Chapter Seven:

Testing Begins

Julianna’s first day on the job went rather well, though her mother dropped by the bar. Julianna had been surprised and nervous, not only because of the species difference, but also because of the wet dream. She’d worried everyone could scent it on her, but Jeff and his friends hadn’t seemed to notice and greeted Beth warmly. She promised to stay out of Julianna’s way and watched her with a big ‘proud-mama’ smile. Julianna blushed but focused on the job at hand.

She learned the rules and schedules quickly, and even managed to iron out some of the previous snags affecting the smooth operation of the bar. There were a total of eight waitresses, four barkeeps, and twelve bouncers. She met with all of them over the course of her first week and managed to get their schedules worked out to everyone’s mutual satisfaction. She coordinated with Zach to make sure the bouncers rotated and each one was given at least two nights off a week, though not necessarily consecutively. Jeff and Zach took turns for the morning shifts as barkeep, so Zach could have some time off as well. He returned as head bouncer in the evenings.

The other three bartenders–Laura Thomas, Gary Howler, and William “never Bill” Phillips–all worked the evenings, rotating the weekends so everyone got a chance for bigger tips. There were always two bartenders each night to spell each other and to work the rushes. Six of the waitresses were full time, three working Tuesday through Saturday, and three working Sunday through Friday. The last two were part-time workers who filled in shifts when someone was sick or needed some time off, as well as serving as backup on the weekends. Laura and William were human, as were four of the waitresses, but all the bouncers were west of left field. Julianna wondered what they did for security on the nights of the full moon.

The four west of left field waitresses were omega members of the pack, but they held their own with the humans and the other patrons. Most of the bouncers were beta, though one or two of them were omega, and deferred to the others. They stood up to humans without any trouble.

Julianna liked all the bouncers, though most of them belonged to Jeff as part of some sort of group she didn’t understand. They had their own ranking within the group, and the other bouncers outside the group deferred to them, regardless of rank. Despite their size and strength, all were intelligent and sharp and treated her with respect and deference, particularly after they saw her work with Woody, an omega bouncer younger than the others but well-liked.

On her third night at the bar, a young alpha and his beta friends got a little too worked up. Woody moved in to escort the young man and his rowdy friends outside so they didn’t disturb the rest of the bar. Julianna saw Woody gesture in his careful, polite way to encourage the
