“I think so.” She wiggled her fingers, then lowered her arms to her sides. Jared had already straightened.

“You did very well today, but then, I imagined you would. Your mind bought into the fantasy and that was wonderful.”

“What?” She shook her head, trying to clear away the sensual haze. “You’re ending our session now?” She couldn’t believe it. Her body was on fire, and while she’d just climaxed, she wanted him in her.

“We’ve been at this for over an hour now.”

“An hour?” How had so much time passed? “Please, you can’t leave me like this.”

“Like what, Angie?”

“Hot, wanting. I need your cock in me.”

“And you will have it.”

She smiled.

“When I’m ready to give it you and not before. Today was about listening to your body and letting your mind enjoy words and sensations. Dinner will be at five.” He started for the door.

“Don’t you dare leave me.” He couldn’t leave her abandoned. Not now. Not again.

Jared turned, and the impact of his stare caused her to suck in a breath. “Don’t forget who is in charge here. Keep it up, and I’ll paddle your ass until you can’t sit down.”

She drew her lip between her teeth. “I apologize, but Jared, how can you do this to me?”

“I’ve engaged your mind and body together. And don’t forget, you’ve climaxed.” He left the room with a wave.

Angie groaned as a tremor went through her body. He was right; she’d orgasmed without him even touching her. But he left her needing him. What kind of woman was she to allow that to happen? Her frustration level built along with her embarrassment.

Logically, she knew there was no reason to be embarrassed. He wanted her, yet for him, the more important issue was her climax, and he’d made it happen without even touching her. Not the way she wanted, but according to his plans. She should feel coveted, but the only thing her brain remembered was her wanting and him walking out the door. The not-so-wanton woman inside her cringed at her actions, and the abandoned side warned her Jared would never stay.

Chapter Five

Jaredwhistledwhilehetossed the salad. He hadn’t been at peace like this in a very long time. He stood at the counter, enjoying the warmth from the oven where their dinner cooked. This was all because of Angie.

His cock tightened. She was so responsive to him, so alive and so fuckable. He couldn’t wait until he could sink his dick into her pussy. Lord, even his vocabulary was a little more graphic with her.

In their session today, she’d been so willing to obey him that he’d barely held on to his control. Yes, there were times where she wanted to defy him—he could see it in her body—but her submissive side proved stronger.

And how she didn’t even realize what was happening to her pleased him more than he’d imagined. He was able to make her climax with words and the lightest of touches. That hadn’t happened with other women before.

The timer on the oven dinged. He pulled the food out and put it on a hot pad before he carried it to the table along with the salad bowl. Angie was sitting at the table already, wearing what looked like a sundress, but he could see the outline of the black teddy underneath. He was surprised she was still wearing it.

Jared served up the salad and main dish, then paused. Tension thickened the air with her silence. He stared at her as he took his seat. Her body was stiff, too controlled, and her hands lay in her lap where he couldn’t see them.

“Are you feeling okay?” he asked.

“Yes and no.” She captured her lip between her teeth, and he forced himself to stay in his seat and not kiss her silly.

“What’s bothering you?” He poured her a glass of wine.

She was silent until he set the bottle down and stared at her.

“You made me climax with only your words.”

“Yes.” He had a feeling there was more than she was saying, but this was their first day, and it wasn’t the time to peel back the deeper layers. He’d ferret out what she wasn’t saying later.

“That’s never happened before.” Her cheeks were pink.
