“I hate that I’ve barely seen you the past two days. Have you thought about hurting yourself?”

That one she could answer.

“No, I haven’t.”

“Good girl. Stand up.”

She stood, her bottom throbbing. Drawing her close, he kissed her. Her heart skipped, her insides warming. She pressed against him and reached up to wrap her arms around his neck. He put an arm under her ass and lifted her.

Putting her legs around his hips, she held on tightly, kissing him back until he drew away.

“Liam,” she moaned.

“My baby likes kissing.”

His baby liked pretty much everything he did to her. Except for the exercise. That sucked.

“We have to stop,” he told her, trying to set her down. But she clung to him. She didn’t want to be put down.

“Girl,” he warned. “Let go.”

“And if I don’t? Whatcha gonna do?”

“This.” He gave her four sharp smacks on her ass. Then lifted her away from him.

Yeah, if he thought those spanks were a deterrent, then he was sadly mistaken. He sat her on the weight bench then loomed over her. Her heart raced for a different reason.

This is Liam, stupid body. Stop.

As though he sensed her unease with his position, he dropped to a crouch.

“Sorry,” she said breathlessly.

“Enough of that,” he growled. He took hold of her chin, holding her stare to his. “I’m not putting up with that nonsense, understand me? Any more talk of being a burden or apologies will result in you going over my knee.”

He watched her carefully, taking in her reaction.

“Are you waiting for me to say my safeword or be scared?”

“Are you? Scared?”

“I don’t think I would’ve just climbed you like a monkey if I were.”

His lips twitched. “You can do that anytime you like, baby.”

She grinned then frowned. “I don’t like sneaking around. We’re going to need to tell Regent eventually.”

“We will,” he promised. “Nothing stands between me and something I want.”

“You really are the most arrogant man.”

“Does it turn you on?” he asked.

“There must be something wrong with me because I think the answer is yes.”

He grinned then stood and held out his hand to her. “Come on, shower time.”

“Oh my God!” she squealed, jumping to her feet. “I stink!”
