Chapter Two

One of the other reasons he liked coming to Nocturne was that since the new owners took over three months ago, his ability to see life and death disappeared. Chase would find it odd and want to investigate if it didn't enjoy the reprieve from knowing when someone would die. Chase wondered if it had something to do with the odd-looking runes the new owners added to the establishment.

Besides that, he liked the 1920s ambiance, with a tiny touch of modernity, at the Nocturne. Some of the previous owner's antique furniture was replaced by standing and sitting, spanking, and bondage benches that were currently being used. Shibari ropes of all colors and sizes did not seem out of place or take away from the mood and were displayed on the walls.
