Prologue

Dree

The first strike ignites h my skin, burrows into my flesh and explodes in my head

That rush

I’m addicted

He trails his fingers downfor ers that tease a sound fro people to another place Not this place, though This place is all mine He made it for me

“Babygirl,” ruaze to hisviolet “You deserved that”

I nod, whi for the next slap There are rules, you see He hurts et down on rovel with my tears With my sobs With the red marks on my flesh

Scores of his affection Tattoos of his adoration I wish I could keep them forever as reminders that, for a while at least, he’s able to put ether

He trails his fingers lower and circles the tip of one budded nipple My head tips back and my arms burn as the rope bites into es to keep my balance He delves down over ainst h me as he delves deeper and circles my clit slowly

Arched against the rope, I pant my need for him

He grips a fistful of er againstinto his eyes

He pulls his finger out and runs it downwetness in its wake, and his lips curve into a smile I’m lost in the anticipation of what comes next

“Beg for mercy”

“Please,” I breathe “Please don’t stop”

I love to hurt even more than I love to come

“Please, who?”

“Please, Daddy”
