“Absolutely. No sex until I say so. As amatter of fact…when’syourbirthday?”

“April tenth.”

“Lovely. We shall wait ‘til then.”

“Lovely? Shall? When did you turn into aVictorian maiden?”

“About a minute ago.”

“And you’re saying I’ll have to wait untilmybirthday?” I ask incredulously.

“Yes. Putthaton your calendar, Mr.Hunter.”

“You must be out of your mind. You’re askingfor another spanking.”

“Why would I? It hurt.”

“Because that time it was supposed to.”

She rolls her eyes in disbelief. “When does aspankingnothurt?”

“You’d be surprised, doll.”

“Obviously, you’ve done it before. Thesewomen…they enjoyed it?”

“Of course. I wouldn’t have done it if theydidn’t.”

“And you do, too?”

“I do.”

She chews on her bottom lip and slides herhands around my neck.

“Show me. Spank me, Gage.”

***Raven***

I can’t believe I just asked him to spank me.What the hell is wrong with me? Maybe Iamdrunk…or drunk onhim. The change in his eyes is instantaneous. A second ago, theywere alight with humor and mischief. Now, they’re dark with desire.He really does enjoy this.

“Are you sure?” He asks with raisedbrows.

“Yes…please.”

“If you don’t like it, you just have to tellme to stop. Okay?”

I nod as his fingers move to the button on myjeans. He kneels between my legs and pulls my zipper down. Mybreathing becomes ragged. I raise my hips off the bed and allow himto remove my jeans. He works them slowly down, his eyes followingtheir progress. He drops them at the foot of the bed and bites intohis bottom lip as his eyes wander over my body. The heat from hisgaze and his fingertips lightly gliding down my stomach, send ashiver up my spine. He’s barely touching me, but my body respondswith intensity. I clench my muscles at the insistent throbbingbetween my legs.

“You’re perfect.”

Jesus. He sits on the edge of the bed andtakes a deep, steadying breath.

“Come here.” I kneel next to him and he curlshis arm around my waist. “Lie across my lap.”

I do as he says, gasping as his erectionpresses into my stomach. He adjusts me to his liking and thentrails his fingers down my spine. I shudder and moan as I feelmyself getting wetter. Just the knowledge of being totally at hismercy excites me in a way I never thought possible. His palmtravels up the back of my thigh and over my ass. There’s a softnessto his touch that belies what he’s about to do. He repeats theaction on my other thigh.

“Fuck, I love your body.”

I squirm on his lap as the ache between mylegs gets greater. He adjusts my panties, exposing more of my assto him, then rubs my cheeks as if preparing them for his palm. Whenthe first smack comes, I wasn’t expecting it. I yelp in surprise.That wasn’t so bad.Slap. The next cheek gets someattention.
