Lucky me.

He shoves my face down on the desk, and with the same hand holding the belt, he strips me, the leather teasing my naked skin.

He has an easy job of it with my loose leggings.

"Don’t—"

The leather cracks across my ass—hard—taking my breath away, but not so hard that I don’t know he’s modulating himself.

A man like him could do serious damage taking his belt to me, and the fact that he knows this and is so damn careful with me makes my pulse race with excitement.

I try to push against him. I writhe. But he holds me down so easily.

I love the feeling of being overpowered.

The way he presses his hand to the back of my neck. The way his other hand lifts the belt back.

"What do you need, little witch?" he says in a low drawl before snapping the belt across my ass again.

And again.

The next time, the leather hits the crease of my thighs, and it feels like fucking fire.

I howl. Squirm. Writhe. But it doesn’t matter.

He just holds me down and strikes me again.

"I asked you a question," he growls.

My eyes fly open and land on a quote pinned to his wall.

“Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there?—”

He chuckles, shaking his head, and finishes the line for me in his deep voice, “Wondering,fearing…”

The next lash strikes harder. I clench my teeth.

I'm leaning into this now, relishing the stripe of leather against my skin.

The pain that blooms into heat.

The arousal between my legs.

My racing heartbeat.

The feeling of being overpowered. Dominated.

Free.

My mind is a blank slate as it continues, his mouth in my ear.

"Cast your spell, little witch. Cast your fucking spell. You know I love it. You know I'm here for it. Spread those fucking legs and cast your spell on me."

The belt drops to the floor, and his hand comes to my ass, scouring, massaging the skin, and I love this. I love it so much, his rough palm and the erotic pain.

His fingers are at my pussy, sliding through my wet heat, in and out, just like that time at the bar, and I want more.

"I've missed you," I say because he hasn’t beenin mesince before my period, and I want him so badly.
