wrinkly.
She set the dishes beside the sink. His arms went around on either side of her, a
glass in each hand. That wonderful feeling of warmth and protection stole over her
again. He lifted her hair to place a kiss at the nape of her neck and she rolled her eyes as
her knees went weak again. Damn, but what he could do to her with such simple little
touches!
She turned around, her arms going up around his neck. As she did, she noticed the
time on the wall clock and her brow furrowed. How on earth did it get to be seven
o clock already?
Time flies when you re having fun?
Time doesn t exist when you re having fun s more like it. Smiling seductively and
pressing her naked body against the wonderful expanse of his chest, she made a
suggestion. You have a dishwasher, I see. We could just put these in there and find
something else to do with our time.
He laughed and kissed her soundly. Her lips parted as his lips bruised hers, she
welcomed the dance of tongues as her stomach fluttered all over again. Hadn t they just
had an entire afternoon of sex? How on earth could she be so brazen as to want more?
I think I awakened a sleeping tiger, he said when the kiss ended.
Lauren nodded. I think you did too.
Then perhaps we should just let the dishes sit right where they are.
With a flourish, he picked her up and slung her over his shoulder as if she were a
sack of potatoes. She squealed, more in surprise than protest. How could she protest
anything he did to her after proving himself so many times already?
He didn t take her upstairs, however. John stopped in the entranceway and set her
down, feet first on the tiled floor. He made sure she stood steady before he stepped
back. Are you ready to take this to the next level?
Lauren studied him, trying to read his suddenly serious gaze. He d asked a
question but she sensed a challenge underneath. What the heck, everything had gone so
far beyond anything she d ever dreamed of. She shrugged. Sure. Why not?
John took another step back and gestured to the stairs. Up you go. He waited
until she got to the bottom of the stairs before adding, On your knees.

Really?
He only waited. With a small shake of her head, she knelt on the first step and
started up. By the time she reached the fifth step, she apparently had decided to enjoy
herself and she shook her ass invitingly, turning each step gained into a sensuous,
inviting dance.
John hid his grin. Yeah, Lauren not only took what he dished out, she turned it
around and gave it back to him tenfold. He d listened to Phillip and Will talk about
their wives that way, but until now, he hadn t really understood what they meant when
they said Sarah and Jill really kept the playing field level.
She d nearly reached the top and John took the stairs slowly behind her, enjoying
the sway of her ass. Her body bore little trace of the marks he d put on her before. That
was good. Coloring that heart-shaped ass could easily become a habit.
Into the bedroom, he instructed when she paused in the small hallway. Three
doors opened off this tiny area, one to the bathroom, one to another bedroom he used as
a study and of course, the one to his bedroom. She flung an amused look over her
shoulder and turned to the left, heading straight for the foot of the bed. She paused
there and John realized she awaited his orders.
He came around in front of her, holding out a hand to help her up. Come here, he
told her and she took his hand and, in one fluid movement, stood and slid into his
arms. She felt so comfortable to hold. He savored the moment, pulling her in so her
head rested against his chest, his arms encircling her, loving the fact that she stood here,
still naked, still willing, still his.
I know we have a lot of details to work out, he said quietly, his gaze looking into
the future. If you re willing, though& His voice trailed off. How did he ask the
woman he was falling in love with if she wanted to be his slave? And was that really
what he wanted?
She stirred and he released his hold enough for her to look up at him. Trust shone
in her eyes. I d like that. To work out the details, I mean. She snuggled back into
place. I m in no hurry to make any decisions and am perfectly willing to see where this
goes.
