technically taking stolen property anyway. So, we're not really criminals if you look at the fact-…"

My eyes briefly widened before I regained my composure with an added interest when I saw her enter my estate. "Interesting…"

I saw Kenzi follow my gaze from the corner of my eye. "Well, if it isn't Bo Dennis…On the arm of Dyson Thornwood."

"Ohh, D-man is with your new obsession. What a small world. But, don't worry, I'm going In…He is an occasional ass always with a great ass." I laughed as Kenzi fixed her red dress to expose her cleavage some more before she went in to get Dyson. She's always had a thing for him. Maybe she'll actually tell him one day.

Maybe.

Just as I was about to approach Bo and Dyson along with Kenzi, I was pulled away on to the dance floor by two of my most flirty and annoying contributors. Mandy Hart and Melissa Gold are two of the richest socialites I know and they're always in competition for my attention even though they completely bore me with their materialistic interests and equally boring conversations.

And unfortunately for me I had to be a good host to make sure we can bring in as much money as we can to help those in need. "Oh Lauren, it's been so long. You don't seem to have time for us anymore. We're a little offended."

Mandy; the self-proclaimed hottest woman in the world, French blonde bombshell thinks giving me a pouty face along with her practically whiny statement is doing anything for me? "She's right Lauren, you don't play with this anymore…Don't you miss us? We sure miss you…"

Melissa is a very annoying redhead. She looks a lot like Jessica Rabbit. But unlike Jessica Rabbit, she is like I said; annoying and her breasts aren't as big and we all know I'm a breast woman.

"What can I say, ladies? I'm a very busy woman." I falsely smiled as brightly as I could as I briefly danced with the women with me in the middle like a sandwich. I'm starting to feel trapped between the two women both dressed in gold that do nothing but bore me or annoy me. I had to think of an excuse to get away from these two right now.

I very discreetly caught a glimpse Bo in the corner of my eye dancing with Dyson. She was staring at me over his shoulder with want and intrigue in her eyes, which brought a genuine smile to my face.

Okay, I'll give these two ladies another few seconds while I think of a reason to excuse myself. "Hi tramp 1 and 2, I need to pull my sister away from you guys before she gets an STD. Okay? Bye!"

Kenzi yanked me out of that uncomfortable sandwich by my hand just in time, much to Mandy and Melissa's displeasure and protests. "Thanks Kenzi."

"No probs, so, D-man felt that it'd rude to leave Bo by herself. Sooo, I figured you could more than help me in that department. Hell, I figured you'd drop your panties for with this one since you want that curator so bad. Btws, she looks hot and that backless royal blue dress. Now, get in there."

Kenzi practically threw me towards Dyson and Bo by my hand that she grabbed previously to get me out of that uncomfortable three person sandwich. I waited until he spun her to easily slip in as her new dance partner without permission. "Mind if I cut in, Ms. Dennis?"

Bo's eyes briefly widened in surprise. Looks like I caught her off-guard again as I took the lead in our dance. "Now, you're stealing dances too?" I chuckled as our bodies automatically seemed to mold to each other as tightly as possible.

"If you want me to I'll happily return you to Mr. Thornwood's arms. But, it looks like his dance cart is full with someone very close to me…However, I can still let you go if you'd like. I'll even find you another dance partner before I do so. I wouldn't be a very good host if I left you on the dance floor with no one to dance with. So, what would you like me to do, Ms. Dennis?"

I knew she was attracted to me. But, I wasn't going to force myself on her even though I know that fact.

I decided to loosen my grip on her as if I was going to let her go before she even answered me just to see how she responds.

And to my somewhat surprise, she didn't disappoint. The moment I loosened my grip and motioned to get out of her embrace she pulled me back in with one arm around my neck and the other arm around my waist. "Don't go."

I smiled as our lips were almost touching again. They were less than an inch apart. "Yes ma'am…But, if you want me to stay then, you have to answer some questions with complete honesty." I somewhat roughly wrapped my arms around her waist to pull her even more impossibly close into my body.

Bo whispered a small moan in response, making me smirk in satisfaction. "I'm going to take that moan as a sign of agreement. When I brushed our lips together 2 weeks ago to let's say…"borrow" some of your lip gloss since you didn't want me to kiss you, did you feel the electricity when our lips brushed together?" I asked her seductively as we locked eyes. "Do you want me to kiss you now?"

I felt Bo closing the sliver of space between our heated lips. I was finally about to get what I've been dreaming about for two weeks.

"Excuse me, I'm sorry for the interruption, Ms. Lewis." Bo and I were unfortunately interrupted by my assistant Charles, who looked very uncomfortable interrupting our intimate moment. "But, your Win a Date auction is about to start and you did tell your guests that you would be the first Bachelorette to be auctioned off tonight."

