“Sit.” I looked up at him and he motioned to the bed. Then he shut the door and locked it. Cleo and Rafe were standing directly outside the door. After the door was locked he turned and looked at me. His expression was sort of grave.
He loosened his tie, then took it and his suit jacket off. I stared straight ahead and waited.
Dare
There was an awkward tension in the room and I wasn’t sure what to do with it. This whole fucking situation was turning my stomach. I was trying to keep it together, not tip them off, not tip her off, in case a) she did something to tip them off due to being suspicious or b) the room was bugged. I just wanted the fuck outta here. It was still early, too early to crash for the night.
“Felicia, wanna take a walk?” I asked and rolled my sleeves up to the elbows and undid the top two buttons of my shirt. I needed air and away from here for a bit. And for some reason I didn’t trust leaving her here when those two could come back in. I didn’t want them to even breathe on her. Sick fucking scumbags.
She got to her feet, “That sounds wonderful…”
That hung like she was going to add a Sir or a Master. As we left the room I cocked my elbow and she took my arm.
I hadn’t seen much of the resort so far since I’d acted anxious to be alone with my slave. We weren’t far down the hall, which looked like your garden variety hallway in any high-end resort, when I spotted a tall and thin redheaded man in his 40’s walking with a woman on a leash. She was an exotic-looking young Somalian woman, crawling behind him on her hands and knees, topless, wearing just a black thong. Felicia was oblivious. I tried to hold my expression stoic. I suspected these halls had cameras, too. I didn’t know whether my suite did or not but was acting on the suspicion that it did. I had asked earlier and was told that many suites were outfitted with surveillance equipment only to keep an eye on things but that VIPs and company stakeholders were not included. Because they didn’t know me yet I wouldn’t trust that was true. I wasn’t letting my guard down.
We passed another couple but they were walking hand in hand, dressed to the nines. The woman had a silver choker necklace on her throat with two bands crusted with rubies.
We stepped outside and it was a gorgeous night. The sun was setting, we were on a sandy beach and anyone whose mind was clear enough to notice would’ve thought it was a breathtaking sight. But me? I wanted the fuck outta here. She struggled a little through the sand with her high heels so we switched to a boardwalk that extended in one direction what looked like pretty far.
“Where did you grow up?” I asked her, “Alaska?”
Her eyes widened.
“How’d you get here?” I asked right after that, not giving her a chance to answer my first question.
She went pale.
“Forget it. We can discuss that later,” I quickened my pace. I fought the urge to tell her the truth so I could put her mind at ease.
She kept pace with me.
I was fuming at the whole situation and I couldn’t seem to rein it in. We walked for a bit and then we were at the boundary of the property way too soon. I lit a smoke and inhaled deeply, leaning against the fence, looking at her.
She stood uncomfortably in front of me, looking down. I gazed out at the water, taking my time to finish it, and then when I put the cigarette out I grabbed her hand and we walked back to the resort. By the time we were back, the sun had disappeared completely.
Felicia
By the time we got back to the
building after our walk my heart was thumping wildly against my chest because as time wore on Dare seemed more and more angry. I didn’t know what I’d done wrong and I was not looking forward to being alone with him. He’d asked me personal questions, which was odd, but he never gave me a chance to answer them. I’d been relieved though, because I didn’t want to answer them. No other patrons had asked those sorts of questions. They almost never asked any questions. That would intimate we were people with thoughts and feelings. As if.
When we got back inside the suite he said, “I need to make a few calls so I’m gonna step back outside. Maybe you can take a bubble bath or something, watch TV. I’ll be back soon.”
“Yes, Sir.” Oops.
He rolled his eyes at me and then he was gone.
** ** **
It had been a very long time since I’d had a luxurious bubble bath alone. I’d had duties to perform in pools and baths plenty of times but a long bath on my own? It had been too long since I’d had that kind of luxury. It was decadent.
There was a knock on the door. Oh no. I hit the switch to turn the jets off.
“Yes?”
“You okay?” It was Dare’s voice.
“Yes, Master!” I called out.
