His Destructive, Toxic Love (Jasper and Eliza)

Eliza swayed gracefully in her flowing gown, her bold makeup only enhancing her allure. She never expected to run into Casper here. As she danced, her heart pounded with anxiety, worried he'd recognize her. But he seemed engrossed in conversation with the man beside him, barely glancing her way. That helped her relax a bit.

The dancers were giving their all, and the men around them were busy toasting and clinking glasses. After a few numbers, Mr. Young pointed at Eliza and said to Casper, "Mr. Casper, this is the new girl. Look at that glow! And that waist-so slender and soft. I got a closer look last time; her touch was unforgettable..."

Mr. Young licked his dry lips with lingering desire. "She's a real delight and perfect for sharing. Mr. Casper, we're pretty laid-back here. Feel free to touch, kiss, or whatever you like with them. If you want to take her for the night, that'll cost extra."

Patting his chest with bravado, Mr. Young added, "But it's just a bit of money. If you fancy her, it's on me."

Casper, holding his drink, glanced at the dancing Eliza again. His look was brief before he turned back to Mr. Young, "Have you been with her?"

"Not yet. If you're interested, she's all yours first."

Casper suddenly laughed, clinking his glass with Mr. Young's. "Then I must thank you, Mr. Young."

"Think nothing of it."
