“Man, those two are going to turn this club upside down. I’ve never seen any of them this taken with anyone.” I was almost certain Flirt was right.

I waved them ahead of me and pointed to the table that was empty, “You guys go sit and order, I’m going to go ahead and make my rounds to stop this mine and our shit.” I started for the bar, and their laughter followed me. Fuckers.

‘Our girls’ were repeated by Stem and Frankie, then I pushed through the door to the kitchen and saw Perry at the sink washing a few dishes. When he heard the door open, he turned.

“Speed, good to see you, son. You claiming my girls?” What the fuck? Did every man who came in contact with those two fall or what? I was going to have a mile long list of asses to kick,MYgirls had lived here for a while.

“Perry, good to see you. I have a list of asses to kick, don’t make me add you to it. I’m going out to have a beer or two with my friends, maybe get to seeMYgirl while she works.”

“Sucked you in already, have they?” He chuckled and stuck out his hand. I laughed and took his hand to shake.

“One hundred percent.” Perry turned back to his dishes, and I walked out to join my friends.

We’d sat at the table for about an hour before she walked out of the office and I watched her make her rounds to her people. As I watched her, I didn’t have to say anything to know I was going to be a lucky bastard when she accepted that she was mine. Then I thought of Ally, ‘that’s a bad word’ deal.

“What the hell you smiling at, brother?” Devil nudged me, then followed the direction I was looking.

“Seriously, man, you are a goner.” Hell, no sense in lying.

“I know, and I’m man enough to admit it.” He shook his head.

Lindy stopped by to see if we were ready for another round, then went to the bar to fill our order. I watched Sami go back in the kitchen, and by the time she came out, Lindy was on her way back to our table. She’d just stepped between me and Flirt to set the beers down when Sami looked over and saw me. She continued to walk through, only she avoided our table and was at the other side talking with Roscoe.

Huh, what the hell, she had smiles and laughs for him, then when she looked back over toward me the smile went away. Oh hell, something was off. She finally walked toward me as Lindy walked off.

“Everyone doing okay tonight?” The guys acknowledged it was going great, but they didn’t turn from watching Syn start her routine.

“Come here.” I watched her eyes flash as she looked at me.

“I don’t think so. Have a good evening.” She went to walk past, and I stopped her with my hand on her arm. She looked down at it then back to me.

“Excuse me, could you remove your hand?” Oh yeah, something was up, I’d find out, but I wasn’t going to make a scene so the brothers could watch.

“Sure, you’re working, I get it.”

She rolled her eyes and walked off. She’d be lucky I didn’t spank her ass when I got to her house tonight.

“Wow, you sure the ‘my woman’ is understood by her. ‘Cause if she is like that in bed—you’d have to fuck her with long johns on.

“Shut up, Coast.” My brows pulled together as I watched her head back into her office. I was going to see what the fuck was going on and stop it before it got any worse. I pushed back my chair and started for her office. Yeah, we were going to have a chat.

Sami

He didn’t knock, hejust walked right in and shut the door behind him. My expression had to be one of shock when I heard the lock slide into place. His facial expression one of a man who was pissed. When his mouth opened, I was more than ready.

“Want to tell me what crawled up your ass?”

“No, go see if Lindy will talk with you.” He had no clue what I was talking about from the look he was returning.

“Watch the attitude, darlin’. Don’t want to turn that soft pale ass bright red.”

“Sure, to do that you would have to be in my bed. You won’t be, so it’s really no concern of mine.”

“Ah, I don’t think you understand what is going to happen.”

“I understand perfectly. But Lindy would probably accept it, maybe even reciprocate with a blowjob.” I flipped my hair over my shoulder.

“Heard about that, did you?” He acted as if that was acceptable.
