Standing stark naked in my bathroom, I grinned down at my phone and pressed send. I knew she was out with her friends, so I had made sure to cover myself accordingly. Giving her the same type of photo she had sent me earlier. No text, just the image.

The grin on my face widened at the thought of what would happen if her friends were around when she opened the message. Would she even be holding her own phone? Either way, she would be blushing, cursing me because she had told me she was busy. Hopeful for a fiery response, I wandered over to the counter.

The night was still young and there was a club in DC that I needed to visit. See the local nightlife and gauge what would fit for my own club. My uncle had mentioned it because one of his guards worked there as a bouncer on his days off. I recognized the name when he mentioned it because it was one of the listed hot spots for the area, making it more appealing.

I combed my hair to the side and applied a light splash of cologne to my collar. Heading into the walk-in closet, I decided to go casual. Soft, cotton, light grey V neck T with black jeans, belt, and Van's. Close to the end of April, it was chilly out. Snatching up my navy blue hoodie, keys, and wallet, I headed out.

There was still a long line to get in, mostly women. I could feel them undressing me with their eyes, a few low whistles and whispers among the groups of women. A slow smirk crossed my lips as I made my way to the front of the line. Before Remi, I would have loved the attention but now, she was all I wanted. Thinking she must have been an enchantress because I felt like I was under a spell. We had only met the night before but my body was hungry for hers.

Putting thoughts of Remi aside and with no text back, I approached the door. Avoiding the line, I immediately recognized the doorman and bouncer, Jack and his older brother Mitch. As I approached, Jack checked a young woman's ID. Scrutinizing it with his flashlight, he looked up at her without showing any emotion, "Your ID is fake. I don't believe that you live on 'Tupac Lane,' here in Washington DC." Sticking the ID in his pocket, "Only in Vegas sweetheart," and waved his hand to show her to move on. The petite blond and her two friends stepped out of line with minimal complaints.

"Hot shit," Jack's deep voice brought my attention away from the small group of girls skulking back into the parking lot. "Look who it is Mitch!"

"Hey boys, long time no see!" I approached, greeting Jack with a hug, slamming our hands against each others backs. Completely ignoring the next group of ogling women. Giving Mitch the same greeting.

"What are you doing back in town?" Mitch asked as he greeted me as Jack went back to checking ID's and ushering patrons through the doors.

"I'm back. Officially back. My place is on the outskirts of Arlington."

"Well, that means we need to get together, catch up." Jack clapped his hand on my shoulder.

"Definitely," I agreed.

"So what's up, you want in?" Mitch asked.

"Yeah. Actually I'm VIP tonight." Stepping closer to Mitch to give him the code word for our group, "Amethyst," I whispered to him so that no one else could hear it.

The corner of Mitch's mouth lifted into an amused grin as he pulled out a purple wristband and attached it to my wrist. Pointing into my chest he said, "You know I'm going to want the details of your night later."

I laughed and knew exactly what he was talking about. The rest of my group must have already arrived. "How many?"

"Four," he smacked Jack's arm, who was in the middle of more ID checks, "Violet is with him tonight." Mitch and I had captured his full attention as he held another driver's license in his hand.

"With-with or friends-with?" He asked cautiously.

"Just friends, man." Taking a minute to read over his posture. He seemed relieved and a smile swept across his clean-cut face. "What? Want me to introduce you?" I knew exactly who they were talking about and it was amusing to see Jack's stunned look like I'd mentioned an elementary school crush.

"Yeah, dude. I'd fucking love that! She is gorgeous. Maybe not tonight, but her ID said Florida. This week maybe?" Looking almost anxious as he sorted through his thoughts and the new knowledge that I knew his mystery girl.

"I don't know how long she's in town, but I'll see what I can do." I chuckled and headed into the club. "See ya' boys. I'll be in touch."

Taking in my surroundings, this club was smaller than the space I'd bought, but with more space meant more opportunity. To either side of the DJ's booth, there were raised stages with rails for dancers. The higher ceilings meant body heat wasn't trapped against the patrons. Bars on either side, with small standing tables, made it easier to divide the room.

