Ivy: The Ties That Bind (Auction Night Book 4)
Page 10
“And what about me?”
“Whether you call me Sir or Master is something we’ll discover down the road. One night is not enough time, but don’t worry. We have a year to decide.”
It is a year!
And that no longer frightens me. I’m excited. Giddy. I’m over the moon happy.
He cups my cheek and gives me a kiss which sends my heart soaring. I’m exactly where I want to be, and I’m with a man I trust to explore this brand-new world.
When he breaks off the kiss, his voice is low and husky. “A year to start, and hopefully many more. Are you ready to begin, little mouse?”
I fling my arms around his neck and laughter bubbles up in my throat.
“I do! I most definitely do, and Sir…”
The corners of his lips turn up into a grin.
“What?”
“I already know what kind of collar I want from my Master.”
“Is that so?”
I give a healthy nod. “I absolutely do.”
Edge walks with me outside, sheltering me from the world. I can’t wait to see the shock on my sister’s face when she sees my new boyfriend. Edge is pretty hot, and hands down ten times the man compared to any of her boyfriends. I don’t want her to know anything about what Edge and I share. This is something I want to keep all to myself, but I do want her to know I'm happy.
As for the man I intend to call Master, that is something uniquely mine. Looking up at him, I know he feels exactly the same.
The Ties that Bind couldn’t be a more appropriate name for the place which set me on a new and exciting path of self-discovery and love.

About the Author
ELLIE MASTERS is a multi-genre and best-selling author, writing the stories she loves to read. These are dark erotic tales. Or maybe, sweet contemporary stories. How about a romantic thriller to whet your appetite? Ellie writes it all. Want to read passionate poems and sensual secrets? She does that, too. Dip into the eclectic mind of Ellie Masters, spend time exploring the sensual realm where she breathes life into her characters and brings them from her mind to the page and into the heart of her readers every day.
Ellie Masters has been exploring the worlds of romance, dark erotica, science fiction, and fantasy by writing the stories she wants to read. When not writing, Ellie can be found outside, where her passion for all things outdoor reigns supreme: off-roading, riding ATVs, scuba diving, hiking, and breathing fresh air are top on her list.
She has lived all over the United States—east, west, north, south and central—but grew up under the Hawaiian sun. She’s also been privileged to have lived overseas, experiencing other cultures and making lifelong friends. Now, Ellie is proud to call herself a Southern transplant, learning to say y’all and “bless her heart” with the best of them. She lives with her beloved husband, two children who refuse to flee the nest, and four fur-babies; three cats who rule the household, and a dog who wants nothing other than for the cats to be his best friends. The cats have a different opinion regarding this matter.
Ellie’s favorite way to spend an evening is curled up on a couch, laptop in place, watching a fire, drinking a good wine, and bringing forth all the characters from her mind to the page and hopefully into the hearts of her readers.
