Touch me like that, Daddy.
Oh shit.
Biting my lip, I forced my eyes to look away, but only two seconds later, I was drawn back to them.I was so caught up in watching them, it took me a minute to realize where they were standing.
Ignite had a secret club within its walls.Inferno was a sex club owned by T.M.Pearson.I knew about it because my parents were members.I figured Eloise indulged in the perks of being a Barbier, including the pricey membership to Inferno.But I didn’t want to think about my sister partaking in a sex club.
Mr.Panther threw his head back, laughing at whatever his blond friend had just said.I had to blink a few times, transfixed by the sheer masculine beauty of watching that man laugh.
That warm feeling turned into a blaze, and I couldn’t bite my lips together in time to trap the moan that slipped free.I wanted to hear him.It made me irrationally angry that I was being denied the sound.
Clenching my fingers into a fist, I sat back.As I moved, Eloise came back into focus beside me, and every muscle in my body tensed.
Eloise was looking right at them, licking her lips like she wanted to taste them.
Ex-fucking-scuse me?
While white-hot rage began to build in my head, my sister stood and smoothed her hands down over her hips.She shimmied, and I wasn’t blind to the fact that the three delicious men were now looking our way.
Eloise smirked down at me.“To answer your question from earlier,theyare why I like coming here so often.Parker, Benson, and Malcolm make the experience so much fun, I simply cannot resist.They are why I came home this weekend.And they are here for me andonlyme.”
My heart jumped into my throat, making it hard to swallow as I shifted my gaze from Eloise to the three.Mr.Bear took a step forward.Anticipation and something hot tightened low in my belly.
Come to me, my Bear.
But in the next moment, Mr.Golden Lion grabbed his arm, halting him.
No!Come to me.
My eyes commanded them.Begged.Instead of hearing my silent plea, not one of them moved, and my heart broke.None of them were smiling now, but I could feel their gazes on us as if it were a physical touch.
I didn’t beg for anything—ever.But I would have for them.Would have done anything if it meant they were moving across that crowded floor, coming for me.
“You…with all three of them?”I choked out.
No way that was my voice.All weak and destroyed.Clearing it, I fought down the lump of emotion in my throat.No, nope, no.I was not going to be baited.Eloise was just being a bitch.
But my heart was aching.Fucking throbbing in my chest.Ready to detonate from pain.If Eloise so much as guessed at how much agony the thought of her with those three daddies caused me, she would never give me peace.She took competition too far way too often.
Astro and the two other bodyguards moved closer to us.Eloise’s buffoons stepped behind her, one of them holding a hand out to the side, as if to urge my sister in that direction.Toward the entrance of Inferno.
Toward the three daddies.
“Don’t wait for me.I’m sure your guards can get you home.I’ll see you tomorrow.”Her gaze flickered from me to the three beast-like men and quickly back again.“Or maybe not.No worries, though.I keep a go-bag in the back of my car.”
She gave me a finger wave and walked away.I turned my back to the crowd, unable to watch her leave with them.I couldn’t.
Why did it feel like my heart had splintered?
Several minutes passed, my mind in complete chaos as I tried in earnest not to think about Eloise with those three.What had she called them?Parker, Benson, and Malcolm.She knew their names.She knew what they looked like without those suits on.
They knew what my sister looked like naked.
No.I wasn’t going to think about that.Or them.With her.Fuck no!
Two hard bodies sat down on either side of me.Astro bumped my shoulder playfully, nodding toward the bottle of champagne still in the bucket of ice.“You finished with that?”
“Thought for sure she was going to beat someone like a piñata with that bottle,” Otto mused from my other side.“My money was on Eloise.”
