Temptation - Leigh Lennon Page 0,47

off, there is foam under the leather, and I have three in the closet for various sized women or men.” His hand startles me when he squeezes my knee. “What are you thinking, Kitten?”

“She looks happy.” It’s hard to explain because I don’t know her from Adam, yet it’s clear there’s a peace in her eyes.

“People choose this lifestyle and whether they’re a sub, a switch, or a Dom for many reasons. She is happy. Plus, her husband loves her fiercely.” My mind is on Chadwick’s words when a loud smack has my attention back on the couple in front of us.

“Tell me, slave, what do you want? What do you need from me tonight?”

“Hurt me, Master. Mark me. I want to see your love on my legs tomorrow.”

I learned from the last time not to make any noise, but Chadwick leans down when I shudder at her words. “It’s always consensual, Kitten.”

The flogger hits her bare ass again and again. As quickly as he smacks her ass, he’s down on his knees worshipping Nola, rubbing the marks he made on her. He pulls her off and adjusts the little bench she’s kneeling on and moves part of the contraption back, so Nola is almost lying down. Her husband pulls down his pants and enters her with such velocity, I’m stunned. “Don’t you fucking come, not until you’re granted permission, slave.”

Her moans are deeper than the woman before. “As I take you hard and deep, tell them what you love about this.”

Her head moves to me, her eyes talking directly to my soul. “I don’t have to think, I feel. Everything he does is because of me and just for me.” She, too, has labored breathing when she turns to her lover, looking back in his eyes. And it had been the same words of Lila Barron from earlier.

“Come, slave, soak my cock.” And like Felicity, Nola’s screams invade the room.

Chadwick pulls me from the loveseat. “Let’s give them some time alone.”

He leads me up the stairwell to his apartment, opening the door, pointing at the hallway. “What? That’s it for the night?” I ask. His lips fall on mine, and when I open them, a little peck is all I get. Fuck, this man hasn’t ever really kissed me yet.

“Well, for us, Kitten, yes. I have some work I need to take care of. I’ll have the kitchen send you dinner, and I promise no PB&J.” He kisses me on the forehead and leaves. With the pull of the door, I slide down it, willing myself not to cry. Not only am I confused, but I’m also horny as hell.

Chapter Twenty-Two

Chadwick

When I arrive back to the apartment, she’s asleep in the guest room. Peeking in on her for a moment, I hear the smallest little snore leaving her lips, and when she crinkles her nose, it’s fucking adorable. I’ve used this word so much in the past three weeks, but there is really no better way to describe Eve than adorable. And hot, and beautiful, and so very frustrating. But mostly just fucking adorable.

I learned from last night to let her know I wouldn’t be in until late. Several new members need my approval, and I prefer to do it on-site where we have better firewalls.

Opening the door at three a.m., I’m glad she’s in bed. I’m not ready to have the talk with her about tonight. I have one more thing up my sleeve before we touch on the topic of her becoming mine.

I don’t make it to my room. My mind is on overdrive when sleep takes me on the couch with the thoughts of Eve being the only woman I could give myself to.

I’m woken to Eve’s hand on my cheek. “Hey, sleepyhead, you’re still in your clothes from yesterday.” Sitting up, I take in her beauty, and the realization of how I can’t let her go hits me. But I can’t give up all control at the same time. “Are you okay?” she asks.

I sit up, scrubbing my face. “Yeah.” I look at my watch and see the time. “Oh, shit. We have plans today. Get in the shower and make it quick. We’re on our way to the airport.”

Her eyes narrow in on me. “Um, what?”

My eyebrows rise a little. “Wanna try again, Kitten?”

She rolls her eyes at me. I’ve not required her to call me Sir, but today, I want to challenge her a little. “Um, what, Sir?” Her sarcasm is held at
