Chris cursed under his breath when he dropped the salt shaker he was filling and it spewed salt all over the table. Sighing, he began to clean up the mess and tried to get his emotions settled. It had been a bitch of a week. Three of his waitstaff were sick— flu— and he was sure others would follow soon enough. On top of that, his manager had broken her ankle and was out for the rest of the week, doctor’s orders. So, he was filling in, doing extra work, when he really wanted to be on the phone with Cynthia.

Pathetic. Every day, he counted the hours until he spoke to her, and today, it had been pushed back because of the extra work.

“Chris?”

He turned and found Lee, one of his hostesses, standing a little too close. Since his manager Maylea had hired her, Lee, a petite redhead, had made no secret of the fact that she wanted to fuck him. Chris never fucked the help; it only led to disaster. But truth was, he wasn’t interested— in anyone. Other than Cynthia. That alone had him worried; he didn’t need to deal with the woman the wait staff had named “the Barracuda.”

“What do you need, Lee?” He stepped around the table with the pretense of cleaning up more salt.

“Kaile called. He can’t work. Another case of the flu.”

He sighed. “Do we have anyone to work in his place?”

“I called Denise. She said she can make it, but she’ll be thirty minutes late. She’s waiting for a sitter.”

He nodded. “Thanks, Lee.”

She began to turn around, but then paused, looking back over her shoulder. “Since we’re both working late, maybe we should get a drink after we close up.”

For a second, he looked at her— well rounded, with beautiful green eyes, a full, pouty mouth, a pair of breasts that had to have been bought and paid for— and felt ... nothing.

“Lee, you know I don’t date the staff.”

She frowned. “I don’t know why you have to be such a saint.” With that she turned and marched away, her full ass swinging with each step.

“I’d watch out for angry women, Chris.”

He glanced over and found his friend Evan Chambers smiling at him. “Hey, whatcha doing here so early?”

“Finished my meeting early.”

Evan was a year or two younger than Chris. He’d started with nothing, just like Chris, working construction. Now he owned one of the most successful construction companies in Hawaii. With his gray eyes and golden- brown hair, Evan had captured and bedded more than one of Chris’s employees. But even though Evan was a close friend and one of the few who accepted him as a switch, Chris knew Evan’s jaded personality would never let him settle down.

“We’re short of staff, so be warned; I might put you to work.”

Evan smiled, then glanced over at Lee, who was talking to one of the waitresses. “If you put me to work on that one, I’ll do just fine. Don’t you just want to bend her over and fuck that ass?”

Chris sighed.
