“You’re lucky you didn’t die, damnit,” Layla cried. “Don’t ever do that to me again!”
I looked at Doc. “Are they both going to be okay?”
“Yes. Burns will scar, but he won’t need skin grafts or anything. Sin has a hard head so he’ll be fine.” Sin flipped Doc off and Layla hit him. “Layla likes me more, remember that.”
“Sin, shut up before Doc steals our girl.”
CHAPTER 58
KADENCE
I’d been in Westhaven for almost four months now, and I couldn’t help the feeling of being watched. I think I was paranoid, or maybe it was because I was a stripper and people watched me all the time? My dad wasn’t here, Dom wasn’t here. No one from my last life knew where I was. And if they did, they wouldn’t think to look at a strip club.
My confidence in the last four months of working at Hades increased tenfold, but everyone from before would remember Caden, the insecure woman who wouldn’t be caught dead stripping. Kadence was different.
I still had my insecurities, but no one made me feel bad about my weight besides myself. When I danced, people loved it. People wanted private dances and admired my body. The only person who still had issues was myself and my brain. Years of toxic relationships did that to a person, and I hated myself for allowing it to happen.
Sometimes I wished I could go back in time and knock some sense into myself.
It didn’t matter now.
I had a second chance, and damnit I wouldn’t let anyone take it from me.
“Hey, girl.” Everly walked up to me, pulling me from my trance. I was working at the bar tonight.
I gave her a smile, swirling my drink around in my glass. “Hey.”
“So I wanna apologize for being a total cunt before. I did some self-reflecting, and I guess I was salty that she fucked you so quick. I guess I have feelings for the grouchy bitch.”
I shrugged, biting the inside of my cheek. “It’s fine. It was a one-time thing anyway. You’re all good. No hard feelings, promise.”
“Okay, good,” she paused before saying, “so how would you feel about dancing with me tonight?”
I looked up at her. “Uh, I don’t have anything planned, but I don’t know your routine.”
“I need you to sit in a chair. I’m basically going to use your body for my routine. At one point in the dance my pussy is going to be in your face, so I want you to lick me.”
My eyes grew wide. “I’m sorry?!”
“I’ll have my panties on. Besides, if you really want a reaction from your lover girl, do it. If Blaize really has feelings for you, she’ll react to you with me.” I poured back the glass, finishing the remainder of my drink to give myself liquid courage, and nodded. This would be a bad idea, but I didn’t care. It shouldn’t matter what I did because Blaize wouldn’t care. Hell, she probably wouldn’t even watch the dance.
Everly took my hand and pulled me to the stage, sitting me down in the metal chair in the center as her song came on. She slipped out of the little black robe covering her arms, letting the lace material fall to the ground before she circled me, her hands lightly grazing my shoulders. I already knew Everly could dance, and she made it intense.
The first show I saw at Hades was her and one of the other girls. The two of them were on the verge of fucking on centerstage, which made me wonder if they hooked up that night, because I know I would’ve been frustrated after that.
Earned Itplayed loudly through the speakers, but all I could really hear was the beating in my chest. She sank down on her knees, opening her legs for the crowd before popping back up. Everly leaned down, shaking her ass in front of me to the beat of the music. Her lace top came off before she spun on her heels and straddled my lap. Her lips were millimeters away from mine as I dug my nails down her back while her hips moved against mine to the music. I could hear the crowd in the background, and they were enjoying this.
She looked at me and nodded, before she leaned back, kicking one of her legs over my shoulder and arching her back at an ungodly angle so her pussy was in my face. My tongue licked her lace-clad pussy from clit to center, and to add a little extra razzle dazzle, I used my teeth to pull her panties down before using my hands to take them completely off, tossing them to the side.
The crowd went wild.
She pulled herself up, her drenched pussy on my thighs, her eyes wide with surprise as I licked my lips. I wasn’t expecting to do that, and I didn’t think she was, either. Everly gripped the back of my neck, pulling my hair slightly before she slammed her lips against mine, grinding her pussy into me. That took me by surprise as both our hips moved to the music.
I didn’t even realize the music had stopped when she released my mouth. “You did fantastic. That was better than I thought it would be.”
“It was hot as hell. You did all the work, basically. I was just here enjoying the show like everyone else.” She kicked her leg off me and grabbed her robe, her eyes looking at my wet thigh.
“Uh, I guess I got a little excited. I’m sorry about that.”
