Leaning against the closed door, Dominic waited for Josh to say something. This could turn into a real tense situation if he and the other man didn’t come to a quick mutual agreement before Kalinda’s punishment. The deal he’d offered Josh earlier hadn’t included anything more than spending some quality time with Kalinda in the hopes of showing the other man what he would be missing by not at least trying a ménage. They hadn’t bothered to discuss what their respective roles would be when dealing with Kalinda during a scene - and a scene was going to be the only obvious outcome of Kalinda’s earlier teasing. Well, we’re going to have to start somewhere.
“So how long are we going to let her stew?” Josh’s voice seemed rough. He shifted uncomfortably under Dominic’s stare.
“As long as it takes us to come to an agreement.” Dominic kept his voice firm. “I know you’re uncertain of my abilities as a Dom, especially when it comes to Kalinda but that is something that will come with a bit of time and understanding on both of our parts.”
Josh nodded. “Unlike you, I’ve never had a chance to see you in action with a sub - other than that brief display when I dropped you off. While she didn’t treat you as most submissives would treat their Dom, with Kalinda it’s hard to tell.”
Crossing his arms over his chest, Dominic nodded. “Exactly. She can be a handful at the best of times. But I’ve found she submits beautifully for the right person.”
A low growl of frustration escaped Josh. “I know - and that’s what pisses me off about the whole situation.”
Dominic nodded his understanding. “It’s only natural to want to keep her all to yourself, Josh. If I had the choice, I’d do the same, but what kind of Doms would we be if we didn’t address her needs?”
Josh stared at him thoughtfully. “Lonely ones?”
“Very lonely. No sub, especially one as spirited as ours, is going to stay if she’s not getting what she needs.”
Josh rubbed the back of his neck. “So you think this crazy ass idea of sharing her is going to be what she needs?”
Dominic nodded before replying. “Don’t knock it, until you’ve given it your best shot, mon ami. While I know it’s going to be a bit uncomfortable when we go in there at first, I need you to relax and simply enjoy the moment.”
“And what happens when I overstep my bounds? Honestly, she’s got me so worked up that I don’t know if I will be able to not push for more, Dominic. Perhaps, I should go…” The self doubt on the man’s face had Dominic wincing. Damn I wished I knew what actually happened between him and Kalinda. It’s time to act like the asshole.
“Don’t even think about running from this. I made a promise to my sub. I don’t know about you but I will not break it just because you are scared of what might or might not happen.” When Josh jerked upright and a scowl replaced his earlier look, Dominic softened his tone. “I realize that you’re uncertain, Josh. When we go in follow my lead. I’ll give you cues when to push and when to back off.”
Josh gritted his teeth. “I shouldn’t need them. She was mine!”
“I know she was but it’s been at least two years since you’ve had her under your flogger. You need to learn where her limits are now. What she experienced in…” Dominic’s voice trailed off when he saw the other man pale before he began to sway unsteadily on his feet. “Josh?”
“Fuck!” Josh sank onto the futon behind him before grabbing his head.. “I totally forgot about what happened at the Gilded Lily. I didn’t notice any scarring downstairs but with the lighting…how bad was it? Did it scar her emotionally?” The hoarseness of his voice had Dominic approaching him. Sitting down next to the other Dom, he sighed before meeting the other man’s eyes. He hadn’t wanted to go into this with Josh, but he couldn’t see any way out of it.
“Bad enough, Josh. If I hadn’t had my hands full with Kalinda, I would’ve beaten that fucking asshole until he wasn’t able to walk. It took her almost three weeks to recover from it physically - and damned if she didn’t try to go back just to prove she was able to handle being under the flogger again.”
Josh jerked as if struck. “You’ve got to be fucking kidding me. She tried to go back…I’d have beaten her ass for even thinking it, let alone doing it.”
