As if she’d timed it, Alex appeared naked at the door of the playroom, a shy smile on her face.
“There you are.” Liam smiled back. “Just in time. There’s been a change of plans. I was going to work with you on anal relaxation but first we have some business to take care of.”
Alex stepped into the room, her expression quizzical.
“Daniel is in need of punishment. I’m going to use you to help deliver that punishment.”
Alex’s eyes widened. “Me?”
“You.” Liam grinned. “Come over beside Daniel and I’ll show you what I want you to do.”
Alex obeyed without a word. Good girl.
“As part of Daniel’s punishment, you’re going to use that dildo to penetrate his ass. Daniel needs to be reminded of his place and of the fact I can use him, any part of him, any way I wish.”
Alex stepped back, shaking her head. “Oh no. No. I couldn’t possibly—”
“Are you saying no to me?” His voice was quiet but laced with steel. “Do I have two willful, disobedient slaves in my house?”
Alex paled and then flushed. “No, Sir,” she whispered.
“Then get over here and do as you’re told.”
With obvious reluctance, Alex knelt beside the prostrated Daniel. She picked up the tube of lubricant and squeezed a huge amount onto the tip of the dildo, spreading globs of it down the sides.
Liam couldn’t help but laugh. “It’s a phallus, not a watermelon. He’s quite accustomed to having his ass used, don’t worry. You’re not going to hurt him. This is more a symbolic punishment.”
Daniel hadn’t moved during this conversation. Liam could only guess what was going through his head. “Spread your cheeks for her, slave boy.”
After a moment’s hesitation Daniel reached back and did as ordered, revealing the tight pucker between his cheeks.
Gingerly, Alex touched the head of the dildo to the entrance, her lips pressed together in concentration. “Go on,” Liam said impatiently. She pushed the head of it inside and turned to Liam with large, beseeching eyes.
Shaking his head with amused exasperation, he knelt on Daniel’s other side and put his large hand over her small one. Guiding her, together they pressed the black gooey phallus in a slow, smooth motion, not stopping until it was buried to the hilt in Daniel’s hot, sexy ass. Daniel had maintained his position beautifully. Liam burned with a quiet pride but he wasn’t done yet reminding Daniel of his place.
He let go of Alex’s hand. “Daniel, make sure that stays in place while you lick Alex’s ass.”
That got a response from Daniel, who jerked his head up. “Liam. Sir.” The protest was ripe in his voice.
“Yes?” He stared at Daniel, daring him with his gaze to say another word. “Do you have something to say? Do you have a problem with licking the asshole of my other possession, if that’s what pleases me? Do you? Are you too good for that now? Do I only own you when it suits you? Tell me now.”
He watched the play of emotions and knew Daniel was struggling. Liam didn’t usually engage in humiliation. But if he didn’t exert his ownership in no uncertain terms over not only Alex but Daniel, this still-tenuous threesome would fall apart.
“No, Sir,” Daniel whispered, his face crimson.
“Good. Alex. Kneel in front of Daniel, ass in the air. Spread your cheeks same as he did.”
If possible, Alex’s face was even redder than Daniel’s. Wisely, she refrained from adding her protest to Daniel’s. Her fingers were trembling as she gripped her lush, round ass cheeks and parted them, revealing the tiny pink asterisk between them.
Daniel knelt up and leaned forward, burying his face in the cleft of Alex’s ass. Alex fell forward with a soft gasp. Daniel grabbed her hips to hold her steady. Liam’s cock throbbed.
At the urging of his aching cock, he unbuckled his belt. Unzipping his pants, he reached in and grabbed the shaft, massaging it while watching his sexy charges perform for him. He considered stripping and kneeling behind Daniel, fucking him then and there but decided that would change it from punishment to pleasure. Time for that later.
When he was satisfied his point was made, he touched Daniel’s shoulder. “Enough. Punishment is over. Kneel up.”
Daniel at once let go of Alex and sat back on his haunches, wiping his face with the back of his hand. Though Daniel’s face was still flushed, Liam noted with wry amusement his rock-hard shaft. “Slut,” he said with affection. “I want that dildo to stay in your ass until I say so, got it?”
