Chapter Thirteen

The club was incredible and Roman was right, the VIP section was certainly something to see, impeccably designed and decorated in deep plums with low lighting and smoky mirrors. It was seductive and classy with high end furnishings and a bar that curved the entire length of the diamond encrusted dance floor. The lights from the small flecks bounced across the walls, and I’d remember this place for future events. It was unusual and distinctive and a waitress in a tasteful cocktail dress had delivered Cristal on ice before we’d even taken our seats.

Apparently tonight was quiet, which only reinforced the fact that this must be one of London’s more happening new venues. The club below was bouncing with bodies and from our prime spot, with an incredible view of everything, it looked as though Roman’s friend was keen to impress. Either that or he wanted the association with Tyler Hunter, whose new found celebrity was already getting him some serious attention. As the other lone male in the group, so was Charlie.

Roman grabbed my hand and my glass, leading me to the bar where a giant of a man was leaning casually against the curved, polished wood in a five thousand pound suit, grinning broadly. He was built like Roman and there was an air about him that suggested military. I couldn’t place exactly what it was, but it seemed to me as obvious as the nose that was broken across his face.

Roman released my hand as the two embraced like brothers, warm smiles reflecting a bond that was close and genuine. “A.K. meet Chastity Evangelista,” Roman said as he flashed his eyebrows, casting his friend a quick glance before taking my outstretched hand.

“Does she have security clearance,” he grinned at Roman as he nodded, leaning in to whisper to me, “Weapon of choice.” I knew it.

Roman spoke quietly to his friend. I couldn’t make out the words, trying to get a better glimpse of whatever he was taking from A.K. and I wondered what the hell that was all about. I couldn’t see what it was, hoping that they wouldn’t continue to exclude me from the conversation. I decided to take matters into my own hands.

“So how do you two know each other then?” I asked as Roman laughed.

“A gentleman never tells, babe,” he smiled.

“Well you’re no gent, so that rules you out of that particular get out clause. Now spill,” I smiled as A.K. laughed.

“It looks like you might have met your match, brother,” he grinned as Roman nodded.

“Damn right. We met in Afghanistan. A.K. was trying to tickle the Taliban into submission and I had to save his arse,” Roman laughed as A.K. shook his head.

“Not quite how I remember it. That shrapnel clearly did more damage than I thought.”

“Be careful,” Roman growled with a distinct humour in his voice as A.K. glanced across at our booth.
