Reborn as Bree [The ShadowDance Club 5] (Siren Publishing Ménage Amour)

by Avery Gale

  She watched for a few more minutes, taking time to really consider what she was feeling and then without taking her eyes off the scene, she answered. “I’m not sure I’d like being tickled with a feather, I’m so terribly ticklish and it doesn’t really turn me on, if you know what I mean. But I can see how intense it would be to have your Dom totally focused on igniting pleasure all over your body while you were unable to move. And I really do believe Master Jamie could talk me right over the edge of orgasm because he has a hypnotic voice. He uses it to paint a picture in my mind and that is very powerful.”

  When she finally looked up at him, she saw him smiling at her. “Your observations and honesty please me very much, love.” She suddenly noticed that he was rubbing small circles lightly over the small of her back and it was like sinking into a tub of warm pleasure. “But just so you know, you are probably wrong about the tickling, because she is feeling many different sensations, but I’d be willing to bet she wouldn’t describe any of them as tickling.” Laughing quietly, he reached up and used the lightest of touches to brush her hair over her shoulder and she felt the shudder start at her core and work its way to the surface. “Now, love, would you describe that as tickling or something entirely different?”

  She gasped and was surprised at how airy her voice sounded when she was finally able to squeak out, “Oh my. I understand…Sir. That is really amazing.” As he moved her toward the next scene her knees felt weak and she was grateful when they found a seat on one of the front sofas facing the scene.

  Chapter 36

  Ethan had been thrilled with Bree’s openness about her response to the first scene and judging by Creed’s quick hand signals, her body had responded exactly as they had hoped it would. As he seated her on his lap, he pulled her back against his chest so that she would be completely open to his touch, but he would also be able to closely monitor her responses. This was the first scene where she could easily misinterpret what was happening unless she was watching closely. Just as he had pulled her against him, he felt her whole body tense. He squeezed her tight and said, “Tell me what you see…look closely, love.”

  It was several seconds before she answered and Ethan was actually starting to worry until he’d seen Creed’s quick signal that they were still good to go. “I see a large square frame that looks like it could turn like a lazy Susan or pivot from the center to lie flat like a table. The woman is tethered to the inside of the frame at her ankles and wrists so she is completely open to her two masters. She has nipple clamps on and her nipples are so dark and peaked I know she must be able to feel each beat of her heart.”

  “First of all, I want you to notice that you haven’t mentioned the fact that both of the subs have been completely naked and that pleases me because it shows an open-mindedness that is rare for anyone’s first visit to a BDSM club. Also, did you notice the lining inside the cuffs? The lining is very soft and watch as the Doms check the fit frequently to make sure her circulation isn’t cut off and that her fingers are still pink and warm. If her fingers start tingling, she’ll use her safe word or ‘yellow’ to let them know there’s a problem. I want to remind you that the most severe punishment any sub at The ShadowDance Club ever receives is for his or her failure to look out for their personal safety—in or out of a scene. Failing to use your safe word is an offense that is always dealt with publically and harshly—remember that, love.”

  When she nodded her understanding and murmured, “Yes, Sir” he continued his narration of the scene.

  “The Doms you see here are doing a demonstration. They are extremely skilled with the instruments they are using and I’m happy they agreed to do this scene.” He chuckled and said, “There was a mad scramble of volunteers among the uncollared subs to do this scene. These Doms don’t do this often, thus the rapidly growing crowd around us.” He bit down lightly on her earlobe and then sucked it into his mouth, soothing the sting, before saying, “They agreed to do this for you, love. So show them how much you appreciate their efforts by sitting as you are required to at dinner and give them your complete attention.”

  When Bree had spread her legs wide apart he gently tugged her dress up so that her bare pussy was open to his touch and clearly visible to anyone who wanted to look. Her exposure hadn’t escaped the attention of either of the Doms performing on the small stage. They both nodded their approval to Ethan and saw her face flush.

