“Can you please get dressed?” It would give her time to grab a robe and not be completely na**d in front of him.
“So you can hide from me? I don’t think so.” He stayed where he was. “We’re going to see each other naked. I don’t see why it shouldn’t be now.”
“That’s easy for you to say. You’re like a god while I’m blubber.”
He glared at her. “Step off the bed now!”
His voice deepened. Dawn stared at him wondering if she could simply go back to bed and sleep without him ordering her around.
“Don’t disobey me, Dawn. I was willing to wait until tomorrow, and all you’ve done is test me. I don’t like being tested.” He stayed still even as his voice travelled throughout the room. The Alpha inside him raised the hairs all over her body. Her cl*t swelled at the command within his voice. Slowly, keeping the lace in front of her, she stepped off the bed.
“Drop the lace. You’re not hiding from me.” He walked toward the door and flicked the light, illuminating the whole room. There was no hiding anymore. He made sure of that.
“This is unfair.”
“Unfair is having a mate for a whole year denying you. Unfair is that mate fingering herself instead of coming to her Dom. Don’t even begin to tell me what’s unfair or not. You’ll not like what I’ve got to say.” He folded his arms once again.
His gaze was on hers, waiting.
“I can’t do this.”
“Yes, you can. If you don’t I promise you there’ll be a severe punishment, one you won’t like.”
What wouldn’t she like? She’d pushed Daniel the entire year they’d known each other. He had every right to be mad and punish her. How far would he go to consider her punished?
The uncertainty was too much for her. She gripped the lace tightly, before slowly stepping from behind the security of the lace.
She kept her head bowed and pressed her palms together in an attempt to control her shaking. Letting a man see her na**d took a lot of effort for her. She was used to pushing her skirt up and having the man suck her ni**les through the shirt. Her entire sexual life was appalling. The only man who’d seen her na**d were dead. She’d let him hurt her in the worst kind of ways.
“Look at me, Dawn.”
Glancing up at him, she didn’t know what she expected to find. Would he lose his erection? Show any signs that he hated what he saw?
Again she was in a strange territory for her.
His c**k remained rock hard. He’d not deflated or grown flaccid since seeing her naked.
“What did you expect to see?” he asked. He didn’t make a move to touch his cock.
“What do you mean?”
“Don’t play dumb. I’m not stupid. I see in your eyes that you were expecting something from me. What?”
The desire to lie struck her again.
Don’t lie to him. He’ll know.
“I didn’t expect you to be hard.”
“Why wouldn’t I be hard?”
She stared at the tip of his cock. He was glistening, aroused.
“Look at me,” she said, releasing her hands so not an inch of her was covered. “I’m not beautiful. I eat too much, and you’re perfect. You should be a model or something.”
His arms remained folded over his chest. Neither of them said a word. He kept looking at her. There was something in his gaze that she couldn’t quite put her finger on. “Get on your knees,” he said. The words were spoken slowly, with menace, leaving no mistake of his anger.
Shit, what had she done?
Chapter Five
Daniel was pissed off with her lack of self-esteem. Didn’t she know how beautiful she was?
“What?” she asked.
“Get on your knees. Don’t make me repeat myself. We’re going to deal with this the only way you know how.” He watched her struggle with his demand. There was no way he intended to help her. The moment he scented her arousal he thought he was losing his mind. When he heard her moans, he’d gotten angry. She wouldn’t let him touch her intimately, and yet she’d do whatever she could to satisfy herself. How many times had she left him in an aroused state while she took care of her own needs? He hadn’t been with another woman since she entered his world.
“Daniel?”
“No. To you I’m not Daniel. You’ll call me Sir or Master, I don’t care which. I was going to do this slowly for you to trust me, but we’re going to start now. You’re my sub. In the mornings you will wake up at seven, go to the bathroom, and you’ll be waiting for me by seven thirty beside your bed. I expect you on your knees, ready to serve me.” He took a step closer. Dawn was on her knees, her head bent in the perfect pose.
There was something about a submissive woman in that pose that turned him on. His c**k was aching on the point of pain. The scent of her arousal filled the air. His wolf wanted to do nothing more than stake his claim. Daniel made sure he stayed in complete control.
“You’ll eat breakfast with me. We’ll train together, and you’re going to become my sub. For the next month I’m going to prove to you that you’re my mate.” He gripped her chin as she started to shake her head. Forcing her to look at him, he stared into her eyes. “You’re my mate, Dawn. In time you’ll see the truth. We’re going to get to the bottom of those secrets you’ve kept hidden.”
“You don’t know what you’re doing.”
“Baby, I’ve been a Dom for over ten years. I’ve got more experience with stubborn little subs than you do with Doms. You’re nothing but a baby compared to me, and I’m going to prove it to you over and over again.” She stopped fighting him. Her teeth bit down onto her lip. “Stop that.” He pulled her lip from between her teeth. “You think you know what true pain is, but you’ve got no idea what’s really wrong with you. Don’t worry. I can deal with you.”
He reached down, grabbing her arm and drawing her up toward his body.
She fought him, and he continued to hold her. Her arousal intensified. Not once did she scream for him to stop or tell him no.
Pressing her to the bed, he grabbed her hands pressing them above the bed, holding both of her hands in one of his. With his free hand he glided his hand down her body.
“You could have come to me and I’d know exactly what to do to bring you off.”
She laughed, the sound harsh and bitter. “You’d be the first man.”
