CHAPTER 11

I poked my head around the corner. I did not want to go out there and take orders. This outfit wouldn’t pass for a bikini. I had three triangles on with string holding them in place. It was a good thing I was a witch and could magically get rid of hair or no one would be able to tell I had any bottoms on. I wouldn’t have worn this at twenty, let alone forty. The things we do for our kids. Mina was the only reason I was still there wearing this outfit.

Footsteps behind me made me yelp and press my back to the wall. Tirgen was exiting an office and heading my way. He whistled and shook his head. “Damn, Eve, you look good enough to eat. And boy am I hungry.” I had no idea how he found me attractive. He could see all of my flaws. There was no hiding the stretch marks and love handles.

I crossed my arms over my chest. “Why am I in this while they have actual clothing on?” I had balked at the shortie shorts and skimpy tank top before. Now, I would kill to be given a set.

Tirgen’s eyes devoured me. “This is more befitting of you.”

“Look asshole, you had better grab me some shorts and a tank top. Now.” I poked his chest with a finger as I put some of my magic behind my words. My anger ignited my hellfire, and his top caught on fire.

He shouted and started patting his chest. My heart started racing. It could kill him in another second. Keeping my panic hidden, I put it out and then pinned him with a glare. Tirgen’s smile never faltered as he turned and went back to the closet. He came back with the outfit in his hands. “You’re a feisty one. I like it.”

I took it from him and stepped into the shorts. I immediately felt better, even though my ass cheeks were hanging out. Ignoring Tirgen was difficult, but I managed as I pulled my top over my head and did my best to tug it into place. When I’d arrived Tirgen had shown me the computer system where I input drinks for the bartenders, where I picked them up, and how the separation of tables worked. With my head held high, I tottered out from the hall and approached the first table in my section.

With a smile, I stopped by a couple of women. One had short, spiky black hair and the other had shoulder-length brown hair. “Welcome to Club Bliss. My name is Eve and I’ll be your waitress tonight. What can I get you to drink?”

The black-haired woman pursed her lips covered with bright purple lipstick. I loved the color and would love a top in that shade. “I’ll have a Harvey Wallbanger. What do you want, babe?”

Her girlfriend bounced once in her chair. “I’d like a Negroni. And a Tom Collins.”

“I’ll be right back with your order.” My feet were already killing me.
