Oh indeed. Cade had been closed off even before he’d joined my harem. It was smart for Dani to make sure her friend went into the relationship with her eyes wide open.

Cade needed a good woman to break through his walls. I hoped she was the one.

“He’ll be great for your first Dom. He’s lucky he was standing by the door when we came in.” Dani leaned across the counter and ran a hand over her hair.

“Don’t be silly.”

It would be very interesting to see how this relationship developed.

“No, really. I’ve seen how everyone’s been looking at you all night. Especially during that Shibari scene. Ooh, baby, you were hot, and Cade was practically pissing a circle around you to let everyone know you were his.”

“I am not his. We just met.”

Maybe she wanted to be his though.

“Ness, he has soooooo staked his claim on you, and trust me honey, you are going to have one kick ass time with him.”

“But he wants to, uh, dominate me.”

Yes, I wanted to scream. He does, and you’ll love it if you let yourself. I stayed quiet. Dani was doing a good job calming Ness’s fears.

Dani turned and propped herself against the counter. She looked right at Ness and said, “You want him to do it too.”

She shook her head. “But I’m not exactly the submissive type. I’m always in charge at work. I hold more philanthropy board positions than I know what to do with, and you know what kind of crazy hours I keep—”

“I know, Nessie. But think about every single one of those things. Why do you do them, why are you in charge?”

She thought for a minute and I waited impatiently to see where her mind landed.

“Because someone asks me to be.”

Hmm. Interesting. So, if Cade asked you to please him, what would you do, mija?

“Exactly. You’re a people pleaser, Ness. You always have been. I think it means you’ve got a submissive streak about this wide, running through you.” Danica wrapped her arms around Ness’s hips and wiggled her butt back and forth.

“Maybe, but I’m not getting beat like that poor girl did.”

Ahh, that’s what scared her. Impact play was not for everyone.

“Have you ever even been spanked?”

“No.”

The warmth on her face told me she’d fantasized about it though.

“Then don’t knock it until you try it. You might be surprised by what you like and what you don’t.”

“I don’t know.”

She did.

“Well, so, how’s vanilla sex for ya, Nessie?”

Ness rolled her eyes at Dani and I already knew the answer to the question.

“Fine. Regular sex sucks.”

Dani nodded. “And not in the fun way.”
