“I’m looking for a blonde. She came in shortly before I did,” I tell the waitress when I sit.

She leans in close, the way they do in loud places like these. “Was she wearing all black? Black pants, black turtle neck?”

“That’s the one.”

“You’ll see her in a minute.” She tilts her head toward the stage. “Can I get you a drink while you wait?”

“Water.”

Her brows arch, but she nods. “Water it is.”

I’m hyper aware of everyone around me. With Scarlet nearby, I have to be. Hence, water instead of alcohol.

The stripper currently on stage finishes her dance and exits. Then, the announcer comes on to present the next one.

“Tonight we have a little surprise guest for you. Someone we don’t get to hang out with often. She’s a good friend of ours and she’s promised us one dance. We take what we can get. Everyone, give it up for Peaches!”

The song Closer by Nine Inch Nails begins to play loudly and the crowd goes wild as a blonde dressed in leather pants and corset over a sheer black turtle neck suddenly appears. Scarlet.

She sways toward the center pole, spinning on it a few times. Though she remains dressed, the way she undulates as she dances seductively, entrances everyone. When she turns to the audience and drops down slowly onto her knees, her green gaze catches and locks onto mine.

Her red lips pull into a smile that could bring most men to their knees. Fortunately for me, I’ve got a smile that renders most women helpless too.

Slowly, she comes down the steps, her eyes on me the entire time. I let myself take her in, her fit body in that tight-as-a-glove outfit. It’s got no room, but I’m sure she’s armed. A knife most likely. That only makes it hotter.

She stops in front of me, her smile widening. With her palm on my chest, she forces me to sit back to make space for her. Then she straddles me, and fuck, how can someone so evil smell so good.

“Hello, Peaches.”

“Why, I do declare, it’s Gunn with two Ns,” she says in a southern accent. “Don’t tell me you came all the way down here for little ol’ me.”

“Just for you, baby.”

Her arms come around my neck as she begins to dance on me. “I’d ask if that’s a knife in your pants, but I can tell you’re just that happy to see me.”

I give her my most wolfish grin. Of course, I’m hard. Hell, I’ve been like this since I saw her ass in those pants. “What can I say, sweet peaches. The thought of your neck in my hands gives me a hard on.”

“Oh come now. You’re going to hurt my feelings.”

Groaning when she grinds her core over my dick, I say, “I’m going to do a lot more than that. So why don’t we take this somewhere private. You don’t want witnesses to your demise.”

“My demise!” She throws her head back and laughs.

When she looks back at me, her amused smile is still there. I return it because she amuses me too.

Then she does something that surprises me, and makes my cock go from a bulge, to fucking steel.

Licking her lips, she runs her fingertip over my left dimple. “I’m going to lick this before you die.”

My mouth goes instantly dry. “I want to hurt you.”

Scarlet leans in, pressing her breasts to my chest, and whisper-moans in my ear, “I might let you. But you’ll have to catch me first.”

And because I love the chase and the thrill of the hunt just as much as the kill, I let her go, giving her a head start.

This is going to be fun.
