Chapter Eighteen
Evan
“Okay, place your bets.” I look at the twenty-five people standing around the roulette table. I look up at Zara who has been the center of attention to everyone who came to the table.
“I’m going to try my luck with number four,” she says, putting two red chips on it. Before we came to the table, she walked to the donation table and dropped five thousand dollars and got the chips for it. No one actually wins any money tonight; whatever chips you cash in at the end of the night will be matched by the owner of the team.
She started with five thousand, and she’s way over seven thousand right now. “Well, if you say four, I have no choice,” says Trevor, the fifty-year-old man who has been itching to touch her, always leaning in to whisper to her. The only thing I can see in my head is me throat punching him.
“All bets are closed,” I say right as he puts his chips on the table and take the white little ball and spin it. I don’t even watch the ball spin, the only thing I’m watching is Zara standing next to him with her hand holding her purse.
“I’m here for my shift,” Peter, my other teammate, says from behind me, and I look over at him.
The ball finally falls and jumps from one number to the other landing on 00. “The winner is 00,” I announce and see everyone lose their bets. “Thank you, guys, so much for playing. I’m going to be handing it off to my boy Peter,” I say with a smile and walk around the table to see Zara collecting her chips.
“Don’t tell me you’re leaving already,” Trevor says, and she just smiles.
“Hey, babe,” I say using the nickname I’ve never used in my life because my father always calls my mother that. She turns to me, and I see a sparkle in her eyes. Fuck, maybe I need to call her babe more often.
“Hey,” I say to Trevor, then turn to Zara, kissing her cheek. “You did good.” She puts the chips in her hand purse, and now it’s bursting.
“Yeah.” She smiles. “We should try blackjack.” I nod at her and grab her hand in mine. “Trevor, it was a pleasure meeting you.” She smiles at him, and I just turn and pull her away.
“I swear if he touched you one more time, I was going to throat punch him,” I tell her, and she just laughs.
“Please, you had that bleach blonde all over you laughing up a storm.” She stops walking. “Tell me, what did she say that was so funny?”
I look at her, and she folds her hands over her chest, which is the wrong move ’cause it pushes up her perfect tits. “Which blonde?” I ask, knowing she is talking about Taylor.
“Playing stupid is not a good look on you, Evan,” she says, her eyes squinting as she glares at me.
“I have no idea what you’re talking about,” I tell her, and she now comes closer to me.
