CHAPTER 20 The Shadow T he bass from the music is all-consuming. It feels like the beat is coming from inside my chest. I never quite got used to the volume in clubs. I make my way through the throng of grinding couples, drunk girls shaking their asses, and obnoxious douchebags wearing too much cologne with a mountain of gel in their hair. Oh God, one even has his button-up parted so he can show off the gold chain dangling on his hairy, overly tanned chest.

She yelps, covering her body as she scrambles up and makes a run for it. “Hey,” I say calmly. She freezes, while the twins move into action, reaching for their own guns while Max quickly yanks up his slacks to cover his now flaccid dick. “Td appreciate it if you tuck the guns back in your pockets along with your dicks. None of you are my type. Unfortunately for you, I only have one, and she’s
