a submissive, especially one from the office. Uncle Stephen would have a field day if he discovered that Gael had Alice on her knees, wide-eyed and willing. That would be the reason he’d need to kick Gael to the curb, cutting him off from the income and loan he needed to help his parents’ business.
So why the hell was he hauling Alice to one of the private rooms?
Because she’s just too perfect to pass up.
“Where are we going?” Her words were breathy as she stumbled along behind him. He should be waiting for her, taking care that she wasn’t going to get hurt. Any other day that’s exactly what he’d be doing.
But not tonight.
“You asked for this.” He was many things—hard-ass, focused, driven—but being a selfish bastard was at the top of that list. Alice had been sitting in the back of his mind for months now, scratching away at his resolve with her perfectly manicured nails. He tightened his hold on her arm. If this was going to blow up in his face, he was damn well going to enjoy it first. “No backing out now.”
“I wasn’t. I just wanted to know...can you slow down, please?”
“No.”
“But—”
He stopped short and pulled her hard against him. The thin fabric of her sundress did nothing to hide her body from him. As she pulled in a breath, her breasts pressed against his arm. He could feel the hard peaks of her nipples, tempting him to pull her dress down there and then so he could suck them. She’d be shocked, but she wouldn’t pull away from him. He’d felt this unexplored connection between them for months now. It was time do something about it.
He took her chin in his hand and held her still. The mixed emotions swirling in her gaze were almost enough to make him change his mind and take her home, away from this place and its madness.
Almost.
“There are no buts. No words. I want you to remain silent until I tell you it’s safe to speak. Do you understand?”
Gael half expected her to continue to prattle on. She talked when she was nervous—that was one of the first things he’d learned about her. He should have known better. Alice’s eyes grew wider, but she only nodded her acceptance. Of course she wouldn’t back down. Stupid, stubborn woman...
Beautiful, generous, sexy...
“I’ll answer your questions then, but not before.” Letting her chin go, he kept his hold on her wrist before tugging her along behind him. As much as having her here with him was a fantasy come true, Gael wanted to keep her safe, pure, separate from this part of his life. He’d do anything to ensure no one but him would touch her.
The main floor of the club was now a hive of activity. Given the time of night, Gael was surprised it had taken this long for many of the members to jump into the roles they all knew and loved. Wonderland served a very specific clientele—Doms looking for a place to play with their subs. The moment most people crossed the threshold past Chess’s watchful gaze, they slipped into their roles without a second thought. That there was a lot of chatter, and not as many of the regulars in attendance, was odd.
This wasn’t a no-holds barred sex club like Mavericks, the other main lifestyle club in town. Although Gael had enjoyed playing there the few times he’d gone, it didn’t give him enough of what he’d been looking for. Mavericks attracted couples or single people looking to get into relationships. He couldn’t get involved with someone. He couldn’t afford the distraction when he’d been going through university. But it was there that he’d met Mistress Red and gained an introduction to Wonderland. Gael hadn’t looked back since.
By the time they reached the main floor, Gael was faced with a sea of naked bodies. Most of the Doms had broken off, some into smaller groups, some playing only with their subs. There would be an array of activities—floggings, Shibari, humiliations—anything and everything. Although the crowd seemed slow to start, the
