“That’s Danny!” Emma clapped her hands together.

“No, it’s not.” Jamie frowned. “Oh wait…it is.”

“Jesus.” Tyler stared in amazement.

Long dark hair swung in time with the slender hips.

“I love his shoes!” Mila grabbed Arden’s arm. “We have to get him to take us shoe shopping!”

Tyler choked on a laugh.

Danny, er Honey Deville, shook her hips, the silvery skirt swinging. Tyler couldn’t take his eyes off the sexy dancer, even knowing it was a guy. It was hard to believe Honey was really Danny.

Her face was made up with shiny red lips that smiled enticingly and deeply shadowed eyes with long eyelashes. And…that cleavage was incredible.

“Holy shit,” Liam said, also apparently unable to look away, his gaze following Honey as she danced down the long aisle of the supper club toward them.

Tyler met Jamie’s eyes and grinned.

At their table, Honey paused and gave them all a sultry smile and a wink, shaking her body, arms in the air. The girls all laughed with delight and clapped.

Honey danced on past them, swinging her hair, pausing to twerk her ass.

Tyler shook his head and rubbed his face.

“How does he move like that?” Arden asked.

The girls were grooving in their chairs to the catchy tune, watching with big smiles. Tyler glanced at Liam, taking in his dumbstruck look.

Then Honey dropped it low, and everyone in the club hooted and clapped.

Honey danced around the tables, pausing here and there to shimmy or do salsa dance steps to the immense enjoyment of the crowd. At one point, she brushed up against a man wearing a suit and a sheepish expression, then kissed his cheek. The man’s companions laughed and clapped.

When Honey finished, standing back near the curtain, the room erupted into cheers and applause. She waved and disappeared.

Another entertainer appeared through the curtain, holding a microphone. “That was our very own Honey Deville!” she said, resulting in more clapping. “Isn’t she amazing? Welcome to the Firefly Lounge and Supper Club! We are Chicago’s top supper club featuring the city’s most talented divas! I’m Candy Dish and I’m your hostess tonight! Let’s go hard!”

She set down the mic and began lip syncing and dancing to Kesha’s “We R Who We R.” She too was gorgeous, with long blond hair and killer curves in a short sequined purple dress.

The crowd once again was totally into the music and entertainment.

Tyler shook his head, grinning, and turned to look at Arden.

She met his eyes, hers full of laughter, still chair dancing. “This is so fun!”

“I can’t believe we’re doing this.”

She clasped his biceps in both hands and squeezed, leaning closer, and he wanted to bend his head, close the distance and kiss her. Aware of their friends around them, he didn’t, though he caught Jamie’s lifted eyebrows at Arden’s affectionate touch.

Yeah, he was gonna have some explaining to do to his buddy later.

When that show ended, they ordered dinner. Then Danny appeared, dressed in a different outfit, this one a sequined red dress. “Hey, everyone. Thanks for coming.”

“Dan—uh, Honey, you’reamazing!” Mila cried.

Danny smiled. “Thanks.”

“Honey’s one of our most popular girls,” the waitress said with a smile before leaving.
