Page 36 of Hayden's Stalker

“Not at all,” Tatiana says in an even tone while she continues to look at the club in front of us. “But if you really care about his safety, you’ll let me focus on it.”

Sebastian laughs and says, “Well, this has been fun. There’s nothing more enjoyable than seeing Blake get put in his place.”

“She didn’t ‘put me in my place,’ asshole.”

“If that’s what you think,” Sebastian says with a smirk.

“Can we talk about something else, please?” I ask my friends, desperate for this conversation to end.

“Sure. How about we go dance?” Blake asks me.

I turn to look at Tatiana and ask, “Can I do that?”

“Are you shitting me? You’re askingherforpermission?” Blake growls.

I didn’t think of it like that, but I know that Tatiana has rules for my safety, and I want to stay safe as much as I can.

“Well, I was going to say, ‘of course,’ but now I’m tempted to say ‘no,’” Tatiana says, sounding amused. She turns her gaze to mine and concedes, “Of course, you can. I’ll stay nearby.”

She stands and leads the way to the dance floor. People look at us as we make our way out of the VIP area to dance, but I ignore them.

I wrap my arms around Blake’s waist as we start dancing, and we haven’t been dancing for long when he gives me a look. “Tatiana is very attractive.”

“What’s your point, Blake?” I ask.

“You want her.”

I grit my teeth and frown at him. “She’s my bodyguard. All I care about is that she keeps me safe from my stalker.”

“If you say so.” He sounds unconvinced, but I’m grateful when he drops the topic anyway.

We dance for a while before Sebastian passes us, and I raise my eyebrows as he starts dancing with Tatiana. After another couple of minutes, Blake wraps his arms around my neck and kisses me passionately.

I pull him closer to me and explore his mouth with my tongue as we kiss. His body is hard against mine, and I can feel his erection growing. I’m lost in the lust and ecstasy that comes with this, and we kiss for a while before we stop.

Blake presses his lips to my ear and says, “I’m going to worship your cock when we get home tonight.”

“Good to know,” I tell him with a grin as I slip a hand between us to quickly rub the bulge in his jeans. “You know I love when you do that.”

“You’re going to have to stop if you don’t want to fuck right here and now,” Blake says in a husky voice.

I kiss him again before I say, “Fine. I’ll stop.”

We dance for another couple of songs, and both of us have managed to tame our erections by the time we leave the dance floor.

“I need a drink to cool down…in more ways than one,” Blake says with a sexy smile at me as he takes my hand, and I signal to Tatiana that we’re leaving the dance floor.

We get to the bar and order our drinks. I order Tatiana’s virgin Tom Collins for her, then turn to look at her.

“Is that what you wanted? I should’ve asked, sorry.”

“That’s perfect. Thanks, Hayden.” She gives me a beautiful smile, and I smile back at her before we all head back to the VIP area.

We sit with Gabriel and Harrison to talk as we enjoy our drinks. I’m sweaty and feel exhilarated from the dancing. Blake’s promise for later rings in the air around us, and when he offers to get drinks for both Tatiana and me, I’m glad that he seems to be making an effort for once.

“What do you want, Tatiana?”

“A virgin Tom Collins,” she tells him.
