“So I’m safe,” she said with an impish smile.
His responding smile was designed to be both intimate and resolute. “In your case I’m willing to make an exception.”
He dipped his head and claimed her lips in a deep, drugging kiss. Ellie’s response was immediate and gratifyingly desperate. Without hesitation she leaned more firmly into him and kissed him right back, like she never wanted to stop. That was just fine by Josh. Celibacy hadn’t been much of a problem these last months, not with everything else that was going on in his life. Suddenly he was desperately frustrated, the damned minx in his arms was more tempting than she had any right to be, and if he didn’t have her right here and now, he’d have good cause to seriously worry about his sanity.
Ellie appeared to have taken control of matters without his permission. She obviously had a lot to learn, since subs didn’t get to run the show. Still, she probably hadn’t been with a man with his tendencies before, so he cut her some slack and let her play with him. As though sensing his permission, she wound her arms around his neck and nibbled at his lower lip, sucking it into her mouth and releasing it again several times before seeking out his tongue and doing something similar with that. Jesus!
She’d given him the green light, and Josh was beyond holding back. He placed his hands on her ass and pulled her against his erection, grinding it into her stomach. She mumbled something incoherent and continued to play with his lower lip. Josh swept her from the floor, depositing her on the bed and his towel on the rug simultaneously. He watched her as she blinked several times and then took a good, uninhibited look at him. He fisted his cock, giving her a better view of the goods on offer, just in case she still harbored doubts.
“Now I’m starting to understand why Annabel was so upset to lose you,” she said in a sultry tone.
“Don’t spoil the moment by mentioning her. She’s come between us for the last time.”
“Yes, but her being here worries me. I don’t trust her.”
“Then you’re learning.” Josh sat beside her. “We’ll talk about that later. Right now I have other matters on my mind. Before we take this any further, I need to know if you’re sure.”
She didn’t hesitate. “Entirely sure.”
“Good.” Josh paused. “There’s something else you need to know. I’m a sexual Dominant.”
“What does that mean?”
“It means that I get to have complete control over everything we do and you obey me without question.” He ran a finger down the side of her face, barely touching her skin. Even so, her entire body jolted as though he’d struck her. “You ready for that?”
“Yes.” She moistened her lips. “Sounds intriguing. What do I have to do?”
He expected more questions, objections, conditions, or more talking at the very least. Instead, her eyes came alight with curiosity and Josh knew she was his for the taking.
“Stand in front of me,” he said in a tone of firm command as he leaned back on one elbow, watching her carefully.
She did so, looking at him expectantly. “What happens now?” she asked.
“Every action you take from now on will be done with the sole desire to please me.” Josh smiled at her bewildered expression. “By pleasing me, your own pleasure will be beyond your wildest expectations. Trust me on this.”
“If I didn’t trust you, I wouldn’t be here.”
“Lower your eyes when you speak to me and address me as ‘master’ or ‘sir.’”
Nervous laughter echoed around the room. “You’re kidding, right?”
“Never been more serious.”
“Okay.” Ellie got herself under control and gazed at the floor. “Yes, master.”
“Are you excited, Ellie?”
“My expectations are off the scale. It’s been a while.”
“Then we’d better make sure you enjoy yourself.” Even so, Josh had no intention of hurrying. “Take your sweatshirt off.”
She pulled it over her head, threw it on the floor, and remained where she was, now wearing just a thin undershirt with the outlines of a lacy bra visible beneath it. He could tell from the sight of her rock-hard nipples, the slight tremble in her arms, and the hitch in her breathing that she was as excited as he was. Ellie was a natural sub.
“Is your pussy leaking?” he asked, idly running his hand up and down his cock.
“Yes, master. My panties are soaked.” She glanced at him from beneath lowered lashes, a mixture of naked longing and bald curiosity forming the bedrock of her expression.
“Has anyone ever spanked that cute ass for you?”
