Chapter 19 – Adonis
Odessa’s POV
There was an inner slut inside of me that wouldn’t shut up, and I’m not talking about Olympia who had submitted so easily.
I’d heard rumors about the Adonis and now that I was here, unbridled emotion threatened to take over. My eyes darted around taking it all in, and the thought of Hades seeing what I was seeing made me burn with jealousy. I didn’t want him looking at other women and I didn’t want other women looking at him.
Hades is sex on a stick. He wore black slacks and a black button-up dress shirt, but it does nothing to hide his muscled physique. The tip of a tattoo peeks from his collar on the side of his neck and everything about him screams control and dominance as if this was his natural environment. He quickly caught the attention of several women and a few men, who shamelessly eye fucked him. Somewhere deep inside, I wanted to be tucked away in a corner with him, feeling his large and confident hands all over me.
Growing up under my brother’s rule, I’ve always had to be the good girl. Not because I wanted to, but because I was a Theodorus. Being a Theodorus meant the males avoided me for fear my brother might castrate them. Something inside of me was begging to live on the wild side.
The sound of moans and ecstasy filled my ears and I tried not to react, but my body was craving something else. I met his heated gaze, there was something dark and possessive that sent a shiver through me. My mind was screaming warnings, reminding me he hadn’t claimed me, but my body was thrumming with need. I couldn’t help my traitorous body’s reaction and felt the wetness between my thighs.
Realizing we would be alone in an office together, panic set in. He would be able to scent the excitement on me. “I need to use the restroom.”
“The ones on the second floor are not as busy. The private viewing balconies are up here, along with the themed rooms.”
“Themed rooms?” I asked.
He stopped at the restroom door and pulled it open for me with a sexy smirk on his face. “Don’t ask a question you’re not prepared to hear the answer to. I’m more of a hands on instructor.” Olympia purred and the horny slut in me wanted to ask him to show me.
The bathroom was very posh, and I was greeted by an attendant. I smiled and moved into the stall to slip off my wet panties. Afraid Hades might be able to scent them in my purse, I tossed them in the wastebasket. I wiped myself dry, flushed the toilet, and stepped out of the stall. I took another moment to wash my hands and comb my fingers through my hair. The mate mark Haze had given me was staring me back in the mirror.
I took a deep breath and pushed the door open expecting to find Hades waiting for me. He was down the corridor with his back turned to me, looking at a mirror. When I neared the big mirror, I noticed it was a one- way mirror, allowing people to view the activities in the room.
“This one’s called, The Voyeurs Delight. You can see them, but they can’t see you.” Hades didn’t turn his gaze to me, which allowed me to take a look without feeling like he was scrutinizing my reaction.
A woman was restrained to a leather bench, bent over with her ass to us. A bright blue jewel covered her back hole, and I felt my face burn with embarrassment, I knew what it was. I couldn’t see her face, but a man stood over her with a whip of some kind and I wondered if it would hurt.
“What is that?” I asked before I could stop myself.
“A jeweled butt plug,” he replied as casually as if I had asked about the weather.
“Not that. The instrument he’s holding.” I could die from shame at this moment. I don’t even know why I cared or why we were still lingering here, we had a mission to get back to.
“That’s a flogger,” he said just as the man started smacking the woman’s backside with it.
Sweet Goddess, I needed to get out of here!
“Right. Shouldn’t we get back to our mission?” I asked trying to distract myself from the sudden vision of Hades yielding a flogger over me.
“The office is on the third floor,” he reached for my hand and escorted me to the top floor. When we arrived on the third floor, a man in a dark suit along with a security guard approached us.
“Sir, I’m sorry. This area is off-limits. There’s nothing up here for our clientele,” he said apologetically, confusing us for horny club patrons.
“I’m Hades Kappas,” Hades said and recognition struck the man.
“Of course. It’s been so long since I last saw you, I’m Jonas” the man bowed his head.
“I’ve returned to Athens to handle my father’s estate.”
