“David, really—”
“I know you want to, Sutton. It’s all over your face. Give in and take what you want. I’ve got you.”
“No, David—”
“Say yes. Come on, we’re already here.” He pushed me back against the leather and grinned. “Let me. It’s already happening. Look at you go!”
I didn’t know how but he’d already gotten one of my arms strapped to an arm of the cross. Anxiety made my body tingle but I felt like there was no way out of what he wanted.
“Fine. Okay. Just let me go as soon as the last strap is done. Okay?”
“Sutton, of course. I would never take advantage of you. I just want to do this for you and then we’ll go back to the table.” Heraised my other arm and strapped it in. “Spread those curvy legs, Sutton.”
I squeezed my eyes closed and tried to slow my breathing. I felt his hands on my calves and shuddered. I didn’t want him touching me. I didn’t want him to be anywhere near me. Why had I allowed him to get me on the cross?
“Okay, let me go.”
He gripped the back of my knee and held my leg in place to get the final strap on.
“Shhh, Sutton. Just let yourself experience it.”
My anxiety spiked even higher and I looked down at him with tears forming in my eyes.
“Let me go. Please.”
“Hush, baby. Look at you shaking. You want this. Youneedthis.” He trailed his fingers up the outside of my thigh. “I know what a sub needs. I’m the best dom in here, Sutton. You’re lucky.”
I struggled against the straps and looked around for help. No one was watching. I told myself to shout for help but I was frozen. I felt so stupid and embarrassed that I didn’t want anyone else to have to save me.
“Please, David. Please. I’m begging you. Let me down.”
“Be quiet, little subbie. Just enjoy the ride.”
“No. No, no, no. I don’t want this. I don’t consent. Let me go.” I watched as his face shifted and he stared up at me harshly. His eyes turned mean and I let the tears fall. “Please.”
He suddenly pinched my love handle and scowled.
“You should be grateful. Did you see anyone else coming to play with you? No, you didn’t.”
I tipped my head back and wished like hell that the guys were there. I didn’t know what David was going to do to me but I didn’t think I could stop him. I’d been such a fool.
“You know what I love to see? I love to see my sub covered in my handprints. Only pussies use props.”
I braced for the first slap, the crack of his hand on my skin, but instead I heard what I’d been praying for. Dominic’s furious voice felt like it shook the entire club.
“You touch her and I’ll fucking rip your throat out and let you bleed out where you stand!”
Dominic looked bigger than ever as he stormed towards us. He looked like a raging bull and if David wasn’t such a creep, I would’ve felt sorry for him. Leon and Theo were behind him, faces twisted in fury. They were there. They were going to save me. Relief swept through me and I went slack against the straps.
Dominic grabbed David by his throat and lifted him off his feet like he weighed no more than a child.
“Did you want to be strapped up there, Kitten?”
I shook my head.
“N-no. He kept pushing and he said he’d let me go as soon as he finished the last strap so I gave in but he wasn’t going to let me go. He w-wanted to hurt me.”
David managed to look betrayed even as his face turned redder and redder. Dominic threw him to the ground at Theo’s feet and Theo’s lips twisted in a terrifying smile as he squatted next to the gasping man.
