"I never walk away from a challenge." I smirked at him.

I greeted Jasper as he got out of his car and we went inside. The club was already full and I sighed knowing that it was going to be a long night. Having a nightclub was not as easy as I thought it would be. Working and saving up money for my dream business was a nightmare but starting it was worse. I spent all my money to get a good location and a big place. I had no idea that a club would need so many things; conditioning, painting, plumbing, electrical, cash reserves, kitchen equipment, interior design and hundreds of other expensive stuff. The grand opening was 4 months ago and after that the club was full every night, especially on weekends. I had more than 5000 customers every day. The line was a killer, I had to hire and fire waitresses and bartenders every month. They were either professional and rude or nice and clumsy. It was extremely hard but it was worth it. I had karaoke and games section, strip club section was in another studio; however, I came up with the idea of a strip dance competition every Saturday, people absolutely loved it.

Three months ago I opened a website and few celebrities started to visit once in a while. Some days they rented the club and went crazy the whole night. I didn't mind though; I got lots of money. What I didn't have enough of, were nerves and sleep. Managing and staying up whole night was exhausting. But at the same time I wouldn't trade it with anything.

I loved the darkness and hundreds of flashing lights through the loud and rhythmic music. I loved to hear people have fun and enjoy what I've created; it made me feel good to know that they come to my place to get away from their life and problems. I had the best DJ; and once in 2 weeks I had a live concert. My new bartender Seth was a very kind guy. I was happy to hire him. My customers were always satisfied with whatever he made for them, and they enjoyed communicating with him. Sometimes girls flirted with him and with my permission he made a special drink for both of them. He was happy for getting attention and I was happy for having costumers.

My best friend Jasper helped me a lot and I know I wouldn't be able to do it without him. We have been best friends since high school. We went to different universities. He got a master's degree and became a psychologist; our apartments were a few streets away from each other. Sometimes when he was too depressed he would come to the club and help me. He said it made him feel alive to get away from miserable and sick people and communicate with the happy ones. I never understood how he could survive with listening to people's problems and see their depressed faces every day. But Jasper always had a calm and understanding personality. It made people open up to him and he always found a way to help them. I knew it was a perfect job for him because he had lots of patients and he was pretty famous. He even published a book 2 years ago. The problems and depressions of others' didn't affect him often though. That was one of his talents. He managed to control his feelings and not let others mess it up. I wasn't like that at all. That's why I worked in a place where people were always happy and were having fun.

Jasper and I went to the VIP section to have a drink and then get to work. A blonde waitress named Vanessa came up to us and smiled.

"Hi Sir." I smiled back and she turned to Jasper. "Mr. Jasper." Jasper nodded back. "What can I get for you gentlemen?"

"We'll have two Whisky Sours, please." Even though I was her boss I couldn't stop myself from being polite. I'm not saying the boss should be rude to his workers but he should be strict. But I was only strict when I was pissed. When I was drunk and happy I would raise their salary. Vanessa said ok and left.

We watched at the dance floor to see what people were doing. This became a game between two of us. We would find the funniest ones who dances like a robot and chuckle at them. Or we would find sexy girls and check them out. Sometimes I flirted and had sex with them for one night, but Jasper wasn't interested in that kind of stuff. Especially this last week, He told me how he met a woman at Coffee Bean, and couldn't stop thinking about her. First I was annoyed with him for not asking for her number and just leaving without even knowing her name. But this was Jasper, he remained calm and believed if she was the one then they would meet soon.

I didn't believe in this whole "The One" shit. I've had three girlfriends during high school and university, I broke up with my last ex two years ago, and her name was Tanya. At first she was fun, we went to Miami together and it was one of the best weeks in my life, we would have sex three times a day, she was gorgeous and smelled great. Four months later I saw her in my apartment with another man. I was mad and hurt and disgusted.

I promised myself to never take another woman seriously. So as I started my business I met lots of women, drank alcohol, took them to a hotel and fucked. I wasn't a player, I just had sex with different women 4 times a week and they didn't mind. They did the same thing too. But this year I got bored and just went on a break. I was tired of having sex with someone I didn't even know. I wanted to make love; I wanted sex to mean something more than just a cock inside of pussy. I wanted to feel passion and love. Well that wasn't happening either. So I just got used to my life as it included only my work, friends and family. No girlfriend for now.

