My chest swells with pride.
Someday, when I’m old and alone because I fucked things up by lying to the best woman to ever enter my life, I’ll think back on this moment and remember how goddamnincredibleit felt to be the one who put that smile on Sutton Hart’s face.
Chapter Thirty-One
Max
The flight to Vegas was short, and I spent it following up on emails I’ve ignored for too long. With Sutton becoming my submissive, I’ve been able to sate my desire for her enough that my focus has started to return, but she’s so far under my skin now that I don’t think I’ll ever truly recover.
But I’m not willing to lose my company or allow my best friend to invoke some sort of bullshit clause that gives him and the board my share of the power, so, even if that was something he believed was in the best interest of Apex Athletics, I refuse to let things get to that point.
Which means getting my shit together enough to get back in the game.
With Sutton now joining me each night at the club, I’m able to devote more of my waking hours to agenting, rather than fantasizing about what it might be like if she was mine.
Because, at least to some degree, she is.
Delusional as that may be, I’m willing to accept the scraps I am given.
Once I’m settled in my room at the Cosmo, I stretch out atop the bed and switch phones. Time to check in with my girl.
DOMINUS: Where are you?
BB: In my hotel room.
At the Luxor, just a few minutes away from me. I smile at the idea of her staying so close by. I doubt she knows I’m in Vegas at the same time as she is, though she’ll find out soon enough. Ilong ago made it a point to know about the comings and goings of Sutton Hart, but even more so now that she’s mine to keep track of.
Well,Dominus’to keep track of.
I’d be wise to remember that.
DOMINUS: Have you eaten lunch?
BB: Yes, Sir. Have you?
I smirk because I can hear her tone through the text. Such a sassy little thing.
DOMINUS: Have you touched yourself today?
BB: No
BB: No, SIR
DOMINUS: How much time do you have before your event?
The Raiders’ Fall Festival begins in three hours. I know how much time she has.
BB: Plenty, Sir
I grin as I consider the next instruction. It’s a shame I won’t get to see her until later, won’t get to watch her bring herself to the edge, then tumble right over it, but when I bump into her tonight, I’ll know.
It will be evident in the way she’ll glow, the relaxed set of her shoulders.
Perhaps her cheeks will still be rosy from the lingering effects of the orgasm.
DOMINUS: Does your room have a bathtub?
BB: Yes.
