Midnight Eternal Page 10

  “I don’t really know,” Gabriel said, shaking his head. “I do know that little girl doesn’t say much. I suppose we can ask Payton or Caleb.”

  I shook my head. “I don’t want to upset her. I’m really not sure if I want to attempt it with Bec, anyway. I still think it’s too dangerous.”

  “Do you mind if I research it, in case you change your mind?” I could see the excitement in Gabriel’s eyes. He loved a mystery.

  “I don’t mind. It would be good to know, I suppose.”

  Gabriel ended our conversation and I headed into the living room to find Payton and Shane talking and laughing.

  “Where’s Bec?” I asked Shane, glancing around the room.

  “Outside talking to our pets. I think Caleb, Sydney, and Caroline want to give her a few pointers.”

  The thought of Caleb, another man, talking to my mate about sex made me tense.

  “I know what you’re thinking,” Payton said, “but remember that Caleb is an excellent submissive. Even if Bec offered herself to him, he’d decline unless he had permission. And of course, I’m sure she’d never do that because it is clear to see how enamored she is with you.”

  “It’s a good idea for submissives to have other subs to talk to, anyway. Just as you come to other Doms for advice.”

  “Advice? If she has any questions, she can talk to me.” It hurt to think that there were things she couldn’t ask me.

  “I’m certain Gretchen talked to other submissives,” Gabriel pointed out. I was sure she had, too. The difference was, I really didn’t care what Gretchen did when she wasn’t with me. I’d never really cared much about what any of my submissives did when they weren’t with me. Of course, I’d wanted them to be faithful and obedient, but I’d never worried if I was fulfilling all of their emotional needs or not. In fact, with the human submissives, I’d made sure to find them a new Dom before I left them that would do just that. It had never bothered me before that my submissive might need someone other than me.

  “I just want to be everything for her.” I started to walk outside and could see them sitting in the garden talking. Gabriel stopped me before I got far.

  “This isn’t about what you want, Oliver. It’s about what your submissive needs.”

  I was about to argue when I heard Bec’s voice.

  “I’m so glad you said that. I thought I was the only one who felt that way.”

  “No, I get that feeling too sometimes,” Caleb agreed.

  “How does it work with you? I mean, if you don’t mind me asking.”

  “I don’t mind at all. Submissives are supposed to help each other, and your Master and my Mistress are great friends. I hope that you and I will be, too.” I could see both Bec and Caroline smile. “Anyway, it works for me the same as it does for you. I kneel and offer myself to my Mistress. She uses me just as your Master uses you.”

  “But, I mean, she doesn’t…she can’t…uh…”

  “Fuck me?” Caleb laughed. “Sure she can, and she does. I’d give myself in any way to make her happy, but when I come, just like you, sometimes I feel guilty.”

  I felt a knot form in my stomach. Had my girl said she felt guilty for coming? Why would she feel guilty?

  “I just feel like all of the pleasure should be his.” Her sweetness made me want to take her right then and there and give her countless orgasms. Didn’t she know that her pleasure made me happy?

  “You have to remember that you’ve given your body to your Master. It belongs to him,” Caroline spoke softly.

  “But it’s supposed to be for his pleasure.”

  “You may have been told that your body is for his pleasure, but that’s not completely accurate. What I think is more accurate would be to say, your pleasure is for his pleasure. Meaning, if he chooses to give you an orgasm, it is for his enjoyment.”

  “My Master does come harder and faster after he’s given me several orgasms,” Sydney said.

  “That’s what I mean. If your Master didn’t want you to feel good, trust me, you wouldn’t feel good. He’s doing it because it’s what he wants.”

  “Oh, I feel so much better now,” Bec sighed.

  I turned to see Gabriel smiling at me. “Yeah, yeah,” I conceded with a laugh. “So she needs to talk to other submissives.” As much as I wanted to be everything to her, I would have never been able to explain things to her like Caroline had because I didn’t really know what it was like to be a submissive. Even though I’d called Gabriel my Master—and he was in the sense of training—I’d never served him. I’d actually never served anyone, and as much as Payton tried to convince me to give it a shot, I never planned on relinquishing that control.

