Chapter Seven
Group therapy is bullshit. I don’t want to be here. Instead, I sit and cross my arms over my chest. Dr. Tabitha Sawyer is the one leading, so all of the other trainers and psychiatrists are elsewhere.
When we walked in here, Tabitha made some off-hand comments, implying that Thane was dumb. I am so pissed; I just want to go back to my room and relax. I am completely checked out and intentionally ignoring everyone.
“Ayla, did you hear me?” Tabitha asks.
“No,” I say simply.
“Do you want to introduce yourself?”
“No,” I scoff.
“Ayla,” Thane says. I am sitting with the other participants, but the trainers who stuck around are leaning against the wall, chatting quietly.
“It’s okay,” Tabitha says.
“I don’t think I fucking asked for your help, bitch. Eddie Chavez said he was going to help, and you see where that landed me,” I snap at her.
“Well, we can just go to the next person,” Tabitha says, completely unbothered by my attitude. “Clara, why don’t you go next?”
I roll my eyes and ignore everyone for the rest of therapy.
When it’s time to leave, I get up and stomp out of the room.
When the elevator door opens, I step in and move to the back.
Thane pulls me over to stand between him and Reid.
For multiple reasons, I know I am in trouble.
I can just tell by the way Thane glances over at me.
When we get out on the third floor, Thane and Reid instruct me to go to the training room and wait for them.
When I walk into the room, I look around at all of the toys and tools lining the walls.
There are restraints in various spots like the ceiling, floor, walls, a Saint Andrew’s Cross, a table, and a spanking bench.
I only know what this stuff is because my dorm roommate was super into BDSM during my second year in college.
I wander around the room looking at everything. I know I am in trouble, but I try not to focus on it. Eventually, Thane and Reid walk into the room.
“Undress,” Thane says simply, shutting the door behind him.
“Yes, Sir,” I answer quietly. I obediently take my clothing off because I don’t want to make the situation any worse.
I know I fucked up several times. Once I’m naked, Thane points to the bench.
It is designed so that I am kneeling on a lower platform while I am lying over the top.
There are restraints in various spots for my wrists.
I kneel, and my legs spread slightly, giving them a view of my ass and pussy.
Thane pulls my arms behind me and restrains them with black leather cuffs. “Do you know why you are getting punished?” Thane asks me.
“Because I was mean to Tabitha,” I say quietly.
“And?” he asks.
“Uhh…”
“I told you to come to this training room and wait for me. Instead, you disobeyed me and spied,” Thane says. “No matter if you meant well, you disobeyed me.”
“I did. I’m sorry,” I say.
“Because of this, I feel like it’s only fair that Reid gives the spanking,” Thane says.
“Me?” Reid asks.
“Yep,” Thane says. “To your extent, and you can use a paddle if you want.”
“Uhm,” I say.
“No talking. Actually…” Thane stops for a moment before walking somewhere in the room. When he returns, he leans down in front of me. “Open your mouth.”
I do, and he pushes a metal ring into my mouth, forcing my jaw to stay open.
Straps are tied around my head, and I whine as I lay my head down.
Thane grabs me by the hair and pulls my head up.
At the same time, something is placed in my left hand.
I feel it, but I don’t know what it is. “Press the center, and it will click,” Thane says softly.
“That is your safe word, since you can’t say it. Okay?”
I nod, and he kisses my cheek before moving away from me.
I squeeze my eyes closed and try to focus on relaxing.
I hear movement, but no one is talking. A paddle abruptly slaps across my ass, and I scream as fire erupts across my skin.
The next hit makes me tear up. He smacks the paddle across my ass over and over again.
I go from whimpering to crying, and then I get mad.
Each hit pisses me off, and I scream at him.
I am trying to speak nasty words to him, but I can’t.
Maybe that’s why he put this on me, so I didn’t get myself into more trouble.
When the anger finally goes away, the calm takes over. I groan instead of whimpering or screaming, so he hits me once more. I groan again, and he stops. “Don’t move or speak,” Thane says softly as he takes the gag off me. My hands are released, but I just bring them up to bury my head in my arms.
I feel a cold oil drip on my ass before large, warm hands rest on my ass and start massaging the oil into my skin.
I groan as the soreness is irritated. I don’t move as he spreads the oil out.
He covers my ass, both backs of my thighs, and my inner thighs.