Dominic set a reassuring hand on Josh’s shoulder. “Relax, I caught her before she could negotiate with the owner, but oh did she pay for it. It was only after I thoroughly warmed her ass, did I explain in no uncertain terms that she’d be coming to me in the future when she needed the feel of the flogger. She finally got the point.” The corner of his mouth kicked up. “I did get the immense pleasure of watching her squirm at work for several days afterwards.” When Josh’s eyebrows rose questioningly, Dominic leaned forward. “It’s hard to sit still when you’ve got a vibrating anal plug shoved up your ass. Especially when your sadistic Master is sitting not twenty feet away from your desk with the remote to that naughty plug waiting to catch you off guard.”
Josh choked and tried to keep his laughter down. “Oh hell, that’s just evil.”
“While I don’t break out the crop except for serious infractions, Josh, I do have my way of getting through to her.”
The other man stared at him thoughtfully. “And the flogger?”
Dominic knew exactly why the other man asked. Kalinda had a love affair with the device that simply wouldn’t quit. “That’s rarely used for punishment at all...” Dominic winked at him. “…because she enjoys it too much.”
“So tonight the flogger …”
“…will be getting plenty of use. While what happened earlier tonight did not break one of my hard rules, her teasing not only me but you, could end in nothing other than her being tortured by us in return. So what do you say? Shall we?” Dominic nodded towards the door before standing.
“After you!” Josh’s voice once more held the note of an in-control Dom.
* * * *
Kalinda quickly lowered her head when the door opened. She’d been trembling at the foot of the bed for nearly ten minutes. She’d kept time by sneaking peeks at the digital clock on the bedside table. If they had been in Dominic’s apartment in L.A. she never would’ve known. He had no clocks in his playroom. She couldn’t decide what was more torturous the idea of slowly watching the time tick by or not knowing.
“What kind of punishment did you earn tonight, slave?” Dominic’s hard voice sent gooseflesh rippling over her body. She swallowed and tried to concentrate on his words.
“Any punishment that Master desires to give this slave.”
“And if I told you that your punishment was to go to bed alone and unsatisfied?”
Kalinda’s breath caught in her throat before panic settled over her. She’d die if he didn’t let her come tonight. Only in the most severe of cases had he made her go to bed alone. “Please, Master! I’ll do anything you want!”
Dominic leaned over and brushed his mouth over her ear. “Including letting Josh punish you? You were a very naughty slave tonight when you teased him - especially when he has no slave of his own to slake his desires on.”
She whimpered but nodded. Even though it might bring back memories she’d rather keep buried, it was better than the alternative. A hiss of pain escaped her when he brought his palm down sharply on the bare flesh of her upper hip which was exposed between two of the nylon ropes.
“That’s not a proper answer, slave.”
She tried to catch her breath. “Yes, Master, if you wanted another to punish this slave, she would accept it.”
“Allow who to punish you, slave?” While she fumbled with the titles in her head, he leaned closer. “You may call him Sir for this scene.”
“Sir is allowed to punish this slave.” Her breath came out in a rush. Her flesh tingled with anticipation. Despite her fear of failure, she couldn’t wait to feel once more the stroke of Josh’s flogger against her skin.
“And why is he allowed to punish my slave, Kalinda?”
She bit her lip
before answering. “Because this slave acted impulsively by teasing him in Caelan’s playroom.”
“That’s right. I did promise you the next time you did, he would be allowed to punish you, didn’t I?”
“Yes, Master.” Her voice was barely audible.
“Well, Sir and I have discussed this at length. You shall receive five strokes with the flogger for each time you bared yourself in the playroom. Do you remember how many times you exposed this sexy little harness to both my eyes and Sir’s?”
Mentally she tried to remember how many times her brother had her lower or raise her dress. Was it five or six? She decided to go for the higher number.
“Six, Master.”
“That’s right, slave. Six times you teased us. So how many strokes is that?”
“Thirty…Master.” She wished now that Caelan would’ve had her do it ten times.
