Chapter 3: Warehouse District

~Desire~

After leaving the restaurant, she drove home with music playing and Flambé in her thoughts. She did have an appointment at 8 that night. She couldn't tell anyone anything more about it than that.

She arrived at her Brownstone home in Brooklyn and started to get ready. She did a brown sugar scrub bath and shaved. 'Sir' needed her silky and smooth for her treatments. She couldn't let anyone in her business life know she required the services of her BDS&M club. First, it would be a conflict of interest, second people always assumed the worse, and last but not least technically she's still a virgin.

She put her hair up in a high bun. 'Sir' would take it down himself. It's the only intimacy he ever showed. She used a light lotion to keep her skin moisturized. She pulled out her lingerie and mask, her anonymity was very important. She slipped into her thigh high stocking adjusted her garters and clipped them in place. Her 6 inch black stiletto heals finished her ensemble. She only wore her mask until she arrived at the private room.

Flambé intruded her thoughts again. She had a feeling she shouldn't go tonight. But she needed this time. She felt she couldn't function without the service 'Sir' provided.

She sat in her living room waiting for the town car she ordered. She couldn't be seen driving her own car. Her phone rang. She picked up. Her driver was outside.

She threw on her coat to cover her body and walked out with the mask in her pocket. On the 10 minute drive, she slipped the mask over her face. When the driver stopped outside she stepped out and entered the building.

~Marc~

Well I've been in position on the roof across from the soon to be Luna's house for a few hours. I hope this works out, a grumpy Alpha is not a happy pack. She didn't realize I was following her. Or that my keen shifter eye sight would see her cover her face with a mask. I pulled out my phone and dialed the Alpha we are too far away to mind link. "Alpha she's on her way to the warehouse district. She's wearing a pink mask and a tan trench coat. I'll wait outside Alpha." He always was a man of few words. I jumped down off the roof and headed to my car.

~Flambé~

Flambé walked around the area of the warehouse. Some of the rooms interested and excited him. It was only because he pictured Desire in every room. Terrance was an excellent guide, he was very informative. He said he had an 8 o'clock appointment. But he also told Flambé that he could not watch 'the scene'. In every special room, there were large black cabinets. Flambé opened 1 and looked inside. The package stated it was a medium butt plug. There were all manner of devices inside the cabinet. At that moment his phone rang. He replaced the package and looked at his screen. "Marc. I'm in the warehouse district. What's she wearing? Ok stay outside and keep an eye out. You don't have to come in and I'll treat you to one of these clubs soon." I looked over at Terrance.

"Ok if my instincts are right and they usually are, your 8 o'clock appointment usually wears a pink mask. Am I right?" Terrance looked very uncomfortable.

"She wants to keep her anonymity. We keep our clients secrets."

"Ok Terrance I'm sure you already know I'm a wolf shifter, just like I know you're a Tiger. The woman in the pink mask is my mate. So first, I need to know if you've had s*x with her. Second, I have a plan, things are changing tonight."

"No I've never physically had s*x with her. I have a mate. Toys have been used. She likes to get tied up, spanked, and she likes sensory deprivation."

"Even better. How much do you usually charge for her time slot?"

"$1500."

"Ok here's $8000. You're going to set her up for sensory deprivation, then I'm going to take over when she's tied up. Just leave her hearing alone. Deal?"

"Listen, I know she's your mate and I would want to stop someone from touching Mary as well, but this whole thing is built on trust. I've been working with this woman for 3 years. She needs to be made aware of your presence. She knows about shifters, we've talked about it. Everything about being a shifter. Especially mates because of the s*x detail. I'll set her up and stay to educate you on how this all works. Knots, flogging, toys and everything. If not, you'll end up hurting her."

"Fine." Flambé growled. He didn't want any interference with his mate. But the possibility of hurting her was unimaginable.

"This is not s****l for me Mr. Boucher. It's a job. I am a professional."

Flambé shook himself. "I apologize."

"No. I totally get it. If it was my mate, I don't think anyone would survive. I barely touch her with my hands. It's time. Let me meet with her. I'll talk to her first. I won't break the trust of my client Mr. Boucher. She'll decide."

Flambé took a deep breath and sighed. "Fine."

Terrance left the room and told Flambé where to wait. He paced the room while he waited. His perfect innocent girl. How did she get into this? He wondered.

~Desire~

Desire walked into the reception area and waited. She knew 'Sir' would be there any minute to take her to her usual room. Terrance walked in looking conflicted. "Sub, we need to talk in the conference room first."

"Yes Sir."

"Terrance today please. It has been a trying day. I'll only say your name in private." They reached the conference room and he closed the door. She sat in a chair facing him. "Desire, do you know someone named Flambé Boucher?"

She gasped. "Yes Terrance. Why?"

