“We will, but not tonight. We have an entire trip together to talk, to share everything. Tonight, I simply want to make love to my wife.” David picked her up in his arms, cradling her against him as he kissed the top of her head.
Her tears continued to fall softly as he laid her gingerly down on the bed. In the single slice of moonlight streaming in past the partially open blinds, she thought he had to be the most incredible man she’d ever laid eyes on.
David palmed both sides of the sheets and leaned down over her. “Do you know how much I love you?”
“I do. And I didn’t mean to doubt you.”
“Shh…” Pressing a single finger over her lips, he lowered his head and nuzzled into her neck, licking the base of her ear. “Never forget you belong to me. You are mine, forever – body and soul.”
The whisper was husky, and when his hot breath skated across her skin, she shivered. Her husband could turn her on like no other man. Arching her back, she slid her hand down the length of his chest to the tuft of hair near his bellybutton. Her fingers tingled as she stroked him. “Body and soul.”
David bit down on her neck, taking the tender flesh into his mouth, a deep growl pushing past his lips.
Every part of her tingled and she kept her eyes closed as she brushed the tips of her fingers down, exploring the heat of his body. God, she loved the touch of him. Shannon parted her lips as he licked under her chin while one of his hands grazed over her breast. Instantly, her nipple hardened.
David licked around her mouth before darting his tongue just inside. His tongue shifted across hers as he breathed into her mouth.
She could swear the scent of cinnamon was infused with a sultry tang that was all male. When she arched her back further, to kiss him, he pulled back and pinched her nipple.
“You need to be a good girl.”
Biting her lip, she opened her eyes and spread her legs open, longing to beg him to fuck her. She could easily tell by the look in his eyes he was going to be in charge. And my, oh my, she loved this side of him. “Yes, sir.”
“You’re a tease.”
“And you love me.”
David kissed her lips once then pinched her nipple again, twisting the bud between his fingers. “Beautiful.” Licking between her breasts, he slid his fingers down to her stomach, rubbing the tips back and forth. “Gorgeous.”
With every lick, every fervent kiss, she became wetter, her pussy clenching. The second David swirled the tip of his finger around her clit, she almost came. “Ooh!” She clawed the sheets to keep from reaching out to him. Panting, she sucked in her breath as he repeated the move. He was going to make her climax almost instantly.
He continued touching her, tasting almost every inch of her skin, teasing her relentlessly with his fingers.
A strangled moan eased from her lips. Shannon reached down to caress his face and was grunting when he gathered her legs into his arms, pushing them back and burying his face in her pussy. “Oh… oh oh…” She slapped her hand over her mouth to keep from screaming as he licked her wildly.
Using a combination of his fingers and tongue, David thrust into her cunt as he held her tightly. Dragging the tip of his tongue up from the base of her pussy to her clit, he plunged in two additional fingers, flexing them open.
“God… oh oh…” Unable to control her reactions, she reached out, intertwining her fingers in his hair. Absolute bliss washed over her until Shannon opened her mouth and only a strangled hiss could be heard. Stars floated in front of her eyes, and for a few seconds, she couldn’t feel her legs. As he encircled her asshole with his fingers, she managed to stare down at him. The look on his face, the way his eyes were locked onto hers, was absolutely savage.
He used a combination of his fingers driving into her asshole and her pussy as he bit down on her swollen clit.
The incredible orchestration was too much for her to take. An orgasm rushed up from her toes directly into her quivering cunt. A tingling sensation shot down her spine and she clawed his arm as the climax came in a wild wave. “Ahh!”
David dug his nails into her legs as he held her, lapping her juice, his fingers pumping vigorously.
There was something so carnal about the sound of his moans, his feral noises. Her body was all the way off the bed and as soon as she fell back into the soft confines of the comforter, another wave swept through her. This time, she screamed out.
A few seconds later, he rose onto the bed, fell back and pulled her on top, impaling her with one long thrust. “Yes!” He held her still as he wiggled under her. “So wet. So hot.”
