up.”
    He dragged her down the hall, and then she felt him nudge her down a staircase. Her mind couldn’t keep up with what was happening. What exactly had just happened?
    She tripped down the stairs, unable to keep her footing without her sight.
    “Blaze? Please...” she pleaded as she stumbled down two more stairs, her voice full of fear and panic.
    “Not now, I’ll explain later,” he panted. Noelle could hear the heavy footsteps of the other men ahead of them. She knew it would be only a matter of time before people came after them. Either they would be chased down the stairs, or security would be waiting at the bottom of the staircase.
    Suddenly Noelle felt a burst of air, and she stumbled onto what felt like concrete.
    “Come on,” Blaze yelled, picking her back up and dragging her forward.
    Noelle could tell that they were outside now and she staggered blindly next to Blaze, terrified.
    She shrieked as a half dozen loud, roaring engines fired up next to her.
    “Just motorcycles,” Blaze muttered, propelling her forward. “Try to climb up,” he said gruffly, throwing Noelle over something hard.
    “What?”
    “Hold on!”
    Horrified, Noelle reached forward and felt Blaze in front of her. Another loud roar filled Noelle’s ears and with shock, she realized that she was on the back of a motorcycle. She reached out swiftly, wrapping her arms around his waist, just as the motorcycle tore out onto the strip.
    The wind whipped at Noelle, and she squeezed tighter around Blaze’s waist, afraid that she might fall off at any given moment. Her hair blew out around her and she felt like she was getting whiplash from the wind.
    “What the hell is going on?” she yelled, now finally able to form a coherent phrase. “Get me off this thing!”
    Blaze laughed wildly. “Didn’t you want to make two-hundred thousand dollars?”
    “What?”
    “That’s what I offered you! Two-hundred thousand!”
    Noelle shook her head, frustrated and confused. She could barely hear Blaze, and now the motorcycle was flying. She knew they were long gone from the Vegas strip, and long gone from the safety of her hotel room with Liz and Quinn.
    “You are fucking crazy! Where are we going? I want to go back to Caesar’s!”
    “I’ll take you back there later. For now you need to come with me.”
    “Take me back!” she screamed. Part of her was thrilled to be so close to Blaze, holding him around his tight abs, and she hadn’t forgotten how much she wanted to sleep with him. But whatever had just happened inside that high roller room was bad.
    If she wasn’t mistaken, Blaze and his crew had just robbed the high roller room at gunpoint.
    Noelle wanted to throw up. Was she an accomplice now? Was she going to go to jail?
    “I had nothing to do with this!” she cried frantically.
    “I know,” Blaze called back, “That’s why I said trust me and that’s why I blindfolded you. No more questions until after we get off the highway.”
    The motorcycle pressed forward, moving deep into the Nevada desert, and Noelle had no idea where she was going.
    She let the wind whip about her body as she clung to Blaze, her mind as crazy as the whipping wind. Hundreds of thoughts and questions swirled inside her head, and she hoped that he would be able to give her the answers that she needed. Yet the more she thought about what happened, the more questions she had. The thoughts made her dizzy with fear and anxiety. She craved the comfort of her bed, and the safety of her luxury suite overlooking the Las Vegas strip.

Chapter Five
    G ripping Blaze tightly, Noelle hung on as the motorcycle flew through the night. There was something exhilarating about feeling the world rush blindly alongside her. She felt like they were flying, and she pictured the layers of her old self falling off, spilling onto the road behind her, leaving nothing but clouds of dust.
    The motorcycle began to slow down, and Noelle squeezed tighter against Blaze as she felt their
