I unbuckled her gag, pulling it away and letting a long line of spit hit her in the chest, and then unzipping my pants enough to free my cock. “You’d better get me nice and wet, little bug, because it’s the only lube you’re getting... not like you’ll need much, you sloppy whore.”

Ecstasy took over as she opened her mouth and ran her tongue up from the base to the tip, the piercing in her tongue sending little shivers down my spine. She swirled her tongue around the tip once, twice, and then locked her lips around me, swallowing me down.

Absolute heaven. I groaned and pushed the back of her head harder against me, forcing her to take all of me. Her tongue darted out and lapped at my balls. She knew I absolutely lost it when she did that.

I wrenched her away from my cock and pulled her up by her arms, pushing her back against the trunk of the tree behind us so she was eye level with me, pinning her there with my bodyweight. I held onto her collar with one hand. “Tease.”

“You love it, Sir.”

“You’re going to suffer for that tomorrow.”

She grinned.

I positioned myself at her entrance and thrust inside her as hard as I could. Hot wet pleasure erupted through me, and I gave into my baser desires. She was mine to fuck, after all. I held her in place and fucked her with everything I had until she was screaming and begging for release.

But I loved those sweet little cries she let out for me. “No,” I growled again, and bit the soft spot where her shoulder met her neck. I thrust harder.

I could feel the sweat forming at my forehead and rolling down my back, my hips covered in her cum and the remnants of blood. Her ankles were locked around my waist and her bound arms were around my neck. She dug her fingers into my hair, gripping hard to regain control over the orgasm she was fighting off for my pleasure.

She was without words now, just sounds and gasps escaping from her lips. I pulled away from her neck and pressed my forehead against hers, looking her in the eye.

“Beautiful girl.”

“Sir.”

I kissed her, speaking against her lips as she lost her breath. “Come with me.”

Together, we drowned.

“Hey Sir?”

“Hm.”

“Am I tamed?”

We sat on a blanket under the tree where I’d just fucked her senseless. After she’d come down from her first orgasm, I’d put her on her hands and knees and done her from behind, and then taken her asshole until she was screaming. Then we’d cuddled against the tree and I’d given her water and butt rubs until she was breathing normally again. The sun was starting to set, and she was just now regaining the ability to speak.

“What does ‘tamed’ mean in your book?”

“Am I... a good girl?”

I smiled. Ah, that’s what she wanted. “You’re such a good girl, baby.” I kissed the top of her head and she snuggled harder. “But you’re also my feisty little fox, and my bright, beautiful phoenix. Besides... I never set out to tame you.”

“You didn’t?”

“No. Why would I want to change the thing I like most about you?”

“You said you would. That day in the snow.”

“That was an empty threat made to convince myself that I knew what I was doing.”

She giggled. Giggles were good, that meant she was coming back down and probably wouldn’t fall asleep when we got home. We had a party to host after all. I pulled her into my lap and made her look at me, holding her chin in my hand.

“You’ve completely destroyed me, you know that?” I stared into her eyes, relishing the splashes of colors. So many memories came to mind when I stared into her eyes, but the one thing that remained the same was the sensation of adventure and ownership. She was mine beyond a shadow of a doubt, but she would always be a challenge. She would never stop pushing me, testing me, or challenging me. She would never stop learning or growing with me.

And we had quite a few more years ahead of us. Not many people would have taken comfort in knowing their own fate, but I took comfort in the gift of knowing mine and Alice’s.

There would be a day, decades from now, where we would go to sleep and simply never wake up. It was the best thing I could ask for, and it would be painless for the both of us. Alice and I never had to have the conversation she didn’t want to have, I’d never lose another sub, and she’d never feel betrayed or abandoned by me.And that was all I could ask for.
