Yeah, he could understand the gossip and interest in him and Cassidy.

Giving Eben a nod, he turned away and headed into the club, nodding at the Dungeon Monitor guarding the door.David Moore, who David liked to think of as “other David.”He was pretty sure that the DM was part of the reason the club submissives had given him the nickname Master Ginger, to differentiate between the two Master Davids.None of them dared call him that to his face, but he knew they did it when they were talking about him—then they’d ended up giving the rest of his team Spice Girl names, too.

Other David nodded back a greeting as David passed him.

Walking into the club always felt like the rest of the world was falling away.He could walk a little easier, breathe a little easier, and just focus on what was happening right in front of him.It was an oasis away from all the problems in the world and a place where he didn’t have any responsibilities other than to the submissive he paired with for the evening.

He spotted Cassidy right away, sitting at a table with Yasmine, Naomi, and Ashley.Jensen, Drew, and Lincoln were just beyond them, talking to Master Aiden, who was behind the bar.The three men were keeping an eye on the ladies while obviously deep in their own conversation.While he watched, Cassidy threw back her head and laughed at something Naomi said.Her long, dark hair had been pulled back in a high ponytail again, the ends of it brushing across her upper back as she moved.

She looked gorgeous in a lacy black chemise that hugged her curves and the same shoes she’d been wearing the last time.There was a lot of bare skin showing, and he couldn’t help but wonder if those were the only things she had on.Maybe a thong underneath.

Blood was already racing to his dick, and he’d barely stepped into the club.

As if she’d heard him walk in, even though it was impossible, Cassidy sat up a little straighter and turned her head.Their gazes clashed from across the club.

Yeah, they were keeping everything to the club, but if he could step up what they were doing inside it, he sure as hell was going to do that.

Cassidy

The feeling of eyes on her made her skin itch, but because of where they were, it wasn’t in the way that made her want to run and hide.Sitting up, Cassidy looked around, anxious excitement welling up inside her.Right at the entrance to the club, she saw him.

Master David was wearing a pair of leather pants with a black button-down, unbuttoned at the collar and the sleeves rolled up to his elbows.All that dark fabric contrasted heavily with his skin and hair, making both appear even brighter, despite the low lighting in the bar area of the Outlands.His gaze met hers, and she knew he was the one who had been looking at her.

The movement of sitting up made her nipples brush against the lacy fabric of her chemise, the sensation teasing the little buds to hardness.Cassidy was already feeling pretty wound up, just being in the club, knowing he was coming tonight.

Had she dressed for seduction?

Absolutely.

But only if he was interested.

From what Naomi had said, he was.

He looked pretty interested right now.

“Girl, he looks like he wants to eat you up,” Yasmine murmured, fanning herself.

“Holy shit,” Ashley said.“I’ve never seen him look at anyone like that.Have they been doing this the whole time?”

“Yes,” Yasmine and Naomi chorused.

“Shh,” Cassidy hissed as Master David came closer, her heart starting to beat a little faster in her chest at his approach.He was completely intent on her, moving through the crowd with an intensely focused stare, a large black duffel bag hanging from his hand.Wondering what he had inside there made her nerves flutter.

The table fell silent when he reached them, and she could feel her friends’ eyes on her, eagerly awaiting what was going to happen next.

“Ladies,” Master David said, nodding his head as he glanced around the table before refocusing on Cassidy.

She managed to smile at him, though it felt as if her heart was beating triple time in her chest now.His nearness just made her senses go even more haywire.

“Could I steal Cassidy from you for a moment?”

Hopefully, more than a moment.

“Oh, feel free to talk to her right now,” Ashley said sweetly.“Just pretend we’re not here.We don’t mind.”

“I’m sure you wouldn’t,” Master David said dryly, leaning to set his bag down under the table right next to Lincoln and Drew’s.Straightening, he held out his hand to Cassidy, silently offering to help her down from the high-top chair.Shooting a glance of apology to her disappointed friends, she took it.

They’d just have to hear about the conversation later.