“We are all so sorry for your loss.” He said as he noticed our bracelets. “Are you here this evening for business or pleasure?”
“Business. It seems the bouncers at the front door did not recognize me as the new owner.”
“We will get that fixed right away, Sir.”
“Thank you, Jonas. Now if you don’t mind, I’d like to review a few items in my father’s office.”
“Right this way,” he moved quickly to a large wooden door, shoved the key in the lock, and opened it.
It didn’t take us long to go through the office because there wasn’t much to go through. A filing cabinet with all the paid bills related to the club expenses, payroll transactions, operating licenses, along with tax payment receipts.
“No trace of the financial records or bank records,” I said.
“They could be digital. He seems to have just the basics filed away, which means he was taking care of business from another location. I’ll take his laptop with me and see if Kazimir can trace anything.”
“If I was involved in mafia business, I’d certainly be more guarded. Legitimate business can’t be hidden, so it makes sense that everything is so tidy here. Offshore accounts might be harder to track,” I said.
His eyes flashed with surprise and respect before he gave me a wolfish grin. “Maybe for others, but not for us.”
“I think it’s safe to assume he wouldn’t keep any records of personal assets at a business belonging to the pack. We should focus on his personal businesses first.”
“Smart girl. I should spank you for that,” he crossed his arms over his chest and his eyes drank in my shocked expression.
“Excuse me? A spanking for being smart?”
“A reward for being smart,” his eyes burned into me.
“Naughty pups get spanked,” I rolled my eyes. “Speaking of naughty pups, we left Ninos downstairs, we should probably get back to him before he gets into trouble.” I needed to get out of this office, the energy radiating in his aura was driving me crazy. Something dark, powerful… hungry.
“Let’s go see what kind of mischief Ninos is up to.” Hades held the laptop under one arm and reached his free hand to my lower back. It was a little too low, intimate and I hoped he wouldn’t notice my lack of panties. We left the office and took the stairs back down to the second level.
“I believe we’ll be able to find Ninos faster from one of the balconies.” Hades pulled back a black velvet curtain that led to a private balcony with six deep leather cushioned chairs. I stepped into the balcony and Hades closed the curtain behind us. It was dark and allowed for some privacy while viewing the spectacle on the ground level and stage.
I wanted to be disgusted and indignant that he would bring me here, but my body was yearning for something else. My eyes found Ninos, he was currently laying on the bar, topless. Women had formed a line to take body shots off his abs. They licked salt from his lower abdominal area, slurped the alcohol off his stomach, and proceeded to bite down on the lime wedge between his chest muscles.
“Found him,” I nodded my head in Ninos’ direction.
“Would you like something to drink?” He set the laptop on a chair. “Are you offering body shots as well?”
“Yes, please,” Olympia purred.
“If it floats your boat, I’ll be your captain,” Hades pulled me to him, his firm chest was strong and warm. There was a small table in the corner that caught my eye, it held a bowl of colorful condoms. I could feel my face burning with embarrassment.
“Does this place make you feel uncomfortable?”
“No… It’s a little strange. I mean…” My eyes found the stage again where a beautiful woman was lying on her back, legs spread as a man buried his face between her legs. I couldn’t seem to look away and Hades watched me in fascination.
“You’re halfway there already,” he said as he moved behind me, wrapping his arms around me.
“Halfway where?” I leaned back into his warmth.
“You managed to lose your panties while you were here, and you’re wet.” His mouth brushed at my ear. “Wet for me.”
A shiver rippled through my body, and I closed my eyes trying to ignore how good his body felt pressed to my back. His arm slid down my side to my leg, and he slowly caressed my thigh as he moved higher. Hades pressed his lips against my neck and my lips parted with a low moan. Goddess, he felt so good.
His hand traced higher under my skirt and the butterflies in my stomach took flight when it landed in the soft curls at my center. I had always kept it in a neat and trimmed triangle, but suddenly I felt insecure as I wondered what he preferred. He cupped my entire sex in his palm and gave a squeeze. I gasped in surprise and anticipation. Everything tingled.
