Man-Eater (12 page)

“Thirty seconds, you’re on Charlize.”

Kendra loved the excitement backstage. But she also liked watching the show. Cyrus entered the dressing room. “You want to watch, babe?”

“Wouldn’t miss it,” Kendra purred.

They took a seat in the back of the club and watched as the lights came up. Charlize was in fine form today, her silver skirt and crop top accentuating her curves. Charlize headed directly for the pole, sensually grinding around it. My, that woman could da
nce, Kendra thought. Cyrus watched quietly, a little too quietly, and Ken
dra elbowed him playfully in the gut.

“What?” Cyrus asked.

“You know what.”

“Just looking, babe,” Cyrus said, draping his arm around her and kissing her on the cheek.

“I know you are.”

Charlize pulled herself up the pole and did a full butterfly rotation. Wow. The girl was good. And Kendra knew she wasn’t the only one who thought so. Roland sat two tables away and she saw the glow in his eyes. Kendra knew that glow, and she had no doubt Charlize saw the glow too. Kendra leaned in, speaking over the music into Cyrus’s ear.

“Roland seems to be enjoying himself,” Kendra said.

“No kidding,” Cyrus said.

“Looks like he’s got a thing for Charlize.”

Charlize slunk across the stage and did a little flourish. Roland smiled. Kendra saw the eye contact between them and Charlize’s eyes glowed as well. Charlize’s eyes never glowed on stage. It was a sign of mutual attraction.

“Looks like she’s got a thing for him too.”

Charlize, let her head hang back, sensually swaying around the pole, and Cyrus took Kendra’s hand in his. “Not half as much of a thing as I’ve got for you.”

“You mean that?”

“You know I do.”

And Kendra knew he did. Cyrus kissed her on the lips and Kendra fell into his embrace. Things had changed dramatically over the last few weeks. She’d gone from being on the run from her problems to being mated with her tiger, but even though things had changed, Kendra reflected, things were also the same. She was still the same tigress in heat on the side of the road where Cyrus had found her. The only difference now was that she had found what she was looking for. She had found her mate.

Kendra returned Cyrus’s kiss and wondered what the future held in store for Charlize. If it was anything like the beautiful union she had achieved with Cyrus, she could only hope Charlize’s future came soon. Because the love Kendra now felt in the embrace of her tiger was the most wonderful feeling ever. And she wanted Charlize to have that feeling too. She wanted the whole world to have that feeling.
