The club sat in an alleyway away from prying eyes. The brightness of the street quickly turned mysterious when I looked into the narrow way leading to the entrance of Darkness. Hearing the muffled sounds of music I turned to Lena and again out of place. For all the research I have done on this place, one would think I would be excited to finally gain entry into such a secretive place. Lena took my arm and we entered the alleyway. A bouncer appeared from the door, making me freeze in place. Big bulky and barely dressed the man crossed his arms. I couldn't see all his features but could make out a tattoo on his arm and a scar on his cheek. "Rocky!" Lena jumped forward and hugged the man as he uncrossed his arms. I stood in silence as I tried to keep my breathing under control, listening to the song that was playing from inside. I didn't recognize it, but it had a nice beat. "This is Alice" Lena's words brought me back and I smiled up at Rocky. "Hi" I felt my face get warm underneath all the makeup. "So you're the lady who got him to come back. I should thank you" Confused I tilted my head slightly. "Uh" Lena patted me on my back. "Don't worry about it" She whispered as he let us pass. Lena walked in front of me into the lobby area already getting into the mood. She danced to the song that was playing and didn't see me slow my strides looking at the amazing wallpaper. Royal blue night scenes with shadowed trees painted a woodland wonderland. This couldn't possibly be how Horatio saw the theme. If so, he really outdid himself. Lena spotted me staring at the wallpaper. "You think this is impressive. You should see the rooms." I turned my head to her "How did he do this in such a little amount of time? This looks amazing" Lena laughed then grabbed my hand again. "Come on" She dragged me into the main area of the club still bobbing and enjoying the beats. Once again starstruck I didn't have time to actually look at what was going on as Lena led me up a spiral staircase. "Is this also part of tonight?" I asked. Lena shook her head. "Nope, this is part of the original building." She told me. It was a stupid question I must admit, but I was trying to make idle conversation until we got to our destination.
"This whole upper floor is the rooms, the downstairs area is dancing, drinking and for those who like to...well...Public display is a thing" I listened to her speak as she lead me to the door at the end of the hallway. Public display? Did she mean having s*x in front of people? I shook that thought from my head. No...never going to happen. The nearest to public display I get is my book being published.
The dimly lit hallway with fixtures against the wall fitted the atmosphere of what I would think Darkness was supposed to be. Lena let go of my hand and gave a small bounce placing her hands behind her back. "You seem more excited about this than me right now." I told her. Deep down inside of me, the excitement did take flight. But that voice kept bugging me. "I'm just excited to see you do something for yourself again" She turned back to the door and knocked. When the door finally opened wide revealing Horatio in dark jeans and a button-down black shirt, I took a step back not saying a word. "Alice, Lena. Welcome" Horatio greeted us as he stood to the side. Lena motioned for me to go inside and I finally got my feet to work. Gray walls with white tree decals all around the room. A Queen-sized bed was centered and against one of the walls. Different gadgets were lined onto a table and an x shaped wood structure was leaning against another wall. The door closed behind us blocking out the music from outside. Soundproof rooms. Should have expected that. I turned around seeing Lena and Horatio have a moment. The embrace was sweet, the kiss...I turned my head and learned my throat. "I would say get a room, but I figure this is it" Lena laughed and I heard her step away from Horatio. "Why don't you go and call Jekyll. He's up in his room. And please remind him to bring his mask." Lena nodded, curtsied then kissed him on the cheek before heading out the door letting in a bit of music. When it grew quiet again I looked up and into Horatio's eyes. "Nervous?" he asked stepping past me. "Is it that obvious" I chuckled. "You don't have to worry. Jekyll won't do anything unless you both agree to it. Consent Alice. It's always about consent"