“No. Wouldn’t that hurt?”
Josh laughed. “Baby, you have no idea what you’ve missed all the years. Sure, it hurts to start with.” He shrugged. “But there’s a very thin dividing line between pleasure and pain. I can teach you how to transmute the pain to pleasure, if you’ll let me.” He focused his gaze on her face. “Will you let me do that for you, sweet Ellie?”
“Yes.” She spoke the one word on a breathless whisper. “Yes, I think I’d like to broaden my horizons.”
Jesus, she’s killing me!
Josh had never trained a sub from scratch before. His sexual relationship with Annabel had involved vanilla sex only. He’d never felt the desire to dominate her, which ought to have warned him away from the relationship straight away. Nor had he thought to try to persuade her into a ménage with Rex. Not that Rex would have participated. He’d warned Josh off Annabel from day one, clearly seeing her for what she was. If she hadn’t gotten Josh thinking with his cock—something she was very capable of doing when a man took her fancy—he would have seen it, too.
Ellie was nothing like Annabel, or any other woman Josh had ever played with, come to that. He had feelings for her that transcended the bedroom. Damn it, he’d been quite happy getting on with things at the Lodge with no women to complicate matters. Since Ellie’s arrival he hadn’t been able to think of anything except her and had been in a permanent state of sexual arousal. He cared about her very much, which made it doubly thrilling that she was so ready to experiment. Perhaps he’d subconsciously recognized that trait in her the first time they met, accounting for his fascination with her. He and Rex had discussed the possibility of her being a player, and his buddy was adamant that she’d get wholeheartedly into the life, if properly indoctrinated. Seemed he was right about that, just like he was right about so many other things.
“Unfasten your jeans and step out of them.” She did as he asked, clumsy in her haste to comply. “Slowly.” Josh raised a cautionary hand. “Keep me waiting, sweetheart. There’s no rush.”
But slowing down didn’t appear to be on her agenda. She shed her jeans with athletic agility, pausing when she was down to a white thong. With downcast eyes she clasped her hands across her pussy and waited to be told what to do next, a smile tugging at the corners of her mouth. Christ, she’s a quick study!
“You look awfully warm in that undershirt. Perhaps that ought to go, too.”
She pulled it over her head and reassumed her submissive stance. Her bra matched her panties—plain white with that lacy edge he’d detected earlier. He had no idea functional white underwear could be quite such a turn-on. Presumably much depended upon the body modeling it. Hers was even better than he’d spent an unhealthy amount of time imagining it to be. Her tits, while smaller than he would have liked, appeared firm and pert. The nipples were large, the areolas a deep enough shade of pink to stand out even through the fabric of her bra. Josh moistened his lips and his erection twitched, a painful reminder that it was overdue for action.
“What’s wrong?” she asked nervously when he continued to stare at her but didn’t speak. “You’re making me nervous. The way your eyes smolder when you look at me is kind of unsettling.”
Josh roared with laughter. It wasn’t only his eyes that were smoldering. “I’d thought you’d be used to men looking upon you appreciatively.”
“No one’s ever looked at
me quite the way you do.”
“Good!” Josh paused, wondering how far he dared to push her this first time. He wanted to do so much but was mindful of the fact that she was new to these games. “Touch your tits for me,” he ordered softly.
He imagined she might protest, but she lifted her hands without hesitation, molding her flesh from the outside, pushing her breasts together until the nipples almost touched. She kept glancing up at him from beneath lowered lashes all the time she touched herself, almost as though she knew how profoundly it affected him. Then she emitted a soft groan, threw her head back, closed her eyes, and pinched her nipples. For the first time since adolescence, Josh thought he might lose control and come then and there. She was killing him! Her pleasure wasn’t feigned, and he could see that she was lost in an erotic daze of her own making, heightened by the fact that he was watching her with such open appreciation. Already it appeared that Ms. Kirkwood knew who really held control in such situations. That knowledge gave her the courage to follow her instincts.
