Shadows In Durango

Chapter 39

*****Vincents POV*****

I make a quick move towards the VIP lounge staircase, moving my grip to Sofias wrist this time to give her bicep a break since it looked to be turning purplish.

She was coming with me, to confront this fucker and to confirm what really happened tonight.

Climbing up the steps quickly, I turn when Sofia almost trips up due to the pace I was going.

I pause and glance her over once to see if she was hurt before proceeding up the steps satisfied that she was fine.

I'm going to fucking kill him.

"EVERYBODY LEAVE - GO SIT DOWNSTAIRS TONIGHT!" I demand loudly, gaining the attention on the four seated tables along with Reid who looks stunned from behind the bar.

Waiting a moment as they quickly gather their drinks and know not to question my orders further, I move aside to allow each of them to pass me, leaving us alone.

Having the floor cleared, I turn my attention back to the problem facing us: Reid.

Dragging Sofia along with me, Reid runs a hand down his face to suggest that he was either now worried or stressed.

He was the one who wanted to play with fire tonight... like a fool!

"YOU PUT HER UP THERE TO DANCE?!" I deadpan, as Reid looks to Sofia before returning his stare to me seeming to decide on what to do next.

"She wanted to and offered to help..." Reid shrugs, as I turn to Sofia furiously, knowing that somebody here was fucking lying to me.

"I didn't offer! I came up here to start my shift and he was already behind the bar before he said that you wanted me down there to dance tonight!" Sofia defends herself although her words are quiet and nervous.

She was telling the truth, from what I could tell anyway. Reid was known to cause trouble, I was just surprised that he would do it with me, in my own fucking bar too when he was supposed to be one of my close friends. "Reid don't fucking play with me!" I warn, my eyes narrowing as he visibly rolls his in response, acting as though it was just some light hearted fun. He's an idiot.

"Look, I thought it would be funny putting her up there. I didn't think she could dance. I figured she would just get upset and would go home - maybe even quit!" Reid eventually admits his fault, as I release Sofias wrist and move behind the bar.
