Chapter 10
After Arabella left his study, Thomas banged his head on his desk to clear it.
It required several attempts.
Somehow, with just one sentence, she'd managed to remove any small satisfaction from disciplining her. It hadn't been all that enjoyable to begin with, but he'd at least felt that he'd made it clear he wouldn't be manipulated and that insincere apologies meant nothing. The hard spanking had obviously been a bit of a shock to her, and he hadn't been nearly as harsh as he could have been.
Another five minutes and he could have turned her blushing cheeks a bright red.
Likely she didn't even realize how much he'd held back and so she couldn't properly appreciate it. Then again, considering what she and her friends had apparently been discussing, perhaps she did. Thomas had no way of knowing what they'd told her.
He knew that several of them had been punished much more harshly than he had just done so.
Immediately his mind went to the wedding present the Earl of Spencer had bestowed upon him—a present which he gave to each member of their little 'club' upon their marriage. With his business connections to India he had access to all sorts of little toys outside the usual run of things. Thomas had tucked the present away with his own box of implements he enjoyed using for exotic bed play—a supple leather tawse, several paddles of varying sizes, a small whip made of incredibly soft, supple leather strands, and a stinging ointment which he'd won in card game last year.
Wesley's gift had included several new ointments, including a lubricant, as well as an aphrodisiac, spring-loaded clips for nipples, and a set of rectal dilators. All of the gentlemen had recommended the dilators, several the clips (not everyone had used them apparently), but only Wesley had any actual experience with the aphrodisiac.
He'd grinned as he'd described how very worn out his wife would be the next day.
Something to consider, when Thomas was certain of his welcome in Arabella's bed. If she were too exhausted to get herself into trouble...
Shaking off his thoughts, which were only going to lead him down a path he didn't intend to trod this morning, Thomas stood. In his current state of mind he couldn't possibly concentrate on business or his correspondence; he might as well break his fast. The staff should be laying out the morning's selections by now.
Striding into the dining room, Thomas was pleased to see he was correct—and even more pleased to see his father was there. Not just because he was happy to see his father up and about, reading his newspaper the way he liked to do in the morning, but because his father was alone. As much as Thomas loved both of his parents and valued their opinions, there were some things a man just didn't feel comfortable discussion in front of his mother.
The viscount peered over the top of his paper to see who was joining him, and smiled happily when he saw his firstborn and heir.
