Under Her Thumb, page 18
She doesn’t reassure him. Instead she strokes his cock, palming the head until he moans, and says only: “Shiver for me.”
Walking out of the dungeon, her mind flashes back to the fetish ball where they met. He had been the most beautiful boy in the room, but it was the passion and intelligence she noticed in his eyes as he watched her. She walked into a side room, knowing he’d follow. “On your knees,” she said. He obeyed without a word. “Good. Now show me your cock.” He unzipped his pants and let it spring free, hard and smooth and unmistakably hers. Then he shook back his blond hair and looked up with a desire that was both a challenge and an offer. She knew then that he was submissive, yes, but not servile. This boy was spirited. This was the slave she’d been waiting for.
Carima returns to the salon, leaving the dungeon doors open both to keep an eye on Liam and make a spectacle of him. But the salon has gone dull for her. The ladyfingers and fruit tarts seem silly and one of the slaves is serving the wine on ice. Anne’s slave Marshall is so timid that his hands shake and the new slave Alejandro is so excited that he disappears into the bathroom for a suspiciously long time.
The dommes glance at each other. It’s the first one. They’ll improve, their eyes say. Carima agrees, but Liam’s mishap has ruined the evening for her. She was so looking forward to showing him off tonight, from his gorgeous physique to his endearing manners. Instead he’s fumbled like the fledgling she had hoped he no longer was.
Colton, ever brazen, brings her more wine. “I’ll be everything your boy isn’t,” he mutters under his breath. Unbelievable. She’s half-tempted to collar this kid and have him muck out her stable next weekend.
Night falls quickly. When the conversation winds down, Carima judges Liam has spent enough time in the dungeon. Beckoning the other dommes, she leads everyone into the adjoining room. The novice slaves gawk at the spanking bench, cage and swing, and the long row of paddles and canes. But the dommes gaze only at the naked spectacle of Liam blindfolded and chained on the cross. He looks so sexy in captivity, all hard muscles and stoic expression, his hair falling over his cheekbones. The chains have long since warmed and his cock has gone hard, as it always does in bondage. Lightly she reaches forward and trails her fingernails up his thick shaft. Immediately his stomach retracts and his thigh muscles go tight.
“Gorgeous,” someone murmurs.
“Look at those abs,” Anne says admiringly. “Some boys are just meant to be chained.”
A loud scoff comes from across the room.
All of the dommes turn. Colton’s smirk quickly vanishes and he looks submissively down at the floor. But it’s too late. All of them have heard him express his contempt for Liam.
“Colton!” Stephanie scolds. “How rude. Mind your manners.”
Mind your manners? How insipid, Carima thinks. “Colton, you’ve been defiant all evening, whispering to me when you should be serving and generally exhibiting an unacceptable insolence,” she says. “You’re setting a terrible example for the other boys.”
“I’m sorry, Ma’am,” Colton says in an abashed voice that doesn’t fool her.
“Good. Then you will be disciplined now, or not invited back.”
Colton’s head jerks up with a startled expression.
Carima snaps her fingers. “Cross the room to the tool bench on your knees,” she commands. “Hands locked on the back of your neck. Then bring me the paddle, still on your knees.”
Stiffly he obeys. Watching him retrieve the paddle, she enjoys thinking of the rug burns he’ll sport on those too-soft knees tomorrow. When he’s returned to her, she pulls off Liam’s blindfold and releases him from the cross, helping him down. He looks dazed and shaky.
“My arm is tired,” she says casually, placing the paddle in his hand. “I think it will be much more humbling for Colton if you spank him, Liam.”
Colton’s dark eyes fill with outrage. Liam just looks stunned.
“Go on, do as I say,” she orders. “Colton, bend over and grip the cross. And Liam, give it to him good.”
Slowly, sullenly, Colton bends over to hold the cross and extend his bottom. His perfect ass is pale and unblemished by any earlier spankings, if indeed he’s ever had one.
“Liam, give him twenty-five. Colton, you will count each one.”
Liam shakes the lingering tension from his arms, then steps behind Colton’s clenched white cheeks. The dungeon is silent. Every domme and every slave is riveted on the scene.
Liam lets loose with the first smack. Colton jumps a little. “One,” he says through gritted teeth.
Liam delivers another blow on the other cheek. Colton almost straightens in protest before catching himself. “Two.”
