Lowering his lips to hers, he captured them in a kiss that seared her from the inside out.

Cassidy whimpered.

It had been so long since she’d been kissed.

Much less a reallygoodkiss like this one.

Firm.Confident.Eager.Filled with heat and desire.The attraction between them snapped and popped around them, the very air feeling like it was full of sparking electricity.A kiss that could melt insides and panties simultaneously.

The best first kiss of her life.

If she could freeze a moment of time in her life, this was the one she would choose.

But every moment ends, and Master David broke away from the kiss, leaving her breathless and needy, leaning against him because her knees had gone too weak to hold her up properly.She stared up at him.

“Cassidy, just to be completely clear, I want to scene with you tonight.Non-platonically.”

Finally.

“Yes, Sir,” she whispered.

David

Time to just admit what he freaking wanted.Talking around it hadn’t helped.It just made him frustrated as hell.Yes, it would be easier to give Cassidy what she wanted rather than admit what he wanted, but since she wasn’t willing to admit it, either…

He was very aware of how ridiculous they’d sounded going around and around like that and was very glad their friends had not been able to hear them.

They had, however, seen the kiss, just like the rest of the people on this floor of the club.Several catcalls and cheers were already coming from behind him.He sighed as he draped his arm around Cassidy’s shoulders, keeping her close even though she was no longer pressed up against him.

Drew, Jensen, and Lincoln had rejoined the table, no longer at the bar.Drew and Jensen were grinning.Lincoln raised his eyebrows at David, but the slight smile on his face was more amused than anything else.He didn’t disapprove.One of the little knots in David’s stomach undid itself.

If Lincoln approved, then that was fine, right?

He wasn’t doing the wrong thing by scening with Cassidy at the club.

Non-platonically.

This is what happens when you don’t just admit to a woman that you want to fuck her.You use words like non-platonically.

Though he wouldn’t feel the need to dance around it so much anymore.Cassidy had said yes.He’d already proven to himself that they could keep things to the club.His boss knew what was going on.No one else seemed to think David was doing anything wrong; they were all cheering him and Cassidy on.

He could still feel some of his internal reservations making him want to hesitate, but right now, he was just going to go with the flow.Which was not his norm, but this wasn’t exactly a normal situation.If it was a normal situation with a regular client, he would never have put his hands on her.

“Thank you all for your support,” he said sarcastically, shaking his head as he went to retrieve his bag.“We’ll see you later.”

“Go on, you two crazy kids,” Ashley said, making everyone laugh since she was the youngest person at the table.She shooed them with her hands.“Have fun.I know I’m going to.Lincoln owes me areallygood time tonight now.”She grinned up at her husband, who sighed and shook his head.

David paused.

“Wait, were you two betting on us?”

“Just a small one.”Ashley tossed her honey-streaked brown hair, clearly smug in her win.“I told Lincoln you two had a thing for each other.”

“And I told Ashley that you would never unbend about the rules enough to actually make a move on it.”Lincoln smiled.“I’m not sorry to see I was wrong.”

The rules were the rules for a reason, which was something he’d said to his team often enough.And to Lincoln more than a few times.This time, David pressed his lips together to keep from saying it.Because he was bending the rules a bit.
