CHAPTER FOURTEEN

Dating Tip #20: Take your date to a romantic location to inspire romance. This doesn’t include the local haunted house which may be creepier than you are.

A couple days ago, Tessa thought she wouldn’t be surprised if Rob had to take something from a supernatural strip club. It seemed rather hilarious. She wasn’t laughing tonight. Not only did he need to repo something from a pimp, but a leprechaun pimp at that.

As they stood outside of the strip club, she rubbed her shoulders.

With a devilish grin, he said, “You can always pass on this one.”

After several missed opportunities to reach her scroll, she couldn’t pass up this chance. “Couldn’t you open the portal as a favor?”

He crossed his arms.

“I won’t tell anyone. It could be between you and me.”

“Nope, proximity issues. Have to be within a certain distance of the repo’ed item.”

Two warlocks left the club, allowing the booming beats of dance music to escape into the street.

Tessa frowned. After the episode with her grandmother, she hadn’t come prepared for a night at the club. Jeans and a T-shirt wasn’t her standard attire.

“Before we go inside, who’s our target? I prefer to be aware of things from now on. No more crazy surprises like weirdo warlocks or pissed off wood nymphs.”

He walked toward the door. “The client wants an ancient goblet, a tenth-century wooden mug that is imbued with warding magic.”

The bouncer at the door eyed their attire with distaste. His eyes swept over her clothes as if she wriggled into the gutter and came back hoping to enter.

Rob leaned forward and whispered into his ear. The man nodded and allowed them to enter.

“What did you tell him?”

He grinned. “That I was your boyfriend and you wanted to talk to the owner about a job.”

“You’re joking, right?”

“It got us in the door, didn’t it?”

“Yes, but now he thinks I’ll be swinging from one of those poles in a few days.”

A sizable crowd circled three stages with a bar in the back. The performers undulated and gyrated as a mixed crowd of humans and supernaturals cheered them on. She’d never been to a strip club before. Not that Tessa had never seen stripping acted out on television, but that wasn’t the same as seeing a woman on stage flinging her business out to customers hoping for a tip. Groups of men and women danced not far from the stage.

Tessa tried to avoid the feeling of being underdressed, but as they weaved through the crowd, she couldn’t help folding her arms to cover her clothes. Her nervous hands checked her hair, smoothed over her shirt.

She hated casting spells related to clothing, but the desire to put her best foot forward drove her toward a corner. A powerful masking spell would require concentration to maintain and hold, but she had only a few options. With a flick of her wrist, she created a black pencil skirt. For good measure she clipped two inches from the hemline and fit the garment more snuggly on her hips.
