Ethan POV.Opening the final door at the end of the corridor, I released her hand, turned the light on, and locked the door, i turned to face her to assess her reactions. This was my private room. The only time i used this room was for the woman I intended to keep. Only a couple of women had even come close to getting inside here until this woman requested permission to join the club.“Where are we?” she asked, her big beautiful eyes looking around, taking in the view of my most sacred room.I noticed she stayed away from the bed, keeping it to her back as she rounded to look at me.“This is my personal, private room. From now on, you come to this club, we will be here.” I told her, folding my arms, waiting for her.“No, we need to be in view of others.”“In front of others you hold yourself back. Outside you are not yourself, and you are always afraid of someone noticing you. I’ve seen the way you are. You want to watch what happens within the club to make sure the men and women are
"I’ve given you more in the last year than you have ever gotten elsewhere. I see the look in your eyes, Emma. You don't allow me to bring you to orgasm, yet the pleasure is there in your eyes, the way you let me hold you. There’s much you can accuse me of, but caring and seeing to your needs is not one of them.” He withdrew his hand. “You’ve been through a lot of crap. I want to know what it is, everything"“No, I’m not telling you anything.”“You feel your wolf right now? How she is pacing along the walls of your mind, curious yet holding herself back?”“How did you—”“She wants to trust me, to trust this instinct inside her. You have put yourself in danger, and we are not going anywhere else until you tell me what.” He stared at me knowing he needed to win this battle. “Tonight, you’re coming home with me. We’re going to get to the bottom of your problems. No one lies at my house. We wl be totally alone, and we can explore your issues.”“No, I’m not going anywhere with you.” I shook
Emma's POV."What are you doing?" I stared at his hand where he held my palm inside his. My dark flesh stood out in contrast to his pale skin, but our different skin colors did not bother me. No, what struck me was the way he held me, He was strong and powerful, and yet he held me as if i was delicate. I was anything but delicate. He didn’t hurt me. he simply held me steady.What was he trying to do?“Look at me, Emma”I lifted my gaze to his, confused by what was happening inside me, On the one hand i wanted to continue letting his fingers sink into my flesh to try to cause pain, and yet, i wanted what Ethan could gave me, Would he even understand what was happening to me?"You’ve been disobedient to me today, Before we go to my house, you are going to get punished, and then you are going to call your father.” he said, I could not describe the kind of fire I saw in his eyes, I could not describe the look he was giving to me.When I went to speak, he pressed a finger to my lips to sto
He touched my ankle and withdrew his hand when his touch became too much for me, i didn’t know how he knew when to release me.“Thank you, Sir,”i said.“I didn’t give you permission to speak.” He slapped my ass causing me to yelp. I had learned to make the right noises even if i didn’t feel any pain. “You’ll only speak when spoken to.”I kept her lips shut, my pussy was burning, the lips of my sex drenched from the shock of his spank, hiis palm was large, covering as much of my ass as he could. What would it be like to give in and let him touch me? The very thought shook me a little again, I had never been curious about a more intimate touch in my life.The tips of his fingers skimmed up my calf, leaving me again as he moved around the room. I had never been on a bed in his company before, those was the first time I would be lying on his bed, cuffed, and helpless.“You’re scared of intimacy, Emma. I want to know why, but tonight you’re going to remain quiet while I talk. Do I need to
Ethan's POVI struck her twice more with the cane, surprised that she kept up with the counting. She was such a good sub. I wouldn’t trade her in for anyone.She likes pain to the point of bleeding.In some transitions from human to wolf, the line between pleasure and pain got switched, I heard of some men and women who could take so much pain they could be on the verge of death and it wouldn’t affect them emotionally. The workings of a wolf body surprised me, Emma wasn’t strange or different from many of them. She was afraid, untutored, and alone. Her wolf was torn in two between wanting me and being afraid. I wasn’t an idiot. Emma had done something to cause this problem.Putting the cane down on the floor, I stared at her body hating the sight of the clothes, I would give anything to have her spread out and naked, her dark flesh revealed for me to touch, caress, or punish.'Wait, have patience. She will be ours. " My wolf gave me a subtle reminder.My wolf passed along the walls o
"Honey, are you sure you’re okay? You don’t sound fine.”“I’m sure. I’m fine. Nothing is wrong with me. I’m calling so you don’t worry and send out a search party.” She forced a laugh, I watched her knowing in my heart I needed to fix what had gone wrong during her transition.“Okay, honey. I’ll see you when you get back. Keep in touch.”“I will.”They said their goodbyes, and she put the phone back in the cradle.“Do you feel pain?” i asked. I didn’t know why, but my gut was telling me something wasn’t right, every other sub would be wincing at the spanking I hai given her, yet emma didn’t respond or show any sign of being aware of it.She looked up at me, "Yes, I feel pain. My dad doesn’t have a true mate of his own, he settled down for the strongest female in the pack. She’s my mother.”“You’ve never mentioned your mother.”“She’s not the kind of person I like to talk about.” She dropped her gaze again, and i sensed the hate inside her.“Why?”She blew out a breath before running h
I turned to look at him. “I’m not a gold digger, and neither do I hope to make a claim on anything.”“I didn’t say you did. Sometimes, female wolves like to see that they can be taken care of. Does your wolf like what she sees?” He stood right behind me with his palm lightly resting on my back, sending a jolt of desire rushing through me.I paused as i listened to my wolf, before replying him, “No, we don’t think you’re a better catch or anything. We are worried what you owning this big house means.”“Why would it mean anything?”“You would be surprised how dangerous large houses and big men are.” i stared up at the house feeling … happy, safe? I didn’t know which emotion to trust or to savor, Ethan would not hurt me, I had to slowly let my mind accept the realization, He had been my Dom for a year and he never left me scared, nervous but never scared.“I’m going to know all of those secrets you are hiding,” he said.“They are not secrets, they are just memories of a time I would like
"Are we in a scene right now?” i asked, unsure about the proper protocol i needed to give him.“Would you feel safer being in a scene?” he asked.I shook her head. “No.”“Then we’re not in a scene. Were just two people, Ethan and Emma for tonight.”Relief swamped me. I could handle simply being a woman sharing a meal with Ethan.Mate.He bent over to grab something out of the fridge, I could not take my eyes off his ass, It was tight and firm.“You’re checking out my ass,” he said, smiling as he turned to face me"“Am not.” embarrassment made my cheek turned red wirh flame, I almost wanted to sink into the floor, how could he be so raw with his words.“Don’t worry, Emma, I won’t put you over my knee.”I knew he was trying to tease me, and couldn’t help but smile. “I like the thought of going over your knee.”He laughed, throwing his head back.Yes, i could handle being alone with him for a few days.**********Ethan's POV.I started to cut the chicken, and with each inhale I could sme
