one. We've got live acts lined up for every weekend for the next few months too." Rafe found us a table near the dance floor.

"Good to hear." I realized my toe was tapping. I did love to dance. I looked around and saw Trey had pulled Penny out on the floor. She was shaking her head and he was showing her some smooth moves.

"Trey's a nice guy. She could do a lot worse." Rafe slid his hand up to my shoulder.

"She's really confused right now. I have to keep a close eye on her because she has a sister . . ." I couldn't concentrate with Rafe's finger trailing up to my ear. "Rafe, stop it."

"Let's dance then." He pulled me onto the floor, and as if he'd willed it, the music changed to a slow song and the lights dimmed.

I looked up at him accusingly but he just grinned and shook his head, then pulled me close, his warm chest firmly against mine. It felt too damned good. And he danced too damned well. I gave in after I checked to make sure Penny was still on the dance floor. She was, with a dreamy look on her face. Hmm. Well, I'd make sure she went home with me. I leaned against Rafe, enjoying his heat and his own smooth moves.

"Jerry left town tonight," I murmured as I laid my head against his shoulder.

"Is that an invitation?" He ran his hand up my back, then down, but not so far that I felt compelled to stop him.

"No, just a heads-up. He's still upset with me, us, for what happened last time he left." I had my thumbs in Rafe's belt, my fingertips in his back pocket. His butt was a work of art I could visualize only too well.

"Yeah, I bet he is. It would take me a century to get over something like that. If ever." Rafe growled and nipped my ear. "So are you two taking a break?"

"I guess we are." I sighed. "Don't do that, Rafe, it drives me crazy."

"That's the plan." He licked the spot he'd bitten.

"I've got Penny in the spare bedroom now and she's only one reason I'm not going to be playing games in mine." I slid my hands up Rafe's back. The music was coming to an end and so was this conversation.

"And the other?" Rafe stopped dancing and pushed me back so he could look in my eyes.

"I have to be loyal to Jerry this time. I won't play him false again." I sighed.

"Sounds like you're doing penance instead of acting on your true feelings, Glo." Rafe ran his thumb over my cheek. "Keep me posted on how it goes. I'll be here."

"Uh, Glory, thought you might like to know." Trey was suddenly right next to us as the lights flashed and the music sped up.

"What, Trey?" I tore my gaze away from Rafe's and the urge to pull that thumb into my mouth.

"Penny said she was going to the ladies' room but she headed outside instead."

Chapter Four

"You're kidding me. She took a hike? How long ago was this?" I ran toward the door, Rafe right beside me. My fault. I'd let myself get distracted and hadn't kept an eye on her. Even going to the ladies' room had the potential to be dangerous. I should have warned Trey . . . Hindsight. Which wasn't worth my time.

"What's the problem, Glory?" Rafe stopped me with his hand on my shoulder.

"She has a twin sister. Hasn't told her yet and thinks the thing to do is to turn her." I glanced at a couple of mortals who were just leaving the club. "You know what I mean."

"She's just five minutes ahead of you. Maybe I can track her for you." Trey frowned. "I'm sorry. You should have told me you didn't want her to leave without you. I would have stopped her."

"No, it wasn't your job to ride herd on her, Trey." I sighed. "I need her sister's address. That's where I'll find her. At this time of night, Jenny will probably be asleep and Penny will have to wake her up to tell her. What a shock that will be." I turned to Rafe. "Can we use the computer in your office?"

"Sure, let's go." Rafe turned to Trey. "You're off the hook. But if you want to help, stay for closing because I'm going with Glory. Nadia's off tonight so it's on you." He tossed Trey a large key