  We walked over slowly and joined our mates. I watched in amazement as Bec’s mating mark began to move more quickly as I approached. It was also extremely difficult to miss the unmistakable aroma of her freshly released arousal. I chuckled because it was evident by the scent in the air that my girl wasn’t the only one who reacted when her mate was near. I’d noticed this in the past, of course, but now it all seemed more real, more meaningful.

  Shane coughed. “Perhaps we could all use a bit of alone time.” I knew what he meant. It would be difficult to sit here and not take her.

  “Caroline and I were planning to go inside for a bit. Perhaps you could take Bec to show her the beach.”

  My parents headed for the house and I took my girl’s hand, pulling her up from the grass and into my arms. “Let’s go for a walk, shall we?”

  She nodded, and we headed for the trees that separated my parents’ lawn from the private beach.

  “Do you think they want to come with us?” Bec asked, turning around to look back at the two couples. She gasped at the sight in the distance. Shane was standing, pants around his ankles, with Sydney kneeling before him. He had his hands in her hair and was clearly fucking her face. Payton had removed her jeans and Caleb’s head was buried between her thighs. “Oh, I uh…I guess not.”

  Her face was bright red, though I could smell that she was highly aroused. “There is nothing to be embarrassed about. They are serving like good submissives should.”

  Her face paled. “Do you want me to serve you?”

  “Oh, Sweetheart, I do very much, but I want to go for a walk. I want to show you the beach.”

  We walked quietly for a bit. I knew she wanted to ask something, but I wanted to give her time to see if she would come to me on her own.

  “Did you know what they were going to do when we left?”

  She was still thinking about Sydney and Shane, and Payton and Caleb. I answered her honestly. “Yes. I knew they would enjoy each other.”

  “And you’re taking me to the beach, but you do plan on…on…enjoying me?”

  I nodded. “Yes, I do.”

  “Did you not want to stay with them because your sister was there?”

  I could tell she was worried again about being different, not one of us. “To be honest, it really doesn’t bother me at all to watch Sydney serve Shane. It did seem odd at first to see her in that role, though. She hasn’t always been a submissive, but has been Shane’s for about a hundred years now. Any awkwardness was gone decades and decades ago.”

  “Oh.”

  “But there is a reason I wanted to take you away from them. First, I wasn’t sure of your comfort level. I know you are quite the little exhibitionist.” I grinned at her. “After all, that’s how I found you. But I wasn’t sure how you would feel being that close and knowing for certain that others were watching.” She nodded. “Mostly, though, I just wanted you alone.”

  The smile on her face at my words was more radiant than the sun that was reflecting brightly off the water as we stepped out onto the sand.

  There was a small cabana with a few chairs and a table, along with other lounge chairs scattered around the beach.

  “It’s beautiful!” she exclaimed.

  “Yes, it is,” I replied, staring only at her.

  She looked up a
t me and saw the lust in my eyes. “Oh…Master…” her voice trailed off. I loved how she responded to my need.

  “What I’d like right now is to have you nude, on that chaise lounge. You smell delicious and I want to feed from you. I need you to understand, however, that even though this is a private beach, you cannot own the water. People may still sail by, or even jog past us. Once I begin, I will not stop—not even if a crowd gathers.”

  I could hear her heart pounding furiously in her chest and watched her eyes scan the water and sand. I knew that very few people sailed close to shore on this part of the lake, and the likelihood of a jogger was small, let alone a crowd forming. My little girl, however, did not. Still, she began to immediately disrobe, and once nude, lay on the chair, her legs spread wide open.

  “Such a good little one. When I’m finished, you will get a reward.”

  “Thank you, Master, but serving you is reward enough.” I thought back to Caroline’s words, knowing I should reiterate them for her.

  “Rewarding you, watching your pleasure, gives me great satisfaction.”