A knock at my door had me turn around the moment i smelled Lena's perfume. The subtle smell of the ocean and sand reminded me of going home. The big city was great. But Bear Valley carried a special place in my heart. My brothers would kill me if they knew about my hobbies. The door opened bringing in a very base-like sound of the music playing downstairs. Not really my taste, but it worked for those dancing and doing the dirty. "Horatio wanted me to come and call you" Lena told me as she leaned in the door. Dressed in a very black dress with a very high slit, her hair curled she smiled at me. "You're going to love her" My beast was already walking about. he wanted to meet the woman just as much as I wanted to. "With the way Horatio and you have been talking about her, I have no worries about it." She stood from the frame and pointed to the mask that was laying on the bed. The porcelain rabbit mask looked like something from BioShock. "Don't forget the mask" Lena reminded playfully. "Like I could forget" I mumbled picking it up from the bed. "What was that?" I placed the mask on my face "Nothing" I walked to her and motioned with my hand. She nodded knowing the gestures already. Horatio hasn't even known her that long and she already knew everything. I was happy for him, finding his mate. Wolves mate for life. I just hope when he does eventually tell her, that she won't run for the hills. We walked down the hall and I could already smell the cherry blossom and lilac from inside the room. f**k it smelled good. 'Not as good as when you get her aroused' my bear told me. I felt a twitch in my c**k, but reminded myself that this wasn't just a normal night. Not a normal consent. When Lena opened the door to Horatio's room and my eyes met hers I knew she was in trouble, because I was going to ravish her until the only words coming from that amazing mouth were mine.
Alice
Consent...That made me a little at ease. I took a deep breath as I looked around the room once more, trying not to make direct eye contact with him. When the door opened once more, the sounds from outside seem to have grown to a soft melody. I looked to the door and time seemed to stand still. Walking in behind Lena was a spitting image of the man I wrote about. His black hair was spiked and neat. His white collar shirt was rolled up at his sleeves showing a few tattoos. His piercing green eyes were hidden behind the mask. He walked towards me taking off the rabbit mask so I could see his face in all its magnificent glory. His eyes locked with mine and time slowed down. Something shifted in the room and definitely inside of me. The fear and nervousness disappeared and were replaced with awe. The melody came to an end, and I swallowed slightly. "Alice, this is Jekyll" Horatio introduced. "It's a pleasure to meet you Alice" His smooth whiskey voice spoke. "The pleasure is all mine" His smile brightened "Oh it sure will be and more" I was starstruck as he took my hand in his and kissed my hand. "Have fun you two" Lena chirped, bringing the two of us out of the small little world we had for a few moments. Jekyll came and stood next to me and nodded at Horatio. "Until later" He led me out of the room keeping my fingers intertwined with his. He placed the mask back on his face and walked us in the opposite direction. He took out a key card from his shirt pocket and held it to the key card reader. A small cling was heard and he leaned towards me opening the door. He smelled of oak and honey. A fresh smell of shaving cream and cologne just made me get lost in it. I looked up at him again, my heart skipping a beat his eyes again locking with mine again. "Shall we?" With a nod, I walked into the room and heard the door close behind us. I felt his presence behind me before his hands moved from my bare shoulders slowly over my back until he was met with the start of the corset; leaving small kisses where his fingers lingered. I closed my eyes as his touch made small little butterflies go down my stomach and down to start making me aroused.
Feeling him lean in for a moment before stepping back, the emptiness now present. I wasn't sure what to do if I wanted to do would make to forward. He stepped past me and walked to the whiskey cabinet and took out two glasses. Walking to the long table with all the whips, chains, and even the small bullets. I touched one of the whips the leather felt cold against my fingertips. A hand with a whiskey glass appeared on my right and I slowly took it from him. Turning around to see him stand right in front of me, I lifted the glass to my lips. "Have you ever been flogged?"
I shook my head before I took a small sip of the strong and very expensive whiskey. Didn't Horatio or Lena tell him? "N-no" I held the glass close as I saw his eyes cloud up. That was a no...they didn't tell him. Should I make a run for it while I still could? "What about f**k somebody?" His eyebrow lifted, and again I shook my head. "I-no" I told him again in a stutter. He turned away a disappointed look now in his eyes and in his expression, he walked to the full-length mirror and stared into it not saying a word. Shit
