Sitting in the booth, my knee bounced as I looked around the club I’d come to love over the past year. Illusion had been more than just a place to work; it had become my home and family. The people I worked with were around me, but I couldn’t talk to any of them. No one recognized me though, and I counted my blessings.

Mostly because Lark was here.

I’d seen her the instant she walked in, my body responding to her immediately. Her golden hair was down, her curves on display, and even with the mask covering her eyes, I knew every inch of her body. She appeared to be working the floor tonight, bringing drinks and appetizers to people as she flitted from one table to the next. My favorite nights were when she worked inside the club with me. Though, also the most distracting, as I always watched her more than the customers.

The glass slammed down on the table, and I jumped, turning back to Darren. He’d been irritable the whole way here. I’d thought it was me, but now, as I tried to decipher his mumblings, I was beginning to realize it had nothing to do with me.

“Everything okay, Dare?” I rubbed his arm, hoping to soothe him some.

“My partner’s late. I don’t like being this exposed in a Mascro establishment, but he insisted, and now he’s dared to stand me up! He’s being more and more demanding, forgetting I’m the boss.” Spit practically flew across the table as he ranted, and I wondered who he was referring to.

“I’m sorry—” I started but was cut off by a man.

“Quit the whining, Double T. I had an errand to run.” He sat down, but he had on a full face mask, obscuring any sign of who he was. His eyes flitted over to me briefly before dismissing me.

“Why’d you bring the whore?” he asked, and I stiffened.

Darren didn’t like the comment, despite referring to me as such at times. His arm went around my shoulders, pulling me to him. It was at that moment our waitress walked up. Except it wasn’t Kristina like it had been for the past half hour.

“What can I get you this evening?”

Her voice sent shivers down my spine, the musical quality painful to hear when it wasn’t directed toward me. I turned, our eyes meeting, and I saw the moment she recognized me. Lark paused, swallowing, but turned back to the men. It was a slap to my face, crushing my splintered heart. Sucking in a breath, I tried to slow the pounding in my ears, the tunneling of my vision, and the way it felt like the world had been swept out from under me.

Darren pinched me, causing a gasp at the sensation, but it was the grounding I needed to focus back on where I was. When I blinked, I found Lark looking at me with pity, sweeping her eyes over me one more time before she left to grab whatever they ordered.
