Chapter 13: Sofia

As soon as Drew disappears around the corner, I make my way to the bouncer and smile. “Hi, Lucas.”

He straightens to his full height when he recognizes me. At six foot four and two hundred and fifty pounds, Lucas is a big dude. There aren’t many people who want to mess with him. Which is exactly why my brother hired him. “Hey, Ms. Bianchi,” he replies. “How you doing tonight?”

The boss would have my ass if I didn’t usher you inside pronto.” He leans in and says, “He’d have my head right now if he knew you were standing out on the street by yourself.” Brows drawing together, he twists his thick neck from side to side. “You here with someone, Ms. B?”