“Pull them out the top of your bra for me.”
Ellie opened her eyes. “Don’t you want me to take the bra off?”
“That comment ought to earn you a spanking.”
She blinked in confusion. “Why?”
“A well-trained sub never makes suggestions. She waits for her master to tell her what she’s required to do.”
“Sorry, master.”
“Do as I ask, Ellie.”
Her hands delved into the cups of her bra, and Josh was rewarded by his first unfettered sight of her nipples. He sucked in a deep breath, expelling it again in the form of a low, appreciative whistle.
“Pinch the nipples.”
She did so, her eyes fixed on his face all the while.
“Lower your eyes, don’t look at me.” She did so. “Now, how does it feel?”
“Very erotic, because I’m doing it for you.”
“And I’m loving what I see. Now come over here.”
As soon as she reached the bed, he pulled her onto his lap and resumed control. He released the clasp on her bra and her breasts fell into his waiting hands when she shook the garment from her shoulders. He touched her softly, almost reverently, which surprised him. Josh wasn’t big on gentle, but he went with his instincts since somehow gentle seemed fitting. Ellie wiggled into a more comfortable position on his lap, inflicting further torture on his already-impatient erection. Now that he’d touched them, he had reason to amend his opinion about the size of her breasts. They were bigger than he’d realized and filled his hands very nicely indeed. He bent his head and suckled on a solid nipple. Ellie groaned and attempted to push herself more firmly into his mouth. He tapped her thigh, and she immediately stopped moving.
“Let me do my work,” he said, briefly lifting his mouth from her breast.
“You do it a little too well.”
Josh chuckled. “Glad you approve. Now, are you sure you’re ready to try spanking?”
“Absolutely.”
“Okay. Just remember what I told you earlier. A bit like love and hate, the division between pleasure and pain is thin enough to be opaque, especially when the subject is sexually aroused.” Josh canted his head and smiled at her. “I take it you are aroused.”
She rolled her eyes, like it was a stupid question. “And then some.”
“Just checking. Okay, I’m going to bring the flat of my hand down on your sweet ass, and it’ll sting. Go with that stinging, absorb it into your sensitized cells, and wait. Then tell me how it feels.” He lifted her off his lap and placed her back over it, facedown. He pulled her sodden thong away from her body and down her legs. “Comfortable?” Her curtain of hair bobbed up and down, which he took to be an affirmative. “Just remember, any time you want to stop this, you have but to say the word.”
“I don’t want you to stop, I want you to start,” said an aggrieved voice from beneath all that hair.
“Patience, little one.”
Josh bent his head and ran his tongue slowly across the globes of her ass. She shivered but remained silent. Taking that as a good sign, he gently nipped at the soft flesh. This time she moaned—protractedly—but not, he sensed, because he’d hurt her. He lifted his hand and gently applied it to her rear. An indistinguishable sound slipped past her lips.
“All right?”
“Yes. You’re right, it tingles.”
“I think we can do a little better than mere tingling.”
This time when he brought his hand down, the other one crept beneath her and agitated her clit. She cried out, and Josh guessed that she’d barely felt the slap above the sensations he was busy generating in her pussy.
“Pleasure and pain,” he said in a gravelly whisper. “Which is which?”
He increased the strength and pace of his spanking when he felt assured she was enjoying it. He also introduced a couple of fingers into her slick vagina, and Ellie rode them like a drowning man desperate not to go under. Except that Ellie did want to drown in a sea of pleasure, and Josh could tell she was close to losing patience. He thought it unwise to test her too sternly this first time around and so abandoned the spanking and righted her on his lap.
“You are supposed to thank me for chastising you.”
She giggled. “Thank you, master.”
Josh took a moment to study her and make sure she was as happy with proceedings as his instincts implied. He also got his first view of her naked pussy. It was covered with a thin layer of curling black pubic hair. She obviously shaved it but hadn’t done so for a few days. Josh rather liked it the way it was.