Dangling her head over his, she blinked several times as beads of perspiration trickled down from her face to his cheek. She watched as, in slow motion, the beads rolled down to his neck and smiled. Every part of her body was shaking, her legs almost cramping as her pussy clamped around his thick cock.
Giving her a heated look, he lifted her until just the tip of his dick was inside before pumping her up and down three times then stopping. “You hungry for more?”
She wanted to scream out more. Instead, she leaned over and captured his mouth, pressing her tongue past his pursed lips. Squeezing her cunt muscles around his thick cock, she heard his moan and savored the sound. While she certainly wasn’t in control, there was nothing more special than feeling his hardness throbbing deep inside.
Wrapping his hand around her hair, he tugged her head back, breaking the kiss. “Naughty woman. At this rate, you’re going to need another spanking.”
“I’ll risk it.”
Grinning, David shook his head and began pumping her up and down on his shaft. “Ride me. Hard.”
Shannon did as she was told, using her strong thigh muscles to lift far enough above his groin only the tip of his cock remained inside. The suckling noise her pussy was making was a very intense aphrodisiac. She dragged strands of her hair over his chest as she rode him up and down, the angle perfect for driving in deeply. “David.”
“Beauty,” he countered.
Swallowing hard, she could tell he was close to coming. He kept his hand on her hips, helping her rock as their moves became practiced, perfect. She continued rocking him, her actions just savage enough the metal frame began to hit the wall. The thudding matched the beats of her heart, and for the first time in so very long, she felt as if they were one. “Are you…”
David cocked his head as he cupped her breast, kneading her tender flesh. “Am I what?”
“I…” She bit her lip and watched a bead of saliva trickle down to his mouth.
“And me,” he whispered hoarsely.
“Are you going to allow me to come?” She was certain by the look in his eyes he wasn’t, preferring to keep her hot and hungry. Several seconds passed as she did everything she could to hold her orgasm at bay, including clenching around his cock. Another groan escaped his lips.
As if in answer, he rolled her over, lifting his groin as he grabbed her legs and pushed them back. Thrusting the entire length of his cock inside, he crushed her mouth with his, then began to drive into her.
Within seconds, she couldn’t hold back her climax any longer. As the rush of emotions filled her soul, she came in a heated wave, dazzling sensations roaring through her. She screamed into the kiss as she clawed his back and knew he was exploding inside of her. Hot and wet was all she could sense – along with the most intense love she’d ever experienced in her life.
When he finally broke the kiss, minutes later, and looked into her eyes, he blinked several times.
And she couldn’t help but wonder why his eyes were so full of anger.
The location of The Endless Journey was not at all what David had anticipated – not in the least. He’d seen the glossy brochures, but then again, he’d seen a lot of them lately. The island was tropical, posh and extremely secluded.
“Wow,” Shannon breathed as she moved forward in her seat.
The make-shift limousine reminded him of days gone by, but the ride from the airport
had been nothing more than accommodating, including drinks in the airport as well as a bottle of champagne in the vintage 1980’s Cadillac. “That is one word.”
“Don’t be negative.”
“I’m not being negative.”
“You always are with places you don’t know,” Shannon shot back and darted a look.
The plane had manifested some turbulence from one wicked storm, which had pushed Shannon into an edgy mood. Remember what she needs. Remember what you both need. David grabbed the bottle of champagne and carefully refilled both glasses before nuzzling next to her. He thought about the nightmare she’d had in the wee hours of the morning, her cries of raw anguish. There wasn’t any doubt he was partially to blame. “Remember something. Wherever you and I are together is special. I don’t care where.”
“Yeah, but this place is meant to… to…” Shannon cringed and eased the glass to her lips.
