Page 7 of A Halloween Kind of Night

I didn’t see the problem with that threat until that eyebrow went up again. “You’ll miss entirely too much of the room that way, especially if I have you facing the wall.”

Fuck.

“I’ll pay attention…Sir?” I still wasn’t sure on that part, but he nodded without looking stressed or worried. “Sir. I’ll be a good pup.”

Oh, that was kind of weird but not bad weird.

I tried to hide it so I wouldn’t give Boone any more to think about than I already had, but he chuckled. “Your shivers and the way you keep tugging at your costume already made it clear how much you like that. So don’t think you’re fooling anyone.”

Shoot.

“I…I didn’t know how much I’d like it.” Dropping my voice soft as I stepped closer, I didn’t let myself look at anyone yet. “I was curious.”

Very curious.

“You get yourself into the most interesting predicaments.” Boone cocked his head, studying me again. “Probably because you are in desperate need of a Dom.”

Um, yeah, I couldn’t argue with that take on the situation…especially with everything I’d done…well, everything that wasn’t Skyler’s fault.

“This is your only warning that things are going to change.” His expression didn’t change but my heart started going a thousand miles an hour. “I’m going to stop telling myself not to boss you around for starters.”

Yay.

Oh, probably not the right response yet.

“Yes, Sir. We’ll…we’ll talk.” Especially about the whole orgasms and rules thing. “I’ll remember the safewords and I’ll be a good pup.”

I’d probably end up being a pain-in-the-ass sub, but I was pretty sure I could be a good pup.

“We’ll see about that last part.” His doubtful expression made me want to pout, but my brain kept going back to that whole “he’ll make me orgasm” part.

So I didn’t pout.

Just in case.

“Alright, walk close to me.” Possession filled his gaze as it raked down my body. “And remember, you’remypup. No flirting with anyone else.”

Wow.

“Yes, Sir.” I’d always known he was hot. We’d never actually dated but it’d been hard to miss how sexy he was, but damn, adding in kind of frustrated and possibly aroused and he jumped to a whole new level.

Nodding again, Boone turned and studied the room. It gave me permission to finally look too and I was amazed that we weren’t the center of attention. Sure, a few people were watching us curiously but most people were lost in their own world.

I probably should’ve given them a bit more privacy but it was impossible. They were all…they were all Doms and subs and pups and littles and so many of them were nearly naked.

Halloween was awesome but I’d never seen so many fun naked-ish costumes.

For a moment it made me wish that I’d talked Boone into something more erotic for his costume, but that thought vanished as soon as it popped into my head. He was my Handler.There was nothing sexier than that and I wasn’t sure I wanted anyone else to see him even shirtless.

Now me, I’d get naked if he let me, but I’d just never had the opportunity to do anything like that. My life had always been one stupid relationship or bad decision after another, and unfortunately, none of them had ever led me to BDSM or naked things.

More bad decisions should really end up with people getting naked.

Oh, cookies.

Being a pup was magic, all it took was a whine and he paused to get me snacks. I even got pets and a tug on my leash when I stayed close and wasn’t a pain in the ass. “Good pup.”

Thinking wasn’t my strong suit most of the time, but I really wasn’t processing much when I inched closer and pressed against his side so I could rub my face against his shoulder. It should’ve felt weird once I realized what I was doing, but Boone just leaned his head over and nuzzled against me as he put another cookie on the plate. “Good cuddles, pup.”
