Luxe Club

Luxe Club was the kind of place where the music thrummed through the floors, the air smelled of expensive perfume and bad decisions, and the lighting was just dim enough to make regret look attractive.

Chayara hated it here.

Not because she was a prude...far from it. But because Queen turned into a walking disaster after two drinks. Not the crying, dramatic kind of drunk, but the reckless, I-can-do-anything-and-I-will kind. And since Queen had no off-switch, Chayara had made it her sacred duty to be her unofficial babysitter.

She sighed as they slid into their reserved booth. Luxe was an exclusive club, which meant overpriced cocktails, influencers taking moody selfies, and a suspicious number of men who looked like they were either oil tycoons or professional heartbreakers.

As expected, Queen was immediately the center of attention.