Vanessa brought us our drink and we continued our little game. We watched how people danced, I spotted two women in black dresses, the short one had black hair and the other one was a little bit taller but still had a petite body. She had long brown curls moving down her waist as she shook her head and swayed her curvy hips. Her eyes were closed and her pouty red lips were slightly open. It was one of the most erotic looks I have ever seen. But I was wrong. The moment she opened her eyes her expression became 10 times sexier. She had beautiful and sexy eyes, I felt myself being pulled towards her like a magnet. I imagined myself walking from behind her, putting my hands on her waist and kissing her neck, I would smell her hair and then spin her around and kiss those full delicious lips. She would moan and wrap her tiny hands around my neck and I would take her to my place and fuck her the whole night.

"Dude, look over there." I showed Jasper the spot she was dancing at. Jasper searched and tried to find the one I was talking about. His eyes widened and he gasped.

"Oh my God, that's my coffee bean girl! She is here!" What the fuck? I hate my luck! I felt disappointment and depression took over me as I realized my best friend was attracted to same girl. Well he saw her first, and he was like a brother to me, if he liked her then I would stay out of his way. When they got married I would be the best man and I would be happy for him. Ugh again like I said, fuck my life.

"I love her black hair," Jasper sighed and said dreamily. Wait what?

"Black hair? Jasper she is a brunette. " Was he becoming color blind? I knew psychologist will mess up his health sooner or later, I've told him so many ti-

"Brunette? No Edward I mean the girl in front of her!" Jasper stared at me like I was crazy. The biggest relief washed over me and I exhaled a breath that I was holding. Yes! He wasn't attracted to my brunette, I could have her if I wanted, my mood was back and now I was up for a challenge. I gave Jasper a devil look and his expression turned confused.

"What. Are. You. Planning?" He narrowed his eyes with suspicious face.

"I'm gonna help you take that girl home tonight, brother." I grinned. Jasper looked excited and grinned back. We got up and went to our office. I knew if I left it to Jasper we would let her go again without even talking to her. We needed a simple plan; so he wouldn't be shy. And he would be more confident if I was around and helped him through it.

We stood in front of the monitor screens on hidden cameras. I had 15 of them. And now we were watching the one that had our two girls in it. They were standing in front of the bar and talking. My brunette looked worried and it seemed like she was trying to comfort her friend.

"What's wrong with her?" Jasper drama queen was suddenly waking up. The last time I saw him like this was when he called me and told he left the café without talking to her. It took me 30 minutes to assure him that she wouldn't think he is a loser and that he did a good thing by winking at her and then leaving. I told him it showed attraction but also said that he is not trying too hard. Jasper didn't buy it, hell even I didn't buy it, but it was all I could do. Now I knew exactly what we have to do and we weren't going to let them leave this place until we talked to them. Suddenly I saw two guys approaching them. One of them took Alice's hand and I saw Jasper's face become furious as he clenched his hands into tight fists. I wanted to calm him down but freezed as I saw a tall blonde pig gesture to my girl to go dance with him. I gritted my teeth and my eyes burned with fury. No one takes away my woman!

"What the fuck?" I growled. "Who are this dipshits?" We watched the other screen of the dance floor and spotted them dancing. The short haired girl was just jumping up and down and laughing, they were acting goofy. "Jasper you can calm down, they are not sexually attracted, looks like she is playing with a kinder garden kid." Then I watched the sexiest women in the world dancing with a jerk. He was constantly trying to dry hump her but she always pulled away. Finally she got annoyed pushed him back and stormed off to the bar. I walked back to the bar screen to see her, Jasper stood where he was and watched her girl dancing with a nerd with the saddest look on his face. The sexy and now angry brunette was sitting alone and I saw Seth approach him. Alice joined her a few minutes later. It was now or never.

"Jasper I'm gonna go take Seth's place and you come in 5 minutes. I'll introduce you to them, you buy her a drink and talk ok?"

"Ok" Jasper nervously took a deep breath and exhaled, I rested my hand on his shoulder.

