The Dungeon Fantasy Club

  He could tell she was on the verge of coming from his attentions but he drew it out, rasping his fingers over her clit, driving her higher with every sure stroke. When the tiny nub stood out at attention, he pinched it between his thumb and forefinger, rubbing it profusely. Lucy's breath caught as her body shuddered with her climax. Her stunned moan filled the room.

  Moisture slicked her labia, inviting his mouth, and he descended. Jesse growled at her honeyed taste. He sucked her clit into his mouth with a moan. Tonguing and tweaking the tight bud, he slid two fingers into the tight quivering heat of her pussy. Lucy bowed up off the bed at the intensity of her pleasure but he held her down. Stroking her with his tongue, running it through her nether lips, over the hood, and again sucking her tight, engorged clit into his mouth as his fingers thrust in and out of her channel.

  Lucy was writhing underneath his touch. Her moans grew louder and longer with the force of her arousal but he never stopped his pace. He wanted to take her over the edge. And so he did, bringing her up to a precipice of desire and reveling in the tight clenching of her pussy around his fingers as she came again.

  He never relented, enjoying his turn in the driver's seat as he brought her to orgasm again and again with his mouth and hands. Lucy's body trembled and writhed uncontrollably. Her body was in complete surrender under his hands and it was headier than any fine wine.

  By her fourth orgasm, Jesse knew he could wait no longer to be inside her. He sat back on his haunches and sheathed his swollen cock in a condom. Then he maneuvered and positioned himself over her, lining his cock up at the entrance to her slick pussy.

  Her eyes were closed and he felt her stiffen beneath him as he positioned himself on top of her.

  "Lucy, open your eyes," he commanded.

  When she complied, he said, "Don't close your eyes, keep them on me at all times—that way you don't forget that it's me and know that I will never harm you. And if it gets to be too much, use your safeword, minx."

  Tears filled her eyes, and she swallowed a shuddering breath. "Yes, Sir."

  He caressed her cheek as he pressed his erection inside her slick folds, not stopping until his balls were up against her ass. He kissed her, staying still with them fully joined, allowing her to adjust to the feel of him embedded this way.

  Then he lifted his head and studied her as he began to move inside her. He set the pace to slow languorous strokes, watching the interplay of emotions cross her face. As much as he wanted to pound and hammer his cock inside her, this time, she needed his control and strength. She needed to know what it was when a man made love to a woman. That she shouldn't fear the intimacy between them.

  He undid the Velcro straps holding her wrists in place and groaned at the feel of her hands sliding down his back to cup his ass. And then he did precisely that; he made love to her slowly, feeling each sure stroke, watching the fear in her eyes dwindle and her eyes fill with tears as the horror of her early years was replaced with love.

  Over and over, he embedded himself in the tight clasp of her pussy, reveling in the feel of her body quaking and trembling beneath him. His own body was drawn taut as his climax neared.

  He held her gaze and watched her eyes take on that far off look as her climax swept over and through her system. He thrust more rapidly, feeling his balls tighten, and with a final plunge, his body imploded as he came, his cock jerking inside her quivering warmth, setting off another round of ripples in her body.

  When his body ceased its tremors, he held her face between his hands, wiping the lingering tears from her beautiful cheeks.

  "I love you, minx," he said, and watched a fresh bout of moisture fill her blue eyes.

  "I love you too, Jesse."

  His heart expanded inside his chest, and he felt moisture at the corner of his own eyes. Before he became too maudlin, he took her lips in a kiss of possession.

  He removed her feet from the restraints, pulling her with him as he lay on his side, shifting her close. He couldn't seem to stop touching her, caressing his hand over the supple lines of her back. Although, it seemed, the feeling was mutual. They lay there, kissing and holding each other for a time, lost in the afterglow.

  "Thank you for that, Jesse. I never thought I could be with a man that way, but you made it possible, and if you need me to submit to be whole again, I will do it. But I don't know if I can do it all the time."

  "Let me stop you right there, minx. True, I enjoyed dominating you a bit for a change, but that doesn't mean I don't want to let you be in the driver's seat most of the time. I tend to like it when you paddle my ass." He wiggled his brows and got a deep throated chuckle.

  "So you want me to paddle your ass, huh?"

  "As often as you'd like, Mistress," he said truthfully. "I love you, Lucy. I have from the first moment. My life is not in the greatest shape, but I have plans. One of them includes you. How do you feel about that?"

  "I live in California."

  "I'm aware. Declan has offered me a position at one of his upstarts, working on green technology for vehicles. It's in San Bernardino. I haven't accepted yet because I didn't know that I wanted to be in Cali if I couldn't have you."

  "So you want to be my sub, full time?"

  "As long as we can switch from time to time, yes, I think we can make it work. What do you say?"

  "So are we going to draw straws for who is dominating whom?" Lucy quirked a saucy brow. It was the same look she'd dared him with at the pool at Mullardoch Manor, the one he could never resist even if he tried.

