Excerpt
Rated R
“Do you want to come, pet?” James’ voice was playful, sated
from his orgasm and the act of punishment, but she was still twisted inside.
“If I’m forgiven, yes, Master, please?” she begged, trying
to move beneath him, but he caught her hip to hold her still.
“You took your punishment, so of course you’re forgiven,
but… I don’t know if
I’m ready to let you come yet.” Lifting himself away from
her, James grinned in that charmingly mischievous way, her already soaked pussy
growing slick.
“I’m going to die,” she groaned dramatically, laid out on
the floor in front of him as he stood, but he only laughed.
“Get up, pet. I want to touch you.”
With that temptation she almost jumped off the floor, trying
not to sound too desperate. “Where would
you like me, Master?”
“On the bed like I asked.” James smiled, tugging the bedding
back to fold it at the bottom, leaving a clean, white expanse.
“Yes, Master.” Biting back the grin she crawled onto the bed
and knelt, but he only tilted his head, gaze flowing over her curves.
“Lay down for me and spread your legs. Arms up.” James had
barely finished the command before he turned away, expecting her to obey as he
moved to a chair near the curtained windows — and, of course, she did. When he
returned he dumped an armful of rope and leather cuffs onto the bedding between
her feet. “What did I promise you earlier today, pet?”
As he attached the first cuff around one ankle she tried to
sort through the chaos of her mind to remember his words. “You promised to fuck
me. Hard.”
“Oh, you’re right. I did.” James grinned as he lifted a
piece of rope, tying it off to the cuff before pulling her ankle to the edge of
the bed. “After what, though? There was a caveat.”
Thalia whined, dropping her head. “You promised to fuck me after you made me beg, and scream, and
plead. But I have, Master!”
He finished tying off one ankle, and started on the next
with a devious grin on his lips. “Punishments don’t count in play, pet. You
know that.” The sharp jerk of the rope made her groan as she propped herself on
her elbows.
“I want you! Please?”
There was no shame in her desperate tone, even as he made her lay back against
the bed again, his strong grip pulling one wrist towards the headboard,
wrapping the soft leather cuff tight.
“What happens when you get bossy?” James smirked at her,
glancing up occasionally as he crouched to tie the rope to the bed frame.
“You make me wait longer, Master.” It took more self-control
than she thought she had in the moment, but she managed to avoid rolling her
eyes.
“That’s right, pet. So, will you be a good girl and be
patient for me?” He asked as he walked around the end of the bed, abs shifting
with each step, and she pulled her bottom lip between her teeth as he watched
her in return. Gaze hungry, an amused expression on his face, but she could
tell he was thinking.
Plotting.
“I promise I’ll behave.”
The low chuckle as he bound her other wrist to the bed spoke
volumes about what he thought of her answer. “Tell me, are you wet?”
“Yes, Master.” The exasperation fled her voice
as his fingers brushed down her stomach, and when his fingers dipped between
her thighs she almost shouted in relief. He traced her pussy, dragging her
wetness to her clit to start slow, purposeful circles that were just enough to
amplify the tension inside her.
“You are wet,
pet.” Moving his hand lower he gently slid two fingers inside her, stretching
her, bucking her hips to seek just a little more friction, but it did nothing.
He was torturously gentle, his thumb brushing over her clit, back and forth,
teasing passes that had her thighs twitching.
Groaning in frustration she jerked against her wrist cuffs,
looking up at him in desperation. When he smiled, she let out a little scream
and kicked her heels into the bed. “Master!”
“Oh, pet, no patience at all.” James pulled his fingers from
her and tsk’d. “Is it so terrible to
have me enjoy each and every twitch of your body? Every little sound you make
when you’re so wet and wanting?” Wandering to the chair in the corner, leaving
her bereft of his touch, his voice had her squirming on the bed.
Wrists twisting in the cuffs she tried to think clearly
through the haze of the arousal, through the dull ache of the welts across her
ass. “I just want you. Please?”
“You already had me in your throat, pet. You got to feel me,
to taste me…” Returning to her, he sat on the edge of the bed and traced the
outside of her leg. “Was that not enough?”
The idea that he might edge her the entire night made her
whine low in her chest, gritting her teeth as she fought the pathetic stream of
pleas she wanted to utter. Instead, she managed a simple, “Thank you, Master.
For letting me taste you.”
“Such a good girl.” Chuckling, James leaned closer, almost
kissing her, and her lips parted in expectation, but he spoke instead. “Will
you continue to be a good girl for me?”
“What do you want me to do, Master?” She almost didn’t
finish the question before he kissed her, his fingers delving between her
thighs to roll against her clit, sending her hips into jerking pulses as she
sought oblivion. He continued to rub her as he broke the kiss, his breath
brushing over her lips.
“I want you to obey me, and not come until I give you permission. Understand the rules, pet?”
James’ pupils had dilated again, that thin ring of dark green beckoning her to
the very edge of her sanity as heat coiled tight between her legs.
“Yes, Master. I understand.” It felt like damnation to speak
the words, but there was no other choice. She’d already disobeyed, twice, on today of all days, and this
was her chance at redemption. Yes, she was forgiven, but this was about proving
to herself that she could obey, that she could show some self-control.
Of course, that idea felt completely ridiculous when he made
a low sound in his chest and slid his fingers back inside her. James’ lips
closed over her nipple and she arched, moaning until he bit down and a brief
scream escaped her. “I love the sounds you make.”
“Master…” she sighed, trying to focus on the way he stroked
at her g-spot, toes curling as he applied a little more pressure and she
gasped, just in time for him to bite down once more. A zing of electric
tension, fireworks popping in her nerves, making her twitch, jerk against the
cuffs without even meaning to move.
Sweet agony.
