“Thank you, Sir.”
“Is Simon done showing you around?”
“Yes, Sir,”
“Good. Are you ready to go to the hotel?”
Her nod was instant. “Yes, please, Sir.”
He chuckled. “I’m not allowed in the dungeon right now, so I need you to go get our bags. I left them by the couch. Don’t be surprised if you walk up on a blow job scene.”
“Can I stay and watch?” she asked with a grin.
“Oh. We have a voyeur on our hands. No, you may not,” he said with a chuckle. “I’m ready to take you home and fuck you.”
Austin smirked and scurried off to get their bags.
Garrett was laughing when Patrick turned his attention to him. “I should have known you would sleep with her on the first night.”
“Shut up, Garrett,” Patrick said with a teasing scowl. “I saw Isabelle. Don’t tell me you don’t want to sleep with her.”
Garrett chuckled. “Doesn’t matter what I want. We’ve met three times and she’s not interested in that with me. Just wants to be a house sub because she can’t afford dues and wants to fulfill a few submissive fantasies while she’s at it. But yes, given the chance I would absolutely take her to bed. Speaking of Isabelle, I suppose I’ve left her to stew long enough. I should get back to her.”
Patrick shook the man’s hand. When he was gone, he drained his beer and waited for Austin to return. When she came back, he stood and took the bags from her. She followed him to the lobby without a word. Patrick spotted Lance talking to Cassie and her new Dom at the reception desk and motioned for Austin to stop. “Before we leave, you should ask Lance if he’s willing to be your backup trainer.”
“Now?” she squeaked. “How do I even ask such a thing?”
Patrick chuckled. “However you ask, you better work a Master Lance in there.” He pushed her towards the desk with a pat on the butt. The threesome at the desk looked up when they approached.
“Hey you two. Leaving already?” Lance asked.
Patrick nodded. When Austin didn’t say anything he said, “Austin has something she’d like to ask you.”
Austin blew out a shaky breath. “Master Patrick says I need a backup trainer if there’s a time he can’t be here. Will you be my back up, Master Lance?”
Patrick chuckled when she added the Master Lance as an afterthought.
Lance smiled kindly. “I would be delighted. What’s your stance on being punished by a Dom other than Patrick?”
“I like how everyone just assumes I’m going to fuck up,” Austin said with a huff.
“Watch it,” Lance said. “A house sub is to be respectful at all times.”
“Sorry, Master Lance. To answer your question, I’m OK with you doing it if Pat… Master Patrick isn’t here but nobody else.”
“Why me?” he asked.
Patrick could tell he was making her uncomfortable, but it was good for her.
Austin squirmed and looked back at Patrick.
“Answer his question.”
Austin sighed. “Because we played together at one of Hunter’s parties in Vegas one time and I liked the way, you spanked me.”
Patrick chuckled. So that’s why she was quick to pick Lance as her backup.
Lance leaned in and kissed her on the cheek. “I’m honored. If I have to punish you, you willnotlike the way I spank you.”
Austin’s face heated and Patrick had mercy on her. “That’s enough tormenting her for one night. We’re going home now. Thanks Lance.”
Austin murmured goodnight to everyone, and they went outside where the car Cassie had called without being asked was waiting.
In the car, Austin asked for her phone out of her bag. They were both sought after in their businesses, so Patrick knew better than to deny her request. He probably needed to glance at his own phone too.
“Shit,” Austin said into the dark as the car drove them down the hill.
“What’s wrong?”
“I think I need to get on a plane tonight.”
