“How are you feeling?” she asked.
Ryan snorted. “Like all my bones have turned to Jell-O.”
She gave him a knowing grin. “Relax up here for a bit. I’m going to go downstairs and check on Brandon and Ali’s progress. If you need anything before I get back, just holler.”
When she moved to stand, he placed a hand on her arm, stopping her. Katrina met his gaze.
“Don’t you want me to take care of you?”
While she never allowed her play partners to penetrate her, she did occasionally have them preform oral favors. Ryan was a huge fan of cunnilingus, and he had a very talented tongue. As tempted as she was to take him up on his offer, she had a few things she needed to do before the club opened at seven o’clock. Katrina knew if she gave in and let him pleasure her, one orgasm by Ryan’s talented mouth wouldn’t be enough.
“Not today. I have some work to do.” She placed his hand back in his lap and headed toward the door. “Take your time.”
Once she was outside the room, Katrina made a beeline for the stairs. As she descended, Brandon waved her over. “Mr. Monroe called while you were upstairs. I told him you were busy and would have to call him back.”
Peter Monroe was the private investigator she used for the club. All members had to pass a background check as well as a medical exam. You could say it was overkill, but most of her members appreciated the care she took with both their privacy and their safety. Even so, the one mistake she’d made in that department plagued her regularly. She’d vowed never to let someone slip through the cracks again. “Thanks. Everything all right down here?”
“We’re good. Ali is almost finished cleaning the main floor. Should I send her upstairs or wait a while?” Brandon asked.
“Have her wait fifteen minutes and then come on up. We should be finished by then.”
“Will do.”
As she started back toward the stairs, Brandon’s voice stopped her. “By the way, you missed a spot.” He had a smirk on his face, and he was looking in the direction of her leg.
Sure enough, on the inside of her thigh was a small amount of Ryan’s cum. She grabbed a paper towel from the bar, dipped it in some water Brandon had sitting close by, and removed the evidence of her afternoon adventures. “Happy?”
Brandon chuckled. “I think the better question would be, are you happy? You’ve obviously just had more fun than I have.”
She gave him a wink. “True. Speaking of which . . . I need to get back upstairs.”
He nodded. “Tell Ryan to stop by when he’s done. I wanted to ask him something.”
“Sure.”

About the Author
Sherri picked up her first romance novel when she was twelve and immediately she was hooked. She would stay up reading long after everyone else in her house had gone to bed, needing to see the hero and heroine get their happily ever after. But Sherri never imagined becoming an author.
At the age of thirty, all that changed. After getting frustrated with the direction a television show was taking two of its characters, Sherri decided to try her hand at writing an alternative ending to give the characters the happy ending they deserved.
Since then, writing has become a creative outlet that allows her to explore a wide range of emotions, while having fun taking her characters through all the twists and turns she can create.
