I’m still cupping her face in my hands, so I move one to her breast and pinch her nipple while growling, “Look at me when I make you come.”

The pinch is all she needs to explode, milking my cock empty in the process.

Well, I’ll be damned.I think I just made love for the first time in my life.And I’ll be even more damned.It was phenomenal.

I drop my forehead to hers. “Fuck,I love you so much, baby.”

“I love you too,” she says as she runs her hands through my sweat damp hair. “So, so, so, so much.” She punctuates every “so” with a kiss.

I roll us over to where she’s on top of me and fall asleep with my cock buried inside the woman I love.

Chapter twenty-one

I’m not entirely sure what I was expecting a Halloween party at Rendezvous to look like, butthisis beyond anything I could have imagined. Jack is clearly in his Roaring 20s era, based on the fact that the entirety of the club is dripping in art deco excess. While there wasn’t a dress code, per se, all the waitstaff are dressed accordingly, and crystals drip from almost every surface. It’s incredibly decadent, and based on the dancing going on already, people are truly indulging this evening.

Ledger, predictably, already had our outfits ready for tonight, and we’re both on theme and on brand for ourselves as a couple. He decided to flip our roles from the church play, meaning he’s looking exceedingly dapper and not really all that angelic in an all-white suit, while I’m wearing a pair of devil horns and a black-beaded mini-dress.

He interrupts my awe-filled perusal of the main club space, suggesting we go find the man of the hour and offer our regards before heading to the exhibition hall for the more salaciousactivities he’s planned for the evening.Not that he would tell me anything.

Ledger moves to continue into the hallway leading to the exhibition space he’s picked for us tonight, but before we get there, we run into Jack.

“Jack! You’ve outdone yourself, brother. I don’t want to know what this is costing us, but whatever magic you’re working with the special events is clearly paying off,” Ledger says, bringing Jack in for a hug.

“Thanks, Boss. Something about the theme nights really brings out my creative juices,” Jack gives me a quick wink, and I roll my eyes already knowing he’s about to try his best to rile Ledger up. “And hello, Sloane, dear, you’ve never looked more ravishing.”

Jack takes a step toward me, reaching for my hand to bring it to his mouth for a kiss. I’m not sure what’s gotten into me tonight, but I decide to give Ledger a little tease. “Mmm…good evening, Jack,” I say in the most seductive voice I can conjure, enjoying the feeling of Ledger tensing behind me.

Ledger takes Jack’s hand from mine and twists his arm around in what appears to be a painful grip. Turning him, Ledger gives Jack a little shove back toward the dance floor.

“That’s quite enough out of you for the evening, I think,” he growls, leveling Jack with a stare that would make many men piss themselves out of fear. Jack, however, simply smirks, shakes out his tux jacket, and gives me another wink before roaming back into the crowd.

Sensing that I need to get Ledger out of this growly, possessive mood, I decide to play up how excited I am to return to the exhibition hall. And Iamexcited. But I’m also nervoussince Ledger mentioned tonight would feature a different set of exhibits from the last time I was here.

“Baby,” I whisper, barely loud enough to be heard over the music flowing from the dance floor. “Can we go to the exhibition hall now?”

Ledger angles his head to look down at me, and the cold look in his eye transforms into something softer but no less predatory.I’m just the prey now, rather than Jack.“Of course we can. It’s almost time for the scene that I’m most excited for you to see, so we won’t have as much time to wander as the last time you were here.”

I give him a soft smile. “Whatever you want, pumpkin.”

“Pumpkin? You’ve settled on pumpkin now?” he half-heartedly groans, smiling as we make our way upstairs. “I thought you had settled on babe since you won’t call me husband and you didn’t like daddy when you tried.”

I roll my eyes at him as we stop just outside the exhibition hall doors. “Well, ‘tis the season, you know. It’s fall vibes.”

He’s looking at me fiercely now, with a dark possessive look I’ve come tolove,because it means he’sthis closeto losing his control. That has led to many orgasms over the past week. Not too bad for Sloane, I must say.

He leans down until we’re eye to eye, his stormy grays already blown wide with lust. “I might not be either of those things currently, baby, but I’ll be both before you know it, so I suggest you start wrapping your head around calling me both. Sooner rather than later.” He gives my bottom lip the briefest of touches, then brings his gaze from my lips back to my eyes. “Nod if you understand.”

I nod. God, he’s mesmerizing. I’ll call him anything he wants. I’m honestly ready to just get on my knees for him right now, but the doors open behind us, signaling the start of the evening’s festivities. Some scenes are already underway, giving the exhibitionists time to ease into things before the voyeurs arrive.

“See what I mean about this evening having completely different offerings than the last time you were here?”

And boy, do I. We’re walking at a moderate pace, without time to stop and really take in any of the scenes, but it’s obvious the Halloween spirit is alive and well in the hall. We pass what appears to be a priest/sinner role play including a confessional booth, a vampire-themed knife play scene, and…what looks suspiciously like a classroom at a wizarding school, with a dark-haired professor sitting at a desk and multiple female students mixing things in cauldrons as he berates their progress. I lift a brow questioningly at Ledger.

He sighs. “Thatis a scene we have a monthslong waitlist for. It’ll go on for hours, then devolve quite rapidly into, well… Let’s just say they all get very bad marks and have to servedetention.”

I giggle, thinking that sounds pretty fun. However, I’m such a good student that it might upset me to receive a bad grade, even in a kinky scene. As we continue, I’m about to ask Ledger if I could find an old uniform to wear and work on “homework” in our home office one day when he turns to me, giving me a contemplative look.

“This is something that I think you’ll like, based on our experiences last time. But if you don’t, the safe word wediscussed is applicable. You’ll let me know immediately if you want to stop playing?”
