Cute Creepy Concierge - in Canada!

[CarolinePar]

:patriot:Recently I went across the border for an overnight trip to Canada.
Since I moved to the northwest it’s only a two-hour trip.
Anyway we check into a really nice place that had a super tiny lobby and that needed your hotel key to really get anywhere. Try to wrap your head around this for a moment. The only way the elevator worked was you had to scan your hotel key card to work the elevator - even if it stopped on another floor you had to scan it before it moved again.
Anyway we arrived late, my mom paid for the suite so that she could have the bedroom and I could have the couch bed. She was so “exhausted” from the trip from Seattle she decided she was going to take a little nap.
Fine.
I wanted to see what this place had to offer for over two hundred dollars a night.
I slid my card and was on my way to the 16th floor - supposedly a spa and an unmatched view of the city.
Well, the view I saw had nothing to do with buildings.
Somewhat perverted of me I know but this tall pretty guy - looked like a dancer (wink, wink) was on the elevator too. He had a basket of boxed, wrapped candies and “welcome to the hotel” flyers
I jokingly said that it would be too easy for him to play roulette with them.
That is one out of X would be poisoned and he wouldn’t know who it was until someone didn’t check out when they were supposed to. He had a kinda creepy smile as if I had divulged his secret.
“Actually,” he said. “These are part of a promotion that one of the conventions that are staying with us - one of them has an expensive piece of jewelry in it.” And he gave me one of the boxes!
“and if it doesn‘t..?” I asked.
“Just some expensive chocolates.” then giving me a wink he stepped off the elevator to make another round.
Unfortunately I did not win the special box but I did call the phone number inside the box for the company who put the boxes together.
“I’m with the convention staying at the ****** Hotel and just had a sample of your candies. Could you tel me how much to purchase some for my return trip home?”
Apparently bull is easier to swallow over the phone.
“Actually,” the voice informed me in an eerie tone of I-couldn’t-tell-if-it-was-female-or-not. “Those candies are part of an exclusive line only for weddings and conventions. They can be purchased in similar boxes like you received with your choice of ribbon starting at seventy-five dollars per…”
I tuned the voice out for a moment.
Seventy-five dollars for chocolate?
And the concierge just gave me one?!
“How many may I put you down for Miss…?”
“Smith,” I said. “I‘ll be in touch after this evening‘s banquet. Thank you.”
Later, when I saw the cute guy he broke away from his post long enough to ask me if I’d “found anything?”
With a wink I answered “just the best service in Vancouver!”
