Rose sighed. “Will there be any women vying for your attention?”
“A few subs will try to gain my attention. Don’t worry about them. I’ve got a plan that will let them all know who I belong to.”
“You belong to me?”
“Just as you belong to me, baby.”
In the few days since he’d taken her home, Rose had really flourished. He couldn’t believe how much she’d changed. Peter loved watching her grow, and he certainly loved watching her eat. He’d never take her food away from her. If he ever saw her parents again he didn’t know if he’d be able to keep his opinion to himself.
“I’ve got to get you to the club. You’ll start your training. I’m usually behind the bar, but just recently William has been getting Daisy to do it. You might have her for company. Anna usually watches the kids while it happens. We’ve all gotten quite close over the last few years.”
He felt her nod. “Daisy was telling me that you haven’t been to many barbeques or dinners or anything.”
Peter let out a sigh. “I hated the sympathy they’ve given me. Whenever Laura and Dean arrived they’d go quiet.” He shook his head. “It’s not going to happen anymore. I’ve got you.”
She smiled up at him. “And I’ve got you.”
The journey to the club was short. He took her in his car not wanting her to walk her first night. There were already several cars parked up outside the club. Peter knew it would only be a matter of time before the club became really popular. Not only was Control a BDSM club, but the main section was for anyone. People could come simply to party or dance.
Entering the main foyer he recognised several people from around Cape Falls. They all looked out of place but were trying their best to mingle.
Rose whistled by his side. “I never thought I’d see this,” she said.
Peter shrugged. He ignored the locals and went straight to the bar. Edward was standing behind the bar serving up a beer.
“Who would have thought Cape Falls has a curious and wicked side,” Edward said.
“Not me,” Peter said, taking a seat.
William appeared and took Rose away.
“You nervous about tonight?” Edward asked, drawing him out of his nerves.
Peter stared at his friend. “She’s going to do her shift here, and then I thought about taking her back to where the real action begins.”
“Bringing her to the BDSM club is a risky move. What if she doesn’t like it?”
Glancing at where Rose had gone, Peter turned his attention back to his best friend. “I’ve got to know how she handles it. First, I’ve got to see how she goes behind the bar.”
Edward nodded. “Your booth is free. I’d enjoy it while you can.”
Peter left the bar and headed toward his booth. Where he sat he got a clear sight of Rose as she came behind the bar. She was wearing an apron around her middle. He saw Edward teasing her. Rose kept blushing.
Peter chuckled when he saw her spill beer down her front, dropped a glass, and mixed tequila wrong.
“She’s going to be a nightmare to train,” William said, taking a seat.
“Get used to her. I’m not letting her go.” Peter couldn’t take his gaze away from her. She looked so adorable.
Edward was wiping his face from a fizzy bottle she’d opened.
He was surprised by the other man’s patience.
“Are you sure about this?” William asked. “It has only been a couple of days. You’ve been in love with Laura for a long time. You’re sure you’re not confusing the two?”
Peter smiled. “I’ve had a wakeup call. Rose is the woman for me. I love Laura and that will never change, but my love is nothing more than the love of a brother to a sister. Trust me, William. I’m completely over it.”
William nodded. “Then I’ve got everything ready for you later. The club will be closed, and the others will be here to witness it.” He glanced back at Rose. “If your woman can survive the night.”
