“Nick, nice to see you tonight, I was hoping tonight was the night you would be bringing Alexandra to see us.” Turning to me, he extends his hand to me and I slowly place mine in his. As his eyes make their way over my body, he growls “Alexandra, you look absolutely lovely. Glad to see that your ankle is no worse for the wear, however those heels you have on might not make it so. Do be a good girl and take them off for me?”
Leaving my hand in his, I look instantly to Nicholas, and find a smile stretching wide on his face.
“Alexandra, don’t mind Shadow, he is just seeing if you will bend to his will and whims. He finds it quite the rush to have new subs be naughty for him by following his wishes, instead of their Doms by doing what another might ask of them.”
Drawing my hand from Shadows I quickly look around him to see the woman from Nicholas’s house those weeks ago. Peach walks up to us and drops to her knees as soon as she reaches Shadow.
“Peach, I was only speaking to Nick and his Alexandra,” stroking a hand over her head he goes on, “were you jealous?”
Not lifting her head from the ground, she doesn’t say a thing.
Raising his voice slightly he tugs on her hair gently drawing her eyes up to his, “Answer me, my Peach.”
“Yes, Papi I was.”
“Will you never learn? Maybe after the Pet is done with her show tonight, we will be able to take some of that fear outta you.”
Looking towards Nicholas, recalling some of the weird shit I saw on the internet, I whisper, “Pet?” Leaning closer to him, so that Shadow and Peach don’t hear I go on, “like that stuff I saw on the computer?”
“No, not that Alexandra. It seems that we have come on a good night and we are in for a real treat.” A questioning look from me is all he pauses for before going on, “The Dungeon’s Master and Sir have brought their Pet, Pearl out to play. She hasn’t been around much since the baby has she Shadow?”
“No, they don’t like sharing her with us very much anymore. She is a beauty to see though. When they top her and when she gets her claws into Ember, both are a fucking amazing sight to behold.” Looking to me he adds, “Pearl and you might get along nicely. You have lots of things in common from what I can tell. As long as you don’t rip each other’s hair out with some fucking drama.”
Looking towards him, I am sure the questions are radiating off of me.
“No offense meant, Alexandra. You are both strong independent woman that are coming to the lifestyle later than most. She will be able to guide you in your journey, if you two can get past any misgivings that you may find.” Pulling his subs face to his, he consumes her with a kiss, before addressing me again. “My Peach will take you back to the locker room and you can talk with her before coming to see the scene. If you’re lucky, Ember or Pearl will be in there as well, and free to talk.” Stepping towards me, I move closer to Nicholas as he adds, “That might help to squelch some of those fears I see running through that mind of yours, Alexandra. No one here will do anything to you that you do not want.” Pointing to Nicholas, he warns, “including him.”
I stand in shock at the threat that has just passed between the two men over me. Shadow clearly warning Nicholas off of me for some reason.
“Peach, stand up and take Alexandra to the locker room. Treat her as you would treat me, please. Answer her questions freely and honestly, if you are my good Peach, we will take a turn on the platform tonight. If Alexandra seems like her fears are subsided when you come back that is. You have thirty minutes to put her fears to rest, then you will return to me and we will watch the scene together.”
Seeing the light in her eyes as he says that, I know that one of my first questions will be about it, as she answers him quickly, “Yes Papi.”
Looking towards Nicholas, I see the light in his eyes, as he nods his head in the direction of a long hallway behind Shadow. “Go with Peach, Alexandra and please ask her any questions you have. She will do her best to put your fears aside, although I did think I had been doing that these last few weeks.”
Peach comes up to me, raises her eyes to me slowly before asking so sweetly, “Ma’am may I take your hand?”
“Um, yes.” Rolls off of my tongue as she steps closer and runs her hand down my arm interlacing her fingers in mine, before turning to head down the hallway. With only a brief look back, I catch Nicholas staring at my ass before his eyes reach mine and a lust-filled grin crosses his face.