“Lay on the bed,” he said. “Can I shackle your hands?”
“Why?”
“So that you can’t use them,” he said. “Anticipation is half the fun.”
“But I’d be at your complete mercy.”
“Don’t you trust me?”
“Yes.” She nodded. “Yes, I do trust you, absolutely.”
“Then you’ll allow it?”
“Yes.”
Josh pecked her chastely on the cheek. “Don’t go away.”
He delved into his box of tricks, housed in a drawer beneath his bed, and came up with fluffy restraints that swiveled.
“Hands above your head, sweetheart.” He shackled her hands and then produced a blindfold. “If you can’t touch or see,” he explained, “your other senses will be greatly enhanced.”
“They feel pretty enhanced already,” she said, making no further objection when he placed the blindfold over her eyes.
“Hardly. To coin a phrase, you ain’t felt nothing yet. Anticipation is the key.”
When she could no longer see what he intended to do, Josh brought a slim vibrator into play. Instead of inserting it in her cunt, he turned it on to a low setting and ran it so gently over her body that she probably wondered what he was touching her with. As it lingered over her nipples, she tensed and then expelled a frustrated sigh. Tantalizing her with the vibrator on one side, he applied his lips to her other nipple and sucked it deep into his mouth, nipping gently at the solid peak. This time she reacted by lifting her hips, as though that would force her breasts further into his mouth. Josh knew that wasn’t what she really wanted. She was becoming increasingly desperate for him to give attention to her sodden pussy. So far he’d only touched it when he spanked her, and he intended for it to remain that way for the time being. This was simply too good to be rushed.
Josh moved the vibrator teasingly across Ellie’s flat stomach and at the same time blew gently on her pubic bone. She screamed.
“I need to come, Josh.” She rubbed her thighs together and twisted what he could see of her features into an agonized scowl. “I’m going crazy here.”
He tapped her outer thighs gently and they immediately parted. “You get to come only when I say you can.”
She made a sound that was a cross between a moan and a giggle. “It was worth a try.”
Josh pushed her legs wider apart and lowered his hea
d. With provoking intent to discover her limits, he sucked on the lips of her pussy, drinking in her freely flowing juices as the tip of his tongue found her clit. It was too much for her, and she thrust her hips upward, screaming his name.
“Josh, I can’t hold it. Shit, I’m gonna—”
Further words became superfluous as she bucked her hips against his mouth and climaxed into it. He sucked the orgasm out of her, pleased to discover that she was uninhibited about her needs. Her body continued to spasm for some time after he removed his lips from her pussy, and a specious smile graced her lips.
“Sorry,” she said in a small voice. “You pushed me too far.”
“I got that part,” he said, grinning inanely. “Now it’s my turn.”
He briefly considered getting her to suck him for a while but dismissed the idea. He’d been told many times that he had iron control in such situations, but right now Ellie had got him in such a state that he wasn’t prepared to put that theory to the test. He reached for a condom, tore the packet open with his teeth, and rolled it down his length. Then he maneuvered into a position above her, supporting his weight on his elbows. The tip of his prick nudged at her cunt, and once again her mobile hips rose up to offer him ingress. He no longer had sufficient control over his own reactions to chastise her for hers.
“Wrap your legs around my waist, honey,” he said gruffly.
As soon as she had done so, he sank into her, and they sighed with shared pleasure. He was big and thick, and her cunt was so goddamned tight that he almost lost it then and there, before he’d even gotten all the way in. How gauche would that seem? She closed about him, welcoming him inside like they’d performed this dance a thousand times before.
“You feel that, babe?” he asked breathlessly. “It’s just amazing.”
“Yes, I feel it. You’re splitting me in two.”
“I’m hurting you?” He made to withdraw, but her legs tightened around his waist and kept him in place.
