It's instantaneous. Her back arches, her lips parted as a throaty moan escapes her.

But just as the vibrations start driving her crazy, I stop them.

"You're wicked," she accuses, breathing harshly as she meets my eyes.

"Maybe, but I'm yours," I chuckle as I help her to her feet, smoothing her dress over her body. "Just likeyouare mine. And this is how you're going to keep all your attention on me tonight," I lean down to murmur in her ear, bringing my lips to the sensitive skin of her neck and laying a soft kiss.

"As if anyone else could get my attention," she rolls her eyes, but there's a sly smile on her lips, as if she can't wait to see what else I have in store for her.

Her hand in mine, we leave, getting a cab to drop as at one of the clubs downtown.

When we reach the destination, we're able to cut the line since we have a booking. The bouncer scans us, nodding when he sees we're clean and handing us some special bracelets.

One of the reasons I'd opted for this specific club is the tight security and the fact that they allow no weapons inside. It's owned by an acquaintance, Enzo Agosti, and I know he keeps a tight leash on the management of his clubs.

The moment we're in, we go down a long-winded hallway swathed in red light. There's the slightest hint of music playing in the distance.

"It already looks fun," Noelle notes, tightening her grip on my hand.

"How was the club you went to last time?"

"It wasn't this fancy for sure," she chuckles. "To be honest, I went inside the first club I saw. At the time, I just wanted to get on Cisco's nerves, and I knew that if he picked me up from a club he would fume."

"Well, he definitely fumed more when he picked you up from the police station," I add, amused.

"You should have seen his face," she laughs. "That alone was worth the trip to the station."

"You're a sneaky little thing, aren't you?"

"Maybe," she flutters her lashes at me.

Just at that moment, I drag my other hand on the screen of my phone.

Noelle jumps up, startled, turning her head towards me and giving me a scandalized look.

"Raf," she gives me a playful slap.

"It's just the beginning, pretty girl," I assure her. "Justthe beginning."

There's another bouncer at the end of the hallway, and seeing our bracelets, opens one of the doors for us.

As soon as we're inside, we're greeted by flashing lights and blaring music. Instinctively, I bring Noelle closer to my side, holding her flush against my body.

There are two levels to the club. The dance floor and the bar are on the lower one, while the VIP tables are upstairs.

Before we could step into the crowd, there's yet another bouncer who shows us towards the stairs, walking us to our reserved seats before a waiter comes to take our first orders.

"I didn't expect this," Noelle shouts, trying to get her voice across the loud music.

"What?"

"The layout. It looks more like a fancy restaurant than a club."

"Only the best for you," I wink at her.

Had I secretly chosen this so she wouldn't be in the pit, among sweaty bodies where anyone could cop a feel? Most certainly yes.

She's getting her club experience and I'm getting some peace of mind—and hopefully a sweet reward from her later.
