A Dom's Dilemma (35 page)
“I’m impressed, darlin’. You remembered your ‘yellow’ word. I’ll take a pause, Kelly, but I don’t want to have to continue this later. You only have four more to go. Now, relax for me. That’s my good girl. Yes, I know it hurts, but I have to tell you as sore as you are right now, you are nowhere near sufferin’ the pain I experienced this afternoon when I caught you stuffin’ a hand towel into your purse. If I’d been a minute later, you might have slipped out the window, and if Mike had gotten you, I could have lost you for good.” After he took a deep breath, it sounded like he spoke through gritted teeth. “I never, never, never want to see you do anythin’ like that ever again. You understand me?”
She winced. His voice sounded angry now. He’d sounded calm and under control earlier, though she knew he’d been pissed. Now she had a better understanding of what he’d gone through.
“You want to answer me, Kellian?”
“Yes, Sir. I understand. You’re right. It was selfish of me to try to escape when you’d gone to so much trouble to protect me.”
“Kelly, I would go through hell to protect you if I had to, and this afternoon, I thought for a moment I had arrived. You better now? “
She took a deep breath, realizing it was his love and pain for her that hurt the most, not her bottom. Though admittedly it was pretty sore, too.
“Yes, Sir.”
“Good. We’re gonna finish this, then.” He drew back and sat up straighter, then his hand struck hard again before he called, “Seven.” This time she had to clamp down on her lower lip to keep from crying out.
He paused. “I love you, Kellian Sarah Franklin, and I want to marry you.”
“What?” she said, unable to look at him since he had her firmly restrained at the moment.
“Do you want me to add a swat for havin’ to repeat myself?”
“No, Sir! I’m sorry, Sir. But are you asking me to marry you, Sir?”
“Oh, no, lady mine. I realize we haven’t known each other long, but after today I think I need to keep you at my side so you stay out of trouble. So, this is your Dom talkin’, and your job is simply to give him what he wants. You are not bein’ given any say in this.”
“I’m not, Sir?”
“No, ma’am. You. Are. Not,” he replied, bringing his hand down on the last word and calling, “Eight.”
Kelly cried out, her bottom throbbing in renewed agony. This punishment hadn’t been easy for her at all and she wished it was over, and yet she had no desire to leave his lap. Somehow, she felt this was exactly where she needed to be at the moment. He was back to light rubbing again, and despite the tenderness of her seat she had to admit she loved the attention, because she loved the man giving it to her.
“Very well, Sir. I will submit to your greater wisdom in this as well.”
“Brat,” he murmured without heat. “All right. These last three are gonna be rapid fire. Then dependin’ on how you’re doin’, we may do another lotion application.”
“Nooo…,” she wailed, struggling to get away despite the futility of her attempt. “No, Sir. Please no. I’d rather take ten more swats.”
“Really?” he asked, and his tone held a definite note of challenge.
“No, Sir,” she replied, settling down again. “Your swats are definitely more painful, but it’s really a close second, Sir.”
“Good to know. This is it. Nine-Ten-Eleven.”
Those final spanks came so fast, her scream for all three only emerged with the last one. Then she dissolved into open, deep sobs. Gratitude, love, devotion, desire. Okay, maybe a little pain mixed in, too, brought every emotion to the fore.
“Hold on,” he said, and she knew what his words portended. He was going to take care of her whether she wanted him to or not. Her life would always be like…. A burst of agonizing fire lit up her backside. She screamed.
“Backwards from ten, Kellian.”
“Ten,” she called between teeth so tightly gritted she was surprised she could get out any sound at all.
“Good.”
“Owww. Nine.”
“Next.”
“Eight, and … I think the pain is lessening now, Sir.”
“Good.”
“Seven,” emerged on more of a sigh. “Yeah, that’s a lot better.”
“Well, I’m gonna make sure it’s thoroughly spread around before I stop.”
“Thank you, Sir. I appreciate that.”
“So, what do you think of a June wedding?”
“This is June, Sir.”
“Oh, yeah. Too soon?”
“A little, Sir. This is my first wedding, so I would at least like to get a gown.”
“July?”
She laughed. “How about October?”
“October?” He stopped rubbing. “Are you serious, woman?”
“Yes, Sir.”
She thought she heard a low growl, but he started rubbing again. “Very well, but I hope you aren’t talkin’ Halloween. Because if you are, you’re gonna be one awfully sore bride walkin’ down the aisle.”
“Um. May I ask why, Sir?”
“Because I intend to add one swat for every day you keep me waitin’ beyond the first. And if that isn’t incentive enough, I’ll start doin’ it by the hour.”
“Yikes!”
“Right. So, you better hope there aren’t any delays. It’s your hide on the line.”
“Would you really do that to me, Sir?” she asked, turning to look back at him, since he’d loosened up his grip to let her lay comfortably across his lap.
“Do you doubt me, sub?”
“No, Sir. Never again, Sir. I promise, Sir.”
“Good girl.” He paused, then asked, “So, what do you think about kids?”
She groaned. No doubt he’d even plan out the days their children would emerge squalling from her womb. Would she ever survive this? Or should the question be, how did she ever survive without him?”
Yeah, he could be strict, and stern, and had a wicked right hand, but he could also be gentle, and loving, and so damned sexy. He was the only man she knew who could make her laugh even when she felt like crying….
“I was thinkin’ sixteen. How does that sound?”
She choked back a laugh. “Painful, Sir. Very, very painful.”
“Okay, but at least two.”
“Yes, Sir. I believe I could manage two.”
“Good. That’s what I like. An obedient sub.”
Kelly smiled to herself. Yeah, they still had a few kinks to work out in their relationship, but she had no doubt they would succeed. At least her Dom was willing to listen, and wasn’t afraid of change. What more could a submissive girl ask for?
