We dozed off and on together, lying on the couch in a naked tangle, Burgundy, me and the sub having all been satiated a number of times. There hadn’t been any formal introductions and I didn’t care. That’s how we did things at Casa Mañana—the “House of Tomorrow” in Burgundy’s native tongue.

Most of the time, the sex slaves that Burgundy and Jared brought home were passed among us and then let go while we searched for another fresh young thing. It’s not that we didn’t appreciate them, our treats. It’s that we knew if we copulated with them more than a few times, we risked getting attached. Each of us had learned the hard way not to trust our heart to someone who inevitably didn’t understand the strength of our bond. Since we loved our arrangement and wouldn’t jeopardize it, we’d agreed long ago not to become attached to anyone else, lest they disrupt what we had.

The sub snuggled closer to me, wrapping his big arms around my smallish frame. His face bored into my neck as he breathed me in deeply. When his tongue flicked out to lick my ear, there was a pulse between my legs. This wasn’t safe. I shook my head no against his.

“My name is Ryder Evans,” he whispered unbidden into my ear.

“Shh.”

Burgundy, having heard his transgression, stood up. “Time to go, sub.” She pointed to the door.

I wanted to know. But I couldn’t. I must be strong for our pack and so I looked away. He didn’t move, still staring at me. Burgundy threw his clothes at him.

“Dressed and gone in thirty seconds, or you won’t like the outcome.” Her voice was no longer creamy and sensual. It was hard and demanding. She didn’t play around. Hopefully he wouldn’t find out how serious she could be.

Ryder bent and picked up his clothing. I watched him from my peripheral vision as he quickly dressed and walked toward the door.

With one hand on the handle, he stopped. Burgundy’s eyes narrowed and she said, “Seven seconds.”

Turning the handle and walking out, he called over his shoulder, “Burgundy knows where to find me.” And the door closed.

I hadn’t realized I was holding my breath until the sigh escaped.

“What the hell was that?” I asked her.

“You tell me,” she responded as she walked back over to the couch and sat down next to me.

“I don’t know.” I shook my head, trying to clear my thoughts. “I thought it was just lust, but there was something more. Something deep and old and .
