         Part 17

  We walked out of King of Klubs where we all noticed a car parked out front.
  I could see that it was dark in color, and a real nice ride.
  The man standing next to it was tall, wearing a white collar shirt with dark slacks,. The blazer went well with the cowboy boots he wore.

  I can't deny that his fitted pants looked nice on him, and Mina's smile told me that she was thinking the same.

   Judging by his physique, I'd say that he works out.
Husky, blonde shoulder length hair pulled back in a ponytail, his face appeared gentle, but serious.
  His eyes were a light grey, maybe green.
He had a thin mustache, a little darker than his hair. It didn't quite cover his lips, and a trimmed goat-tee added a bad boy look to his gentle face.

Where did he come from I wondered. I certain that he wasn't here tonight because Mina would have been all over this one.

  Mina, and I looked at each other as Sam came and stood by me, while Ben stood in front.
  Looking like he could be someone's bodyguard, the guy took a few steps foward.

Ben said,

  Sam looked at me and started to say,
  " Shannon I don't think...."
  I cut him off with a wave of my hand.
I asked looking towards the car.
" Is your boss with
you?"
He replied,
" No ma'am, I am alone."

  I walked towards the edge of the entrance platform.

I said,
  " I see, well Malekai, is it? Kindly tell your boss that I appreciate his concern for my safety, but I already have a ride home."

I started to back away, then I added,
  " My apologies to you Malekai for the wasted trip you had to make."
He asked,
  " Are you sure
Ms. Shannon, it really isn't out of my way."
I said,
  " Absolutely!"
  He went to his car, and I asked Mina,
  "Are you ready girl?"

  With her jaw dropped, Mina was trying to find her voice. I snapped my fingers in front of her face.

I said,
"Hello, earth to Mina!"
