The Navy SEAL's Secret Baby: A Second Chance Romance

by LK Shaw

  He then led me to a chair tucked away in a corner and pulled me onto his lap, where I leaned my head on his shoulder as he held me until I began to relax. Neither of us spoke as he lightly kissed and stroked my hair away from my face.

  I felt movement, and seconds later, someone handed Marcus a bottle of water. He opened the cap and placed the bottle to my mouth, coaxing me to drink. After about ten minutes of comfortable silence, we stood, and Marcus led us to the bar while holding my hand.

  Chapter Sixteen

  Penny

  I sat on a bar stool while Marcus stood next to me, a protective arm wrapped around my waist while I nursed the single gin and tonic he’d allowed. I tried not to look out over the room, embarrassment still running through me. I hated being the center of attention, and after that display, I knew people were watching me. The liberties I’d allowed Marcus to take, especially in a room full of people, were completely out of character for me. I sat there contemplating how I let that happen when, out of nowhere, a tall, blond man with a military haircut approached us. I lifted my head as he spoke.

  “Marcus, my friend, so good to see you.” The man reached out to shake Marcus’ hand, his attention on me though.

  Marcus returned the handshake, his voice gruff as he ground out, “Donovan Jeffries, long time no see. How’s the trial going? Most importantly, where’s your sub of the month, or is it week? You go through subs like I go through underwear, and I can never keep up.”

  Donovan, a cheeky grin on his face, responded, “Oh, she’s around here somewhere, and the trial is going well. The defense is scrambling for some last minute eyewitness to testify. It’s a crapshoot for them, but I can’t fault them for trying. Really, though, it’s an open and shut case. But enough about boring work stuff. Why don’t you introduce me to this lovely vision you’ve been keeping from everyone.”

  Marcus released a sigh I struggled to interpret and introduced us. “Donovan, this is Penny. Penny, this is Master Donovan.” Donovan glanced at Marcus with a question in his eye. With a look of disgust, Marcus gave a short nod of his head. I shifted almost self-consciously as Donovan reached out to clasp my hand and bring it to his lips to kiss my knuckles, never once taking his regard off me. I didn’t know what to make of him, and I shifted uncomfortably, unused to the attention of such good looking men.

  “Enchanted, my dear. Tell me, what is a beautiful young woman like yourself doing with an ugly old man like Master Marcus here?” Donovan continued to hold my hand, caressing my knuckles with his thumb. The friction of his thumb felt good, and I shifted again, this time, not from embarrassment or discomfort. Instead, arousal had me squirming in my seat.

  I opened my mouth to respond, forgetting Marcus’ instruction that I wasn’t allowed to speak with anyone without his permission. Luckily, I was saved when he jumped in. “Penny is currently undergoing sub training, and this is her first visit to Club Eden. We had the pleasure of observing Master James and his flogger earlier. Penny enjoyed it immensely.” At his pronouncement, my cheeks heated with embarrassment again. I struggled to get my discomfiture under control.

  Donovan surveyed me, assessing everything, including Marcus’ arm around my waist. My blush deepened as he whistled his appreciation. “You have great taste in submissives, Marcus. Perhaps we can all get better acquainted later.”

  I turned my head toward Marcus as it sunk in exactly what Donovan meant by getting better acquainted. I stiffened under Marcus’ arm, and I visually pleaded with him to say no. Shock radiated off me, and the fact that Donovan kept his hold on my hand remained oblivious to me. Marcus took his time answering, and for a brief moment, I thought he would acquiesce. He didn’t even glance at me when he finally answered. “We’ll have to see how the evening progresses. She is only now beginning her training, and we’ll need to work out negotiations, including hard and soft limits.”

  I only slightly relaxed at his words. I’d barely gotten used to being touched by Marcus. Aroused or not, I definitely wasn’t ready for a threesome. Donovan let out an exaggerated sigh of disappointment at Marcus’ words. “Perhaps another time then.” He finally released my hand after another brief kiss on my knuckles.

