A Dream All Her Own

The October night was chilly and filled with excitement for Mandy, who had recently moved to the small, quiet town. She walked into Club Arkadia and was greeted by a receptionist who informed her that two men were eagerly waiting to meet the writer of one of their favorite books. The atmosphere was lively, and the music was loud, but Mandy couldn't help but feel intimidated by the fit and stunning men and women in the club. She didn't want to cause any trouble on her first visit, especially since Mark and Chris seemed to be friends with the two men.

Chris declared that he would set a dungeon master outside the door to ensure Mandy's safety. Later that night, after an incident that caused her immense pain, Mandy soaked in the tub, hoping to wash away the hurt. Her cell phone rang incessantly, but she ignored it, wanting to forget everything that had happened.

As she slowly approached the gate leading to her property, a sense of dread filled her as she saw Michelle, Mark, and Chris standing there, flanked by the two men who had caused her immense pain. Her heart raced as she tried to make sense of their presence. Sheriff Scott, who had accompanied them, trying to convince her to keep everyone else out, but the look in his eyes was disconcerting. She couldn't shake the feeling that something was off about the situation. As she stood there, she couldn't help but wonder what awaited her on the other side of the gate.

Sissy knew that Mandy had gone to Club Arkadia, but she didn't want to ask until Mandy was ready to share her story. Meanwhile, Moonstar watched as the clans gathered and moved towards the barn doors that Adrian and Wulf had opened. The decorations were stunning, and the barn doors were wide open, inviting guests inside.

Will Mandy ever feel safe to enter a club again after her traumatic experience?
