This is going to be a slow burner on the transformations. I'm hoping that character development makes up for it. As always characters are over the age of 18.Constructive criticism is always welcomed, enjoy!
Cade strode into the BDSM club that his brother Colt owned. He walked up to the bar and nodded at his brother, Colt. As Colt made his way towards the end of the bar Cade asked if there was a game going on in the back. Colt gave him the "Are you kidding me look?" as he buzzed Cade through. As he entered the back hall a sweet intoxicating scent assaulted his nostrils, immediately stirring Cade's wolf.
The guy facing the door had several collared girls sitting behind him wearing basic black body con dresses and one in scarlet red kneeling beside him. Cade barely noticed the other 3 in the room as he nodded at the dealer. He's eyes falling on the source of the smell. His wolf howled...MINE!
Scarlet knelt besides Steven, pondering how she could get out of this and convince Steven not to spill whatever secret he had about her sister. She jumped as the new guy walked into the room. His eyes devoured her momentarily and she watched violent anger flair in his eyes as they skimmed over Steven.
The poker game was just getting started so no big spenders yet; it wasn't long before Cade had pushed the game in that direction. Several guys left the table probably earlier than they wanted. Cade found his gaze lingering on the scarlet clad girl at the guys feet. Cade smiled reaching his hand out to the guy he had been mentally referring to as Asshole, "Cade."
Asshole chuckled but reached his hand out as well, "Steven."
The other guy who was still hanging in there shrugged, "Jeff."
45 minutes later it was just Steven and Cade. Cade had watched how Steven would slap the girl on the floor when he was losing, calling her names and belittling her and stroke her softly when his hand was good. His wolfed growled wanting nothing more than to leap across the table and rip his throat out.
Scarlet found her eyes drifting to Cade no matter what she did. Steven's blows inflamed those golden eyes. The same eyes that she felt linger on her so frequently.
Cade's eyes drifted to the girl again. He wanted her and not just for the night. Last hand he mentally thought going all in. Cade smiled after taking two cards but noticed Steven stroking the pets hair. Steven went all in, and so did Cade.
"Well," Steven said, "you have a bit more on the table. I can get the rest up front after we wrap this up."
Cade snorted, "Nah, whatcha got in this room?" Perfect Cade thought knowing exactly where he wanted this to go.
Steven nodded, "Fair enough. I got a Rolex." He tossed it in the pile.
Cade picked up the Rolex to confirm it was real, "Still a bit short though."
"Okay, well that's all I got," Steven snapped, "we're back at I can get it up front."
Cade glared. "I'll take one of those," Cade said motioning to the girls.
Steven grabbed a random one from behind him shoving her forward.
Cade shook his head, "No way, my pick...and I want that one." He motioned to the girl on the floor, "You've had her beside you all night. She must be some kind of lucky charm."
"Fuck you," Steven exclaimed.
"Well seeing as how you're at my brother's club...in a back room...I'd say you're the one who's fucked," Cade pushed, "So that's the deal, the scarlet girl or I take the inconvenience I'm having out on your fucking face."
Steven snarled but grabbed a piece of paper and wrote whore on it.
He must think he's clever Cade thought, "No write scarlet whore on it. I want no confusion."
Steven nodded. The scarlet one had perked up and looked nervous. Cade smiled inwardly.
Cade laid out 2 Aces and 3 Kings...
"Motherfucker," Steven exclaimed tossing his 2 eights and 2 queens on the table, "You fucking bitch." Steven raised his hand to slap the scarlet clad girl but Cade grabbed his arm.
"That's mine," he stated.
Steven turned bringing his fist around but Cade deflected it easily. He shoved him towards his gaggle and scooped up his girl turning his back and leaving his brothers men to handle Steven.
"Please, don't," she asked.
"Mine," Cade said pulling her close his inner wolf wanted out now! To mark her and destroy the idiot. Cade's long strides had them at the door to the club in moments and his deep breathing calmed his wolf. He could hear Steven yelling then a soft grunt a clear sign his gut was meeting a fist.
Cade nodded and turned to the guy holding the door to his SUV, "I'd rather not deal with him again tell my brother to get my piece of paper."
Cade knew all the money, watch and paper would have been gathered immediately upon Steven's poor reaction to losing but wanted to be sure the paper was grabbed. He felt insanely possessive though he couldn't yet justify his reaction.
He placed the girl in the backseat and climbed in beside her. Fuck she's short but not small; a little heavy giving her delicious looking curves. "Home," he called to his driver.
The small thing scooted away but Cade easily grabbed her and pulled her back, "Name?"
She looked up at him nervously, "Pet."
Giving him the name Steven had given her.
Cade leaned closer, inhaling deeply to calm himself, "Not the name the fuck head gave you." Her scent tickled his nose and set his brain abuzz and his wolf beamed with pride. Before he knew it he had licked a long slow lick up her neck before nibbling her ear and breathing her in again.
