Chapter 11
Every Rose Has
Its Thorn
W e pulled up to what I could only describe as a mansion in the middle of nowhere. The driveway up to the house was lined with trees, and once we arrived, there was a valet to take the car. I still had not figured out what Kiren did for a living, but I was starting to worry that I may not like it when I did learn.
"What is this place?" The grounds were immaculate. The house looked like one I had only ever seen in movies and magazines. It resembled one of those plantation homes with multiple floors and a large front porch with columns. Ferns were hanging at intervals between the pillars, and fairy lights gave the place a whimsical look.
"This, my friend, is a playroom for us tonight." So we walked up the two steps to the house, and the door was opened by a man in actual butlers attire.
"Are we in Gotham? Is this Bruce Wayne's mansion?" I asked as I leaned closer to Kiren's ear. He chuckled and smiled at me.
"Oh, you have never seen anything like this in a Batman movie, that is for sure."He led me through the door and into the entryway, which made me immediately think of the grand staircase in the titanic. The butler who opened the door took our coats, and another man who appeared to be a house staff member approached us.
"Good evening, sir. How would you like to proceed this evening?" Kiren looked at him and smiled.
"My friend with me is new to our events. So let's start her off slowly and begin on the lower levels, and we can approach the upper levels if we find it is needed." The gentleman nodded and motioned toward a door on our right.
"Please enjoy your evening, sir. And as always, please let us know whenever you require assistance."
"What are we going to do here?" I asked as we headed toward the door on the right.
"We are going to enjoy ourselves. But at any time you want to leave, let me know, and we will leave. I only ask that you keep an open mind." And with that, we walked through the doors.
I first noticed that we entered what appeared to be a long corridor. It had to be close to the length of a football field. People were milling about the corridor. I then noticed that some people were looking at the walls or maybe pictures on the walls. Then I realized that all of the walls were glass. The ones closest to me were opaque. "What is this?" I walked up to the glass wall on my right.
"This is Petals. It is a safe space for people to explore their sexuality. A club of sorts. You can learn, try or watch anything you can imagine here." He walked to the nearest glass wall and appeared to hit a button next to the glass. Almost instantly, the opaque glass was transparent, and I could see what was happening on the other side.
