Ellie moved to the coffee pot, poured herself another cup and then filled Logan’s before carrying them to the table.She sat so she could face him.
“Are you off work today?”
He glanced over at her, then back at the food.“Yes.Boss left me a voicemail.I’m off until next Monday.”
“Good.”
“Oh, really?”He turned off the burner, covered the food with lids, turned, and stalked toward her.
Ellie swallowed at the look of determination on his face.“You need to rest.”
“I need to remind you who is dominant in this relationship.”
She blinked.“Just because you’re dominant eighty percent of the time doesn’t mean I’m wrong.”She pushed her chair back as he continued his predatory trek toward her.
“Eighty percent?”He leaned over her and put his hands on the back of the chair, trapping her.
“Even you need time off.”The heat coming off his body enveloped hers.Had she poked the bear a little too hard?
“That doesn’t mean I’m not your Dom.”
“That’s not what I said.”
His eyebrows rose.
Ellie could barely breathe.Her body was reacting to Logan’s actions.He was in Dom mode, and her body loved it, and if she was honest, she did too.
“Explain what you meant, then.”
“What I meant was you can’t always be dominant on the job or in life.”
“You think there’s an off switch?”
“I don’t know about an off switch, but I think you would get tired after a while.You need to relax and rest, too, without worrying about anyone else.You need to let go now and then.And remember: You promised me autonomy on some decisions.”
He continued to stare at her, and Ellie didn’t know what else to say.
“That’s very insightful of you.”He straightened and made his way into the kitchen where he dished up their food and brought the plates over to the table.He placed her plate in front of her, then sat across from her with his.“I think today we should talk more about how our D/s relationship is going to continue.”
“D/s?”She hadn’t heard that acronym yet.
“Dominant/submissive.”
“I’d like that.Logan, I’m afraid I’ll lose myself in this relationship.I lost myself once before.I won’t do that again.”
“I won’t let you lose yourself.”He reached over and placed his hand over hers.“We’re partners in this.”
“We are?Even when I get scared?”
“Especially then.I want you to feel free to speak your mind.Relationships are always better with open and honest communication.”
“I won’t argue with that.”She couldn’t because he was right.She picked up a piece of bacon with her free hand and nibbled on it.
“Eat.We both need fuel.”He withdrew his hand, and she missed his touch.
Ellie nodded.The eggs were light and fluffy, the bacon crisp, and even the toast was the right color on both sides.Was there anything this man couldn’t do?