The club was packed as the lights danced as the beat ebbed. With the elevation of the entry hall, I could see the entire horde of dancing bodies on the dance floor, both bars on either side and a few of the VIP sections. I didn't see her. 

Stepping down and pushing through the crowd I came to a raised VIP section where two women sat close together, talking. Both had the purple bands on their wrists, but I didn't need to see the band to know I'd found the right section.

She hadn't noticed my approach right away. Sitting and talking to a blond, her light purple hair was pulled back on one side and her makeup was immaculate, making her skin look like porcelain. She was beautiful and I admired her for a moment from the other side of the VIP rope.

As she sipped her drink, her eyes drifted up to mine, widening as she set her drink on the low table and jumped from her seat. With a shriek, she threw her arms around my neck and wrapped her leather-clad legs around my waist.

"Micah! I didn't know you would be here!" She said into my ear.

"Kenzi, always good to see you beautiful!" As I placed her back on her feet she was beaming from ear to ear.

"Come on, come on! I want you to meet some of my friends. They are some of my closest girls!" Taking my hand and leading me up the few steps to the rounded couch.

As soon as we reached the plateau of the VIP area the lights swept over the couch, I recognized the blond immediately. Still hearing her squeal in my ears from this morning. 

Stopping in my tracks and spinning around to find the woman who had haunted my every thought throughout my day. Spotting her in the mass of people. She had one arm draped over a man's shoulder, grinding against his leg. My jaw clenched as my face heated. I could see the man's fingers gripping at her hips and I suddenly wanted to hurl him away from her.

"Ouch! Micah, you're hurting me!" Kenzi's hand was still in mine as I gripped it tightly. I spun to face her, bringing her hand to my mouth to kiss it.

"Sorry Kenz, I didn't mean to squeeze your hand so tightly." Rubbing my thumb across her skin, I let her go. Stealing one more glance at Remi before giving the VIP guests my full attention. "Who did you bring tonight?" Trying to make small talk and avoid too much attention on the sudden rush of jealousy that snared me.

"Alexis flew up with me, and there is also Remi. This is Shay." She turned and indicated her blond friend she had been sitting with. "She and I grew up together. Remi is out there," she waved her hand towards the crowd, "somewhere with Lexi."

"Nice to see you again, Shay." I said it casually before glancing back to find Remi again. Finding her, I saw that Lexi was next to her, bent over with her rear pressed into some poor schmuck's crotch. "I didn't realize Lexi was with you. How long are you in town?"

"Wait, how do you know each other?" Shay's voice came through first as Kenzi's echoed close behind.

"This is Micah, my boss," Kenzi's eyes his me like a deer in headlights, "at the bar I work at down in Florida. He is the one who hooked us up with VIP tonight!" I could tell she didn't want Shay knowing what she did for work, so I'd play along. "How do you know him?"

Shay leaned in close and whispered into Kenzi's neck. They leaned in and Makenzi's eyes widened as they slid back to mine, jaw dropping in the process.

Pressing my lips together, and raising an eyebrow, I could only imagine what Shay was telling her. When Shay pulled away her eyebrow was raised and both of their cheeks were flushed.

"Really Micah! Well, that explains a few things." Kenzi's melodic voice came through the heavy music and I smiled at her.

"What?" I could feel my smugness building.

"I'm going to go dance." With a swig of her drink, Shay left us quickly.

Kenzi scooted over to be closer to be able to chat. Wrapping my arm around the back, I leaned into her.

"So you and Remi?"

"Yup. How long are you and Lexi in town?"

"How'd that happen?" There was a smile as she asked me, completely ignoring my question.

"We met at her job, Del Sole. She had an altercation with an ex and I stepped in." Before I could finish, she interrupted.

"Oh shit, you don't mean Ben, do you? Never mind, I don't want to know." She took a long sip of her drink before continuing. "Saving another damsel in distress?" The joking tone in her voice was voided by the sadness in her eyes.

