Chapter 10

Tommy waited expectantly for James’s answer to his question.

James gave himself time to formulate a response by slowly sipping his coffee then repeating Tommy’s question. “Do I think you’ll ever see Burke again?”

Tommy nodded. He already knew the answer, but he thought he’d ask anyway. Maybe just to rub the reality in his face and make him get it through his head that there was no happy ending here. Not for him and Burke. Childhood dreams were just that—dreams that had no place in the adult world.

“Honey, I...hell. Don’t make me be cruel. I’m not good at it.” James offered out more coffee and booze, but Tommy shook his head. He was feeling comfortably numb at the moment, and he didn’t want to go further than this. “Burke does what he does because it’s who he is.”

“Does he live around here?”

“I’m not at liberty to get into that.” James’s eyebrows knitted together. “Please don’t hurt yourself worse. It was what it was, and now you need to let it go. Move on, Tommy. You’re young, handsome, and you’ll have more offers than you’ll know what to do with after tonight.”

“Offers?”

“Oh, honey!” James patted his thigh. “A guy like you who can look like you do while getting his freak on is a valuable commodity in this business.” James turned, opened up the top drawer of the desk, and extracted a stack of business cards. He set his coffee cup down so he could flip through them. “This one.” James handed it out.

Tentatively, Tommy took the card. It was heavy, cream-colored paper with just a name and a number. “Not very informative.”

“He’s the biggest BDSM participant procurer in California.”

“But I live here in Colorado.”

“Well, sweetheart, you have to go where the work is.” James grinned. “Just call that number. You’ll probably get a secretary, but she’ll give you an address where you can audition.”

“And that would be...?” Tommy had no clue what he would be asked to do.

“After taking a good look at you, and perhaps interviewing some of the people who saw you tonight, he’ll set you up with an experienced club Dom like Burke. You’ll do the same thing you did here, live, in another venue with a small audience. Once you prove your mettle, the sky’s the limit.” James winked. “Trust me, sweetie, there’s clubs all over the US, but you’ll likely start in California.”

“Does Burke have a procurer?” Tommy asked, tapping the cream-colored card.

“Burke is a special case. A business unto himself. He works exclusively with Vasco, and he sets up his own shows.”

“How did he ever get started doing this?”

“Don’t make a face like that.” James retrieved his coffee cup and sipped. “There’s no shame in doing what you love for a living, right?”

“Right.” Tommy nodded. It was rude of him to cast aspersions when he didn’t really know anything about the business these people worked in.

“Burke got started just like you did, I suppose. He saw a live show, enjoyed it, then came down to interview with Vasco.
