“Only slightly bigger,” Logan added with a quick grin.

“I see.” Jocelyn’s heart stuttered in her chest with excitement. “And what else?”

He paused and smiled before responding, “We have a wide selection of sex toys. Actually, we have a few new ones we’ve never used before that I’d love to try out on you. Interested?”

Visions of massive vibrating dildos, whips, and manacles circled her mind. Her mouth suddenly went as dry as a bowl of dust. Then again, when would she ever get a chance like this again? Her libido kicked in its opinion with a resounding push to go and enjoy all the sexual delights they planned. She shrugged and managed, “Perhaps.”

Kendall pulled his old-timey pocket watch out of his vest pocket, and glanced at it. “‘Perhaps’ is not a definitive answer. It’s time to make a decision, Jocelyn. The last stagecoach out of town leaves in less than five minutes. Accompany us to our private quarters for a walk on the wild side this evening or take your leave and head out the park gates right now. No hard feelings either way.”

To stay or to go wasn’t even a tough decision to make. Jocelyn wanted, no, needed to get inside that walled compound. Her sister’s welfare possibly hanging in the balance was the blatant lie she told herself to make that final extra push in the decision to join them. Besides, what was wrong with getting a little satisfaction along with possible information on where her sister had gone? Without responding, she stepped through the door and started down the stairs.

Kendall followed behind her. He caught up halfway down the stairs, and took her hand in his callused one, lacing his fingers through hers. So sexy.

At the bottom of the steps, he kissed the back of her hand gently. She wanted to sigh in happiness. He gestured her to a small vehicle that looked like a convertible golf cart. Jocelyn looked over one shoulder expecting to see Logan, but they were alone.

“Where’s Logan?” she asked.

“He’s the stable master. As such, he’s got a few responsibilities to attend to with the horses at the Old West Town stable. The park will be closed for business the next few days after tonight’s closing. But don’t worry, he’ll be along in no time to participate. This will give the two of us a chance to discuss specifics of tonight’s activities and further negotiate.”

Jocelyn nodded and seated herself in the front seat of the small electric vehicle.

“Hold tight.” He maneuvered the cart down a long, well-lit tunnel for only a few minutes before the shaft opened up into a larger room with three more tunnels on the left, a staircase along one wall straight ahead, and a row of three more golf carts parked on the right.

Kendall parked in an open space, pushed the off button, and hopped out. Jocelyn also stepped out in time for him to offer his hand again. She took it, and he led her up the long whitewashed staircase to another open entryway and into a short hall.

He pushed through an unlocked open door and they entered a small, windowless, unadorned room. The other door in the room had a biometric scanner. He pulled a credit-card-size key out of his shirt pocket, swiped it, then entered a code in the number pad. He put his hand on the scanner reader at waist level, and at the same time lowered his face to the level of the optical reader.

High-tech security obviously lived here. But then again, she already knew that. And another reason she didn’t simply ask if Dean or his family lived here. Likely any questions about who lived inside these walls was a tightly held secret or at the very least a topic not discussed with near strangers.

“Do you keep gold bullion here or something?”

He laughed. “No, the park is owned by a cadre of fairly wealthy people. They demand their private space remains private. I can’t blame them and also I’m in charge of seeing to it, so we make a special effort to keep this area away from the public.”

“So you’re the sheriff both in town and out here.” She grinned.

“Precisely.”

She was about to ask who the rich cadre of owners were, but the automatic door slid open to admit them to yet another windowless, bare room. This one had several doors.

He put his hand at the small of her back and guided her to a door on their right. He swiped the key card again. An entry opened up to the outside air. A garden walkway was revealed as she stepped through the door.
