Introduction

I took a sip of my drink and then felt a presence beside me and I turn to look. "You don't give up do you," I stated. "No, I don't. You look like you need some company" He mocked. "Well, I don't." I reach for my purse in my bag and took out $35 dollars. "Hey, Steve, here's my bill. Keep the change." I smile as I place the money on the counter for the bartender to take it up. I turn back to my unwanted stalker. "I'm going home." "To an empty bed?" "No to my dog and her puppies." "So much better company than talking to me, I guess." "Oh, yeah. So much better."He shakes his head. "You have a great night," I said standing up from the stool. "How can I when you're not coming home with me?" he smirks. "If you look around there are many single, desperate woman ready to take your offer." "I don't want a single, desperate woman." "Well lucky for you, they are married women here as well."

Chapter 1

I quickly grab a drink from the server that was passing by and without thinking I put the glass straight to my head drinking all its content. I turn to look at my friend, Iris as she surveys the room with her eyes.

I sigh. "Why am I here again?"

Iris turns on her stool and looks me straight in the eye. "To support me," and she pauses then smile. "And to see if you can find yourself a good—looking man to bring home tonight."

I shrug. "I'm not in the mood to be bothered by a man tonight."

"Remind me, when was the last time you had sex again? Oh yea, sometime last year." I roll my eyes at her. "Girl, you need to get back on the train. You have been so miserable without a sex life."

Iris is wearing an off—the—shoulder ballroom grown. Her blonde hair full of curls bounced on her shoulders. Iris is the type of woman that a man didn't need to look twice on. Her beauty had them at Hello. She is a beautiful woman but along with her beauty she was also caring, loving and a real sweetheart.

"I think I'm happy."

I am happy.

I was just made Partner at one of the biggest law firms in New York City, Shepard and Gills. My dog just gave birth to four beautiful puppies. I have everything I woman could ever dream of. Well, at least everything.

She shakes her head and smile. "You think you're happy, but I think you're lonely. Ever since you broke up with Richard, it's like you lost all your fun."

I smile. "That's because that loser took my fun away but that doesn't mean I'm not happy."

She looks at me with raised brows, "You're not having sex."

I laughed at her. "Sex isn't everything Iris."

"Don't let Brandon hear you say those words because as far as we are concerned, Sex is everything." Brandon has been Iris boyfriend for four years now. They were the ideal couple. They lived together, share a cat and fish, they share bills, they had date nights. It was like they were already married, after all, they were doing all the things a married couple usually do.

"When you have a wonderful man like Brandon who has not only a fine ass body but good brains, of course, Sex is everything and plus you guys love each other. It's different when you're in love. It's not sex anymore."

She takes a sip of her tequila. "You're right, it's not just sex. It's hardcore fucking." She grinned.

I rolled my eyes. "That's not what I was implying. I was talking about making love. Isn't that what you people call it?"

"Yup, that's what we call it." I sigh.

A server stopped in front of me to offer me another champagne. I smile and take the champagne from the tray. "Thanks."

This time I decide to sip the drink instead.

"That's your fourth drink since you walked in here. Are you planning on getting drunk tonight?"

"No, that wasn't my intention but come to think of it, I might as well get drunk tonight because tomorrow is going to be one hell of a day."

"Big case?"

"Huge case, Senator Reid."

She laughed. "I'm sorry but I think you might just need five more drinks."

I agreed with by my nodding my head. Senator Morgan Reid was convicted of stealing five million dollars from charity to fund his mistress's plastic surgery. As his lawyer, it was my job to get him off the hook even though all the evidence were showing that he did indeed steal five million dollars.

The noise started settling down a bit when the speaker came on the microphone trying to get everyone's' attention.

Iris turned to me, her cheeks pink. "It's my time."

"Go out there and shine." I pat her on her shoulder as she stands up from her chair.

The crowd started cheering when the speaker said, "Let's welcome on stage Ms. Iris Francis, who was voted last year for being the most successful female entrepreneur. Please clap your hands as this beautiful woman take her stand on the stage."

When Iris reached on the stage, everyone calms down and starts listening to her. With a smile on her face, she begins her speech. "I thank everyone for coming here tonight to celebrate the opening of this new enterprise..."

I laugh and clap while she made her way off the stage. As she walks down many people stopped her to engage her in conversations. I smile and place my attention elsewhere. I start looking around the room to see if I could spot anyone I knew, and It did, but they weren't people I liked so I continued sipping my drink.

"Hey,"

I turned my head to the direction of the voice. "Hi,"

"My name is Mark. I see that you're a friend of Ms. Francis. Are you in the business world as well?"

I wasn't liking the direction in which this conversation was heading. In fact, I didn't like this conversation at all.

"No, I am not. I'm just a regular woman."

He smirked. "There is nothing regular about you" he was trying to sound seductive, but it wasn't working. I have now gotten used to men like that, they have no ability to phase me. If I don't like a person when I just meet them then there is no way in hell I'm going to like them after.