"Don't worry, everything is going to be fine, come on we don't have time, wait here and join us in 5 minutes." I said again this time firmly as I looked at him and left the office. My heart started to beat faster as I walked towards the bar. Her delicate back was facing me and It took me all my strength to stop myself from spinning her bar stool around, picking her up and- I broke out of my thoughts as I came closer. Seth noticed me.

"Thank you Seth, I'll take it from here. You can go on your break now." I said in my professional voice as I walked behind the bar. I saw her eyes on me but didn't look back yet.

"Yes sir, goodnight. I'll see you tomorrow." He smiled at her and left. Now was the time. I looked at her and smiled. Oh God, too hot. She was too sexy for her own good. Sexy wasn't enough to describe her, she was beautiful. How could a woman look vulnerably gorgeous at naughty sexy at the same time? I could look at her face and admire her every part until she would call the cops and they would take me to mental hospital. She slowly crossed her legs and my eyes hungrily followed them. The creamy skin made my mouth water and I felt myself getting hard. My eyes went up to her breasts. Not too big and not too small; they looked so delicious and soft. Her red lips were full and ready to kiss. The chocolate eyes killed me with their fierceness. I saw a light pink blush cover her high cheekbones but she recovered quickly and smirked at me. That only turned me on more.

"Hello, my name is Edward." I said politely and shook her hand. I felt my arm's hair get goose bumps from her touch, even a little part of her skin touching my own felt so intimate; I couldn't imagine what would happen if our naked bodies pressed to each other. The innocent devil smiled at me.

"Bella." I finally heard her voice. It was what I expected…Sexy and beautiful. Her name really matched her but I bet she got that line thousand times before; so I didn't mention it. I shook my best friend's lover's hand too, her name was Alice; she looked very nice. I was glad Jasper found a good and beautiful woman. He better come soon or I will kick his ass. Some customers came towards me and I called my waiters to help me around the bar. Two guys came and started to take their order. I checked if everything was in its place and looked at Bella.

"So what was Seth making for you?"

"I ordered Diamond Margarita, but if you have better suggestions feel free to make it." She said confidently. Oh I have a better suggestion but it's not for drinking. Although tasting her wouldn't be a bad idea either. I had to stop myself before my erection was too visible. But she started to trace her red colored fingernails lightly on her collarbone and I growled. Thank God it was too low for her to hear. She tilted her head and slightly parted her lips. First I thought she was trying to play; but her eyes looked too innocent, maybe she didn't realize that what she did was incredibly sexy.

I'll show her sexy.

I leaned on my elbows and moved a little bit closer. She smelled like freesias. It was a light and delicious smell, and I bit my lip to stop myself from licking it. I said with a husky voice.

"Well it depends…" She looked surprised. "Do you like a challenge or would you like something more simple? Maybe easier for you? " I knew that would drive her nuts and she would agree with whatever I dared her to do just to prove me wrong. She glared at me, just as I expected and said.

"I never walk away from a challenge." She raised her eyebrow, I swear that was the hottest angry look ever, She was a turn on machine, made precisely for my two batteries and one remote control. I still had 2 minutes before Jasper would join us; I said.

"Have you ever tried 'Zombie?'?" I regretted the idea even though it was already out of my mouth. Stupid asshole! Now she is going to think you are trying to make her drunk; that fucking drink is too strong for her! The voice inside my head screamed at me. Her eyes became confused at my expression; I raised my eyebrows, waiting for her answer. I knew there was no turning back. To my surprise she raised her eyebrow again, this time smirking at me.

"Seriously? That's your lame challenge? Why don't you just give me a cup of tea?" She leaned back on her chair and look at her nails, obviously bored with my suggestion. I was probably looking like a fish, with my mouth open. Jasper couldn't even finish that drink; he went crazy and sang "Hot and cold" for me the whole night. But I found a perfect excuse.

"Well, I didn't want to make you drunk." I said. A part of it was true; I didn't want to act like a jerk. She looked taken aback and I felt insulted. Did she really think that was my plan? "Why are you surprised? Is that what you thought I was gonna do?" I couldn't stop myself from asking, for some reason I wanted to know exactly what she thought of me.

