The authority in his voice echoed in the silence, thick with unspoken command. Luca’s jaw clenched, his fists curling. He looked at me, his eyes holding a storm I couldn’t name. It was anger, frustration, shame… but I knew it wasn’t for me. It was for him, for being forced to watch, forced to confront the complexity of what tied us all together.
Vincenzo nodded toward a chair nearby. “Sit. You’ll watch.”
A muscle worked in Luca’s jaw as he ground his teeth, but finally, he relented, dropping heavily into the chair.
Vincenzo turned his attention back to me, his gaze dragging slowly down my naked body. “Stand up.”
I tried to obey, but it was hard to get my balance with my hands tied behind my back. Dorian reached down to help me, but Vincenzo stepped forward, gently lifting me to my feet.
I glanced at Luca. His eyes were dark and hooded as he took in the sight of me, and hell if that didn’t make my nipples hard.
They wanted me. There was no denying it. Each of them was breathing heavier, their pupils dilating as they took me in. And damn it all to hell, I wanted them, too. If this were to be my punishment, then I’d never obey Vincenzo’s wishes ever again.
Vincenzo moved closer, but he didn’t touch me. “Celeste Callahan, you’ve been found guilty of stealing from Vincenzo Moretti, Lord of the Night. There are many options at my disposal for your punishment. The option I’ve chosen is to show you who has the power here, who is in control, and who is not. Unfortunately for you,dolcezza, you are not the one in charge.” He took a deep breath and closed the gap between us, dragging a finger from the top of my shoulder down my arm and around to my stomach. His finger stopped just above my pelvis. “I’m going to take my time and enjoy every fucking second of this.”
Goosebumps erupted all over my body, and my nipples tightened even more. I nodded, not daring to say a word.
“Dorian, chair.” Vincenzo pointed to the chair across the room, and Dorian obediently dragged it to Vincenzo’s side. He took a seat and patted his lap. “Come here, Celeste.”
I moved slowly to his side and lowered myself onto his lap, his erection pressing into my ass. “I’m going to flip you over now.” Before I could protest, he grabbed my waist and twisted me over and pushed me onto his lap, so that I was facing the floor with my ass in the air. He held me firmly at the waist fora few moments. “This might hurt, Celeste. In fact, I guarantee it will.”
He reared back and slapped my ass. I yelped at the sting but tried to hold still as heat pooled between my thighs. Why the fuck was this turning me on? Vincenzo leaned over and whispered in my ear again. “I bet you liked that, didn’t you,dolcezza? I bet you’re dripping for me right now.”
Without a warning, he slapped my ass again.
Vincenzo hissed out a breath. “Perhaps I could make this a little more enjoyable for you, Celeste. Would you like that?”
“Mmm,” I moaned. Yes, I wanted more. I didn’t even care what he had in mind.
I couldn’t see anything except the floor, but my senses were heightened, blood rushing to my head. He rubbed his hand over my burning ass a few times before dipping lower. He spread me apart with his fingers and slid his middle finger inside me. I gasped at the change in sensation as he slowly moved in and out of me.
“You’re fucking soaked for me,dolcezza.” He brought his other hand down on my ass again. The pain and pleasure melted together into something indescribable, and I let out another moan.
“Hmm. I think she likes it,” he said to Dorian and Luca. “Maybe I’m not punishing her enough.”
I felt him slide two more fingers into me, and I gasped at the stretch. “Fuck, Vincenzo!”
He slapped my ass again, curling his fingers inside me. “Look how wet she gets for us when I spank that perfect ass.”
He slapped me again and again, his fingers picking up speed, hitting the right spot over and over again. My breath became ragged as I teetered on the edge of an orgasm.
Vincenzo must have sensed my impending release because he abruptly pulled his fingers out of me. When I cried out indisappointment, he pulled me up and sat me on his lap, directly on top of his rock-hard cock.
“Dorian, come here.”
Dorian met my gaze and moved forward without saying a word, licking his lips as he stopped in front of me. His cheeks were flushed with desire. Vincenzo grabbed my legs, pulling my feet up and planting them on either side of him on the chair. The position had me leaning back against his chest as he gripped my thighs and gently pushed my legs apart, exposing me to Dorian and Luca.
I glanced at Luca. He raked a hand through his hair, his impressive erection straining against his jeans.
Vincenzo gripped my ass, opening me even wider. “Dorian, I want you to pleasure Celeste with your mouth.”
Dorian lowered himself to the ground in front of me, reaching out to gently touch my inner thighs. He leaned in and slowly brushed his lips against my fold, breathing in my scent. “You’re already so fucking wet, sweetheart.” His tongue darted out, tracing a line up my slit to my clit. I groaned as he flicked his tongue over that sensitive bundle of nerves.
Luca bit his lip as he watched us. He unfastened his belt buckle, then pulled his jeans down to release his cock. He stroked himself slowly as he watched Dorian pleasuring me. I moaned, unable to contain the sounds. Vincenzo let go of my ass and ran his hands up to my breasts. He squeezed them gently, rolling my nipples under his fingertips and grinding his erection into my ass.
It was all too much. I wanted to grab the back of Dorian’s head and pull him closer, but my hands were still tied behind my back. The pleasure coiled tighter and tighter in my body until I almost couldn’t take it. Dorian sucked gently on my clit, and my every muscle tightened.
“Stop,” Vincenzo ordered, his hands leaving my breasts. “We can’t allow Celeste to get what she wants now, can we? That wouldn’t be much of a punishment.”
