“Yeah, sure.” Duncan adjusted his bag over his shoulder. He never went to the club without it. If his meeting with Trixie went fast enough, he had the rest of the night to play. “I’ll lock you in.”

Duncan pulledup to the gated building and stopped for the guard. He motioned to the vehicle behind him before he said, “They’re with me. I’m here to see Trixie, and they’re my guests.”

The guy nodded. “Good to see you again, Master Duncan. Have a good evening.”

Duncan grinned. “Thank you.”

He pulled into the parking lot and found a space near the entrance. Once Thomas parked as well, he got out and motioned for them to follow. Scotty still limped a little from the gunshot wound. He was healing well according to AJ, who’d been taking care of him while also working another case. Thomas joined Duncan as they got to the door. The first person Duncan talked to about bringing Bella and Enzo to the club was Thomas. There were more pros than cons to this particular situation, despite the risk.

“Are you ready for this?” Thomas’s question didn’t surprise him.

Duncan glanced at his friend. He wore a waistcoat with slacks and a button-down shirt. Unlike Duncan’s love of leather, Thomas was a Gentleman Dom, and it appeared to be rubbing off on Scotty too. Duncan had to admit, the look fit the hacker nerd. AJ, on the other hand, wore a red jumpsuit. The skintight outfit accentuated all of her curves and left nothing to the imagination. The plunging neckline allowed for both halves of the outfit to cup her small, yet perky breasts perfectly.

“I’m glad you guys decided to join me.” Duncan grabbed the handle on the door. “I thought while I discussed business with Trixie, you could enjoy the facilities.”

Thomas frowned. “I’d like to be in on the meeting with you. I think, in this situation, the more of a controlled setting we can establish from the beginning, the better off and more secure your witnesses will be.”

Duncan grunted. “Fine by me.” He motioned for them to follow.

When they stepped into the club, Paul stood at the front desk. His features brightened when he spotted Duncan. Trixie’s submissive split his time between greeting patrons of the club at the front desk and managing the wait staff. When he wasn’t doing either job for the club, he could be found beside his Mistress.

“It’s good to see you again, Master Duncan.” Paul bowed. “You’ve brought us guests.” His eyes sparkled as he took in Thomas, AJ, and Scotty.

“I did. I have an appointment with Mistress Trixie. I hoped while Thomas and I discussed business with her, Master Scotty and AJ could explore a little.”

“Of course.” He stepped behind the desk and grabbed the same forms Duncan had filled out before joining the club. “Although, since you’re not becoming members, there are still rules that must be followed. Please read over this packet and sign in all of the appropriate places. Also, I need a copy of all of your driver’s licenses or identification.”

“Posh.” Scotty signed in ASL then fished his wallet out of his back pocket while Thomas translated for him. “Makes me feel official.”

Duncan snickered. “Kid, you have tons to learn still.”

Thomas, AJ, and Scotty placed their identification on the desk in front of Paul before filling out the forms. He knew Thomas had a membership at another club somewhere in the area, but they never talked about the lifestyle much, other than knowing they were both in it. Once the paperwork was complete, AJ removed her shoes and followed Paul to the locker rooms, giving Duncan a moment to speak with Thomas.

“I didn’t say it earlier, but thanks for coming with me.” He cut his gaze to Scotty who still appeared to be healing nicely. According to Thomas, the bruising around his ribs along with the hematoma were gone. Now, all that was left to finish healing was the bullet wound on his leg. “You sure he’s going to be okay?”

Thomas nodded. “His ribs are almost mended as is his leg. He’s a bit weak still, but overall, Rae gave him a clean bill of health.”

“Good. Any luck locating Raul?”

Thomas shook his head. “He’s in the wind. Next week Scotty is being cleared to return to work. We’ll begin a secondary mission then. This one should net results.”

The door opened, and Trixie joined them. She wore a long, fitted burgundy dress, and her hair had been styled in a glamorous updo evocative of a bygone era. She reminded him of Mae West with her bombshell curves. As she glided across the room toward them, AJ came up beside Scotty and took his hand. She stared at Trixie with a mixture of awe and jealousy.

“Duncan, it’s so good to see you again.” Trixie’s husky voice oozed confidence and sex appeal.

He air-kissed Trixie then introduced his friends Thomas, Scotty, and AJ. “Everyone, this is Mistress Trixie, she owns Club X.”

“Aren’t you a treat,” Trixie murmured, placing her finger under AJ’s chin.

AJ’s cheeks turned a pretty shade of pink as she licked her bottom lip. “Yes, Mistress.”

Trixie slid her gaze to Scotty. “Which makes you our first deaf Master, how extraordinary.” She grinned. “Welcome to Club X. I hope you enjoy your visit.” She caught Scotty’s attention, so he could read her lips. “If there’s anything you need while you’re here, please let me know.” She then gave her attention to AJ. “If you have any issues, which you shouldn’t, please come find Paul. He’s the club’s manager as well as with my sub. He’ll know what to do.”

“T-thank you,” AJ said, bowing her head.

“Shall we, gentleman?” Trixie motioned to her office. “I hear we have juicy business to discuss.”

Duncan followed behind her while Thomas took a moment to instruct his sub and Scotty before kissing both of them. Duncan and Thomas trailed Trixie while AJ and Scotty went with Paul. Duncan stopped short, glancing in Paul’s direction as the man escorted Scotty and AJ onto the main floor of the club. If Duncan had to guess, Scotty and AJ would probably wait for Thomas before they tried anything.
