“I love you,” I whisper, my heart so fucking full right now. I know this is a little out of his comfort zone. Emerson doesn’t trust easily, and sex is something he requires a lot of trust to do. So him being willing to do this for me means the world.
“I love you too.”
Today is the day. I’m both nervous and excited. Emerson gets us checked into the event as I stand with eyes wide in awe while I take in the room. It’s both elegant and fun with purple lights, Victorian style furniture, and stunning crystal chandeliers.
There are already some guests here, mixing and mingling. My attention is on the women though, wondering who will be our beauty for the night.
If they’re here, they know that on a night like tonight, anything can happen, and if you’re not here with an open mind to explore things you never thought you would indulge in, then this place isn’t for you.
I have a list of kinks so long that they can’t fit on a single piece of paper. But none of them are something I need on a daily basis, so I don’t get to enjoy many of them. Tonight, however, I’d love more than anything to cross a few off the list and explore it with whoever we’re lucky enough to end up with.
My attention lands on a young woman, a beautiful blonde with her hair styled in an updo, and a sparkly black dress clinging to her killer curves. She stands out from the rest of the women floating around. She looks nervous as she scans the crowd of people from her place off to the side.
However, the gleam in her eye as she bites her lower lip tells me she’s excited just as much as she is nervous.
Oh, Alistair, do not get your hopes up.
I can’t help it, I need to talk to her, to get to know her. And I pray to whatever god is listening, I am the one who pulls her key tonight.
CHAPTER 4
SCARLETT
The cool spring breeze kisses my skin, sending a shiver through my body. I wrap my arms around myself, trying to stay warm.
I should just go inside, problem solved. But I’ve been standing outside Club Ecstasy for the past ten minutes, trying to build up the courage.
It all seemed thrilling up until this moment. When my uncle told me he practically sold me, signing away the rights to my own life, I went back to my room and cried. Mourning the loss of a future I’ve been dreaming about for so long, that I’ll never have.
After the tears dried and the pity party was over, I realized I’m running short on time as this wedding draws closer. Only a little while longer to do what I please, without my uncle’s knowledge, of course. So if there was something I wanted to do, now was the time to do it.
With the unknown regarding my future husband hanging over my head, I decided to take back the little bit of control I still had over something that is supposed to be a milestone in a young woman's life—my virginity.
It’s not like I was saving myself for my future husband or anything, there’s just never been an opportunity with the way my uncle keeps me locked away like Rapunzel. Not to mention if he found out that I let someone touch me in such a way… I can only imagine the beating that would bring.
The first thing that came to mind was going to a sex club and having a handsome man who knew what he was doing giving me a night to remember before I’m shipped off with some old creepy mafia man and forced to sleep in his bed.
It wasn’t as easy as I was hoping. Good, clean, and safe BDSM clubs are not something you can find easily on Google. They’re for the rich and privileged. And while I do have money, I don’t run in those crowds, so I’m not privy to that information.
Luck just so happened to be on my side, though, because I did happen to find a site for a place called Club Ecstasy. When I saw they were taking applications for an event they were putting on called Wicked Temptation Key Party, I had to find out more information.
The more I read, the more I knew it was just what I was looking for.
It’s a form of ‘key party’. If you are selected, you are sent a key with a number that will get you into the event. When you get checked in, you place your key into a bag.
Then, when it’s time, one of the gentlemen attending will randomly select your key.
The idea of sleeping with a stranger, opening myself up, and exploring things I may never get the chance to do again, even just for one night, had me rushing to get all the testing and forms needed before filling out the application. The owner of the club promised they don’t share them with anyone, and it’s all done in house so Tobin will never see them on my medical records.
With only a select number of people chosen, I wasn’t too hopeful about being selected, but I knew I had to try anyway. So I was pleasantly surprised when I got the invitation and key in the mail the other day.
My uncle asked what was in the envelope and I lied, telling him it was just things the college sent me. He laughed and told me to toss it right into the trash.
That cemented my decision to come here tonight. It worked out perfectly because he’s away on business for the weekend. I came out of my room in a robe to get a glass of water and knocked over a vase of flowers.
My guard Jerry came running to check on me and when he went to the hall closet to get a broom I shut the door, locking him inside. Then like the hounds of hell were nipping at my heels I bolted across the yard and down the block to the waiting cab.
But now that I’m here, I find my feet rooted into place. My heart is beating from my chest. I’ve never been brave enough to try to sneak from the house so doing so tonight has me on edge.
