Desired Discipline
BONDAGE ANNIVERSARY
Tori Carson
Book one in the Desired Discipline Series
Can bondage save a marriage? Once Nick uncovers Laura’s hidden desire for BDSM, there’s no going back. Laura craves his touch, but Master Nick wants more than her body. He demands her total submission.
Laura can only find the excitement she so desperately craves between the covers of the latest BDSM novel she reads alone in their bed. Then one night Nick, her loving, cater-to-her-every-whim, vanilla sex husband discovers her hidden library. To her surprise, he decides their anniversary getaway is the perfect time to turn her fantasies into reality.
Before he can put his plan into action, Nick must figure out how to tell his wife she’s actually married to a Dom. More than that, Nick is also part owner of DiscipliNation, a successful chain of kink clubs and an erotic toy manufacturing company. Can he dominate his lovely ‘ballbreaker of the boardroom’ wife—while keeping
his
balls intact?
Laura’s treacherous body revels in Nick’s domination. As a natural submissive, she thrives under his strict, unyielding command. He trains her to respond to his every touch and the line between pain and pleasure blurs—so much desire, she’s lost in it. Laura craves his firm hand, yet his sin of omission shakes her trust. She willingly offers her body, but guards her heart. Quickly, she learns that Master Nick isn’t just a hotter than hell, leather-clad, flogger-wielding alter ego. Dom isn’t a role he slips on like a mask. It runs in his blood, defines his personality and, once unleashed, there’s no going back. Master Nick won’t
play
at D/s. The gift of her body isn’t enough. He demands her total submission.

Chapter One
Laura woke up in bed alone. She sighed in frustration. It’d been that way for years, why was it bothering her now? She rolled over and put her hand on her husband’s pillow. Her mood softened when she found a rose and a card. Her husband had been so preoccupied lately, she’d been afraid he might forget their anniversary. She should have known better. Sniffing the rose, she noticed the thorns had been removed. Of course, he would think of everything.
Opening the card, she saw it was more like a pamphlet. The cover was a photo from their high school days. Wow, did they look…innocent, and stupid. The next page was a collage of pictures from back in the day. Goodness how times had changed.
My dearest Angel, I suspect looking at these pictures, you were struck by how much has changed since we first fell in love. My rainbow-streaked-hair girl has turned into a stunning corporate executive. Your hand-me-down station wagon with the monkey hanging from the rear-view mirror has been replaced with a car much more fitting your elegant style. Those terry cloth rompers, flip-flops and plastic bangles have been traded for linen suits, high heels and diamonds. We won’t even mention the changes in me. Suffice to say—goodbye cheesy mustache!
Our love has changed and grown too. I was pretty sure we had something special when we married. Now I know you are my life. My world revolves around your smile. Although I try to make sure you know that, sometimes I get mired down in day-to-day crap and I forget what’s really important.
The other night while you lay in bed sleeping, I needed to check something on the Internet. My tablet and laptop were in my briefcase, so I grabbed your tablet. I was pretty shocked to see your reading interests had changed so dramatically. Historical fiction to BDSM is quite a leap. I was even a little pissed off that I’d had no inkling.
Laura dropped the card.
Oh my God!
She grabbed her tablet and scrolled through the book section. Nick had gone through her tablet. Her hands shook and a faint, ill feeling took over. Her sweet, vanilla husband had looked through her extensive collection of BDSM books and short stories.
Holy crap!
She forced her breathing under control and picked up the card again.
I took note of the titles, purchased and read them all.
Holy fucking shit!
He read them. Read them all.
Every raunchy, hotter than hell scene barraged her mind.
That’s it. I’m divorced. Or dead. Our weekend getaway is just a ruse to give him time to hide my body.
Her hands shook so badly she laid the card on the bed before she continued.
Some I liked better than others. I found a few more I think you’ll like. We can talk about them this weekend.
I see now I have been neglecting you. Like everything else, our sex life needs to evolve. I’m relieved to see every story had the girl as the sub, except that one with the switch couple. I hope you weren’t overly fond of that story. That won’t be happening.
