Page 3 of Noelle

“Who wants to play elsewhere?” James’s voice boomed from the stairway.

“Aubrey seems to think you do,” I said simply. Tantalisingly slowly I rubbed my palm against her. She was angry, and in total brat mode but still turned on. Her body betrayed her every single time.

James paused. “Does she now?” moving towards us, he reached out and caught Aubrey’s chin between his fingers. Turning her head sharply to face him. “You think I want someone other than you?”

“I saw you.”

This was a new side to Aubrey, and it was one I wasn’t sure I liked.

“You saw me huh? Are you jealous?”

Furiously she shook her head. “I’m not jealous. The contract doesn’t say anything about …”

James cut her off with a growl, his fingers slapping her cheek gently. “Screw the contract Aubrey, tonight we are going to prove to you once and for all who you belong to. After tonight there will be no more silly jealous doubts in your head.”

I nodded my approval. “What’s your safe word, Aubrey.” I had been waiting for this night for so long. The night where our relationship went from masters and sub and into something more. The night where she would give us her full and ultimate submission.

“Trois.” she whispered.

Trois.

The one word that had started it all, six months ago. Her safe word, one that she rarely used. It was a word I had tattooed on my body now.

“Not tonight it isn’t Aubrey.” James forced his lips onto hers. His kiss was crushingly hard as my hand between her legs held her in place. “Tonight, your safe word is Noelle.”

I grinned. It was apt.

“Repeat it for me, Aubrey.” The bark of command was back in James’s voice.

I waited with bated breath to see whether she would say it or walk away. What would I do if she walked away now?

“Aubrey?” My voice was breathy with need. We needed to get out of this hallway and into the room sharpish. I didn’t know what had come over me but my need for her was taking over. Lust, need jealousy too. All of it warring for control. My palms itched to strike her, my lips to kiss her. My boy wanted to do a million different unspeakable things to hers. Things that would make her scream in pleasure and pain.

“Noelle.” She finally whispered.

“Good girl, and who do you belong to tonight? Who are you going to please?”

“You.” She puffed out her cheeks as she blew out a breath. “I’m going to please you, both of you.”

“Good girl.” He repeated. “Now go and get ready. I’m going to grab some water, tonight you are going to need it. Oh and Aubrey?”

She turned to face him; the angry look not quite gone from her face.

“Tonight, I’m going to make you hurt for doubting us. Is that ok with you?” He didn’t even try to hide the delight he was getting at the thought of hurting her. James had been holding back with her, scared that he would hurt her and scare her away. Tonight, he wouldn’t hold back. She had doubted him, doubted our whole relationship. And he would make her pay for her bratty behaviour.

“Yes, sir.” Demurely she dropped her chin towards her throat. Staring at her shoes.

“Good, now go and stand in the corner like you’re meant to.”

James

I took my time getting the water, not because I didn’t want to be in that room and stripping her naked but because I did. Desperately. I just wanted her to suffer a little as well.

She had doubted me, hell she had done more than doubt she had actively thought I was up on that stage with another woman as a dom and not as someone checking the safety of the ropes tied as a favour to a much less experienced couple.

The pain of her doubt was like an itch inside of me that I couldn’t scratch.

I had thought we were happy, that things were going well between us. I had thought she knew and trusted the games we played together. Hell, I had obviously thought wrong.
