“I’ll think about it. Should we go back to work?” she asked.

“No. We’re both wiped out. I’ll take us to my place. I’ll make dinner, and then we can watch a movie before bed.”

Her body tensed. “Wait. I can’t stay at your place?”

“Why?” Macy asked.

Her mind went blank for a moment. “Because I think you want more from me than I can ever give you, and I don’t want to disappoint you.”

He tipped her chin up so she could see his eyes. “I’m making you a promise right now that I will be able to make you enjoy sex. We’ll start from a clean slate, and if by chance, a very small chance, you can’t, I’m still going to want you.”

“How can you do that? I would never let you go for months without…”

“I’m in this for the long hall,” he said.

Her heart felt like it would beat out of her chest. God, he couldn’t be serious. Right?

“How about you come home with me? We’re just going to spend time together and get to know one another.”

“But I’ll be able to go later?” she asked.

“Do you trust me, Baby?”

She studied him for a moment and couldn’t believe she had nodded, and she meant it. She trusted this man more than she had any other person, and she couldn’t understand how or why?

Cat nodded. “Yes, I do.”

He looked so satisfied and arrogant that she almost smiled.

“Then you’re coming home. We’ll take everything at your pace, but I might push you a bit sometimes when I think you’re ready.”

“Like how?” Her stomach tightened as her fear started to grow.

“Touching and holding you. I’m also going to kiss you every chance I get, and I’m guessing you’ve enjoyed the ones I’ve given you so far.”

“I … yes, I have.”

“That’s good. Is there anything you need in your car or your apartment for tonight?”

She tried to think, but her emotions were darting all over the place, making it hard for her to concentrate. “I don’t think so.”

“You can wear one of my shirts to bed, and we can go by your place in the morning to get clothes and if you want to wash your hair. I don’t have any girly stuff at the apartment yet. But I will.”

It looked like he was trying to tell her something, but she didn’t know what it was. “Okay.”

He smiled and nodded. “Let’s get your seat belt on. I’ll call one of the guys on the road to tell them we’re done for the day.”

Cat nodded. She let him lift her into the seat next to him and put the seat belt on her. It was one of those things Doms liked to do, and she didn’t mind it at all. She knew she could get used to his treatment quickly. Feeling cared for and cherished were things she had never experienced before, but she had seen it with other subs, and she’d been envious.

Chapter Eleven

Macy gripped Cat’s hand as they drove toward his place. Although he was excited about having her to himself, he was also apprehensive about keeping his cool and not pushing her in any way. The last thing he wanted was to make her run from him. He’d take the time to get her used to him and touch her as much as he could. She already trusted him, and he thought that would make everything easier for both of them. “Do you like Chinese?” he asked her.

“Yes. I love it. Why?”

“I’m craving it, so I want to stop on the way home and get some takeout for us. Would that work for you?”

“Yes. Chinese is one of my favorites.”
