“Lucky bitch.” Mel says under her breath, and I whisper, “Where’s she going?”

“Private party, by the looks of it.” Mel replies.

“Where?” I’m astonished and she whispers, “They have private rooms out the back. If you’re approached by a guy and you like the look of him, you can carry it on behind closed doors.”

“Carry on?”

This world is unreal, and she grins.

“Fuck, baby. That’s why we come here. One night of unadulterated pleasure with no strings attached.”

“Isn’t it a bit risky, though?” I’m concerned, and Mel shrugs.

“Not really. Most people are vetted and know the score and if anyone steps out of line, they are removed.”

I think about my own experience last night and wonder if my rescuer works here. He must do and saw what was happening and stepped in.

Another guy whispers in Janice’s ear and she follows him with a cheeky wink. I’m a little concerned as the wolves start circling and as the remaining two girls are whisked away, I down a glass of champagne in one and reach for my purse.

I should go.

As I stand, a hand on my shoulder forces me back to my seat and a low husky voice whispers, “Where are you going?”

His voice slides over my soul like nails on a chalkboard. I feel every single one of them and my breath is ragged as I whisper, “I know you.”

“Do you, my little dove. I’m guessing you don’t, otherwise you wouldn’t have returned.”

I want to turn so badly, but his breath is hot against my ear as he whispers, “So, you are looking for excitement.”

“What makes you say that?” I reply, although I curse my stupid words as he chuckles softly.

“Call it a hunch, beautiful. One night could be a mistake, but two would be deliberate. What are you here for if it isn’t for the unknown?”

I gasp as his fingers brush against my neck, and he whispers, “The question is, what are we going about that?”

My mouth dries and my heart beats faster as I whisper, “I’m open to suggestions.”

His lips brush against my ear as he says gruffly, “If you want excitement, you’ve come to the right place.”

“Then what are we waiting for?”

I am delirious with anticipation because this is the most dangerous thing I have ever done and as he trails his finger along my spine, he growls, “Okay, follow me.”

CHAPTER 4

MELISSA

He guides me past the crowded tables where men are gawping at a couple of women on the stage. They are providing a floor show I am trying not to stare at and as the stranger walks behind me, I wonder what I’m getting into.

I’m surprised when he directs me to the exit and as we pass through the door, he pushes me outside into the dark, chilly night.

“What–” I make to speak, and he spins me around, causing me to face plant a strong chest and his huge arms wrap around me.

Then he leans down and whispers, “A quick fuck in Dark Shadows isn’t what a woman like you deserves.”

I beg to differ because that’s exactly what I was looking for and he growls huskily, “I have a much more suitable place in mind.”

My heart beats furiously as I whisper, “Where?”
