She laughed. “We’ll do it after we check out the human club.” She really loved dancing and she wanted to know if maybe human clubs would be the best way for them to go when they wanted a night out to dance. Humans wouldn’t know what they were, most likely.

Then they finished dressing, petted Princess goodbye, and headed out to Dane’s truck. Matt gave Dane a call on Bluetooth. “We’re dressed, have picked up the ladies, and are on our way. What about you?”

“We are too.”

“Good. We were afraid you might have gotten sidetracked,” Matt said.

Everyone in the vehicle laughed.

Dane and Jacqueline smiled.

It wasn’t long before they all arrived at the Stardust Club. The exterior was a stone building with a big green metal roof, lights in the shape of stars all outside the club lighting it up, a fountain with a fish pouring water into it sitting near the entryway. Inside, they found a couple of large tables to grab and pushed them together. Disco lights were flashing inside, and the building was atmospherically dark. Everything was a western theme in there, including the serving staff who were wearing blue jeans, red and white gingham shirts, cowboy boots, and cowboy hats.

Lasso ropes, cowboy hats, boots, paintings of cattle drives hung on the walls. The furniture was all heavy oak. It was a fun place to go.

They introduced Jacqueline and Dane to Denise, Kelsey, and Sandy. They soon had drinks and started dancing. They were having a great time.

“Hmm, you are such a great dancer,” Jacqueline said to Dane.

“You bring out the moves in me,” Dane said, holding her close, dancing to the beat, turning her on.

When she had danced with Van, it was like they were two separate people, doing their own thing. But with Dane, they were dancing nice and close, like they had been forever, like this was where they belonged. He made her feel sexy and desirable. And she could feel where she was arousing him. But then her teeth began to elongate, and she felt embarrassed. Why would they do that now? She didn’t want him to see that her teeth had come down or he might think she was mad at him.

But then they finished their dance and they returned to their table so they could drink their cocktails and she hoped she could get her teeth under control. The others all joined them and ordered fresh drinks when a blond-haired guy came over to the table and asked Jacqueline to dance with him.

“Uh, no, thanks. I’m with my partner.” Jacqueline patted Dane’s arm.

“You are lucky,” the man said to Dane. Then he reached his hand out to Jacqueline as if she hadn’t just said no to him, his blue-eyed gaze focused on her eyes.

She picked up her drink and took another sip. She wasn’t going with the guy. None of them had their swords with them since no weapons were allowed in any of the clubs. Her canines were still extended, but she didn’t want to expose them to him.

Dane said, “She said no.”

Then the man turned his attention to Dane. He was just staring at him, as if he couldn’t believe that Dane would say that to him.

Then the man grabbed Jacqueline’s wrist and Dane was out of his seat before anyone could see his response. He slugged the man in the jaw, knocking him back and the guy lost his grip on Jacqueline.

Then suddenly, the man backed off, rubbing his jaw where Dane had punched him, frowning. “What are you?” Then he paused. “Hell, you’re hunters.”

Dane smiled, but his canines were fully exposed.

“My mistake,” the guy quickly said, and hurried out of the club.

“What was that all about?” Trey asked.

“I’m sure he was a vampire, probably looking for a blood bond, who was enamored with Jacqueline, and figured she was the perfect conquest. I’m sure he was trying to convince Dane and Jacqueline through vampire persuasion that she would dance with him,” Matt said.

“But then he thought they were hunters,” Ryan said.

“Yep, because he wouldn’t have been able to control them then, but then Dane had to show off his fangs,” Matt said, chuckling.

“I had to make the point that I wasn’t just a hunter,” Dane said.

She could have shown off her fangs also, but after her hot dancing with Dane, and then cooling off with drinking their cocktails, they were already back to their normal size. She was glad that they weren’t always long fangs at least. She was relieved Dane had shown off his fangs to the other vampire.

She smiled up at him and he kissed her. So much for safely going to a human club. But she realized that this was probably a place vampires would come to for a blood bond.

“I’m glad you showed off your canines,” she said to Dane.
