Suddenly, the lights changed to blue and purple. The song “Mouth” by Bush came over the loudspeakers. The thirty-foot pillars moved above, lowered slightly as the roof opened over their heads to reveal a kneeling woman on a pedestal between two men.
“Who’s ready for some action?” A deep voice purred over the loudspeakers. The crowd screamed. Excited energy swept around the two of them.
Nico heard Autumn’s indrawn breath as she looked up at the triad overhead. Her fingers clutched at the red material of her dress. Nico noticed her nipples bead as the bright lights flashed over her briefly.
He moved closer, standing behind her, placing his hands on her hips. Nico told himself it was for protection, but he knew better. He watched Autumn bite her lower lip and throat bob as she swallowed.
His lips twitched as he glanced toward the ceiling. It turned his analyst on watching the woman suck one man’s cock as the other guy fucked her pussy with his fingers.
Nico slid both hands up and down Autumn’s hips. At first, she tensed beneath his hands as if remembering where they were.
“Relax sweetheart, enjoy the show.” He ended his words by nipping at her ear.
She let out a gasp this time.
Nico pulled her more firmly against him, so her ass rubbed against his front. He hissed through his teeth as she rubbed against the ridge of his hard cock.
The moan overhead brought his head up. The woman on the pedestal was now on all fours. One man took her from behind while the other tweaked her nipples. A loud moan came from the three performers.
Nico’s cock throbbed behind the fly of his pants. He rubbed against Autumn. The dress slid slightly up her legs. Another inch and he could lift the material to expose the thong he bought to go with the dress.
A whimper sounded, but it didn’t come from the stage. Autumn’s hands clutched the tops of his. Her neck arched, eyes closed, and her lips were slightly parted.
With his taller height. Nico could lean down and kiss her.
“Come with me, Lothario.”
Nico’s eyelids flickered before they finally looked at where the low voice came from.
Blue Navarro stood with his eyebrows raised to his hairline as his gaze flicked over Autumn, then back to Nico. He motioned with his head towards the back, then disappeared into the crowd.
“Playtime’s over, sweetheart.” He grabbed one of Autumn's hands and slid through the ocean of onlookers as the scene above played out.
Was it the music or Scala’s touch that made her forget why she was at Cat Tail’s?
Maybe because you haven’t had sex in a few years?
Autumn ignored the droll voice as Scala towed her through the crowd. They walked around the bar and down a hallway away from the crowded dance floor.
When they arrived at the club, Autumn knew where they were going. She didn’t want to be among all those people. It brought back memories of her kidnapping ten years ago.
Fox’s appearance was unexpected at Hale’s. She was out with her friends to celebrate Tanner’s promotion.
“Is that little Autumn?” Fox Winters was an attractive man. Autumn always felt uncomfortable around him, starting with the man putting her on his knee at six years old and stroking her hair.
Autumn’s lips tilted up in a slight smile. “Fox, I’m surprised to see you.” Her eyes narrowed. “Did Dad ask you to check up on me?”
Fox blinked back at her with a clear, innocent gaze. “Nah, I had a client out here in Seattle. How are you, Red?”
“I’m fine…” she looked behind her. Tanner and his boyfriend pressed up against each other on the dance floor. Autumn nearly rolled her eyes. It would take a while before they could unglue themselves from each other.
“Have a drink with me.”
Autumn turned back to Fox. He watched her with curiosity, and his eyes had that eerie light in them.
“You know, I’m…”
“Your friends are a little busy at the moment.” There was a hard edge to his tone. Fox drained the glass and set it on the bar. He held up two fingers to the bartender. He turned back to Autumn with a boyish smile. “Come on, just for old time’s sake. Tell me how school is going.”
