Chapter Eleven

“Six o’clock. Guy in the mahogany shirt. His companion is wearing a white baseball cap.” Blake nodded in the direction of the man. “Are those the regulars you’re talking about?”

The head bartender’s gaze shifted upward and then down again. “They regulars but they don’t cause no trouble ‘round here. They ain’t the one’s you’re lookin’ for.”

Aiden snorted and shifted on his stool. He took a lighter out of his pocket and used the mirrored side to get a view of the two men Blake spotted.

“Samuel, how long have you been working here?” Blake inquired of the bartender.

“Years, sir. Almost six years.”

“Take another look. The young guy with the white baseball cap looks like he’s trying too hard to maintain a low key persona. His face was rounded with a clean-shaven jawline. Look at his shoes. Who wears Wall Street slacks to an exotic bar?”

Samuel looked up again as he wiped the bar with his towel for the fourth time. “A lot of them uppity businessmen come for the girls. They’re too ashamed to show their faces, so they dress down a little.”

“Doesn’t look like he’s looking at girls to me,” Aiden commented, twisting his lighter upright and then nudging it into his pocket. “All your girls are on stage behind him. His eyes are focused on the door.”

“What are you two saying?” Samuel asked. “You suppose he’s up to no good.”

Blake and Aiden exchanged a knowing glance. He’d known Aiden almost all his life. Even though they were cousins, their uncle raised them like brothers. Something told Blake they had the same hunch. Something was going on at the Dockhouse Bar. Something strange. The club was in unmarked territory, so Blake didn’t doubt the possibility of the something strange occurring here on a regular basis. After the chaos, he was certain he’d find some answers here, which was why he and Aiden had returned.

“He’s up to something.”

“Look at this.” Samuel tipped his chin upward in the direction of the suspicious men. “Looks like the big one caught himself a chick. See I told ya. They’re just looking for innocent fun.”

Blake opened a case on the counter, spun in his chair, and pretended to be interested in the exotic dancers performing on the stage. But of course, he was interested in Samuel’s observation. Sure enough the guy in the mahogany shirt followed a chick to the opposite side of the wall. The big grin plastered on her face was not a sign of fear, and the way her hand cupped the back of his neck was not a show of objection.

“Hmm, you may be right,” Blake said without turning. The chick led the guy further into the room.

“But then again…” Aiden said.

At the same time, waves of vibrant energy surged through Blake as he caught a decadent and familiar scent. It rushed through him like water through a hydrant until he was drowning in her scent.

Naomi.

Immediately his gaze whipped to the entryway where he’d detected his true mate. His nose never lied to him, but this was unbelievable.
