“I’m back.”

My head snapped to Anthony and I watched Josie slip her arm around his. My stomach flipped. “The girls can talk,” she dramatically said and Anthony simply shook his head.

“It’s okay, dear,” he reassured her.Dear?“I want you to meet some people,” he said and she turned, allowing her eyes to fall on us.

I didn’t miss the subtle freeze in her body as she shifted her eyes between the four of us. Anthony introduced Josie as hisdate, and she awkwardly smiled, but it kept faltering.Oh—my—God.

By the faint confusion on my guys’ faces, I’d say it’s safe to assume they were just as stunned as I was.

“Why don’t you show Dakota around?” he asked but it was definitely a command. “She’s new.”

Josie smiled—fully—and batted her eyelashes at him. “Yes sir.”Sir?

She took my hand in hers, completely ignoring the guys and pulled me with her. Without waiting for their approval, I allowed her to take me away.Yes ‘sir’? Is she—are they…?

In confusion, I followed her and she hooked my arm with hers.Oh.

It suddenly clicked. That’s what Chase meant when he asked if I was being serious about ‘finding three new Dom’s’.But then that must mean—

“We haven’t officially met,” she smiled over at me. “I’m Josie.”

“Dakota,” I returned her smile as she led me into a different space.

We sat down next to each other at a table and she sighed—heavily. “It just feelssogood to not be around them, doesn’t it?” she asked, nearly chugging down her drink and my brows drewtogether in confusion. “You know… being obedient and always on edge.”

“You mean with the guys?” I asked for clarification and she nodded. “Oh. Well, no, not really,” I half smiled.

“You’re not on edge around them?” she questioned like she wasn’t understanding me.

“Nope,” I popped the ‘p’ as I lifted my glass to my lips. “Theyare on edge aroundme,” I leaned in to whisper and she broke out in a laugh, making me smile as well.

“Well, good. Now, they finally know what it’s like being on the receiving end,” she said. “On behalf of all submissives, we thank you,” she playfully bowed her head and I chuckled.Oh, she’s a submissive…

After I visited the club for the first time with the guys, I had called Lindsey to ask some questions I was too embarrassed to ask the guys about. I quickly learned that I was a submissive, but more specifically, abrat.

Josie and I both held matching smiles as we conversed about everything, and it seemed as though we were complete opposites yet so similar.

After what felt like hours of chatting, Anthony finally approached us, stealing her away. She kissed my cheek with a little finger wave—shocking me—before leaving with him.

Uneasiness took over my body as I watched her walk away with Anthony.

The guys all stopped in front of me and I took the last sip of my drink, looking down at the table as I placed the empty glass down.

I lifted my eyes to the three of them, noticing their hesitation. “Nervous?” I mused, taking my time to look each of them in their eyes.

Kaden’s jaw ticked and I smiled.

“One Dom down, two more to go,” I tapped my chin, casually looking around and Logan pulled out the chair in front of me, sitting down.

“Enough.” His voice sent chills down my spine and I crossed my legs, straightening my posture. “What did the two of you talk about?” he asked, and I could tell that he wasn’t too happy.

“Just the pain and torture of being a submissive to three Dom’s,” I casually replied, looking around the room. “She understood me. Who would’ve thought?” I teased—with a smile—but when I met their gazes my smile dropped and I apologized.Not the time, Dakota.

Kaden rubbed his tongue on the inside of his cheek and again, the vibrations buzzed between my legs. I squeezed my thighs together, suppressing a moan and looked up at Chase.

“Answer the question. Truthfully,” he said and I could slowly feel the vibrations increase.

“We just… talked,” I murmured, shifting on the chair. “Girl talk, that’s all. We—oh—” I cut myself off as dark lust slithered through my body. “Oh, God,” I breathlessly whispered underneath my breath. “We were just getting to know each other,” I said as I gripped the edge of the table.
