“When we got back… after sledding. I was going to tell you…” I pant out. Then the intensity shuts off completely.
“What did you do that for?” I snap, the disappointment clear in my tone.
“We have all night, my little dirty girl… All night.”
And that we do… We have every night for the rest of our lives. Something that I won't ever take for granted. I will cherish my king till the end of time.

One Month Later
Wes
Tonight’s the night.
The Grand Opening of Masqued. Sloan has poured so much thought into this and I have enjoyed every second of watching it all come together with her.
She’s been here all day prepping and getting everything ready for the exclusive party tonight. Ava’s doing some final touches on the floor and points me toward Sloan’s office. She said she finally convinced Lo to go have a glass of champagne and get ready for the evening.
Her office is empty, but the door to her ensuite bathroom is slightly cracked and I hear Drake playing through her wireless speaker. She’s most likely trying to get in the zone and push through her nerves for tonight. I remember all the feelings I had during opening night of King’s Hideaway, and they were overwhelming at times.
Opening the door gently so she doesn’t hear me over her music, I take the opportunity to watch her in the mirror.
Fuck, she’s sexy.
She’s wearing the same outfit design she picked out for her cocktail waitresses. Lo told me about it the other day, but damn, she is something to see in that sheer-backless dress with tiny shorts under it. I see her take a big deep breath, trying to calm herself down as she digs through her make-up bag.
“Damn dirty girl…” I say, placing my hands on her hips, her eyes finding mine quickly in the mirror.
“I wasn’t prepared for this. You are always beautiful, but fuck baby… You are on fire tonight.” I let out a groan and lean in to place a kiss on her neck.
Sloan immediately turns around to face me, wrapping her arms around my waist. She squeezes me tightly and I hold her, knowing she needs the comfort right now. She’ll never ask for it, but she needs me… Hence why I got here early.
I tip her head up so I can press my lips to hers in a soft kiss before whispering, “I got you a little surprise.”
“Wes, you didn’t have to do that. You being here is all I need… seriously, just one hug from you has me feeling more relaxed than I have all day.” She says, running her finger along my face.
Picking her hand up that's on my chest, I press a kiss to her crown tattoo. “That’s what Fiancés are for Thea.”
I lace our fingers together and lead her back into her office, where I left a little black box on her desk.
Untying the silk black bow, she looks up at me seductively with the ribbon between her fingers, “Planning to tie me up again?”
I grab the ribbon from her and stuff it in my pocket. “You know what? I think I will save that for later.”
Lo giggles as she opens the box. “Wes!” She gasps. Gently picking up the burgundy hand-crafted mask, she says, “This is stunning Wes.” Her eyes taking in every little detail of the velvet material.
“It matches the decor in the lounge perfectly.”
“I may have had some help from a little birdie and her color swatches.” I wink at Lo.
“The fact you took the time to do all this once again shows how lucky I am. Thank you so much, baby,” she says, giving me a kiss that has my cock twitching.
“Of course. I wanted your costume to stand out with a little flare that the others don’t have… after all, you are the owner and creator of Masqued.” I kiss her again before whispering, “I am so proud of you Sloan soon-to-be King. Tonight is going to be amazing.”
“Thank you, my love. I’m pretty proud of myself, too.”
Smacking her butt, I nudge her back in the direction of her bathroom. “The pre-party will start soon with all your closest friends, so go finish getting ready. I want the honor of tying your mask in place.”
