“That’s what my friend Vanessa told me. That’s why I’m here.”

He waited, giving her time to sort it through.

“The truth is I haven’t slept well in weeks. I think that hooking up with you will relieve some of my angst.”

“You just caused permanent injury to my ego, Maggie.” He placed his hand over his heart in mock affront. “I was hoping you were going to flatter me, throw yourself on your knees at my feet, telling me I’m a fabulous Dom as you prettily beg for my attention.”

She grinned. “That, too.”

For a moment, he was silent. This was one of the rare moments of lightness between them and he appreciated it. “The last time we spoke about this, you were clear that you don’t want to feel as if I’m manipulating you. Or that you’re sleeping with the enemy.”

She ran her thumb across a cuticle and didn’t seem to know she was doing it.

Again he waited while she picked her words. “If we are both determined to keep our work and our private lives separate, it should work.”

“Go on.”

“I thought we could scene every once in a while. Get kinky. No strings. Just when it’s convenient for both of us. If it suited you, we could meet at the Den and keep it less complicated.”

“I can understand if you need that for security.”

“I don’t.”

“In that case, it’s easier if we use one of our places.”

She nodded.

“When were you wanting to get together?”

“I was hoping we could do it tonight,” she admitted. “So that I can sleep. I understand if—”

“Would you like me to take you for a glass of wine first to loosen your inhibitions?”

“I don’t need anything else from you.”

“Any more ways you’d like to destroy my ego?”

“You asked for honesty,” she reminded him with a charming, fake smile. “So, what do you say? You gonna spank me or not?”

“I’ll give you a ten minute head start while I finish up a few things here. When I arrive at your place, I want you naked, lying on your back on the floor, your knees raised and held apart by your hands. Any questions?”

“Where in the house? My bedroom?”

“You tell me.”

“Ah…” She shifted. “Right inside the doorway.”

“Good answer. I’ll need your address.” He slid a piece of paper across to her.

Maggie scooted forwards on her chair and wrote down her information.

“I’ll be right behind you,” he reminded her.

She looked at him. Her brown eyes were wide, unblinking, and her lips were slightly parted.

He’d yet to touch her, but because of the things he’d said, he knew the scene was already in progress. His cock hardened as she stood and smoothed the front of her skirt, like he’d seen her do at the Den. The betrayal of her nerves was utterly feminine and enchanting.

She paused at the door and looked back over her shoulder. He waited patiently. A few seconds passed.

Saying nothing, she left.

David finished his work, shut down his computer, turned off the lights and walked through the offices, giving her the allotted amount of time.

His car was the last one in the parking lot. As he climbed behind the wheel of the German sedan, he saw the handcuffs that he had left on the console. The metal glinted in the sunlight. Before the night was out, he’d have her in them.

He navigated out of the maze of one-way streets and merged onto the crowded interstate. Restlessness and anticipation collided. He’d be there soon enough. The more time he gave her to get ready for him, the better.

Ever since their night together, he’d been unable to get thoughts of her out of his mind. He hoped she knew how much he, too, wanted this. It had been years since he’d had a regular playmate. He wondered if Maggie had felt the same constraints at the Den that he experienced. The pleasure that came with exploring a new woman was gratifying, but to him, getting to know a sub—figuring out her likes, catering to them, finding her limits and shattering them—was even more rewarding.

That the sub was Maggie…

He admired her courage in coming to him. All too well, he understood the restlessness she spoke of. Sex was the ultimate stress reliever for him, and being buried deep inside her body satisfied him in a way that jacking off never would.
