“How is it?” he asked.

“It’s…” Horrible. Awful. Hideous.

Unbelievably, as he continued, as she moved with him instead of fighting to remain still, she started to become aroused. “Sir!”

“Yes?”

“I… Oh, my God, I think I might come.”

All of a sudden, with the plug out, he stopped.

She swore beneath her breath.

Silence shrouded the living room, and the temperature seemed to drop.

“Thank you for telling me,” he said. “Now we’ll go on. This is the penalty for having to be reminded of your manners.”

Unreleased need vibrated through her. With her teeth gritted, she nodded. “The lesson is hitting home, Sir.”

“I’m glad you see that. Still, I’ll be edging you for a bit.”

What the hell is that? “Edging?”

“I’ll bring you to the precipice again and again. But I won’t let you come.”

She pressed her lips together. There were many parts of this that she didn’t like—or actively despised.

“Since your ass is stretched and so wide open, you’ll tolerate a larger plug.”

Instinctively, she tightened her buttocks.

“It’s going in,” he said, tone implacable. “How difficult do you want it to be?”

She heard him moving around the room, and not knowing what he was doing made her crazy.

“Would you like to see it?”

“No.” She barely remembered to express her gratitude. “No, thank you, Sir.” Knowing what was coming might make it worse.

“I’m doing this because you didn’t remember to thank me earlier.”

More than anything, she wanted to look at him, see his eyes, maybe gather some reassurance from the way he looked at her. “I thought you were going to spank me for that?”

“There are many ways to reinforce lessons,” he said. “Corporal punishment is only one of several.”

“I think I prefer that, Sir, to something else you might choose.”

“As your Dom, I will make that decision.”

This relationship was a juxtaposition. The things she liked most about him, that he was firm and unyielding, were also the things she hated the most.

“You were going to have to work your way up to a larger plug, regardless. This just accelerates my timeline.”

“Yes, Sir,” she said miserably. When would she learn to keep her mouth shut?

“Look at me, pet.”

She turned her head. Thankfully, he had the plug behind his back.