He could see her hand was trembling. For a full minute, he studied her face. My God, the woman was full of trepidation. Then again, so was he. Even after the night of lovemaking, she was tense, unsure. Wrapping his arm around her tense shoulders, he pointed out the window, the glass firmly planted in his hand. “Take a look at the sky. Tell me what you see.”
Shannon sighed. “A moment of peace.”
The words he didn’t expect. “Then we’ll share that peace.”
A slight shake of her head and she gave him a subtle smile. “I hope so.”
David shifted in his seat until he was able to see her lovely face as he lifted his glass. “You and I have to make a single promise to each other.”
“Just one?”
“For this place, this time. You and I both know I can’t promise the world.” The words said in jest, he was grateful she didn’t flinch.
Shannon chuckled and held up her glass. “Fair enough. Open. Honest. Giving. Truthful. Loving.”
“I said one, not five.”
Ribbing him, she shook her head. “Men.”
“Women.”
“Bite me.” Her hand flew to the rather blue bite he’d given her the night before.
“Spanking.” The bantering broke the ice. When she giggled and licked the rim of her glass, he felt relieved. Even in her eyes, she seemed more relaxed, as if she could allow him in. Or vice versa. Now, if only he could let go.
She nuzzled into his neck and kissed a swatch under his chin. “Yes, sir.” In a moment of excitement, she edged closer to the window. “Would you look at that beach!”
David had to admit, the rolling waves, the perfect near sunset, and the pearlescent beach was straight out of some perfect calendar. “Gorgeous, just like my wife.”
“Flattery buddy.”
“I brought the hairbrush, my favorite belt and the paddle you love so dearly,” he teased.
Shannon wiggled in her seat. “Fine.”
“Obey.” When she huffed, he rubbed her back. “We’re going to have an amazing time.”
“I think so. I hope so… I… I… yes.”
“You sound unsure,” he whispered in her ear.
“Not unsure.”
“Very unsure.”
She shot him another look. “Okay, just worried that…”
“Truthful and honest. Deal?” He held up the glass again, this time eying the bank of what could only be called pagodas that were close to Heaven. The outbuildings were just about five hundred yards apart, all right on the water and he had no doubt, amazing inside.
“Uh-huh. Is this where we’re going to stay?” Shannon edged all the way to the window, palming the glass.
“I think so.”
“Holy…”
“Shit. You bet,” David laughed. As the driver pulled up, he took a gulp of his champagne.
Shannon turned her head slowly to look at him, her eyes remaining unblinking. “In case I didn’t tell you, thank you for last night.”
“Thank you?” For sex? For passion? For her spanking? David waited.
“For trusting me.”
The odd aspect was, he did. He just didn’t trust himself. “Drink up. I think we have about an hour before our first session.” The itinerary seemed very rigid. But maybe that’s what they both needed – discipline with their anger and emotions. He could see how much she was shivering. “It’s going to be okay. This is just a place, one that is gorgeous, I might add.”
“I know.”
David wanted to comfort her as well as his own nerves, to find the right words for both of them. This was tough, but he was so ready to believe. As the driver stopped the engine and climbed out of the car, he said a silent prayer. Maybe he was a bit in need of spiritual healing after all. He wrapped her hand around his, pulling her out of the car and as they stood gazing at what had to be the most incredible ocean view, his thoughts wandered. After a full minute, he walked them inside the hotel, trailing behind at least a half-dozen couples. Only a half-dozen? Interesting.
“Even the lobby is spectacular,” Shannon said as she gripped David’s arm.
“Almost too much so.”
“Remember what you said.”
For some reason, he knew the man in charge of the seminar instantly. His gut told him this was the renowned Stephen Robbins.
“Welcome to The Endless Journey. I hope you’ll find your accommodations to your liking. I’m Stephen Robbins, your host for the event. What I truly believe you’re going to find during your stay is some peace, a moment allowing you to find your inner self as you explore the incredible journey into domestic discipline. Whether you’re just beginning or have been enveloped for years, I think you’re going to release what many of us call demons, those lurking with dark secrets and sometimes very intimate desires.”
