“You won't get attention from the man you want with your butt in the air, Little Fox,” he growls.His chest is still against my back and I can feel it rumble.
My cheeks heat at the nickname.Storm’s always called me Little Fox and I never knew why.I’ve asked him several times, but he just chuckles and walks away.
“She got your attention.Are you saying she shouldn’t want it?”Roxy places her hands on her hips and arches a brow.She doesn’t take crap from anyone.She doesn’t care if Storm is the VP.She says it like it is and doesn’t care.I wish I could be more like her sometimes.
“She deserves better than me.Honestly, she deserves better than everyone in this place.”
“I'm glad we can agree on something.”Roxy holds his stare for a solid ten seconds before she rings a bell behind the bar and cups her hands around her mouth.“Pay up and get out!”
“C’mon, Roxy!It’s not even eleven o’clock!”One of the guys from the club calls.
“Exactly!I want to go out and I can't do that if you’re all here.You have five minutes or I'm adding it to your tab with interest!”
There are a few murmured comments about her being evil and how this isn't fair, but most of the guys toss cash on the bar before filing out the door.They know better than to argue with Roxy.They know Chopper will stand up for her and they’ll get nowhere.
Where Storm is the VP and next in line after Dad, Chopper is Storm’s right-hand man.The men look up to him, even with his younger age.He’s only twenty-four, but he’s made a name for himself in the club, especially with being a third-generation member.Dad and Chopper’s dad were best friends.After he died, Dad took Chopper under his wing and taught him everything he needed to know.
I think Dad liked having someone to pass things down to.I think that’s why he loves Storm like a son too.He was blessed with three daughters, or at least that’s what he says, but I think he secretly wanted sons.Someone he could pass this place onto.
“Where are you two going?”Storm is still pressed against me and at this point, I'm getting tired.I lean back against his chest and stare up at him.When I sway slightly to the side, he places his hands on my waist to keep me steady.
“McHugh’s.”Roxy smirks, knowing the guys hate that place.
McHugh’s is more like a dance club and less like Savage.They can't sit around and drink because the place is always packed.They say the guys are idiots and the girls are scared of them, but I think they don’t like it because they can't dance.
“Why do you have to go there?”Storm groans.
“What does it matter to you?No one is asking you to join us.”Her hands are back on her hips and this time she’s glaring at him.“In fact, we’d rather you didn’t come.When you do, none of the guys will dance with us because they’re scared of you.”
“Good, that means I'm doing my job,” Storm growls.
“A job no one hired you for.”I point my finger in the air like I'm making a very important point.
“Exactly!We didn’t hire you!”Roxy perks up at my comment, hoping it will help her argument.
“You know I need to keep you safe, Rox.”Storm’s voice softens.He’s a good guy and I know he isn't trying to ruin our night, but we don’t always need someone watching us.
“Safe and blocking us from guys are very different things.”
“Do you have a particular guy in mind?”Amusement fills Storm’s tone and I don’t need to look at him to know he’s smirking.
“Obviously not.”Roxy rolls her eyes.
“Then I believe it’s fairly impossible for me to block them.”
“Whatever.Are you paying your tab or am I tacking on interest?”She arches a brow, daring him to keep going.
“I’ll pay, then I’ll grab my car.”He slaps some cash on the bar and doesn’t let go when Roxy grabs for it.“I’m driving you to McHugh’s”
“Storm,” Roxy groans.
“No, Dixie’s already tipsy and I'm not letting some guy take advantage of her.If you want to go out, I’ll allow it, but I’ll sit and make sure you’re ok.I won't interact with you or anything, unless you need me to.”
“You’re like a big brother, only worse.”
“How am I worse?”
“If I had a brother, I’d love him at least a little.I don’t really love you so you’re all the negatives and none of the positives.”
