“Cheater,” I giggled. “I can’t just walk out empty-handed.”
He smiled brightly and then offered his free hand to me. I looked down at his hand. He wiggled his fingers.
“You can hold this if you’d like,” he whispered.
“Seems like a fair trade,” I smiled then held his hand.
Us holding hands melted me. It felt like hundreds of butterflies fluttered around inside me, giving me tingles, warmth, and a happy sensation. It was a feeling unlike any other. Perhaps, I’d even go as far as to say, I finally felt complete.
“Are you overthinking again?” Tyler asked, looking down at me. I looked up at him, shook my head, and smiled.
“For once, I’m not.”
“What is it then?”
“I’m just happy.” I stood on my tippy-toes and kissed him gently. “Truly happy.”
“Good. And, that’s the only feeling I ever want you to feel…” A devilish grin crossed his face. “Other than toes curling and you screaming my na--”
I clapped my free hand over his mouth.
“Behave or I’ll have to punish you,” I lowered my hand, but kept my stern look.
“Punish me? How so?” he asked with an eyebrow raised.
“Oh, I’m sure I can think of something… Mr. Benedict.”
I let go of his hand and quickly took off towards the side entrance door. I opened the door and ran outside to my car. The entire time I laughed while Tyler chased after me silently.
When I popped the trunk of my car, he set the caddy down then shut the trunk. Quietly, he made his way over to the driver’s door and opened it for me.
“Such a gentleman,” I smiled then slid into the driver’s seat.
“Buckle up.”
“Always do,” I replied, putting on my seatbelt.
He leaned down into the car. His face was now inches from mine. The wicked look in his eyes made me swallow hard as my heart raced and my thighs squeezed together.
“You’re going to pay for that little stunt tonight, Beautiful,” he smirked then kissed me swiftly, stood tall, and shut the door. He gave me a small wave before gesturing for me to turn on my car.
How was I supposed to concentrate knowing I’d be coming back here for my punishment?I wondered, digging my keys out of my pocket and starting my car.
“Who am I kidding?” I laughed and rolled down the window as I drove down the driveway, shouting, “See you, tonight, Mr. Benedict!”
Sure. I’d have to pay for that stunt too, but I was all for being punished and then some by Tyler. The spankings he was going to give me were just going to be dessert because I was his. He thought he owned me just by the title of calling me his girlfriend; however, he owned more than that. He owned my mind, body, and soul as well. And, tonight, I was going all-in.
ChapterThirteen
When I pulledup to Tyler’s house, I noticed all the lights were off and the front door was open partway. Panic flooded me as every worst-case scenario ran through my mind.
Slamming on the brakes, I threw my car into park, grabbed my keys, and frantically got out. My legs shook as I ran to the front door.
“Tyler!” I called out, rushing into his house. “Tyler!”
I felt around on the wall for the light switch, when I was unsuccessful for several seconds, I chose to battle my way through the dark towards the kitchen.
“Tyler!”
