Impulsive (The Soldier's Firm Hand) (9 page)

“Three months isn’t very long, you know. Sometimes I’ll be gone longer than that, and to places a lot more dangerous.” The humor had drained from his voice. “It’s not all sexy uniforms and military discounts. It’ll mean time apart and moving around to who knows where. I’d understand if you...”

I put a finger on his lips to quiet him, because he wasn’t telling me anything I hadn’t thought of a hundred times already. “Do you want me waiting for you? Because a home is the people that make it, not a number of days per year, or the view out the window. My job is my camera, and I can work from anywhere so long as I know you want me there.” My voice cracked a little at the end. So many feelings were trying to come out at the same time that I was surprised I’d managed to say as much as I had without crying.

I wanted him, his heart, his body, his soul. I wanted it all. I even wanted the sting of his hand when I’d messed up, because with him I’d always know where I stood. If he wasn’t happy he’d tell me, if I screwed up, he’d punish me and nothing would ever fester away in silence to eat away at our happiness.

Fingers crossed, I stopped dancing and looked up, once again amazed that this handsome man was mine, and praying I could keep it that way. “Jared Pate, bossy rescuer of damsels in distress, would you do me the honor of being my husband?”

His eyes opened wide and his jaw dropped, but he recovered quickly. “I thought that was supposed to be my line.”

“You want a husband?” I teased, tipping my head to the side and throwing down the gauntlet. “Welcome to the new millennium, you big ape. You might get to spank me crimson, but I can make an honest ape, er man, out of you if I want, and you want...” Flustered, I waved my hands around nervously. “You know what I mean.”

He smiled, cupping my face in his hands and brushing our lips together to stop my babbling. “Yes, kitten. Of course I will, but just so we’re clear, you’re still wearing the dress.”

A giggle slipped out, and once I started, I couldn’t stop. Even when my eyes filled with tears and we’d attracted the attention of most of the other dancers. He held me to his chest and I could feel him laughing right along with me. Through blurry eyes I saw Grant and a couple other people watching us with grins that showed they probably had a good idea of what had just happened.

Jared raised a hand and shouted to get everyone’s attention. “Hey! Make room for one more chair at the Thanksgiving table this year. I’m gettin’ hitched!”

I was both mortified and deliriously happy. “Um, Jared? Thanksgiving is only like a month away.”

He winked. “That should be plenty of time to fly a few friends to Vegas, don’t you think? Unless it’s too impulsive for you...”

“You know what?” My smile was so big it made my cheeks ache. “That sounds absolutely perfect.”

Disciplining Maddie

Luke and Maddie have known each other for months, but only through phone calls and email. When they finally meet, the chemistry between them is impossible to deny, but there's still a lot to learn about each other. Luke has some very old-fashioned ideas about how to handle a wife, and Maddie isn't at all sure her bottom is going to be up for the challenge.

Included here are all 3 of Maddie and Luke's stories: Wife Wanted, Wife Courted and Wife Claimed. This collection includes mature sexual content and domestic discipline (including spanking) between consenting adults and makes up a complete novella of approximately 15000 words.

Rough, romantic or a little of both, I love to write about women and men who know what they like and aren't afraid to go after what they want. Dreaming up hot fantasies helps fill the long summer days, and keep me warm during the dark winter nights. My favorite topics to explore are domination and submission.
