His fervent pledge and the ferocity blazing in his chocolate eyes slammed through me…all the way to my toes.Yes, I wanted an orgasm—not simply for the sake of relief—but to strengthen our connection.How could he not see that?Every hour I spent with him, I longed for a hundred more.

“But before I begin to possess you, you’re going to show me every damn skeleton you’ve got locked inside your well-guarded closet.”

Even when peeling back my layers with his emotional scalpel, as he did now, Tony had the uncanny ability to free the chains inside me.The dream of opening up to him both thrilled and terrified me.I had two choices.I could sit suffocating on my own stubborn pride or I could start being honest with him.Was I ready—would I ever be—to rip open the scabs of my past and make them bleed?

“Why do you have such a hard-on to dig up my dirt?It’s over and done with,” I snapped, trying to stall for time and come up with a way to wriggle out of responding.

“My hard-on has nothing to do with your past and everything to do with the sweet taste of your lips…your sinful soft breasts, and candy-hard nipples.Now, start talking.”

He backed me into a corner, and even though my body responded to his erotic words, my mind rebelled at his demand.I raised my chin defiantly.

“I don’t want to.But if and when I change my mind, you’ll be the first to know.Go work the dungeon.I’m done.”

A sarcastic smirk played on his lips.“There you go again, topping from the bottom.George may have let you get away with that shit, but I won’t!And just so you know, this conversation is far from over, little one.”

“Not if I refuse to play your little power game.What are you going to do about it, Tony…Spank my ass?”I hissed.Hating that I sounded like a spoiled child.It pissed me off even more that Tony knew how to push my buttons so damn easily.“Go ahead.Spank me.I’ll just fly into subspace.Oh, but that’s not what you want, is it?No, you want to slice and dice me open, so you can read the puddles of blood like some flippin’ Rorschach test.Let me tell you something, mister.That’s not going to happen.”

“I don’t put much stock in a Rorschach.However, you might as well get real comfortable in that chair, sweetheart.I have a feeling this could take all night.”

“Oh, that’s right.You’re the big bad Dom, and I’m just a meek, little sub.Go right ahead.Ask all the questions you want.It doesn’t mean I’ll answer a single one of them.”

Tony threw back his head and laughed.My anger surged, and my blood pressure spiked.I clenched my fist into a ball, wanting nothing more than to punch him in the jaw.

“Leagh, you’re not equipped to play these kinds of games with me.”His smile vanished, and his eyes narrowed.“Let me warn you now before you get in over your head.Reverse psychology won’t work on me.I’ll chew you up one side, and spit you out the other.You’re way the fuck out of your league, angel.”

I bristled.His condescending tone scraped up my spine.Anger and sass weren’t going to deflect Tony’s mission.He had the upper hand when it came to mind fucks, and we both knew it.The tenacious bastard wasn’t going to stop until he clawed me open.A fat tear slid down my cheek as Tony continued to hold me in his unyielding gaze.

“You’re some piece of work, you know that?”he chided.“I’m sure this little trick of yours worked on George, but it won’t on me, sweetheart.”

“What trick?”I spat, angrily wiping my cheeks.

“Turning on the water works and trying to gain his sympathy with those big ol’ crocodile tears.They’re not going to work on me, sweetheart.”Tony flashed a mock smile.

“You bastard.I hate you!”I screamed as I raised my right knee, aiming to launch my foot into his balls.

Tony sidestepped to the left, and my foot glanced off his thigh.“I wouldn’t be here if I thought you hated me, Leagh.Oh, and trying to kick me in the nuts is going to cost you…big.”

Before I could toss back a verbal barb, Tony swooped in and wrapped his hands around my waist.He plucked me out of the chair like a ragdoll.I yelped and tried to smack him upside the head with my cast.

“You hit me, and so help me…I’ll haul you to the dungeon, chain you to the cross, and fire up your sexy ass with my whip.”

Incongruent to the fury rolling off him, he gently eased me onto the bed.Yanking my cotton pants off, he tossed them to the floor.

“Spread your legs for me, angel,” Tony instructed in a husky voice.His slow, seductive stare raked over my legs, zeroing in on the scant peach thong covering my sweltering mound.

“In your wildest, wettest dreams,” I spat, squeezing my knees together.Pushing off from the mattress, I sat up.“Give me back my pants and get the hell out of my room.”

Tony sucked in a deep breath before he turned and walked toward the door.

Thank goodness.Finally, he’s going to leave me in peace!My inner voice cheered.

Pausing near the dresser, Tony bent and lifted his black toy bag off the floor before returning to the side of the bed.

“What do you think you’re doing?”I demanded.

“Reminding you that I’m the Dom and you’re the sub,” he replied with an evil grin.

Tossing the over-sized duffle onto the bed, he plucked his cell phone from his pocket, fired off a text to someone, and pocketed the device.Slowly, Tony pulled back the heavy zipper.Reaching in, Tony pulled out a bundle of white cotton rope
