I placed my hand over Ethan’s and squeezed him. “I know,” I said, hefir gnawing on my bottom lip, I wasn’t worried about that, but what I was worried about might be the death of mr. “So, how would orgasm denial help me?” I asked the question while trying not to be completely close–minded to what they wanted in this situating
Seth tilted his head and watchest me as he spoke, A lot of it has to do with control. The ability to hold it back, to make it last Jonget, it’s more pleasure for a longer omount of tline and when it happens it’s explosive. It’s also about giving up control too, in this case, giving up control to Ethan-
“Why not you?” I asked.
Seth hesitated before answering, “I–I’m not sure that I want to dominate you, but I’m not submissive either. All the same, I think I d give in too soon to you.”
I raised an eyebrow, “Really? What does that mean?” I felt like I was missing something, that maybe even Seth was on the verge of missing too,
Ethan cleared his throat and I could just barely feel his smile spreading across the side of my neck. Ethan got and I missing?
So what was Seth
“1–a, Seth started, then stopped once we got to the front desk. “I don’t know what that means,
Cass.
Jkt I did. I knew. Seth had a way in how he treated women. He would open the door for them; sit in the backseat so they could hav the front, let them walk in front of him so he could see all incoming threats… I’d noticed this early on, in his and Ethan’s relationship. It didn’t matter who the woman was. She could be a vagid, conniving bitch–I’ve seen it and he would still treat her like royalty. Seth was careful. He treated each woman like they were a precious commodity. Now that I’m thinking about it, he’d always been that way with me too..
Well, except for that time at The Coffee Barn, but that

explained.
I wondered if his ‘no desire to dominate me had anything to do with his past or his family’s business, I think I knew.
“Hey Seth, not to be a downer,” I started, “but do you know what happened to that girl?”
I didn’t have to specify. He knew I meant the girl hed lost his virginity to. And my hunch was right; I’d decided when his face softened. Instead of thinking about the force in the situation, he thought about the girl I was thankful for that. I didn’t want to change the mood, but I was still curious.
She was killed, Seth spoke softly.
I’m sorry,” I whispered, not pushing the topic any more than necessary
“Holy shit! Look who it is!”
I jolted as the deep, gritty new voice jerked my attention away from Seth and I glanced towards the man behind the desk. It looked fairly normal… the desk, not the man. The man was a little taller tun Ethan, but not as tall as Seth, and his arms were the size of
my head.
Perhaps a little over–exaggeration, but this guy was getting close to the wrestler status of the John Cena/Rock variety. His sun- kissed skin, bedroom brown eyes, and plump red–tinted lips had nothing on his numerous tattoos and piercings. Honestly, if it wasn’t for that, I would’ve felt like our appointment was at a doctor’s office and not a BDSM club.
I bit my lip and frowned. Was that me passing judgment? This guy could be a secretary if he wanted too, Tattoos and piercings shouldn’t matter.

“Hey, Avery! Seth said, his sudden happiness breaking the somber angsphere Ed created.
I watched as they did the usual smacking hands, humping flats thing that guys did and tried to listen casually to their small tajk.
Avery? Wasn’t that the guy….
“Ooh, you’re the tying up artist Ethan says we can’t use because I run at the drop of a hat, which I don’t, by the way.”
took me almost a minute to realize I’d spoken. Another minute me to register what I’d said and still the quict in the room continued. I could feel my face burning. It was spreading down to my chest. I had a low cut shirt on so I knew anyone that looked could see my splotchy throat.
Avery released a deep breath. “Well, that happened.”
I slapped a hand over my
mouth.
Oh my God. I’m dying.
Avery chuckled and stood up. He pressed a button and a beep sounded. “Gabe, you’re eleven o’clock is here.” An affirmative from a gravelly voice sounded and Avery’s intense gaze settled on me once again.
“If only there was quicksand beneath my feet, I mumbled. Ethan’s arms tightened around my waist and I sighed, against him. “Why can’t you ever tell me to shut up when you know m about to say something stupid, Ethan?
He gave a helpless shrug.
settling back
“I didn’t think your third party was a woman,” Avery said to Seth and Ethan, but his eyes remained on me. “Does that blush go all the way down?”
Ethan shifted and nudged the bottom of my shirt up so that he could splay his warm hand against my bare stomach. “Yes,” he said, his voice heavy with desire.