  "We can. Or we can just see who needs it more."

  "You aren't concerned at all that we will fight over whose turn it might be?"

  He shrugged his shoulders. "I didn't say that there wouldn't be fireworks, love, but I think it's well worth the ride. What do you say, be my Domme and sometime sub? I dare ya."

  A look of consternation flitted over her face as she leaned in close, nipped his bottom lip, and said, "Shut up and drive."

  He laughed at her brazen comeback. Only his Lucy would issue a dare like that.

  "With pleasure." He captured her lips for a drugging, soul shattering kiss, knowing that, with Lucy, he was in for the ride of his life.

  Chapter 1

  Failure shrouded her every footstep.

  The weight of it. The inevitability of being exposed as a fraud. That, when it came down to it, Elise didn't measure up. It was unavoidable. What should have been the trip of a lifetime was instead a last ditch effort on Elise's part to keep her fledgling company afloat. When the review of her upcoming spring bridal dress line hit the stands in two weeks, Elise's company, Bridal Reflections, already struggling and on life support, would be finished. The premiere fashion critic, Vicki Shaw, had all but eviscerated Elise's latest line with her critique.

  Elise wouldn't even know about
the horrid review if it weren't for the fact that Miss Shaw delighted in tanking designers' careers, and had emailed her a copy of her review that would appear in the latest Bridal Designs Magazine—January issue. Elise had two weeks before the bottom fell out in her life. Two weeks before everything she'd scrimped, saved, and bled for came to a grinding halt. Two weeks before she'd have to decide whether staying in New York was the right move on her part, or whether she'd have to leave a city she'd come to consider her home. To go where, she had no clue, back to her folks' place in Kentucky, perhaps.

  She cringed at the thought.

  There was no guidebook for how she should handle this situation. If she moved back home to Kentucky—her stomach did a loop-the-loop at the mere thought of that—her overhead costs would shrink considerably, but she would no longer be on top of the pulse of the fashion industry. There'd be other costs she'd incur for shipping her fabric and supplies a third of the way across the country instead of across the city, but after this review, she'd be lucky to have her line picked up by a department store, let alone any bridal shop.

  Oh, she smiled and put on a brave face, like she was doing now with the devilishly handsome butler, Jared, who had been sent to retrieve her at the Inverness airport. The man made her think of Braveheart with his brawny, testosterone-laden build. It made her wonder what he looked like in a kilt.

  Her latest client, the billionaire mogul, Declan McDougal, had sent his private jet to fetch her in New York. She had been hired to design the perfect custom wedding gown for his fiancée Zoey. With her company on the line, Elise knew that if she made one wrong move on her part with the McDougal wedding gown, she was toast. There would be no coming back from it, no chance of resurrecting her career. Which was already hooked up to life support.

  Elise mumbled her thanks to Jared as he loaded her entourage of supplies into a van.

  "What's in all these bags?" Jared huffed as he loaded up box after box, trunks that were stuffed to the brim and quite heavy. She prayed it would all fit. If she needed to, she'd wait with any remaining boxes if he had to cart it to the manor in shifts.

  "Dress material." Her forced grin felt sharp upon her face, with her lips stretched almost to the point of cracking. Even to herself, her smile seemed brittle and far too forced. But she couldn't help it. Even faking it the way she was now, she couldn't seem to feel the excitement that should be there at the chance to design the wedding gown for such a mogul. This was the opportunity of a lifetime her best friend, Kara Lowe, had helped to engineer. Most people would be overjoyed at the chance, whereas all she could seem to drum up was a mild excitement. Hell, the way the butler looked, she should be down on her knees and thanking whatever god would listen for such a fine specimen of manhood being at her disposal. Granted, Kara had given Elise the scoop on the manor, the butler, and even the BDSM club located in the bowels of the place. If she weren't so stressed, she might actually be enjoying herself.

  Instead, she just felt dead inside, as though nothing and no one really fazed her. Elise had been working eighty plus hours a week for more than three years. Already suffering from major burnout, and then to have all her efforts and sacrifices boil down to a dismal failure, she had no words, no thoughts, other than despair. It had actually hurt, a sharp stabbing pain in her chest, to see Kara completely blissed out with her two men. And it made Elise feel like a horrible friend that she couldn't do more than pretend to be happy for her, when everything in Elise's life seemed to be imploding.

  Jared, bless the man, instead of leaving her at the airport with the remainder of her boxes—which weren't going to fit inside the van no matter how much rearranging he did—took it upon himself to hire an extra cab to cart all of her boxes to the manor house. When the van and cab were stuffed to the brim with her boxes and luggage, Elise grudgingly climbed shotgun into the cab with a small sigh. At least she wouldn't have to make more than small talk with the cab driver. She had a feeling the butler would have wanted more engagement from her, and this small escape was a luxury. This way, she could use the next hour to prepare herself for the manor and her first face-to-face meeting with Zoey Mills and Declan McDougal.