The fight that I have been putting up against this attraction that still sizzles between us, I find harder and harder to fight. I know that he wants another chance and that he would do anything to get that, but I am still so unsure of what has happened between us, and during the time that we have been apart.
Walking down the hall with Peach, I hope that this night helps me to see the person that I am starting to feel like I am. I wonder if whatever it is that I will see tonight, will be one of my fantasies, or will turn me on as much as all the talk that Nicholas and I have been doing these last three weeks. I have had such a hard time trying to keep him at bay. The talks we have had, have gotten me so hot and bothered that I have masturbated thinking of them. Each time I touch myself I think of him, and hope that tonight I can keep my mind right and not give in to the temptation.
Chapter 26
Nick
Seeing how nervous she was when talking with Shadow, I think maybe I have not done a good enough job trying to get her ready for her visit tonight. Then when I see her heading down the hall with Peach, I know that I was wrong. Her fears seem to have diminished quickly as she caught me checking out her ass. The smile I have longed to see on her face these last weeks is back in full swing as she puts more swing in her step down the hall.
Turning to Shadow I slug him on the arm, “What the fuck was that Ass?”
“You know that I am only the first one who is going to try that tonight, Nick. Those wide untrained eyes and that body are going to call to every Dom in this place, available or not. You should be glad that the boys are all here tonight and Gun has let them know you were coming, or you might be in trouble with that lovely lady.”
“What are you talking about, Shadow?”
“I let them know that you were bringing Alexandra tonight. They will each watch out for her as I would, like she was theirs, that is just the way they are. You are lucky that they have all taken to you as much as I have. We haven’t taken to an outsider, in fuck, probably never.”
Laughing, I answer him quickly, “Well, isn’t that fucking nice.”
Clapping me on the back, Shadow says, “Go get yourself a drink. You are surely going to need it tonight, I am guessing that your Alexandra has not backed down from the friends status that she has put on your relationship in the days since we have spoke.”
“Fuck you Shadow.” I get out as I start to walk away. The laughter coming from him as I head down the hall is boisterous to say the least. I head into the locker room throwing on my leathers and boots before making my way to the bar.
Finding an empty seat, I order a whiskey on the rocks and wait only moments until it is slid over the bar to me. Taking a sip, I turn to take in the club and notice that there is an abundance of people here tonight. The most I have ever seen in the almost eleven months that I have been coming here. Guessing that the large crowd has to do with the scene that is being set up, I hope that it is not too much for Alexandra.
As I continue to take in my surroundings I see Blaze and Tank heading towards me. Standing I shake hands with each in turn as I greet them.
“Nick, so nice of you to join us this evening. I grabbed Master Markus and we headed out here as soon as I saw you on the security camera, with who we could only guess was your Alexandra.” Looking around Tank asks, “Where is she? We would all like to get a look at this woman who has you so enthralled.”
“Shadow sent Peach into the locker room with her to try and calm her nerves a bit. I can’t say that I disliked the idea, until I realized that all the woman was probab
ly in there together. Does Pearl have speaking privileges tonight? It might be odd for Alexandra to be in there trying to find out about the lifestyle if she doesn’t.”
Markus grins as he answers, “Yes, she does Nick. She has been a very good Pet these last few weeks. She knows that her place is to comfort your Alexandra and to help her find her way.” Nodding his head as Doc and Country come up to join our group, he goes on “Good enough that we have even thought of letting her play with Ember tonight.”
Doc is quick to quash that suggestion though, “No she will not be playing with my wife tonight. Ember has been nothing but bratty these last couple of weeks, and probably would like nothing more than to play with her friend, so she will not. I whipped her ass good last night for leaving to visit her mom, without as much as a word yesterday.” After we all look at him questioningly, he goes on, “without a note, her phone, or a way for me to know where she had gone.” Understanding the fear, he must have felt not knowing again where his wife and children were. I was not the only one who understood his anger.
