Adore Me (Austin Singles 3)

“I will! Bye.”
Turning on my heels, I headed to the door. The desire to turn back and look at Blake nearly had me doing just that. Instead, I pulled out my phone and picked up my pace.
I SAT THERE like an idiot while her words replayed in my head.
“Everything okay?” Butch asked, pulling me out of my daze.
“No, I need to go after her.”
“Took you long enough to figure that out.”
Standing, I pulled out a twenty. “What?”
“Never mind paying. Your money is no good here. Make sure she’s okay.”
I headed toward the door.
“Blake.”
Turning, I looked at Butch. “You hurt her, I’ll kill you.”
All I could do was nod and rush out the door.
Morgan stood there with her back to me as she waited on an Uber. I watched as the car drove up and she opened the back door and slid in. I was right behind her.
“Change of plans,” I said, pushing her farther into the car.
“Blake, what are you doing?” she cried out.
Smiling at the driver, I said, “Do you know a place called Jax’s?”
He smiled. “Hell yes, I do.”
“Jax’s? The underground club for members only?” Morgan asked.
With a smirk, I replied, “Just the place you need, princess.”
“Just the place I need? If you think I will hook up with some random guy, you are crazy.”
The driver’s eyes jerked up to look at us in the rearview mirror before he pulled out into traffic.
I laughed and leaned back, giving Morgan a quick look. She stared at me.
“I’m going home.” She crossed her arms over her chest. My cock jumped at the sight.
“You’re not going home, Morgan. We’re going out. You want a night to forget everything? Fine. I’m giving you a night to forget everything.”
I could practically see the steam coming from her ears. “Fuck you, Blake. I don’t want your pity fuck.”
“Oh damn,” the driver said.
“How is taking you to a dance club a pity fuck?”
Her cheeks turned red, and she looked out the window. Shit. She thought I was turning her dow
n again. God, this was why I avoided this with her. I would end up fucking things up.
“Jax’s is a pretty cool place. It’s only for the wealthy, so I hope you have connections,” the driver said.