"He knows you're here. Not from me. You know what our contract states. I'll always go by what it says. I still haven't even said your name. But he knew your mask, instincts led him to know I'm your Dom. Before we proceed, I think you should talk to him here. He has important information I don't feel comfortable telling you. It's just not my place."

"How did he know?"

"I don't know. You should ask him." She nodded. "I'll go get him."

Within a minute they were back. Terrance only opened the door and closed it without coming in. Flambé looked more comfortable in his light blue jeans and long sleeve shirt. His hands were in his pockets. "Can you take off the mask Desire, so I can talk to you?"

"How did you know it was me?"

"Can I start at the beginning first? Then all of your questions will be answered."

"Ok. But make it quick please. He explained everything as quickly as possible. She didn't interrupt but when she found out she was followed, her face changed. She still didn't speak, she waited.

"You're my mate Desire and I can't picture another man touching you, getting those reactions, owning a part of you. I can't."

"Ok." She giggled and scoffed a little. "First, why would you have someone following me?"

"Protection. Especially after this afternoon, you can't blame me. I would literally die if anything happened to you."

"And you want to go in the room with Terrance and me?"

"I don't just want to go in the room Desire. I want to learn how to handle your wants and needs by myself. Whatever else happens in there is up to you, but I can't have Terrance doing this anymore."

"I don't understand all of this. Can you bring Terrance in? He explains in layman terms and I understand that better. Please?"

Even the fact that she asked for another man's opinions and explanations hurt and infuriated Flambé to no end. "He said something about a contract and that he would be back." He said in a gruff voice. Just then, a knock came from the door. Desire opened it.

"Terrance. I need help. Maybe you can explain all this to me better."

"What's your question Desire?" Terrance asked.

"Ok so we discussed mate's, right? Because of Mary when you found her." He nodded. "Why does he have to take over as my Dom? You've done it for years."

"First, Desire do you want Flambé to kill me?"

"No of course not. But why would he?"

"When we find that one person Desire, she becomes everything to us. All of your wants, needs, and desires became his priority. And no, there is no way in hell he would let someone else take care of it. If you paid rent, electric, gas, cable, internet and a car note, trust me it's all paid."

"So what you're telling me I'm the most important thing in the world to him?"

"Yes. From what Mary says, the level of adoration is so intense a man would have to kill himself just to prove that he was as serious and dedicated to that same person." She looked at Flambé then.

"And this is how you feel about me?"

"Definitely." He said with no hesitation.

"Listen, I brought in a new Sub/Dom contract that you two should fill out. It'll help in long run." Terrance said dropping the package on the table. "Desire, I advise you go first."

"Why?" She looked at him horror struck.

"Because he will agree with everything you want. There's just somethings he and I need to discuss while you do. And remember to be completely honest. Do not take things out because you're embarrassed. It's a relationship BUT he is also going to be your Dom. Flambé let me talk to you in the other room."

They walked out and left her with the paperwork.

~Flambé~

They entered the same room Flambé waited in. Terrance sat in a chair and offered another to Flambé. "On this contract there are 4 categories. What she likes, what she's willing to try, and soft and hard limits."

"The only things I understood were the things she likes and things she wants to try. What are soft and hard limits?"

"Soft limits are basically things she doesn't feel ready for but eventually a little push will get her to do it and hard limits mean she will not, under any circumstances do it."

"Ok. So how will I know when to give her this little push? I've never been in a relationship with any of these details in them. It's usually just s*x. I mean not plain s*x, but not this either."

"I understand. Trust me, when I went to college and needed a way to pay for my apartment and books, I never thought this was the answer. But I met some people who ran a club, they hired me as a bartender. When the owners, managers, and I started to get propositions from the biggest clients, the owners asked if I wanted to be trained as a Dom. It was a big decision. Especially with our strength. But I looked at the money and couldn't turn it down. About a year more and I'll retire my whip and start my own business."

"What kind of business?"

"Private and public security. I already have people I'm vetting and training for the positions."

"You help me through this and I'll finance your business right now. I know your mate can't feel good about your job."

"No she doesn't. I'll take you up on that and help you through the whole process. Oh by the way, I hope you're in perfect shape. This is a workout. For you and her. Desire goes to the gym five times a week to make sure her body can take the rigors of her lifestyle."

"I do about the same. I look slim but I'm an Alpha, I have a lot of hidden strength."

Terrance nodded and stood up. "Desire should be finished by now. Now you and I go over this together, so I can explain things to you as we go. Oh, there is something I should bring up. Collaring."

"Collaring? Please tell me it's not what I think it is."

"A collar." Flambé nodded. "It is but there are day wear collars that look more like jewelry. We'll setup a meeting with someone who will get what you want. And before the argument comes. Let me say it like this. Is she yours and yours alone? Are you willing to share her with another Dom?"

"Yes she is MINE." He growled. " and hell NO I won't share her."

"Then yes a collar. Call it whatever you want but when you present it to her, tell her the significance. They walked into the other room quietly.

