The Irresistible Bundle (50 page)

Valentino laughed. "I thoroughly enjoyed myself that night. Those two are insatiable."

"Damn that's right" Nicholas threw his head back. "You had a threesome with those two. Fuck me..." he groaned. "Maybe we need to get them to do a scene."

"Don't get ahead of yourself" Marco snickered. "Carina had to shut that one in the bud because Sati wanted very much to be a member of the inner circle."

"Have you been with her since that night?" Nicholas asked. He shifted trying to ease the ache in his heavy balls. These performances were fucktastic but they were torturing him. He was going to need to head into the estate and blow off some steam before calling it a night.

"I had her once more. She's the reason why I was able to send flowers to Carina on Thanksgiving Day. I don't take her for granted at all. Things could've gone sour between the three of us. Sati bowed out graciously." Valentino stated.

"Amen to that" Marco wholeheartedly agreed as they watched a couple move to a private booth. This night allowed club goers to partake in sexual activities since they were
Hedonism's
members. It was one of the defining features of
Scandalous
.

"Do you know what the girls have planned tonight?" Valentino looked at Nicholas. He was immensely pleased with their performances and professionalism.

"Nope but they haven't failed me yet" Nicholas shrugged. "The only thing I know is that they're doing a major number for the closing act. If I like it we may do that rather than three separate acts at the end of each night."

"Boss man" a scantily dressed woman approached the men. Nicholas nodded his head allowing the interruption.

The woman flushed under the intense gaze of three virile males. She looked at Nicholas' chest as she reported to him. "We need two or three more attendants at the estate" her voice slightly trembled as she reported the staff shortage. "The property is at maximum capacity because of the Summer Solstice festivities..."

"Say no more" Nicholas commanded. They'd been so focused on the grand opening of the nightclub that he'd left the estate in the hands of his second-in-command. It was a critical annual event that couldn't afford any errors. "I'll get you assistance... Give me a few minutes. If you'll excuse us gentlemen..."

Chapter Six

Nicholas strode off to the performer's area praying that Carina wasn't the main element for their next act. Nicholas burst into the room without knocking causing some of the girls to scream. Chelsea took the opportunity to flaunt her naked body at Nicholas before taking her time to slip a robe on.

"Is something wrong?" Carina asked. She held her breath anxiously waiting for Nicholas' response. The performance was their more risqué set but the crowd appeared to love it.

Nicholas noticed Carina's hesitant demeanor. In his haste to track them down, Nicholas realized he'd neglected to give feedback on their last number. "That set is exactly what I'm looking for during member-only nights." He stated as he looked at each girl. "It was extremely erotic and tastefully done. You ladies had the crowd on the edge of their seat."

Ariel and Beatriz high-fived each other while Carina and Desirae patted Sati on the back. Sati flushed under the praise.

"Who leads the next number?" Nicholas inquired.

"Sati, Andrea, and Beatriz" the girls answered unison. Nicholas breathed a sigh of relief. As much as he wanted all three of them Carina and Desirae could get as much accomplished.

"I'll need to take Desirae and Carina for the estate" Nicholas replied.

"But we need them for the final number" Ariel spluttered.

"They'll be back in time" Nicholas assured them. "But tonight is a big night for the estate as well and technically their priority is
Hedonism
."

"Of course we'll go" Carina appeased him. She eyed the girls daring them to say anything else. They wouldn't have this job if it weren't for Nicholas and the estate.

"Thank you" Nicholas breathed as he motioned for them to exit. "Have a great next number Sati. I personally hung the swings." He winked at the girls loving their innovative performances. He hated the fact that he'd miss their live performance but he looked forward to seeing the footage with the girls using the sex swings.

Shadows hovered above the dark stage as everyone eagerly awaited the
Irresistible 8's
next performance. Jaxon shifted in his seat trying to identify what was happening on stage. Selena Gomez's voice immediately sounded through the club as the lights slowly revealed three figures hanging in the air. Jaxon gasped as Sati, Andrea, and Beatriz hung from sex swings on stage. Chelsea, Ariel, and Melissa stood onstage away from the swings. All six girls performed the same dance but in different positions. Jaxon watched with awe as they mimicked the musical award performance but with a more erotic twist.

"Where's Carina and her friend?" Richard asked his nephew. As enjoyable as this performance was no one denied looking forward to seeing Carina in her element.

