her warm body. His wolf wanted her on all fours, wanted to pound into her over and over. Both would play rough, both would be too much for such a delicate woman.
“Go to your room,” he gritted out, desperate to get more distance between them. If he could calm down, if he could stop thinking with his cock….
She didn’t move. “Please. Let me help you if I can. I know there’s something wrong with you.”
His shoulders tightened. His cock hardened even more. Her gentle concern was unmanning him. No one had worried about him in years. Not after his mate had died all those years ago and he’d abandoned his pack. No one had searched for him, tried to bring him back. Did he blame them? No. Did he want to go back and fight the new alpha to take back his role as leader? No. But he was tired of being alone, of sleeping alone. Sarah had been a stupid mistake, made because he’d let his sexual needs had gotten the better of him. He couldn’t do that again. Wouldn’t.
“I’m fine. I don’t pay you to worry about me.” He bit the words out and hated the way they sounded even to him.
“You’re such a liar,” she countered, surprising him, ignoring the comment about paying her. “You are not all right. Whatever is bothering you is more than your ex-wife harassing you and your men. Talk to me. Please, Seth.”
Her quietly spoken ‘please’ nearly brought him to his knees. He turned and let her see the barely controlled frustration in him. He clenched his hands at his sides to keep from pulling her against him. “You over-step your bounds.”
The tiny woman shrugged one shoulder, which drew his gaze to her breasts. They were impressive for one so small. He longed to taste them, to lick his way around them, to….
He forced the heated thoughts aside. “Why do you push me? I already plan to--”
“Yes, I know,” she interrupted. “You plan to turn me over your knee and warm my bottom. Yada, yada, yada. I will get over that unpleasantness.”
“Yada, yada, yada?” He couldn’t keep the amusement from crashing through his irritation. “You dare much, little one. I can make that unpleasantness very unpleasant. ”
Annoyance flashed in her eyes and she straightened. “I’m sure you can. But do not think you can truly intimidate me. I submit to your dominance because I choose to. Remember that.”
He studied her for a second, thought about what she’d said. “You had never been spanked before, correct? Yet you didn’t fight going over my knee. It hurt. Yet you don’t fear feeling the flat of my hand again.”
“This is what you want to talk about, instead of what is troubling you?” She cocked her head and seemed to study him back. A standoff of sorts.
“Yes. Explain yourself.” He felt less edgy now, more curious, intrigued.
“No, I had never been spanked before. Never really punished in any manner. The experience was…odd. Painful, but not for long. More embarrassing than painful, really.”
He liked the way she faced him, talked to him honestly. “Yes, being bent over someone’s lap, having your bottom bared was probably embarrassing.” He’d never actually thought about it. His focus had always been on delivering the needed discipline.
“No ‘probably’ to it. The experience is embarrassing. Knowing you saw my bare bottom spread over your lap. Knowing you could see…well, my private place. Yes, embarrassing.” Her pretty cheeks had turned pink, which made him think of her pert bottom in exactly the position she described. His cock pushed at his jeans again and he longed to turn that sweet butt red, then he would shove between those hot cheeks and….
“I can tell where your thoughts have strayed, cowboy. Along a very naughty path.” She moved in front of him, letting him sense her desire as well. “We need to do this. Today. It’s time.”
Seth swallowed hard. His wolf wanted desperately to come out, wanted to take control. His voice had a low growl to it as he said,
