need anyone to swoop in and take care of me. So if you think you can come in here and flash some money around and I’ll fall all over you, you’re wrong.”
“Uh, okay.”
“Can we still get some nachos and chicken though?” Kaden interrupted.
Hailee huffed and rolled her eyes.
“Oh, and we still need more beer,” Dominic added, before she stomped off towards the bar.
“So, that was the girl who broke your heart?” Kaden asked, once she was far enough away not to hear their conversation over the music.
Dominic took a minute to watch the girls dance on the stage. His mind wandered to Hailee dancing up on him then peeling her top off. If it was any darker in that room, neither of them would’ve been able to see each other and she would’ve finished her dance, grinding on him and doing her best to take him to the brink. His chest tightened. What made him sick was knowing that her sensual dance wasn’t only for him. She didn’t even know it was him. That was a carefully planned dance she did for anyone who paid her enough.
He moved his stare to Hailee. Her back was to him while she stood at the bar. “Yes. Minus the purple hair and tatts.” Putting his focus back on Kaden, he added, “And she never dressed like that, either.”
“So, she’s from Toronto, then? Funny how she ended up here in Pittsburgh, huh?”
“More ironic.”
“Ironic? Why do you say that?”
“Hey guys, I’m Sasha,” the girl with the black and blue hair said before Dom could reply. She took their beers off her tray and set them on the table. “Here are your beers, and your food is on the way. Can I get you anything else?”
“Hailee?”
“She’s behind me with your food, but I’m around if you need anything.”
Kaden’s eyes were on her ass again as she walked away, his hand almost knocking his beer over as he groped for it.
Hailee quickly approached the table, her face still frozen in a bitchy expression. She was apparently good at keeping that poker face, as hard as he tried to break it. She tossed the plates onto the table. They landed with a small clink. “Chicken. Nachos. Enjoy,” she said before turning and strutting away. He didn’t even have a chance to come up with anything to say before she disappeared into the back.
“I’m guessing ordering a second plate of chicken might be out of the question,” Kaden said, helping himself to a mouthful of food.
After a while, Sasha walked over to their table again, her hips swaying. She seemed to be working for a nice tip. “Can I get you boys anything else?” Her breasts were popping out of her top and Kaden’s eyes never left them.
“Actually, we’d like to get a second order of chicken.”
“No problem.” She winked at Kaden before retreating to the kitchen.
“So what happened with you two? Hailee seemed like she was mad at you.” Kaden took a nacho, scooping as much cheese, beef, tomatoes and sour cream onto it as he could before shoving it in his mouth.
“Thanks, Captain Obvious.” She may have looked mad, but bet she was more upset that I found her . “You know how I am, I love the ladies, but I also have respect for them. She had me wrapped around her finger. We were young, but we had a plan. She was going to travel with me and be by my side in whatever city I ended up playing for. I wanted her to know how serious I was, before I was in a position where there’d be fans and bunnies.” He ran a hand through his hair as the events of the worst day resurfaced. “I planned a day of beauty and shopping with my sisters for her, then they brought her home to our place for a special dinner. She looked rattled when she got home, but my sisters said she was fine, that they’d had a good day and discussed a lot of things.” He swallowed hard, fighting against the knot that formed in his throat. “When I proposed, she freaked out and ran. That was it.”
“You actually proposed to her? So it was that serious?”
“It was, to me
“Uh, okay.”
