Consume Me (Devoured Club Series) (3 page)

Chapter 4- Emma

Saturday had come quicker than I’d hoped for. Today was the first day of the training sessions at Devoured. I had been anticipating tonight all week long, but my stomach was nauseous and weary. I didn’t know if I could go through with it, even if it was what I wanted – or at least what I
thought
I wanted. Even though I had said I was a complete newbie at the submissive thing, I wasn’t. I’d researched and dabbled a few times while I was in college, although I’d never found the right partner. I’d ended up suppressing my desires and stayed vanilla, and where had that landed me? Crap ass relationships where I was left unsatisfied! 

My nerves were on edge as I
thought about seeing Master Marcus again. The man had my hormones in overdrive and I barely knew him.
Barely! Hell! I didn’t know him at all, but he was extremely gorgeous.
He had been in the forefront of my fantasies this past week. I’d felt the chemistry that had flowed between us the other day. He didn’t even have to touch me, and I had already known he’d be my undoing. I took a breath. I needed to keep my emotions in control; he was the training Dom, not my personal Dom.

“Alright
, I’m leaving. Are you sure that you guys have the shop tonight?” I asked, directing the question to Nikki and Ally.

“Yeah, I’m pretty sure we can handle selling a few cupcakes here and there,” Nikki responded to me
, rolling her eyes. I knew the shop would be fine, but I wouldn’t be me if I hadn’t voiced my concern.

Ally came around the corner from the front
. “Where are you going tonight anyway?”

“I have a meeting
to attend to. It’s none of your business.” I was curt and she didn’t deserve the response I gave her, but she had taken me by surprise.

“You don’t have to be such a bitch, Em. It’s just different seeing you have a lif
e outside of here. Sorry if we’re a bit curious,” Ally snapped back.

“You’re right. I’m sorry. I’ll tell you more about it when I know if I am going to continue or not. Tonight is the first meeting. Let me see if I like it. Deal?”

“Yeah, that’ll do.” Ally walked up to me and hugged me. “Have a good night, whatever it is you are doing.”

“You too
, Ally.” I turned to Nikki. “Make sure you prep the frosting for tomorrow. I should be in early enough to get a jump start on the order.”

“Yep. Have fun. We have it covered.”

“Okay. See you two later.” I left the shop and looked at my watch. I only had about an hour and half to get ready and get to the club. The nerves were really starting to set in.

An hour later I was showered and dressed. I made sure my girly area was nice and fresh, even moisturized.
Yeah, I know…moisturized? The damn thing was waxed the other day and I wanted to make sure it was smooth, just in case.
I didn’t really know what to wear, or what was expected besides the small information pack that Marcus had sent me home with.

I was wearing a short black mini
skirt, three inch high heels with a rhinestone embellishment, and a dark purple corset that laced up the front. No underwear and no bra, as outlined in the “rules”. I had placed the front of my hair up but kept the back down to cover me a little, even though I had a feeling that I wouldn’t be doing much hiding.

Before I lost all my nerve, I grabbed my keys, small purse and the
questionnaire. I glanced at the front page, and narrowed into the one question that I had answered briefly,
What is your ultimate fantasy or desire?
The answer was short and brief.
No control, I don’t want to think.
I know that wasn’t a real answer and I would have to explain it, but it was what it was. I didn’t want to have control, or a need to be the alpha during a sexual experience. I’d spent too many years being the one that was left unsatisfied, the one that felt like a robotic blowjob giver. Even when I had one night stands, I still found myself dictating the course of sex, and it was never fulfilling. I yearned for more.

*****

I arrived at Devoured about ten minutes early.
Good. I had time to put my stuff away and attempt to calm down.
My hands were beginning to sweat, getting clammy as I walked into the front entrance.

It was only seven, but there was some action going on. The club was darker than the other day when I was here
, and the sound system was piping music throughout the floor. I was greeted by a young hot-looking guy at the door. He was wearing black cargo pants, a black tight tee shirt, and had a radio attached to his ear. His hair was short, military like, and I could see a tattoo on his forearm. His blue eyes accented against his brown hair and he towered over me by almost a foot.

“Can I help you
, miss?” The accent coming out of his mouth only made him hotter. I lost my train of thought for a minute. “Miss?”

“I’m sorry. Yes, um…
I am looking for Master Marcus? I am supposed to start the new program tonight.”

My voice was shaky as I answered him.

“Your name?”

“Emma. Emma O’Conne
r.”

He looked at the clipboard in his hands and then back up at me and smiled. “Yes, Ms. O’Conner. You will want to place your stuff in the locker room towards your left
, and then meet the rest of the subs in the roped off area at the back of the dungeon floor. Make sure you are kneeling,” he said with a wink.

“Um, okay. Do you know what locker I have or do I just pick one
?” I really didn’t know what the hell I was supposed to be doing.

“You have been assigned a locker and you can find the number when you look at the list in the locker room. Have a good night.” His tone was brief and dismissing. Apparently I asked too many questions.

I nodded and headed towards the locker rooms to secure my belongings and splash some water on my face.
You can do this Emma. It is what you want.

Chapter 5- Marcus

“You have everything you need?” Lucas asked from his desk, as I finished changing in the bathroom that was adjacent to our office.

“Yes. All the training collars and cuffs
are set, and I have Devlin and Sarah helping out tonight, as we have more experienced subs and a male. This way I can focus on the virgins, so to say. Caleb should be stopping by. I added him to the VIP list.”

“Good. Mac is working the door tonight
, and I have the other Masters rotating on the floor and the private rooms. I’ll be on the floor with Chloe tonight, if anything is needed.”

