Introduction
Dear Readers,
* * *
Welcome to the Suspenseful Seduction World!
The author of this book has borrowed (with my permission) one or more of my characters from the Trident Security series and/or the Doms of The Covenant series. Some are minor characters who are now getting their own story, thanks to the authors writing in my world, while others are major characters who are being mentioned to connect the story to my series. This book, and others like it, is being published through Suspenseful Seduction Publishing with a contractual agreement between myself and the author.
While I may have provided some suggestions for including my characters in the storyline, this book is the sole work of the author who wrote it. I was not involved in the writing or editing process, however, several Beta Readers familiar with my characters helped review the final product. While the BDSM lifestyle is included in most of the books in my series, it may or may not be included in the SSW authors’ storylines.
If you’re not familiar with my series, I’ve included a brief history of Trident Security and The Covenant, along with a Who’s Who of current (at the time this book was published) major characters in both series.
I’m honored so many authors loved my characters and series that they wanted to include them in their stories.
Thank you for supporting the author and me, and I hope you enjoy this extension of my Trident Security and/or Doms of The Covenant series.

Love,

Who’s Who and the History of Trident Security and The Covenant
***While not every character is in every book, these are the ones with the most mentions throughout the series. This guide will help keep readers straight about who’s who.
* * *
Trident Security (TS) is a private investigative and military agency, co-owned by Ian and Devon Sawyer. With governmental and civilian contracts, the company got its start when the brothers and a few of their teammates from SEAL Team Four retired to the private sector. The original six-man team is referred to as the Sexy Six-Pack, as they were dubbed by Kristen Sawyer, née Anders, or the Alpha Team. They, along with Ian and Devon’s brother, Nick, are now shareholders in the business. Trident had since expanded and former members of the military and law enforcement have been added to the staff. The company is located on a guarded compound, which was a former import/export company cover for a drug trafficking operation in Tampa, Florida. Three warehouses on the property were converted into large apartments, the TS offices, gym, and bunk rooms. There is also an obstacle course, a Main Street shooting gallery, a helicopter pad, and more features necessary for training and missions.
In addition to the security business, there is a fourth warehouse that now houses an elite BDSM club, co-owned by Devon, Ian, and their cousin, Mitch Sawyer, who is the manager. A lot of time and money has gone into making The Covenant the most sought after membership in the Tampa/St. Petersburg area and beyond. Members are thoroughly vetted before being granted access to the elegant club.
There are currently over fifty Doms who have been appointed Dungeon Masters (DMs), and they rotate two or three shifts each throughout the month. At least four DMs are on duty at all times at various posts in the pit, playrooms, and the new garden, with an additional one roaming around. Their job is to ensure the safety of all the submissives in the club. They step in if a sub uses their safeword and the Dom in the scene doesn’t hear or heed it, and make sure the equipment used in scenes isn’t harming the subs.
The Covenant’s security team takes care of everything else that isn’t scene-related, and provides safety for all members and are essentially the bouncers. With the recent addition of the garden, and more private, themed rooms, the owners have expanded their self-imposed limit of 350 members. The fire marshal had approved them for 500 when the warehouse-turned-kink club first opened, but the cousins had intentionally kept that number down to maintain an elite status. Now with more room, they are increasing the membership to 500, still under the new maximum occupancy of 720.
Between Trident Security and The Covenant there’s plenty of romance, suspense, and steamy encounters. Come meet the Sexy Six-Pack, their friends, family, and teammates.

Note from TL & Michele
Dear Readers,
Well, here we are. The end of the Nieto Cartel storyline. Michele and I are extremely proud of the story we have written, and we think you’re going to enjoy getting to know Duncan. There are some things you should know about this book though. First, the majority of Blind Justice takes place inside Club X, which means, everything is Safe, Sane, and Consensual. Two, there is a twist about Enzo and Bella, we hope you enjoy it. Third, there is some violence in the book, some of it graphic. So, this is your healthy reminder, it is safe to read between your fingers. (hehe)
Now that this arch is finished, there is only one more story for us to write—what kind of writers would we be without taking out Pueblo and Los Trios—Calvin’s book will be released probably next year, as our schedule is pretty full for the remainder of 2020. But, you should know Calvin’s story is going to blow everyone away—maybe literally. (hehe) Also, if you’re curious and would like to find out how Bex’s story turns out, her book will be available soon. (We have something special planned for her too.)
We would also like to take a moment to thank Samantha for allowing us to join her world and explore her characters. We hope we did Paul and Mistress Trixie justice.
To our editor Kat, who worked tirelessly to make sure our book was amazing, thank you so much.
To our families, another thank you for being patient and understanding while Michele and I toiled over this series.
So, until next time, keep reading!
