I knew he packed some muscle since we’d worked on a few clean-up situations together. However, in this situation, if he blocked me in any way, I would run his ass over to get to Sophia.

“I’m here for Sophia.”

“Interesting. After your performance with her the last time you were here, I wouldn’t have expected the two of you to continue your arrangement.”

“What’s between us is none of your business, Ventana. Now get out of my way.”

“No. She has a right to be here, and you don’t.” Two bouncers flanked Clark. “I revoked your membership.”

“Morelli reinstated my membership when he informed me Sophia was here.”

He lifted a brow as it was news to him. “Until he passes this information on to me directly, you aren’t going anywhere.”

“I will see her. She is mine.” The thought of anyone touching her sent a wave of anger boiling up inside me.

I tried to push past Clark, but his wall of muscle grabbed my arms and held me in place. There wasn’t any use in trying to fight them. These assholes were twice my size and would have me pinned to the ground in seconds.

“She’s not a possession, Pierce.” Clark got in my face. “You don’t own her. She makes the call on who she is with, not you.”

I was starting to hate this fucker. From the beginning, Clark explicitly made it clear I wasn’t good enough for Sophia. He’d introduced Sophia to every other Dom in the club except me.

“Who did she bring here?”

“It’s not you. That is all you need to know.”

“I’m not leaving without her.”

“You will when I throw you out on your ass.”

“Let’s not be too hasty, Mr. Ventana,” I heard an amused voice behind me. “Mr. Pierce wants to see me. Well, here I am.”

Immediately, my attention shifted to Sophia. The curve at the corner of her lips told me she found the scene before her entertaining. However, the energy and intensity I saw when I gazed into her dark eyes felt like she waited and expected me to come.

“He’s not a member. And therefore, not permitted on the premises.”

Sophia shot him a sideways glare. “How often did I sneak in here before becoming a member? Let him pass. I’ll vet for Mr. Pierce.”

“You’re the one he broke the club rules with, remember?”

“You know he staged it. You heard the playback and saw parts of the video—time to get off your high horse.” She pursed her lips.

Oh, Sophia. Always the brat, even with the head Dom of Violent Delights.

No matter where she was, Sophia had no problems telling someone where to shove it. Clark Ventana was the reigning king when Lucian wasn’t around, and she couldn’t give a shit.

Clark stepped in front of me to block my view of Sophia. “You can do better than him.”

“I’m not interested in any of your other candidates. Accept it.”

I clenched my fists, ready to pull free of the gladiators holding me hostage and punch Clark in the face.

Clark sighed. “If I allow Pierce in, you’re responsible for him. That means your membership is on the line.”

“When did you become so dramatic, Master Ventana?”

“Remember where you are, Sophia. And who I am.” Clark’s warning pushed all my buttons.

If he laid one finger on her, he was a dead man. “You fucking touch her, and I will kill you, Ventana.”
