The Velvet Key - Dominique Moore

Everyone knows me as the owner of one of the city’s most prestigious art galleries. What no one knows is that the gallery is only the front door. Hidden beneath it is The Velvet Key, an invitation-only club so exclusive that its existence is treated like an urban legend. Billionaires, celebrities, politicians, royalty, and crime bosses all pass through its doors, not just for pleasure, but to negotiate deals, settle grudges, forge alliances, and disappear from the outside world for a few hours. My rules are absolute. No recordings. No real names. No violence. Break a rule once, and you never return. Break two... You leave with more than your invitation revoked. I’ve spent years making sure no one discovers that I own the club. To the world, I’m polished, untouchable, and impossible to read. Then one night, a mysterious new member arrives carrying an invitation that should no longer exist—one signed by the club’s original founder, a person who supposedly died years ago. They aren’t here to indulge. They’re here to expose whoever sits on the throne behind The Velvet Key. They thinks they are hunting me. They have no idea I invited them inside. And in my house... Everyone plays by my rules.
