“Yes, Sir. Please, more.” Her breath hitched when he continued to penetrate.

The burn grew, as did the fullness. Such a wicked thing, having him there. Yet she couldn’t imagine anyone else owning her so completely. Dazed and taken, feeling completely under his spell, she trembled and waited for him to stop.

“You okay?” he rasped and finally ceased moving. “Christ, I’m in. All inside that tight, fuckable ass. You know how many times I used to dream about this? Every time you’d bend over in those tight shorts, every time you flaunted yourself after telling me to kiss your ass… I wanted to kiss it. To fuck it.” He leaned over her back and seated himself deeper.

She moaned, hurting yet aroused all over again.

“Yeah. That’s it.” He kissed her shoulder and the small of her back. Then he let go of her waist to hold her shoulders. “Oh, that’s good.” Mac withdrew a little, which eased the pressure inside her. And then he thrust forward again, getting better penetration because he used her shoulders to grip her. “Yeah.” He moaned and started fucking her, slowly, then faster as she moaned and pleaded for more.

More pain, more fucking, more feeling like a woman born to be owned.

“That’s a good girl.” He pumped harder, his balls slapping her pussy. “You feel good, Maggie.”

Hearing her name cemented something between them. He wasn’t imaging some other woman. No other sub or baby.  She warmed and felt herself drift, lost in Mac and his hold over her body.

“Fuck. I’m gonna come. Right up inside you.” He yanked her back against him, grinding against her hips as he groaned and came.

He didn’t let her go, even after she felt him soften inside her.

Mac eased his hands from her shoulders, stroking her back and hips as he straightened on his knees behind her. “Shit. I left bruise marks on your hips.”

“I like it, Sir.” She felt drugged.

“Good. Because I like seeing them there.” His satisfaction was hard to miss. “I left a lot of cum in you, sub. And you’re going to let it stay there.” He withdrew. “Get down on your belly while I go clean up.”

He left her and returned with a damp rag. As Mac cleaned her with a gentle touch, she started to come down off her high.

“You good, baby?”

“Yes, Sir.” She sighed. “I don’t think I can move.”

He chuckled and finished with the cloth. She closed her eyes, content to lie there, even when she started to feel the cold.

“Can’t have you shivering.” Mac pulled the covers out from under her and tucked them both in. After a few moments, when she’d just started to fall asleep, drugged on his warmth, he spoke again. “Maggie, you okay?”

“Mm-hmm.”

“You’d tell me if you weren’t, right? I mean, I’m your master. I told you to tell me the truth. You’re sure you’re fine?”

“I said so, didn’t I?” she wanted to snap but could barely think past the need to snuggle into his warmth.

“No discipline,” she thought she heard him say before he sighed and spooned her against him.

Maggie woke the next morning disoriented. She’d had the best dream ever. Total submission to Mac Jameson, and he’d been the best master she could have hoped for. Domineering, overwhelming, and so strong.

Something hard and hot nudged her from behind.

No dream. That was totally real. Her mind blanked as she processed how she felt about him. Then she smiled. “I rock.”

He chuckled against her neck and dragged her leg over his. On her side, she had little leverage to stop him. Not that she wanted to. When he thrust inside her and started fucking her, she didn’t argue.

“That’s it. Give it to me,” he ordered as he demanded her pleasure. Mac filled her, stretching out her tight pussy and then rubbing her clit with a callused thumb. “Come for me, sub. Come hard.”

She followed his lead, letting her body fall over the edge with him, caught in his pleasure as much as her own.

After a few moments, he withdrew and hauled her out of bed with him. “Time to shower.” He made a face. “You’re full of cum.”

She snorted. “Your cum. And don’t give me any more Master crap. We’re out of bed. It’s a new day.” She had to put herself back on equal footing and fast, because Maggie felt wobbly. She wanted to continue the subservience thing, to see how far they could take it. But that meant getting deeper with Mac. Mind-blowing sex added to fulfilled fantasies of a guy she thought she might really like scared the crap out of her.

“I knew you’d be like this.” He sighed and dragged her into the bathroom. He turned toward the toilet and she hightailed it out of there.

“I am not watching you pee.” That was way too intimate—a crazy thought considering what they’d done last night and this morning. But bathroom privileges meant relationship. Not going there.

After the toilet flushed and he came out with a frown, she pushed past him and locked herself in the bathroom.

