False Pretenses [Rod and Cane Society 2]
Page 17
"I would have torn apart any guy who touched you,” he bit out, eyes blazing. His vehemence thrilled Emma down to her toes. Dan captured a nipple into his mouth and sucked. When it stiffened to his satisfaction, he attended to its twin. The peaks of both breasts were engorged and achy by the time he released her. Leaning on one elbow, he studied her face. The tip of his erection pearled with his desire.
"I opposed the paddling, not because I didn't think you deserved one—because frankly, I think you did—but it shouldn't have been conducted in view of the board. At home, I would not have been as hard on you."
A nervous excitement curled in the pit of her stomach. She swallowed. “You're saying you would have spanked me anyway?"
"I've only practiced spanking for erotic pleasure. But after what happened, I see its disciplinary merits.” He paused, his gaze intense. “Especially after we get married."
Emma widened her eyes. Her heart thumped so hard, it threatened to burst out of her chest.
"Will you marry me, Emma? I want to hold you for the rest of my life, protect you, love you forever."
"I love you too. Yes!” Emma flung her arms around his neck, hardly able to believe how her future had turned around in a few short hours. She vowed to spend the rest of her life making this man happy.
Dan sealed the deal with a possessive kiss, the hardness of his erection pressing against her abdomen, but when she attempted to stroke him, he grasped her shoulders and pushed her away.
Emma frowned.
Dan raised his hands, palms open. “Before you commit, I need to know if you can accept a domestic discipline marriage, with all it means.” His gaze caught and held hers.
Emma wet her lips. Melania had shared with her how the domestic discipline arrangement worked in her marriage. “So, you're saying you'd be the head of our household, would set expectations, and make the final decisions?"
"I'd never make an important decision without consulting you. We'll talk things over, but in the end, if we can't agree, I'll settle it. And yes, I'll set some boundaries, rules, if you will."
"Like what?"
"That will be decided later, as situations arise, but it could be things like calling if you're going to be late or keeping the door closed so Jinx doesn't get out."
"And if I break your rules, you'll spank me?"
"I'll consider all factors and decide on a case-by-case basis. But yes,” he said, nodding. “I will spank you if I think you'll benefit from it."
Emma of old would have been shocked and would have refused to consider it. The new Emma smiled as contentment curled in her tummy. She knew where she stood. She knew where she fit. They loved each other, tomorrow and forever.
There would be erotic spankings, but there would also be disciplinary ones. At his discretion, she would feel his hand on her ass when it would benefit her. She had a hunch she wouldn't always agree with his discipline and could foresee being on the receiving end of spankings she didn't want, but she would trust him because he had her best interests in mind. Why shouldn't he rule their home—he already commanded her heart.
The future had never looked brighter. “I wouldn't have it any other way."
