“This is so beautiful,” she said as she followed him up the path towards the little wooden cabin. The trees around them were so tall and majestic. They were bathed in glowing sunlight, it felt ethereal.
“It is. I bought this place as a bit of a getaway, but I haven’t really used it much.” He unlocked the door and she stepped inside, surprised by how comfortable it all looked. They walked right into the living area. The first thing she noticed were the high ceilings. To her right, a big comfortable corner sofa sat in front of a huge fireplace. There was a small dining area to her left with a kitchen behind it.
“There’s just one bedroom beyond with an attached bathroom. I’m going to run you a bath. Strip and place your clothes on top of the dining table,” he told her.
Okay, so it seemed they were jumping into things right away.
He turned and cupped her chin, lifting her face up. “Until we return to Haven, do you agree to let me take complete control?”
Her breath caught. “We already discussed this.”
“Yes, but before we start I want to hear it again.”
“You’re completely in charge, Sir.”
“Good. You know that means that you wear what I wa
nt, eat what I give you, go to bed when I order you to, and come when I give you permission.”
“Yes, Sir.” She didn’t know why she was so aroused at the idea of giving herself to him completely and she knew she wouldn’t want it all the time. But for one night it was something she could give him. And she thought she might get as much, if not more, in return.
“Just until we return to Haven.”
He smiled. “Yes. While I can’t turn off who I am at the bedroom door, I don’t want a slave either. Tonight is about breaking through some barriers and bringing us closer together. But it can’t work if you’re not willingly giving me the power to take complete control.”
“You have that power, Sir.”
He kissed her lightly. “After you strip, you will kneel right here and wait for me, understood?”
“Yes, Sir.”
“Good girl.”
God, she loved when he said those two words to her. She quickly stripped when he turned away. She knelt and widened her legs, placing her hands palm up on her thighs and lowering her gaze. She kept her back straight, breathing slowly to center herself. She hadn’t really understood why a submissive would want to kneel for their Dominant but now she got it. It wasn’t that they weren’t equal. They were. In fact, she knew that, if anything, he saw her as more important than he was. But it was a way for her to show her submission, her desire to please. But it also helped her focus, find that submissive core. It settled her.
“Very nice, pet. You may stand. I have a desire to inspect my property.”
She glanced up in shock at those words. His property? What the hell?
His face grew cold. “Are you defying me already? When you promised to give me complete control?”
Oh, fuck. She was messing up. Her stomach tightened into knots.
“I’m sorry, Sir. I-I didn’t mean to.”
He was silent. Still. Move, dumbass. Do what he told you.
She quickly stood but kept her gaze lowered.
“Turn around and bend over.”
She turned to face the door then bent over from the waist. She expected to feel a heavy spank to her ass so she was surprised when he merely ran his hand over her bottom.
“I know this won’t be easy for you, pet. But you are going to have to trust that I have your best interest at heart.”
She took a deep breath in then let it out slowly. She did trust him. He was right. She’d stumbled at the first hurdle. Just because he called her property didn’t mean he thought less of her. Not at all.
“Yes, Sir. I really am sorry.”