  “Flogging sensitizes the skin by bringing the blood to the surface. It can be used as a prelude or warm-up to something more intense or it can be the end in itself. A Dom skilled with a flogger can bring a sub to a screaming orgasm very quickly.” She’d listened to Ethan’s explanation and was grateful that he just let her watch. She noticed that the sub seemed to be kind of disconnected and Ethan had picked up her concern and explained. “Notice how she seems to be floating in her mind? She is entering sub-space, that wonderful endorphin-fueled happy place that is the goal of every scene.” It was just a few minutes until the sub was screaming as she came in huge shuddering waves of obvious pleasure. When she had sagged with exhaustion, Bree was pleased to see both Doms working quickly to release the restraints and the tall blond Dom moved to sit in a plush chair at the back of the scene area. Bree watched him intently, even as she noticed the people around them filtering away.

  When she refocused her attention, she noticed that Ethan had moved her legs back together and lowered her dress. The Native American Dom had knelt in front of her and was looking at her with a soft smile playing over his face. “Hello, Bree. Welcome to ShadowDance, my name is Cash Red Cloud or Master Cash while we are here. I’ve heard a lot about you from your Masters and I’m very pleased to meet you.”

  Bree noticed what seemed to be a silent exchange between the two men before he continued speaking to her. “I wanted to tell you that I was there. The day you were rescued, I was there and I can’t begin to tell you how much of an inspiration you are to those of us who saw how you had been treated.” She hadn’t even realized she was crying until he reached up and wiped away her tears. “Please don’t cry, yazhi. I just wanted you to know that you never need fear the men who gave you these small badges of courage.” As he spoke the words he drew his fingers along one of the faint scars on her shoulder. “I promise you, none of them will ever hurt another woman.”

  Before she even realized what she was doing, she leaned forward and kissed him softly on the cheek and whispered, “Thank you…for coming to my rescue and for taking their asses out.”

  Chapter 37

  Ethan had been completely stunned by her words and the look on Cash’s face had been priceless. Cash Red Cloud was and always had been a true warrior in every sense of the word. His “run to the roar” approach to life had been the envy of every new recruit that had joined the teams. Watching as the man kneeling in front of Bree leaned his head back and howled in laughter had been wonderful. Before Cash and Drake had returned to ShadowDance, Alex and Zach had told the team that the team’s most recent mission in South America had been successful, but extremely difficult. They hadn’t been able to save a child who had stumbled into the crossfire and both men had been shaken by the loss. As a result, they would both be getting some serious downtime in an effort to get them back on an even keel.

  When Bree turned and touched his cheek, Ethan returned his focus to her. “Master Ethan, I’m sorry for speaking to Master Cash without permission. I was so touched by what he’d said that I forgot I was supposed to ask.”

  Ethan was so surprised by her words he actually stuttered his response. “Oh—B–Bree, your response was completely natural and came directly from your heart. We won’t ever punish you for expressing kindness or heartfelt gratitude.” He stroked her hair and then hugged her close.

  “Can I ask Master Cash a question please?” Her words were spoken softly and with such sincerity there was no way he could deny her request.

  “Of course. And thank you for remembering to ask, love. You please me very much.”


  Ethan watched as she turned to Cash and smiled before saying, “Master Cash, what does yazhi mean?”

  Ethan watched as Cash smiled and raised his finger to lightly touch the very tip of Bree’s nose in a clearly affectionate gesture. “Yazhi was what my grandmother always called my younger sister, it is Navajo for ‘little one.’ You are beautiful and your Masters are very lucky men indeed. I hope that someday the Universe sends me a woman as brave as you are.” And then he smiled and winked before adding, “And beautiful would be a nice bonus as well.”

  Ethan set Bree on her feet and stood to shake hands with Cash before the man moved back to help clean the scene area and pack up his duffel. Ethan turned back to Bree just as Creed joined them. Together they led Bree to one of the small private rooms and he was pleased to see Jamie had taken time to light the candles and turn down the bed. But before they made love to her, they had to make sure she understood the commitment they were asking for.

  He smiled when she turned in a circle, taking in the luxurious room. The Club offered a variety of “themed rooms” for private play and this was the favorite of couples seeking a romantic setting for play, collaring ceremonies, or other special occasions. “It’s beautiful. And the candlelight is spectacular. Thank you for making this night so special. I learned a lot about myself and that many of my fears weren’t based on fact.”

