Deception (ON HOLD)

Chapter $ 3

I woke up to my alarm blaring. I picked up my phone and cut it off. It was 8 a.m. time to get ready for "work". I sighed sitting up, pushing the covers away from my body. I shivered as I got up forgetting to turn the heat on last night before I went to sleep. I went in the hallway and cut it on, then walking back into my room.

I looked through my closet for an outfit I would need and then walked to the bathroom to shower. I turned on my stereo as I got in. The music blasting loudly, I danced while I washed my body and my hair. I was out ten minutes later and got dressed in a busty lingerie set that had the stockings that clipped at the thighs.

I put on some red heels and tussled my hair with some mousse' to make it curl up. I put on some liner and mascara along with some red glossy lipstick. I eyed myself in the mirror, approving my apperance and sprayed some perfume on. I looked at the time it was 8:30. Time to find my first suspect. I grabbed my gun and bag.

I walked to my front door and grabbed my keys. I threw on my long black trench coat and opened the door locking it behind me. I was about to get in my car when I heard someone call my name.

"Jhene!"

I instantly knew who it was. Ryan. I tried to act as if I didn't hear him but somehow he ended up right by my car door.

"Whats up ma? You trying to avoid me?" a smirk creeping up his face. I couldn't help but smile at his handsome face. He was wearing a suit with a red tie. Damn.

"Hey Ry." I smiled.

"Oh so you giving me a nickname now. I like that." he laughed.

"Yea but what you want I'm gonna be late." I said looking at my phone.

"Just wanted to speak. You lookin good in them heels."

I smiled "Thanks. You look good yourself."

"I try." he blushed. "Well I'm not gonna keep you. I gotta head out too."

"Ok. I'll see you."

He nodded and started walking to where ever he came from quickly.

I closed my door and started my car turning the heat on. I went to the same parking deck as yesterday to park my car in the hotel's lot. I got out taking everything with me and walked into the hotel lobby. I walked up to the front desk when I was spoken to.

"Hello Jhene. How are you this morning?" Trisha asked.

Trisha is always here at the front desk and she's seen me here everyday for the past six months. I'm a usual here but she doesn't know what I do. She just thinks of it as using the room for a couple hours and thats it. I don't even really have to ask, she just hands me the room card and I pay the fee. Its the same suite every time.

Why don't I just stay here you ask? Well for one I don't like hotels as a living place. Two this is a busy hotel and three I don't need anybody in my business if something was to ever go down with one of the guys I meet up with.

"Hey Trisha. I'm fine how are you?" I asked politely.

She smiled "Good. Its good to always see your pretty face."

"Thanks hun." I blushed.

"Well here you go." she said handing me the key card.

"Thanks." I gave her the money grabbing the card at the same time.

"Your welcome. Have a nice day. See you tomorrow." she smiled waving. I waved back and walked up to the room.

I put all my stuff down inside and got everything in place. I then took the elevator down and proceeded to go outside. I was walking down to the part of downtown that I always saw men I knew had money walking by. Usually on their lunch breaks or just happening to walk by. I would always come up with something to get them interested or they would simply come up to me.
