The club always lured me, but I never had the guts to take a ride up to visit it. Tonight, was definitely going to be an experience. Loud music poured out from inside what looked to outsiders as an abandoned warehouse. Drunk bikers came out of a small door on the side, you could barely make it out along the dark brick wall. They swayed and laughed as they stepped out into the cool night air. I gingerly got off my bike and removed my helmet. As my brunette locks fell across my back I got the perpetual cat calls from a group of men across the street. I shook my head and made my way into Ravenous.
The man at the door was huge, at least six two or taller, and he had these powerful arms that would intimidate any man. And here I was, all five foot four curves, meeting his glare and eyeing him up and down.
“Name?”
“Gabriela Cristiano. Wolf Stone is expecting me.”
He curved up an eyebrow and let his eyes slowly roam down my body. I placed my hand on my hip and let the LAPD badge shine as his gaze dropped from my breasts to the shiny gold shield.
“Right this way.” Immediately he let me through the door and into the raunchiest scenario I’d ever experienced. The nude girls up on the stage were nothing new, it was the scenes below the stage, hidden in so many dark corners, where men were openly being satisfied orally and physically in every aspect you could think of. That’s what had my jaw dropping.
“This way,” the large man smirked at me as he signaled for me to follow him. Being a private establishment I couldn’t do anything to them and they damn well knew it.
I was so taken aback, and so busy ogling the scenes before me, that I wasn’t watching where I was going. I gaped at the corner of the bar where two women were on their knees satisfying one helluva green eyed god. As I stared at them I stumbled, and suddenly I was flying over a chair. A set of powerful hand wrapped themselves around my waist and flipping me around he held me tightly. I gasped at how easily he’d perched me onto his lap. I was about to tell him to keep his hands to himself when I turned my face only to be met with his hypnotizing dark gaze.
“Careful sweetheart,” he smiled at me and his deep rumble nearly had me cumming for him right on the spot. My pussy throbbed, wondering what it would be like to be taken back to one of those shadowed corners by this specific man, the music pounding around us, hiding my screams of ecstasy and grunts of dirty words being spilled out of his plush lips.
My lips parted and I felt heat rush up my cheeks. “Hi.”
His eyes traced my eyebrows, my cheekbones and as they landed on my lips I couldn’t help but lick them. I heard a deep rumble emanate from his chest and I shivered.
“Hi,” he whispered huskily.
“Hey D, man! Let her go! She’s here to see Wolf!”
His eyes kept lingering on my lips as his hold tightened on my hips. “You here to see the Prez?”
“Mmhmm,” I breathed, loving his hands on me.
“You needing help, Sweetheart?”
His eyes met mine in a fiercely heated look and I nodded. “You could say that.”
He growled and his hands squeezed my waist making me moan for him. He was like a powerful, irresistible magnet and I felt myself being pulled down towards his mouth.
“I could definitely help a kitten like you,” his whisper made me shudder.
Just as our lips were about to touch, I was suddenly being hauled off his lap by the big brute who had been my guide.
“Let’s go lady, I ain’t got all night.”
The man got up and glared at the bouncer. “Take your hands off her Poe. Now.”
The man immediately let me go at the menacing rumble the man gave out. “Sorry, D. Didn’t know you knew her. Thought she was one of the...”
“Enough! Get back to the door. I’ll take her.”
“Yeah, sure. No prob.”
The man named Poe walked off and I was left standing in front of a six foot two powerhouse. This man did things to my insides that I liked, that I wanted. He was far from being gorgeous, he was better. He was dirty-and not in the unkempt way, in the sinful way. Dark rugged looks, a shadow of a beard, dark eyes and a powerful built that had me wanting to wrap my legs around him. I felt small standing in front of his broad frame, but I liked it. I didn’t feel unnerved, I felt...protected. And I felt a yearning for whatever sinful acts he wanted to give to me, a yearning I had never felt before.
“Why do you need to see Wolf?”
His change from a husky whisper to that of a cautious deep rumble had my insides purring. “Who are you?”
“I ask the questions around here,Sweetheart.”
“Oh? Is that so?” My sarcasm coming out all soft and breathy.
He smirked and I held on to the back of the chair. What the hell is wrong with you Cristiano. Come on. He’s just a regular guy! Yeah, a guy with the most smoldering look and most delicious lips you’d ever seen. I stared down at his mouth and licked my lips. I had this urge to just lean up slightly and press my lips to his.
He chuckled. “Yeah, that’s so. What’s your name Beautiful? Give me your name and I’ll take you to Wolf.”
His tone was gentle, seductive. It ran through me like hot molten whiskey. “Gabriela. I work for the LAPD, Agent Burke’s friend.”
He looked me up and down and smiled. “You’re Detective Cristiano?”
His haughty tone had me coming back to reality. “Is something amusing to you?”
He shook his head. “No baby, I just...I imagined you differently is all.”
I frowned. “What, surprised I’m a woman?”
“Oh no, not surprised,” he shook his head and leaned in closer making me grip the chair. Even though I forced myself not to take a step back, I couldn’t help but inhale the soft woodsy, leathery scent of him. His after shave lotion made me dizzy with need. “Just intrigued. Your reputation precedes you Detective. I knew you were kickass, but no one ever mentioned how fucking sexy you were.”
I swallowed as his tone changed back to that husky rumble I craved. I didn’t want to feel this way, not with a stranger. Especially not in a place like Ravenous. So I did what I always did when putting up walls…I became a bitch.
“What? A woman can’t be both kick ass and sexy to you? I bet we’re only good up on that stage shaking our asses for you?”
He looked taken aback and raised his hands. “I was just trying to pay you a complim...”
“If we’re done here…Sir, I’d like to speak with the owner.”
He stood up straight, looming over me as he looked down and clenched his jaw. “Right this way ma’am. And it’s Diesel.”
“What?” I snapped at him.
He turned and leaned down to whisper in my ear. I gasped as his lips grazed my earlobe and my pussy clenched, waiting expectantly. “The name’s Diesel, Sweetheart.”
I swallowed and stared up at him as he winked and continued through the crowd to the far back wall. I’d read up on Diesel, but we couldn’t find much on him. He was a complete and utter puzzle and I had been completely drawn in by him when I read his profile. He was really good at hiding himself, I was barely able to get a good picture of him. But meeting this enigma face to face was even more tempting for me. He drew me in like a moth to a flame, and I wanted to feel his heat.
He told me to wait and I stared at his broad back and tight ass as he climbed up a few steps and dragged a velvet blue curtain back. He said a few words to whoever was inside and then came back down.
“They’re inside.”
“Thank you,” I walked passed him needing to be as far away as possible before I did something I’d regret later, but there was no helping the tingling sensation his hand was leaving on my arm as he stopped me.
His eyes were warm and magnetic as they stared down at me. “I didn’t mean any harm earlier. I was just surprised that such a beauty packed such a powerful punch. I am actually awed by you, Detective.”
I gaped at him and he traced his thumb along my bottom lip and leaned in. “I’ve also done my
research, Sweetheart.”
He winked and suddenly I was left standing alone. I felt a thrill run down my spine and as I looked back I caught his eyes on me as he leaned against the bar. He raised a glass at me and downed it, bluntly letting his eyes wander down my body. I took a deep breath and turned around. Slowly I made my way up the stairs feeling the heat of his eyes burning a hole in my leather jacket as I disappeared behind the curtain.
