Page 17 of My Bodyguard’s The Boss

“Seriously,” Austin said. “Thanks. For last night. I’d been hoping for that.”

Dominic paused. Austin grimaced, imagining what his lawyer would say about this. Or his brother Levi when he inevitably told him. The lawyer would at least be polite about it. Levi was going to laugh in his face.

“I just didn’t think you’d do anything about it,” Austin continued. “You’re so…”

“Uptight?”

“In control,” Austin corrected. “You don’t seem like an impulse guy.”

“I’m not,” Dominic said. “Not anymore, anyway.”

“What changed?”

Dominic didn’t even hesitate. “You.”

Austin grinned. He felt giddy. There was a voice in the back of his head whispering that maybe starting something with his bodyguard wasn’t the best idea, but it was easy to ignore with Dominic speaking to him like this.

“I was hoping for this too,” Dominic admitted. “You’re lucky I have so much restraint. Otherwise, I would have fucked you in that first week.”

Austin groaned, slipping a hand under the sheets to grip his hardening cock. He was almost glad Dominic had made him wait so long. It had only made last night better. So many months of fantasies, all coming true at once.

“I’m surprised everyone doesn’t see how bad you need it,” Dominic said.

Okay, Austin decided. We’re doing this.

He wrapped a hand around his cock, remembering Dominic’s strong hand around his shaft.

“I’m a really good actor,” Austin said. “You just…”

See through me, he didn’t say. It was too much, even for him. Dominic already had so much power over him. He didn’t want to give him everything. Not yet, anyway.

“So,” Austin said instead. “We’re doing this?”

As far as come-ons went, it wasn’t his best. In his defense, he was still flying blind. He’d never been in a dynamic like this.

Dominic’s voice went husky. “Are you touching yourself?”

Austin’s hand froze. Was he supposed to ask permission? He wished Dominic would tell him this shit.

“Uhhh,” Austin said. “Can I?”

“No,” Dominic said simply. “You can wait.”

Austin groaned, grudgingly letting go of himself. “What? Come on!”

“Who’s in control here?”

Even through the frustration, it made Austin shiver. Some of that calm from before the phone call trickled back. He didn’t have to put on an act here. He just had to do what Dominic said.

“You,” he muttered.

“Good puppy,” Dominic said. “Have you eaten breakfast?”

Austin blinked. Were they seriously not going to have phone sex? Even after Dominic called him puppy?

“No,” he said. “Just honey.”

“I’m coming over. Don’t eat anything before I get there.”
