“What the hell are you doing here? Trying to break down my damn door or something?” she grits out between clenched teeth.

My eyes travel up her bare legs, up to her… panties. A pair of black lace panties. My gaze continues its path. The singlet she’s wearing is skin tight, her nipples pebbling under the fabric. My pupils dilate.

What the hell is she doing opening the door dressed like this? I look behind me to make sure I’m the only one in the hall and that the whole rest of the floor isn’t getting a glimpse of her… everything. My hand lands in the middle of her chest and I gently push her backwards as I enter her apartment and close the door behind us.

“You shouldn’t be answering the door dressed like that,” I tell her.

“You shouldn’t be banging on my door either,” she says.

There’s a loud thud as something drops to the floor. Glancing down, I watch a baseball bat roll away. “Were you going to hit me over the head with that thing?” I ask her.

“You’d deserve it if I did,” she huffs, pivots on her heel, and walks down a small hallway.

Turning around, I make sure the front door is locked before I follow her. There are only two doors in the hallway. Poking my head in the first one, I find a very small bathroom, so I enter the second room. Dani is pulling the covers back on her bed. I watch as she sits down and pulls them up over her. She picks up a tablet from the bedside table, followed by a very full glass of white wine.

“Thirsty?” I ask her from my position at the doorway.

“Is there a reason you’re here, Alistair?” she asks in a bored tone.

I walk over to her, pluck the glass of wine out of her hands, and place it on the bedside table. I then take the tablet and put it beside the glass. “I’m here because I woke up alone. Again,” I tell her, sitting on the edge of the bed.

“You’re a big boy. I’m sure you’ve been waking up alone for a long time now,” she sasses.

I raise my eyebrows at her. “I have, but all of a sudden, I don’t want to anymore,” I admit, pulling the covers back. “I want to wake up next to you.” My hand slides up her thigh. “Next to this.” I cup her pussy.

“I had things to do,” she says.

“I had things to do too, and I couldn’t do those things because the key ingredient to them wasn’t there when I woke up,” I tell her.

“Okay.”

I stand and remove my shirt. Undoing my belt, I pull it through the loops of my pants. “You know, it’s really not okay. I’m not used to being left wanting, Dani. And you, little girl, always leave me wanting more. I don’t know what it is about you, but whatever it is, I need it. I need you,” I tell her. I toe my shoes off, my belt hanging from one hand. “On your knees. Turn around and put your hands around your back.”

Dani’s eyes open wide in shock. “What?”

“Dani, knees now!” I say, my tone harsher.

She blinks and then scrambles up to her knees. She turns her back to me like I instructed.

“Hands behind you. Clasp them together.”

“Yes, sir,” she says, following the command.

“See? I knew you could be such a good girl, Dani. You can follow instructions. It makes me want to reward you for being so good.” My fingers scoop under the lose strands of her hair and push it over one shoulder.

“Then you should reward me, sir.”

“That’s the problem, little girl. I’ve been giving you too many rewards and not enough punishments. You seem to think you can make your own rules. That’s not how this works.” My lips graze the side of her neck.

“Mmmm, I don’t like punishments. Sir,” she says, tilting her head to the side.

“They’re not meant for liking,” I tell her.

Wrapping the belt around her hands, I thread the strap through the buckle and pull tight. I push her forward until her shoulders hit the mattress. Her ass up in the air. Without warning, I bring my palm down on her right cheek. The sound of skin slapping skin echoes in the room.

“Ow, that hurt,” Dani cries out.

“It’s meant to. You know what else hurt?” I ask while doing the same to her left cheek.
