Chapter 21

Mia

It’s a peaceful night. The stars hang in the skies like someone put them there just for us. They dazzle and shine, casting a soft glow around Sebastian’s patio. There’s a gentle breeze, and I hug Sebastian close, letting his warmth heat me up.

The steaks are done, and Sebastian cooked some yummy sides to compliment the dish. We’ve eaten and now we’re enjoying the night, holding onto one another.

I swear it was Enzo at the market. It looked just like him, but when I went to chase after him, he was gone.

It makes me wonder if I’m just sleep deprived.

“Sebastian, I’m worried about what comes after everything.”

“What do you mean?” He’s lying back on the lounge chair and I sit up, so I’m straddling him.

“What happens after my father gets ratted out.”

He blows out a deep breath. “Mia, I just don’t know. I’ve been thinking about that, too.”

“I’m just wondering what this means for me and my future.”

“I’ll always take care of you.”

I smile at Sebastian, believing his words. “No, I mean, I want to open my own business. Now, with my name being ruined, I’m wondering if I’ll even be able to do that.”

Sebastian caresses my cheek. “You’ll be fine.”

I breathe in deeply through my nose. “Will they kill my father?” My eyes widen. “Will they kill me?”

“No, I’ll protect you.” Sebastian kisses my cheek, his hands running through my hair as he brings me closer to him. “I’ll take care of you.”

“What about my father?”

Sebastian shakes his head. “I’m not sure. I need to understand why he did all of this. Why he would do this to me, and to you.”

I kiss his full lips, letting his tongue enter my mouth. “Make me forget, please.” I’ve never wanted a man inside me as badly as I want Sebastian right now. It’s so painful I feel like my chest could burst into a million tiny pieces. My heart’s on fire, and I try to kiss away the ache and need I have for this man.

He grips my waist, growling as my lips meet his. “I need to be inside you.”

“Yes, sir.” I lift my skirt, pushing my panties to the side.

Sebastian stares at me. “No, I want you the way I want you.”

I’m not sure what this means, but I nod, agreeing to anything for him. “Yes, sir.”

He rises from the chair, holding his hand out for me to take.

I take it.

He leads me back inside and down the hallway to the master suite.

Sebastian goes to the same mahogany dresser and opens the top drawer, and I assume he’s going to get the blindfold and bindings once again, but he surprises me when he pulls out a paddle.

It reminds me of a ping-pong paddle, and I laugh a little until I notice Sebastian isn’t laughing.

“This is a paddle. I will punish you if you don’t do as I say.”

I stare at the paddle in his hand. “What if I don’t want to be spanked?”

Sebastian runs his teeth over his bottom lip. “Do you trust me?”

I nod. “Yes, I do.” And I so do. I know this man would never hurt me.

“Then you’ll have no reason to defy me, right?”

“Yes, sir.”

“Good.” He steps closer, slapping the paddle against his other palm. It makes a loud noise and my eyes widen with surprise. “Let’s get started.”

“Should I kneel before you?” I don’t really know what I’ve signed on for.

“Don’t worry, I won’t do anything to you that you don’t want me to. I promise you, you’ll love it.”

I nod. “Ok.”

“Now, get undressed and get on the bed.”

I do as he says, but a part of me wonders what will happen if I defy him. I decide to leave my panties on and climb onto the bed, disobeying Sebastian slightly.

I can’t help but smile back at him.

He tsks me as he moves closer, the wooden paddle resting against his shoulder. “Didn’t I say get completely undressed?”

“You did.”

“Are you disobeying me?”

I’ve never had a swarm of butterflies this wild in my belly before. I’m excited, and my heartbeat drums against my chest.

He climbs onto the bed, moving closer toward me. “On your knees, ass in the air.”

I do as he demands. I rest on my forearms, my head tucked close to the mattress, with my ass in the air like he wants.

He touches the paddle to my ass, slowly, gently. “I’m going to spank you twice, and then I want you to take off your panties.”

“Yes, sir.”

He growls when I call him sir, and it turns me on. I’m expecting the spank, and I tense my body. He pulls back his arm and swats my ass with the paddle. Not too hard, but enough to leave a sting of pain in its wake.

Ow.

His hand immediately replaces the sting, and he squeezes my right cheek with his palm, massaging away the pain. “Ready for the next one?”

I peek at him over my shoulder. “Yes, sir.”

He growls again, and this time brings the paddle down on my other ass cheek. Again, he massages away the pain with his hand.

I’m so wet. It wasn’t as painful as I thought it would be. In fact, it was the anticipation that really got me going. I almost want to ask him to spank me again, and harder.

Instead, I remove my panties, watching Sebastian’s eyes. They glaze over as they look at me, studying my body.

It makes the ache between my legs intensify. “Sebastian, I need you,” I tell him.

I resume all fours, and Sebastian sets the paddle down and unzips his pants.

“I’m going to fuck you soon, Mia,” he tells me. “Whenever I want to.” He tosses away his shirt. He runs his hand over my ass cheek with a smile. “Whenever I’m ready to… and I’m not ready yet.”

Oh fuck, he’s going to torture me.

I lean into his touch, wanting more from this man. I want it all. I want him inside me right now. “Sebastian, please,” I beg him.

“Such a needy little thing. Get on your back for me.”

I obey and he moves closer to the bed, climbing on and hovering over my body. He kisses along my torso, breasts, and collarbone. He spends a little time giving my nipples attention, and it makes me want him so much more.

The anticipation is back, wondering when he’ll enter me. I’m waiting for it. Warmth spreads throughout my body from limb to limb and I tingle with excitement.

I trust Sebastian. I trust him fully not to hurt me.

He kisses me on the lips, bringing his body down against mine. I like the weight of him on top of me, and I wrap my arms around him, bringing him closer to my skin. “I want to feel you,” I tell him, pulling him even closer. I feel safe with his body over mine.

“You will feel me soon.” He thrusts his dick against me, and it’s hard and ready.

I run my fingernails down his back, spreading my legs for him to get inside me.

But he doesn’t just yet. Instead, he continues to kiss my neck and the spot just under my ear that makes my skin erupt in goosebumps.

“I need you,” I tell him, ready for him to take me.

I’m so wet and turned on. The anticipation kills me, and I moan out his name, hoping soon he’ll take me and make me his.

That I’ll forever be his.

I want to forget about everything while he’s inside me. I want him to take away the anguish I feel with my looming situation.

Sebastian keeps kissing my skin, groaning against it, and the vibrations turn me on.

But he takes his time, kissing and feeling, enjoying my body as I get more and more worked up.

“Will you fuck me already?” I finally ask, when I can’t take much more of his teasing.

He lifts his head, laughing a bit. “I’m in control. Remember that.”

Oh, I’ll remember all right.

Like he could ever let me forget.