My breath catches when he gets dangerously close to my pussy.
I glance up to verify who is touching me, and I see Thane watching from a small distance away.
“Go on,” Thane says.
“I can’t,” Reid says with an unconvincing tone.
“She’s fucking dripping, Reid. You did that,” Thane says. “Ayla?”
“Yes, Sir?” I ask warmly.
“You took your punishment well. For that, I’d like to reward you by letting Reid take care of you. Is that something you would enjoy?”
“Yes, Sir. I would love that,” I say. His hand moves up my inner thighs as he sighs heavily.
“See?” Thane says. “Everyone needs a toy to take their frustrations out on.”
I moan when he abruptly pushes his fingers into my pussy and slowly fucks me. “Fuck, that’s good,” I sigh.
“Fuck, there are so many rules against this,” Reid groans as he grips my ass with his other hand.
“Fuck the rules and fuck me,” I moan, pushing my hips back
“Fuck it,” Reid mutters as he pulls his fingers out of me. He unzips his pants, and with one swift motion, he grabs me by my hips and forces his cock deep into my cunt. He is so fucking big that I instantly try to pull away, but he starts ramming into me.
“Oh, God!” I moan. “Please. Yes. Oh my God!”
“This tight little cunt,” Reid growls as he slams into me.
Little by little, he is pulling me back off the bench so my knees are on the mat below.
Once I’m there, he lies and pulls me down to straddle him so I can take him back into my pussy.
This allows me to rock my hips as he thrusts his hips up, causing our bodies to violently collide.
I have completely forgotten about Thane until he is pushing into my ass, making my entire body tense up. “Let me in, Ayla. Relax,” he groans.
They start in on an alternating pattern as they fuck me, and I quickly lose all the energy left in my body. I lie across Reid’s chest as they fuck me hard and deep. When they start to come, they both moan my name. By the time they pull out of me, I am mostly unconscious.
One of them scoops me into their arms, but I don’t know which one. I am too exhausted to open my eyes, so I will figure that out later. I trust they will take care of me, so I relax.
When I am lying on a bed, I open my eyes only to not recognize where I am. I gasp and sit up fast, only for Thane and Reid to pull me back down to lie on the bed.
“You’re okay. Just relax,” Thane says softly. “We are in my bed.”
“I passed out,” I sigh. “Someone picked me up, and that was it.”
“Yep, you didn’t even make it to the elevator,” Thane remarks. “We need to talk for a second.”
“Am I in trouble?” I ask.
“No,” he says with a smile. “Roll and talk to Reid.”
I give him a confused look, but roll to face Reid. “Is everything okay?” I ask worriedly.
“I love you,” he says bluntly. He cups my cheek when I just stare at him.
“I don’t know when it happened. It’s not professional, but it’s true.
You got upset because you felt like we were only seeing you for your trauma, but Ayla…
You are everything. The best part of my day turns into the worst when I have to walk away from you.
You're all I think about, and I am ready to face whatever the consequences of that are. It’s not fair for me to preach to you to communicate and focus on what you want in life when I don’t do the same.
Truthfully, I had a horrific childhood, and my college years were awful, too.
I tried to kill myself in college, but Thane saved me. ”
“How does that change things?” I ask. “I don’t know what to say.”
“Ayla, you don’t have to say anything,” Reid tells me. “I can reassign you to Tabitha, but…”
“No!” I object. “Why are you trying to get rid of me?”
“I’m not, but I want what’s best for you, sweetheart,” he says. “If my feelings make you uncomfortable…”
I lean forward and kiss him hard, making him relax and sigh into my lips. “You and Thane are the best things that came into my life,” I say. “I just don’t want to lose either of you because you both make me feel safe.”
“I will stay close to you for as long as you want,” he tells me softly. “But we have to do this right. I don’t want to create a codependency.”
“I’ve been controlled my entire life, and I grew comfortable with it a long time ago,” I say. “There’s nothing wrong with letting someone I trust have control. I want to give that control to both of you.”
“There is a difference between power exchange and dependency,” Reid tells me. “We will make sure you have all the tools you need to be independent. If you choose to let us maintain control going forward, you still have those skills. I never want you to feel trapped.”
“Okay,” I say with a sweet smile.
“Let’s relax for a while, and then we can eat dinner,” Thane says, kissing my temple.
