“Don’t tempt me, MySecretMaster. You’re not the only person who offered to enlighten me.” She snuggled against him and tried to hide her smile of contentment.
“I’ll tempt you all I want, Isabel, because you’re mine. To enlighten and so much more.”
“Spoken like a true Dom,” she teased, running one finger down the middle of his chest. He grabbed her wrist before she reached his navel and brought her fingers to his lips for a quick kiss.
“No, spoken like a man who knows what he wants. And I do want you. All of you. The kinky side that only we need to see, as well as the beautiful woman who’s out there for the rest of the world. Whether you want to be tied to my bed or sitting across from me at the bar, screaming for the wrong sports team.”
She sighed heavily, wanting to believe it could work.
“It sounds too perfect and you know what that means.”
“Don’t jinx this before it’s started, Isabel.” He leaned back, demanding she look into his eyes. “I don’t do normal subterfuge well, so everyone is bound to know we’ve been together. What they won’t know is how well your nipples respond to being whipped or how I nearly shoot my load when you look up at me with those sexy green eyes and do the slow blink. Those can be secrets we don’t divulge.”
“And when we’re across the bar from each other and I want you to take me into the back room and spank me, what then?”
“Simple. Do what worked this time.”
The coolness of the sheet touched her back and Isabel smiled as he cradled her face in his hands. His eyes sparkled and she knew she was going to like whatever it was he was about to say.
“And what worked this time?” she asked.
“Bring those sweet lips close and whisper those four special words.”
Isabel’s mind raced, trying to figure out where he was headed, but everything was either too short or too long.
Tie me up.
Spank my ass.
Chain me to the bed.
“Okay. I give up,” she finally said.
“Nice try, but not the four I was thinking of,” he said, placing a kiss on the tip of her nose.
“Just tell me,” she demanded, ignoring the way he arched his brow at her tone.
“Want to go private?”
She looked at him for a few heartbeats and raised her lips to his.
“Yes I do, Chris. Those are the four words you’ll always get in return.”
“That’s perfect, Isabel. Because those are the only four I’ll ever need.”
About the Author
M.A. Ellis is a firm believer that everyone should pursue their dreams…no matter how long it takes to achieve them. She wrote her first short story, What I Want To Be When I Grow Up, many decades ago. It was read by a total of seven people. (For those who are interested, the answer to that intriguing statement was a toss-up between a veterinarian and a nun.)
Thanks to the encouragement of a creative writing guru at Northern Kentucky University, M.A. stepped out of her neat little writing boundaries and tried her hand at erotic poetry, which ultimately led her to where she is today—devising tales of hot encounters and steamy romances that always have happy endings. It’s a vocation she truly loves, equally as rewarding as furry, four-legged creatures and a heck of a lot more entertaining than Friday nights at the nunnery.
Originally from the land of pierogies and black & gold sports memorabilia, M.A. now resides in southwest Florida, where she’s never at a loss for inspiration. The sunsets are always amazing, the fishing is stellar and weekly beach volleyball can definitely be considered a “research” mission.
When not writing or reading, M.A. concentrates on honing her master baking skills, focusing on the realms of cheesecake and chocolate, which happen to be her favorite alliterations in all the world.
M.A. welcomes comments from readers. You can find her website and email address on her author bio page at www.ellorascave.com.
