“Roan said you were new. What brought you to the dungeon? What are you looking for?”
She laughed softly. “Shouldn’t that be obvious? Sex.”
“You’re a beautiful woman. I hardly think it would be difficult for you to find a man to share your bed. You don’t need this dungeon for that.”
“You’re right. I don’t. I want more.”
Jett loved her honesty. Loosening his grip, he stroked her hair lightly before closing his fingers again tightly. He applied more pressure, enjoying her heated response to the pain.
Carissa moaned quietly, then asked, “Who are you?”
“My name doesn’t matter. You’ll call me Sir.”
She shivered at the title. Jett fought to restrain a grin.
“Answer my question, my love. Why are you here?”
She took her time, choosing her words carefully. Jett had always respected Carissa’s cautious nature, the way she thought before speaking or acting.
“I want to see if…I think I might be…”
She struggled with the word. Jett wasn’t surprised. Carissa was too independent to release her grip on the reins for long.
“Submissive?”
She released a breath. “Yes, but I think it will be hard for me to…I mean…I don’t think I’ll submit easily.”
He chuckled. “I like a challenge.”
Carissa stiffened at the sound of his laughter. “Do I know you?”
He’d nearly revealed himself. Until he convinced her he was the right man to indulge her fantasy, he couldn’t let her know it was him. Carissa would never risk their friendship on what she would think was just sex. He deepened his voice once more. “No.”
She didn’t seem convinced, but mercifully she let it slide. “I can’t let a man drag me around on a leash.”
Jett grimaced. The asshole had scared her, given her a bad impression of what it meant to submit. “I don’t drag women around.”
“He was cruel to her.”
Jett wanted to go find Gregory and beat the shit out of the man. “The only pain I give would bring you pleasure.”
“Even if I did something wrong? I’ve never done this before. I don’t know how—”
“I would like to teach you. How long are you staying at Eden?”
“A week.”
“Give me the week. Promise to be my submissive and I’ll show you exactly how incredible it can be to put yourself in the hands of a man whose only goal is to give you as many orgasms as you can stand.”
She laughed. “Orgasms sound nice.”
Carissa wasn’t shy about asking for what she wanted. It was a refreshing change, given his last few girlfriends, who preferred to play games and make him guess what they wanted.
“Should we start your lessons?”
“Now?”
Carissa’s courage was faltering in the face of making her fantasy a reality.
Jett lifted the hand wrapped around her waist to her breast. Cupping it, he pressed firmly, applying pressure until he heard her gasp.
“Now.”
