Søren propped his head on his hand and stretched languidly across his white sheets She wasn’t going to look at hiht back to him

“In a hurry, little one?”

“To leave you? No To not be late for Mass and earn yet another beating this week? Yes” Søren caressed the back of her calf and Nora turned back to stare daggers at hi to make me late…sir?”

Sighing, Søren pulled his hand away from her It wasn’t fair The rectory stood all of twoto worry about what outfit to wear, Søren could get ready in ten minutes

“A vicious accusation, Eleanor Of course I would never try topeople in the church after all”

Snorting a laugh, Nora started picking up her clothes She pulled her shirt off the top of the bedpost she been tied to last night while Søren had flogged her senseless Her skirt lay in a crumpled heap on the floor where it had landed after Søren unzipped it and let it fall before bending her over his bed and strapping her ankles to a spreader bar Somewhere under his bed she found her bra, and her underas at home in a drawer She rarely bothered with underwear around Søren—counterproductive really

“A role model? Nora Sutherlin—erotica writer, ex-dominatrix It’s a pleasure to meet you” She held out her hand to shake Søren only looked at it and raised his eyebrow at her

“You’re a role model to Michael He adores you”

“But Michael’s one of us, sir” She sift to her last year: the virginity of possibly the prettiest teenage boy in the knoorld Pretty, kinky and unfortunately deeply troubled “Of course he’s got a soft spot for me Or a wet spot Anyway, none of those vanilla twerps at church need to look up to me”

Nora shoved her feet into her shoes as Søren got out of bed Her heart pounded at the sight of all six feet four inches of his perfectly sculpted, unasha him noould ever believe Søren was forty-seven years old And no one seeing the as he beat her and fked her repeatedly in a variety of delightfully degrading positions would have dreamed he was one of the land

“You give the conventional or condescending”

“You’re trying to say the kids think I’m cool, aren’t you?”

“My sentiments exactly”

She turned her face up to hioodbye kiss Instead he bent down and kissed her long and slow…deeply, possessively No one had ever kissed her the way Søren did, as though he was inside her body even when he was only inside her , Søren finally pulled back

“Eleanor, you really should stop dawdling” His steel-gray eyes glinted wickedly

Nora glared at hilared at her This “no swearing on Sundays” thing was going to kill her But she would do it coh water “Bastion of evil intentions You just stole five hty”

“Young lady, if you don’t stop using the Lord’s na into our relationship Are you really co that I kissed you?”
