章 61: Chapter 61

“Besides. When my special guests are here, they’re as if they were my lovers, except we don’t touch each other because there’s no interest. Thatin and of itself is not illegal. In fact, they’re grown adults who give each other consent, so there’s nothing illegal about that at all.”

“But you’re payingme.”

“Yes, but not exclusively tied to sex. It’s a weekly allowance for being a willing lover.”

Lover? Oh, right. That must have now included me. I balled my hands into fists to continue fighting the sexual pain, thinking up whatever conversation I could to help ignore it. “What about my apartment, the rent?”

“I can buy your way out and have you off the lease as soon as possible.”

“I just signed the renewal, though.”

“And?”

“Oh.” Wow. That would be lotsof rent money in one payment.