  In a market fraught with competition, Elise had held her own, even being crowned 'a designer to watch' in the first year of business when she'd begun her company three years ago. Elise loved creating unique wedding gowns. She was good at it, too. She knew that. So did the vast majority of her clients. Everything had been sailing along smoothly; she'd been considering expanding and taking on help to meet the increasing demands for her work. And that was when life had hit her with a double whammy.

  Last February, Elise had been hired to create a gown for one of Manhattan's elite; one Mindy Stone, when Elise and the bridezilla, who Elise was convinced had been spawned in the fiery pits of some hell dimension, had run into major creative differences. Elise refused to design the gaudy trash the bride had wanted. After multiple designs and a partial refund they parted ways, but it had not ended there, as it should have. The bridezilla had set out on a vitriolic campaign to smear Elise's reputation. And it had worked.

  Normally, Elise was made of stauncher stuff; in this industry, if you didn't have a gut full of iron, you were doomed from the start. However, thanks to Miss Stone's revenge crusade, Elise had begun losing clients left and right. It had escalated in the last two months to the point where Elise had recently spoken with an attorney about the possibility of filing a defamation lawsuit against the socialite. But because it was all hearsay, with no concrete evidence to convict the bridezilla of any wrongdoing, it would be an uphill and costly legal battle she'd likely lose in the end.

  Elise was already struggling to pay her bills as it was because of the downturn in her sales. The terrifying part of it, which kept her from sleeping through the night—or getting any sleep at all for that matter if things didn't turn around fast—was that Elise had three months before she ran out of savings and would have to close up shop. This was why, when her best friend, Kara, had tossed her name into contention to design the billionaire mogul Declan McDougal's fiancée's gown, she had all but thrown herself at the project with every shred of creative genius still left in her fingers. Except Elise didn't know if it would be enough, if she would be enough, to make this one gown change the downward spiral of her fate.

  Elise popped another Tums in her mouth. She'd taken to chewing on them like some people chewed gum. It was the only way she could combat the roiling acidic nerves in her stomach that had taken up residence in her body. She'd lost weight because of it. So basically she was sleep deprived and starving, her hip bones were starting to show, and her clothes hung off of her to the point where her doctor had run some bloodwork to make sure she wasn't ill.

  She hadn't told Kara about the smear campaign. She was too embarrassed about it and had tried to hide it. Considering they swam in the same professional circles, hiding it from Kara had become a job in and of itself. Ridiculous, Elise knew. Kara was the best, and would do anything for her. But with everything going so well for Kara, it was harder to admit how messed up her own life had become. So she'd said nothing—although Elise realized her window of not discussing it with her best friend dwindled more each day. If Kara didn't hear about from her, likely Chase or Zeke would hear the industry chatter regarding the smear campaign before long. And then, when the review hit the stands in two weeks, it would be game over.

  Elise knew she probably should ask Kara for help, see if there were a few more brides she could nudge her way, but Elise hated not being able to hack it on her own by the strength of her hard work and convictions. Unfathomably stupid on her part, but where she came from, you relied on yourself and didn't take handouts. That was her father's work ethic speaking in her ear. As much as she'd tried to get away from her upbringing, it hounded her every step.

  Granted, if her Hail Mary Pass didn't work, Elise would find herself back on her folks' farm in Kentucky. She shuddered at the thought. She was an avowed city girl. Give her towering st
eel and concrete over cow and horse manure any day of the week. Most of her family couldn't understand why she'd lit out of her little Podunk town for college in the Big Apple. She had just always known she wanted more for her life. Not that there was anything wrong with country living, it just wasn't her first choice for where she wanted to live. Elise loved having conveniences at her fingertips. Driving thirty minutes or more just to go to the grocery store—or any other store, for that matter—was not her idea of a good time.

  Country living was not for Elise, never had been, as much as she'd tried to fit in during high school. She'd always had a curious mind and a fascination with people, add in a dash of insatiable wanderlust and voilà: a handcrafted urbanite.

  She loved that this trip added another stamp to her passport. After she'd graduated college, she'd had a three-month gap between the start of her internship and end of classes. Elise had used that time to backpack through much of Europe and never regretted it for a minute. She actually believed it was what made her so good at designing wedding gowns. Travel of any kind infused the brain with new ideas and ways of being. For her, the chance to stand inside the Basilica and in St. Peter's Square, meander through the Louvre, and walk along stone ramparts of a castle in Germany, had all expanded her scope and given her inspiration she'd been able to filter and channel into her designs.

  Scotland was lovely. Even as the land changed into its winter coat, the rolling bleak hills and vales suited her mood perfectly. What surprised her most was the lack of trees. There were some, but the land was more open field with copses of trees that had already shed their finery and now stood like eerie, dark-silhouetted skeletons waving their bare branches in the breeze.
