“You know, I feel like I know so little about you despite how much I think about you. Sometimes, I’m worried that I’m making up a fake version of you in my head,” Delilah says, cuddling close to me after nearly two hours of passionate sex.

“I don’t talk about myself a lot, especially not with women,” I reply.

“Why not? I feel like you can probably get any woman you want. There must be someone who knows all of your secrets,” she replies with a slight chuckle.

I know she’s just curious to find out about other women I’ve been with, at least the ones who have known me like she does.

Even though she knows me better than anyone else right now, there’s still a lot I haven’t told her. She knows about my life in the States, the businesses I run, and the fact that the club is just a front for laundering money.

“Is that how you got involved with the mafia?” she asks, absently stroking my arm.

“Yeah, but it isn’t how you think it is. I watched my father get the shit kicked out of him by loan sharks because he pissed away all of our money on a bad dog fight. I saw how those guys intimidated my father, how much power they had over him, and I wanted that. I hated feeling so helpless and unstable all the time,” I recall.

“But you were just a kid then. Did you form your own gang or something?” she asks, sitting up a little as her interest is piqued.
