Prologue
In the beginning, I
used to feel guilty when I seduced a married man.
I used to feel
dirty when I kissed them.
I used to feel
ashamed when their wives divorced them.
But now I feel nothing.
I am not to blame.
I am merely the
catalyst.
I am the loaded
gun.
I am the honey trap.
Chapter
One
I focus on his
wedding ring right before I close my eyes. His eager lips meet mine and I can
almost taste his excitement. My mind goes into distraction mode as his tongue
darts in and out of my mouth.
Tonight is what we
call a half trap. This is where our clients are satisfied by photographs of
their boyfriends or husbands kissing another woman. We wear a wire at all times
so they also receive a recording of their partners planning to go home with us.
Most women believe that planning to cheat is just as bad as actually cheating
but some women need more. Some women refuse to believe that their man would
actually go through with it. In other words, some women are stupid.
A full trap is
where we take the men back to our place. Only, it's not our place. It's actually an apartment which the Honey Trap Agency
(HTA) rents. Waiting inside are their scorned girlfriends or wives and
sometimes the occasional lawyer. We also have an agency bodyguard on standby just
in case things get heated but usually the men are too busy begging for
forgiveness.
Our safety is a priority. If it's a full trap then we always
insist on ordering a cab. Our driver, who is actually another bodyguard, will
be parked up around the corner. They take our call then wait for five minutes
before picking us up, which is always from a public place. On the rare occasion
that a man insists on driving or calling their own cab, we end the trap and
only charge our client for a half trap. We make a lot of money but nowhere near
enough to put ourselves in any real danger.
I finally pull away when his hands begin to work their way
down my back. I open my eyes and watch him for a moment, looking for any signs
of indecision or guilt but they don't come. This guy's willing to go all the
way. He smirks. "Wanna come back to my place, darlin'?"
I'm pretty sure he doesn't want to take me home to talk
about the weather but I ask anyway for the recording. "What have you got
in mind?"
He leans closer. "Have you ever had a multiple
orgasm?"
I stop myself from rolling my eyes. "No," I reply,
feigning innocence. Guys love the whole virginal act.
"Then I'll be your first."
Only in his dreams. If his wife doesn't leave him after
tonight then they deserve each other. I grin seductively. "Let me go and
freshen up first. I'll be back in a minute." I wink at him before walking
away, swaying my hips as I go.
As soon as I step inside the restroom, I reach into my purse
and take out my mini bottle of mouthwash. I always use too much but I like how
it burns the taste of them away. After successfully numbing my entire mouth, I
remove my wire and place it inside my purse just as the door opens. One of the
agency photographers walks in and checks that we're alone before stopping in
front of me. "Are you okay?"
I nod. "Did you get it?"
"Of course I got it." She takes out her camera and
scrolls through several photographs. The first few are close-ups of his face so
he can be clearly identified. The rest are shots of us kissing.
I call my boss as we both exit out of the back. "It's
done."
