“Hello, everyone. Can I have your attention, please?” The words coming from the stage pull my attention along with my brothers.
Lachlan shoots me a look like he’s warning me that this better work, but it’s all in his hands now. I’ve already done my part. I give him a chin lift and a smirk, which only pisses him off. He needs to get out of his head and calm the fuck down. I nod toward our woman who has moved closer to the stage because he needs to focus on her, and everything will be fine.
The older guy on the stage with a mic in his hands is attractive as hell. It’s clear he still takes care of himself and the bits of grey on his temples make him look more distinguished. I hope that’s not what our woman is into because it’s not what she’s getting with us. At least not yet.
“Welcome, everyone, to the first Wicked Temptation Key Party. We are glad you all have decided to join us tonight for what we hope will turn into an annual event. I’m Damien and your MC for the night. A few housekeeping issues to get out of the way before we get to the real reason you’re all here. Everyone here was medically checked for any transmittable diseases and pregnancy. While we’ve been given the all-clear, I still want to mention there are condoms in the bag you will be given once your key number is called. Using them or not is on you.”
Fuck. The thought of sinking into Lennon without anything between us steals my attention for a moment. I swear I can feel how she’ll squeeze my dick so damn good, like her sweet pussy never wants to let it go.
I try and shake the thoughts away, but it’s not easy. When an image of our woman round with our baby pops into my head, I almost drop to my damn knees. I wobble a little, but Kemp is there to grip my shoulder with a knowing look on his face.
Yeah, he’s right there with me.
Damien continues on, not knowing even a little bit how much I’m struggling, “Next, you all signed a waiver and an NDA to attend tonight; so as the old saying goes, what happens here stays here.”
He pauses for a second, but he’s wrong. What happens here is not staying here. This is just the start of us claiming our woman. But, still, I get what he means.
“Lastly, in the same bag with the contraceptives, there will be some fun little toys you’re welcome to keep and a list of your partner’s hard and soft limits. These limits are to be respected at all costs. Security is posted around the inside of the club, so if there are any issues, please reach out and it will be handed immediately.”
I glance around the room and notice the security guys right away. That does make me feel a little better about our woman’s safety. What if Lachlan wasn’t as obsessed with her as he is? What if we had no idea she was coming here tonight? I’m glad she would have been safe if we weren’t here.
“Tonight is supposed to be fun, not some shit you’d see in a bad porno. Okay, so without further ado, let’s get me off the stage and see who’s playing with whom tonight, shall we? Men who are picking keys please line up and when I call your name please step up onto the stage. You’ll draw a keycard, and I will announce the name and number of who you drew. The rest is all up to you guys,” there’s amusement in Damien’s voice before he flashes a knowing grin. “Have fun and be safe!”
My heart starts to pound in my chest as Lachlan walks with purpose to get into the line which is forming quickly. I almost roll my eyes when he’s second in line, but I’m not at all surprised. He’s eyeing the man in front of him like he’s considering knocking him out of the way. He won’t do it…probably.
“Lach would push that guy to the side if there weren’t so many people watching right now,” Kemp quips with a chuckle.
I laugh as my eyes sweep across the room to find Lennon. Her head is tilted slightly, and I swear she’s studying our brother. Fuck, could she be feeling this too? I can only hope that she is. It would make this whole thing so much easier.
She’s going to be pissed when she finds out who we are. I have a feeling we’re going to have to take this being a set-up to the fucking grave.
I don’t pay attention to what happens to the guy who pulls the first keycard. I don’t need to. He’s not getting our woman. I send a wish out into the universe that Lach can pull this off when he’s called up.
Even though I knew what he was about to do, I didn’t see a damn thing and I breathe a sigh of relief. Kemp lets out a low whistle and when I glance at him, he’s clearly impressed with our brother’s ability to pull that shit off.
It’s not easy to impress Kemp. He’s damn good at masking his emotions. I have a feeling he’s going to have to get over that shit when it comes to Lennon.
“You’ve pulled keycard number nine,” Damien announces. “Your lovely lady for the night is Lennon.”
I swear our woman blushes slightly as she starts to make her way up to the stage. Kemp starts moving as well, but I’m frozen for a moment. I don’t even know why, maybe because I’m surprised that we actually pulled it off and are about to meet the woman we’ve been pining over for far too fucking long.
I’m a few steps behind my brother and watch as Lachlan is handed a goody bag and a piece of paper with Lennon’s hard and soft limits on it. The keycard that drew our woman is also the key for the room we’ll be using for the night. It’s smart of the organizers to insist that you stay on the premises for the night to have your fun.
With a nod toward Damien, Lachlan places a hand on the small of Lennon’s back and starts to lead her off the stage where we’re waiting for her. When her brown eyes meet mine, I swear it’s like being punched in the gut. Her eyebrows shoot up before a smile starts to grow on her face.
When she’s standing in front of us, not even worried about how Lachlan is caging her in from behind, she sasses us, “I didn’t realize I get a three for one deal tonight.”
“Guess it’s your lucky night,” I practically purr the words and wiggle my eyebrows in the most ridiculous fashion I can muster.
She throws her head back and laughs at my antics and my heart fucking soars. I want her to be comfortable with us. I want her to know she’s safe.
“We can do introductions in the room, if that’s good with you,” Lachlan leans in and speaks softly next to Lennon’s ear.
The way she shivers has me biting back a groan. I don’t need any more proof that she would be responsive as fuck to us.
I’m in a haze, thinking about how much fun we’re going to have with our woman, while I follow behind her and my brothers until we get to room nine. Lachlan is quick to coax her inside, as if he’s afraid she’s going to run.
She won’t. Not yet at least. That’ll happen when she finds out who we really are.
