hands on it, she worked through her frustration
until a cool sweat broke out all over her body. Each time she landed a punch,
she imagined it being this mysterious Allison. Not that Allison would be able
to sustain the blows Steph was landing. One or two good hits to the face and
the woman would be on the ground bleeding and begging for mercy. She wanted to
hurt the woman just as badly as the woman had hurt Zeb. Steph wanted to kill
the bitch for possibly ruining such a beautiful submissive, that he’d never
want to submit to Steph.
    “That’s it, work it out. Get it out of your
system.”
    Nicky’s words were a blur as she continued
to work through the turbulent emotions which nearly had nearly torn her apart
in the hospital. If the woman were here, she wouldn’t leave the room breathing.

    Ethan
joined Davis in their shared office. He ’d
been reluctant to leave Zebadiah at the hospital, but the doctor had wanted to
keep the other man for observation, for not only his concussion, but the high
amount of sedative in his system required constant supervision. Davis and he
couldn’t give Zeb that kind of care because it was Subbie Night at New
Beginnings. They couldn’t cancel the night on such short notice, nor did they
have the staffing to cover one or the other off. Toby, Davis’s cousin and
sometimes Dungeon Monitor/security was out of town for his mother’s surgery and
Kaleb had an art exhibit going on at the youth center where Bella worked.
    “Shit, I can’t believe the dumb bitch tried
coming here and attacking Zeb again.” Davis tossed his attaché case on the
desk.
    They’d barely had time to get back to the
house, grab a bite to eat and change into their leathers before coming down to
the club. The fact Davis had brought is work with him wasn’t surprising. The
first couple of hours of the night, Ethan would be able to handle the club with
the help of a few of the house Doms who volunteered their time in exchange for
reduced fees.
    “She’s obviously not all there in the head,
Davis. I’ll warn the rest of the staff to be on watch for her when they arrive.
You have the pictures right?”
    Davis had printed out Allison’s mug shot
for Ethan to give to all the staff. They hadn’t wanted a slip like what had
happened the night of Zeb’s original attack. One of the new house Doms hadn’t
recognized Allison and had allowed her and Zeb in with disastrous results.
    “Yep, right here.” He opened his case and
pulled out a stack of black and white pictures. Davis handed them to him. “God,
I don’t want to do this tonight when Zeb is in the hospital. He’s a club
favorite and some of the regulars are sure to ask. Especially Tianna. They’ve
gotten close over the past few weeks since we’ve let Zeb work in the bondage
room as a D.M.”
    Ethan smiled at the mention of one of the
regular subbies who attended every Friday night. She was unattached but very
curious. And one of the reasons we decided
on having Subbie Night. A safe environment for inquisitive beginners to find
out about the lifestyle. “Yes they have. She’s been good for him. While not
dominant in the least bit, Zeb told me she reminded him of himself when he
first started out, curious as a kitten and with as little regard for her
safety. Thank heaven Lauren took her under her wing and brought her to us. I
shudder to think what would’ve happened if she hadn’t.”
    Predictably Davis growled at his mention of
Lauren. Ethan sighed. His partner had been lusting after the little blonde
since the first time she’d crossed the threshold at New Beginnings nearly three
years ago. “Davis, when are you going to move on and find another submissive?”
    Davis rubbed the back of his neck and threw
his feet up on the desk in front of him. “When she doesn’t make my dick hard
just by breathing. I have patience, Ethan. She’ll eventually get tired of
playing her games and then I’ll have her. She’s been warned.”
    The dark promise
