“So if I keep being bratty you’ll do this again?”
“I haven’t started yet and you already want to add more?” He grabbed my hair again, pulling my face close to his. “You’re brilliant. Kind. Beautiful. Talented. Like hell am I going to let you forget it. I’ll spank it into you every day if I need to, and fucking enjoy it.”
The temperature in the room had to have risen ten degrees, because I was sweating and very sure I would enjoy it too. My mind didn’t want to face what he was saying, because it was easier not to. But he didn’t let me look away—not from him and not from myself.
“Can I trust you to understand the lesson? Or do I need you to speak it every time I redden your perfect ass?”
“Fuck.” I rocked my hips again, and he held me still so I couldn’t get the friction I desperately needed. “I got it.”
“You sure?”
“Yes,” I said. “Promise.”
“Mmm.” He dragged his mouth up to his bite mark and kissed me there, setting what was little left of me ablaze. “Know that if it’s not true, we’ll have to do this all over again with you saying it every time. It will be much slower and probably hurt more.”
That shouldn’t have made me want it, but it did.
Gabe lifted me off his lap, turning me to lie over his knees. Cool air shifted over my skin as he ripped my tights further, exposing my ass completely. It tickled the wetness between my thighs too, but Gabriel ignored my arousal.
One stroke of his hands across my skin, savoring it. I shuddered, arching into the touch. “I think my Omegaiseager for this,” he said. “Even if it’s discipline.”
“Yes, Alpha.”
“Would you like me to tell you how many?”
I clenched my thighs, and it wasn’t even close to enough. Did I want to know? Waiting for it to be over? I shook my head before I spoke. “No.”
What I needed was to sink into it and know that it was over when he decided, no matter the debt I’d racked up. I needed to trust him and take what he gave me.
“All right.” Another stroke of his hand. “I love you, little one. Remember that.”
The first hit of his hand stung, morphing into a burning pain that eased into heat. It wasn’t too bad, and I thought it would be easy.
What a mistake.
Gabriel spanked me, every fall of his hand adding more pain and more heat. One hand on my back held me in place when I tried to jerk away, but as much as it hurt, I needed it. We both did. The pure satisfaction pouring through Gabriel’s bond was enough to turn the heat into something else entirely.
But every slap reached down inside me and grabbed a little of the pain and guilt, pulling it to the surface. My eyes burned along with my ass, emotions rising that I couldn’t fully control.
“It’s okay, Sloane,” Gabe said. “I’ve got you.”
The words allowed me to give in and sob. Just like I had in his bed that night. How many times would I have to purge this for it to stay gone? It was like a poison that crept back into my mind. Subtle. Sneaky. Insidious. I didn’t want the feelings I had about it. I wanted themgone.
So I cried, making an absolute fucking mess out of myself.
I had no idea how many times he spanked me. It felt both eternal and faster than light when he finally stopped, smoothing his hand over my burning skin. Slowly, he turned me upright, carrying me back to perch on the edge of his desk. The feeling of it made me hiss.
“You’ll feel it for a few days. Hopefully it will help make the lesson stick.”
“Yeah.”
Gabe got some tissues and cleaned my face, kissing my forehead through my sniffles. “Feel better?”
“Yes,” I admitted. I felt lighter and clearer.Waymore solid.
“Good. But before I make you feel even better, we’re not done.”
A whine escaped. “We’re not?”
