No, I fucking need her. Maybe I’m stupid. Maybe this is a mistake. But I take out my phone and call my babysitter anyway. She agrees to watch Lacey for the rest of the afternoon.
When I hang up the phone, I call Erin over. She sits down next to me on the bench while Lacey blissfully digs through some wood chips a few feet away.
“I want something from you,” I say to her softly.
“What’s that?”
“Your word. That you never betrayed me.”
She hesitates. “I never betrayed you,” she says. “I promise. I was going to, but then I met you and Lacey and…” She trails off and looks at me, her eyes a little wide, and I believe her.
“Come with me somewhere,” I say to her. “I called a babysitter for Lacey.”
She looks surprised. “Where?”
“A hotel I own.”
“You own a hotel?”
“Well, I own the majority share in a hotel.” I cock my head at her. “Are you interested?”
“What do you want to do there?” she asks me softly.
“I want to make you work for your forgiveness.”
She stares at me for a second then slowly nods her head. I can feel pure desire and need ringing through my body.
I’m going to forgive her. I know that I am. But first, I’m going to make her earn it, and she’s going to like it.

Erin
I’m nervous as hell as we walk into the honeymoon suite together. It’s on the top floor of a gorgeous hotel building tower, and Griffin can simply come and go as he pleases.
I don’t know what I’m doing here. He should hate me, he really should. And I think he does on some level. But clearly not entirely, since he brought me to this room, and he says he’s going to forgive me.
That sends chills down my spine. He’s going to forgive me, but he’s going to make me work for it. I’m dripping wet already with anticipation, and I know that’s a little messed up. I should be afraid, a little nervous, since what I did to him is inexcusable. But I’m still so excited that I can barely contain myself.
The suite is big, a lot bigger than I thought it would be. There’s a large sitting room with a couch and a television, a small kitchen area, and a bedroom and a bathroom leading off the back hallway.
Griffin takes off his jacket and drapes it over a chair. He starts to roll up his sleeves while watching me, which makes me nervous.
“Do you want a drink?” he asks me.
I shake my head slightly. “No. That’s okay.”
He shrugs and walks into the kitchen area. He opens a cabinet and takes out a bottle of whisky. I watch as he pours himself a drink, admiring his strong arms and his deft hands. When he has his drink, he sips it and walks back over to me.
“Why do you think we’re here?” he asks me softly.
I blush a little bit as the image of his vibrator in my pussy, his plug in my ass, and his cock in my mouth comes back to me.
“You said I have to… you know.”
“Say it.” His voice is smooth and calm, and his smirk drives me insane.
“Earn your forgiveness.” I’m dripping wet, buzzing with excitement and desire.
“That’s right.” He takes me by the hair and pulls me toward him, wrapping his arms around me. “How do you think you can do that?”
I shake my head slightly. “I don’t know.”
“What will you do for me?”
“Anything.” My heart is beating so fast.
“Anything, hmm?” He shakes his head. “I don’t know. I already have your virginity.”
I blush even deeper. “I’ll do anything,” I repeat. “Just tell me what you want.”
“Okay.” He steps back. “Take off your clothes.”
I bite my lip. “Right here?”
“You’re going to do as I say, Erin, if you want my forgiveness.”
I nod my head once, working up the courage. I pull my shirt off, step out of my pants, and finally slip out of my matching bra and panties. When I’m finished, I’m standing in front of him, completely exposed and naked, my clothes in a pile at my feet.
He throws his drink back and puts the glass down on an end table. He walks around and around me, admiring my body. I’ve never felt so utterly and completely exposed, even when I had my legs spread wide open for him.
“You’re beautiful,” he says softly. “You know that? Absolutely fucking beautiful.”
“Thank you,” I say, trembling.
“But you’re nervous. And a little scared.” He smirks at me. “You should be.”
“Why?”
“Because there’s one thing you haven’t given me yet.” He steps close to me and takes my hair in his hand again. His other hand slowly moves down my body and I gasp as he spread my legs open. I’m dripping wet as he dips his fingers into my pussy and slowly rolls them up along my clit.