“Well, then we will have to find another way to reward our wife.” Tank smiles looking through the room, landing eyes on the stage which is loaded with toys a spanking bench and a St Andrews Cross. I see an exchange between him and Markus and am not sure at what they communicated.
“What about your Alexandra, Nick?” Markus asks while looking towards me.
Taking offence, I am quick to reply sharply, “My Alexandra does not want to be topped by your wife, Markus. And she surely wouldn’t want to scene with either of you.”
“Good to know, Nick, but that is not what I was asking. I was asking how your Alexandra was finding her introduction to the lifestyle.” Grinning a little wider he goes on, “what Shadow and Gun have told us must be true seeing how defensive you are about her.”
“What the fuck, you guys talk just as much as the women do,” is all I hear from Gun as he stops next to me. Slapping my back he tries to cool the mood. “Glad to see you could make it tonight, Nick. I am guessing from the way Sara, Ember, and Pearl ran off to the locker room earlier that you have finally brought your Alexandra tonight. Am I right?” Nodding my head in answer he goes on, “They have been waiting months to meet this woman that has you keeping yourself locked away from the available subs.”
“Well, there wish has finally come true. I brought her so she could get a sense of this place and the relationships that go on here.” Rubbing a hand through my hair, I shake my head going on, “I thought we were talking about your scene with your wife, not my Alexandra.” I say trying, unsuccessfully to change the subject.
“Our scene will play out as we wish it to, your Alexandra however, we would like to know more about. Especially seeing how taken our woman are with her after only a short amount of time.” Markus says nodding towards the locker room.
Turning, I see the women making their way towards the bar with Shadow in tow. Stopping as they reach the bar, all but Alexandra and Sara drop to their knees at their Masters feet. Looking towards Alexandra, I see nothing but wonderment and arousal in her eyes and know that she is feeling much more at ease being here.
Chapter 28
Alex
Walking into the locker room with Peach I am not sure what is about to happen. I have felt so at ease talking with Nicholas these past three weeks, making me horny as hell most of the time. He has been able to answer the majority of my questions, and even if he doesn’t know the answer he has always found it out for me. I am guessing from Shadow, Gun, or even Peach.
As Peach and I enter the locker room, I see a redhead standing in front of a full length mirror. She is wearing only a corset with a skirt that covers only most of her ass. From what I can see that ass is red with welts and marks covering both it and her thighs. Her head follows us through the door as we enter and a wide smile crosses her face, which follows us across the room to where we sit down. Sitting down I turn towards Peach before seeing movement outta the corner of my eye. I see a fuller figured woman, brown hair and eyes enter the room with a brunette.
The look of determination and superiority on the older lady has me questioning how she fits into this lifestyle. She looks around the locker room, pausing only briefly on the red head, before continuing towards us. “You are Nick’s Alexandra?” comes out from her lips as she stops directly in front of me and looks me up and down.
Looking up at this woman, with nothing but question in my eye, I answer as truthfully as I can. “I am not his, we are not together, and have not been for over a year. Why does everyone keep saying that shit to me?”
“Yes, well we have all gotten to know him in these last eleven months.” Looking towards Peach she adds with a smirk on her face, “Some better than others, right Peach?” Glancing back towards me, she goes on, “He is one of the most caring and considerate men that I have had the pleasure of knowing. After you let him go he fucking broke. From what I hear, he was drinking himself silly and fighting anything he could get his hands on. He had a hard time trying to find peace inside himself and it took him long months of patience and practice to get himself under control again. He did that with the help of this lifestyle.”
“What are you talking about let him go. He fucking lied to me about who he was. That is not something that is easily forgiven. He knew that I would pull away as soon as I found out and he still lied to me, for fucking months. Wait! Who the fuck does you think that you are to tell me about my life?” Feeling a soft hand come to rest on my arm, I look down to Peach- wide eyed and slowly shaking her head from side to side, silently trying to tell me to stop. “You may be a mother fucking hen to these girls, but you are not one to me. You need to keep your fucking nose out of my business.”