“Mine!” He growled in my ear and continued kissing my neck.
I did not attempt to push away. I couldn’t help the instinctive desire to be close to him, and I needed him to touch me. His fingers found their way into my wetness, and he let out a low hiss.
“I can smell your arousal, naughty pup,” his voice was raw and hungry. His fingers continued to glide through my folds, not penetrating, but enough to tease. He wrapped his other arm around my chest, holding me to him.
I squirmed, needing more. Trying to get his finger to my little bundle of nerves that was throbbing. His low chuckle vibrated against my neck as he licked over the spot Haze had marked, it was like a jolt of electricity radiating to my clit. I bit down on my lip trying to stifle a moan, but all was lost once he slipped two fingers into me.
My walls clung to his fingers and my body rocked with the slow rhythm. The pleasure slowly built up and Hades used his thumb to circle my clit. I turned my head sideways, needing to see his face and he captured my lips with his. His tongue demanded entrance and mine yielded, allowing him to kiss me possessively. I moaned into his mouth as my body moved towards something wondrous. Something I craved. Hades continued to work his fingers, driving me over the edge of a mind-blowing orgasm.
“Your face is stunning when you cum,” he whispered through the mind link. Hades brushed my hair to the side and lightly kissed my neck again before he withdrew his fingers and placed them in his mouth. He released a low groan, giving me a ravenous stare.
I looked away and the embarrassment flooded through me at what we had just done. This wasn’t supposed to happen, not here, and definitely not so soon. I had been too wrapped up in the sensation to stop it. Too far gone to worry about others who may have been watching. While it didn’t feel wrong, I knew I needed to remain guarded because I had no idea if Hades wanted a mate or a play thing.
We left the balcony, and I went to the restroom again, so I could clean up for the second time. This time I didn’t want Ninos to scent what had transpired. Damn these wolves and their wolfie noses.
The entourage that surrounded Ninos had grown. Hades reached for the shirt that Ninos had left on his barstool and tossed it at him, hitting him in the face.
“Did you find anything?” Ninos called out. “Nothing exciting,” Hades replied.
“Did you check out the dungeon yet?” He teased and watched for my reaction.
“What’s in the dungeon?” I asked just above a whisper as we moved towards the exit.
“Are you sure you want to know?” He nodded his head towards a stainless steel door marked dungeon with red letters. Somehow I knew this was nothing like the dungeons at our pack property.
I pressed my lips together, wondering if it could be any worse than what I saw upstairs in the themed room through the mirror. I imagined it would be much of the same, a small part of me was curious, but I didn’t have the courage to go down there.
“You don’t need courage,” Hades' voice came through the mind link in a low hum. “Only a good master and a leash.”
A leash? He couldn’t possibly be serious. Just then the steel door opened, and a man emerged wearing a suit, looking like he belonged in a boardroom meeting. The glimmer of a long and slender chain dangled from his hand, it was attached to a collar around a woman’s neck behind him. Cat ears rested on top of her head and a tail hung from her backside. I was wondering how or what kept the tail in place when a low chuckle sounded. Hades was amused, no doubt listening to my thoughts.
“It’s attached to a plug,” Hades smirked.
“What is it with humans and butt plugs?” I rolled my eyes.
“It’s not just humans, though I prefer wolf tails over cat tails,” he winked and led me out of the club.
“Your father also had an apartment in Greece,” Ninos said, walking back to our car.
“We should try the other club, the one in the Plaka district. It’s much smaller than the Adonis, but he kept a lot of security there,” Hades told us.
“The Howling Dogs doesn’t open until nine this evening, we have a few hours to burn. Should we search his apartment next?” Ninos asked as Hades pulled the car door open for me.
“The apartment isn’t too far,” Hades replied, and I slipped in. He moved to close the door and paused when my stomach grumbled. “But I need to take care of my mate first. She’s hungry and I know a great place with an incredible view.”
