Immediately, I envisioned forcing my omega to stand, naked and messy, in front of the window while I implied that anyone passing could see just how much of a whore he was. That brought a smile to my face.
 
 I inserted my key card in the slot by the door and the lights came on, making my smile widen. Benny hadn’t been lying when he’d said all the equipment I’d requested was there. The St. Andrew’s Cross I’d listed as preferred equipment was there as was the padded bench with straps. There was plenty of rope laid out on the coffee table in front of a black leather sofa along with a few spreader bars and various leather restraints.
 
 I deposited my bag on the sofa, then walked around the suite to see what other treats had been left for me. The bedroom could only be described as sensuous, with more floor to ceiling windows. Removable restraints had been attached to the posts and headboard of the bed, and a pile of absorbent pads and towels lay folded on the end of the bed. I supposed that was a good idea, since I wouldn’t exactly want to call room service in the middle of a scene, but I didn’t love resting in a soggy bed. And if I had my way, things would getreallysoggy.
 
 The bathroom was equally luxurious with a walk-in shower which had also been fitted with restraints. Along with the ropes and restraints in the main room, the bedroom also contained a wide collection of lube, spermicide gels, condoms, and even Heat Lightning pills.
 
 As expected, the team at the Dark Fantasies Club had thought of absolutely everything to make the next couple of days as enjoyable as possible. I went back to the main room to unpack my bag and set up my toys the way I wanted them, giddy to get started.
 
 I was halfway through my prep when there was a knock on the door. Tensing, I went over to check through the peephole, then relaxed as I saw Caden Kuhl’s distorted image.
 
 “Hello, Mr. Kuhl,” I said as I opened the door for him.
 
 “Please, call me Caden,” Caden said, stepping into the suite and offering his hand. I shook it, feeling a little bit like I was meeting a celebrity. Caden and Hamish were famous in the DFC and beyond.
 
 “It’s a pleasure to meet you,” I said, shaking his hand.
 
 What I hadn’t expected was for him to be so nice and seem so mild-mannered.
 
 “I’m so glad you could make it,” Caden said, letting my hand go. “We’re really excited about this event. The beta program worked so well this summer that we immediately knew it needed to be a regular, quarterly event.”
 
 “I’m honored to be chosen,” I said.
 
 Caden looked past me at the room, then said, “Looks like you’re all ready.”
 
 “As ready as you can be for something like this.”
 
 Caden laughed. “You’ll get into the swing of things right away, trust me. Hamish and I explain everything you need to know about the scenario and how the auction will work atorientation. Once you get your omega up here, I’m sure you know what to do.”
 
 “Definitely,” I said with a grin that was probably more wolfish than it needed to be.
 
 “Have you read the dossier for your omega yet?” Caden asked.
 
 I flushed a little. “No, I was busy setting up. I was just about to get to it.”
 
 “All the information you need to know about his playing style, limits, and safe words are in there, but I wanted to speak to you personally about him beforehand.”
 
 That piqued my interest. “Is there something unusual about him?” I asked.
 
 “There is,” Caden answered with a nod. “Your omega is somewhat famous, in certain circles.”
 
 “Really?” My mind immediately ran through a dozen different celebrity omegas who I thought he could be.
 
 “He’s Lucien Monteverdi,” Caden said. The name didn’t ring a bell until he went on with, “He’s a world-class figure skater who won gold at Nationals just last week and who will be representing us at the Winter Games in February.”
 
 “Wow!” I did know who he was. Figure skating wasn’t my thing, but we’d had the competition last week on in the firehouse lounge while on call. I remember being impressed with the gorgeous, classically good-looking omega, especially when he landed some pretty serious jumps while also managing to be incredibly graceful.
 
 Who would have known that someone so lyrical was also kinky enough to belong to the Dark Fantasies Club and to be selected for the omega auction?
 
 Selected to be my match in the omega auction.
 
 My heart definitely beat harder, sending all the blood straight to my cock and balls.
 
 “I wanted to let you know in advance because of his celebrity status,” Caden said. “I know it goes without saying, but when we have a celebrity who plays, there’s an extra burden on us to keep things absolutely discreet. Lucien is a very hard player, but he also has a public image to maintain.”
 
 “Gotcha,” I said, nodding. I also imagined that, as an elite-level athlete, it was probably important not to break him too much. Then again, he knew what he’d signed up for, and from the sound of things, he’d just finished a competition and would have time to recover before the next one. “I’ll keep all that in mind,” I finished.
 
 “Good,” Caden said with a nod. “Now if you’ll excuse me, I’ve got a couple other calls to make before the main event. I’ll see you downstairs in—” he glanced at his watch, “—twenty minutes for orientation.”
