Free His Lady Godiva (Lovers and Other Strangers) by L.C. Giroux Page B

not near done with you, I'm afraid. Put your skirt on -nothing else! and come with me."
    "Michael, I have to let Allyn know I won't be coming home. It wouldn't be fair to him."
    "Fine, call him, tell him you'll see him Monday. You will be with me all weekend."
    Thankfully, he was holding her otherwise her knees would have given out. She had wanted to see behind the doctor's courtly mask. She just hadn't been prepared for the raw intensity of him and the way he dominated her. Oh, all weekend? She was going to be useless by Monday, completely deliciously useless.
    "Kitten?" Him calling her that made her muscles clench and her sex weep with longing for him. Michael stopped her thoughts with a tight grip on her arm. He shook her to rouse her back to the moment. "You need to know if you come with me, you live by my rules, even if you don't always like them. You are mine, to protect, to command. I won't let you go, ever. Be very sure that it is what you want. I, I will understand if you can't handle this. It is all new and raw for me too, so I am giving you this last chance to back out. I don't think I can do this, be as sexual as I know you need, without being so dominant. I won't ever truly hurt you, or humiliate you. I want you to think about what this was like. Unless I'm mistaken you like me dominating you but I want to hear you say it.
    Violet's mouth worked open and closed without any sound coming out. Finally she was able to ask "I'm just supposed to cede all power to you?"
    "When we are together."
    "Do I get to touch you, because so far tonight you haven't let me. I can't do this if I can't touch you, show you how I feel. This can't be just you doing things to me. Sometimes, I want to make you feel good too. I also need to know that it will be just me. No pain, no humiliation, no outside people.
    "Just you and me. You can touch me, eventually, as a reward if you are good." Michael smiled at her then he added, "If you say no, I think I'll die but I will understand.
    "Michael, I wanted all of you, I couldn't want anything less even if you tried. Yes, your dominance scares me a little but I think that might be part of the draw for you, I know it is for me. I have responsibilities that I can not give up for any relationship, no matter what it involves. That is not going to change. I need to know that you will honor those, so yes, weekends are yours but I still need to go to work and there will be times I need to travel. More than that I can't give you. If you are willing to have my submission, on my schedule, then yes, I would like to spend the weekend with you.
    Michael tried to hide his smile. Thank God! He'd felt more alive in the last hour than he had in his life. She was his, they were bound together in some way he didn't understand fully yet but bound none the less. He didn't trust his voice so he just reached for her hand and kissed it, recognizing the gift she had just given him.
    She followed him to his condo in her car. Violet felt shy suddenly in the elevator, she hadn't buttoned her blouse not knowing if that would go against Michael's rules but not really caring if anyone saw her. He liked her like this, what else mattered really.
    When they got inside she was stunned by his place. It was very modern with lots of glass and concrete. The back wall was all windows that overlooked the harbor. The kitchen was open to the large living room with the eating area along the windows. There was a feeling of restraint to the decorating that was very in keeping with what she had seen of Michael before tonight. A gas fireplace opposite the windows had already been turned on making the room feel warmer despite the concrete and chrome. In front of the fireplace was a large flokati rug. The long haired sheepskin looked so sensual, Violet wanted to strip bare and lay on it. This was Michael's doing, since before tonight she was sure she never would have even thought that.
    "Kitten." Michael patted the couch next to where he sat in