“Thanks, man. We’ve trained subs before,” I responded
, and chuckled at the thought. I was slightly nervous for some reason and, honestly, it was a foreign feeling to me.
I’d never been nervous to train a submissive before or scene with one; the atmosphere of planning an activity whether rope work or impact play usually excited me. It wasn’t always about the sex, just about the submission of the submissive, their willingness to please and be pleased. Hell most nights I have a line begging for me to take them into my dungeon room.

Emma.
It had to be the idea of seeing her that had me worked up.
I didn’t know why she had me all fucked up, but she did
. I grabbed the five sets of collars and cuffs and headed toward the dungeon floor. Tonight was going to be simple. I was going to explain the rules and protocols of the club, introduce the Master Doms that would be assisting from time to time, and go over the surveys with the subs on an individual basis, while Devlin and Sarah monitored the rest of the group.

With the exception of Emma and Jack,
all of the trainees had experience within the lifestyle and as subs. They were part of the program so that we could help match them with a Dom. Plus, two of them also wanted to be house subs, an idea that Lucas and I were toying with. Callie was not technically a house sub, but she made herself available to just about anything or anyone. Lucas and I had both had our share of scenes with her, and she’d been quite bratty since Chloe had become Lucas’s submissive.

I rounded the corner from the hallway that lead to the floor
, and saw the subs kneeling in the area that I had roped off earlier. I specifically chose the area towards the back of the floor, right in front of the large black St. Andrew’s cross that Emma had focused on during her interview.

“Good evening
, pets. You all look fantastic tonight.” I could see them all smile in response to the praise.

“Tonight is going to be more of an orientation than anything else. I am going to go over protocol
s and rules, tell you what is expected of you, and present you with your training collars.” I paused a moment before continuing. “I will also be speaking with some of you individually about your questionnaires. Since some of you already have experience, tonight will focus primarily on the newbies.”

I glanced over at the trainees and
they all nodded their heads in acknowledgement. I radioed into my ear piece to have Devlin and Sarah join me.

“I have asked Master Devlin and Mistress Sarah to
help tonight. Jack, you will be working with Mistress Sarah during your training sessions unless another Dom wants to scene with you. Understood?”

“Yes.” He responded looking at
Sarah then back at me.

“Yes what, Jack?” I demanded back.

He was hesitant with his answer, “yes, sir?”

“Very good.
I assume you all read the rules and remember that any male or female Dominant will be called Sir or Ma’am. There are members that are Dominants, and then there are Master Doms, identified by a gold arm band. The Master Doms, such as Devlin, Sarah and I, will be referred to as Master and our respective names; Sarah will be referred to as Mistress Sarah. If we ask you a question, you are to respond with Sir or Ma’am. Is that understood?”

A slew of “yes sirs” came from them at once. I glanced over at Emma
, and watched as she shivered when our eyes made contact. I was positive she felt the same thing I felt. There was this burning lust and passion that was there. I was royally fucked.

“Overall, you are to follow the guidelines that were handed to you with your
questionnaire. I am responsible for your safety while you are in training. I will make the final decisions on who you scene with, what you are allowed to do, and how you will be dressed while inside the club.” I paused, glanced at the trainees and then continued.

“There will be individual sessions for training
, but you are required to be here with the group on both Friday and Saturday nights, as most of the members frequent the club those nights. Any questions so far?” I waited for the subs to shake their heads and respond with “no, sir.”

“Good. I am going to present you with your collars and cuffs. You are to wear these while you are here. You are not allowed to place them on yourself or remove them. You will bring them to me or the Maste
r Dom overseeing you. Understood?” I pointed to Devlin and Sarah for emphasis. “Tonight you will remain clothed as this is your first session.”

Another round of “yes, sir.”

“Devlin, if you can hand the sets to me.” I turned to Devlin and he started with Jack’s.

“Here you go, Marc.”

“Thanks.” Turning back to my trainees, “these collars and cuffs have been custom made for you, and, as you can see, are fitted with colors. These colors signify the answers to the questions that you answered on the application. Anal is yellow, bondage is blue, intercourse is green, orange is for receiving oral, purple is for giving oral, red is for partner flexibility. All of the Master Doms know the classifications, and will not allow any scene to be done that goes against what you have agreed to.”

A hand rose up from one of the female subs. “Yes,
Serena?”

“Sir, what if our preferences change?”

“Good question. We will adjust the collar and cuffs. No worries. Now let’s get you collared and cuffed.”

Sarah collared Jack and Devlin ended up collaring Serena and Kensie, while I collared Becky and finally Emma.

“Emma, look up.” My command was quick and to the point. She slowly lifted her gaze until our eyes met. I took the collar and placed it around her neck, pausing as I ran my fingers around her throat to the back to fasten the collar. I gently brought my fingers back to her throat, slower than I should have. But the electrical charge between us was enormous. I leaned down and whispered into her ear, “You felt that too. I know you did. I saw the way your body reacted to my touch. You don’t know how bad I want to fuck you in my room.”

Her body flushed a light pink color. Yeah, she definitely liked the sound of that. “Your hands
, pet. Hold them out to me.”

She did as requested and I placed the cuffs on her wrists. I couldn’t wait to lock them behind her and bend her over the sawhorse in my dungeon. We might just have to start her individual training tonight. A smile crested my lips.

“Alright subs. Jack you will go off with Sarah. Devlin will be taking Kensie and Serena. Alice and Emma will be assisting Sam with the delivery of drinks to the members, and I will be watching all of you. Enjoy the night.”

As I dismissed the subs, I watched as Emma headed toward the bar. She was turned on and aroused. Edgy.
But she also seemed defeated. I was going to change that by the end of the night.
Or was I?
As much as I wanted her, I knew I couldn’t have her – yet.