I give Charles a sincere smile along with a nod. "No apology needed, Charles. You're right, I have to be back on that stage in less than 60 seconds." Charles walked away with a nod. He's the sweetest elderly man that I've ever had the pleasure of meeting, employing and becoming friends with.

I turned my attention back to Bo for a few more seconds before I had to leave her again. "Why do you steal if you don't need to?" I appreciated Bo whispering her question so that only I could hear it.

I moved my lips next to her ear to whisper back my answer. "Robin Hood? I'll see you on stage beautiful. If you need anything and I mean anything, go to Charles. As you can tell by my mansion that has way too chandeliers, stairs, hot tubs, windows, bathrooms, bedrooms and more…Anything you may need is available within these walls and is yours, gorgeous."

I slipped out of her arms with those final words because I didn't have a choice. Time was against me. Stupid charity auction that was Kenzi's idea, never again.

It felt cold being out of her arms. But, I had a promise to keep. And I always keep my promises. Well…almost always.

2 Minutes Later

The current bid for me. Well, a date with me is at $5,000. Duing the whole bidding war the majority of my focus was discreetly on Bo. I stole a few glances whenever I could in between giving the rest of the audience attention to get the bid up as high as possible.

"$5,000 going once…going twice." This is one of the few times that Tamsin's loudmouth comes in handy. "SOL-"

"$6,000!" Hale Santiago, my knight in shining armor. Very few people know that we're actually pretty good friends. Most people think we are rival Tech entrepreneurs. But, in secret we're not.

He came in from the very back of the room with the last minute bid causing me to cock one of my eyebrows up while putting my left hand on my hip in displeasure just for show. When really…he's just doing what we agreed to.

Saving me from boring, stupid people with too much money.

"$6,000 going once…going twice…SOLD! Congratulations, Mr. Santiago!"

I couldn't help but notice the upset look on Bo's face after Tamsin's announcement.

10 Minutes Later

"Thanks Hale, you're awesome." I whispered to him while making it appear to the rest of the room that I am going to treat this like a very formal business transaction and nothing more.

He chuckled, "Anytime mama. So, I got to know…since we're not really going to go on a date or anything. You know you can pick my replacement and I couldn't help but notice how fond of a particular brunette you are."

He pointed to Bo with his champagne glass. "Oh look...It's almost as if she knew I pointed to her since she's coming this way. Lo, for once in your life just shut your mouth and follow my lead and let me do something nice for you for no reason."

"Wha-"

"Shh…shut up, she's coming."

Bo had a smile on her face as she took Hale's hand for a firm shake.

"Congratulations Mr. Santiago. My name is Bo Dennis and I may only know about three people here but you're one of them. I actually came here tonight to speak with you. It was actually a last-minute thing honestly but once I heard that you were rumored to be here I was hoping to become a plus one just to get a moment of your time. I'm a museum curator specializing in the rarest of the rare and I was hoping to get a moment of your time to see if I could get you to donate one of your rare art pieces to my employer instead of one of our competitors. I know you have been considering donating a few of your pieces for quite a while now and I would just like the opportunity to tell you why you should donate it to museum that I work for instead of a different Museum."

Hale nodded with a dazzling smile. "Sure, no problem. Ms. Dennis. I might as well give you that minute now since Ms. Lewis doesn't want to honor that date with me anytime soon. Say…I have a feeling that you're good with persuasion. Perhaps you could go on a date with her in my place and persuade her to invest in my new project. If you do that for me then I can guarantee that at least one of my rare art pieces will go to your employer's Museum. What do you say? Do we have a deal? Go on a date with this…"

Hale turn his gaze from Bo to me, giving me a subtle wink. "Complex woman to try and to talk some sense into her and you'll get at least one of my pieces for sure."

Bo looked between Hale and I hesitantly for a few moments, clearly unsure of what to say or do. So, I decided to help make her decision a little easier. "Don't worry, Ms. Dennis. If you say yes to date, I promise I won't bite. You can say no as well and I'll still make sure that Mr. Santiago doesn't hold it against you."

I gave her my trademark sexy smirk along with a wink. What can I say? I love being the reason she's flustered.

"O- okay, sure. I can do that." Hale clapped his hands together in joy. "Great! Well, I can give you that minute now if you'd like?"

…And that's my cue to take my leave. "Well then, I'll let you two talk and Ms. Dennis..." I put my lips to her ear again. "I'll only bite if you ask me to…I'll find you after you're done with him so we can discuss our future date plans, beautiful."

I walked away from the pair as I grazed my hand against her arm as well as my lips against her cheek, causing her to shiver. I gotta say…

I've gotten these reactions from many women over the years. But, man do I love getting these reactions from her. It's very…

Addicting.