“Yes, Sir. Thank you, Sir.”
“You’re welcome, Daniel. I’m glad we understand each other now.” Daniel leaned forward without permission, impulsively kissing the top of Liam’s foot. Liam didn’t stop him, aware this expression of submission was heartfelt.
He suddenly felt nearly weak with relief things between Daniel and him seemed to be back where they were supposed to be. He had known there were going to be bumps in the road of their experiment with another person. He would need to stay vigilant and attentive, always keeping the lines of communication open between all three of them.
Alex was still kneeling though she’d dropped her hands from her ass cheeks, her arms resting limply by her sides. “That’s just how I want you,” Liam informed her. “Don’t move.”
He went back to the toy chest and returned with a smaller dildo. “Daniel’s going to fuck you in the ass with this rubber cock. I want to see how well you handle it.”
Daniel, his own dildo still nestled firmly in his ass, scooted toward Alex and took the offered phallus from Liam. He lubricated it and looked toward Liam, who understood his unspoken question. “Go ahead, you may direct her.”
Daniel nodded. “Spread your ass for me.” Alex gripped her cheeks and pulled them apart. Her face was turned from Liam but he could see it in the mirror that lined the opposite wall. Her eyes were squeezed shut, her lips pressed into a flat line, her entire body radiating tension.
Liam knelt beside the girl and stroked her back. “Calm yourself. Daniel knows what he’s doing. You’ve done this before. Relax your body and open your mind. Submit with the grace we know you possess. Remember, take deep, slow breaths and focus on your desire to submit.”
She relaxed a little under his touch, her features easing.
Liam smiled toward Daniel, who smiled back, though his eyes remained sad. Liam sighed inwardly. He would need to do a better job to show Daniel how much he was cherished.
Daniel placed the head of the lubricated dildo between Alex’s spread cheeks and pushed it gently past her opening. Alex gave a tiny yelp but held her position. He eased it about halfway in and then withdrew it nearly all the way. When he pressed again, it slipped in more easily.
He worked slowly and carefully, sliding the phallus in and out of Alex’s ass until her muscles were completely relaxed. Liam noted Daniel’s erection and smiled. “You want to fuck her in the ass right now, don’t you?”
“Yes, Sir,” Daniel said eagerly. Then, moderating his tone, he added, “If it pleases you, Sir.”
Liam pretended to ponder. “It doesn’t. You haven’t earned it yet.”
He walked again to the chest and chose two anal plugs. These he tossed toward Daniel, who caught them neatly. “I want you both to wear a plug during dinner and you’re to remain naked throughout the meal. You will each insert the other’s plug and then come to my study and bend over to show me.”
Daniel’s eyes were on his, his pupils dilated wide, his lips parted, his cock still hard. Alex remained prostrate, the dildo buried between her cheeks. Liam strode to the door and left the room.
~*~
Daniel barely spoke during dinner. Though he recognized and accepted that it was Liam’s prerogative to punish him as he had, he couldn’t seem to let go of the anger roiling inside him over being humiliated in front of Alex.
If Liam noticed Daniel’s silence, he didn’t comment on it. He ate heartily and complimented the cooking as he always did. After a large pi
ece of cheesecake with fresh raspberries in a light glaze, he pushed back from the table with a contented sigh. “That was delicious, Daniel. I couldn’t even put another bite in my pocket.”
He smiled, and in spite of himself, Daniel smiled back. He loved cooking for Liam. He loved making him happy.
Liam rose to his feet. “I’ll be in my study. After you clean the kitchen, you may both remove your plugs. Daniel, please come to see me when you’re ready.” He turned to Alex. “Alex, you will wait for us in the bedroom.”
Daniel and Alex hurried through the tidying up, neither saying anything that didn’t pertain to what they were doing. When they were done, they both headed to the master bedroom.
Daniel had already placed the dildos into hot soapy water in his bathroom sink. Now he removed and dropped his anal plug into it as well. Alex, making a comical face as she gingerly followed suit, avoided his eye.
