Veronica’s eye’s widened. “Know what?”
Travis took delight in her surprise. “I know a thing or two about domination, too, sweet. You didn’t answer the question.”
“Huh?”
Travis dragged his upper incisors along the fragrant column of her throat and his cock hardened painfully as her essence intoxicated him. “Do you want to be dominated? Or do you simply want to talk?”
He sensed Hank closing in on her other side and she whimpered as Travis stroked his knuckles beneath her breast, teasing her. Her body vibrated and her chest rose and fell with every breath. “Yes. I’m still not sure exactly what you’d want to do with me, but yes, I do. You would do that? Even though you know I’m only visiting?”
Their eyes met behind her head and Hank winked at him. He’d only been back a week but already he felt like Hank could read him.
Hank removed his lips and tilted her chin so she would look into his eyes. “Can I trust you to not speak about what happens between us to anyone?”
She closed her hand around his wrist and nodded, sincerity burning in her eyes. “I promise.”
“Travis has some business to take care of next week. He’s looking into an opportunity that may take him away from Divine again.”
“Really?” She glanced at him and regret flickered in her eyes for a split second before she averted them.
“Yes. I’m retiring from life as a government employee, and this opportunity could be something that I’d really enjoy. I won’t know until I get to the interview next week. I have to admit though, staying in Divine is sounding more tempting by the minute.”
She swallowed and her brows furrowed a bit. “But if you have a chance to work at something you enjoy, you should take it. I know what it’s like to love what you do for a living, and you should have that chance.”
“We’ll see. But I want you to know that I understand about you just visiting. Although I hope you’ll consider extending your visit.” He knew she needed the reassurance, but he was afraid that the path they were treading ever so carefully would lead to pain if they had to part after discovering a connection. In the lifestyle, he had a feeling Veronica was their proverbial needle in a haystack.
“I could stay l–longer. I’ll need to do a little shopping to extend my wardrobe.”
Hank chuckled. “Let Grace know and she can take you shopping. I’m glad you’ll stay for a bit longer. We won’t interrupt your work schedule if you’ll promise…” He brushed his lips against her collarbone and growled softly.
“Promise what?”
“To give control to us while you’re here. Do as we command.”
“Command?” A shudder rippled through her. “Two Doms?” She breathed deep and looked off to the side and then surprised him with a smile as she took another deep breath and said, “Yes. To both of you. This is what I need if I want to move forward with my writing.”
Hank slid a hand up to her throat and closed it around the delicate column, just enough for her to feel snared. “That’s Veronica Benedict, the successful author. What about Veronica Benedict, the woman?”
She gulped nervously and a sense of accomplishment licked up his spine. She was going to be such a pleasure. Lifting her gaze to his, she said, “I have no idea what form your Dominance will take but I’m willing. I consent, as long as we can talk about anything I’m not comfortable with.”
Hank moved his hand and kissed her rapid pulse where his thumb had rested moments earlier. “Of course.”
He rose from the couch and pulled her up with him. “Nika, we’ll always talk with you. Neither of us is interested in limiting your speech unless we’re in a scene and we’ve giving you specific instructions for silence. Even then, we wouldn’t stop you from voicing yourself if you needed to.”
Travis chuckled evilly and added, “Unless you get mouthy.”
“Mouthy?” Veronica murmured and smiled. “I don’t think you’d have to worry about that with me.”
Travis smiled at her, understanding exactly what she was saying, and a little saddened by it. The sass had been trained right out of her by her family. Once she felt comfortable with him, he hoped a little of that sass surfaced. He’d love to see that part of her come out to play.
