Free Richard's Reign (Book 6): Enthrall Novella #3 (Enthrall Sessions) by Vanessa Fewings

off.
    “I was spontaneous last night.”
    “That’s right. You’re the wanton criminal who broke into my home.”
    “There were mitigating circumstances.”
    “In what way?”
    “I thought you might change your mind about our agreement.”
    “Why?”
    “Because your signature was illegible. Just a couple of swirls.”
    “That’s the way I sign my name.”
    “I told Sienna to call you Mr. Sheppard because I knew it would get your attention.”
    “You knew it would come over as a threat.”
    “I didn’t mean it too.” She looked sheepish. “You’re a complex man.”
    “Is that what Ethan told you?”
    “He wanted me to know about your past.”
    “So you knew what you were getting yourself into.”
    “In case it ever came out we were friends.”
    “You mean like father, like son?”
    “I don’t believe that about you. Anyway, Ethan told me you’re very kind. You have a healing side.”
    I was sure Ethan hid the true details of how he’d come to know about my healing touch. Particularly as the truth of it would reveal so much more about her cousin.
    “Ethan also told me you’d say no, probably.”
    I gave a thin smile. “He’s right.”
    She looked devastated.
    I owed Ethan. He was, after all, one of us. He protected Chrysalis with the fierceness of a brilliant D.A. who knew the law well, and worked with Dominic to ensure our continued integrity.
    “Why are you so reluctant to take me on?” she said.
    “Because your motives are not authentic.”
    “How do you mean?”
    “Something else is going on.”
    “I believe I’ll also grow from this experience.”
    “How?”
    She broke my gaze. “Can it be my secret?”
    “We shouldn’t keep secrets from each other.”
    “Then I’ll tell you. It’s so that I feel more comfortable with my body.”
    And yet she’d lain herself out for me on that desk the first day we’d met, sprawled like a wanton kitten; a woman who was in touch with her sexuality and seemed to like nothing more than coming.
    “We shouldn’t lie to each other either,” I said.
    She looked defeated.
    “You don’t really understand what a submissive is. What I’ll do to you.”
    “You want me to give up control in the bedroom?”
    “Not just in the bedroom.”
    “What else?”
    I wrapped my hand around her throat. “Your homework is to recite to me during your first session all the ways a good sub serves her master, understand?”
    “Yes,” she burst out breathlessly.
    “If at any time I see you fight for dominance our agreement will be over.”
    “Why would I?”
    “Because you’re used to getting your own way, Andrea. You’re spoiled. What you want you get. Proof in point, you’re in my pool.”
    “You’re the lucky one.”
    “Really, is that right?”
    She relented and gave a sweet smile.
    “The first time I met you we discussed your experience with orgasms.”
    She raised her chin petulantly.
    “That look, right there, is disobedience. I don’t tolerate insubordination.”
    Her lips trembled with excitement.
    “From the moment I first saw you I knew you’d make an honorable sub. Don’t fight it though. Resist it and you resist me. I don’t train subs. Never have. So our agreement is a real privilege for you. Don’t take it for granted.”
    “I don’t.”
    “I’m going to promise you this, Andrea - I’m going to take you to the very limits of pleasure. I’m going to own your body and set every cell on fire with passion. When you’re not with me all you’ll think about is how well I know your pussy, how exquisitely I play with it, how it tingles when you think of me. You’ll come in your dreams, and you’ll come as you wake up because where I’m going to take you will burrow so deep inside your psyche you’ll never forget what I made you feel—
    She’d slipped into subspace.
    “I will teach you to come properly. Submit to me and I’ll have you climaxing so hard you’ll not only forget your own name you’ll experience
