“What’s the matter, Pierce?” He could hear the amusement in her tone. She knew the exact reaction she had on him, and she was never coy about it.
They reached the front door to the Murray home. A big burly guy with a white mask blocked the entrance. He held out his hand, “Invitation and ID, please.”
As soon as Raven went to move to grab the invitation from her purse, Jax reached into his pocket and pulled out a little discreet remote. His smile was wide as he looked down at her and pressed one of the many buttons. He saw the moment Raven felt the vibration against her flesh. Her eyes widened before they rolled back, and her grip on his arm tightened, as if that would be enough to hold her upright, but her body still bowed forward and a small gasp left her lips.
The guy at the door lips twitched, looking like he was fighting a smile. “Is she okay?” he coughed, and Jax felt like the masked man knew exactly what just happened to Raven.
Jax leaned beside her. He pulled his arm out of her hold so he could trail his fingertips up her leg. She sucked in a sharp breath, and he watched her shift on her feet as if that would be enough to ease the ache that settled between her legs. The panties had been a last-minute addition that Jax had welcomed. She slipped them on after he helped her insert a pretty golden butt plug she brought to prep her for tonight’s occasion.
Jax’s hand dove under the dress, hoping no one was coming up behind them because they were about to get flashed. His fingers slipped inside of her panties, and he wasn’t too surprised to find her soaked. A small groan left her lips, causing Jax to laugh under his breath.
“Are you okay, Ms. Wright? You seem to have a little trouble standing.” He placed a kiss below her ear and slowly slipped his hand out of her, loving the way her body shook against him. He wasn’t sure how tonight was supposed to go as far as when they were going to have sex, but he knew Raven wouldn’t last long.
She slowly stood to her full height, her golden eyes narrowed as she glanced in his direction. “Don’t get cocky, Pierce. Turnabout’s fair play.” She grabbed the invitation and her ID and practically shoved it at the guy blocking the door, who did shit to hide his smile.
Jax brought his fingers to his mouth, to clean them and taste the cream that seeped out of Raven. A low hum left his throat. His hunger for her only heightened his anticipation for the night, and he couldn’t wait to see what she had planned for them.
The guy blocking the door moved out of the way, handing Raven the invitation and ID back to her. He waved them forward, “Shelia will need to see your guest’s ID, but I hope you both enjoy your night, Ms. Wright.” His voice held a hint of amusement, and Jax couldn’t help but laugh out loud as they made their way down a long and dimly lit hallway that reminded him of that night in Lush.
Down the rabbit hole I go again.
A woman Jax assumed was Sheila stopped them before they could go any further. He saw the way she sized him up before her gaze turned to Raven and she licked her lips like she could already taste Raven on her tongue, and his arousal hummed to life inside of him.
Images of the woman and Raven flashed behind his lids and his grip on Raven’s arm tightened in reaction. He pulled at his collar, feeling unnecessarily hot all of a sudden. They hadn’t gone through the actual house yet, and his desires were so potent it was in the very air he was breathing.
Raven’s elbow dug into his ribs, and his attention snapped to hers. “She asked you a question, and you need to give her your ID so they can put your name down.” Raven’s amusement was clear in her tone.
Jax cleared his throat. He hadn’t heard a word the woman told him. “I’m sorry,” he pulled out his ID and handed it to her. “What did you say?”
“The invitation asked what’s your darkest secret. I can’t let you in until you tell me something.” She took Jax’s ID and wrote something down on her clipboard before handing it back to him.
Jax looked at Raven, his eyes narrowed. “Did you tell her yours?” he questioned, annoyed that he missed the exchange.
Raven nodded. “Yeah, and it was good, and, no, I’m not repeating it. Maybe you’ll get lucky and I’ll let you find out, Pierce.”
Jax felt his curiosity grow, wondering what secrets she still had that would be enough to appease the woman standing in front of them. It also made Jax wonder what he had that he could share.
The thought hit him instantly, and he turned away from Raven, moving closer to the woman in front of him. He leaned down, making sure he was as close to her ear as possible—he didn’t want his voice to carry. This secret was only something he recently thought about. He wasn’t ready to let Raven hear it, or anyone else for that matter, but it didn’t matter if he told the woman in front of him.
Jax whispered no names, just what he wouldn’t mind happening, and when he pulled back, the woman had a knowing smile on her face.
She stepped aside, waving them through. “Enjoy your night. You’ll be let into the main room momentarily, and something tells me you’re both going to enjoy finding out what your secrets are.”
Danny hid off in one of the corners that were supposed to be off limits to the guests. It was the best place to watch who came in and when. There were plenty of people here tonight that would help Danny blend in amongst the guests. Danny even wore a similar mask to two of the guests that were currently standing near the host.
They hadn’t been let into the main room yet. The host was using this time as a little meet and greet part of the night amongst the guests. It would probably go on for a couple of more minutes until the last of the guests arrived. The host had an interesting night planned and wanted everyone here at a specific time, which worked to Danny’s advantage—Danny had plans for tonight too.
A beautiful blonde walked past Danny. She was on the arm of another woman—a redhead who looked in Danny’s direction and smiled. Danny smiled back, remembering the night Danny watched her fuck Raven. Danny had to give Raven her credit, she knew exactly how to bring people to their knees from the pleasure she gave them. The two of them had been so hot that Danny’s anger had turned into arousal, and Danny had cum right along with the both of them.
It was a shame that wouldn’t be the case tonight.
Danny watched Raven and Jax walk in. The mask they chose did nothing to hide their features—though Danny knew Raven so well, she would never be able to hide, no matter how much she tried to keep from Danny. The host made an announcement, and everyone’s attention turned toward her, but Danny kept watching Raven.
Danny used to wonder how people fawned over her, but after years of planning, and watching, Danny understood the appeal now. Raven floated into rooms looking otherworldly—a goddess, even. Danny saw how people’s eyes lit up in wonder, like they’ve never seen a woman before as if she was something special meant to be praised and worshiped and have altars built for her.
It annoyed Danny.
The truth of who Raven was as a person was written all over her skin, and Danny was going to enjoy exposing her and watching her world crumble.