“I’ll go see what Liam needs.” Daniel left Alex and went down to Liam’s study. He knocked lightly on the doorframe and waited.
After a moment Liam looked up and smiled. “Come in, Daniel.”
Feeling petulant, Daniel held back. He hadn’t quite forgiven Liam, though intellectually he understood there was nothing to forgive. Liam had exercised his right as Daniel’s Master to discipline him as he saw fit.
Still, it had been one of the most difficult things Daniel had ever endured. The indignity of having his personal slave girl shove a dildo up his ass and then, to pour salt into the wound, to be forced to tongue her ass.
“Come here,” Liam said, getting to his feet. He wanted around the desk and toward the couch, gesturing for Daniel to approach.
As Daniel took a seat beside him, Liam placed his hand on Daniel’s bare thigh and squeezed gently. “You’re having a hard time right now.” It wasn’t a question.
Daniel nodded. He wasn’t going to deny it.
“You didn’t like that punishment. It humiliated you in front of your sub.”
Daniel said nothing.
Liam leaned over and kissed Daniel’s cheek. His tone was gentle. “Listen to me, Daniel. It’s very rare anymore for you to require punishment. It’s not something I do lightly. But I needed to pull you back. To remind you who you belong to, Alex notwithstanding.”
“Yes, Sir,” Dan replied, though he still didn’t understand—not really.
“Yes, we brought Alex into our lives to give you the chance to explore your Dom side. But if that’s going to get in the way of what you and I share, it’s not going to work. Alex belongs to you only insofar as that ownership doesn’t impede on what we share. Do you agree?”
All at once Daniel understood. By giving him the freedom to explore his dominant desires, Liam had given him the chance to grow as a sexual being. Because of Liam’s grace and confidence as Daniel’s Master, he didn’t need to oversee or control every aspect of Alex’s training. He trusted Daniel to do what was right. He trusted Daniel to remember his place—his ultimate place as Liam’s sub. By overstepping, Daniel had jeopardized what was most dear to them both.
“I get it now, Liam,” Daniel said, blinking back sudden tears of remorse. Please forgive me, Sir. It won’t happen again.”
“I already have, sweetheart,” Liam said, his eyes crinkling into a smile. “Now, let me ask you something.”
“Yes, Sir?”
“Who do you belong to?”
Daniel felt himself melting inside. Those five words had a way of sending him directly to a peaceful, deeply calming and sensual place he realized he hadn’t been occupying lately. While it was thrilling to dominate Alex, this was where he belonged.
“You, Sir,” he whispered, slipping from the sofa to kneel at Liam’s feet. “I’m sorry I forgot. I won’t forget again.”
“Thank you, Daniel. Go wait with Alex. Talk to her and let her know we’re okay. Make sure she understands the dynamic between us.” He tapped Daniel’s shoulder and Daniel rose to go.
As he was walking out the door, his step lighter and his heart at ease, Liam said, “Oh and, Daniel?”
He turned backed expectantly. “Yes, Sir?”
“I love you.”
When Daniel entered the bedroom, Alex was lying on one side of the bed looking small and vulnerable. He lay down beside her and stroked her smooth bare thigh. “I know that was hard on you, being forced to participate in my discipline. I needed reminding and Liam did the right thing. You do understand you still belong to me, right?”
Alex nodded. “Yes, Sir.”
Even though Liam had been right to punish him, he couldn’t help but wonder how Alex’s participation in and witnessing of it would affect his relationship with her as her Dom. It was a strange situation to be in.
Alex distracted him from his thoughts. “Daniel, may I speak?”
“What? Yes. Yes, of course.”
In a small voice she asked, “What about me?”
“What?”
He waited. She was clearly agitated. Finally she mumbled, “I don’t know.” She turned her body away from him.
He reached for her, gently pulling her back to face him. “Yes you do. It’s okay to speak freely. What’s going on? What about you?”
She took a deep breath. “It’s just…”
“Go on.” He pulled her to him and she snuggled against his chest and he held her close.
