“How do you feel?” he asks.
“Incredible,” I reply with a soft smile, but frown at him when he sighs.
“How badly did Troy hurt you that you give no reaction to that?” he asks, stroking my cheek with his thumb.
“I grew accustomed to the pain,” I admit.
“I’m going to move to the whip, but you should be aware of something,” he says.
“What?”
“Troy is here. I noticed him on the last set. He is with Natalie, apparently,” Julian says carefully. “He is behaving, so I won’t cause a scene, but Calder and Ryan are keeping an eye on him.”
“Let’s give him a show to remember then,” I say sweetly.
“I’m going to walk you through it just as I would anyone new. You absolutely cannot move. Okay?”
“Yes, sir,” I purr. He grunts before kissing me hard and disappearing.
“Okay, Kitten. You ready?” Julian asks, making the club go quiet again.
“Yes, sir.”
“I’m going to use a leather bullwhip. Nothing special about it. I will do one good crack near you first, but it will not make contact. I want you to get used to the sound first so that you don’t tense up when I make contact. Do you have any questions?” he asks.
“No, sir.”
“For those watching, keep your commentary to yourselves. No talking, whispering, or making any noise. Eliza is resilient, but she has never felt the bite of a bullwhip, and this is our first public scene. So, do not be distracting.”
The first crack surprises me, and I scream but fall into giggles. “Sorry,” I laugh.
“No need to apologize, Kitten,” Julian chuckles. “One more.”
He cracks the whip again, and I don’t react. When it cracks again, it softly grazes my lower back. I gasp, but don’t move. The next one bites a bit more, and I sigh.
Julian slowly works his way into more and more intense hits. The fire in my skin fades fast at first, but then he starts in on the cracks that sear through me, prompting the return of the vibrations when I whimper. I am right back into a catatonic state, but each hit I take from the whip gets me closer and closer to an orgasm. I am eventually moaning with every hit, and my legs are shaking. One last hit sends me tumbling headfirst into an orgasm. Julian cracks the whip a few more times as it slowly rolls through my body. On the final hit, my arousal floods from my body. I am immediately weak, and I don’t have to call the word before someone unhooks my wrists and Julian scoops me into his arms. I am carried somewhere before I am laid on a table so the band can be taken off my thighs and the toy removed. All three men work on cleaning my body and applying salve.
After a while, the haze clears from my mind, and I move up to my elbows to rub my face with my hands, trying to get the tingles to go away.
“How do you feel?” Julian asks, leaning in front of the table to look at me.
“Amazing,” I say. “Thank you.”
“You are very welcome, Kitten,” he says with a soft smile. I slowly get up, and Ryan helps me get my dress back on but takes my thong off.
“Easier access,” he says with a wink. “Okay, guys. So, I have already talked to Liza about this, but she is leading everything. This is mostly for Julian, but I think it’s important that we all show her that we can listen just as well as we can command.”
“I trust her,” Calder says.
“I’m content submitting to her,” Julian says.
“And here I thought that might make you trust my word more,” I scoff. Calder chuckles, but Julian raises an eyebrow at me. “You heard me. You have no problem dominating, and that just proved it. You are just submissive when it comes to sex. If that is how you want things going forward, I am okay with that, but let’s not pretend we have a goal if we don’t.”
“Okay,” Julian says simply. I feel like he is testing me, but it pisses me off.
“Fine,” I say with a sudden smile. “If you are so submissive, then I want you to get on your knees and let Calder fuck your throat like the good boy I know you are.”
Calder and Julian just stare at me, but neither of them speaks. “What are you waiting for, Juli? You want me to dominate, right? Then get yourself and Calder naked, get on your knees, and suck his cock. Now.”
