A tall,
olive-skinned woman with short spiky hair wearing a crimson top and
matching miniskirt talking to the vampire bouncer by the elevator. She
was just inches away from the guy. A dim light green radiance seemed to
be glimmering off her eyes. The vampire bouncer with all his mass of
muscles did nothing to stop her when she whisked by him and got into
the elevator.
Turning on his heels toward the back of their VIP area, Dyam
spotted Joel, who was now enjoying the redhead’s mouth on his cock. His
friend was not going to like him very much, but they had to find out what
the fuck was happening.
‚Joel, we gotta go.‛ Joel didn’t even flinch. Dyam tried again. ‚Joel,
something’s not right. We gotta go.‛
This time, his friend opened one eye. ‚Dy, buddy, this is not a good
time.‛
‚I know, but I think there’s a jungle animal inside this nightclub.‛
Okay, even he could see the insanity of his remark.
‚What?‛ Joel sat up straight but did not motion the girl off his cock.
‚What do you mean there’s a jungle animal in the club?‛
‚She was getting inside one of the elevators. I think she is going to
the third floor.‛
‚She?‛ Joel asked, with an impish smile on his face. ‚Dy, my man,
it is probably the remains of your Cherokee inimă begging for some
release.‛ Joel leaned back on the couch with his hand on the girl’s head,
encouraging her to go deeper.
Joel was probably right, but Dyam could not shake off the certainty
of what he had sensed. Deciding he could not just sit around and forget
about it, he started toward the elevator. The bouncer was still on the same
spot.
‚Did you see who she was?‛ Dyam asked while checking which
floor the elevator had stopped on.
The bouncer looked at Dyam, blinking fast. ‚Who?‛
‚The woman, the tall woman, wearing a red top and mini who had
just passed by you.‛
The bouncer looked up to the nothingness and smiled broadly—he
actually smiled! Dyam was overwhelmed by a smell of fresh rain on
autumn leaves.
‚Oh, that woman. Yeah, she said.
What a waste of space he was.
Taking a deep breath, Dyam walked past him and took the stairs.
When he reached the door to the third floor, he stopped and unlocked his
senses again. Yes, she had been there. Opening the door slowly, he put his
head out into the hallway and checked the surroundings. The coast was
clear. Closing the door soundlessly behind him, he scanned the long
corridor. There were only four apartments on that section—a true
testament of how exclusive that part of the nightclub was. A small
pathway at the far end lead to the south wing. The area was dimly lit by
long amber lights. The black carpets and crimson walls added a ‚what
happens here, stays here‛ feel to the decor.
Dyam took a few steps to the right with the intention of checking
the doors for suspicious sounds, but the soft thud coming from the south
wing stopped him midway. Silently, he started toward the sound, but
when he got to that section, it was empty. The smell of rainforest was
stronger there. Following it, he realized the scent draw a direct line
between the fire exit, located at the end of the corridor and one of the four
exclusive apartments on that wing. Looking up to see which door it was,
Dyam’s heart went straight to his mouth.
It was Hikuro’s private quarters.
Without a second thought, Dyam burst inside the room, his knife
steady in his hand, ready for battle.
Hikuro was sprawled on the floor by the couch, motionless. Fuck!
He scanned the room for potential attackers hiding in the shadows; then
he went to check on his friend. Hikuro’s head was still attached to his
body.
Thank the Soartas .
Dyam released the breath he had not realized he was holding and
tried to wake his friend up. Nothing. Hikuro was out cold. That was when
Dyam saw a small envelope on his lap. Pulling his phone out of his back
pocket, he
