“You’re very different from the others.”
I jerked my attention back to her face, a sly grin sliding onto my face. “I should hope so. They’re a bit of a snooze.” Her head tilted, studying me as another shot passed through those rose-tinted lips. The liquid courage was going to help both of us complete tonight’s plan.
I stuck my hand out, letting my mask drop so that she could see the monster beneath the veil. Her body trembled as our gazes locked, my expression darkening without much effort. This hadn’t been the plan but the alcohol was relaxing my shields. “Killian’s the aspiring crime journalist. I’m just Finn and I’m here to have a good time.”
Nyla glared at my outstretched hand before nodding and sporting a drunken smile of her own. “Nyla, aspiring gossip column writer. How about a few more shots?”
Does she even know what she’s getting into?
Do we?
I cackled in my head, the sound bouncing off the drab room I had locked them all in. No one was ready for what we were about to get into. And it was fifteen minutes to 8.
FINN
The bass throbbed around us as Nyla grinded against me, our hips swaying to the melody clogging our ears. She was a melting mess of arousal in my hands as I settled them on her waist, pulling her closer until her ass was firmly seated against my dick. She gasped when I thrust against her and then turned her around to meet the heated gaze in my eyes. Nyla leaned into me so that I could hear her next words. “I always thought you didn’t like me and then when I found out about them-”
I threw my head back and laughed, enjoying every minute of this. “You thought I was gay?” She gave me a sheepish nod and I didn’t fight the giggle bubbling up in my throat. She reminded me of the damn little lion and I was done trying to pretend I didn’t enjoy the thought of her responding to the pet nameI gave her. “I like getting my dick wet, Nala.” Girls, guys—it didn’t matter. Killian was wholly gay. Dark and Daemon cared about character. And me? Well,Nalawas nice to look at.
“That’s not my name.” She told me as we continued moving to the disastrous club beat, but I could see she wasn’t bothered by it, with the way her fingers were digging into my shoulders and her eyes were begging for me to kiss her.Soon.
“And yet I love it for you.” I drawled. “Look, man, woman, whatever, doesn’t matter. I value loyalty more than what it’s attached to.” She seemed confused by that statement but I wasn’t going to help her understand. I’d fuck anything that walked if it let me. Almost anything.
Jade popped up by my side, yanking me into her arms for a bruising kiss until my toes were curling and I nearly bent her over for more. “She’s perfect,” She breathed against my lips. My smile widened as I nodded enthusiastically, turning to Nala to introduce my girl.
Nala tilted her head to the side, even more confused. “Um…”
I had thought my previous statement would have explained my sexual preferences, not to mention that we were at Bondage Palace. I guessed not. “It’s time to live a little.” I drew Nala back to me, letting her feel my erection. She whined, eyes darting to Jade and then back to me. “She’s mine. Don’t ask too many questions. Just know that it’s complicated but consensual.” Jade believed she was my new girlfriend but she was so far from that. She would never be able to fill that position again becausemy priorities had changed. My men were the most important people in my life.ThenLucy, my cat.ThenJade. Maybe. Well, Lucy would be first if she was human.
Jade giggled, “And we want you.”
“You… do?” Nyla’s voice croaked, “This is all a little much.” She wasn’t pushing me away but the tremble building in her chest wasn’t easy to ignore. This wouldn’t work if she was scared, well, not initially. I needed her to enthusiastically consent to the rest of the night.
I released her, before beckoning her to follow me off the dance floor. I held Jade against me, the woman purring as she snuggled into my hold. “Nala, I won’t ask you to trust me because we’re not there yet. I just know that you’re not as vanilla as you let on and we were hoping for a little more fun tonight.”
“Finn, this isn’t-”
“God, I love the way she says your name,” Jade giggled again, the sound making my dick twitch in my pants. I needed to fuck one of them and if Nala wasn’t game, I knew Jade would be.
Turning my attention to Jade, I cupped her cheeks and kissed her softly, enjoying the taste of her lips. “Right? Nala, it’s your choice. I won’t force you, but I think we could have a lot of fun.” My hands wound through Jade’s hair and pulled, a surprised yelp tearing from her lips before I met Nala’s gaze. I waited,hopingthat she would give in.
Nala chewed her bottom lip, still unsure. I wouldn’t trust me either if I had been her, but this had to happen. She stuckher hand out and I gladly took it, leading both women up to the private rooms on the second level. I had already reserved the one at the back for this very purpose, shoving money from my father’s bank account at it until someone like Killian would have passed out.
I was going to recreate one of Slash's first kills with my own little flair. This night was going to be perfect. They were going to fucking enjoy it.
I threw Nyla on the cushioned bench playfully and closed the door, Jade’s eyes glittering with the promise of everything we were going to do tonight. Leaning against the door, I took in the beauty of the two women—Nyla in her black wrap dress and Jade in her slinky teal onesie that I was pretty sure was laced with glitter. Jade plopped down by Nyla, stroking the girl’s hair, vibrating with anticipation.
“Uh, how does this work? Me and her or both or—”
“Nala, this is aboutyou,” I purred, drawing myself closer until I stood above her. She gasped, her cheeks turning a beautiful shade of crimson. Memories of the 2ndFinn and his hostage situation in this room filtered through my mind. I had been in charge the entire time, commanding his every move, relishing the pain as he dug into my arm, as he beat me, as he tried to play the one in control.
My dick hardened at the adrenaline that had coursed through my body, the power I wielded much as I did right now. Nylalicked her lips at my growing bulge, thinking that this unbidden desire was for her and her alone.
In a roundabout way, it was.
FINN
Three more shots in and I needed to stop. Killian was a fucking lightweight as I stumbled forward, licking Nala’s release off my lips.