  “That’s all I want, Master—for you to be satisfied.”

  No more words were spoken as I moved between her legs and took what was mine. I lapped and licked, nipped and sucked until I’d drunk from her several times.

  She was panting, coming down from her third orgasm when I licked my lips and looked up at her.

  “Would you like to drink my come or for it to fill you? This is your reward, so it is your choice. Both will make me happy.”

  She thought for a moment. “In me please, Master.”

  It made me a bit nervous because I wasn’t sure how much Bocaj strength she had left in her, but one look at her mark—dark and moving as rapidly as her heart was beating—left me no doubt that she was ready and able to take me.

  Holding her hips, I guided myself in slowly, but it wasn’t long before I had her ankles on my shoulders and was pounding into her. She screamed in pleasure as I swelled and filled her with my come.

  Honestly, when I pulled out and instructed her to clean me off, I wasn’t going to come again, but a few minutes later, as a result of her sucking and moaning, I shot my load down her throat.

  She waited until I pulled out of her mouth like a good girl. Licking her lips, she glanced up at me, waiting for what was next.

  “I’d love to stay here and fuck you all afternoon, but I think we should visit a bit more with my family before heading back to the penthouse.”

  She started to get dressed and looked down at the sticky mess between her legs. “Do you think they’ll be able to tell we had sex?”

  “I have no doubt they will know. Does that upset you?”

  She smiled. “No, actually I kind of like it.”

  I shook my head. “I bet you do. You’re a naughty little girl.” I slapped her ass, and she giggled as she took off running through the trees. Just before she stepped onto the manicured lawn, I grabbed her around the waist. “Wait one moment.”

  I looked into the yard to see both couples fully clothed and engaged in conversation. “Coast is clear.” As I took her hand and we started toward them, a thought occurred to me. “Although, if we go to the club, you will see all of that and more. Are you alright with that?”

  “Yes, I think so.”

  I stopped and turned to face her. “You aren’t sure?”

  “It’s not that I would mind what I’ll see. I kinda want to see it. I think it will be hot. It’s just, I’ve never been anywhere like that before. I don’t want to do anything stupid. I don’t want to embarrass you.”

  “Oh, my love. You won’t embarrass me. There is no correct way to act. You just need to be the good little submissive that I know you are.”

  “What if no one likes me?”

  “That would be a relief,” I laughed, causing her eyes to open wide. “I’m afraid everyone will like you.”

  Once again, my baby smiled and I knew that she’d be wonderful on Wednesday.

  The rest of the day was great, and Bec fit in just like I knew she would.

  “I hope to see you next Sunday,” Caroline said as we were getting ready to leave.

  “You are welcome here anytime, Bec,” Gabriel added. “Caroline and I would love to get to know you better, and of course we always like to see Oliver.”

  She looked at me with a sparkle in her eyes. “We’d love to come back next Sunday, though you won’t need to wait that long to see us. We’re coming to the club Wednesday.”

  “Holy shit!” Shane exclaimed. “You said you’d never allow her there.”

  I shot him a look that shut him up, but I felt the need to explain anyway. “I didn’t want to make Bec uncomfortable. It turns out, she’d like to go.”

  “Gretchen will be there,” Payton said softly.

  “I sure hope so. She said some, uh, not so nice things to my girl yesterday, and I think Gretchen needs to see just how important Bec is to me.” I touched my mate’s mark softly, though it still caused her to gasp, and I was positive that everyone in the room knew of the wave of arousal that rushed from her body.

  “That woman is a bitch!” Sydney chimed in.

  “Sydney! Remember the submissive’s oath. We don’t put down other submissives.”

  “No, Sydney is right. Gretchen is a bitch. And what happened to her end of the oath? Bec is a submissive who should have been treated with respect. Even more so because she is so new to this.”

  “Maybe what she said was an accident…a misunderstanding.” It was sweet how Caroline always thought the best of everyone.

  “She said that the only reason I collared Bec—though she referred to her as a bitch instead of by name—was so she wouldn’t run off.”

