This will be my last excerpt from this book, as it's finished and I really don't want to give too much away. If you enjoy it, please be on the look out for the boxed set sometime in late December. It's truly a great deal, with myself and four AMAZINGLY talented, best-selling authors all taking part. :D
"What's
your poison?" Trev moved aside once they had reached the bar, allowing her
to speak directly to the bartender.
"Wait,"
the girl said, "hold your arm under this."
"What's
that?" Silver asked, as a scanner was run over her wrist.
"She's
checking to make sure you haven't had any drinks yet today. Can't have you
taking leave of your senses." Reaching out, he took a lock of her hair and
twirled it casually. "Very pretty."
"Thank
you. Um. Can I have a glass of red, please? Merlot? Or maybe a Pinot if you
have it?" Silver stammered to the girl behind the bar, trying to ignore
the little jolts of electricity his touch was shooting directly to her scalp.
"Which do
you prefer? We have both."
"Pinot,
please."
The glass, when
it arrived, was disappointingly small. "That's it?"
"You
shoulda ordered something stronger," he said with a grin.
"Like?"
"A Long Island
iced tea. Lots of bang for your buck there, in every sense of the word."
"This is
fine, thank you." Silver let the girl stamp her arm and took a deep,
grateful swallow, wondering how the hell she was meant to get through the
evening sober.
"Well they
wouldn't want you barfing up on stage," Trev said, as though he could read
her mind.
She chuckled. "Barfing.
So American."
"Why? What
do you call it?"
"We have
lots of words for it, but barfing isn't one of them. Puking is probably one of
the most common expressions." Well
isn't this a sexy conversation, she thought ruefully. It was a moment
before she realised that he was staring at her. "What?"
"You have
such an adorable accent," he said slowly, "I was just wondering what
you sound like when you're begging to be allowed to come."
Silver nearly
dropped her precious wine. Breathe.
Fucking breathe!
"Do you
have a name?"
"S-silver."
"Pretty.
Like your hair," he mused, once again reaching out to gently tug one of
the strands closest to her breast.
"And you?"
she croaked, desperately trying to regain some self-control. "I never
caught your name."
"You can
call me whatever you like, baby. Trevor, Sir, Master, Daddy," he shrugged.
"Shoot, you could probably call me Dickwad and it would sound hot in that
accent."
"Shall we
try it?"
"Feel
free." His eyes narrowed suddenly and her heart dropped into her stomach. "But
there would be consequences if you did."
He's like a predator, she decided, and I'm the prey.
This is how a zebra feels when it realises a lion has just spotted it. Only I
very much doubt that the zebra would be creaming itself at the same time. "Consequences?"
She was careful to keep her voice as casual as possible, desperate not to bely
her arousal.
He gestured
around him. "We're in a BDSM club, sweetheart. You're a little subbie
girl, I'm a sadist and a Dominant. What do you think the consequences would be
if you insulted me?"
She forced
herself to focus on the drink in her hand rather than the pulse beating
directly between her thighs. "A spanking, I suppose," she muttered.
"Wrong."
He chuckled before leaning in to whisper, his breath warming her ear. "Only
good girls get spanked."
I just want to say I am not very happy at the moment. This is your last snippet from this book and you leave us hanging like this?
ReplyDelete"Only good girls get spanked." ? What do bad girls get?
Oh this simply isn't fair! I love a good sadist Dom and I must know what he's thinking.
Come on, Tabitha. One more snippet next week? Please?
yum!
ReplyDelete"Only good girls get spanked." I hear this a lot from my husband. ;) Loved the scene.
