Cole finished his beer and then went back in the house to find Sierra in the same spot, only this time there were more patterns and swatches spread out before her

“Luke wants us to come down to the club for dinner You up for it?”

Sierra stopped what she was doing and looked up at hi to go the way he had hoped it would

“I can’t I really need to get this together I’ve got a , and I need to have the design laid out”

Cole nodded his head, pretending to understand Once again, life was getting in the way, but there wasn’t anything he could do to change it Figuring he had nothing better to do, and Sierra would be working for at least a couple of hours, he decided to go down to Club Destiny to see Luke by hiain not getting a response from her, but he tried his best not to think about it

Oh hell, as he kidding? He didn’t think about anything else

When Cole walked through the door at Club Destiny a half hour later, so hies of his nerves Too bad he was currently in the middle of a dramatic conversation with Mistress Serena, which reet hi the floor in front of his desk He needed to let Cole know that he’d just be a fewoff a quick text, he continued to watch Cole through the , noticing theto the stairs, Cole turned and headed to the bar and Luke couldn’t help but notice the way Cole’s shoulders appeared to deflate instantly

“Sorry,” Luke turned his attention back to Serena and waited for her to continue She’d spent the better part of the last half hour giving him a piece of her mind Apparently she didn’t take too kindly to Trent Ra his nose in her club, which,as of late

Not that Luke cared that Trent was suddenly taking an interest in the club, but he’d have preferred thejust a little dramatic At least in his opinion

“I don’t want hi to face him with her hands on her hips

Luke stared back at the wo himself not to soing on between her and Trent, although she ht not even be aware of it It see a reaction in her and based on what he knew of Trent, he was probably doing it on purpose He got the impression the two of them didn’t care much for one another Not that it surprised him There was no way in hell that the two of theood pair because they were both the dominant, type-A personalities that would absolutely clash if they were to go head to head Sort of like now

“I’ll talk to hih You knoell as I do that he’s a h in, you’re just going to have to huh made the hairs on the back of his neck stand up Quite frankly, Luke wasn’t sure why Trent would be trying to piss her off, unless of course, he just wanted to see her like this Luke, on the other hand, did not want to have to have these conversations on a daily basis Considering the club was closed for the ti, he wasn’t even sure how the two of the this type of contact

“I will I’ll talk to hiive her a hint

Serena followed hirunt was all he got as she h the doorway and toward the doors that would lead down to the bar Grabbing his phone, Luke quickly sent Cole another text

Figuring he probably had a couple of minutes, Luke took a seat at his desk and pulled up his email By the ti a response to one of the reports Kane had provided on a recent application

“Give me just a ot food being sent up in a few minutes”

Cole didn’t respond, and Luke didn’t look up He finished typing his e in his chair to face the one man who had the ability to distract Luke like no one else

He still remembered the days when he tried to convince hied to suppress the deep rooted desire that sparked inside of his were between the in the saly sideorld back on an even keel
