That’s when I closed my eyes. This was going to be painful.
The first crack of the wood against my bottom told me I was right. When he issued three more, moving from one side to the other, I moved from foot to foot, ready to hop.
“Ouch!” I exclaimed, already panting.
“Yep. Spankings are supposed to hurt. Maybe you’ll remember when I give you an order you will follow it from now on.”
“Yes,sir.”
He laughed softly then cracked the wood down at least six times. I was already starting to lose count. The pain was terrible, but the wetness between my legs continued to increase. Even my nipples were aching to the point the pain matched what was being doled out on my already bruised buttocks. I whimpered a few times, the sound purposely exaggerated. His response was two even harder slaps of the brush. My entire torso was on fire, stars floating in front of my eyes. I wasn’t certain if I’d ever experienced such raw anguish or the sense of floating on air. It was crazy and wonderful.
And I knew I deserved the harsh punishment.
Snake thought he was a monster. But I hoped he’d come to realize he was a true savior, a man with a heart of gold. I closed my eyes as the spanking continued, relishing our closeness, an electric connection that refused to be denied or shattered by our ugly pasts or demons plaguing our minds.
We’d found each other, two broken souls who were finally flourishing in the present, maybe even able to conquer the future.
And I’d never loved anyone as much as I did Ricardo Garcia.
A decorated Marine.
A lover of furry creatures.
My lover.
My friend.
The man I wanted to spend the rest of my life with.
“Ten more,” he said, his tone gravelly. Unforgiving.
The man was dangerous and rugged, exactly what this girl needed to heal her soul.
A single whimper escaped my mouth as he counted off the last few cracks of the hard wood, but my soul was already free.
When I heard him toss the implement aside, a shiver blasted into my core. I was lightheaded, consumed with need.
As he brushed the tips of his fingers from one side of my bottom to the other, finally sliding a single long digit down the crack of my ass, there wasn’t a part of me that didn’t long to surrender to his needs.
Totally and permanently.
“You did very well,” he whispered as he tugged my curls aside, pressing his heated lips against my neck.
“You’re a bad man.”
“Didn’t I tell you that before?”
There was no reason a single tear slipped past my lashes, but even as it did, I couldn’t help but smile. He’d rocked my world and in turn, maybe I’d saved his.
As he issued a deep growl, he pulled me into his arms, turning me around to face him. “I need you.”
“You do, huh?”
“Always and forever.”
“Why?” I pressed my lips against the tip of his nose before darting my tongue around his lips.
He pulled his head away, the look in his eyes that of a primal beast. “Because I love you and because you’re mine.” The moment he captured my mouth, I wrapped my hand around the back of his neck, digging my nails in. Maybe a part of me was concerned he’d slip away, and I wanted to hold onto him as well as this special moment.
