Chapter 10

"Ok everyone listen up!" Dave yelled as he stood behind is desk.

Everyone that would be working the club tonight for the VIP's was in his office for the meeting he had called. The only one who wasn't there was Katrina because Dave knew people would start to wonder why she always wore the mask around the people she worked with. So instead he had met with her earlier that day when he picked up his suit, Kaitlin's outfit, and Mackenzie's outfit.

"Tonight we have some very important people coming in tonight. They are all very wealthy men and are here for a bachelor party. These men are also very good friends of our head of security, John, so please be good tonight. We'll be closing at 1 am tonight. We'll also have our regular customers as well as our VIP. Some of you will be working on the bottom floor for our regular customers while the rest will be working on the top floor in VIP. Here are the assignments for our VIP. I want Randy and Jeff up there tending bar. As far as security goes I want John, Mark, and Glenn. Glenn I want you to keep an eye mostly on Delicious. I don't need anything happening to her. John you keep your eye on Star."

John nodded as Dave paused. While he might be the head of security, he was always paid a little extra to keep his eye on Dave's fiancée Kaitlin who was called Star when she danced.

"Maria I want you up there serving. As far as dancers go I want Candy, Star, and Delicious up there. Everyone else you get bottom floor." Dave said as everyone nodded.

Looking around the room he noticed some of the dancers looked mad that they weren't chosen for VIP. Dave knew they would get over it because he always used Kaitlin for VIP. For the other two spots he usually cycled through all the girls giving everyone a fair share. He had told Mackenzie earlier that he wanted her working upstairs with Candy (Candice), Kaitlin, and Delicious. He told her he wanted her to watch as they worked the VIP so she could learn. He told her to provide lap dances as well as helping Maria with serving.

"Ok remember tomorrow is Jeff's gallery showing at Waterfalls. For those of you who don't know where that art gallery is…it's next to Katrina's shop." Dave told everyone.

When he saw them nod, he continued.

"After the gallery show is over at nine, John is having a party at his house. This is just a regular party not an entertainment one." Dave finished and then let everyone know to get to work.

"Hey John wait…" He called out.

John waited until everyone left and then had a seat across from Dave.

"What's up big man?"

"I just wanted to let you know that on the days Katie takes off you will be the one watching Delicious. You will still be receiving your extra fee for this."

John nodded as he listened. He had a feeling Dave would ask this of him. He just hoped he could control himself around the masked woman. Every time he saw her dance, all he wanted to do was carry her off and have his way with her.

"Anything else man?" John asked before standing up.

"One last thing…how long have you worked for me John?"

"Since you opened up five years ago. Why?"

"You've worked for me longer than anyone here. I trust you the most out of all my employees. Of course you know that since I trust you to watch my fiancée."

John nodded wondering where this was going.

"Kaitlin and I have talked about her taking time off. She also thinks maybe I could use a day or two off as well when she has them. Plus I'll need to take time off for our honeymoon."

"I agree. You could use some time off man. You two are pretty much here day and night."

"Exactly. So my point is…I'm offering you the chance to be my partner. You would receive half of the profits, run the place while I am gone, help me run it while I am here, help me handle any hiring and firing, and help with decisions. You would have the office right next to mine."

John sat shocked at what all Dave just said.

"Isn't that Katie's office? I thought she was your partner also."

"Katie doesn't need her office. She is actually the one who suggested you have it since after mine it's the best one here. Katie never wanted to be a partner in the club. So I'm still full owner. If you need time to think that's fine."

"Fuck no I don't need time to think. I'll take it."

Dave smiled as he and John shook hands. He handed all the paperwork his lawyer had drawn up to John.

"Take this to your lawyer and have him look it over. Then bring him in with you tomorrow around noon. We'll sign everything and it will be official." Dave told his friend as they shook hands.

John nodded and left the office. He was so happy right now. He had to tell someone. At that thought, John frowned. The one person he wanted to tell was mad at him. He decided he would try to call her anyways and dialed Katrina's number.

"Hello?"

"Hey Kat…"

Katrina couldn't help but smile from where she was. She was glad she was still sitting in her car in Evolution's parking lot. If she had came in when John called her there might be a problem.

"Hi John. You sound really happy."

"I am Kat. Dave just offered me to be his partner. He's also giving me the option of paying him an amount and becoming co-owner of the club."

Katrina was happy for him. She knew that John had been interested in opening his own club someday. This would really help him.

"Congratulations John. I'm so happy for you. Why don't you come by my place tomorrow morning and we'll do breakfast to celebrate?"

John sighed. "I can't Kat."

"Oh…" Katrina said sadly.

"Remember my friend Rob?"

"The one we went to high school with?" Katrina asked.

"Yeah. Well he's getting married next weekend and his bachelor party is tonight at the club. After we leave here when it closes, we're headin to my place to hang out."

"Oh ok. Well some other time then. Gotta go John. Bye." Katrina said hanging up before he could speak.

John sighed again as he slid his phone shut. He had a feeling there was something going on with Katrina. Ever since their fight a few weeks ago, things just hadn't been the same with them. Katrina had seemed a little more secretive then she'd ever been. Plus she still seemed like she was mad at him. He put it out of his mind for the time being and got ready to work.
