My phone kept up its relentless chimes of likes, comments, and tags on the nightstand, all of it slowly dragging me toward consciousness.

“Ugh,” I grumbled at the light streaming in through the blinds, surprised when a headache didn’t immediately start stabbing me behind the eyes like it usually would.

My hand rose out of the blankets, going toward the nightstand, when something sitting there had me stopping.

A bottle of electrolyte water.

The light blue one.

Arguably, the best flavor.

But I knew for damn sure I hadn’t put it there. I didn’t even have it in the penthouse.

That meant that…

Julian.

I shot up in bed as the memories flashed across my mind.

The club.

The fucking with my guard.

Then us coming home… and him punishing me for it.

Humiliation had my cheeks flaming as I yanked my covers up to cover up my nakedness.

I’d… I’dcrawledto the man.

I’d climbed on his lap and told him I deserved to be spanked.

I’d fingered myself because he told me to.

I’d… I’d sucked him off for the same reason.

My hands rose to my face as I let out a pained animal sound.

That wasn’t quite right.

He hadn’t exactly told me to suck his cock.

I’d done that.

Happily.

Greedily.

Even the memory of that had my pussy throbbing again.

What the hell was wrong with me?

How was I going to face the man again?

I climbed out of bed, walking to the bathroom, and looking at myself in the mirror.

My ass was still pink and warm to the touch.

That humiliation flared through me once again, and I watched the strange emotions play across my face.
