Theo stepped up close behind her and she placed a staying hand on his chest. Behind Stefan, the two daaeman also moved a bit closer to protect their charge.

“Enjoying a night on the town?” Sarafina answered.

He motioned to the two hulking Atrika behind him. “Why not? It’s not like you can do anything to me here in a public place. Not while I have such muscle to defend me. I have an image to uphold, after all.” He pulled the redhead close to him. She smiled and simpered up at Sarafina. “There are paparazzi everywhere. You can do nothing.”

He wasn’t lying. The photographers lounged along the bar, one eye always on Stefan. Anywhere Stefan went, so did the photo hunters. To the non-magickal world, Stefan was a God among men. He sneezed, and his snot made first-page news.

Sarafina raised an eyebrow. “Think what you will. I’m glad you’re having fun, Stefan. That’s good. You should take advantage of the time you have left.”

Stefan rolled his eyes. “Did you come here to talk trash? Shall we unzip our pants and compare our cocks? I guarantee mine is bigger.”

The redhead giggled. Mindless twit.

“I think Isabelle would disagree,” Jack answered with a grin. Isabelle was the only one of them who had firsthand—literally—experience with the size of Stefan’s equipment.

Stefan’s face shuttered, and he took a long drink of his cocktail. “Do you have a reason for tracking me down? Didn’t you get enough of me in Kentucky?”

Sarafina stalked over to Stefan, yanked his chair out, and leaned in close. Her anger had flared at the insolent look in his eyes and the practiced boredom in his voice. His bodyguards moved in, but Stefan waved them away with a cocky smile on his face.

“Let’s stop playing games, shall we?” Sarafina said. “Tell us what spell you’re trying to cast.”

Stefan laughed. “How delusional. Do you think I’d actually tell you? Do you think you intimidate me?”

Sarafina moved around Stefan’s chair so that the warlock faced her, then she slammed her foot between his legs. Leaning down close to his ear, she announced, “I haven’t even tried yet.”

“Oh, ho! Sarafina!” Stefan purred with a saucy smile. “I did not realize you were so attracted to me. If I had known we could have had a quickie in the limo.”

“Shut up.”

An explosion sent a wave of all four elements through the club, making the patrons scream and scatter. Things were going according to plan.
