It was official. The man wasn’t human. “I’d suggest using the bathroom now.” She did, and then when she returned to the room he was waiting for her, the paddle in his hand. He smacked it against his palm, giving her a gaze filled with molten lust. “Come over here.” She couldn’t have disobeyed if she’d wanted to. When she stood in front of him, he smiled, and she shivered again. There was something so smoldering yet deadly in those ice blue eyes, and in the way his lips curled up when he smiled or grinned. The emotion on his face took on a life of its own. “We’re going to do things a bit differently this time. For now, I want you over my knee, and I’m going to paddle you with this until you literally can’t take one more swat.” She opened her mouth, but nothing came out. The excitement racing through her was crazy. “You said anything…” “Yes. Yes, I did.” His eyes blazed with lust and need. “Then do you agree to let me paddle you until it hurts? I mean real pain?”
