Resentment and dejection swelled inside me. This is my first time to see Adele, Ruby, and Willow (live) after the incident in Venice. I had three years of simmering anger and seeing them laughing and enjoying life didn't sit well with me. Not after what they did to me.

Why would Duke get them here to have a good time?

I was not sure what my expression was, but it was probably not good because Duke stood up and cupped my cheeks, forcing me to look at him.

"Are you OK?", he asked with concern obvious in his voice.

"I assume that you didn't bring them here to enjoy the evening.", I said stiffly, and Duke smirked. I hoped that he will explain the current situation, but he didn't, so I continued talking, "I thought this is an exclusive club. Considering their current standing, they can't be guests. Are they escorts?"

Duke shook his head. "I sent an invitation to Adele, making it look like it came from Magda."

"Magda is in Sweden."

"They don't know that.", Duke said smugly.

I paused while thinking about what Duke said. "OK. You got those three here and made them think that Magda invited them. Then what?"

"They spiked your drink and left you with strangers. You said that you want them to experience the same hell.", Duke reminded me.

Sure, maybe their drinks are spiked, but even if they get naked and run around, they won't stand out much compared to those scarcely dressed women on the stage. Where is the catch?

"Those guys with them are handsome and they seem to be enjoying. How is that a punishment?"

Duke cocked an eyebrow at me. "You think they are handsome?"

I realized he was jealous. I couldn't believe that he made this about himself!

"Yes!", I exclaimed. "They are handsome. But not as much as you are."

He grinned and I pinched his cheeks harshly.

"You better tell me that sometime tonight those three will suffer.", I demanded.

"Can't you be patient?", he asked while prying my fingers from his face.

"For how long?"

"It won't be long…", he said in a singing voice and nudged me to move toward the sofa.

There was a bottle of wine, and he poured us a glass each.

"Cheers, love…"

I accepted the glass and clinked it with his before bringing it to my lips.

Watching Adele, Willow, and Ruby flirt with three eye-candies didn't do much for my mood, and I was not interested in the strippers below either.

Duke was enigmatic. I could see that he had plenty of things on his mind, but he was not willing to talk about it. He enjoyed the suspense and mystery he created.

Maybe I would enjoy it as well if this was not a shady place that made me uncomfortable.

I remembered that Tilda said how there might be some things in the dresser we could use. Driven by my curiosity, I stood up and went to check what's in the drawers. It might give me an idea about what kind of a place this is.

My eyes nearly bulged out when I opened the top drawer. Lubricants, dildos of different sizes and colors, nipple clamps, leather whip, and a blindfold. I pushed the drawer to close and opened the second one. Handcuffs, butt plugs, and some leather straps and ropes I could imagine are for bondage.

I didn't feel like opening the remaining drawers.

I never used any of these, but I did my research and I know what they are. Some of these belong in a dungeon, for torturing prisoners.

"Duke?", I called reluctantly.

"Hmm?" He hummed in response, and I didn't need to look at him to know that he was smiling.

"What kind of a place is this, exactly?"

I turned toward him to see him look at me with a mix of curiosity and apprehension.

"You said you want to try different things. I'm not saying we need to use these, but we could, if you are interested."

More than those sex toys I just saw, I was curious about one thing.

"How many times have you been here before?"

It took him a moment to realize where I'm going with this.

"What? No." He lifted his hands defensively and started talking so quickly that I barely understood what he was saying, "It's my first time here. You need to believe me. I know a guy who runs this place, and you wanted to get back at those three so I thought that we can mix business and pleasure. If you want to."

I was not sure what to think about this.

There was too much information for me to process. I hugged myself, seeking comfort.

Even if this is Duke's first time here, is he into these things?

Yes, the sex is great, but we just started… correction. I just started.

Was he already bored of me, and he needs to use these gadgets to spice things up? I was so naïve thinking that sexy lingerie will be sufficient.

Does he want us to get naked in this place where others can see us? If there is a camera in the room where Adele, Ruby, and Willow are, then there is probably a camera here also.

"Hey, hey…", Duke's voice pulled me out of my stupor, and I realized that he was standing in front of me. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable. Talk to me, Serina. Please."

"I… I…", I stuttered, unsure what to say, and my eyes darted toward the dresser.

Duke opened the top drawer, and his eyebrows shoot up. Then he opened the second one, and the third one before turning to me.

"I assume you are intimidated by all these."

I nodded faintly and he was back to stand in front of me, but this time he engulfed me in his hug.

He let out a shaky breath. "To be honest, I have no idea how to use most of those. But I hope that we get to try them out together. One day."

"Are you into those things?"

Duke shrugged. "I don't know. But I know that I want to try everything. With you. In the worst case, we don't like it, and we don't use it again."

I hated how he acted like this is a totally normal thing and I wondered if he enjoys putting me in these uncomfortable situations.

I've got an idea.

I wiggled out of his embrace and reached for the top drawer.

I got the largest dildo and I really hoped that it's brand new, or that at least they sanitized it thoroughly.

The dildo was thick and more than 30cm long and Duke frowned when he saw me inspecting the suction cup that was at the base.

Why is there a suction cup?

"What are you doing?", Duke asked and I did my best to keep my poker face on.

"You said that we should try everything.", I responded. "I decided that we try with this one first. Tonight. I will let you pick the lubricant. Pull your pants down and bend."

Duke's eyes widened in horror. "You are kidding, right?"
