“I know you think you can waltz in here and do whatever you like,” I growl as I give her another spank. “I know you think that contract protects you.” Spank. “But you’re forgetting one thing.”

Janie doesn’t answer. All I hear are her panted breaths. All I can smell is the hot, wet musk of her arousal.

I give her ponytail a tug, and she arches upward with a cry.

“Answer me.”

“What?” Janie pants. Her eyes hang half-closed, lidded with desire.

So this is the heat that Soren warned me about. This is the optimal window for breeding, and I’m going to fill her up as many times as it takes until she’s round with my child.

“What you’re forgetting,” I start, letting up on the ponytail so her head droops lower. Lucky for me, the change in her center of gravity also means her ass lifts further toward my hand. “Is that while you’re on this planet, while you’re under this contract, you’re mine.” I rain another slap on her ass and when she wails this time, it’s no longer laced with pain.

It’s almost…a moan? Did I really hear that right?

I massage the fleshy globes, one and then the other. She’s practically bucking up into my hand, which turns me on far more than it should.

This was supposed to be her punishment. So why does it feel like the tables have turned?

Seeing her here like this, quaking and moaning at something that, by all accounts, shouldn’t have been enjoyable, lights me up with a more feral passion than I’ve ever felt.

I remember how confused, but how aroused, I was when she talked back to me the first time. None of the Aesir women wanted to try their luck with such a high-ranking official. They knew our ways and customs too well to break them.

But Janie…she’s different. She doesn’t know any better, and while it’s maddening on the best of days, it’s also something else.

Really fucking sexy.

It’s taking all I have not to forget the spanking entirely, throw her over on the bed and plunge my cock in her wet heat as deep as it will go. I’ve trained far harder than this. Have faced far more dastardly enemies, leaving my life and the lives of my people on the line.

So why was this more of a challenge than all of them?

I’ve only been spanking over her skirt until now, but I can’t wait any longer. I need to know what’s underneath. With a grunt, I push her skirt up and over her waist, sucking in a breath when I find she’s not wearing any panties.

Damn, this girl is going to be the end of me.

It’s no wonder now why she was leaking slick everywhere. No wonder why I could smell her so strongly. Why her need wrapped around me like chains, threatening to squeeze the very life from my lungs.

“You did this on purpose,” I growl. I pull on her ponytail till her head tilts up and toward me. “Didn’t you?”

Her whole face is red, all the way up to her ears. She makes a little whimpering sound, but she doesn’t meet my eyes.

“Didn’t you?”

Her throat bobs for a moment. “Yes,” she whispers at last. “I just…wanted to be ready.” Each word falls off her tongue with unquenchable shame and an equal amount of arousal. “Lara told me I’d get really horny, but I never realized…”

I let out a throaty chuckle. From here I can see her smooth bare ass. Her lower lips and upper thighs, shiny with slick. God, what I wouldn’t do to drive into her right now. “Your body betrays you,” I say with a grin. “You feel what you’re doing to me?”

I lift my hips ever so slightly, just so she can feel the hard ridge of my cock pressing up against her. Janie gasps and it turns into a whine. “Yes,” she breathes.

“I need to tell you something, and I need you to listen.” I massage her ass, rubbing circles on the reddened flesh.

She nods.

“You will never question my authority as alpha again. Do you understand me?”

A few panted breaths, but finally, she hangs her head and relents. “Yes.”

“Now I’m going to spank you five times. I want you to count each spank, and tell me who you belong to.”