"I don't know" Jaxon frowned as he looked around. Carina and Desirae were nowhere in sight. Nicholas was also absent making Jaxon's blood boil; if the bastard was having an intimate moment with them... He shook his head ridding the ridiculous thoughts. Marco and Valentino were by the bar, there was no way Nicholas would pull some shit like that.

"Wow" Richard breathed as Sati effortlessly flipped in the swing. "The things I could do to her in that" he murmured.

Jaxon laughed at his Uncle. "Too bad you can't" he taunted. Jaxon hissed pushing away the vivid images in his head of Sati and that swing. If he had any chance in hell to win Carina back he couldn't look at any of them unless Carina okay'd it.

The crowd roared as the song ended. It was another flawless and unforgettable performance. The girls slinked away while the DJ made several announcements. Jaxon chuckled as he watched Marco and Valentino work the room with Nicholas nowhere to be seen. They approached each table and mingled with the members. Jaxon watched them circle the room. It was inevitable that they'd stop at his table.

"What's so funny" Richard asked as he looked around. He couldn't see what had Jaxon so entertained.

"You'll see" Jaxon snickered as Marco approached the table.

Marco made eye contact with Richard and shook his hand. "Mr. Wright" he greeted. "Are you gentlemen enjoying yourselves this evening?"

Richard smiled broadly at the club manager. "Tremendously" Richard exclaimed. "The ladies are extraordinary."

"Agreed" Marco laughed, "Is there anything you need this evening?"

Richard noticed that the club manager hadn't acknowledged his nephew. The longer the man stood at their table the more the tension increased. Richard wasn't sure what to make of it all. "Jaxon did you need anything?"

Jaxon's wolfish smile made Richard internally cringe. Nothing good would come out of this conversation. "Nicholas is taking care of what I want" Jaxon gloated. "It shouldn't be too hard since I only asked for one thing."

Marco gritted his teeth. Jaxon was saying one thing but insinuating another. Nicholas had made no mention of fulfilling special requests for this fucker.

"Is that why you two keep meeting" Richard chuckled. Jaxon had been attached to Nicholas for the past week.

Jaxon nodded with satisfaction. "I can't wait to perform with
belleza
."

Marco visibly stiffened making Richard sit up and take notice. Jaxon smirked while Marco bristled with anger.

"Enjoy the rest of your evening" Valentino smoothly stepped in before Marco could say anything. Valentino grabbed Marco's shoulder and practically pushed him away from the table.

"What the fuck was that" Valentino hissed to his lover and best friend.

"That motherfucker claims that Nicholas is approving him and Carina performing together." Marco snarled. Valentino froze. His eyes darted between Marco and Jaxon's table.

"Exactly" Marco taunted. All he wanted to do was rearrange the good-looking fucker's face. "What the hell is Nicholas thinking?"

Valentino took a cleansing breath. He needed to think. Nicholas knew how they felt about Jaxon. Nicholas knew the back story. It made no sense to allow Carina to perform with that arrogant bastard. "We'll just have to wait to speak to Nicholas in private."

Marco scowled unhappy with Valentino's response.

"After we've closed and shut everything down" Valentino warned. Marco was passionate in everything including lovemaking and anger. The new establishment couldn't afford the management acting unprofessionally.

"Fine" Marco grumbled. "But I'm tackling his ass down the moment the place clears out."

Valentino playfully elbowed Marco. "You and me both... For now get your ass back in work mode."

Marco laughed as he walked away. Valentino watched Marco's muscular shoulders relax. His lover's sultry smile melted women and men alike. Valentino tucked his hands in his pocket as he walked over to security to check in with them. He couldn't wait for the night to end so that he could crawl into bed with Marco and Carina.

Nicholas stretched out his tight muscles as the last of his employees left for the night. The addition of
Scandalous
was kicking his ass. He didn't know what Marco and Valentino were doing with Club 69 while they oversaw the opening of
Scandalous
. Nicholas was too exhausted to be concerned about them.

The office door slammed open with a menacing Marco storming in. "He's here" Marco shouted as a calmer Valentino followed. Nicholas leaned back in his chair wondering what the hell was up the Italian's ass. All reports indicated that the night was successful. The girls' closing number with the other performers had been entertaining and completely arousing. Nicholas stretched his legs out as his pants tightened. The erotic performance still thrummed through his veins. Nicholas was almost disappointed that he'd missed the first time they'd done it at Club 69 but Carina more than made up for it tonight.