“You and Liam. You’re so in love and…”
All at once he knew. This brash young woman who had come tumbling into their lives, confidently assuring them she wasn’t looking for love but only a true submissive experience had now changed her mind or at least her heart. She was looking for something more.
Was it possible for three people to be in love? Did he have room in his heart for Alex? Did Liam? Once he would have completely dismissed the idea out of hand, but now, holding the sweet feisty girl in his arms, he was no longer so sure. D/s was by its nature a certain kind of love. But was it enough?
He waited for Alex to continue, to force the issue to the forefront, but all she said was, “Nothing. Never mind.”
Chapter 7
Alex sat in the alcove off the living room in her favorite spot for writing, her laptop perched on her bare thighs. It was hard to believe it was already Friday. She hadn’t written much since she’d been back, too busy living out her real-life fantasies to write about them.
She’d had four novels published, each one featuring heroines who more or less fell into a D/s situation and found true love in the process. Her last novel had been pure fantasy, featuring a beautiful but sheltered young princess who was captured during a battle between powerful warlords and forced into sexual servitude that somehow evolved into true love.
The current work in progress was set in the present day. It was about a young woman who tries her hand as the sexual submissive to two men. Alex was having great fun writing it, though in her story the heroine was tall with long, rippling red hair and flashing eyes, and the two heroes were straight, both vying for her love.
Even if she couldn’t script this particular adventure she was living, she had to admit she was having the time of her life. She felt more alive than she’d ever felt. Each moment was erotically charged. She was constantly on fire and they let her come more often than not. Even when they denied her this only served to stoke her masochistic fires.
Mundane chores like polishing the oak stairs and dusting the baseboards had taken on an erotic aspect. Any chore not completed with perfection was met with Daniel’s hard, sexy hand on her ass. She did her best to please him but he always found at least one area for improvement each day. She couldn’t help but notice his erection when he spanked her. He got off as much as she did on the so-called punishments he meted out before Liam came home each day.
Daniel was out at his favorite seafood market picking up fresh lobster for the bisque he planned to make that evening. He’d told her after she finished putting clean sheets on the all the beds, she could have free time.
Too bad he’d put on t
he chastity belt before he left. She’d been teased and sexually tortured unmercifully yesterday and not permitted to come. Daniel no doubt knew the temptation to let her fingers stray would be too much for her. She cupped the leather codpiece that kept her from touching herself.
She found if she pressed her thighs together in a certain way, she could exert enough pressure on her clit to ease some of the ache though not enough to actually climax. She did this now, rocking back and forth, the image of Liam fucking Daniel in her mind’s eye. She loved watching the two hard-bodied beautiful men moving together in that perfect erotic ballet, Liam’s long cock sliding in and out of Daniel’s firm ass.
Because they were longtime lovers, they didn’t use condoms with each other. When she had arrived for the initial week of training, she’d produced a clean bill of sexual health, courtesy of the local clinic. They’d produced their current lab results as well. Yet, for some reason, they still used condoms with her the few times they’d fucked her, even though she’d assured them she was on birth control.
She hated condoms. More than that though, she, right or wrong, saw their use of condoms with her as a way of maintaining a distance they didn’t keep with each other. She knew she should be grateful for what she got, and in fact she was. She was lucky they took her into their bed as often as they did.
A few times after extensive training sessions, they had made love to her. Afterward, however, she was always sent to her room to sleep. Sometimes it took every ounce of control not to beg to be permitted to stay with them all night. She didn’t, though. Not because of pride or obedience but because she wouldn’t be able to bear the feeling of utter rejection when they refused.
Better to focus on the positive. Like the upcoming play party. As the day approached, it had become a major topic of conversation at the dinner table with Daniel and Liam discussing the guest list at length as well as details of the party planning.
They were having it catered and staffed by servers so Daniel wasn’t distracted from his primary task as Liam’s sub. They were going to use a small company they’d used in the past, the owner of which was heavily into the scene and happy to dress his waiters, who were also his personal slaves, in suitable slave gear. Since the fare would be an assortment of appetizers Daniel was less particular than if they’d been catering a sit-down meal.