The rise and fall of the paddle goes on, punctuated by Colton’s surly recitations. No one moves. Colton stares defiantly forward at first, but Liam knows how to draw it out, sensitizing his skin and changing the rhythm so he can never really adjust. By the tenth blow, the indignation in Colton’s eyes is transforming into submission, until he’s groaning with what sounds like as much lust as pain. Carima knows this will become one of her most arousing memories, watching her beautiful blond slaveboy spank an equally beautiful dark-haired slave.
Colton’s long cock is stiff and dark with engorged blood. When at last he gasps, “Twenty-five,” his arrogance is gone.
“Well. So you do respond to discipline.” Carima takes the paddle from Liam. Colton’s face is burning red with mortification but he can’t hide his massive erection. “You might make a good slave yet.”
“Thank you, Ma’am,” he mutters and slinks away.
A heavy silence falls upon the room. At that moment, all of them seem to sense their first femdom salon is over. The slaves hastily clean up as the women finish their wine.
“The next one will be at my house,” Anne says as they walk outside. “Maybe by the pool if it’s warm enough.”
“Sounds great,” Carima agrees. She’s pleased to have hosted the first. All told, it didn’t go too badly; certainly everyone got a mouthwatering show.
The house is oddly quiet when she comes in. She snaps off the foyer lights and enters the living room to find Liam kneeling on the carpet, naked and hard, with his wrists cuffed before him and his mouth taped shut with a note that reads, USE ME.
He looks up at her with burning eyes.
“Oh, my aching god,” she says. “You really do know just how to please me.”
She walks around him in a circle, trailing her fingertips over his lateral muscles and caressing his silky hair.
“You don’t ever need to be jealous of another sub,” she says. “You’re mine. You, and only you, belong to me.”
She takes the tape off his mouth and rakes her nails over his lips, just enough to make his blood rise, before kissing him so passionately it’s as if she wants to drown in him.
The windows are still open to the spring night. She lays him down on the carpet, deliberately positioning him so the damp breeze washes over one side of his naked skin while the heat of the flames beats on the other. He doesn’t take his eyes from her as she slips out of her dress, bra and panties.
Liam tilts his head back in a clear invitation for her to sit on his face. Instead she grips his cock, twisting her hand around the swollen head until he moans. She knows exactly how to play him, how to make him shudder and scream and come like he’s on fire. Tonight, though, she is thirsty for the taste of him and swallows his cock deep into her mouth. A desperate little whimper comes out of him as she tongues and sucks him, his hips dancing on the floor. The tangy-sweet taste of him tempts her to keep sucking, but the liquid fire building in her pussy urges her onward. She licks the slit of his cock and withdraws, laughing as he twists impatiently against his cuffs in frustration.
Now she does what she’s wanted to ever since she watched him spank Colton. Taking his hard dick in hand, she straddles him and leans over to dangle her breasts in his face. Liam eagerly sucks her nipples into his mouth, but she allows herself the sensation of his tongue, so warm against the cool night air, for only a few moments before pulling away. He groans again and she slowly rubs her pussy against him. Biting her lip, she strokes the head of his cock up and down her wetness, tracing his crown over her soft folds until he groans.
“Please,” Liam begs. She dips two fingers into her pussy then feeds them into his eager mouth as a reminder that he needs permission before speaking.
She moves back onto his shaft until she engulfs him completely. There it is, that blissful feeling of utter control: her beautiful boy bound and helpless with his cock captured inside her.
A strangled noise of desire escapes him. Carima twists and moves on him, gripping him tightly with her muscles. Liam thrusts up at her from the carpet, trying to drive inside her. But she rides him at her will, fucking him faster and deeper until a fiery prickle of heat fills her nipples. They’re thrusting in tandem now, in an urgent, primal rhythm she never wants to end. An intoxicating bliss fills her limbs like liquid fire. She moves his cuffed wrists between her legs and grinds her clit against his fingers, and as Liam groans and writhes beneath her, she comes in wet, euphoric shudders on his cock. A raw, searing cry escapes him and he erupts inside her, hips pumping out every throe of his orgasm.
Slowly Carima climbs off his hips. Her body feels as weightless and brilliant as fire itself. Only as she uncuffs him does she become aware of her own trembling.
She looks at him in the firelight, her young slave gleaming with sweat. “Are you mine?” she asks, tracing his bottom lip. “Tell me you belong to me.”
“I’m yours.” His green eyes gaze at her as if bewitched. “I’m yours completely.”
She traces her nails down his thighs, then up to his throat, savoring the jump of his pulse. Another breeze comes through the window screen to race across her flushed skin, making her shiver.
“If you didn’t already know, I belong to you too,” she says at last.
Liam wraps his arms around her and holds her tightly as they bask in the heat of the flames.
