that’s in your bed?”
It took a moment to process what he was asking. When I did, I drew a ragged breath as his thick finger dipped between my labia.
“Talon…”
His finger stopped moving. “Did you?”
“Yes.” I exhaled sharply, then blurted my guilty response. “Yes. I used the toy.”
“Did you tease your clit with it? Or did you fuck yourself?”
Oh, hell. I wasn’t sure I was going to survive this.
“My clit,” I admitted.
Talon’s finger began rubbing lightly against my clit. “Like this?”
“Yes … oh, God. Like that,” I continued because I didn’t want him to stop. “I saw you … oh, God, yes … I saw you on the balcony… It was hot… I was… Oh, God.”
“Did you fuck yourself?”
“No.”
“Did you want to?”
I shook my head. “I … I’ve never enjoyed it. Not doing it to myself.”
Talon slipped his finger inside me and I whimpered, rocking forward to take him deeper.
“Talon … oh, God … don’t stop. Please don’t stop.”
“What did you see?”
Last night. He was referring to last night.
Oh, God.
“I saw you and your submissives—”
“Possessions,” he corrected.
“Your … possessions. I saw you … fucking one of them.”
“Did you like watching?”
I rocked my hips faster, fucking myself on his finger. “Yes. I liked it.”
Talon added a second finger and I cried out, my orgasm just out of reach.
“And?”
“And I wished it’d been me,” I confessed. “I wished it was me.”
“You’re a dirty girl, aren’t you?”
“Yes.” I tried to impale myself on his fingers, continuing to rock, desperate for release.
“You’re my dirty girl,” he groaned against my neck, continuing to finger fuck me, his lips trailing over my skin as I panted and moaned.
I was dangerously close. So, so close.
“I want you to come all over my hand, dirty girl.” He nipped my skin. “I want to feel your pussy squeeze my fingers.”
Between the fingering, the sultry voice, the nickname, and the crude request, I was a goner.
I came and I came hard.
FIFTEEN
TALON
Leaving Braelyn hadn’t been an easy feat, but considering how intense the moment had been, I knew it was necessary. Somehow I managed to keep from mounting her like an animal and fucking us both senseless. For her sake, not mine.
Dirty girl.
I was still shocked by what I’d learned about her during that too-brief encounter, and it had me curious. Wondering just how dirty she really was. I got the feeling I had hardly tapped the surface. Braelyn’s desires appeared to run deep and hot.
Not that I wanted to be thinking about it now. Not if I expected to wind down at all.
Now that the house was closed down, the possessions in training tucked away in the Owners’ Retreat, I could finally relax, although turning in for the evening wasn’t an option for me.
Not yet.
Not after the intensity of what had transpired between us a short time ago.
I opted for a drink on the veranda. Corvin was once again at his post, sticking close, at my beck and call until I decided to turn in. It was a responsibility tasked to each of them one day per week. On their assigned day, the one on duty would remain at my side at all times, tending to my every whim. They considered it a reward. I considered it a necessity.
While the other six would finish their chores and turn in, heading to their private quarters on the fourth floor, doing as they pleased with their downtime, I would have the option of using Corvin or sending him up to bed. I decided I wasn’t quite ready to put him away for the night.
“Prep the pool area,” I instructed as he stood near the doorway leading into the house. “You will join me.”
It wasn’t a request, but Corvin wouldn’t expect me to request anything of him.
I waited a couple of minutes after Corvin made his way down to the pool house so he could get things in order for my arrival. He would wait for me, regardless of how long I took, because what he did next was up to me. In fact, everything was up to me. What they ate, when they slept, the chores they performed, how much sex they had. I controlled every aspect of their lives, and they expected that from me. And I thrived on it. I was their Owner, a role I relished. It was my true nature, the very essence of my existence. I couldn’t imagine a world where I wasn’t in control, where I wasn’t dominating those around me.
It wasn’t so much I wanted to
