I glare at him. "What are ya doing?"

He palms my cheek. "You're better than everyone else in the club because I say ya are, but if ya must know, there's all sorts in there. Many are pretty seedy."

"Seedy?"

"Aye. Lots of seedy sex addicts doing things you've never done, or even seen, before."

My face heats. "I know I'm inexperienced. Ya don't have to throw it in my face," I seethe.

"I wasn't trying to."

"Weren't ya?"

"No, I wasn't," he insists sternly, then continues to study me. He admits, "I don't want ya involved in bad stuff, Maeve. My job is to keep ya safe. The club isn't always kosher."

"You've taken other women there though?" I question.

He sighs. "My past doesn't have anything to do with us."

"But you've taken other women there."

He hesitates a moment.

I assert, "Don't lie to me. One thing we don't need to do is lie to each other."

He licks his lips and then nods. "Okay. I agree. We don't need to lie to each other. And yes. I've taken other women there."

"Well, if they were with you, wasn't it your job to protect them as well?" I inquire.

He clenches his jaw.

"Was it?"

"Aye. Of course it was."

I hurl, "So you took them there, but ya don't want to take me?"

He states, "You're my wife."

I glare at him. "So what? I'm your wife. Am I not supposed to see what happens there because then ya can take other women there?"

He groans. "Stop saying that. I already went over this with ya. I'm not looking to have sex with any other woman. The only woman I'm looking to fuck is you."

A hint of happiness fills me. But I'm not showing him any of it. I stare at him in silence, the tension building between us.

The car stops. He glances out the window. "We're back at the penthouse. Why don't we just go inside and have a nice night to finish our evening?"

I sarcastically laugh. "And not go to the club?"

"Aye."

"If ya want to quit truth or dare, then that's what we'll do," I remind him.

Pride fills his expression again, mixing with his ego. It won't let him quit. He says nothing and shakes his head. He gets out of the car and then reaches in for me. "Let's go."

I get out.

He slams the door shut and leads me into the building and up to the penthouse.
