“Okaaay, and why in the fuck were you with him? Are you sleeping with him? Fuck, you are, aren’t you? I was totally right.”
“I’m not fucking him, Clancy,” I say, rolling my eyes. “Girl, seriously, that is not a man I would want to fuck, let alone fuck with. Not to mention his girlfriend, Grim, is not someone you’d want to cross.”
“Grim?” She wrinkles her nose at the name.
“Yep.”
“Right, well shit. Then why were you in the car with him and why were York and Zayn so fucking pissed about it?”
“I’ve got a new job at Grim’s club. I’m no longer working at Rocks.”
“At herfightclub? What are you, a ring girl?”
“Nope. I’m going to be dancing at the club. Grim has hired me to dance with her other…dancers.” I refuse to call them strippers, not because I dislike the term but because in my eyes they are dancers.
“In a fight club?” Clancy looks confused. I mean, if the shoe were on the other foot I would be too.
“Yep. She’s trying to broaden out into a different kind of entertainment. Balance the fighting with dancing.”
“Well, shit. How did you get that gig? More to the point, why the fuck haven’t you told me about this before now? You’re such a secret squirrel.” She grins, nudging me with her shoulder to show me there are no hard feelings.
“Zayn, he put in a good word,” I lie.
“Then why was he so pissed about you being in the car with Beast?”
“A misunderstanding, mainly, but also because Dax is fighting Beast at Tales. On my first night on the job, actually. Dax and Beast don’t get on...At all.” I pull a face.
“Shut the front door!” Clancy chokes on her salad. “Dax is going head-to-head with thatbeastof a man in an underground fight club! Will it be filled with criminals?”
“Yeah, lots of them.”
“Well, shit. I’m gonna need front row tickets. Bitch, I can’t believe you didn’t tell me about this sooner! This is gold!” she laughs gleefully. “Give me a badass gangster any fucking day.”
“Clancy, they’re dangerous people.”
“I know. Such a fucking turn-on.”
“I knew I shouldn’t have told you a damn thing,” I say, shaking my head.
“Fuck that. Now, what have I got to do to get tickets?”
“It’s invite only, Clancy.”
“So, invite me!” She grins widely.
“I work there. I don’t have that kind of sway.”
“Figure it out because I’m coming, preferably on some badass gangster’s cock!”
“Oh, sweet Jesus.”
Clancy bursts out laughing, and I can’t help but smile. Despite that, there isn’t a chance in hell I’m getting her tickets to attend. I do not need another person I care about mixed up in that world.
No. Fucking. Way.
“So, your birthday. I never got a chance to tell you what I had planned…” I begin, grinning in earnest now, but my grin fades when she winces, pulling a face.
“About that…”
