You’ll also receive
4 BRAND-NEW EBOOKS

Chapter One

 

 

Risa Channing tipped the cab driver, gathered her leather
coat
around her
and
pressed the brass knocker on the heavy
,
carved wooden door.
She did her best to tamp down a sudden flutter of nerves as the door
to Club Fantasy swung open.
She stepped into the warm
,
paneled reception are
a
and
tentatively
smiled at the woman standing there.

“Hello, Lila.”

The two women had met when Risa filled out her membership application and took her
on a
tour of the dungeon.

“Welcome, Risa. We’re so pleased you’ve decided to join us.”

Risa nodded, hoping she’d be just as happy by the end of the evening.
Unsatisfied for a long time with the Doms she
’d
played with—and the ones she’d had unfortunate relationships with—she hoped that she’d find here what she was looking for. More than that.
What she’d
c
raved
.

When she’d met with Ruelas, the mysterious owner of Club Fantasy, she’d been very emphatic that she wanted a session with an experienced Dom who could take her to the next level of BDSM. She’d
wanted
such an experience
for a long time
,
but until recently hadn’t had the nerve to go through with it. What if she hated it? Regretted
it
? Couldn’t play beyond the light level she was used to?

Too late now, kiddo.

“Ruelas is waiting for you in the lounge,” Lila told her, taking Risa’s coat and purse. They’d be put in a locker for her until she was ready to leave.
“Have a good evening.”

I hope so.

“Thank you.”

Risa smoothed the short skirt and halter-top as she moved toward the lounge. She’d left her hair down tonight, swinging just below her shoulders. Beneath the skirt she wore a brand new scarlet thong. For luck. As she entered the lounge she saw Ruelas sitting on a curved section of a couch. Although he was of medium height he carried himself in a way as to seem much taller. He wore his blond hair in a long tail and was dressed in his signature navy silk shirt and pants. He spotted her and stood,
his
hand extended, a smile on his face.

“Good evening, Risa.” He lifted her hand and kissed her knuckles. “We’ve been waiting for you.”

The man sitting next to him rose
,
and immedia
tely
,
Risa felt her thong dampen
even as her mouth went dry
.
Like Ruelas
,
he appeared taller than he was his shoulders broad
,
and his chest and abs hard and flat, with a sexy dusting of dark hair. Al
l
the rippling muscles were easy to see because he was naked from the waist up.
The rest of his body was clad in leather pants tight enough that she could see the thick bulge of his cock. Below that
,
he was barefoot
.
She noticed
his feet
appeared
as graceful as the rest of his body.
