Once her favourite hangout spot, she started to avoid the place after falling out with Cassie. But finally being back and being reminded of just how much she loves it here immediately makes that decision feel like a foolish one.
Three men in tuxedos approach Nikki, and bow respectfully. “Ms. Kade, our extra special VIP. We’ve been expecting you. It’s an honour to be in your presence,” says the one in the middle, raising his voice to be heard over the booming music emanating from the club’s dance floor.
Nikki starts laughing. The text she received promised this was ‘Nikki Kade Appreciation Night’ in honour of her birthday, and so far, it seemed that promise was coming through. “Did Cassie put you guys up to this?” Nikki asks.
The middle tuxedo shakes his head. “No, your sister is out of the country. Left as soon as her obligations in the WWA B1 Tournament were complete.”
Nikki raises a brow. So her initial assumption earlier that Cassie had nothing to do with that text she received was correct. But if not her, then who? “Where did Cassie go to, anyway?” Nikki asks. “Checking on business back home in Ireland?”
“No, she’s heading to Japan. No word on why. But we’re not here to talk about your sister, Ms. Kade. We’re here to take care of you, our guest of honour! Now please, let us escort you to your private table.”
