Page 30 of Enthrall Ecstasy
Smugness settled on his face. “See how that works?”
Rue flirtatiously stepped forward and peered up at me. “Unless you’re my master now?”
“You know nothing about him,” snapped Faulkner.
“I’m a good judge.”
“He won’t take you to Pendulum,” he added.
“But he can get me into Enthrall.” Rue brightened.
That was never going to happen.
Even so, I went with, “I’ll consider it.”
“You don’t have the balls to defy my mistress,” she teased.
There was only one way to get a handle on this;on her.
I towered over Rue and commanded her. “Take off your watch. Give it to him.”
“Why?” She glanced at Faulkner for reassurance.
I stepped closer. “Do I look like I’m negotiating?”
In a flurry of movement, Rue slipped the Rolex off her wrist and handed it over to Kaison. “Were you tracking me with this?”
Annoyed, he shoved it into his pocket.
Defeat didn’t look good on him.
Rue faced me, looking spectacularly alluring.
She’d turned obedient, responding perfectly to my crafted illusion that I was her new Dom.
“Get in,” I ordered her.
She hurried back toward the passenger seat of the Rover.
“There’ll be consequences for this,” Kaison muttered under his breath.
“I can handle them.”
“She’s sold, Shay. You should have put in a bid.”
Glancing back at him, I added, “Delete all the footage you’ve taken of her. Or I’ll delete you.”
“As if I’d take any,” he said, confirming my suspicion that she’d been more to him than he was letting on.
I rejoined Rue in the car.
“Change of plan,” I told her as I drove us out of the parking lot.
“Where are we going now?”
“That was not me giving you permission to speak.”
“Like I need it.” She sunk back into the leather seat.