All three groups had spread out to cover every willing participant in the club. Although Carina's primary role was to sing, she'd made sure to perform lap dances for specific men - no one touched Valentino and Marco until she'd danced with them. Nicholas had ensured to position himself so that she'd dance for him too. And somehow Jaxon had maneuvered himself so that Carina had no choice but to dance for him. That was fucking hot to watch and it all clicked for Nicholas. It was insane to deny the request. Carina and Jaxon were explosive.

"Focus" Marco snapped his fingers. "Get your mind out of whatever gutter you got it in."

"Calm down Marco" Valentino warned. They wouldn't get anywhere throwing insults at each other.

"I won't calm the fuck down until Nicholas verifies that piece of shit is lying."

"Who are we talking about?" Nicholas calmly asked although he suspected he knew the POS Marco was referring to.

"Jaxon" Marco and Valentino simultaneously replied. Marco's voice hissed the name while Valentino sounded somewhat exasperated about it.

"And" Nicholas pressed. He wanted them to be specific about what they were talking about. He wasn't going to freely go into everything.

"Jaxon claims you've approved performances between him and Carina" Marco yelled as he threw his hands in the air. "As many times as we demanded that he not be here while Carina was under this roof... you... now this..."

"It's precisely because of that reason that I've had to make concessions with Mr. Wright." Nicholas ruefully replied. He refused to say Jaxon's first name to remind Marco and Valentino that Jaxon was
his
client. "I denied him an invitation to one of the estate's biggest events. Then I denied him access whenever Carina visited. How is that fair to a paying member? Especially one with the type of VIP status that the Wright family has" Nicholas added.

Valentino solemnly nodded while Marco looked unimpressed. Nicholas narrowed his eyes at Marco as he continued. "The Wrights came in demanding to know the state of their affairs. I don't bullshit my clients - especially ones that can negatively affect my business. Rather than credit his account financially I offered Jaxon to make amends in another way. I've heard him sing before and he's done a few scenes for me. Seeing his and Carina's chemistry tonight only solidifies my decision. This is only business gentlemen. I can't make decisions based on my friends and their preferences. I haven't spoken with Carina yet but as long as what I request is reasonable I don't imagine she'll have a problem with it."

"Are you saying that you're going to ask her to do a
scene
with him?" Valentino challenged; his understanding demeanor quickly morphing to anger.

"I'm saying that I'm going to ask her to perform at
Scandalous
with him. They'll do musical performances and potentially an erotic number." Nicholas purposely didn't answer Valentino's question. If Jaxon and Carina looked as good as they did tonight he sure as hell planned to have them do a scene within
Hedonism
...

"And you weren't going to run this by us" Marco growled. He wanted to rip someone's fucking head off. Carina had only been in their life for seven months and he didn't want to risk losing her to this fucktard who couldn't keep his dick in his pants.

"This is a business decision and the only person's permission I need is Carina's. Valentino I expect that if she mentions it to you that you remember this club also belongs to you both." Nicholas' aggressive posture had Marco fisting his hands.

"We'd like to be present when you speak with Carina about this" Valentino calmly stated. Nicholas and Marco looked ready to take swings at each other.

"Absolutely not" Nicholas shot back. "You weren't present when I spoke with her about
Scandalous
and playing the role of guest services.... You sure as fuck won't be involved with this discussion."

"I'm outta here" Marco hissed. If he stayed any longer Marco knew he was liable to jump across the desk and knock Nicholas' teeth out. The son of a bitch was dying to make this happen! Marco could see it through Nicholas' flashing eyes and vibrating body. He stormed out without another word.

Valentino sighed as he ran his fingers through his dark hair. He hated the idea but Nicholas was right. This had the potential to be a brilliant business move. The thing Valentino dreaded most was actually seeing them together. Would their proximity re-ignite something? Would Jaxon find a way to win her back? Valentino didn't think so but he didn't really want to test the theory. The last few months had gone wonderfully. Carina fit perfectly into his and Marco's worlds. She wasn't the jealous and insecure type making it easier to work in their industry. The best part was her openness to try new things. They'd mixed things up with Nicholas several times and invited a previous lover. Marco and Valentino had been shocked that Carina was okay with that. There was no awkwardness or hostility making it such a pleasurable experience. Carina truly was a priceless gift.

"I don't expect Carina to jump up and down with joy about this" Nicholas quietly stated. The hostility level had almost disappeared with the absence of Marco's presence. "But I know she'll look at this from all angles before making her decision. I can't guarantee whether or not she'll discuss this with you two beforehand but I expect that the conversation will not be close-ended with no room for discussions. Play devil's advocate... Address your concerns personally and professional but ultimately it needs to be her decision."