He seemed to pause for a moment before continuing. “But that doesn’t seem high enough to me for the amount of tormenting you did tonight. Does it to you, Sir Josh?”
“No. If she’d pulled this stunt when we were together, she would’ve easily earned fifty for such an infraction.” Josh’s voice came closer. She started to lift her head to verify his position when Dominic’s hand tightened in her hair.
“Did I tell you to move, slave?”
“No, Master. I’m sorry, Master.” She held her breath while waiting to see what he was going to do.
* * * *
“Such a pretty but defiant slave you have, Dominic.” Josh pushed off the wall before moving closer to Dominic and Kalinda.
Dominic rose from his crouched position. “That she is.” He moved around the foot of the bed and unzipped his bag. Taking out the flogger, several clamps, a tube of lubrication and a soft gel butt plug, he nodded towards Josh, indicating he wanted him to come closer. Stopping next to him, he glanced down at the items that Dominic had removed from the bag.
“See anything that strikes your fancy?” Dominic winked at him before nodding to the flogger. Reaching for the flogger, Josh barely grazed it before he picked up the plug. Testing its weight, he looked around for the remote control.
“Where is it?”
“In the drawer…” Dominic nodded to the bedside table on the far side of the bed. Josh rounded the bed to pull the drawer out. Grabbing the remote, he flicked it on. In his hand the plug vibrated to life. Ever since the other man had told him about using it on Kalinda, he’d been desperate to try it. They’d never gotten around to anal play during the short two months Kalinda and he had been together.
“Stand, slave.” Josh sat down on the edge of the bed to watch as Kalinda scrambled to her feet to stand with her shoulders back, her hands loose at her sides and her legs shoulder-width apart. Staring straight ahead she hadn’t focused on anything including Dominic. He watched as Dominic leaned forward to take one of her nipples between his lips. A surprised gasp was the only reaction she gave to the fact that he was suckling hard on her nipple. His own breathing increased when Dominic released one nipple to capture the other one.
Pressing a hand against his cock, Josh’s own mouth watered. How he wished he were the one over there sucking on those delicious nipples. Sliding from the bed, he strode over to get a closer look.
Dominic released his treat before looking over at Josh. He gave a quick grin before motioning him closer. “She always tries to fight me on this. She thinks if she ignores what I’m doing to her lovely little tits, I’ll leave them alone. Maybe between the two us, we can get a rise out of her?”
Josh nodded before he moved close enough to touch her. He mentally tried to prepare himself for the familiar zing of sexual pleasure he knew would race over him when his lips touched her flesh. A low growl escaped him as he clamped his lips around her already wet nipple.
* * * *
Kalinda tried to hold keep her gaze focused on the spot next to the door as two pairs of lips tormented her nipples. She’d almost succeeded when one of the men used the edge of his teeth to clamp over the nerve laden tip of her nipple. She arched towards the tormenting mouth. She tried to keep from threading her hands through Josh’s hair but failed miserably. The sadistic bastard remembered how she loved to have her nips tormented. He wasn’t above using his prior knowledge to drive her closer to the edge of her control.
“Damn, I’ve never seen that reaction before. What did you do, Sir Josh?”
Josh released her nipple with a sharp pop and grinned at the other man. “Teeth at the edge of her areola - if you clamp it hard with your teeth, she can climax from that alone.”
“Rat!” Kalinda closed her eyes and stiffened. She couldn’t believe she’d spoken without permission. Damn it, she was in for it now.
“Who said you could talk, slave?” Dominic’s voice was cold.
“No one, Master. It won’t happen again, Master.” She lowered her gaze.
“You’re right it won’t.” Dominic turned from her to rummage around in his bag of goodies before coming up with a red ball gag. “Open.” He pressed it against her mouth. In moments she was gagged. “Good, now the only sounds we’ll be able to hear are her muffled moans and pleas.” Dominic told Josh before giving Kalinda his attention once more. “Now what is your stop signal?”
