I saw the Sinners stroll out of the house and pause. They glanced around, spotting Daire first. Ambling over to him, they said something I couldn’t hear from where I stood.

Leaving Clover with her friends, I went to join Daire at the table. He frowned, not liking whatever he’d heard.

“Find Blaze,” he said. “Meet us in the garage.”

I returned to Clover, telling her to stay put before I went in search of Blaze. Finding him in the living room shooting down a girl who tried desperately to flirt with him, I waved him over. Together we went out to the garage.

“What’s going on?” he asked as I pushed open the garage door.

“Not a clue. We’re about to find out.”

Daire stood with the Sinners in front of his Audi. He’d been keeping it parked in the garage in case anyone was looking for it after Brady’s disappearance. Not that anyone would miss that dumb fuck.

Scratch, Riot, and Felix all glanced over as we closed the door behind us. Riot looked far too expectant. I didn’t like this.

“Now tell them what you just told me.” Daire motioned to Blaze and me.

Riot shoved a hand through his messy black hair before shoving both hands into his pockets. “No problem. We’re here to call in the favor you owe us.”

Fuck.

This couldn’t be good. We did still owe them a favor from the first time we’d asked for their help.

“Yeah?” Blaze eyed them uncertainly. “And what favor might that be?”

“They want us to plant spy cameras in an underground sex club,” Daire broke in. “We’ll need Clover to get in.”

Riot joined in then. “Straight men can’t get into the club without a woman. You’ll have to partake in some of the activity to blend in. The club has recently come across our radar as a place where some seriously screwed up shit has been taking place.”

I exchanged a glance with Daire who appeared positively ready to lose it. “What kind of screwed up shit?” I asked.

“There’s a lot of regular, safe activity,” Felix said. “What you might expect. However, there’s a restricted area where videos are made for the dark web. People who aren’t consenting to some pretty brutal acts. Possibly even snuff films.”

“Snuff films?” Blaze blurted, incredulous. “And you want us to take Clover in there?”

“Two of you can go without her, if you want to pose as a gay couple. You just have to be willing to do whatever it takes to make it look like you belong there.” Riot smirked. “You guys owe us. We need cameras and mics on the inside. We want you guys to plant them.”

We had no choice. We’d gone to the Sinners multiple times for help. Despite the amount of money we’d already handed over to them, we did still owe them a favor. Shit.

“Fine,” Daire said after a long moment of silence. “We’ll do it.”

CHAPTER THIRTY-FIVE

CLOVER

“And you were worried about my outfit at the party?” I glanced down at my heaving cleavage. Surely it would smack me in the chin any moment now.

I stood in the upstairs bathroom with the door open, staring at myself in the mirror. A black leather corset cinched my waist and thrust my breasts up higher than they’d ever been. The tiny black tutu skirt barely covered my ass, leaving my cheeks hanging out. This was insanity.

When the guys had told me about the Sinners calling in their favor, I’d been wary. Once I heard what said favor was, I almost pissed myself.

An underground sex club? Wasn’t that for people with kinks and fetishes? Swingers and stuff? I wasn’t about to yuck anyone’s yum, but that kind of place was not for me.

Of course, hearing that there may be some deadly activity for the dark web taking place inside had made me sick. I wanted to help if people were being hurt or killed in there. Although I didn’t know if I had it in me to see this through. It would be dangerous.

Daire leaned in the doorway, watching me through the mirror. “God, I fucking hate this. I wish we didn’t have to send you in there. You do look sexy as fuck though.”

My lips were a bright red, my eyes lined in dark shadow. It definitely wasn’t my usual look. I finger combed my blonde waves and sighed.
