Her cheeks redden. “Thank you, glad you think so.”
Once we’re in the car and heading out of town, Everleigh glances over at me. “You’re gonna love this place. It’s only an hour away, and unlike anything you’ve ever experienced before. Oh, and I already booked us a hotel that’s within walking distance too.”
“You do this a lot?” I ask. Though I wonder what kind of wild things Everleigh’s done in her past, I also don’t want to hear about her being with other men. I’m shocked she was able to get a room at the last minute.
“I like to have a good time,” she confirms. “Since most of my friends are responsible adults who are married with kids, I often go out alone. Meet up with people online.”
“Online?” My brows shoot up to my hairline. “That sounds dangerous. You never know what kind of psycho you could meet.”
She laughs. “Oh, I’ve already met a few. It’s just really hard to find single people in Lawton Ridge. Plus, I don’t want my personal business spreading around town, which is why I prefer to leave.”
“It’s kinda nice knowing everyone, though.”
“Yeah, but it can be a nightmare too. When I’d get in trouble at school, my grandparents would know before the last bell rang. It’s just hard to keep secrets around here.”
I smirk, thinking about a young Everleigh causing all sorts of havoc for her teachers. I can only imagine how much of a handful she was.
“Then there was this time when I needed a pregnancy test because I was late. Spoiler alert, it was stress-related. Anyway, I had to order it online because I knew if I dared to get it from the grocery store, the rumor mill would start before I even peed on the stick. So, there’s also that. It seems charming, and most times, it is unless you want to keep things private. Then everyone’s up in your beeswax.”
“Yeah, I guess I never thought about those sorts of things. Thankfully, we don’t have anything to hide,” I tell her, the words lingering on my lips while I try to bury my feelings.
It doesn’t take long before we arrive at the club. The parking lot is packed, so Everleigh and I check into the hotel first, then walk over. We wait in line outside, and the cool air swirls around us. As soon as Everleigh shivers, I wrap my arm around her, knowing she loves my body heat. She looks at me and flashes a smile, her ruby-red lips taunting me. Eventually, it’s our turn to go in.
I’m not sure what I expected when I walked in, but it definitely wasn’t a country bar. I’ve been to a lot of different places in Vegas, but this is on another level. A dance floor occupies the middle, and a bull-riding area is across the way. I can hear high heels and boots shuffling against the wooden floor as people line dance. In the back are pool tables and what looks like darts. It’s incredible.
“You like it?” she asks enthusiastically, and I think I hear her Southern drawl thicken. It’s sexy as fuck.
“Love it!” I shout over the music, placing my hand on the small of her back as we sit at the bar. I can’t help but want to be close to her and let every man in here know she’s with me. She’s by far the sexiest woman in this saloon, and although we never established we were exclusively dancing with each other, I’m not sure I can watch someone else’s hands grab her waist. I’ve never been much of the jealous type, but when it comes to Everleigh, I selfishly want her all to myself.
The bartender comes over and immediately starts flirting with her.
“What’re ya havin’,beautiful?” He cocks a brow after blatantly staring at her tits.
Everleigh leans in closer to him and smirks. “WhatshouldI be having?”
My heart rate increases as I sit quietly, trying to act unfazed. If she’s trying to make me jealous, it’s working.
“For you, sweetheart? A screamin’ orgasm,” he tries to mumble seductively in her ear, but I overhear him. Watching someone with no game is sad. I wonder how many times he’s already used that cheap pick-up line tonight.
Everleigh laughs and politely plays into it. “In that case, I’ll take two.”
I can’t help but think back to the night her bed broke, wishing I’d been the one inside her, hearingherscreaming orgasm.
“What about you, buddy?” His demeanor changes when he realizes she’s not alone.
“Oh, I’ll take a blow job,” I say, straight-faced. An unspoken conversation flows between us, and I think he realizes I’m not amused by his flirting with Everleigh. With a head nod, he turns on his heels and makes our drinks.
Everleigh snickers. “Why didn’t you just say so? Could’ve helped you with that myself.”
I stare at her, unamused by her giving this asshole her attention. Though I’ve learned quickly that Everleigh is a little flirt.
“Loosen up,” she says, pinching my side and forcing me to squirm. “I want you to have fun with me.”
“I always do,” I admit.
A beautiful smile sweeps across her plump lips.
The bartender arrives with our drinks, and I pay.