  Ethan stood back and watched as Jamie pulled Bree into his embrace and held her for long minutes, whispering against her ear, telling her how pleased they were with her. He told her how wonderfully she had responded to everything they had shown her. He reminded her that there certainly were more extreme methods of play, but neither of them had ever been into anything more extreme than what she had already seen or heard about from the other women. Jamie also told her how grateful he was for the kindness she’d shown Cash. “Your kind spirit set a dear friend of ours back on a track that will help heal him, chère. Every member of our team will be indebted to you for that. You will never know what your actions and words meant to him. I haven’t heard him laugh like that in a long time, and it was awfully nice to see the old Cash again, even if it was just a first glimpse.”

  When Jamie stepped back, Ethan moved to his side and they both stood facing Bree. Ethan watched as her eyes flashed with apprehensions for just a second before she saw their smiles. “Bree, you are everything Jamie and I have ever dreamed of finding in a woman. I know you are the one my sweet grand-mère has been assuring me was coming my way for a long time. She promised my soul would recognize the woman immediately and she was right.”

  Jamie took her left hand in his as Ethan opened the small velvet box that he had carried in his pocket all evening. He took the ring from its nesting place and held it at the end of her ring finger. “Bree, please do us the great honor of becoming our wife. We promise that there will never be a day that you don’t know how much we love and cherish you. We will support you in any way we can, personally, professionally, spiritually, and financially. You will never want for anything we can provide for you.”

  Jamie slid the ring halfway onto her tiny finger and looked into the misty grey depths of her eyes. “I fell in love with you the first time I looked into your eyes. There won’t ever be a moment I won’t be thanking God for bringing you back into my life. Will you marry us?”

  Bree looked at both of them and Jamie saw her acceptance before she even spoke. “I love you both so much. There were so many times before I was kidnapped and while I was chained to that filthy floor before you rescued me that I prayed for a chance to love and be loved. And then every night after you carried me out of hell, I dreamt of you. When my request to contact you was denied I felt like I’d lost you forever. I can scarcely believe I’ve been given this second chance and I want very much to be your wife.”

  Jamie slid the ring all the way down her finger and said, “The details are the easy part and I assure you, your new friends are going to be very happy to help plan the wedding of your dreams. But first, we have a surprise for you. We’ll be leaving first thing tomorrow to travel to Houston so you can meet Ethan’s family and then we’ll visit mine.” Leaning down to kiss the ring that now adorned her slender finger he said, “You’ll get to float down that bayou in the pirogue, chère. I want you to understand the simple joys of life and the peace that you will always be able to find in our loving care. We want to spend the rest of our lives showing you all the reasons you made the right decision when you agreed to marry us. But first—Master Ethan, what do you think? I think our sweet sub has been an exceptionally good girl this evening and I do believe she has earned a reward.”

  Ethan had been grateful that Jamie had taken the lead because it had given him a chance to get a handle on the emotion that had almost swamped him when Bree had agreed to marry them. And seeing their ring on her finger was the most satisfying thing he’d ever seen. “I agree, but right now, I think I’d really like to get a look at the beautiful body she has just entrusted to our loving care.” He glanced over at Jamie and knew he was on board by his sly smile. Looking back at Bree, he said, “Strip.”

  ABOUT THE AUTHOR

  For years, I was accused of living in my own little “Fantasy Land” so I decided to put it to use and started writing. I enjoy creating characters who are loveable but never perfect, who live in and visit places I’d love to go, and who overcome obstacles to find the sexy happily ever after I believe we all deserve. I fall in love with the characters I create and enjoy making them each wacky and wonderful in their own way.

  The only consistent trait in my heroines is their inability to cook and that is the only trait they each have “inherited” from me. When I’m not working at my very ordinary job, I am either writing or reading. And even though my family professes to support my writing efforts, but I’m fairly certain they are merely glad to see I’ve finally found an outlet for what they have always considered my over-the-top imagination.
