Wendy laughed. “I wouldn’t mind seeing yours either. We could slide and slither against each other.”
“That’s an image that’s making my cock wake up.” Bones chuckled low in his throat.
Wendy giggled, and her long nails, painted a hot pink, thrummed against the back of one of the wicker chairs.
“When it’s ready, come find me.” She winked, flipping her silky hair over her shoulder.
Wendy bent down low to pick up the beer can from the table, the angle offering the men a generous view of her cleavage.
“Fuck, you’re killing me,” Bones muttered.
“Do you want anything else, Shadow?” The club girl jiggled her big tits before straightening back up.
“Just the beer. Thanks.”
“Okay.” Another wink then she walked away, her rounded hips swaying slightly.
“Damn,” Bones said. “How the fuck can you give up the variety, dude?”
“Been there and done that more times than I can count.” Shadow shifted in his chair; he didn’t like talking about his feelings for Scarlett to his buddies.
“What’s up with him?” Smokey asked, pointing to Helm, whose leg still rocked back and forth.
“He tried the new stuff we’re producing,” Shadow replied.
Smokey guffawed. “That’s some strong shit. I smoked some last night in my room, and I was chair-locked for hours.”
“The club should make a shitload of money on it.” Shadow glanced down at his phone.
“That’s what Banger and Hawk are banking on.” Smokey plopped down on a chair next to Bones.
Shadow nodded while opening the text.
Scarlett:Everything ok?
Shadow scrubbed his face with his free hand. When his woman had told him about Warren’s dad threatening to hurt him, Shadow thought it was adorable as fuck that Scarlett worried and fussed over him. But now, five days and counting, her concern had started griping his ass.
Shadow:I’m fine, babe. U don’t need to worry.
Scarlett:I’m not. Just asking. What’re u doing?
Shadow:Sitting with Smokey & Bones. We’re watching a stoned-as-fuck Helm.
Scarlett:Sounds stimulating. Hehe.
Shadow:How was ur lunch with ur dad?
Scarlett:Good. He didn’t raise his voice once or bring u up. Wonder what he’s got up his sleeve.
Shadow:Maybe nothing. Don’t worry so much.
“Here you are.” Wendy rubbed her ample chest against his arm as she set the beer can in front of him.”
Shadow glanced up. “Thanks.”
“I brought you some mixed nuts because I know how much you like them.” She threw him a warm smile.
“Thanks again.” He looked back down at the phone.
