LUCIAN'S POV.
My eyes had met hers earlier but she didn't seem to stand out, as usual she was just one of those extremely beautiful human women that Night Owl's management employed to tease it's werewolves VIP'S. But his taste was higher than all these lowly humans, they even had no idea that they lived side by side with werewolves.
I had intended to ignore her just the way I did with the rest but when her sultry voice cut through the thick wall that I had struggled to build, to protect me from women, my wolf screamed "Mate!".
It can't be, I hissed back at it. I can't be mated with a human. I turned around to stare at her, she must have been surprised because she looked up at me in confusion, I was pulled into the depth of her eyes, it was until Candy's voice pulled me back to reality that I tore my eyes away.
"Hey, lead us to his table", she said to her. I followed her quietly as she led us past the deafening noise of the first floor and we took the elevator to the underground club built for werewolves. I could sense her discomfort as we were pressed close to each other in the elevator.
One of Night Owl's trick to get you attracted to their girls. Candy simply stood at my side, gibbering, unaware of the tension between the woman and I. Candy was as dumb as she was beautiful.
The elevator made a ding noise and slid open.
She ushered us into a dark room with red lights, she seemed nervous and it was then I realized that she must be new because I had been here countless times and I had never seen her. She led us to a private room and the hostess in charge tonight, smiled at me and opened the door.
I took my seat and candy wasted no time pouncing on me. She crossed her body over mine, placing my hands on her round, soft ass, pushing her large breasts that were barely inside of her top. She giggled and brought her lips down on mine but I was quick enough to turn away, bringing her lips down on my cheek.
Someone coughed and I looked above Candy who was already attacking my neck with light kisses to find the attendant still standing there, blushing intensively.
"Leave!". I hissed but my wolf scratched at me and commanded, "Stay", as if she could hear him. She turned around to leave but I suddenly blurted out, "Stay". She turned around to look at me confused and Candy raised her head to look into my eyes.
"Bastard", I cursed under my breath at my wolf who I could sense it's eyes were twinkling with mad delight. It kicked at me, trying to free itself from my body but I pulled it back in, masterfully.
"You want her to stay and watch us?", Candy giggled. "You're so naughty". She threw her head back to laugh. My wolf was already getting irritated at her and was itching to get her away and pull the woman before us into my lap, "No!", I unitentionally protested when candy tried to kiss me again. What is wrong with this wolf, I said angrily within me, frowning deeply.
"What's wrong Lucian?". Candy asked, confused. "Not tonight?", She asked well aware of my constant mood swings. I'm surprised she hasn't given up yet.
I nodded and she gathered herself, winked and left the room pouting.
"A drink?". The woman asked and made for the champagne that had been placed in the ice bucket on the table, as she reached for it, I grabbed her arm and pulled her to me.
She gasped as she landed across my chest, raising her head to look into my eyes. I fought the mad urgue to lower my head and take her lush lips into mine. My wolf was already running wild, "Mate!", It kept growling, urging me to kiss her.
"Excuse me Sir", she frowned, attempting to free her hand from my tight grasp. "Please let go".
"What's your name?".
"Ruby".
"Ruby!". Her name rolled out of my tongue and it pleased me.
"I haven't seen you here before". I enjoyed how she pulled at her arm so tenderly, it only heightened my alpha's sense to dominate so it only made me hold on tighter to her.
"Let me go and I would tell you". She gave up on using force and decided to trick me instead. I smiled at her change in tactics.
"I don't fall for little tricks that easily", I grinned.
"Please let go". She repeated, pulling at her arm again. I held on tight and brought my lips close to her ears, whispering softly,
"I saw you checking me out earlier". I felt her body tense up and I smiled. For some reason, I enjoyed teasing this woman already.
RUBY'S POV.
I felt his hot breath fan on my ears and his masculine voice erupted in my belly, making me squirm in my panties and stiffen.
"He didn't just say that". I told myself over and over again. He smiled at me and I could tell that he was enjoying this. It took everything in me to frown at him.
"Excuse me Sir but this is inappropriate", I wished to slap the smug expression on his face away. "I am only to serve your drink and leave".
"But you made me chase candy away so you have to make up for it".
"I didn't ask you to do that", I snapped and kept pulling at my arm that was trapped in his tight grip but he wouldn't let go. He cocked his head at me.
"Really, you won't stay and keep me company?".
Rich men are such pigs, I thought. Here I was, crushing on him because he looked different from the rest but it only took him a few minutes and a room to change his demeanor. I ignored his question and kept pulling, he suddenly let go causing me to crash on the floor, from his unexpected release.
He laughed and raised his hands innocently.
"Hey, you told me to let go". I stood up angrily and made for the door, stopping to twist the door knob. "What about my drink.". He asked calmly as if nothing had happened, he reclined his back on the couch and closed his eyes.
I marched back angrily and picked up the bottle, twisting the cork and popping the bottle, foam spilled out into the bucket and I poured him a glass and placed the bottle besides the glass. I made for the door again but he placed his foot in front of me, making me trip, he reached out just in time to grab my hand and pull me to him again.
"You should be careful", he said with a concerned look but I knew it was all an act. I was fuming with rage but I couldn't bring myself to ignore his gentle heart beat as my hands were placed on his chest. At that moment, he looked down at my finger and saw the ring.
"You're married", he frowned. I nodded because I was at loss for words and my throat was suddenly parched. He pushed me away from him and I rolled down to the floor, hitting my body on the floor.
"Ouch!", I screamed, pushing myself up immediately to glare at him. "What did you do that for?". I whined, looking at my elbow to find a scratch.
"You should leave". His tone had changed and he no longer seem to be interested in teasing me.
I pushed open the door and left angrily, fuming that he had suddenly kicked me out just like that. I took the elevator. Downstairs, I made for the general bar when I saw Athena hurrying towards me, she seemed on edge about something.
"Oh God!". I groaned, today is definitely not my day.
"Ruby! Where have you been. I've been searching all over for you". She said in between short pants.
"I was attending to your VIP guest. Where else would I be?". I was already angry, I didn't need her to ruin my mood anymore than it already is.
"Oh God Ruby....", She sighed in frustration, she was beginning to get on my nerves, she shouldn't be the one frustrated that should be me. "There are two, two VIP's tonight and I expected you to welcome the both of them and show them to their rooms".
"What! But you didn't mention that".
"I'm sorry, it totally slipped my mind".
"How could you forget that".
"I'm sorry". She was too clumsy to be the manager of this place, I thought.
"Where's the second guest now?".
"In his room but you have to bring a drink for him before the girls attend to him".
"Girls?". I asked.
"Yeah, it's a treat for them on the house".
"So the first guest will get those girls too". An odd feeling began to flow through me.
"Yes. I just dropped the girls off in his room before I was told that he you had just left. Came looking for you". I frowned at the idea that he was with other women at the moment.
"Tell one of the waiters to take his drink up to him. I don't want to do this anymore".
"Please Ruby, you can't quit now. You know that the general staff are not allowed at the underground club. Remember, it's double your pay".
"Fine", I hissed.
"Great". She smiled, hurrying away the same direction she came. "Oh and he only drinks red wine"
"What's his room number?". I called after her.
"36", she called back at me before the loud music drowned out her voice.
I groaned loudly and picked out a bottle of red wine, placing it in an ice bucket. I headed to the elevator, glasses were always available in their rooms.
The elevator brought me to underground club and I headed for room 36, it was on the right side of the array of rooms on that floor. I stood in front of the door with the number 36 written boldly across it. I heaved a deep sigh and pressed the door bell.