  “What?” Caroline’s eyes opened wide.

  “She said more,” Bec whispered softly, looking at the floor. “Trudy, the woman at the salon, told her to leave Oliver alone because he was happy. Gretchen said that if he were really happy, he’d bring me by the club. Then she said that I am just a toy, and he’s probably embarrassed being seen with me.” Bec’s voice broke. “She said he’ll get bored of me and then go back to her—a member of his own kind.”

  It was quiet for a moment, and I was about to say something when Caroline exclaimed. “That bitch!”

  I couldn’t help but laugh, as did everyone else.

  “Sweetie, you are one of us. You and Oliver are mated. You belong with him, with us.”

  “Caroline is right. You are part of this family. I’m sure Oliver has assured you that what she said can’t be further from the truth, but if there is ever anything we can do, our door is always open to you.”

  She hugged Caroline again, and then Gabriel while my mother hugged me. “Alright, I need to get her home. See you all Wednesday.”

  “See you tomorrow,” Shane said, reminding me of work. “Or are you two retiring already?”

  I groaned at the thought, but at least Bec and I would be together. It really would depend on if I could tear myself away from her long enough to let her get dressed again. “We’ll see,” I said with a smile as I ushered my girl out the door, hoping the drive home went quickly so I could get her in bed as soon as possible.

  Chapter Ten

  butterfly

  It hadn’t even been a week since I’d gone to work. Nothing really changed, but everything was different. First of all, Oliver and I drove in together; we walked into the building together, too.

  He stood several feet from me as we waited for the elevator, and I looked at him curiously. He hadn’t touched me once since we’d left the car, which was the longest we had gone without physical contact since he’d revealed himself to me. When the elevator chimed we stepped in, finding ourselves alone in the car.

  I took a breath and asked him what was on his mind. “You haven’t touched me since we got here. Is something wrong?”

  “No, nothing is wrong. It’s hard to keep my hands off of you, but as much as I control the playroom and set the pac
e in the bedroom, we are at work. I wasn’t sure if you’d like our relationship made public or not, so what you decide to tell people, if anything, is up to you.”

  I smiled up at him, but the look he gave me in return was pure lust. “Like I said, this is at work, but at home…you are all mine. And this,” he growled, squeezing my ass, “is going to get spanked tonight for wearing such a sexy outfit and driving me out of my mind today.” I gasped. “Don’t think I forgot about training that little asshole to take my cock, either. Maybe…just maybe, we’ll start tonight.”

  I knew my mouth was hanging open when the elevator doors opened to our floor. He strode away from me, leaving me standing there practically paralyzed. The closing of the elevator doors was the only thing that snapped me out of it, and I quickly pressed the button to reopen them before I ended up on another floor.

  “Geez, Bec! Rough weekend?” Candy asked, walking up to me. “I mean, it’s really not that hard. Get in, press button, get out.”

  Fuck her. I didn’t say it, but I wanted to. Instead, I put on my, ‘why don’t you go eat shit smile’ and responded to her question. “No, it wasn’t a rough weekend. I just didn’t get much sleep.”

  “Yeah, Shane said you took some personal time Thursday and Friday. Was there like some sort of wizard convention or vampire thing? I know how much you like to read.”

  You know, she was right; I did like to read. I even liked the books that she was referring to, but she made it sound like that was all my life was about. Oliver had said it was up to me how much I disclosed, so I decided to give her just a little taste. “Actually, I was with a guy. We stayed in.”

  I turned and walked away, but she was right behind me. “Wait…a guy? As in a guy guy?” What the fuck other kind was there? “Like, not a relative?” Oh, apparently that was the other kind. What a fucking bitch. I almost turned around and told her it was the guy she’d been trying to land, and that he was even more amazing in bed than she could have ever imagined, but the presence of Shane stopped me.

  “Hey, Bec,” Shane said, walking up to Candy and me. “You forgot your jacket at the house yesterday. And by the way, that dress you were wearing was smokin’.”