Kalinda eyed the small stress ball on the bedside table. Dominic reached for it before handing it to her. She took it and dropped the ball on the floor. She was very aware of Josh watching her.
“That’s right, and your slow down signal?” She knelt, picked up the stress ball and rolled it between her fingers.
“Good.” Dominic’s eyes were warm with approval before they hardened. “Over the bed, slave.”
She nodded and bent over the footboard holding onto the stress ball with both hands. Letting her head rest on the bed she waited anxiously for the first blow to fall. When she felt the cool feel of the lubricant touch her tightly clenched portal, she moaned.
“What was that, slave? Protest or plea?” Josh’s voice was cool even as his thumb pushed through her puckered anus. The flare of pain had her moaning even louder into the gag even while she pressed back against his hand.
“I do believe that one was pleasure, Sir Josh.” Dominic’s voice came from her left.
“Such a naughty little sub. You know she never let me near her ass during the time we were together. I gather I have you to thank for that change?”
“Well, she was a bit leery of it the first time but I got her used to it. I’ve even made her wear her plug to work.”
Fire washed over her as his words evoked memories of the first time he’d slid a butt plug inside her virgin ass. Or the last time he’d made her wear her vibrating plug to work. The sadistic bastard had placed the vibration on random. He’d let her suffer all morning before he tracked her down at lunch to fuck her up against the wash room door with his hard hand muffling her screams of pleasure.
“Hmm, I’d have loved to been a fly on the wall when that happened.” Josh’s words would’ve jerked her out of her woolgathering if the sliding of the slippery supple plastic inside her ass hadn’t. She dropped her head between her arms as the last of the large butt plug disappeared inside of her.
“Damn, look at that.” Josh’s bemused voice barely reached her ears.
“Yeah! Now for the punishment.” Dominic turned away to fetch the flogger.
The first smack had her arching back towards him. Her breathing increased as her subtle rocking had the knot rasping against her clit. “No coming, slave.” Dominic’s harsh order had her stilling. Even as her ass lit up with fire she fought to keep her hips still. The coil inside of her wound tighter with each slap of the flogger against her ass. Mentally counting in her head she figured she was about half way through her punishment when a low buzz filled the room. Then the plug inside her ass flared to life. She jerked as if she’d been hit by lightning. She shook her head while squeezing the stress ball harder. She was so close to coming.
“What’s wrong, little subbie, c
an’t you handle it?” Josh’s voice was firm. She shrieked into her gag as he increased the frequency of the vibrations coming from her ass. She arched and thrashed her head as the climax dangled within reach. “You should’ve thought about this down in the playroom, Spitfire.”
She groaned deeply when he switched the plug off. Her climax slid out of her reach. The slaps of the flogger stopped too, leaving her at the edge but unable to do anything but suffer until they released her.
“Not bad, Sir Josh. You timed that perfectly. Her punishment is over, but I bet my little sub wants to come, doesn’t she, chérie?” Dominic’s voice was rough.
She nodded her head vigorously. She wanted to come in the worse way.
“On your knees.” Dominic’s command had her sliding to the floor, but she was stopped when he threw her up on the bed. “Knees!” Scrambling to obey, her ass on fire, the ropes still rubbing against all her sensitive bits, Kalinda’s only desire was to give herself over to the men. The rasp of zippers being lowered had her glancing over her shoulder. Dominic had unzipped his jeans. His hard cock, beaded with pre-cum, was framed by the open zipper. Her clit throbbed while she braced herself for the fucking she knew was going to come. The feel of his denim- covered thighs against her hot ass had her hissing against her gag. She desperately wanted it off especially when another loud rasp filled the room. She realized Josh had just unzipped his own pants. She squeezed the stress ball until she was sure it was going to pop out of her hands.
When he tugged out his own cock, Josh wrapped a hand around his cock to stroke it mere feet from her. Not only did she desperately want to touch it, she wanted to taste the flesh he was fondling.
