Chapter Seven

This gorgeous woman appealed to him on so, so many levels. Her eyes were as green as they were revealing. And her face, devoid of make-up, hid nothing. All her concerns were clear in her expression, including the fact her eyebrows were drawn together, and he sensed an impending argument. Having no intention of indulging that, he acted, picking her up and tossing her over his shoulder.

“What the hell are you thinking?” she yelled, kicking futilely. “Put me down!” She pummeled his back.

He swatted her upturned derriere.

“Ow! Damn you, Damien.”

Undeterred, he strode to the end of the hallway.

He carried her past the beautiful black, oriental screen that hid a kneeling bench. He put her down next to it. “Take off your shoes, please.”

She glared up at him.

“Use the safe word or do as you’re told.” When she did neither, he said, “What’s the punishment for defiance?”

“Talking about it,” she said.

He fought to hide his grin. “The punishment is having to talk to me?”

“Yeah.” She folded her arms across her chest protectively.

“Go on.” He sobered.

“I don’t know what’s wrong,” she admitted. “This makes it… I don’t know. More real.”

“It hasn’t seemed so until now?”

“No. It’s been more like… Playing at a club. I could be detached in a way.”

“I hear what you’re saying.” He allowed her to keep a small distance between them. “And that’s why it’s crucial we do this.”

“If we do it here, it’s part of my life.” She looked away.

“Safe word. Otherwise I’ll push.” He gave her a few seconds to think it through then repeated, “Please remove your shoes.”

She scowled. A full ten seconds ticked by before she complied.

“Thank you.”

“Thank you?”

“I know this isn’t easy, and I appreciate you yielding to me.”

“Don’t get too cocky.”

“I assure you, Milady, you’ll never let that happen.” He knew trust didn’t come easily, if at all, to her. All day, he was sure, she heard stories of failed relationships and hurt. No doubt that reaffirmed her resolve to protect herself. “Now the dress.”

She removed it and dropped it on the floor.

“I could have hung that up for you.”

“I know.”

“Trying to bring a little disorder to my life, Catrina?”

“Me?” She blinked innocently.

“I’m onto you.” He walked around her. “Please put your hands behind your head and spread your legs.”

“You going to inspect me, Damien?”

“I am.”

She wouldn’t be allowed to goad him into losing his temper. But he would give her a taste of what it was to submit, totally.

“This is under duress.”

“Duly noted.” He gave her time, but she followed his direction rather than using her safe word. “You really are a treasure, Milady.”

“Don’t patronize me.”

“I was sincere,” he said, walking around her. “I don’t say things I don’t mean. I don’t need to.”

She continued to look ahead.

“You’re tempted,” he said.

“To?”

“Look at the floor.”

“No.”

“As a show of respect.”

“No.”

“As a submissive act.”

“No,” she said, the word all-but a breathless whisper.

“As an acknowledgment that I’m your Dom.”

“No.”

But as he circled her, she did what he asked. “Lovely.” He stopped in front of her
