R Excerpt:
A
door slammed and her eyes popped open. “Oh my God.”
Zak
quickly pulled out, resting his forehead on her back as if he needed a moment
to gain his bearings. “What the hell is he doing here?” His voice was
dangerously low.
Kara
shuddered. Her ragged breath came out in spurts.
How
much had they heard? Worse still, how long had they stood there and watched her
in the throes of pleasure, in the clutches of passion?
Carly
turned away. Kemper looked at her dead on.
Zak
scurried to his feet. “Don’t you believe in knocking?”
“Kara?”
The color washed out of Carly’s face when she turned to the room once more.
“What were you thinking?”
A
hoarse cry fell from Kara’s chest. “What the hell are you two doing here?”
“I
should ask you the same thing,” Kemper said.
“As
if you have a right!” Kara’s blazing fury shook through her body. To make
matters worse she was still tied and bound, slumped in a doggie-style position
on the contraption Kemper had sent her as a gift.
All
things considered, it probably wasn’t the best time to let him know how much
she appreciated his thoughtfulness, even though she was tempted.
Zak
stood in front of her with his hands blocking his cock. “Can you give us a
minute?”
“What
the hell are you doing to my girlfriend?” Kemper stalked him then.
Kara
tried to wiggle one way or another in an effort to free herself. “Why aren’t
you on your honeymoon?”
“Psht!”
Carly exclaimed, though she didn’t bother with a true reply.
Kemper
clenched his fists and glared at Zak. “If I were you, buddy, I’d get lost.”
“I’d
listen to him,” Carly said.
Kara
grabbed an opportunity to glare at her best friend. “Just who are you to tell
us what to do?”
“The
friend who loves you,” Carly assured her. “I’m concerned about you, Kara.
Clearly, you aren’t thinking straight.”
“I’ve
never been so sure and confident in my life,” she snapped, turning her
attention to Zak. “Don’t go, Sir.”
“What?”
Carly and Kemper chimed in together.
“I’m
not going anywhere, baby,” Zak said, grabbing his towel and wrapping it around
his waist before pulling a sheet off the bed and covering Kara’s body. Dipping
his hands under the coverlet, he blindly fumbled with the shackles in an effort
to free her. “The two of you should wait downstairs. We weren’t expecting
company at four-thirty in the morning.”
“We?”
Kemper pushed by Zak and glared at Kara. “And what is this Sir shit?”
Kara
glared at Carly and thinned her lips, silently pleading with her friend to take
Kemper and go. Instead of aiding her, Carly asked, “What in the hell is that
doohickey you’re wearing?”
Kemper
bit out, “I sent her all these things so she would get used to the idea of
Domination and submission!”
Carly
scowled. “You?” She shoved her balled fists against her waist. “You didn’t get
very much bang for your buck now did ya?” She glanced around the
room. “How’d all this work out for you, babe?
Hmm?”
Kemper’s
face turned blood red. “I think she’s got the hang of it.”
“Considering
I don’t receive gifts like these and I’m the one who loves the lifestyle, maybe
you should ask yourself if you gave the right presents to the right woman. If
I’d been in a contraption like that, you can bet your sweet ass you would’ve
been the one coming in from behind!” Carly threw up her arms and stormed out of
the room.
Kemper
ignored Carly and stood over Kara, acting as if he were taking in the whole
scene. “Have you been seeing one another long?”
“No.”
Zak supplied the answer.
“I
didn’t ask you!” Kemper never looked away from Kara.
“Obviously
not,” Kara bit out. “The package just arrived today.”
“Be a
gentleman and wait downstairs for us,” Zak said.
“I am
not talking to you!” Kemper yelled, his muscles bulging around his short
sleeves. He acted as if he were seconds away from taking that first swing.
Kemper
had always been slow to anger, but when that ugly beast rose to the fore, he
went berserk. She didn’t want to witness a fight. She just wanted Kemper and
Carly to go.
“Please
wait downstairs.” Kara couldn’t believe this was happening. “Please.”
“Why
would you do this?” Kemper dragged his hand from forehead to chin. The slow act
brought on a noticeable transformation. A furious expression replaced the face
of betrayal and confusion.
Zak
placed his hand on his shoulder. “You heard the lady. She wants you to wait—”
“Get
your hands off me!” Kemper screamed, shrugging away from him. “You don’t want
to go up against me, buddy!”
“She
wants you to wait downstairs and you can do that now or I can call the police.
Take your pick.”
Kemper
laughed and another demeanor emerged, one Kara hadn’t seen in the past. He
glared at her like he saw straight through her. “He doesn’t know. Does he?”
“Know
what exactly?” Zak knelt next to her again and finished unbuckling the
restraints. He helped her to her feet. “What don’t I know?”
Kara
met Zak’s curious gaze, but she couldn’t speak. She knew what Kemper wanted her
to tell him, but she couldn’t bring herself to say the words. If she voiced
them then, she would feel like such a kept woman.
She
studied Kemper and gauged his behavior. That was precisely what he wanted her
to feel like in that very moment—a kept woman, somebody’s whore, and his little
puppet.
Slow
to regain her balance, she grabbed the bedpost and held the white linen sheet
to her chest. Her bottom was sore with the recent reminder of what she’d done
and with whom.
Both
men stood side by side. She couldn’t hide from either of them. She couldn’t
run, because where would she go? Carly returned to the room with her arms
crossed. She was equally pissed, but Kara couldn’t figure out why.
At
the moment, Kara didn’t care. Carly had known she was infatuated with her
neighbor. Hadn’t she suspected something like this would eventually happen?
“She
won’t tell you, so I will,” Kemper said, stomping across the room to the
walk-in closet. Swinging the door wide, he shook his finger inside. “Those
clothes are my clothes. This is my bedroom. This is my condo.” He swung around
and waved his finger in Kara’s direction. “And that woman—regardless of what
happened here—is my fucking woman!”
