André
“Double down” André loved the thrill rushing through his veins. This game
was more fulfilling than the pair of busty brunettes on either side of him. The
glittery gowns he’d purchased for them accentuated their cleavage, but he
didn’t care about that anymore. Or the vibrating cell phone in his pocket.
Only the game mattered.
Life was no different than Blackjack: exciting at times, frustrating at
others, but ultimately the house always wins. Which is why André left all
responsibilities as Royal Price of Solana at the door of each casino he
entered. Life was about having fun whenever he could. The very motto that
caused his father to cast him out, and pass the throne to his younger brother.
Tulio hadn’t filled the headlines with philandering ways and irresponsible
spending. Those traits belonged solely to André.
Now here he sat, or at one of a dozen other casinos every night for the last
eight years. Either in Vegas, Monaco, Monte Carlo, Macau, or Dubai, each
one only left him searching for another thrill—an escape.
The dealer turned over another card on the gold felt in front of André,
eliciting a smirk from the half-drunken prince. A king—eighteen.
“Stay,” he muttered.
One of the brunettes—he couldn’t remember her name—nuzzled against
his neck.
“Not now!”
She threw him a scowl and sipped on her Cabernet.
The two women clutching his elbows reminded him of his mother, Queen
Esperanza, with their cascading ebony hair and tan skin. But as he’d become
more acquainted with them over the last few hours, the similarities were only
skin-deep. Now, he regretted buying their evening gowns at the resort
boutique. They’d hang all over him the rest of the weekend. Granted, he’d
asked Javier, one of his bodyguards, to arrange the transaction simply so he’d
have arm-candy through his stay.
Come on baby, gimme a thrill.
The dealer turned over the last card. A queen.
“Mierda!” André burst out, pounding the table with his fist. Over the rim
of his bourbon, he watched the dealer pull back $50,000 worth of his chips.
His ninth straight loss. At least the shame of losing was kept at a minimum in
the high limit lounge of the Bellagio in Vegas, with only a few other highrollers losing money around him. He wasn’t getting anywhere with this table.
Perhaps a new game.
He tossed a black chip at the dealer and split his remaining stack of chips
between the girls on either side.
“Here, querida. See how long you can make that last while I take care of
business.”
André pushed back from the table and adjusted his tie.
That should keep them away for twenty minutes. Enough to drain my
royal jewels and get more spending rocks.