  After Marcus and Donovan shook hands in farewell, Donovan turned and headed toward several women standing in a group on the other side of the room. Once he reached them, he singled out a brunette wearing a choker necklace, an underbust red corset with nothing underneath and a matching satin thong. He fisted the woman’s hair in his hands, pulled her head back, and slanted his mouth against hers. Their tongues dueled and tangled as they grinded against each other. My arousal increased a notch, and I fidgeted in my seat.

  Marcus leaned over and began rubbing a finger up and down my arm. “It’s exciting watching others, isn’t it? Come, let’s explore.” Without giving me a chance to reply, he reached down, laced our fingers, tugged me off the stool and walked away, pulling me along behind him. We ventured to the alcoves we’d bypassed earlier. I was fascinated with all the different things going on in each one. In the first, a woman laid on her back on a massage table, completely naked in a spread eagle position with her arms and legs tied to the legs of the table. A man stood next to her running a violet wand across her breasts. I heard the slight sing of the electrical current running through the wand. After she cried for more, he reached over and turned the dial on the open box sitting on a small table next to where she lay. I heard the increase in current as he moved the wand from her breasts to her crotch. Her back arched on the table as he reached his destination. The pleasure radiating off her was tangible.

  In another alcove, a man gave a demonstration on fire cupping. In awe, I stared. “What is that?” Marcus went on to explain, as I stood enthralled. The Dom swabbed the inside of glass cups, varying in size from a shot glass to a rocks glass, with ethyl alcohol. He then lit the alcohol inside on fire and placed the cups top down in random spots along the woman’s back.

  “If this is something you’d like to try, we will add it to your list of soft limits.” Absently, I nodded my head in agreement as I continued watching the show.

  Throughout the rest of the night, Marcus introduced me to several different subs and a few Doms. He made it a point to touch me at every opportunity, whether a slight brush across my breasts as he pointed something out or more obvious touches such as when he cupped and squeezed my ass. I sensed he did it to get me accustomed to his touch, to the feel of his hands caressing me at any given time.

  Right before midnight, Marcus escorted me back to the car. When we reached the passenger side, he pushed me up against the door. Before I even blinked, his lips crushed against mine. His tongue edged its way into my mouth, and he deepened the kiss, drinking me all in. It was the most erotic feeling ever. My tongue thrust against his in an imitation of what I wanted his cock to do to me. Marcus ground his erection against me. I almost orgasmed from the friction. As though he knew how close to the edge I stood, he broke off the kiss and laid his forehead against mine, our breathing heavy as we both sucked in air.

  “God, the things I want to do to you. I want to strip that dress off you, bend you over the front of this car, and pound into that pussy of yours. I want to fuck you so hard you’ll forget every man who has ever fucked you before.” He continued grinding against me, torturing us both in the process.

  “I want that too, Sir,” escaped my lips. “I want you to fuck me. I don’t know what you’ve done to me. You’re all I think about. It’s like you’ve cast a spell on me. I want to submit to you. I spend too much time trying to control everything around me, and it’s exhausting. I’m tired of always being strong and in control. I want someone to unburden me. To allow me to release everything.”

  Chapter Seventeen

  Penny

  Marcus drove us back to my house in silence. I wasn’t sure what he thought after my declaration. I, however, was relieved that I’d finally made my wishes known. I hated keeping my feelings bottled up inside, and I was tired of always being
in control. I wanted to give everything over to someone else. Actually, that wasn’t true. I wanted to give everything over to Marcus. He made me aware of myself like no one else. I didn’t want to fully analyze or dig too deeply into my feelings. It didn’t even matter that we barely knew each other. I only knew something about him made me trust him. Oddly, he made me feel safe. He lifted the weight off my shoulders by wrapping his arms around me. I was going to accept these feelings for now and see where they took me. I knew at some point I’d end up with a broken heart. I refused to think that far into the future. I planned on taking things as they came and worrying about my inevitable heartache later.

