EXCERPT
Just as I
was thinking about heading over to The Box to check on things over there, a
blonde I hadn’t seen there before claimed the stool next to me. My previously
dormant libido came roaring back to life as I took in her curves. They were
shown off to perfection in a top that had almost no back and plunged down the
front to just above the swell of her tits, cuffed shorts that barely covered
her ass, and strappy black sandals with four-inch heels. Her blond hair flowed
down her back to just above her bra line would be—if she’d been wearing one.
She was the
hottest woman in the club, and plenty of other guys had their eyes glued on the
vision next to me. Not that she seemed to notice. Her attention was completely
focused on the bartender who leaned over to take her drink order. “A vodka soda
with a splash of grapefruit juice and lime, please.”
Her raspy
voice had my cock pressing against the zipper of my dress pants. I leaned
forward to hide my visible reaction to her, and the bartender’s gaze slid my
way. I tapped my empty glass of water to let him know I needed a refill. Then I
gave a discreet nod in the blonde’s direction to let him know her drink was on
me. The bartender’s raised eyebrows and slack jaw reflected how shocking of a
move it was for me. I’d given out hundreds of free drinks on the house to fix
customer service issues in the years I’d worked with Andrew, but I couldn’t
recall a time when I’d paid for a woman’s drink out of my own pocket while I’d
been on the clock.
The blonde
didn’t seem to notice. Her attention had shifted to a row of booths to our
right, and I glanced over my shoulder to try to figure out what had grabbed her
attention. When I spotted one of the guys at the last table staring back at
her, I wanted to shift to the side to block his view of her. I was starting to
wonder if she’d come to the club for him when the blonde shifted in her seat
and muttered, “At least they keep it warm enough in here to make up for how
skimpy the waitress’s outfits are.”
I wasn’t
able to keep back my bark of laughter at her comment. Her head jerked in my
direction, and bright green eyes narrowed at me as she snapped, “I wasn’t
trying to be funny.”
My gaze
wandered down her body and back up again, and I enjoyed the fuck out of the
close-up view of her beauty from the front even more than the side. “C’mon.
You’ve got to admit it’s at least a little bit humorous considering your outfit
covers less than what the waitresses are wearing.”
Her pretty
green eyes narrowed, and a hint of color filled her cheeks. “Yeah, but I’m not
working. If I decide to dance my ass off, at least I won’t sweat it off. Plus,
I can wear whatever the fuck I want. It’s my choice, but I’m almost positive
none of the waitresses picked out that pale blue uniform. I’d be willing to bet
it was a guy who made that decision, and I’m one-hundred percent against
gambling.”
I held up my
hands in a sign of surrender, my own cheeks filling with heat since she’d
nailed it on the head. Even worse, I was the guy in question since the final
call on the uniforms for Ice had been made by me. Luckily for me, the bartender
had perfect timing and slid our drinks in front of us. Her attention shifted to
him as she dug in her purse and slid a twenty across the bar to him. He pushed
it back at her and said, “No worries. The boss already has your drink covered.”
She turned
back to me and groaned, “Well, shit. I just put my foot in my mouth, didn’t I?”
I flashed
her a grin. “Maybe a little bit.”