"N-no, of course I wasn't" She stammered and batted her eyelashes, although I was sure she didn't do it to look attractive, it was a reflexive movement of surprise and confusion. "I was just expecting you to offer a stronger drink, since you did take it as a challenge." Her little smile returned to her face and I saw Alice giggle next to her. She was pretending like she wasn't watching but it was obvious she was our audience.

"Yeah, it was a challenge." I grinned at her. "But I'm not going to offer a stronger drink; even my friend Jasper can't drink the whole glass!" I looked at Alice as I said his name, she was texting with her phone but she looked up quickly without thinking with a surprised look on her face. Huh, so she was attracted to him too? This was going to be easier than I thought. I smiled at Alice. "Just don't tell him I told you." I chuckled. She pretended to look nonchalant and uninterested but I could see through her eyes that she was too excited to calm herself down.

"I don't even know him" She muttered and looked at Bella. Bella didn't show any emotion, I guess she didn't want to let her friend down. I let it go as soon as I saw Jasper approaching us.

"I know, but he is coming our way right now, so don't mention it please." I smiled at them, and pretended to ignore Alice's shocked face, Bella smiled at her and winked. God I love her confidence. I wonder if she will be the same confident devil in bed or will she show her vulnerable side? I wish it was both…Jasper magically looked very confident as he walked towards Alice and smiled at her. 'That's my boy' I thought to myself… 'Work it, work it,ugh shake that booty! Now stand… pose… and smile!' I felt like Tyra Banks on ANTM. He sat next to her and looked at me.

"Hey Edward, what's up?" He was one hell of an actor when he wanted to be. I wanted to laugh but controlled myself.

"Ladies, this is my friend Jasper." I motioned with my hand as I introduced them. "Jasper this is Alice and Bella." Jasper shook Alice's hand.

"Nice to meet you Alice." He smiled, and then looked at Bella. "You too, Bella." He couldn't reach her hand from where he sat, and for some reason, I was glad for that. Bella smiled back and nodded. Jasper talked again.

"Edward why didn't you give ladies drinks yet?" He smirked at me. Oh so that's how you want to play Jasper? You trying to make me look rude huh? After all the things I have done for him, he broke my heart again and betrayed me. Hmm I think the whisky and Bella's perfume was getting to my head.

"Actually Bella wanted to drink 'Zombie' but I told her it was so strong that you couldn't even finish it." Take that mother fucker! I smirked back, and the girls giggled. Double bonus! Muahahaha.

Jasper's expression turned serious and he glared at me.

"Oh you want to bet?"

Bella and Alice were turning their heads from me to Jasper; clearly enjoying it. They looked like they were watching a tennis game. I knew that the drink wouldnt be too strong for us; but I didn't mind; because I had to manage the whole club and I couldn't do it if I was completely drunk. Jasper knew it too, but we just wanted to play around and have fun.

"Bring it on!" I laughed and we punched our fists together. I turned to get the drink before Alice yelled.

"Hey! Don't think you guys are playing without us." She said firmly. Bella nudged her with her elbow.

"Wait Alice, let them have the challenge" She grinned. "We'll have our own, after them." Then she looked at me and smirked. "And you, Edward…" I loved the way she said my name, I couldn't wait for her to scream it when I made her come. "…You are gonna give us exactly what we order, deal?" How the fuck could I say no to that? And besides, she was my customer after all. I winked and smiled.

"Deal." I went to get drinks to make the 'zombie' and when I came back; Jasper and Alice were completely into their own little conversation. I smiled at Jasper, glad that he finally talked to her. Bella was checking her phone, that's what we all did when we were alone and had nothing else to do right? She looked back at me and smiled. I opened the conversation.

"Do you know how to make it?" I said as I put 2 glasses on the table. Was it a lame question? How would she know it if the bartenders always made it for her. Very Smooth Edward.

"Pineapple and lime juice, dash sugar syrup, apricot brandy and three types of rum." She said quickly looking straight in my eyes; she held three fingers and closed them one by one as she said the names. "Dark, white and Gold Spiced" She smiled triumphantly.

