Calvin’s POVI was on a mission to trick Rhodes into fessing up whatever he knew about Frances Culpepper’s whereabouts. Yet my spies were letting me down. That guy was slippery as fuck. Maybe he had an alias now.Call it coincidence but I happened to be reviewing the list of applicants for membership and a certain Xander West leaped out at me, simply because of the photo on his obviously fake ID card. Reading further, alarm bells started ringing when I saw he claimed to have sufficient funds owing to mining interests and a stake in a casino, whatever that meant. It was probably bullshit, but worth checking out.There was no way I would admit him through the doors here on a permanent basis, but if I could lure him to ‘Remus’, maybe I could learn more about what had happened to Tori’s sister.I’d been going to offer to help the remaining members of Black Gold but was called away – one of my sister’s many crises – and by the time I returned Alpha Joseph had scooped some of them up.For a
Tori’s POV Alpha Calvin was testing me. He couldn’t help it. The idea of taking part in a pain management session didn’t disturb me; I needed this, too. I kept glancing at him while I worked, but he was in his own zone now. All too soon it was time to see Ruth, who I had been introduced to once and knew only slightly. She was a Beta’s daughter from another pack who had come to ‘Remus’ for work when her pups were full grown. I wasn’t the only outsider then. Yet this place didn’t give me that vibe. It was hardly a family, as he had claimed, although Naomi was as caring as any she-wolf I’d ever known and the Delta, despite his cocky bravado, usually treated me with a kind of reverence. That wouldn’t be the case today. I supposed he may be dreading it, too. How far should he push me, knowing the Alpha could turn up at any time? When I found out we would be in the Lily Suite which also had a viewing area, my own nerves returned full force. We might not necessarily know he was presen
Calvin’s POVSeeing Tori suspended like that in the flimsiest of outfits, I struggled for control. Each time my Delta struck her with the flogger she gasped, eventually letting out a prolonged moan and I realised she was probably a pain slut without even being aware of it.The problem with a sub like that, especially when new to the scene, was that the Dom mustn’t allow himself to become carried away simply because she seemed to be enjoying it. He would need to take extra care to ensure she was okay, something Travis was already realising.He even took the opportunity to point it out to the watchers.“Any questions?”“I have one.” It was Thomas Archer who spoke, an Alpha I knew little about other than the size of his fortune. A seasoned member, who insisted I call him Tommy, he tended to keep himself to himself when he attended these occasions. Not today. “Would it be a form of edging to deny someone pain?”I hadn’t thought about it like that. Travis was taking his time answering.I s
Tori’s POVI could see I’d shocked the Alpha. How would he feel when I asked about a more managerial role for those who’d been at the club a long time? I didn’t raise it then because I was distracted by the sight of Calvin coming round the desk and making a beeline for the armchair adjacent to the couch.Had he had his fill of looking at me? I knew I wasn’t perfect and tried not to take it personally. When I heard his zipper coming down it was my turn to be shocked when he freed his dick and began to pump it, hard and fast.I felt my cheeks grow hot and averted my eyes.“No, don’t look away.” It was a dominant’s command and I watched, fascinated as he masturbated in front of me. “This is your fault,” he smirked, staring lustfully at my bare breasts.I re-arranged my hair deliberately to cover them.“Is that better?” I sassed.“Spread your legs,” he panted, hoarsely.“Why?”“Don’t be difficult, princess.”That word again. For some reason it made me melt. My bones felt like syrup as I l
Calvin’s POVI hadn’t wanted Tori to leave but was too proud to admit that. Fuck, I’d have had her in my bed – my own rules be damned! – if I had my selfish way. I’m too stubborn for my own good.My thoughts turned to the submissives and our productive discussion regarding them. Naomi was going to love this. I planned to ask for her help regarding an enticing scene to welcome our new VIP members, an advance showing, as it was going to involve two subs being chastised for fooling around while awaiting their lovers.She was good at devising these kind of ‘plays’ and I was beginning to understand why. Tori had asked why we didn’t have dominatrices and I just couldn’t allow it, but there was no reason we couldn’t showcase gay tops and bottoms, if there was sufficient demand for that kind of thing, starting with females and maybe moving on to males.It could take place in a separate club or we could expand. I sighed. Maybe I was being too prejudiced. Some shifters might want to be controll
Tori’s POV I thought the Alpha was just joking but, as soon as we were through the office door, he pounced, pinning me against it. “Are you okay?” he whispered, nuzzling my neck. He was careful to avoid the marking place, but found my sweet spot several times. “Define ‘okay’, boss.” “Up for it,” he said, making me squeal. I really wanted to hit him. “Are you going to lock the door, Alpha?” “No way.” “But what if someone comes?” Realising what I’d said I felt my cheeks heat up. “Then you’ll be under my desk rather than on top of it, Miss Culpepper,” he told me. “There isn’t enough room,” I panted, looking at the laptop and Newton’s cradle with its magnetic balls. “Clear it,” he ordered. “You have five minutes, tops.” I didn’t move. “Make me,” I said. “Don’t be a brat. I can always take you over my knee and spank you.” I’m not sure why, but I felt the tears begin to form. “Hey,” he said, tilting my chin. “Talk to me.” “It’s Els,” I blurted, acknowledging the truth at las
Tori’s POVI woke up alone to a familiar scent. Disorientated, I grabbed the duvet and sniffed to be absolutely sure. Then I panicked. It was a no-no to be here in Alpha Calvin’s bed. Had I snuck in once he went into the bathroom?As I was about to head over to the couch a hazy memory surfaced. I looked down at the babydoll and my jaw went slack.Had all that really happened? And where was he now, the boss who was contradicting himself, breaking his own rules?Should I join him in the shower?The en suite was empty. I couldn’t decide if I was relieved or disappointed.Wandering to the closet I saw I had several dresses to choose from, which I supposed was his way of showing his appreciation for my additional, otherwise unpaid, services. Selecting a cream one with a scalloped neck, I laid it on the couch while I went in search of underwear. That was scarcer, so I had to make do with some racy lingerie not intended to be worn to the office, unless it were for the purpose of role play.T
Calvin’s POVSo far, my day was going well. Tori had some of her sparkle back. I knew I’d done right to allow her friend and flatmate to see her. I was less sure about the wisdom of Miss Cooper returning to ‘Remus’ one evening, but I judged it might prove enlightening.My mind was opening up to all sorts of possibilities. I realised I’d been too gender orientated in terms of the club. If we were to expand or open a second establishment, maybe she-wolves would become paying members in future. Though I still wasn’t comfortable with the idea of having female dominants, or Dommes.That wasn’t an image I wanted to be associated with ‘Remus’.Maybe I could call the other club ‘Foxy’ or ‘Reynard’. When I mentioned it to Tori, straight away she suggested ‘Vixens’.I liked the sound of that.Things were taking shape in a way I never thought they would prior to her joining us.I was staring at the laptop when Tori spoke.“This role play, it’s a rehearsal for one of our planned theme nights, cor
