Chapter 10

Since Elizabeth had never been to Vegas, Jason asked her if there was anything in particular she wanted to see. She told him she wanted to ride one of the gondolas. Having been to Italy he wasn't impressed with the ones here, but if she wanted to go they would. He made a mental note to take his lovely wife to Venice. Maybe for a belated honeymoon.

After that Jason suggested they go to one of the casinos. He knew for a fact that she hadn't ever been. Elizabeth told her husband that throwing money away didn't interest her. Jason countered that she might win. That of course made her even more adamant that she wasn't gambling. She didn't want Jason fixing the game in her favor. Instead she suggested a trip to Hoover Dam.

When they returned to the city he took her to see the dancing lights at the Bellagio. Elizabeth laughed and swayed to the music, Jason watched her and smiled. They were walking back to the hotel hand in hand when they passed a boutique. There in the window was a beautiful red dress. "That's gorgeous." Elizabeth exclaimed.

"Would you like it?" Jason would love to see her in that. "You could wear it to dinner."

"I don't normally wear red." Elizabeth said eyeing the dress.

"Why not?" Jason asked her.

"I don't think it's my color." She had worn red to her school's sweetheart dance and her sister had told her she looked horrible. Her mother simply said that not everyone could pull off the color. That red was for someone more dynamic and vibrant. So now red was an underwear only color.

"You would look amazing in that dress. It's short and would show off your legs." Jason loved her legs. "Come on." He tugged her into the shop.

"May I help you?" The sales associate asked coming over.

"My wife would like to see the red dress in the window." Jason loved calling her his wife.

"Absolutely. Size two?" The associate said looking at Elizabeth.

"Yes, please." Having shopped with Emily she knew that the staff in pricey boutiques could size you with a glance.

"One moment." The woman walked across the store and returned with the garment. "Follow me please." She took them to the changing area. "You can sit here." The clerk said to Jason. She opened the door to a fitting room and left them to it.

"I'll be just a minute." Elizabeth went in to get changed. Five minutes later she stepped out in the dress. "Well?" She waited anxiously for his opinion.

"Beautiful." The dress fit like it was made for her. Her beautiful shoulders were bared by the halter top and so was her back. The dress was fitted through her waist and stopped just above her knees. "Hold on." He called for the clerk. "My wife needs shoes."

"Jason I have heels back at the hotel." Elizabeth told him.

The associate was already moving away. She returned with a pair of silver sandals. "Try these."

"Thank you." Jason took the shoes and went down on one knee in front of Elizabeth. "May I?"

Biting her lower lip she raised one foot. He rubbed his thumb across her ankle and she had to swallow a moan. He slipped the shoe on but didn't immediately release her foot. Instead he looked up at her and gave her a sinful smile. By the time he finished with the second shoe she was ready to tackle him. "Perfect." He whispered. "We'll take the whole outfit."

"Very good." The associate was thrilled. This was a large commission.

"I'll get changed." Elizabeth had already noted that the dress didn't have a price tag. She wasn't sure she wanted to know how much Jason was spending. She handed the dress over the door, the shoes were already in the associate's hand. By the time she came out Jason had already paid.

"Ready?" He asked wanting to make another stop.

"Where are the bags?" Elizabeth wanted to know.

"They are being delivered to the hotel." Jason took her hand.

"Really?" Elizabeth asked surprised.

"It's a common service the shops here provide." Jason told her leading her out of the store. "I want to make another stop before we head back to the hotel."

"Okay." Elizabeth was content to walk beside him. When he turned to enter a store she stopped refusing to go further. "No."

Jason grinned at her. "You haven't even looked at anything yet."

"I'm not going in there." Elizabeth put her foot down.

"You can go in with me now or I can come back tomorrow while you are at the spa." Jason wasn't going to be swayed.

"That's a Harry Winston store." Elizabeth hissed.

"I know. Sonny recommended this place. I got Emily's wedding gift here." Jason wanted to buy Elizabeth some nice things.

"I'm not really a jewelry person." She hadn't married him so he could buy her things.

"I'd like for you to have some jewelry." Jason told her "I was thinking a nice necklace to go with your dress. Maybe some earrings as well." It would be a good start. For her birthday he could buy her more. One piece at time he could build her a nice collection.

"Jason, you don't need to buy me things." Elizabeth protested.

"I know." Jason assured her. "It will look odd if you don't have something." Which was true but not the reason he wanted to do this.

"Oh, you mean if we go out to business dinners?" Elizabeth heard Carly talk about how boring they were. At least now she'd have someone to talk to.

"Exactly." Whatever got her through the door. "Let's go." Jason walked up to the door and a security guard opened it.

"Welcome back Mr. Morgan." He was greeted by the manager. "Congratulations."

"Thank you." Jason grinned. "This is my wife Elizabeth."

"Mrs. Morgan. Congratulations." The manager repeated. They made a striking couple. "How may I help you today?"

"We'd like to browse." Jason didn't want Elizabeth to feel pressured.

"Of course. Let me know if you see something you like." A man who could drop as much money as Jason Morgan got whatever he wanted. The manager nodded to the guard who locked the door so the couple could shop undisturbed.

Half an hour later Elizabeth was standing at the counter with an assortment of jewels in front of her. They were displayed on several black velvet squares. Earrings that sparkled with diamonds. Strings of pearls. Cocktail rings for her right hand. Bracelets of different gemstones. It was a bit overwhelming.