“Out of your business, the way I see it, Nick is nothing except my business. You have not been with him or even talked to him, until these last few weeks. I have been around, we have all been around to listen to him and make sure that his demons were stayed off. If you can’t see past what happened, maybe you need to leave this place and his life for good. He doesn’t need you in it if you are only going to string him along. You have nothing to do with his life, why are you even here?”
Looking at her blankly I think about what she is saying. That I have not been around and that Nicholas is no longer mine. The thought make my heart sink a little further.
He isn’t mine and I have no pull or say in anything to do with him. My head drops and the tears I thought were long since shed, begin to fall again.
Looking from me towards Peach’s hand still resting on my arm, then back to me, this woman takes a step back and drops her head slightly. Seeing her chest slowly rise and fall a few times, I hold my breath waiting for her next move. Rolling her neck, she raises her eyes back to me before beginning again.
“Alexandra, I didn’t mean any offence. I’m sorry that you took it that way, I truly am. We have all looked over Nick during these last long months, and were taken aback that he was finally bringing his Alexandra into The Dungeon. Watching him these last months, has made each of us take to him. We all care about what happens to him, and hope that no matter what it is- if it involves you or not, that he will be happy.”
“That is all I want as well.” Is all I can say as I look up to these women, who are so protective over my Nicholas. “Why do you feel as you do about Nicholas?”
“He has been coming in here to learn from the Doms as much as possible over the last couple of months. After Gun and Nick fell in together their bond is something that I didn’t think I would see from someone outside of the MC. Nick was able to find the structure and stability that your relationship upset in him. Anyone would be lucky to have a man like him in their life. You would be lucky to have such a man, such a Dom or Master in your life.”
Feeling the sincerity in her words, answering with the truth is all I can think to do. “I was not ready for the way I felt about Nicholas. It is only the second time that I have felt that in my life, shit, it is only the second perso
n who I fucked in my life. My husband of twenty plus years was the only other person that I have felt anything similar with, and it sure as fuck didn’t come in like the fucking wrecking ball with my husband, Shannon, like it did with Nicholas.” Seeing the care and concern cross her face, I cannot stop the words as they come rushing out.
“A few weeks after I found out who Nicholas really was, I thought I was pregnant for fucks sake. I was so happy to think that I would be bringing another baby into this world, especially one that was lucky enough to have Nicholas be his or her father.”
Dropping my head slightly the tears fall slowly down my cheek before I go on. “That was not the case though. The doctor told me that I was going through fucking menopause. FUCKING MENOPAUSE- can you believe that shit. I am barely forty fucking years old dating a twenty-seven-year-old and that was the biggest of my concerns.”
Rubbing a hand across my neck I feel the urge to keep talking, and don’t hesitate to do so. “One day passed into another and the hole building between Nicholas and I grew. He called or texted every day for fucks sake. I never listened too or read any of the messages though, I couldn’t bring myself to. The day that I finally went over to his house to talk with him, it had been three hundred sixty-five days.” Turning to the side, I look into Peach’s eyes before grabbing her hand and going on. “I saw the scene being played out between Peach and Shadow and turned tail and ran.”
Squeezing my hand, Peach smiles slightly at the memory and makes sure to know that she is there supporting me as her Master has asked of her.
“When we spoke of what had been going on in the year we were apart, Nicholas gave me letters that he wrote each day that we were apart. If the calls and texts were not enough, he brought me a bundle of letters/notes that he had written to me, each day. I have only glanced at the letters and know that I should read them, but it hurts so much. I know he is sorry for what happened between us, that he would do almost anything to take back the way that shit played out between us, but the fact is he lied. He knew exactly who I was, and how stressful a relationship between the two of us would be, yet he still decided, for the both of us, that we were going to be together.”
