“I want you to meet a developer and his extremely shy little minx.”
Oh crap.My throat became dry and if I could become one with the couch, I would.
“That is unnecessary,” Lucian tried.
“No, he plays a lot of games. Believe me, one endorsement from him will make your game the best of the year. You really need to meet him.”
I grabbed Lucian’s arm.
“It’s time.” The guy at the door said and Isaac laughed. “Saved by the bell,” he said in a strong Southern accent and smiled as a deep dimple showed in his cheek.
“Let’s go.” Blake smacked his hands and said goodbye in a flirty tone to the blonde, breaking my heart even more.
“Break a leg, babe,” his dragon replied. I didn’t like her. She was everything I wasn’t, even if I looked like my mom.
Isaac leaned over the armrest where Lucian sat. “I’m not that stupid, Chris.” He swiped at Lucian’s shoulder. “Great disguise.” His eyes flickered to me. “Nice meeting you, minx.” He winked and walked backward to the door and saluted Lucian.
Lucian flipped him off, which made him roar with laughter. They were out the door.
“Okay, you want to leave?”
“He knows?”
“Yeah, I basically told him when I gave him the birdie. I can’t fool Isaac, the guy always discovers it.”
I nodded, and we got up. My gaze skidded to Blake’s dragon, and she stared at me.
My throat became dry as I looked away and followed Lucian to the entrance. Did she know? The crowd went crazy outside. The guitar strummed, and the drums played. Blake grabbed the mic and yelled to the crowd a string of words. They screamed.
We slipped out of the club. It was fun while it lasted.

BLAKE
Isaac grabbed me just before we went on stage. “Lucian is here with her?”
“What?” My stomach flipped.
Isaac laughed. “They are in disguise. I called you over. Why didn’t you come?”
“Are you sure it was Lucian?”
“Dead fucking sure. He flipped me off when we left.”
“What did she look like?”
“She was in disguise. So not blonde hair and green eyes.”
“The brown head?” I remembered scanning over them when Tabitha spoke to me.
He nodded.
“Fuck.” I pulled my hands through my hair.
“Hey, calm down.”
“He could’ve told me he was bringing her. That fucker has an agenda.”
