We hug for a brief moment and then I hurry to get dressed so I can leave.Twenty minutes later I’m out the door and heading for my father’s house.He lives above the gym along with my brother.I used to live there too until I left for college and moved in with Bri.

My nerves are shot and my mind has run over many different, tragic scenarios when I finally arrive at the gym.Strangely enough, the place looks closed and when I try the door it’s indeed locked.I pound my fist on the door and a few minutes later my father walks through the gym to open the door for me.

“Why is the gym closed?”I ask as I step inside and do a doubletake when I notice the disheveled state of my father.

He looks as if he aged twenty years since I saw him last month.And when he opens his mouth, I know the world as I know it won’t ever be the same again.










CHAPTER THREE

Three weeks later

– FIERO –

“They’re waiting,” Floris states when he barges into my office.

After growing up as brothers, and working together day in, day out, the balance of familiarity is a thin line.It’s clear when he only calls me “boss” when it suits him, and more than once forgets to knock before entering my damn office.I drag my attention away from the information of a certain female student and click to activate the camera feed.

I flick a button to activate the speaker and give the order, “Tate, get the lady undressed and lead her to the bed.”

Once the speaker is deactivated, I turn to face Floris.“You could have taken lead.”

Floris snorts as he grabs a chair and drags it behind my desk to take a seat next to me.

“Comfortable?”I grunt with a load of sarcasm.

He shoots me a grin.“Very.Watching the master at work is both educational and thrilling.”

“As long as you don’t whip out your cock to rub one out,” I grumble and focus back on the scene on the laptop in front of us.

I flip the audio switch and grunt, “Why isn’t she naked yet, Tate?Moxen, rip her panties, Holden, grab the rope and tie her wrists to the headboard.”

Once the sound is off, I turn to Floris.“You’ve watched, have participated in more than a few, and have taken the lead three times.”

Floris shrugs.“I’ll step up if you’re unable to do it.Tonight, you were just going through the new applications.Besides, Tate likes it when you run the show.”

I turn to Floris and he instantly knows what I’m thinking by the slight nod he gives me.
