Silken Desires (27 page)

The whipping stopped immediately at the use
of her safeword. “Rox?”

Roxi nodded her head as best as she could.
“Yes, red.” She began to cry out in hysterics for fear that he’d
start again. “Red, red, Jonathan, red!”

He mumbled a string of cuss words, and then
the feeling of her hands and ankles being freed was a relief. “I’ve
got you Rox, I got you.” He lifted her in his arms and took her
from the playroom into their bedroom laying her on the bed.
Stroking her face and pulling the hair from her tear-streaked cheek
he looked at her, really looked at her. “Are you all right?” She
nodded her head slowly, unable to stop crying. “What happened Rox,
why did you safeword?” Through her watery eyes, she could see the
mark of worry on his brow.

“It hurt Jonathan.” She hiccupped back a
sob. “It hurt a lot.”

“Oh, baby, I’m so sorry. I didn’t know, you
always yell no and to stop, which usually just means more. I didn’t
know until you actually safeworded that I needed to stop.” He
cradled her in his arms and held her tightly. The contact felt
nice, but couldn’t take the sting out of her ass. “You should’ve
stopped it sooner,” he said.

“I forgot how. I panicked.” She
sniffled.

“
Shit
. I should have paid more
attention to you. I’m sorry.” He nuzzled his face into her neck
above her shoulder. “I never wanted to hurt you. But look,” he said
pointing to her hind parts. “I didn’t even hit you that hard. You
barely have any marks on you.”

She reached back and rubbed her hand across
her bare skin, and winced. “It sure doesn’t feel that way.” Getting
up slowly she walked to the closet and opened it revealing a full
length mirror on the inside of the door. Her hair was a mess, her
face and chest were red and splotchy. Turning around, all she saw
in the reflection were a few tiny pink stripes. “What the hell? It
feels like it’s on fire.”

Roxi walked back to the bed and sat
carefully. “Do you think that maybe we can retire the whips for a
while. I’m not so sure I like them anymore.”

“Oh God, yes! I don’t ever want to hurt you.
You have to know that I’m going to be very easy with you from now
on, and I will keep asking for reassurances throughout our scenes.
I never want to see you like this again. It hurts me, too.” His
eyes searched hers.

“I think I’d just like to be your tame
little slut for now. Is that all right?” She looked away from
him.

He pulled her chin toward him. “You can be
whatever you want Roxi. Thank you.”

“For what?” Confused by the thanks, she felt
her brows pull down.

“For safewording. It means the world that
you trusted in me to stop when you needed me to. Thank you.” He
pressed a hard fast kiss on her lips to which she responded back
with a moan.

Roxi rolled onto her back and spread her
legs in invitation. Jonathan crawled between her thighs, and
slipped his cock into her wetness. Thrusting in and out slowly he
made love to his woman, she moaned as he woke the feelings from
earlier on the couch. This time they kept their eyes on one
another, it was truly erotic and more intimate than she could ever
remember it being.

She started to cry again, and Jonathan
stopped all movement. “What’s wrong, honey?” He trailed his fingers
along the side of her face.

“Nothing, nothing’s wrong Jonathan.
Everything’s perfect.” She wrapped her legs around his waist,
wiggled, and felt a smile spread across her face.

Finally, the worry drained from his face and
he smiled back. Cupping her face he leaned down and kissed her
softly. He pulled his mouth from hers. “Yes, everything
is
perfect.”

First, I would like to thank you, the reader
for purchasing my work, and also a big thanks to those who
encouraged me to continue writing the Silken stories. Randi
Alexander, bad cop and editor, thank you for all you do, because I
know I must make you nuts. Mina Carter thank you for my awesome
cover, you rock. My beta-readers - Thank you; Leslee Murray, and
Peggy Lang (and I guess Richard Lanzarotta, too). And lastly, I
want to thank my family and friends for all of their love and
support. Without them I couldn’t do this.

Laci enjoys spending time with her family
more than anything. She and her husband support their children on
the soccer pitch, and off. In addition to reading and writing Laci
takes pleasure in the outdoors by way of hiking and camping.
