Lara kept looking at the crowd, hoping to see any sign of the two men. Then, she noticed a young man approaching. She could feel his eyes on her, a predatory gaze that didn't make her falter. It was not Sam or Rocky, but she guessed that they had sent him to her – maybe to invite her to join them.
A slow smile spread across her lips as she took another sip of her drink.
The manager came in closer, greeting her with a slick grin. "Good evening, ma'am. I am the manager of this club. You seem to be new here. We have several exclusive offers for special guests like you. Would you like me to explain?"
"Offers!" Feigning curiosity, Lara raised an eyebrow. "What kind of offers are we talking about?"
"That depends on what kind of night you're planning to have. Are your friends joining you? Maybe celebrating something special—a birthday, perhaps, or an anniversary?"
