Honestly, Sasha had no respect for herself… I’m just glad that I didn’t have to comply. I eventually decided to not care about her… Instead, I found a nice seat to relax with my best friend and gaze out onto the city of Vegas. The light of the restaurants, hotels, bars and Casinos resemble the fireworks light at the new year’s eve from my distant view. I couldn’t help but wonder what events were happening within the buildings. Were the people talking, laughing, partying and gambling, or spending time with the one they love.

, and the sounds that escape through the closed windows of the car, resonate inside me "right in that empty space in my chest. No wonder Vegas is known as the city of fun. Even during the day, when there are no lights and not so much movement on the most frequented avenue, you can still feel how much this city is loved and appreciated by its visitors and residents. I almost regret having waited so long for a visit. Fifteen years, to be more specific.

“Are you enjoying your holiday here with this James person?” I chuckled. “I’m not really here on holiday,” I said. “My brother had a bit of trouble, and I’m here to help him. We’re both from Mystic Spring, New Hampshire.” “Oh, I see,” she said. “Las Vegas isn’t really a city where your dreams actually come true, is it? It’s more of a tourist city where men come to gamble and do prostitution.” She blushed and looked desperately angry at the same time. I understood where she was going. Sin City was famous for those two things, wasn’t it? Of course drugs as well.

Between spending another night dwelling on her issues with Mason and the potential problems of being seen with Damon, or dancing until her body ached in a questionable nightclub, perhaps the second option was better. "Alright, then. Let's go to the nightclub's grand opening," Arabella closed her notebook. "I will swing by home and change before." Why would anyone be in Las Vegas if not to indulge in the best the sin city had to offer? What the books recounted, what the movies showed, what people saw... none of it represented Vegas as well as the Casinos, the nightclubs, and the dirty money. The city of sin, indeed, was not for amateurs. A few hours later, the women were leaving Arabella's ho

Zane joined me mid-flight, sliding into the seat opposite mine with the kind of casual confidence only a man who has followed you into too many messes can wear without shame, and he didn’t ask me why I needed this, because he didn’t have to, because he’s seen my patterns and he knows that I don’t chase leisure, I chase control, and sometimes the only way to feel in control again is to put yourself somewhere that demands your full attention. We landed in Vegas the way we always did, without ceremony and without delay, stepping out into heat and neon and that particular kind of artificial luxury that tries too hard, because Vegas is a city built on the belief that spectacle can replace substan

My mother asks and Hunter shrugs. “ It seems like he is eager to expand to Vegas.” I mean, who wouldn't? The business of mafioso strives in Las Vegas. Sex, drugs and weapon trafficking has its biggest base in that city. While Chicago is convenient for business growth, you have to be patient to build an empires.Vegas earns you a quick buck. That's why we have more cartels in Vegas than in Chicago. “ He is one greedy bastard. He is controlling more than half the city here and still wants more.” My mother snickers.

And then the man walked away from Lora, leaving her alone for a few minutes. 🇧🇷 The most luxurious cities in the United States were known for keeping busy lives and high amounts of money on the move. It was no different in Las Vegas. The casinos, even on Monday mornings, were open to voracious customers. There was no time to waste in Vegas.

She was as reckless as her mother had been when she was young, unconcerned about what tomorrow would bring. One of the best advantages of moving here was that she was much closer to Las Vegas than she had been before. It wasn’t that Eve was addicted to gambling, but she had always been very curious to understand the neurology of gamblers– she was fascinated by the minds of seasoned gamblers and yearned to understand their impulses and rationale. She loved wandering around the casino all day and watching gamblers of every shape and size as they rejoiced and mourned their wins and losses, respectively. Eve felt very free and comfortable here.

The city never went dark. That was the thing about Las Vegas that people who had never lived here didn’t understand. They came for the aesthetics and go back home sunburned and lighter in the pocket and tell people the Strip was something else at night. And it was. The Strip was a performance, it was Las Vegas putting on its most expensive outing clothes.

“And this may not be the best venue to discuss it, after all. Castelli, a conversation with me, or the LVPD?” I swallowed hard, and it did nothing at all to clear the tightness in my throat.

But I’d come to Las Vegas on a gamble, after all, hoping my skill with cards would be enough to bluff my way through the line of credit I knew I couldn’t pay for. The police, jail, all the horrors and indignities of the criminal justice system—those were known quantities. I mean, I didn’t know what would happen, but I could take an educated guess.