Terrance picked up the completed contract in front of Desire and started to go over the details with Flambé. Desire was flaming red by this point. He kept looking at her every few seconds. She didn't know it was her blush and the smell of her arousal that kept making him look at her. "Desire did you forget something?" Terrance asked with a raised eyebrow.

"I don't think so 'Sir'." She understood and knew that look. She feigned innocence. Terrance whispered in Flambé's ear, too low for her to hear.

"All of the anal play is marked hard limit but it's not. Not for her." He whispered.

"What did Terrance tell you about this contract, as far as your answers Desire?" Flambé questioned sternly.

"He told me to answer honestly." She said.

"Did you do that?"

"No."

"Fix it now." He said handing her the page.

"I really didn't lie. With Terrance it was just toys, buy with you…"

"With me? Continue that thought." Flambé said and she turned even more red.

"Ok let's start here. What would I call you during scenes and situations?"

"What would you feel comfortable with?" He crossed his legs. It automatically adjusted his member. This was getting him as hard as steel and he didn't expect that.

"Is it long term?"

"Lifelong. Oh and at some point I'll have to mark you as mine once."

"Mark me?" She gulped audibly.

Terrance spoke up then. "The mate's mark Desire. Remember I told you about scratching Mary? I think it's a bite with wolves. Am I right?"

"Yes a bite between your shoulder and neck. Right on the curve. Now back to what you'll call me in bedroom situations."

"Master would be lifelong." She gulped again. "Master, if I have to be honest, I am still a virgin everywhere. I don't know about your size but I wouldn't expect you to be as small as the toys I use."

He stopped filling out the contract and looked at Terrance in shock. He just nodded to his expression. He readjusted himself with his hand this time. This is so uncomfortable. "I understand your hesitation Desire. It's something we can work up to. Just let me finish this contract. He finished looked it over again and signed it. "This has taken longer than I expected and I have a pack meeting in 20 minutes. Sh*t!!! Desire come with me please and we'll handle your needs right after. Terrance here's the address, please bring or buy whatever I need."

"Ok Flambé I will. There's a problem though."

"What is it?"

"I'm going to step out. Have her open her coat for you." He walked out.

Once the door closed he spoke in a low husky tone. "Stand up and open your coat Desire."

"Yes Master." She shook as she complied. Her coat landed on the chair. Flambé just stood there. His eyes glowed a golden color and caressed every curve of her skin.

"Turn around Desire." She turned so he could see her back. "Damn Desire. Hold on. Stay quiet for a minute. He took out his phone. "Face me Desire. Hey Marc I need you to get in touch with Jean and reschedule the pack meeting until tomorrow night. Is it an emergency? Yes I would say it is. No I don't need backup. Just make it tomorrow night. I should be available then. Desire? Are you available tomorrow night at 9?"

"Yes."

"Tomorrow at 9. I have to go." His gaze was still caressing her body with intensity. "Put your coat back on for now. We have to take this somewhere else. Preferably a room with a lock. She replaced her coat. "Terrance? I need a room."

"12 is her favorite. We could go now. There are 6 rooms that are the same. If 12 is occupied we should find a similar 1. I just need to stop by the storage 1st. You'll see why. They walked a few doors down. Terrance grabbed 2 black duffel bags. He grabbed rope and leather straps first and dropped them in 1 bag. "That's for now." He then continued grabbing cuffs, a long bar with cuffs attached on each end, more rope, and other strange things he dropped in the other black duffel bag.

"How much does all of that cost?"

"About $600 worth of equipment. I'll go pay for this a little later." They walked out of the storage room and Terrance locked it. They then proceeded to room 12. It was still free. Flambé opened the door and looked inside. There was furniture here he didn't recognize.

He pulled Desire in behind him. And sat down with her standing. He made her look him in the eye with a finger under her chin. "What do you want Desire?" He asked.

Terrance started to talk but Flambé held up his hand and stared at her. She didn't answer right away. She looked deep in thought. "Do you want to whisper it in my ear? You're blushing again and while I enjoy seeing it, I won't intentionally embarrass you." She nodded.

"Yes Master."

"Come and tell me then." His voice sounding deeper and huskier.

She walked over and whispered sweetly in his ear. "Really?" He whispered. "Ok. Ok. Terrance I need you to leave. Can you go to that address and start setting things up. Don't worry. I'm not doing anything that will hurt her."

"Ok Flambé no ropes or anything?"

"No. Nothing." Terrance turned and walked out locking the door behind him. "All you've ever used was toys. And no one else has touched you like that?"

"That's correct Master."

"Do you know what that means, Desire? I get to be your first. I am beyond honored, privileged, and ecstatic, just to let you know. You are giving me the greatest present ever." He stood up and bent over to whisper in her ear. "And I get to unwrap you." He loosened the belt to her trench coat. He stared in her eyes while unbuttoned the coat and slid it off of her shoulders. She shook the whole time.