“I think he’s trying to sell us Amway or maybe a continent,” David whispered.
Shannon jabbed his stomach. “Hush. I think he’s enchanting.”
At least two other couples gave him an evil eye, and he couldn’t help but smirk at them. He wanted to believe in the very concept that a seminar would make everything better, but, how could he?
Stephen seemed to notice his comments and glared at David with disdain. As he was handed a glass of champagne, lifting the crystal into the air, he kept his eyes locked onto David. He motioned for the group of waiters who surrounded the men and women with glistening trays full of tall glasses. “What you need to be able to do is let go, believe in more than just your concept of a relationship. As you all should know by now, domestic discipline is a very special aspect of a relationship that few couples can understand, and many refuse to embrace. If you’re a naysayer, I’m going to challenge you. Lift your glass and celebrate with me the beginning of another phase of your intense journey, one I assure you will bring you and your partner new heights of pleasure.”
“Here. Here.”
“I can’t wait.”
Hearing the scattering of so many people already immersed in the Kool-Aid the man was doling out actually sickened David. But as he looked into Shannon’s eyes, the hope that remained in them, he sighed and accepted the fact the instructor was already gunning for him. Prove him wrong. Prove him… Oh shit, he was already doing a mantra. He raised his glass anyway.
Shannon wrapped her arm around his waist and leaned her head against his arm. “I hope. I so hope.”
“To that end, folks, I want you to all get checked in and comfortable in your rooms. I think you’re going to love the ocean views. You have free rein of everything from scuba diving and snorkeling to jet skis, so please enjoy. There are a few mandated classes and others I do hope you’ll enjoy partaking in, especially some of the group sessions. You all need to know you’re not alone.” Stephen stopped talking and looked around the room, his eyes settling on Shannon. “Tonight, we have a group session, the beginning to this amazing time we’re going to share together. What I want you both to do before you attend the event is write a single word, the act done in complete private, that is the most fearful about the lifestyle. There are no rights or wro
ngs. We’ll explore the concepts of your fear together. That’s where we need to begin. And remember, this is going to be fun. Then I hope you’ll all join us for a fabulous dinner. We’ve created something special beachside for you.” Stephen pumped his fist into the air.
Immediately, the crowd responded to his powerful voice, the gleam in his eye. The amount of clapping was almost too much for David. He generally hated anything quite this pompous. Do this for Shannon. Do this for your wife, who needs to help ease the… He couldn’t even finish the thought. He moved away from her until he was able to see her face. The sun was just beginning to set into the warm water, and he couldn’t help but think she was the most beautiful woman he’d ever seen. “I love you.” He wasn’t certain she could hear the words over the cheering, but when she tipped her head, he knew.
Shannon merely cupped his face.
The sign of affection gave him shivers.
“Are you sure I look okay?” Shannon fidgeted in the mirror. The simple cotton dress seemed a bit too… Shit, what was the word? Oh yeah, boring. Tonight, she didn’t want to draw attention. She wasn’t into group bullshit and the thought of telling their secrets and woes right off the bat did nothing but turn her stomach.
“You look gorgeous.”
“And you have no conviction in your voice.” She eyed David, who stood at the patio door with a drink in his hand, glaring out at the rolling waves.
“I have conviction for you, honey,” David said.
Again, no conviction. “But not being here. Why are we, if you’re going to push aside everything from the get-go?” She grabbed a tube of lipstick, jerking off the top. She’d seen a change in him the minute Stephen started talking. Still, now wasn’t the time to rile him. A spanking she didn’t need right now. Shannon almost giggled. Maybe she did.
“We’re here because going through the journey and finding out why taking the final step is so tough for us is happening.”
“Good answer.”
“Smart remark.”
Her left leg began to quiver, but the reaction was more from his carnal look than the words spouted. They’d almost considered the mile-high club during the flight. “You’re right, sir.”
