“Just waiting for your last minute addition,” she said, keeping her suspicion out of her voice. “Unless she’s called to cancel?”

“Oh no, he’s right here,” Patrick said, grinning so widely it looked like his smile was about to split his face. “Sorry we held him up a little.”

Looking into Luke’s bright blue eyes, which looked torn between amusement and a bit of regret, Olivia froze. Her jaw clenched to keep from dropping, her body flashing cold and then hot as shock and anger washed over her.

Those bastards set her up.

Tearing her gaze away from Luke’s, she glared at Patrick.

He grinned, satisfaction showing in his eyes.

Payback, his expression said.

He should be grateful she’d helped Lexie get into the club and pushed them together, dammit. Look at how happy he was now!

Olivia narrowed her eyes.

It was not the same situation.

He raised his eyebrow at her. Wanna bet?

She raised hers right back. I won the last one.

Olivia had bet Angel would go through with the surprise wedding Adam had thrown her. Patrick had thought she’d at least punch or slap him, if not outright run.

“Are you having an entire conversation with your eyebrows?” Mitch asked, sounding fascinated. “Is that a dominant thing, or just for you two?”

“We’ve known each other a long time,” Olivia said smoothly, almost thankful to Mitch for giving her a reason to look away from her long-time asshole of a friend. Who was so going to pay for this sneak attack. She focused back on Luke, who was smart enough to look a little worried. As he should be. What did the idiot think he was doing, signing up for the submissive class? Olivia gestured to the booth on the other side of the room. “Go sit with the other submissives.”

As soon as Luke was moving, she glared at Patrick and Michael. The latter had been smart enough to hide slightly behind his bigger friend, but she didn’t miss the amusement in his eyes. “You two, out.”

“Have fun,” Patrick said, still smirking. He offered up a piece of paper as Michael hurried past, still grinning. “Here’s his survey and limits. Sorry they’re a little late.”

Her eyes narrowed at his retreating form. There was definitely going to be payback.

Brian cleared his throat. “Ma’am? What would you like us to do?”

Giving herself a shake, Olivia refocused on what she was supposed to be doing right now.

Class.

New subbies.

Baby Doms.

Got it.

A sadistic little smile curled her lip. “I’ve rethought my stance. Mitch, I’ll pair you up with Rae, but I’m going to make the mentor assignments for this evening.”
