Dark Kingdom 13

She couldn't tell how long they were out.

They had long since left the city center they knew and were half wandering through a dark suburb.

Usagi felt more and more uncomfortable.

Mamoru had just confessed to her that he was a criminal who belonged to the yakuza. Or at least surround himself with them.

But did that really make him a gangster?

Maybe it was quite harmless. Maybe he just cooked for her now and then.

We are there.

Usagi startled from mad, confused thoughts.

Wow.

How it would look inside.

"You stay in the car." Mamoru said when he took off his seat belt.

What? No. Naru is my friend.

"Just stay here." The way he said that made her obey.

She watched as he passed a beefy doorman, to whom he nodded.

"What an idiot." She cursed and got out too.

Naru was her best friend and she would do the hell and just wait here.

She ran quickly to the entrance, but stopped at a respectful distance in front of the tall, bald doorman. He greeted her with a single raised eyebrow.

I belong to him.

Usagi! Didn't I tell you to stay in the car?

Naru doesn't know you. So why should she come back with you?

Go back to the car! he demanded.

What should happen. It's just a normal party.

You are together? asked a friendly female voice right next to her.

She belonged to a slim, pretty, and pretty nude blonde. Which cruel organizer lets women only sell tickets in underwear in such cold temperatures?

What did she say Usagi repeated the sentence in her mind and was positively startled.

"No!" She waved in shock.

Yes.

"What?" Usagi stared at him in disbelief. He seemed completely indifferent to what she thought of this sudden fact.

A click brought her back.

Handcuffs?

A normal party, yes?

"You knew about it?" Usagi was close to passing out.

This feeling, however, increased many times over when the large iron double doors were opened in front of them.

The entrance to the property was just as Usagi had envisioned it. Parquet floors, antique furniture, a huge spiral staircase with old paintings on the wall. She could certainly have watched it for hours.

If it hadn't been for so many people.

Exclusively couples. Also chained to each other like her to Mamoru.

With one difference.

They were all naked. And apparently they weren't just here to have a drink.

Usagi gasped.

Where the hell did she get in?

Where the hell had Naru got into?

I told you to wait in the car. she heard Mamoru's voice.
