Forbidden Heat novel Chapter 334

“Don’t look so stiff. That frown on your face is going to chase all the hot guys away,” Kat teased when she came back to my side.

“There’re so many people here. Is it like this every night?” I asked in interest.

“Nope. It’s a lot busier on Fridays and the weekends,” Kat replied with a wry smile.

“Kat!” someone called her name and she responded with a wave of her hand right away.

“I’ve got to go take care of that. Can you take this to table 5? It’s over there…” Kat instructed before pointing a finger at table 5.

“Sure,” I replied before taking the tray of food from her hands.

“Thanks,” Kat said in a rush.

I watched Kat hurry out into the crowd of people and knew that this was the time when the place needed an extra pair of hands. As instructed, I headed over to table number 5 where a man dressed in a sleeveless black shirt was seated. Just like most male customers here, this man was ripped with muscles, and it was clear that he was a mercenary or soldier of some sort.

“Here’s your food, sir,” I said politely as I placed the tray down on the table.

I felt his eyes on me as I carefully transferred the dishes from the tray to the table in front of him. The way he watched me silently without saying anything made me feel slightly nervous. When I was done, I turned to smile at him before I was going to take my leave.

“Are you new here?” the man spoke up suddenly.

His voice was deep and a little raspy. I found his voice to be extremely sexy like those rockstar singers.

“Yes…” I replied honestly.

“I’m Charles,” he introduced himself as he stuck out a very large hand my way.

His brown eyes met mine and I was surprised at the kindness in them. I had to admit that his face and perfectly shaped lips only added to how hot he looked. After I’ve had enough of staring into his face, my eyes glanced down at the hand that he offered towards me. For a fleeting moment, I wondered if he would kill me if I shook his hand. Then my hand was reaching towards his because I figured that it was the other way around. He probably would kill me if I didn’t shake his hand.

“Natalia…” I said in a small voice.

“Watch out, Natalia. Some wolves are watching you at 5 o’clock,” Charles warned before he grinned at me.

“Oh…thanks…” I replied. I could feel their lecherous gaze on me too but thankfully, I was wearing pretty non-revealing clothes right now.

I flashed him a smile before heading back to where I came from. By the time I was back, Kat was already back.

“You spoke to Charles?” Kat asked.

I wasn’t sure what she was getting at, so I had to set the record straight.
