Her cheeks burn, and my lips twitch. “Don’t go thinking dirty thoughts now.”

She crosses her arms over her chest. “I’d like to go to my room.”

I take a moment to let my eyes trail over her body.

“I don’t have a boyfriend.”

“Eager to set the record straight on that one, huh?”

That earns me another scowl.

I take another sip of my drink. “So, you’re not just a princess; you’re anIvy Leagueprincess.”

Riley says nothing, but the anger in her eyes tells me that I’ve touched a nerve.

My penthouse has four bedrooms, two on either end, but I choose the one furthest from the master bedroom for her.

She might be the daughter of the enemy, but she’s also a walking pair of tits, and I don’t need the temptation.

I come to a stop outside her door. “Don’t touch anything that isn’t yours. And don’t get too comfortable. I don’t plan on you being here long.”
