“Pass it over.”

She handed him the piece of paper and he went over each line. What the heck?

“Well done,” Jack told her.

“Can I see what you wrote?”

“Hmm. Not yet. I need to show Ian.”

She didn’t think she needed rules. “Don’t I have to agree?”

“Let me think about that. No, I don’t think so.”

“Jack!”

“What is Jack doing now, Little girl?” Ian walked in carrying another tray of food. Sheesh, were they trying to fatten her up for something?

Although some of the snacks looked palatable at least.

“He’s writing rules for me and won’t let me see. Isn’t he mean? And he made me write thirty lines! Thirty! I’m only a Little girl.”

“I thought you were a big girl before,” Ian said, raising an eyebrow.

Drat. He wasn’t falling for her ‘feel sorry for me’ spiel. That was a bummer.

“I’m a complicated creature. It’s hard to keep up with the many facets of Maggie.”

Jack snorted.

“What rules did you write?” Ian asked, after setting down the tray.

Jack gave Ian the notebook before picking up one of the books they’d gotten for her. It had empty pages and he started drawing something on one of the pages.

“Good. Really? Okay. Right. Sure,” Ian muttered as he read through them. “All pretty standard stuff.”

“Don’t I need to know what they are in order to follow them? I mean . . . I don’t think I need them. I’m a good girl. Never naughty.”

“You were just punished,” Ian told her.

“Pssh. Semantics.”

“Rules for Little Maggie,” Ian read out. “She must not lie. She must obey her Bigs. She must?—”

“Aren’t you going to say what comes next?” Jack asked.

He shot a look at Jack. “What comes next is ridiculous.”

Her gaze moved back and forth, trying to follow them.

“Is it?” Jack grinned, then he continued to draw. “She’s going to see it anyway.”

“She must obey her Tops, the handsome and gorgeous Jack and boring, grouchy Ian.”

Oh.

Jack was so naughty.

She glanced over at him, shaking her head. “I think Jacky needs a spanking.”
