“Perfectly safe”
Dmitri had known he’d been her safety net; it was scary for a submissive to enter such ownership, in which she’d lose her voice and choices Katherine had never refused his visits, and she’d depended on him to help if she needed a way out Now Dmitri ended that last strand of dependence Presley deserved all of D less “Is Martin treating you fairly?”
She smiled softly “Of course, Dmitri”
He paused, regarded her, and asked one final question “Are you getting what you need from him?”
Tears filled her eyes “He gives me more”
Dmitri understood her show of emotion While they hadn’t been lovers in years, the bond between a Dom and a foroodbye “Be well, Katherine”
Each second see Presley watched Steven finally lean away from her and start to close the truck’s door The world around her had slowed Yet her thoughts raced Thoughts of her fa out about her BDSM lifestyle held heavy on her mind
The old Presley would’ve had her seat belt on and listened to him in a second flat She would’ve not only feared his threat but also been so asha out about her kinky sex that she would’ve overlooked what she wanted
She wasn’t that wo and did nothing, or the woman who allowed aHer new lifestyle wasn’t wrong, as he suggested It was right, because it hat she needed
Why was she allowing Steven to threaten her? Why did she care if they fought at her office? Hadn’t she already decided to find a new job? Besides, he was the asshole in this equation Her boss and fellow employees would have her back
More so, why did she think her parents would believe him? First, they knew Steven had cheated on her Second, since she’d always been a good girl, her parents would never believe such a tale of a dark and sensual lifestyle
Now a slow but delicious strength slid through her veins, and just as Steven was about to close her door, she grabbed the handle and stopped hi, Steven” She atterabbed her shoulder and pinned her to the seat Ripping herself away frolare that she hoped portrayed all of her hatred for hiive a shit about ht with your cock and fucked another woman”
Steven’s eyes widened, and his face went beet red “You say cock? Is that a word a lady uses? See, look what this has done to you You’ve been corrupted No wonder you wouldn’t call me back; you’re seriously mentally sick Do you not see the person you’ve become?”
Perhaps the conversation was long overdue Steven had crossed a bad line Leaning forward, she got up in his face and poured all of her hatred for him, for what he’d done to her, for the pain he’d caused “You never saw s to you You were lucky to have me I picked up ave you eight years of my life”
His lips parted, and the vein on his head enlarged, but she wasn’t nearly done “You’re a sad, pathetic excuse for a man, do you know that? Your affair wasn’t about your need for more, or whatever stupid reason you told me, it’s because you have an e to do with me”
