She sat up in his lap and looked toward the bar area.“I never noticed.”

“Most don’t.Max keeps it there because no phones are allowed, and some of the Doms don’t wear watches in the club because they can catch on things.”

“I noticed that most women don’t have jewelry on.”

“Right.”

She squirmed.

“Ready to stand?”

“Yes, please.”

Logan shifted her off his lap onto the sofa, stood, then helped her to her feet, keeping his hands on her waist.

“You do that a lot.”

“What?”

“Keep your hands on me, be it to make sure I’m steady on my feet or to guide me when we’re walking.”

“Maybe I like touching you.”Her cheeks bloomed, and Logan chuckled.“Let’s go change, and I’ll get you home.”

“Bossy,” she muttered as he guided her across the club.

“You have no idea.”

Chapter Six

Saturday, Ellie unlocked the door of her business, Double Rainbow Party Planning.She loved the light that spilled into the main room from the windows.After making her way to her office, she sat at her desk and tucked her purse away.Her mind hadn’t been on work the previous day.No, her mind was filled with Logan.Thursday night had been so different for her.Logan’s touch sent her heart into overdrive, and even now, she swore the sensation of his skin sliding against hers echoed in her veins.

She’d slept like a log Thursday night, then last night, she had dreams about Logan and all the things he could do to her.When she woke, she was hot and aroused.Wednesday night seemed like a long time away, but he was working.She sighed.Cop.She had ignored what he did for a living, but she really couldn’t continue to do that for much longer.

Going into this with her eyes open was the only way it could work.They needed to talk about his job, and she wanted to see if he wanted to continue in the club.She hadn’t been sure of him at first, but the last two weeks had shown her he’d make a great partner in the club.

The bell over the door to her store jingled, and she walked out of her office to see her newest client walking through the door.“Good morning, Annette.”

“Hi, Ellie.”Her bubbly voice made Ellie grin.“I hope this is a good time.”

“It’s fine.”Ellie pushed all thoughts of Logan out her head.Annette had come in a few weeks ago, asking if Ellie could do a divorce party.They’d talked, and Annette said she’d be back to talk logistics and timing.

“I probably should have called ahead.”Annette examined several items in a basket of decorations.“I love these,” Annette said, picking up the purple streamers and flowers.

“Come sit down, and we can talk colors for the party and other things.”Ellie grabbed paper and pen from the table and pulled out a chair for Annette.Annette sat, and Ellie took a seat across from her.

Ellie found it easier to chat with the client that way.It also helped her get a feel for what the client wanted.“Let’s talk decorations.”

“I’m thinking the purple and yellow.”

“Bold choices.”Not two that Ellie would put together, but it was the client’s party.

“I like purple and yellow.They remind me of spring, especially since we’re going into fall.”

“I can work with it.”Ellie wrote on her check list Annette’s choice.“Have you picked a venue yet?”She’d given Annette a list of places several weeks ago to check out.Ellie found it better if the client selected the venue.

“Yes, I’ve rented the banquet room at the Double D BBQ for Friday night, three weeks from yesterday.”

“I can work with that.”She made more notes.“How about—”
