She was still trying to work out in her head what she’d just witnessed. There had been no mistaking that he’d been kissing Zach of all people. The two of them had been in Olivia’s new Dom class - the Domme still referred to the four men who graduated from that class as her Baby Doms - but she hadn’t seen any sign of Zach being anything other than straight or dominant before. She had spent some time with both of them while she was dating Brian, one of the other four Doms who had come in at the same time.

“I’m going to have to ask you not to talk about what you just saw,” Kincaid said, his voice light but firm. Sharon looked up at him. Even in her heels, it was a long way up. His blue eyes, which contrasted nicely with his brown hair that had just a bit of a curl to it, were serious.

“Yes, Sir,” she said as they stepped into the main room. She got the impression Zach was still lingering in the back hall, staying out of sight.

Whatever was going on between the two men, they obviously didn’t want anyone to know.

“I’m serious, Shar,” Kincaid said, stopping walking and turning her to face him, both of his hands on her shoulders. “No one, not even Kate. Zach’s... struggling with some things. I don’t want him to be subject to any gossip.”

“Pinky promise,” she said, holding up her right hand with the pinky extended. “Not a word to anyone.”

Kincaid’s lips pressed together in amusement, but he lifted his pinky and curled it around hers. They hadn’t exactly become friends while she was dating Brian, but he knew her well enough to know that she took her pinky promises deadly seriously. “You’re trouble, you know that?”

“It wasn’t intentional this time,” she said honestly as their hands dropped away. “I swear.”

“It never is with you.” Leaning down, he gave her a kiss on the cheek before turning her towards the bar and swatting her ass hard enough to sting. “Go have fun, sweetheart.”

“Ouch,” she muttered under her breath, rubbing her ass. She glanced over her shoulder to see him heading down into the Dungeon. As far as she could tell, Zach was still lingering by the door to the outside. She felt a moment of sympathy for Zach - he must be confused as hell about what he really wanted. Kincaid wasn’t exactly easy to say no to. She did not envy him the big Dom’s attention, especially since Zach was supposed to be a Dom himself.

Turning back to the bar, she immediately located her friends again. Jake had arrived... and he was staring straight at her with a scowl. Looked like Grumpy Cap was back in action.

What the hell?
