Hearing his words, I stood, turned around, and noted that most of the company had dispersed. One last glance at Davis, I fled, looking for KC.

An hour later I finally caught up with my boyfriend. After looking in our tent, and making a cursory inspection of the faire grounds, I found him sitting alone behind our tent, near the stream, looking at the moon. He was calmer than I’d seen him in days.

“Have you been here all along?” I asked.

“Sure have.”

“While I was frantically trying to find you?”

“I thought your search was rather cute.” He must have spied me peering out of the surrounding darkness.

“Cute?”

He smiled. That was a relief.

“Now, do you want to tell me what’s bugging you, or shall I try you over my lap?”

“No, I’ll talk. I’m not sure if my ass can take any more.”

The conversation reminded me of ones we’d had in the theatre. He listened, I talked. I spit out everything I could think of that had been gnawing at my insides. There was a lot of fear about the future, a lot of question marks in my path. And there was this driving need still battering at my insides, as though I hadn’t quite scoured out everything from my past. When I finally finished my lengthy, twisted and confusing monologue, and had said everything that I could possibly think to say, I stopped. Certainly there was something else, but nothing popped into my brain. This too was reminiscent of a dozen other conversations KC and I had in our brief past.

KC was silent for a while; I could even hear him breathing. But I could hardly see his eyes for the darkness—another black box, though this was just a little more breathtaking with real stars not stage lights overh

ead.

“You want more, don’t you, Gail?” he said at last. “Something deeper than what’s here?”

Straight to the point. I sure could count on him for that.

But then, it didn’t pay to be stubborn now, or balk, or shy away. I could still feel the ache in my ass—and probably would for days. Though I was feeling better having had my ass so deeply worked, and even more for having confessed, KC was right. There had been more with Rossi, and there was more I needed now. I don’t know exactly what the point was to KC’s schemes or my endless sexual needs, but it was clear to him and clear to me that my summer journey was not over. Hell, it was only mid-August. Though summer was waning, it had not yet reached its end.

“I do need more, KC,” I agreed.

“Then you’ll get more,” he stated simply.

“Where? Here?” I wondered.

“The faire is over, Gail. But these people and this place aren’t the only playground I know where arcane rites like these take place.”

“No?”

“Just a fair piece down the road…” he mused.

“And what do I do about September when we return to Chicago?” I asked.

“Now how can I answer that? It’s not September. You never know, by the time you’re home again, you might just want your job back. You might want nothing more to do with me. You might be so sick of being spanked, you’ll never go over another lap again.”

I couldn’t imagine any of those possibilities; they all seemed so far-fetched.

“Never,” I answered feeling sure of myself. I had my lust instilled in me. I knew I needed more. If only I could arrange my life to make this bliss work every day. But that solution still eluded me.

KC and I were about to begin the last journey of our long summer together. Sometimes if felt as though we were on a pilgrimage to secure my sanity and leaving the Renaissance Faire I was still confused. By the time I found home again, I’d have my answer; but not until I took the wildest ride of my submissive life.

Chapter Fourteen

We took the bike the northern route, across Canada, dropping back to the US in Maine, driving through the state until we were nearly at the border of Maine and New Hampshire.

In a little hideaway village, we stopped at the outskirts, picked up a six-pack at the local grocery, and then headed into the country, stopping at the top of a ridgeline that looked out on a breathtaking landscape of forests. Just yards away down a small dirt road was a cabin sitting on a rise, appearing out of nowhere against the dense growth of green behind it.