"You know damn well that neither of you are damsels in distress. I'm sure you ladies could have held your own, but if I'm able to give you back up, I'm here for you."

She sighed and didn't answer for a while. Staring at her hands in her lap, she seemed lost in her thoughts. What she had gone through had been traumatic and I'd been there for her. She put all of her trust in me to keep her safe and I had.

"You know I was. I was helpless." She had shifted in the seat to face me, folding her leg up next to me. When I opened my mouth to interject, she placed a soft finger to my lips. "I was helpless but you helped me. If it wasn't for you, I don't know that I'd have the strength I have today. You saved my life, Micah."

I gave her a squeeze and let her linger. Kenzi's ordeal was her own and I had no business sharing it. "Do your friends know?" Her head shot up from my chest and her face was full of worry.

"No. No one but you and those who were there. Not even told Lexi." She gripped the front of my shirt.

"Lexi had to have been suspicious."

"Please, Micah, don't tell anyone." She was pleading with me unnecessarily. Not my business, not mine to share.

"I promise." Bringing her in for another hug, she placed her hands on my chest, making her feel small in my arms.

"Oh my god!" She gasped as she pushed out of my arms.

"Kenzi?" I looked down at her with concern as her eyes took me in. Her lower lip curled upwards.

"You naughty boy!" Smacking my chest as she relaxed back into the seat next to me. "It was you in that picture, wasn't it?"

The laugh that escaped me was uncontrolled. She laughed with me as I realized Remi's friends had seen my text. Prideful, I took ownership and nodded.

"You look good boss, but then again, you don't need me to tell you that."

"All in good fun, Kenzi. So how long are you in town?"

"About a week. We needed a break from Miami so we came up here to spend some time with these guys and visit mom and dad."

"You know you have an admirer already, don't you?" I needed to make sure that I kept my word to Jack.

"Me? Who?" Her pale blue eyes went wide and she glanced around the busy club. "Should I be worried or flattered?" I had to laugh at her response.

"A friend of mine. Flattered. Not worried. He is a good guy and seems to be pretty smitten with you. When he realized I knew you, he was hoping I could introduce you two." Not asking a question, more like hanging the thought in the air for her to consider. Her lips curled into a sly smile before she agreed. Nodding her head softly.

"Wait! Is it the cute guy at the door, the one who was checking IDs? He did take his time with my ID. I thought it was a bit odd, but didn't question it. He turned a couple away, that was standing in front of us. He spotted their fakes. I guess it's about time that I get myself out there again, right?"

"Only if you're ready. As for Jack, he takes his job seriously. You know I would only suggest someone who I thought would be good to you. Treat you right." I reassured her as she sunk back into the couch. "Was he that obvious about his interest in you?"

"He was sweet, but he lingered. Not unprofessionally but just enough to be curious." She smiled and sipped her drink.

We watched the bodies grind on the dance floor. I kept my arm wrapped around the back of her as she sipped her drink. I'd lost sight of Remi, but I knew she hadn't left. I wondered, briefly, if Shay mentioned that I was here and that I was Kenzi's boss.

Patting her knee, I stood up. "I'm going to go find Remi."

"K, just so you know, she's dressed to kill." She gave me a teasing smile as I left her.

I hadn't gotten a good look at her before my attention had been diverted, earlier. When I found her, again, she didn't have a dance partner. Her hair was down and she was wearing a dress, red by the dim lighting of the club. Now, seeing her dancing with Lexi, she had a wide smile on her face as she danced seductively with her friend. The dress fit her amazingly well, hugging her curves and accentuating her chest and ass.

Her ass. At that moment, her ass was being squeezed by Lexi. I shook my head at the crazy behavior of Lexi. They danced together, pushing away approaching men. Lost in their little world with the thick beats spun from the DJ.

