“Another one bites the dust,” Rob laughs, making up a couple of cocktails while I pull a glass of beer.
I give him a sidelong glance and feel myself smiling when I focus on Gretchen. She’s sitting at the bar with Levi for company, while I’m helping Rob, and the two other servers this evening. I couldn’t be happier. Her smile alone is enough to set me up for the day, in more ways than one.
Coughing to hide another laugh, he says, “I’m curious, though.” He pauses, composing himself, “If you’re wearing multiple condoms at the same time, do you feel anything?”
I go still and watch him trying not to bust a gut laughing. “Haha, very funny.”
“I thought so.”
I roll my eyes. “You’re still okay for Jaxon’s bachelor party tomorrow night, right?”
“Before you closed Kenza to the public, I was on shift, so it’s all good. Besides, I’m curious as to what your uncle Sebastian has planned.”
“God, don’t remind me.”
Rob laughs. “You haven’t said what the girls are getting up to.”
“They’re not. Poppy is asleep by seven each evening, so they’re going to do something once she’s had the baby.”
“Ah, okay.” Rob moves along, serving drinks.
Thinking back to the condom remark, I cringe because those words had left my mouth. I mean, when you have a sister and cousins popping out babies, it’s scary shit, especially when at the time of the remark I was still a carefree bachelor.
Rapidly blinking, I find a stacked blonde leaning on the bar toward me. “You’ve been staring at me.”
I frown.
Have I?
“Sorry to burst your bubble, but I was thinking about something else.” I smile. “What can I get you?”
“Are you sure you don’t want to play?” She pushes her boobs together and I’m happy to know the move does nothing for me.
Shaking my head, I pour her a glass of red wine. “On the house.”
Out of the corner of my eye, I notice a hand with sharp fingernails moving toward my wrist so, I quickly avoid her grip and move to the end of the bar. Levi laughs and Gretchen looks nervous.
“Everything okay, here?”
“I was going to ask you that,” Levi smirks. “You legged it over here as though your jeans were on fire.”
“Very funny. I wasn’t talking to you.” I lean toward Gretchen, wrap a hand in her long hair and bring her toward me. “I wasn’t aware that I was staring in her direction until she came over and pointed it out.” I brush a soft kiss across her lips. “I got lost in thought thinking about…things.”
“I be
lieve you.”
“But?”
“She’s stunning.”
Incredulous, I move out from behind the bar while quickly unfastening the apron, which I push it into Levi’s chest. “Take over for me. Back soon.”
I grab Gretchen’s hand and drag her down the hallway and into my office. The moment the door is locked, I push her forward over my desk, flipping the skirt of her dress up over her round ass. The black thong she wears is soaked as I pull it down her legs, forcing her to step out of it.
