Chapter Two
Still at Club Rogue...
“Are you lost, little one?”
Aria Harper startled at the deep voice resonating through her as she hesitated outside the imposing entrance into Club Rogue.
“No, I’m just... oh!” For the briefest of moments, Aria lost her breath as she glanced over her shoulder at the man behind her. Not due to his Goliath size but rather the sharp, penetrating gaze from the lightest azure eyes she had ever seen. “Ahem,” she cleared her throat as the sound that escaped her lips sounded like a frog that had a severe cold.
“I was just admiring the architecture. I’m not sure what I expected, but the intricate Celtic designs crafted on the pillars are breathtaking. Not really what one would expect to find at the entrance of a... a...” she stuttered as she looked around. A cold shiver danced down her spine as she realized the street and the parking area in front of the club were empty. She was alone with a man who could easily snap her in two without breaking a sweat or using two hands. Her eyes followed the sardonic lift of one eyebrow. A hot blush bloomed over her cheeks as she noticed the amusement flashing in his gaze.
“Yes? In a...” he prodded when she didn’t continue.
“A sex club.” The assertive retort was offered, with her cute little button nose inching upward. If Goliath’s look-a-like thought she was intimidated by his size, he had a surprise coming.
“Let me guess,” he smiled indulgently as his eyes grazed lazily over her frame. “It’s your first time at a BDSM club.”
“No, it’s not.” Her eyes drifted back to the pillars hugging either side of a large carved dark-wood door. Aria wasn’t sure whether it was imposing or frightening. Either way, it left her insides feeling as if there were hundreds of butterflies fluttering with their wings, tickling her stomach as they went. “But it is my first time at such an exclusive and obviously luxurious club.” Her emerald gaze returned to him. “You have to admit, it screams money and power.”
“Dominance is power, little one, and once you set a foot inside that door, it’s knowing unequivocally that you’re ready to offer that power to another.” His head tilted sideways. “If you’ve only played at small, unassuming clubs, you might be chewing off more than you can handle. In here, you’ll only find Dominants who, once you’ve given them the trust to dominate you, they take control. The only way they will stop is with the use of your safe word, so be sure to have one you won’t forget.”
“What submissive would ever forget her safe word?” she said in a snippy voice.
“Believe me, little dove, in there, it happens more often than not.”
For the first time since she had passed the submissive course at Club Decadence in San Francisco, the usually cool, calm, and collected Aria Harper, aka Sanchigo, felt insecure. The training master at the club had warned her to take a step back, recoup, and become comfortable being a submissive outside of a training facility. The dire need for vengeance, however, was much stronger, hence her arrival in time for the highly sought-after position of a little baby girl for the infamously known Masters Panther and Tiger, aka Kevin and Keith Frazer of the Triple K Secure Entities.
That position belonged to her. Time to perfect becoming a submissive, especially in a ménage relationship, hadn’t been an option.
Tonight, the promise she had made to her father at his graveside would become a reality. No matter how long it might take to exact the revenge she needed to set his soul to rest, she would make it happen.
“So, you’re saying all the Dominants in there are like that? There is no... I believe it’s called topping from the bottom, happening here?”
His booming laughter caused her to take a step back—it was that unexpected and loud... and too damn sexy for words. His face relaxed, and where he wasn’t really attractive, he had a roughness in him that drew her like a magnet.
Stay focused, Aria Sanchigo. You don’t have time for the horizontal boogie with Goliath.
“Tell me, little one,” he ended with a chuckle. “Are you going to participate in the auction?”
“Yes, I’m here at the preapproved invitation of my friend. She’s the bar lady over weekends.”
“Ah, the lovely Miss Daisy.” He cocked his head again. It was becoming a rather endearing move.
Aria shook off the unwanted attraction for the man that seemed to increase by the minute.