"What do you think?" Jason liked the assortment. He had picked most of it while Elizabeth looked around. "Do you have combs?" His grandmother often wore a diamond comb in her hair.

The manager moved off and returned with a pair and at Jason's nod put it with the rest. "Ears, neck, wrist, and fingers. I think that's everything. Is there anything you don't like?"

"It's an awful lot." Elizabeth didn't want to take advantage.

"You won't wear it all at once." Jason pulled her close and kissed her temple. "Breath Izzie."

"Izzie?" Elizabeth asked looked up at him.

"Yeah, my little wildcat." He whispered in her ear. She had a wild streak that would shock most people. In the bedroom she was very uninhibited. He loved that. "We'll take everything." Jason decided. "She'll wear the diamond studs out."

"They are good everyday earrings." The manager told them both as he reached below the counter for boxes.

Elizabeth slipped the earrings on and looked at herself in the mirror. They really were very nice. "Thank you Jason." She said softly.

"Later I want you to wear those earrings and the pearls for me. Along with those silver heels." He told her quietly. His eyes flared with heat.

"Okay." Her stomach tightened in anticipation.

"Mr. Morgan." The manager was ready.

On the way back to the hotel they passed a car dealership and Jason wanted to stop but Elizabeth said no. She could only imagine the damage he could do in there. Besides it wouldn't fit on the plane, she told him laughing.

Back at the hotel they were laughing as they stepped into the room followed by the bellhop. Everything had been waiting upon their arrival. Jason tipped the kid and locked the door behind him. "I believe you agreed to my request."

"I did." Elizabeth turned to go into their bedroom when the blinking light on the phone caught her attention. "You have a message."

Jason walked over and picked up the receiver. He snagged Elizabeth around her waist and pulled her close as he listened. He was frowning by the time he hung up. "I need to ask you a question."

"Alright." She could tell he didn't want to.

"While you were dating Lucky did you ever wake up feeling like you did this morning?" Jason knew that the other man hadn't had sex with her but there were lots of things that you could do to an unconscious woman.

"No. Why?" Elizabeth wanted to know.

"Last night, Lucky put something in your drink." Jason started.

"I thought you said it was Johnny." Suddenly she felt the need to shower.

He caught on to how she was feeling and pulled her closer. "The soda that you ordered at the bar. Francis and Cody saw Lucky put something in it. Francis ordered you another drink, but had the one that was tampered with analyzed."

"Cody is here?" Elizabeth hadn't seen him.

"Sonny called him out to watch Lucky." Jason admitted.

"Tell Sonny thank you. What was in the drink?" Elizabeth wanted to know.

"Ecstasy. A lot of it." Jason wouldn't lie. "Francis said you would have ended up in the hospital."

"You were right. I didn't want to believe it, because I guess I'm naïve, but you were right." Elizabeth leaned into him.

"You aren't naïve. You just think well of others." He wouldn't let her put herself down. "Francis called Max and had him go through Lucky's place. He found more drugs."

"As far as I know he never gave me anything." Elizabeth said trying to think back. "A couple of times I felt like I got drunk really fast." She had indulged before turning twenty-one. Something Jason knew since she had beers at his place a few times. "Once I woke up with my clothes on but my shirt buttoned wrong and my bra open underneath." She was starting to feel sick to her stomach. At least there was never any proof he went further, her panties hadn't ever been missing. Nor did she ever have an entire night missing. "But he never…"

"No, he never." Jason knew that for a fact. "He probably gave you light doses to make you more agreeable." He may have even been testing it on her.

"So why didn't he finish?" Elizabeth asked grateful that he hadn't.

"Maybe he wanted you awake." Jason was also grateful Lucky hadn't taken that final step. But that gratitude wouldn't get the other man any leniency.

"Do you think he's done it to anyone else?" Elizabeth hoped not.

"Cody said if they hadn't known that Lucky had something on him they would have missed it, he was that smooth." Jason would be completely honest.

"You need to contact the PCPD and tell them. All the drugs are different. If they have open cases they can test his stash against what they have to find out if he did it. If Lucky hurt anyone else they deserve some type of closure. At the very least they can arrest him for possession." Elizabeth put her arms around Jason and held him tight. "Thank you for keeping me safe."

"Always." He didn't hesitate to say. Calling the police was a good idea. The Vegas police could arrest Lucky and Jason could find someone inside to handle the job. "How about if I fill up the tub and let you have a soak?"

"What happened to me draping myself in jewels for you?" Elizabeth loved the thought of having a soak.

"You own those jewels, you can drape yourself whenever the mood strikes you." Jason told her smiling. Now was not the time for making love. She would let him know when she was ready. "Right now let's relax."

"Are you planning on joining me?" Elizabeth wanted to know.

"I'm going to make a few calls while you soak." Jason wanted to get started on this. The police needed time to do their thing. He wanted Lucky arrested before the wedding on Saturday so that they didn't have to worry about him doing something stupid there.

"I'll fill the tub, you make your calls." Elizabeth gave him a soft kiss and then went into the bedroom to get changed.

Jason just watched her. She could have been badly hurt. He wouldn't allow Lucky another pass. He wasn't leaving Vegas alive.
