That was music to my ears.
“Promises. Promises.” I tried to shrug and look unconvinced, but the breathy tone in my voice made it unbelievable.
Oh well.
If I was lucky, that would make him even more eager to put me in my place.
“You’re pushing your luck.” His expression looked stern and like people shouldn’t walk past him in a dark alley.
But he pinched my ass again.
Best Dom ever.
And I was the best distraction ever.
Chapter 4
Micha
“It could be pink.” Ashton bounced around excitedly as we walked in the front door, wiggling and making sure to look adorably mischievous. “With sparkles.”
I was pretty sure he’d read that in a book somewhere, but I didn’t care which one.
“How about I get you clamps that sparkle?” He’d been teasing me on and off all through dinner, grinning as he decided what kind of pup I could be. He could’ve picked worse ways to distract me, but Ashton seemed to have settled on a guard dog that loved pink…and again…I was pretty sure that came out of a book.
He giggled, nearly dancing deeper into the house. “Sparkles.”
“Trouble.” The implied threat or maybe the teasing tone had his giggle sounding decidedly naughty as he nearly skipped up the stairs, no longer remembering he was being weird and dramatic in the house so he didn’t have to talk about anything stressful. “I think it’s time to remind you who’s in charge here.”
Oh, he was looking forward to that…a scene he loved and wasn’t stressful at all…well, not unless we counted how he was going to moan and beg.
“Me.” His cheerful tone said he was grinning ear to ear. “I hold the leash, so I’ll be in charge.”
“That’s not how it works.” He’d learn, though. “I’ve got some interesting ways to hold a naughty tease, though.”
A quiet moan floated down the stairs before he caught himself. “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
As far as comebacks went it barely registered, but it meant his brain was already wonderfully distracted.
“That’s okay. I’m in charge.” And I definitely knew what I was talking about.
“I think…” He paused as I finally made my way into the bedroom, clearly stuck with what to say, and somehow, stuck in his shirt as well. “I think I wiggled too much.”
Only Ashton could get trapped in a button-down shirt.
“That’s what happens when you’re naughty.” Even his clothes knew he liked to misbehave. “Freeze.”
He just kept making it worse…and I wasn’t sure how.
“I don’t know what happened.” He barely held himself back from tugging on his arms. They were trapped behind him and he’d gotten the sleeves wrapped around his wrists. “I flipped it over my head and then…then I don’t know what happened.”
He’d gotten distracted.
That was his strategic error and I could see the moment he realized it. All it took was one hand wrapped around the shirt to have his arms pinned behind his back and for him to feel wonderfully helpless.
Ashton inhaled sharply, but as soon as the feeling of being trapped hit him, his body tried to melt against mine. “I…I should…I was going to take that off.”
“I know.” Keeping the stern expression he loved was difficult, but it was worth it to see his gaze go foggy. “I also know you’ve been very naughty.”
He barely held back the moan we both knew he wanted to make, but he was trying to play along and shook his head. “I…I think you’d be cute. Do…do you want a different color?”
My adorable brat.
“Oh, I like pink, but not on a collar.” Running my free hand up his chest, I kept his body close to mine. “There are a lot of places I love that color, though.”
Pinching one nipple sharply, I tugged it and let the pain flash through him. “I love it all over you. Look at that. I knew your nipple would look even better with a bit more color. Let’s see the other one too.”
Beautiful.
His sounds were beautiful too.
“I…you should…um…” Part of Ashton wanted to sink into the pleasure but the rest of him still couldn’t resist trying to tease me. “Pink.”
“Yes…I’m going to make you pink and desperate and you’re going to beg to come by the time I’m done with you.” The shiver that raced through him would’ve made it clear how much he loved that idea, but his breathy sound and the way his hips thrust forward to grind his dick against my thigh was even better.
It meant I got to punish him.
Shaking my head, I made a tsking sound as I gave each nipple another pinch. “Don’t be naughty. You need to find your patience.”
Oh, that got a full-throated groan from him, filled with need and just a hint of frustration. “But…I…”
“Yes. You know what bad behavior that was, but I’m going to help correct it.” And I was going to enjoy it too. “Let’s get you naked and displayed for me.”
