He winked. “Like nothing you’ve seen before.”

I bit my lip as my eyes darted around the room. There were at least two dozen men dressed in suits. Handsome and wealthy, they were the sons of powerful men—members of The Devil’s Knights.

I was the only woman.

A sudden rush of fear raced down my spine as they all stopped what they were doing to stare at me. Luca lounged in an oversized leather chair by the fireplace. Cigar hanging out of his gorgeous mouth, he draped his long leg over the arm. He propped his other foot up on the ottoman, looking like a god.

Luca examined my body as I stopped in front of him. He curved his arm around my thighs and pulled me onto his lap.

“Happy birthday, Luca.” I brushed my lips against his. “I didn’t have time to get you a present.”

His forehead pressed against mine. “What I want you can’t buy.”

“What do you want?”

Luca sucked my bottom lip into his mouth. “You.”

“You have me.”

His hands slid over my ass, claiming me with the same hunger I craved. The animal was ready to play.

He kissed my lips. “Lose yourself with us tonight. Let us take care of you. I think you’ll like the game we have planned.”

“Don’t you ever get sick of playing games?”

He laughed as if it was the craziest thing I’d ever said. “Never.”

“Why not?”

“Because I can win games.”

Luca peppered my jaw with kisses, then he sat up, lifting us both off the chair. Tall and imposing, he towered over me. I looked up at him, noted the nefarious glint in his eyes, the devilish smirk touching the corner of his mouth. He looked like he was up to no good, which sent a shiver down my arms.

Luca steered me toward the center of the room with his hand on my back. The sitting room was five times the size of most people’s living rooms. It had a vaulted ceiling, high walls, and a ton of furniture. But with the Knights watching us, their eyes traveling up and down my body, it felt much smaller. Like the walls were closing in on me.

Sonny plopped into a chair across from Drake and shoved a glass plate of cocaine in front of him. Two dark-haired men tapped shot glasses, drinking with their eyes on Luca and me. We were the center of attention.

Money exchanged hands.

Why are they betting?

Luca wrapped his arm around me. “I want you to enjoy yourself tonight. This game will be fun if you relax and learn to conquer your fears.”

“What are you talking about?”

Holding me against his chest, he dragged his index finger between my cleavage and whispered in my ear, “See how jealous they are?”

I stared at the men surrounding us.

“Everyone wants a piece of you,” he whispered, his deep voice. “They want to take you from me.”

“You’re paranoid, Luca. I think you drank too much.”

“I’m serious, baby.” He took another swig, his hand now covering my right breast. “It’s only a matter of time before someone steals you away.” His hand slipped beneath my top, so his friends could watch him massage my hard nipple. “I have a lot of enemies.”

As he cupped my breast, he rolled his thumb over the tiny bud a few more times. I was so focused on the feel of his skin against mine I almost didn’t notice heels clicking on the marble floor in the hallway. The sounds slowly approached the sitting room, and my head snapped toward the room’s entrance.

A group of women walked into the room wearing red gowns like mine, except mine was much nicer and probably cost a fortune. Some of them had blonde hair, a few had brown, one auburn. But all of them had curly hair like mine, which surprised me.
