My Kingdom for a Corner (12 page)

When she was between them, he clasped her face between his hands and bent down to kiss her, his lips soft and tender, yet demanding. Her head swum as emotions swirled through her.

She broke off the kiss as the feelings threatened to take over. “Don’t think I’m giving up my job, or…”

The remainder of her words were muffled as he put his hand over her mouth. “Straith was right, you are stubborn. You’re not giving up anything. We’re gaining each other. Now, go upstairs and find a crop for you to use on Justin’s ass. I’ll call him up here.”

She stood and started toward the dungeon.

“And Francesca, whatever you select will be used on your bottom afterward, so choose wisely. A good spanking to start us off, and when you step into the corner after that, your…”

“Ass will be freshly fucked,” they said in unison. Francesca laughed as a smile spread across his face.

“I see I have my hands full. Training you will be interesting.”

“Oh, Mr. Oliver, you have no idea just how interesting.”

Transparent Illusions
by Melinda Barron

Freelance writer Saffron Tyler needs work. When she offers her journalistic skills to Steele Publications, they suggest that she spend two weeks as a submissive at Fingertip Fantasies, an exclusive BDSM resort that caters to the ultimate fantasies of any customer willing to pay for the high-end service. She’s been tasked to come back with a titillating exposé guaranteed to enthrall the readers of Steele’s underground magazine,
Salacious.

But when Saffron arrives at the resort, she realizes nothing is as it seems, from the fact she doesn’t know where the resort is located, or anything about the man she is submitting to—except she’s to call him Master, with a capital M.

What starts out as an undercover assignment soon becomes so much more. Immersed in the lifestyle, Saffron finds herself no longer
acting
the role of the submissive, but actually
wanting
to be the perfect sub her Master believes she can be. When all is said and done, will Saffron take her experience and her story and never look back? Or will she choose to stay with the man who commands her mind, body, and soul.

Submissive Beauty
by Eliza Gayle

Eager to understand her secret desires, Gabrielle enters “The Sanctuary.” Inside she’s immediately torn between fear of the unknown and a craving to learn more, until the lights dim. From the first sound of Thomas’ calm and controlled voice, she is mesmerized. With an underlying need in her emotional spirit that requires more than sex, she is easily seduced into a world of dominance and submission under false pretenses.

For Thomas, an experienced Master, Gabrielle is an interesting mix of defiant, naive and submissive. Her sharp mind and wit appeal to him as much as the curves of her lush figure. He accepts the challenge to help train her despite the danger she represents. Long term anything for him is out of the question. If he does his job right, his protégé David will end up the perfect Dom for her and Thomas will move on with his armor intact.

Their journey puts Gabrielle at the mercy of two men who teach her how to embrace her darkest needs within a tight bond of trust. Unfortunately, betrayal lurks on the path to total surrender.

With hearts and the future at stake, Asher and Neeve must find the power to believe, trust and love one another, not just for the moment but forever. But that might be more than either is able to give.
