Brandon Silver knows there’s more to life than dealing blackjack at the Bellagio Casino. He hopes his lover, Seth Cahill, can help him experience more of the world. Seth does this by showing him how to run an easy scam. They target an older woman, Brandon distracts her, and Seth takes advantage of her distraction by robbing her. It seems like an easy enough plan.<br><br>Except they target Caryn Westbrook. A woman with her own agenda. At the top of her agenda is to teach the two young men a lesson they will never forget.

After standing at the entrance for a few moments, feeling overdressed and out of place, he decided to be pro-active, and crossed over to the bar. Caryn wasn’t waiting for him there, either. He ordered two pi?a coladas—making sure his was a virgin because he still had to go back to work—and perched on the stool at the end of the bar, where he could survey the area as he waited for Caryn’s arrival. After the first nervous sip, he really wished he had ordered one with alcohol. At least that would calm his nerves, and possibly make him more suave and attractive than he actually felt.


Brandon knew one thing for sure. The next time they did something like this, Seth would be the one in charge of distracting the mark.
