“Thanks.” Glancing back at his office at the sound of his landline ringing, he turned to us. “I have to take that.”
“I should get back to work, anyway.”
“Yes, you should.” Ian scowled.
“Thank you, gracias, and grazie!” I called after him.
“Shut the fuck up, Chance!” He didn’t bother to turn around as he disappeared into his office, slamming the door.
“You’re such an ass.” Amber giggled, elbowing my side.
Wrapping my arm around her, I escorted her into the hallway, coming to a stop in front of the elevator. “Sooo—”
“Obviously, I don’t get off work for a while, but if you want, we can talk after?”
“I’d love to watch.” I pinned the inside of my cheek between my teeth, picturing her naked body moving to the music, even if it was for other men.
The doors to the elevator opened, and we stepped in. Once they closed, I took her hands in mine. “What I was trying to say earlier in the private room was—”
She withdrew one of her hands, pressing a finger to my lips. “Not here, please.”
I cocked my head, peering into her sparkling eyes.
“You’ll make me cry and I still have to shake my ass for other men.” She snickered.
Chuckling as the doors slid open, I put my hand against the side, letting her exit before me.
“What time is it?” She reached into my pocket, taking my phone out.
“Time for you to give me a private dance,” Alejandro’s accent rumbled over the back of my shoulder, making every hair on my body stand on end.
Amber jumped when he spoke. We both turned to him. She checked the time on the phone screen, slid it back into my pocket, then squeezed on to my shirt so tightly, I felt the fabric gathering around her fist.
He grinned. “Just as friends, of course.”
She held her head high, remaining professional. I tried so hard to hold my tongue, if only for her sake. I’d never been jealous of her taking her clothes off at work. We both had jobs that required us to get naked. I always assumed I’d be weird about it and even gave Jenna a hard time when she first started working here. The customers wanted Amber, but I was the only one who got her. It made me proud to think of her bringing other men to their knees.
Until now. I didn’t wanthimto see her naked. Though it might have been my current assumptions about how close they’d gotten while I was away, something was… off. I didn’t trust him.
“Friends don’t take their clothes off for friends,” Amber said in a sarcastic, yet playful tone.
“Fine.” A laugh rumbled deep in his throat. “Then consider me a paying customer you’ve never met.”
“She took her clothes off formewhen we were just friends.” I smiled.
Amber’s pleading eyes begged me to stop. I shrugged, leaving them standing there together. I knew she’d probably have no say in the matter. She had to work and if I’d stood there another second, I would’ve thrown that fucktwat through a wall.
“Chance!” she called after me, but I ducked into another hallway, leaving her and Alejandro to their private business.
AMBER
Damnit. Alejandro’s timing couldn’t have been worse. I didn’t want Chance to walk away and leave me alone with him, but I knew he would’ve probably fought him, and I didn’t want that either. I led him down the long hallway to a private room.
Instead of sitting on the couch or a chair, he backed me into the corner, placing his hand above my head. His breath reeked of rum, mint, and cigars. Swallowing hard, I began to feel anxious. His eyes appeared different now, as if he were possessed.
“When I saw you dance tonight for my friends, I couldn’t wait for it to be my turn.”
Twirling out of the corner, I cackled nervously, meandering to the center of the room. In an effort to keep some distance between us, I stepped onto the platform in the center, hoping he’d sit down and relax.