"Very impressive" I raised my eyebrows and smiled. I poured all the things she said in a shaker; filled half of it with ice and started to shake. I noticed her checking out my arm muscles as they flexed. She looked back at me and said quietly.

"I'm a big fan of cocktails" Remove the 'tails' of the word cocktails and add 'your' in front of it, please. I gulped at the images that formed in my head but Bella's voice brought me back to reality.

"So are you the manager of the club?"

"I'm the owner." I smiled.

"Oh" She looked surprised "That's very impressive." Hell yeah it is, I smiled proudly and said 'thank you' she added. "So you don't sleep at night at all?" I laughed at her question; it was kind of cute and childish.

"I do in the morning, but not too much, I'm used to it though, so it doesn't bother me." She looked shocked.

"Are you kidding me; I love sleeping and if anything or anyone takes it away from me they know they are gonna regret it." She glared at Alice as she said the last part; that in return giggled and turned to Jasper again. I laughed again, it felt so natural and comfortable to talk to her, I realized we had stopped flirting and was surprised that we still had something to talk about. Most of the women I've talked with were boring. It felt like I have to try very hard to think about a topic and whenever I came up with it they returned a stupid reply.

"What do you mean?" I laughed. I wanted to know how she got revenge on them.

"Well one time I changed Alice's tooth paste with foot cream, the day Rosalie-my friend-woke me up I drew on her face that night with a marker" We laughed at the same time and she continued "And I waxed Emmet's leg one time-"

"Who's Emmet?" I felt the jealousy burn in me, did she have a boyfriend? I couldn't picture a different guy touching and kissing her. I didn't want to imagine it. I hope she took my question as a curiosity and not jealousy. I didn't want to freak her out. She looked at me for a moment and then shook her head.

"Rosalie's boyfriend, they are at Fiji now…on vacation" She added, probably trying to change the topic.

"Ah, I envy them…I love that place" I said as I poured the drink in our glasses. Jasper and Alice turned their attention to us and I noticed they were sitting a little bit closer to each other. I gave the drink to Jasper and made a toast.

"For you ladies" and "let this night be wonderful" Jasper and I raised our glasses, looked at each other and I said. "Go!" The drink burned my throat and I wrinkled my face, but I saw Jasper drinking bravely as Alice cheered him. Bella just laughed at videotaped the whole thing. I wasn't going to lose so I drank faster until the last drop, knowing that I might regret it later, but I couldn't stop the stupid teenager in me. Jasper and I smacked the glasses on the table furiously at the same time and breathed. I felt the alcohol go down, Jasper's eyes were crazy. Alice and Bella screamed and cheered. Bella turned off the camera.

"Are you guys ok? Your faces' are red!" she giggles at our weakness, so Jasper and I straightened up and smiled.

"Actually, that felt good." I told Jasper, his redness was going away but I could see the excitement due to the alcohol in his eyes. Alice cut us off though.

"Ok enough! I've been here for almost an hour and haven't had a drink yet, Bella what are we gonna have?" She looked at Bella, who turned her face to me.

"We'll have 'Bastard on the Beach' please" She smirked at me and my expression went blank.

No.

It was too strong. I couldn't let her drink it. What if something bad happens? What if her body doesn't accept it? What if they do something crazy, like rob a moll or a bank? She noticed my expression and raised her sexy eyebrow.

"You mister, don't have the right to say no." Now I was sure I looked pissed as I gritted my teeth.

No.

I said in my mind again. As if she could read what I thought. She leaned forward with puppy dog eyes, also giving me a view of her soft and creamy breasts. The drink was making my head light and it was hard to think straight. She batted her eyelashes at me and played with my collar with her fingertips.

"Edward" She looked innocently at me and signed my name. "Don't disappoint me…I'm a big girl and I can handle whatever you give me." Her words turned me on faster than my ex's naked body. I felt my cock harden as I gripped the glass but let it go before I broke it. I breathed loudly and felt my resolve getting crumbled under her gaze. I exhaled the air that I was holding and stepped back to get the shots. I heard Bella and Alice squeal behind me.

Bella will be the death of me…

Did i tell you i love reviews? Tell me what you think =]
