Page 40 of My Sweetest Temptation

“Me too,” I said with a smile.

Her smile widened and she sauntered away, the bouncer following close behind. I turned back to Mya when I heard her phone ding. She glanced at the screen and muttered a curse before looking back at me. “I’ve gotta handle a situation,” she said, waving her phone. “Enzo will walk you back to the office and when I return, we’ll start your training,” she added and walked away.

“Ready?” he asked.

“Yes,” I replied, falling into step beside him as he led the way down the hall.

He was slightly intimidating, but I felt comforted by his presence.

Enzo stepped aside to let me in the office, standing sentinel at the door. I walked in, scanning the room, and noticed Mya’s desk was cluttered but cozy. Among the papers, I spotted a picture of Mya with an adorable little boy who looked about three or four. He must have been Mya’s son. He had her smile.

I saw more photos on the walls of Mya with what looked like her parents, and another shot of her with Nico and the guys at some kind of party. They all looked like they were having a blast, and it was clear they were a tight-knit crew.

With a resigned sigh, I plopped down in one of the chairs, pulling out my phone to pass the time since I wasn’t given an actual task to do. Scrolling through my feed, I tried to distract myself, but the minutes dragged on. After a while, I tucked my phone away, feeling bored and a little antsy. I glanced at the clock and realized an hour had slipped by.

Just then, my bladder made its demands known. I opened the door and peeked outside. The hallway was empty, except for Enzo, who quirked an eyebrow at me as if silently asking where I was off to.

“I have to go the bathroom,” I told him.

“Go down this hall until you see the stairs. Take them to the next level and take a right. It will be on your left.”

I nodded and headed to the lady’s room. I walked past a few people going about their business and found another hallway that led to another lower level. This place was so confusing. I couldn’t seem to remember where anything was from when Mya gave me a quick tour. But I did remember her telling me there was one area that was forbidden and to stay clear of it.

When I reached the steps, I glanced over my shoulder to see if anyone was looking, but the coast was clear. My gut told me I shouldn’t go down there because I wouldn’t like what I saw. But my mind told me to be nosy and take a peek. Ever since my parents were tragically taken from me, I’d come to understand the importance of knowing every escape route and hiding spot.

When I walked down the black spiral stairs, the music from the club faded away.

No way. Is the area soundproof?

I cast another quick glance behind me as though someone was going to reach out and snatch me away. What if this was a dungeon where no one could hear the victims scream?

I shook my head at the thought and continued forward.

The lights on the steps were only bright enough to see the next step. Upon reaching the bottom, I entered an open area with a marble floor and a chandelier hanging above.

I walked to the door and noticed an entry pad with buttons. Crap. I couldn’t get in unless I had access. Just as I was about to walk away, the door opened, and I quickly hid behind the alcove by the door. A man in a suit exited, engaged in a phone conversation, allowing me to rush in without being noticed. The door quietly closed, and the light on the keypad turned red.

“Oh, my God,” I whispered.

The dark, beautiful room was decorated with rich colors. Another stairwell reached toward the lower level. In the middle of the room was a round dancing platform covered by a black and red crystal curtain that resembled a waterfall with two very naked woman dancing in heels.

A few men sat on the black leather sectional that curved around the area and... holy shit! They had their dicks out and were jacking off as they watched the women dance.

I turned to the left when a woman’s high-pitched laugh cut through the air. My jaw dropped at the scene that could be straight out of a porno. A naked woman rode a man’s dick like it was a wild bull. And as if that wasn’t enough to render me speechless, a second naked woman sat on his face while he ate her out.

I stood in place, unable to move while my curiosity took control of my body and mind. I couldn’t tear my eyes away from every movement, every moan, and every touch that seemed to ignite a hidden desire within me.

“What the...?” I said quietly.

The sound of footsteps approached from behind, and a deep, authoritative voice said, “What are you doing here, angel?” I spun around to find myself face to face with Nico. His sharp gaze pierced through my very soul, and I felt a chill run down my spine.

Oh, shit.

NICO

I’d been watching Winter on the security feed since the moment she decided to roam the club on her own. I smirked when her curiosity got the best of her and she found herself wandering into the back of the VIP room at the exclusive sex club. She didn’t know what she was getting into, but I was going to love playing this game with her.

She was naive and didn’t notice how close I was behind her. Once she snuck into the room, I made my move.
