  “You’re close.”

  It wasn’t a question but she answered anyway. “Yes.”

  “I can tell by the way your pussy quivers around my cock.” He let go of one hand, reached for her thigh and drew it higher so that he could hook his elbow under the knee. “Are you ready to come?”

  He’d never made her beg before but she would. “Please, Simon!”

  “You want it hard and fast, don’t you, Tara?”

  Flames licked at her pussy. “Yes! Fuck me harder.”

  His cock plunged harder, deeper, faster. The drag along the embroidered bedspread as he slammed into her and inched her up the bed abraded the diminished yet tender welts on her ass and legs. The pain, added to the bumping against both her clit and G-spot, finally unleashed the inferno of orgasm.

  The walls of her cunt closed around his shaft. Her hips locked, muscles frozen even as hot lava poured through her veins. The swirling heat consumed her.

  “That’s it, ride it out.” He drove on, keeping her on the volcanic clouds. “Fuck, that’s good.”

  He pumped harder. Her head was most of the way under the pillow now, muffling her cries. He jerked it away, throwing it over the side of the bed. “I need to hear you.”

  She sobbed at the pleasure, so agonizingly sweet. “Simon.”

  “Yes, pet, I’m here. I’m with you.” Another driving lunge and he ground to a halt. “Ah fuck.”

  Hot jets of cum pulsed from his cock, spilling into her hungry cunt. She loved having him come inside her, giving her everything he had.

  They remained still, Simon braced on one elbow, his hand tight around her wrist, letting the last vestiges of orgasm claim them. His breathing slowed much faster than hers but his heart still pounded against her breast.

  All too soon, he rolled off her to the edge of the bed and rifled through his pants. “I have something for you.”

  Tara sat up and pulled the other pillow—the one he used when he slept over, which was most every night—against her chest. Not that she was shy, but rather she needed the separation between them. It was time.

  “Simon.” She laid a hand on his shoulder. “We…we need to talk.”

  He stopped his search and shifted to face her. God, his body was beautiful. He was beautiful—inside and out. How would she survive without him? She lifted her gaze to his wary one.

  “I have this terrible feeling tonight was…” She swallowed around the lump in her throat. “Was tonight goodbye?”

  His brows dove inward. “Why would you ask that?”

  “I don’t know.” Tara looked at the paint on her toenails, afraid to see the confirmation in his eyes. “Because our lovemaking seemed so desperate and you seemed…maybe a little emotional. And…”

  Simon took her hand and clasped it between his. “If I seem emotional, it’s because I’m happy.”

  “But when you left earlier, you wouldn’t look at me. You didn’t act like you were happy, and that ‘thank you’ sounded…” She swiped at the tear that slipped down her cheek. She’d wanted so badly to please him. “It sounded as if you hadn’t really enjoyed our session. You said you did but…”

  A week ago, she’d called him on his moodiness and the distance. He’d looked at her for a good long minute then grabbed her hand and hauled her out the door. They’d driven to his house, and though she’d been there several times, she’d never explored the basement. The door was always locked and there was no reason to go down. But he’d led her down the steps and through another locked door into his dungeon.

  She’d been shocked to say the least. He’d never once done anything during sex to make her think he was into BDSM. But he’d explained that he knew from the moment he met her he loved her and made the decision to give up the lifestyle. But as time passed, his need to dominate and administer pain ate at him.

  That night, he’d asked her to consider trying a session as his submissive. He’d given her the week to decide, never pressuring her except to say that if on Friday night at seven o’clock she was waiting naked in his dungeon, he’d give her more pleasure than she could endure. If not, he wasn’t sure their relationship could continue. That was pressure enough.

  Tara looked up at him. “Was I terrible then? I know I disobeyed you a few times, but—”

  “No, pet, you were wonderful tonight. I was extremely pleased with our session. But I had to get out of there. If I’d touched you again, I would have bent you over that table and fucked you until you couldn’t sit down for a week. You needed time to heal and I needed time to gain control enough to be around you.” He lifted her hand and kissed each knuckle. “But I also now know that even if what we did tonight is all you’ll ever allow, I’ll be content.” He lowered her hand. “You did like what we did, didn’t you?”

  Heat crept across her cheeks and down her neck. She ducked her head. “Yes, very much.”

  “Good.” He threaded her finger through something cold and metallic. “Then will you be mine?”

  Her eyes rounded as she took in the diamond solitaire he’d slipped on her ring finger. She snapped her gaze from the ring to his face. “Oh my god, Simon. Are you sure?” Please be sure.

  He grinned and the Simon she’d known until a month ago was back. “After tonight, yes.”

  “Then yes, I’ll be yours.” Heart pounding, she launched herself at him. She threw her arms around his neck and hugged him tight as tears streamed down her face. All week long, she thought she’d lost him for sure. And now…

  “Wait, there’s more.” He unwound her arms and set her back on her heels. He fished through his pants again and pulled out a diamond necklace that sparkled in the light. His whole expression changed, growing serious, guarded, controlled. “Tara, will you come to my dungeon willingly? Will you be my submissive?”

  Her tummy fluttered and her heart clenched, knowing this question was harder for him to ask than the other. “I’m not sure if I can do what we did tonight every day.” She smiled and rubbed her butt. “I’m a little sore. It’s a good sore though, and I could probably handle it once a week or so.”

  A sigh of relief and the smile on his face told her how much her answer meant. “That’s enough for me.”

  Seeing the happiness in his eyes gave her pleasure. Maybe she was a submissive by nature after all. She bowed her head and stared at the rock on her finger. “Then yes, I would be honored to be your sub.”

  He leaned forward and clasped the necklace behind her neck. The diamond choker fell across the hollow of her throat.

  “This,” he pointed to the ring, “is to tell the whole world you’re mine. But this,” he caressed the diamonds around her neck, “will tell my world you’re mine.” His fingers tipped her chin up and she met his gaze, all dark and hot. His expression was firm and commanding. Master was back. “And, Tara? You are mine.”

  Yes, she was his—both Simon’s and Master’s. And the fact made her giddy enough to tease him. “Does this mean Master will be joining us in the bedroom? Not just the dungeon?”

  One corner of his mouth turned up. “Would you like Master in the bedroom?”

  “Mmm, I rather like those black leather pants.”

  “Oh, you do, do you?” He grabbed her arms and yanked her over his lap. One hand pressed the middle of her back. The other slapped her bare ass. “How do you like that?”

  She squirmed against his hand, already feeling the heat seep into her ass. “Mmm, yes, Master, I like that very much.”
