I need to get her out of here.

I squeeze my fists tighter, beeline over to her, then reach for her, demanding, "Let's go."

"Sit and stay awhile," Colton interjects, smirking at me.

I scowl at him, vowing to deal with him later. I'm in a touchy position and need to get my pet out of here. I refocus on her, firmly ordering, "Now."

Blakely slowly takes my hand. It's shaking, and she rises.

I tug her close to me and move about ten feet.

Papi booms, "Riggs, you interrupted my session."

I take a deep breath and turn. "Yes. I apologize. My wife and I are just leaving." I take several more steps.

He grunts, then asserts, "I don't think so."

The bouncer moves in front of the door, and my chest tightens. I tighten my hold on Blakely's waist and spin us.

Papi claims, "You broke the rules."

I silently beg him to show me some mercy, locking eyes with him and repeating, "I extend my biggest apologies. As I said, my wife and I are leaving."

His lips curl. He shakes his head and states again, "I don't think so."

"Papi—"

"You broke the rules, Riggs. Consequences are in order," he declares and arches his eyebrows.

Blakely's body stiffens next to me. My pulse skyrockets. I clutch her tight to my side. I want to argue with him, but a Dom cannot allow anyone to break the rules without dishing out a punishment of some sort. It demonstrates to members that it's not okay to disregard protocol.

Papi gives me a moment, continuing to give me his challenging stare, and I realize there's no getting out of this.

I swallow hard, then ask, "What are the consequences of this room?"

Satisfaction fills his expression. He states, "I think I'll use my authority to override them."

Relief fills me. I nod. "Thank you." I move Blakely a few steps.

He shouts, "Wait!"

My gut sinks again. I look at him in question.

Papi announces, "I didn't say there will be no consequences."

Blakely's hand grips my thigh. I inhale her driftwood and sea salt scent and grit my teeth, seething, "Then get on with it."

A dark expression fills his face. I've seen it with Doms and am sure I possess it too. It sends a chill down my spine. He focuses on Blakely and questions, "Why did you come without your husband?"

"It's none of your business," I snarl.

Papi scoffs. "Are you going to break more rules, Riggs?"

I almost protest, then snap my mouth shut. He has all the authority now. I'm in his room, interrupting his session. I don't need to dig the hole I'm in any deeper.

He turns back to my pet, pushing, "Well?"

She trembles harder, her forehead creasing with anxiety.
