I caved in a heartbeat, propellingmy arms around his neck "I love you," I said into his neck

His big, warht, and in that moment, it was all that I needed

CHAPTER THIRTY-SEVEN

The guys didn’t only stick to gigs at Decadence Unfortunately, there was no place to go but down fro up a few extra perfor this to try sho they didn’t need Jerry to e theuys were good sports, perfor wherever they needed to, to try to drum up attention

We wound up in a real duht It was one of those off the strip locations that probably wouldn’t last a year Frankie and I watched the anywhere near the stage, though this place was hardly packed Tristan insisted that I was too h I could have wished that it was otherwise, because I ached to be close to hi like that--I respected his wishes

Still, as I saw soe with hi crazy

I stifled the urge, if barely

Instead, I just drank And drank

Frankie was no help, ordering tequila shots She was in a diabolicalme drunk with an unabashed s at , and so intently, that I finally had to ask her why

She just shrugged "You’re fun drunk, and I wanted to get soossip about stud led "Stud ain

"You’re feeling pretty, I see" Everyone see drunk

I nodded, glancing once at the stage, which instantly made me a little sullen, since I had to stay so far away froet closer

"So tell me, is he the Dom I think he is?" she asked

I shot her a startled look "A Dom? Excuse me? Like S&M?"

She snorted "A Dom is not all about the S&M, and I don’t see that in Tristan No, what I mean is, does he dominate you in bed? Does he take control of you like that? And is he heavy on the kink?"

I blushed, but this was Frankie, who’d always been beyond open with me about her own preferences, so I didn’t even think about not telling her "He is I never thought about it quite like that, but he definitely takes control I need him to, and he always knew it"

That had her brows shooting up "So you’d say you’re a sub that the term couldn’t possibly apply to … finally, I nodded "I think I aain "Obviously it’s only in bed What about the kink? What have you two tried?"

I pursed lass "He’s restrained ht it was for him, but the more I think about it, it was for , but he’s really good at it"

She nodded "I think you two have hit a sweet spot Miss control freak Danika could use a little escape into the land of submission I’ll talk to him about it, k? If anyone knows about this stuff, you’re looking at her"

I nodded, shooting him a look "I really…really like it He’s made sex so wonderful foron the cake"

She laughed "I agree Totally That’s great You know, the first tiht he could be part of the Do who the ‘us’ was I was too drunk to keep such a curious question to myself "Who is in the Dom club?"

She smiled, and it was pure mischief "Well, it’s me, and I would bet money that Tryst is about to join And one other, but I have to swear you to secrecy before I tell you"

I was nodding before she finished talking Who on earth would I tell?

"You can’t even tell your fuck anonyroup about it In fact, you especially can’t tell the to kno "I swear I won’t tell a soul, not even Tristan"

"Well, him you could probably tell, because, as I said, he’s about to join the club"

"Ohinto my ear "James Cavendish"

I was floored He was so rich, and polished, and sophisticated, and well, just plain beautiful "Are you shitting me?"

She shook her head "He’s into the hardcore stuff, though, nothing you’d be on board for, trust me He makes me look like a soft Master, and I am not that"

I rolled this around in ood ten minutes before I spoke I was fascinated by the idea that soh profile, could have such an unusual sexual preference and it not be public knowledge

"That’s crazy," I finally said
