Synopsis
All Adam Kern was looking for when his best friend dragged him to the club Harte was some good dancing and a little flirting to distract him from his troubles. He never anticipated meeting the club owner, Jesse Harte, and having a whole new world of experiences opened up to him. On an impulse, Adam follows Jesse to the upper, kinkier floors of the club where an informative tour ends in a steamy scene that both men are looking forward to repeating. The attraction between the two is scorching and over the next few weeks their adventures into kinky sex are nothing short of daring.Adam loves the thrill of sex with Jesse but soon a gnawing fear sows doubt into his mind about the possibility of a relationship with the other man. Though he loves every moment he spends with Jesse, he fears what these sexual explorations may mean for him. Jesse is successful, an entrepreneur, and a well-known Dominant in the BDSM community, but Adam cannot see himself as a submissive. What sort of future could they have if he is unable to give his lover what he needs?

“We’re going to Harte.”
Ash said this as if Adam would know what
the hell he was talking about.
“Where?”
Ash waved the question away with a flick
of his wrist and an expression that clearly said it didn’t matter. “You’ll know
when we get there. Now, come on.” He linked their arms and half dragged Adam
out the door.
On the taxi ride to wherever they were
going, Adam tried to get more details, but all Ash would tell him was that
Harte was a local nightclub.
“You didn’t let me get dressed.”
“Why do you think I lent you that shirt
to begin with? You look fantastic. Trust me.”
The crowd outside the club wrapped
around the side of the building and back again. Thankfully, it wasn’t too cold
out, or they would have frozen solid before getting inside.
“Is this place always so crowded?” Adam
asked as they took their place at the end of the line.
“Packed like sardines,” Ash confirmed.
“Best place in the city for good drinks and dancing.”
A man in skintight leather pants and
what Adam guessed was a harness walked by. “Varied crowd,” he said.
Ash spotted the man and did that
wrist-flick thing again. “He’s headed around back for the upper floors.”
“The upper floors?”
“Yeah, the nightclub is only on the
first floor. It’s got three dance floors, each with their own bar, and a
backroom, which was most likely meant to be a bathroom but is usually otherwise
occupied. Upstairs is the kinky stuff. From what I hear, Harte has the best
dungeon in the city, and he’s known to be top-notch on safety. It’s pretty
well-known despite being members only up there. The entrance to the second
floor is in the back, though, because there’s a difference between
exhibitionism and indecent exposure.”
“Huh.” Adam had never been to a kink
club. Granted, they didn’t have plans to head upstairs, but this was the
closest he’d ever been to one.
Eventually, they made it inside. With
the beat of the music and the press of sweaty bodies grinding around him, it
was easy for Adam to be distracted from thoughts of the upper floors. It wasn’t
long before he’d lost Ash to the throng as well. His friend tended to sidle
toward the nearest hot guy before passing him up for the next one on the dance
floor. It gave him more exercise than the dancing itself. When he wanted a
break, he’d pop up next to Adam as if finding someone in a crowd was the
simplest thing to do.
Tonight, Ash’s method fit Adam’s mood.
He scanned the floor for someone to dance with. It didn’t take him long to find
what he was searching for.
The man was dancing alone and,
apparently, without a care in the world. He seemed lost to the music, his body
moving with enviable grace and confidence. He was lean with boyish good looks
and the kind of face that would still look thirty when he was fifty-five. His
light-brown hair was just long enough to be spiky, and though his clothes were
casual, he dressed stylishly.
When the dancer turned his head, he
caught Adam staring. A jolt ran through Adam, but he couldn’t look away. Even
from a distance, the man’s pale eyes had him trapped, and Adam found himself
moving through the crowd as if pulled by an invisible string. When he was close
enough, he reached for a seductively swaying hip. The touch of a hand on the
back of his neck encouraged him to move even closer.
They moved together for a while, sliding
their bodies against each other but in no hurry to make it anything more than
dancing. They simply let the pleasure of touch build on itself. The feel of his
partner’s body against his was electric.
Adam was about to ask if they should
find the “bathroom” when the man asked, “Care to go upstairs?”
Adam hesitated. “Isn’t it members only?”
He figured that was a simple way to change the subject without having to turn
the guy down.
“I can bring a guest if I want to.”
There went his easiest excuse. His
reluctance must have shown on his face because the man asked, “Not your thing?”
“Not really,” Adam admitted.
“Ah” was the only reply, but Adam heard
the disappointment in the word.
“Sorry.”
“It’s okay.”
Truthfully, Adam had never given kink
much thought. He’d heard about it, read a little online, but he’d never considered
putting what he’d read into practice.
