"That," Brutus said grimly as he clenched his jaw, watching Anun's golden aura disappear into the crowd, "is trouble. And the last thing we need is him sniffing around you."
The weight of Brutus's words crashed down on Delicious like a ton of bricks but she quickly regrouped. There was a message hidden in Brutus's words almost as if he was giving her a warning.
Delicious crossed her arms and rolled her eyes, irritation bubbling back to the surface. "Sniffing around me? Please! He ain't gonna find anything," She tilted her head, mocking Anun's earlier intensity. "Prince what's-his-name again?" she asked, raising her fingers to make exaggerated air quotations.

A strange look flickered in her eyes as she watched his slender back exit the club.
Delicious shook her head, her lips curling in frustration. "See? What kind of glow in the dark ass mess is that? Ugh! This man need to sign up to be street lamp because he brighten the place up," She huffed, crossing her arms tighter, but her eyes lingered on the fading glow for just a moment longer.
Brutus leaned closer, his expression softening as he looked at her. "You handled him well Delicious," he said quietly. "Most people wouldn't dare stand up to someone like him. I'm shocked you didn't pee in your pants and fall to your knees and worship!"