  We slowly pulled into my driveway, and Marcus shifted the car into park. He gripped the steering wheel, his knuckles white with tension, while we sat there with the car idling. After a minute of the continued silence, I thought he had changed his mind. “Well, thanks for the ride and for showing me the club. I had a nice night and learned a lot. I… I guess I’ll talk to you later.” As I reached for the door handle to let myself out, he grabbed my arm to stay the movement.

  “Where do you think you’re going?” he growled.

  “I was going inside. You hadn’t said anything so I assumed you were dropping me off.”

  “You think you can walk away after tonight? Not a chance, Sweetness. You’re mine. It’s taken all my willpower not to drag you out of this car and inside where I’d rip off all your clothes and fuck you three ways to Sunday. This is a lesson in control. And I’m the one in control. Fucking you is too easy. You could pick up any random guy and bring him home to fuck. That’s not what this is about. This is about learning your limits and building trust, which is important in any relationship.

  “You have to trust me to know your limits and your boundaries and to push you a little past where you’re comfortable each time. That’s what a good Dom does. He pushes you to places you didn’t know were possible. The reverse is true. I have to trust you to communicate your limits. That is what we need to discuss before we can go any further. I may push your soft limits, things you’re willing to try, and I have to trust that you’ll use your safe word if you need to. I explained safe words to you last night. You can’t be afraid to use yours. Don’t think that I’ll be upset or disappointed if you use it. In some relationships, green, yellow, and red are used. Green means you’re good with everything that is happening. Yellow means you need things to slow down. Red means that everything stops. You can use these, or you can pick your own word.”

  I listened intently to everything he said, almost overwhelmed. When I realized he was waiting for a reply, I shook off my temporary distraction. “I don’t want to try and remember a random word, so green, yellow, and red are okay with me.”

  Satisfied, he added, “We need to discuss your hard and soft limits. You don’t need to know them all tonight. What may be a soft limit may change to hard, and vice versa. We addressed some of them earlier at Eden like the violet wand and the fire cupping. I know the flogger turned you on, which, by the way, I can’t wait to use. I can picture taking a crop to that ass and marking it with stripes. I’ve been itching to redden that plump ass of yours for a week now. Speaking of asses, I’d love to see a plug stretch that tight asshole of yours. I want to watch as my cock thrusts in and out of that ass. Does that turn you on? Your breathing is getting shallower, and I can smell your arousal from here. That sounds like something we’ll be adding to your list of soft limits as well.”

  Anal sex definitely interested me, but for now, nervousness and fear overruled my interest. There was a huge difference between the small toys I’d experimented with and a cock in my ass.

  I mentally listed the things I read about or heard of that interested me and I wanted to try. I shook off my embarrassment and approached the conversation like a mature woman.

  “I’ve done some research, plus I’ve read a lot of BDSM books, which I know aren’t real life, but have still given me ideas. There are a lot things I’m curious about that I would consider trying. I’d like to see how nipple clamps feel, and as you already know from the club, the flogger did intrigue me. I’ve also wondered what a paddle, or erotic spanking, would feel like. Yes, I’ve had fantasies about anal sex and have experimented a little by myself.”

  When I thought about the man from the club tonight, Donovan, heat spread across my face. “I might also consider a threesome, with the right person, of course. I’m not sure how I feel about engaging sexually with another woman. I’d consider it. I am open to inviting another man. Like I said, I’d have to feel comfortable with that person. Other than that, I’m not sure what else I might be interested in. For now, I think I’ll settle for the few things I’ve mentioned to add to my list of soft limits. I reserve the right to add or subtract things from this list though, please.” Even though I wasn’t one hundred percent sure of my soft limits, I did, however, know that there were things I had absolutely no interest in. Luckily, in my research, I’d discovered a lot of different kinks that people were into.

