“She screamed so loud with excitement when I called that I’m surprised I’m not deaf. So, no, she doesn’t mind.”

“I feel bad I don’t have anything to bring and everything is closed now. I would have baked had I known I’d be going with you, or at least brought a bottle of wine.”

“You know that’s not something you have to worry about with my parents. They are the most casual people in the world and would never expect a thing.”

“Still, it’s Christmas Eve and I’m crashing their dinner empty-handed.”

I got up and walked over to her, placing a kiss on top of her head. “Meet me in the kitchen when you are ready.”

I left her to finish and headed straight for my wine rack. I know Kyra, and it would continue to eat her up throughout the night if I didn’t find something for her to bring.

When she walked out of my room dressed in a tight black long sleeve dress that came to her knees and thigh-high boots, I wanted to turn her around and take her back to bed. I knew for a fact the back of the dress was completely open and her breasts were bare underneath it. She had taken my direction so easily at breakfast, it made me want to push and see how far I could get her to go. When we arrived at my place, I didn’t think twice about taking her bags to my room as we walked right by the guest room. If she was staying, then she would be with me. I made sure of that this morning.

“You look amazing.”

Her head tilted down but not quick enough to hide the blush and sweet smile she had. “Thank you.”

“Here, I got this out for you to bring to my parent’s house.”

She walked over and peeked into the black gift bag I pulled out of a junk drawer and smiled up at me. “Thank you, Jack. I seriously felt like shit about not thinking of grabbing something from my place.”

“The downside of living in a small town has always been the hours that our stores keep. Don’t get me wrong, I like that Danny closes up like his dad used to for holidays, but that always means a long ass ride for last-minute things.”

“Well, this will work, even if it is more expensive than anything I’ve ever bought in my life.”

I reached for her, unable to help myself, and pulled her body to mine. “I know plenty of ways you can repay me.”

“I’m sure you do. But if you mess up my lipstick then you’ll get nothing from me,” she said with a laugh.

“I like the red, but I’d prefer to see it on my cock and smeared down your face than perfected on your lips right now.”

She tried to push me away but failed. “Jack! Come on. We are going to be late.”

“We are already late.” I dipped my head and pulled down the neckline of her dress, sucking on her collarbone until she moaned and her arms came up around me.

“That’s much better,” I murmured, “Maybe we skip Christmas Eve all together. It’s not like we won’t see everyone in the morning.”

“No way,” she said, stepping back from me, “You told your mom we are coming and I won’t let her down. Besides, we have a lot to discuss before we end up back in bed together.”

She was right. I didn’t want to admit it, but we needed to talk. I wanted to fuck her, but I also wanted to tease her, punish her and edge the shit out of her, so if we were going to do all those things again, then we needed some ground rules.

“Fine. Let’s go.” I took her by the hand and led her out to the garage.

The snow was already pretty deep, and it was falling at a steady pace. It was days like these that I was thankful for the attached garage I built on to my house and the oversized truck I drove regularly.

“I can’t believe how much this land has changed since you all bought it.”

“It’s been a lot of work, but it’s been worth it,” I said as we turned onto the main road, “When we invested in it, our plan was to develop it for our family. Nick and Kane are within walking distance and we just started construction on the girls’ houses further down the road in the fall. We are at a standstill until the ground thaws, but at least we made some progress. We have enough land for all of us and someday I hope mom and dad will move out of their small house in town and out to the countryside with us, but we will see. They are rather stubborn.”

“You say that like you aren’t stubborn yourself.”

I looked over at her and couldn’t help but smile. My inability to budge was one thing we always argued over, but now knowing she liked to sub, I had to wonder what had changed. “Why submission?”

“Okay… so we are going to have this conversation now?”

“Might as well start. Right?”

“I guess. I would ask you why dominance, but I honestly couldn’t see you as anything else. Your stubbornness wouldn’t allow for someone else to take control, now would it?”