My feet seemed to move on their own as I drifted towards them. Approaching from their side, Lexi spotted me and I stopped her with my finger pressed to my lips. She smiled and continued dancing. Taking the opportunity to slide behind Remi, I quickly matched her tempo and pressing my hands lightly on her hips.

Her body stiffened as her head whipped up to Lexi, in approval of the stranger behind her. Alexis looked at me, smiled, and gave Remi her approval by stepping back as she wagged her eyebrows and teased her tongue along her teeth. Feeling her relax into me as I pressed harder against her, causing a rush of heat to course through me. Her head lolled back against my chest as we matched the rhythm of the music.

Lexi had disappeared and it was just Remi and I. The beats were constant and hypnotic. The fluidity of her movements made me wonder about what would happen when I finally could take her home.

When the music finally slowed we did too. She gripped my hands and dug them into her thighs. I was finding it harder to keep my identity from her when she could clearly feel my arousal. Every twitch of my dick seemed to be an encouragement for her to grind more provocatively against me. She still hadn't turned around, and unless Shay had told her, she didn't know I was here.

"Fuck baby girl, you need to let me take you home." My voice was rough as I skimmed my mouth over her neck. She stopped. Still gripping my hands. Her legs fatigued from dancing as her weight pressed into me as she swayed on her feet. Completely still in the middle of the ocean of bodies.

Releasing one of my hands, she turned towards me. Her eyes were full of emotion as she bit down on her lower lip. For a split second, it looked as if she was planning on slapping me for my comment, but the realization of who I was eased her mind and a sexy smile greeted me. Pulling me to her as she wrapped her arms around my neck.

"Well hello handsome." She was panting from dancing and her skin glistened with sweat. "How come you didn't let me know it was you? What are you doing here?" She asked as she took the lead in swaying us back into the beat. Sliding my hands around her and down her lower back to possessively claim her ass, I stared at her. Catching glints of green in her eyes as the light caught them.

"Funny story, actually." Kissing the corner of her mouth. "It's a small world, you know. Your girlfriend Kenzi, is my friend too. We know each other from Miami. I knew she was coming to town and I bought her bottle service and VIP for tonight. Who knew she had such good taste in friends."

"Good taste is right, have you seen how good I look tonight?" She guided one of my hands from behind her, up her side, to grasp her chest. My breath caught and my dick swelled as my hand was greeted by her hardened peak.

"Hell yeah you do, babe. That's why I am here with you and not catching up with Makenzi and Alexis." I was about through with her teasing. My pants were becoming uncomfortable and I knew she could ease the tension. "I am tempted to throw you over my shoulder and haul you back to my place. I don't share well with others."

She hummed with mirth as she buried one hand in my hair. "Yeah, okay caveman." Her nails sending a chill down my spine and I shivered with pleasure. Nuzzling her head into my collar, I felt her nip.

"Remi," it came out as a growl.

"Yes?" I could hear the bubbling amusement as her mouth continued its assault.

"If we don't leave soon, I will make you wish I took you right here." My tone hadn't changed as she shot me a playful look.

"You wouldn't," interrupting her by crashing my mouth against hers.

I snaked my hand to the back of her neck and gripped her to me. Showing her, through my kiss, how much I needed her. Her body melded pliantly into mine as I cinched our hips together. Tongues dueling as her ferocity matched mine. Pulling away from her, gazing into her heavily hooded eyes.

"I would and I will." I gripped her tightly to me, beginning to move us to the music again.

Glancing around, none of our friends were close enough to notice any of our movements as I slid my hand from her neck down her front. Pinching and grasping her full tit in my hand as it descended. Her lip pouted and I snagged it between mine, releasing a moan. I reached my hand between her hips and my thickness. I could feel the electricity around us sing, drowning out all other noise around us.

Time seemed to slow as my fingers grazed the hot flesh of her thighs. Her breathing quickened, hands tightening, as the rhythm of her dancing faltered.

"Act natural, baby girl. Dance with me."

Coaxing with my hand against her lower back, she rolled her hips into mine as she fell back into step with me. Holding her lower back, I used my other hand to find the fringe of her lace. Lace, always fucking lace. Sliding my fingers along her, it was already wet for me and she shuddered.