She read and reread the last part. It sounded like he wanted to play. Now her breathing was really ragged. Hope began to flicker like a little flame. Her husband was a successful attorney. He was Branson, of Branson and Associates. He knew how to take command. Just the thought of him commanding her got her wet. It was a little frightening. He certainly wouldn’t be a wussy Dom. Once he committed to dominating her, she wouldn’t be allowed any wiggle room. That’s just the way he was. Was she ready for this? Oh yeah, as long as he wanted it too… She loved him too much to push him into something he wasn’t comfortable with.
Please see the attached form. We need to be on the same page with this. Look over the list, add to it if I left anything out, complete it and bring it with you tonight. I have completed the same list. We will discuss it at the hotel. I’m sure we can negotiate a game plan from there. Be ready at four p.m. Wear a skirt or dress with stockings, high heels and no panties. Your soulmate, Nick.
Before she could do more than glance at the form, her cell phone buzzed letting her know she had a text. It was from Nick.
Did you find your card?
What should she say? She didn’t want to text about this, but he had to be wondering how she had received his…invitation. She texted back.
Yes, Sir, I will be ready.
He responded almost immediately.
Good girl.
Why was that hot? A shiver startled her. It was a freaking text message, yet she felt his whiskers brush her ear. His soft, warm breath caressed her neck as he whispered those two words. Two condescending words she wanted to hear over and over again.
Laura needed to get her imagination under control and focus. Nick expected the list to be completed by this evening. She was a little intimidated by the task. The list was long, detailed and extensive. If he’d had John, his PA, type the form, she would kill him. No doubt about it.
Nah, John would have used a sliding scale.
This list was very cut and dried. Each item had three choices—want to try, need more information, not interested. Yep, the form was very Nick. No shades of gray.
The first section included clubs, swapping and ménage.
Okay, she was feeling much less confident now. She’d just marked ‘not interested’ to an entire section. Shit. Did he want those things? What if he’d marked ‘want to try’ on those? Could she try it?
She just didn’t know. Nick had been her only partner. They’d been together since high school. She didn’t want anyone else. Did he? What had she got herself into?
Section two was just as worrisome. Nick had broken down bondage into various categories with everything from materials to equipment. What type of restraint did she want to experiment with? Did she want to use the softer materials like ties or scarves, or dive a little deeper and try rope or cuffs? Was she willing to be bound to a spreader bar, St Katherine’s wheel or St Andrew’s cross? How did she feel about suspension or swings? Blindfolds, gags, hoods or dental equipment…
She wiped a hand over her face. Had she created a monster? She didn’t even know what some of it was. At first, she answered using his three-point system. After a while, she started scribbling notes in the columns. She’d finished two sections when worry seized her. What if he decided she’d disobeyed by not following his format?
A short, panicky chuckle escaped looking at section three—‘Discipline’.
Oh fuck.
It started out simple enough with spanking. Spanking scenes always got her hot. It just seemed bizarre that corporal punishment could make a woman excited. She knew why it happened. She understood the physical dynamics, but it was the mental aspect that sent her into orgasm territory. Crap, he even made that scary. Did she want him to use his hand, belt, crop, slapper, flogger, paddle, whip or cane? Caning was right out. There wasn’t any mental anguish about that choice. Hell no. Whipping was out too, for the time being. Maybe later. Maybe not.
This section just kept going and going. Humiliation, electrical shock, orgasm deprivation, hot wax, fire and ice… He had even brought clamps into this section. She’d had no idea there were so many choices. How could she answer this when she had no reference to gauge it by? What was the difference between clover, tweezer and alligator clamps? Were weights and vibrators for pain or pleasure? Rubber bands were iffy. And what the hell was a Wartenberg Pinwheel? It sounded like something kids played with in the wind.
Oh good heavens!
Section four was titled ‘Anal Play’. Almost all BDSM stories had anal sex. It sounded…messy. She had to admit, at least to herself, a small part of her wondered what all the hoopla was about. Was it only enjoyable for the men or did the women really find it pleasurable too? Could any woman handle any man? Nick was large, larger than most, she suspected. She’d read about the ‘training’ process. Maybe it would work.
‘Pony Play’? That couldn’t mean what it sounded like. Nick was allergic to animal dander. She noticed the ‘fill in the blank’ line next to ‘plug material preference’ and was torn between laughing and crying. Obviously, Nick had done his homework. How had he gained so much knowledge in such a short period of time?