“Hey,” he shouted through the door.

“Hold on.” After taking care of her needs, she turned on the shower, then let him back in. “Okay. Now we can shower.”

“You’re so controlling.”

She had to laugh as they washed up. Maggie watched him soap those impressive muscles, turned on yet comfortable with him. Which was just weird.

Mac watched her just as intently. “Wash your tits. Yeah, play with your nipples until they get nice and hard.” The spray of water covered his face, and drops clung to his lashes, making them look impossibly long. “I’m taking a mental picture.” He grinned. “The next time you’re giving me shit at work, just know I’ll be seeing you naked and covered in water and bubbles.”

She rinsed off. “Yeah? Well I’ll be ignoring your demands at work. All the while I’ll be remembering how good you were, coming in my ass. So big and full,” she whispered. When he leaned close to kiss her, she shoved him back. “Uh uh. Playtime’s over, big guy. I hate to kick you out, but I have work to do.”

He blinked. “What?”

“Sorry. I had a lot of fun. I mean, you were great.” She wanted to laugh at his crestfallen expression. Had he thought she’d bow at his feet all weekend? She’d had an itch he’d more than scratched, as well as a dangerous warmth in her heart for the stubborn man. Not something she wanted to explore at the moment. She needed to get back to work. And protect my heart, whispered her sense of self-preservation.

Mac’s frown slowly turned into a considering nod. “You’ve got a point. Time for me to go. I guess I’ll see you at work tomorrow, huh?”

“Ah, right. Sunday.” She had a class at four. A new step aerobics routine to work through with her experienced Sunday group before the rush returned on Monday.

Mac got out first, and Maggie took some extra time to compose herself before turning off the shower and stepping out. She dried off and dressed in her room, ignoring Mac while he watched her with eagle eyes.

“What?” she snapped.

He buttoned his jeans and threw on his shirt, then stopped to stare at her. “Embarrassed? Don’t be, sweetness. You were terrific.”

She knew that tone. Oddly enough, his arrogance soothed her. People who annoyed each other as much as she and Mac did would never have a relationship. Nothing meaningful, anyway. The sex, that she could handle.

“Thanks, hunk-of-love,” she drawled. “You and that monster cock were impressive.” Then to goad him, she added, “A little quick on the draw, but you said you’d been in a dry spell, like me. So that makes sense.”

“Excuse me?”

Pleased she’d struck her target, she nodded. “Yeah. You really know how to work that Dom angle. Very sexy. You’re big and thick. You definitely know how to use what you’ve got. I was just surprised you were so, um, quick. But it was good,” she hastened to add.

“Yeah?” He glared at her, a familiar sight that turned her on all over again. “I’m thinking that next time you need a little more discipline. Some added punishment for being such a brat.”

A next time. She wanted to clap with glee. Who said blonds were dumb? Maggie had finagled another sexual encounter with Mac without asking for one or looking vulnerable. Instead, she’d let his pride work in her favor. He’d make her pay, she was sure, but man, she couldn’t wait.

She swallowed her satisfaction and finished dressing in her scrub clothes, what she normally wore when working in her makeshift studio. “Punish away if it makes you feel better, Mac.”

He snarled something before leaving her bedroom and slamming out the front door.

Game set and match. Maggie laughed out loud before making herself some coffee. She hummed a Christmas carol under her breath and thought about getting a tree. Her good mood lasted throughout the weekend and into the next week.

* * *

Two days later, Mac still had no idea where he’d gone wrong. He’d controlled the woman, had put her through her paces, and had the best damn orgasms of his life. She’d come hard too, had drenched him with her release and fallen asleep in his arms. A total girlfriend move that had freaked him out when he’d woken… until he’d felt her ass against his cock and had incredible morning sex.

So for her to dismiss him so casually, to have the nerve to accuse him of being “quick on the draw,” made no sense that he could understand. No one criticized his technique. Not since Mrs. O’Leary had shown him how to pleasure a woman, her graduation gift to the newly enlisted Marine, had Mac ever been close to being sexually lacking. And even then, Mrs. O’Leary had praised him for his enthusiasm.

“That little witch.” The hell of it was, he still wanted to paddle Maggie’s ass, then fuck her until she cried out his name. Somehow, she’d turned his dread of the morning after into a promise to be back for more, and all while insulting his pride and stamina in the same breath.
