Jett
Even though I knew what Jett and I had wasn’t a relationship, it sure as hell felt like one.

“Tootse,are you sure the dress is supposed to fit like this?” I asked, as I tried to cover up my girly bits.
“Yes, now stop fidgeting.”
“I feel like people can see my ass, can they see my ass?” I asked while spinning in circles, trying to catch a glimpse.
“No, just relax; you’re all secure.”
I took a look at all the girls and it was hard not to stare. We all had our hair pulled back and in long ponytails, airbrushed black masks just around our eyes with crystals glued around the corners, and we were all wearing black, floor-length silk dresses with dangerously high diamond heels. If someone stole us off the street, we would be worth a shit ton of money, given the amount of diamonds dripping over our bodies and attached to our feet.
Everyone had their own style of dress. Francy was pulling off the Grecian goddess look, Babs’ dress crisscrossed in the front, with a little key hole giving everyone quite a view of her cleavage, Tootse’s gown was strapless with a high slit and Pepper’s dress was a halter style Marilyn Monroe type dress, giving her a total sex kitten look. I was the only girl who was barely covered, literally.
My dress, if that’s what you wanted to call it, had a neckline that should have been considered a crotch line, because basically that’s how far it dipped down. There were two strips of fabric that barely contained my breasts, but the rest was open and flowy. The only reason I didn’t have a nip slip was because Tootse put tape near my breasts so the dress didn’t fall to the side. The strand of diamonds holding up my top draped down to the silk fabric that came just above my crack, exposing my entire back and possible side boob, scratch that, I knew there was side boob. The dress gave me no chance to wear anything underneath, due to the choice of flimsy fabric. No, I was naked, uncomfortable, and praying to God that the fabric didn’t have a mind of its own and slip past where it was supposed to be.
“Can I ask why I am the only naked one here?”
The girls looked at me and then smiled; they were in on something, and I didn’t like it one bit.
“Looks like you’re excited for tonight,” Pepper nodded toward my chest.
I looked down and, lo and behold, my nips were erect and ready for a good time. There was absolutely nothing I could do about it . . . nothing.
They laughed as I said, “I hate you all.”
“Jett is going to kill you,” Francy said to Tootse, who only shrugged her shoulders.
“He might, but I can’t wait to see his face when he spots Lo.”
I ignored the comments they made and fidgeted with my dress as we waited to be called out. It was going to be a very long night of making sure my dress stayed intact, because right now it seemed like it was being held together by a thread.
Kace came sauntering back to our dressing room in a black suit, white shirt and black tie. My mouth watered at the sight of him. Even though he drove me crazy most of the time, I could admit when I saw a hot man in a good suit and good fucking God was he a hot man in a good suit.
His eyes met mine and they perused my body. Heat enveloped every last morsel of my skin as his eyes blazed up and down, resting on my breasts longer than they should have. He cleared his throat and looked away.
“Alright, remember, you’re here to do one thing and that is gain members. You are not to talk to the men or interact with them. You’re merely walking statues. No drinking,” he paused to look at me.
“What? I know how to hold my liquor,” I responded with indignation.
Everyone snorted with laughter as he continued, “No eating; food will be catered for you later and absolutely no stopping to talk to each other or anyone else. The only people you’re allowed to communicate with are me and Jett, if he approaches you. Got it?”
“Yes,” everyone chimed in.
Kace looked over at Tootse and asked, “Is that dress going to hold up?” He pointed with his thumb over to me.
“Up until the moment Jett rips it off of her.”
Kace made a grunting sound as he waved for us to enter the ballroom. I was last in line as we filed out. Nerves tingled up my body as I tried to concentrate on the task at hand. A warm hand was placed on my back just before I was about to walk out and Kace whispered in my ear, “If anyone, and I mean anyone, comes up to you at any point in time, you tell me. You got it?”
“What do you mean?” I felt a little nervous now.
“I mean there are a lot of dangerous men out there tonight. I will keep an eye on you, but if anyone tries anything, you let me know immediately.”
I nodded my head as I tried to tamp down the feelings Kace stirred inside of me. His breath caressed my shoulder as he looked me over one last time, sending a bolt of desire through my body.
