“Introduce me to your friend,” I said when she still didn’t speak.
Jenica’s lips moved, but no sound left her mouth.
“Adalyn Rose, Sir,” the female beside her said, making my eyebrows fly upward.
I knew that name.
She was on the list of untouchables for this location.
An Elite Bride in training.
Which meant she’d been promised to someone important. And she was here to learn from a select list of trainers.
Sometimes they shared.
Usually they didn’t.
It was a part of this world that I didn’t fully understand and often stayed out of. I came for the consensual sex, not the other shit.
But Jenica… How the fuck does she know this woman? “Did you two just meet?”
“No. We’re roommates, Sir,” Adalyn replied, her eyes respectfully downcast. “Jen is my guest for the night.”
“I see.” Jenica is roommates with an Elite Bride? And that Elite Bride brought Jenica here? To the proverbial lion’s den as an untried sub? Jesus Christ… I wasn’t sure whom I wanted to throttle more—Jenica or her roommate.
Probably Jenica.
Only because I knew better than to touch an Elite Bride. That rule had been very clearly stated when I’d gained my Ecstasy membership—something that had only happened because of my role at Wakefield Pharmaceuticals. I had rubbed elbows with some very powerful men over the years, and one of them, Geoff Strider, had taken me out to the club one night for drinks.
He’d wanted to celebrate one of my social media campaigns that had gone viral about a specific orphan drug. My informative marketing had caught the interest of a renowned scientist who’d later joined the Wakefield Pharmaceutical team and changed the landscape for that medication.
What I hadn’t known at the time was that Geoff was suffering from the disease that the orphan drug treated.
The research team was what had saved him.
But he’d claimed that my campaign had been the reason behind it.
And he’d gifted me a membership to Ecstasy as a way to show his gratitude.
Which meant I took the rules very seriously and followed every single one of them. That was why I knew Adalyn’s name—I’d memorized those on the untouchable list before coming tonight.
It hadn’t been a difficult task, considering she was the only Elite Bride listed.
I’d filed it away as a name to remember, thinking I wouldn’t meet her.
Never in my wildest dreams could I have thought up a scenario where she would bring Jenica as her plus-one.
“Did you find something interesting?” Jax asked, his voice behind me.
Jenica’s lips parted, her eyes widening even more as she attempted to fight my grip.
“I did,” I replied, holding her gaze for a beat. Then I released her chin to grab the back of her neck, my thumb pushing on her head, to force her to bow the way Adalyn had. The only difference was Adalyn had tied her hair back as most subs did, while Jenica had not.
Which meant her face was now hidden beneath a curtain of blonde hair.
“Two beautiful women in need of refills,” I said, taking the mostly empty glass from Jenica’s hand and setting it on the table beside what appeared to be a chocolate martini glass.
“Hmm,” Jax hummed. “I think I can help with that.” He set a pair of amber-colored drinks down on the glass, obviously having ordered one for me as well as himself. “What will it be?”
