Chapter One
A week after his first visit to the building that served as headquarters forSensual Playthings, Jonah was back.
He wasn’t sure if he felt more or less intimidated than last time.
Jonah rang the buzzer and stepped back, stuffing his hands into his pockets. It wasn’t like he was walking into this blind this time around.
Still, all of those toys had been intimidating, in their own way…
Plus, he’d not been able to get Finley out of his head since. He’d never been so well-fucked in his life. How could the others possibly live up to that?
Or would they be evenbetter?
The same young woman from before buzzed him inside, then poked her head out to tell him to go up to Ez’s office. Jonah nodded and went, careful to keep his steps measured and even. He remembered what Finley had told him about them hearing everything.
He needed to get himself together, at least a little.
“Come in.” Ez’s voice was as smooth and deep as Jonah remembered it being, and he smiled as he stepped into the office.
Dark eyes raked over him, the air growing suddenly heavy. Ez smiled, a dimple showing in his right cheek.
“I had worried you might not return,” he said, which made Jonah raise his eyebrows in surprise. Ez shrugged. “What you experienced can be… overwhelming.”
“Yeah, and the best fuck of my life,” Jonah said before he could think twice. He shook his head. “Sorry.”
Ez chuckled. “Please, no apologies. Though you might want to rein in the compliments a little. Finley has a big enough head as it is.”
Jonah snorted with a nod. “You got my…?”
“Your report? Yes. Thank you. I think we can safely say that model is a success, and I’m hoping the videos you and Finley shot will be enticing enough to pique people’s interest.”
The videos… Jonah had convinced Finley to keep his face out of them, and Finley had shot two on Jonah’s phone, and two on his own. He’d asked Jonah if he could show them to the others.
“The videos, uh, did Finley…?”
“Show them to us all?” Ez grinned. “Yes. You did say that he could, didn’t you?”
“Oh, yeah.” Jonah scratched the back of his head self-consciously. “I just didn’t think the others would be all that interested in them.”
Ez tilted his head to one side. For a second, the shadows in the corners of the room seemed to lengthen and Jonah felt a prickle of awareness over his skin. Heat pooled in his belly.
“We were allveryinterested,” Ez said, in a tone that brooked no argument. “Whoever you choose today will be gloating about it for weeks, I am certain.”
Jonah whimpered at the reminder, his cock twitching in his jeans. Ez smiled, and the sudden spell was broken.
“Are you ready?” he asked.
Jonah nodded eagerly.
“Good. This way.”
They followed the same route as the week before, and again Ez opened the door to reveal the four men, all of their laser-focused attention honing in on Jonah.
Was this what a gazelle felt like when it was being chased by lions?
God, Jonah wanted them to eat him up.
Finley was sitting on the sofa again, legs spread wide. He winked at Jonah. “Looking good, sweetheart.”