"Let's get out of here," giving her another chance to make a move to get us privacy.

"No, I can't. I promised the  girls a girls' night." Barely audible with how breathy her words were. Smiling into her neck as I looped my finger in the panties and tugged. "Micah! You're not even supposed to be here."

"I'm exactly where I want to be, Remi." With another tug, the panties slipped lower. "Don't stop dancing, baby girl."

She obeyed, continuing to roll her hips and shift her weight to beat. I kneeled down as she gripped my shoulder, gently pulling the lace down to her ankles. Tapping one ankle to step out of them, then the other. Softly caressing her leg from the inside of her ankle to her naked center. Stuffing the scrap of lace into my pocket as looked up to met her heated gaze. Lights dancing over her face as those around us were oblivious to my private show.

Rising to capture her mouth with mine, I plunged two fingers into her. Capturing her gasp in my mouth. I watched her eyes darken, jaw drop, and body tremble. Loved her reactions.

"Tell me again you don't want to leave with me." Pressing against her lower back as she writhed against my hand.

"Micah," she breathed into my neck, "I can't."

"I think you can." Pushing my palm against her sensitive nub, grinding against her. Her fingers clenched in my shirt as she leaned her head against my collar. Being so close to her I could hear the soft whimpers that were escaping her.

"Fuck!" She moaned as she threw her head back, exposing her neck and beautiful décolletage.

Her legs wobbled as I dipped her back, wrapping her leg around mine. Gaining better access to her as I held her steady with one arm and positioned my thumb to stroke her. Her hips bucked as my thrusting quickened. I could feel her tighten and I pulled out of her, resting my fingers against her opening and continuing to work my thumb. When she looked up at me her lips were quivering.

"Please, Micah. Please don't stop. I'm so fucking close." As she pleaded, closing her eyes as I tasted her neck.

"Come home with me." Saying it into her neck. Nipping at her sensitive skin. Feeling her arch into me I needed more.

"I.." She couldn't get the words out before I clasped our mouths together again.

Bringing us upright and clutching her face to mine. She had been so close to coming for me and I withdrew. She stood in my arms, quivering.

"Now your hair is wet and I have your panties. Guess I'll let you get back to your girls night." Giving her a chaste kiss before turning away from her to say goodnight to the other girls. She was barely standing on her unsteady legs. I had almost made it to the VIP section when she grabbed my elbow and forced me to turn.

"What about my car? I drove us." She had regained some of her composure.

"Screw your car. Let one of the girls drive it home."

"They've all been drinking since dinner, they can't drive-" She was interrupted by a voice on the stairs to our VIP lounge.

"I haven't." As I turned, Remi blushed and covered her mouth, embarrassed by our exchange. "I'll drive us home tonight Remi. You deserve to," Lexi's eyes rolling over me, "get laid tonight."

"Lex," I greeted her. One thing I truly loved about Alexis was her blunt and unfiltered verbal skills. I realized that I hadn't actually said hello to her before stealing her friend away.

She scoffed at me before greeting Remi's stare. "You think I haven't seen you two out there? You need to get a room." Seeing Remi's jaw drop, Lex assured her, "all that spit swapping makes me want to shove you two out the door myself. Go! I've been too busy dancing to drink. Your car will be at Shay's and we can catch up later, just text me the door code."

The air vibrated with relief as I saw Remi physically relax and blew out the breath that she was holding. Grabbing her hand, I gave it a squeeze, signaling that it was time to go. Climbing the stairs to snag her things, we watched as Remi said her goodbyes.

"Kenz caught me up on you and Remi. Treat her nice, boss. You break her heart and I'll come back to DC and cut your fucking dick off." Lex had gotten close so the could hiss her threat.

"Thanks Lexi, love you, lady." Remi's timing was impeccable. Turning to me,  "Ready?"

"Of course." Unwavering my eye contact with Lexi as I answered both women.
