Every move you make and every vow you break
Every smile you fake, every claim you stake, I'll be watching you
Every move you make, every step you take, I'll be watching you

I'll be watching you.

JP Pov.

"So, Miss Nyda, shall we start?" I said. 

She turned her eyes back to me after quickly observing the room. 

"You have a nice office, Jasper." 

A comment I wasn't expecting, I feel like she tried to take me by surprise, but I know better than to let that happen.

"Well it's a good thing you noticed, someone without proper taste wouldn't have seen it. Now let's get back to the deal. You have been the owner of the establishment 'Expensive Girl' for some time now and yet you have no employees nor have a proper advisor to help you."

 I hope she understands what I'm trying to say.

"You're insisting I take you as my advisor?"

 And as expected she did understand. 

"Not necessarily advisor, more a righthand. I'll be providing you with the money and employee you need. In exchange for something only someone in your line of work can provide me with." 

I received a sharp look from her, she knows what I'm talking about and yet seems unsatisfied.

"Is there something wrong with my offer? you don't like it?" 

"In fact Jasper, I don't see why you need it, you're rich and have plenty of access to thousands of courtesans if you want, for me to borrow you some whores that make their living off of having sex with desperate men don't seem like the kind of whores you need and I already have a perfectly well functioning right hand for your information."

My mouth made an 'o' shape, Nyda was smarter than I thought, even though I had always admired her she was never available to fulfil my endless desires. 

Now she's no longer being mutilated by that bastard Aron I have an actual chance if she takes my offer. 

"I actually meant more of a friendship, rather than fucking your whores for free."

Right then she choked on her spit. 

After she was done chocking she opened her mouth 

"So you'll provide me with anything I need in exchange for friendship?"

"Yes."

"Why?" 

Why really, why do you need to know, I'm literally giving you money to be my friend.

"Why would you want to be friends with a girl that one, doesn't have money, two, can't offer you anything back and three, where did you get the idea to work with me, we didn't even know each other until today."

Shit, shit, SHIT. Why does she have to be so smart, why can't she just do as I say and take the offer? 

I could sense anger rising inside me. I should've played this better. 

"Well for one and two, your friendship and company are enough of a reward to me. As for number three, you don't know me, but I know you very well. At least if Aron's stories about you were true."

Now I caught her attention.

"What did he tell you?" Her tone was sharp.

"We were former acquaintances, I knew him as a puny kid who sold drugs turns out he was a lot smarter than expected. He reeled in quite some money for me. Every month when he came to hand over my share of the money he made, he shared some stories about you. How good you were in bed, how sweet you moan every time he would thrust into you. Also, how much of a pain in the ass you were, how stubborn you are, but that also how beautiful and smart you are. Those are just a few things he said."

She looked to the side for a bit and spoke again while avoiding my eyes,

"you shouldn't believe what that bastard tells you."

She looked out the window. Somehow I felt a bit sad about her words, she seems really damaged.

If I want her wound around my finger I should play this clever, she seems the only one who peculiarly interests me.

First I become her friend and maybe if I play this right and with luck on my side, she'll be mine.