  “I do have some hard limits. I draw the line at blood play, needles, golden showers, and scat. I also have no interest in humiliation or significant pain. I’m not a masochist. Off the top of my head those are the main ones.”

  It was obvious Marcus took mental notes. “Since I’m no sadist, I have no desire to cause you large amounts of pain, although you do need to realize with some pain comes pleasure. When you experience pain, it only makes the pleasure that much more intense. I’m more interested in the power exchange between a Dom and his submissive. You give me power by obeying my commands. It’s what turns me on. I can read your body signals and know when you need more. I want to share pleasure with you. Sometimes, that pleasure co-exists with pain. Do you understand?”

  I thought about what he was saying. In theory, I understood the push and pull between pleasure and pain. However, until I experienced it, I couldn’t truly comprehend how they complemented each other. “Yes, I think I understand. I’m willing to turn myself over to you. I want you to teach me what submission and giving up control truly means, Sir.”

  With that pronouncement, our relationship dynamic changed. Marcus exited the car and came to my side to help me out. Hand in hand, we walked up the sidewalk where he took my keys from me and opened my door. After he switched on the light he found with ease, he led me to the couch and motioned for me to sit. After slipping my shoes off, I curled my feet underneath me and sat there twitching in anticipation of what was to come. My gaze followed him as he helped himself to glasses from my cupboard, which he filled with ice and water from the fridge panel. He brought me a glass, sat down next to me, and tapped my legs, motioning me to switch positions so my back rested against the arm of the couch and my legs draped across his.

  As I sipped my water, he began expertly massaging my feet, pressing on the perfect spots to ease aches I didn’t realize I had. I moaned my pleasure. He rubbed and kneaded my feet as every muscle in my entire body relaxed. It should have been awkward that neither of us had said a single word since entering my house. The silence was oddly comforting. I sighed contentedly. Ever so slowly, his hands drifted upward, pushing my dress past my thighs until I was bared to his gaze. My legs opened almost unconsciously. He stared at me so long, I grew uncomfortable with his scrutiny. I’d never been studied this intently, and it made me nervous to be so exposed. He saw everything, including all the cellulite on my thighs. I set my glass down, and as I started to close my legs, he broke the silence.

  “I want to feast on this sweet, succulent cunt. It’s like a peach, waiting to be devoured. I bet you taste like honey. But you have to ask me nicely. I want to hear you say, ‘Sir, please eat my cunt.’ ” With his words, wetness pooled beneath me.

  “I can’t say that,” I pleaded, as I began squirming, waiting for him to do…something.

  “Then you don’t get this pussy licked. I want to hear you say, ‘Sir, please eat my cunt.’ If you don’t say it, then you’ll need to be punished. You have
three choices, Penny. You submit to my commands; you refuse my commands and accept your punishment; or you say your safe word, and we’re done.”

  His serious expression caused me to consider my next words carefully, because I didn’t know if he meant we were done for the night or we were done forever. I wasn’t quite willing to take the chance he meant forever. “S - Sir, please eat my c - cunt.” Before I’d even finished the last word, he turned, pulled my legs toward him so I now lay fully on my back on the couch, and lowered his mouth to me. He buried his face in my pussy as he licked me from slit to clit and then began sucking on the nub. His fingers followed behind, and he opened me wide. His tongue traced a downward path until he reached my pussy where he began fucking me with it. Mercilessly, he speared my opening. In and out, going deeper every time.

  “Fuck, that feels so good, Sir.” I threw my head back in ecstasy, not even realizing what I said. I’d never been one for dirty talk until now. My fingers found their way into his hair and I tugged roughly as he continued to devour me. On and on it went, tongue and teeth licked, sucked, and nibbled my clit. The tension mounted as he maintained his relentless assault. After what seemed like hours of intense pleasure, my orgasm peaked, and as my entire body tightened in preparation for its release, Marcus pulled away. I blinked down at him and saw my juices glistening on his mouth, my body still on the precipice of climax.
