She laughed. “You sound like me.”
“Yeah.” He grinned. “I want to see you, but not just for play. I’m not looking for any casual play partners anymore. I’m looking for something more serious.”
She put her hands in her lap.
“Serious how?”
“Serious like, dating, a real relationship—dinners, late night movies, walks on the beach… if you like that sort of thing.”
“Rides on your motorcycle?” she asked coyly. “I recognized it when I pulled into the lot this evening. When I saw you, I assumed it was yours.”
“It is.”
“So, you’ll take me on a ride?” The tightness in her chest started to ease.
“If you’re a good girl,”—he nodded—“then yeah.”
“So, you don’t only play in the bedroom?” She braced herself to be let down. So far, James seemed to have everything she never even knew she wanted. But now that she’d found this part of herself, she didn’t want to barricade it in one room.
He held her gaze for a long pause.
“No. I don’t want to stay in the bedroom anymore. I’ve done that, and it doesn’t work for me. I don’t want to stop being the Dominant when I put my pants back on.”
The boulder on her chest rolled off. “I don’t want that either.” She paused. “I think.”
He grinned. “I know you’re only figuring this all out for yourself now, and I won’t force you. We’ll go slow. Being the Dom outside the bedroom is new for me too. So, we take our time, feel things out, make up our rules as we go along.”
He made it sound so easy, so appealing.
“And if it doesn’t work?” she asked.
He lifted a shoulder. “Then we fix it. Or we don’t. But I want to try.”
She returned her hands onto the table. “Yeah. Me too.”
He grabbed her hands and squeezed. “Good. Let’s get our stuff so we can swap our numbers, then we can talk about your punishment.”
He slid out of the booth and pulled her with him in one movement.
“My punishment?” she asked as he led her from the club toward the lockers at the front where her purse and phone were.
“Yeah.” He wrapped his arm around her shoulders. “You didn’t think you’d be allowed to bark out orders like that and get away with it, did you?”
“That’s not really fair. I mean, we were in the scene. And it’s over now. You can’t really do that,” she said as they reached the private lockers.
“Sure I can.” He placed his hand on her ass, squeezing her cheek. A ripple of excitement shot through her.
Before she could come up with something to respond with, more people poured out of the club. She gathered her things and met James at the doors.
“Were you kidding? About the punishment?” she asked as he led her to her car.
“I never joke about a punishment.” He leaned against her car, his phone in his hand. “What’s your number so I can text you?”
She rattled off the number, staring at the casual look on his face. It was doubtful she didn’t look a complete mess. Aside from her body still reacting to all the sensations from the evening, now her heart fluttered like she was fifteen again and being asked to homecoming.
“Okay. All done. I’m going to follow you home on my bike. I want to be sure you get there all right. I don’t have to go inside, but I want to make sure you drive okay after all this. It was a lot tonight.”
To say the very least.
