“Get the fuck off her, Sasha. You’re not going to taint her with your twisted ideas about domination,” Alexander growled.
“Such a spoilsport.” She pouted and tsked at him. “And here I thought we could have a little fun with this one.”
“Go find someone else to harass. We’re done here.”
“Oh, Alex. Haven’t I taught you anything?” she purred.
“You taught me enough,” he spat. “And some lessons I’ll never forget.”
What are they talking about? Who is this woman to him?
A knowing smile plastered across Sasha’s face. I felt like my head was spinning, and I could barely keep up.
“Oh, come on now!” she went on. “Don’t tell me you’re still sore over the whole thing with Will.”
Will?
Alex took a step closer to her. He was mere inches away from her face, jaw twitching and fists clenched tight in anger. His eyes flashed with pure loathing, and for a moment, I was scared. I thought he might actually hit her.
“Don’t push me,” he hissed. “I told you to get lost. I’m not going to repeat it.”
“Very well then. It’s your loss. Maybe next time,” she stated matter-of-factly.
Seeming completely unruffled by Alexander’s wrath, she sauntered away with her hips swaying seductively in her wake.
“What in the hell just happened here?” I demanded, alarmed after witnessing Alexander almost lose total control. He was raking his hands through his hair, appearing thoroughly rattled by the confrontation.
“I’m sorry, Krystina. Sasha’s a sadistic bitch, and I shouldn’t have let it go that far.”
“It’s not hard to imagine that woman with whips and chains. With all the leather she was wearing, she looked like she could be the poster girl for Dominatrix-R-Us,” I said sarcastically.
“Actually, she’s a switch.”
I rolled my eyes in exasperation.
“I don’t even know what that means!” I shouted, altogether incensed over everything that had just happened. I lowered my voice to a level that could barely be heard over the loud music. The last thing we needed was to draw any more unwanted attention. “Explain, please.”
“It means she can play both. I told you about my first submissive. Well, Sasha was the one who filled the role.”
“Okay, so what does that have to do with Will? I’m assuming she was referring to Will Murphy.”
“Yes,” he said in a resigned voice. “Will used to be her sub, at least until she got bored. Then she planned a little ménage à trois, completely without the knowledge of Will or me.”
My eyes grew wide as the pieces of the puzzle began to come together.
“You and Will? Did you…um, you know,” I started.
“Hell, no!” he exclaimed, sounding completely aghast. “It never went that far. Didn’t I just say there are certain things I don’t do?”
“I’m sorry! I’m sorry!” I apologized quickly. “I didn’t mean to imply anything.”
“Yeah, well…William Murphy, on the other hand, hits from both sides of the plate. And I also happen to know his Irish family is hardcore Catholic. His bedroom antics are not something he wants to be made known. Needless to say, things have been very awkward between us ever since. Plus, he blames me for Sasha leaving him.”
“Gotcha,” I said, having a better understanding as to why things between Alexander and Will had been so tense.
Alexander pinched the bridge of his nose and shook his head in aggravation.
“I don’t know about you, but I’ve had enough for tonight. I’ll be right back. I’m just going to hit the restroom, then we’re leaving,” Alexander announced.
