WILDKAT: A little.

SAVAGE: In a good way or a bad way?

Katherine’s fingers froze over the keyboard. Her answercould very well ignite a dramatic change in their play. The thought scared herhalf to death. The other half was quivering with excitement. This was a chanceto experience something she’d never have the courage to try in real life.

She reminded herself of her New Year’s resolution. This wasthe New Katherine—a woman who would bravely and fearlessly reach for herdreams. Their flirting had just taken a sudden, frightening, exhilarating turn.But it was a turn she wanted to take. With him.

Trembling, she typed her response.

WILDKAT: In a good way.

There was a long pause.

WILDKAT: Savage? Are you still there?

SAVAGE: Yes. You caught me off guard as well. I nearly camewhen I read that.

WILDKAT: You did?

SAVAGE: I got this image in my head of you bent over myknees with your creamy ass cheeks up in the air. I’ll bet they’re round andfirm. Itching to be smacked.

Katherine’s breath hitched as the vision consumed her. Athrill ran through her body from her nipples to her pussy and she quivered as aminiature orgasm rocked her.

SAVAGE: Do you like to have your ass paddled? Do you likewhen it gets red and hot?

WILDKAT: I don’t know.

SAVAGE: Have you ever been spanked?

WILDKAT: No. But I’ve fantasized about it.

SAVAGE: Kat. Kat. Kat. We’ve talked about this. Why haven’tyou acted on your desires?

WILDKAT: God. I couldn’t. I just couldn’t. I’m tooself-conscious.

Damn but it was humiliating, having to admit that to him.She didn’t want to be like this, so rigid and reserved. But she was. She alwayshad been. He was the first man who’d ever made her feel like the wild woman shedesperately yearned to be.

And he wasn’t even real.

Well, he was real. But he only lived on her computerscreen. Oh. And in her fantasies.

SAVAGE: But your name is Wildkat. That’s the name youchose. Do you know what I think?

WILDKAT: What?

SAVAGE: I think you chose that name because that’s who youreally are. Who you really want to be, in the deepest, darkest corners of yoursoul. I think your Wildkat is trapped down there. Caged. And you know what elseI think?

WILDKAT: What?

SAVAGE: I think you need to let her out. Let her run free.Can you do that? Can you? Do you dare?

WILDKAT: Only with you.

He didn’t respond. At least not right away. Katherinewondered if he’d logged off or gone to the bathroom or something. And then hereplied.

SAVAGE: You can always be your true self, your wild self,with me. No restrictions. No hang-ups. We’ll never meet so I’m completely safe.You can tell me anything, everything, with no worries. And I’ll never judgeyou. I promise.

It was a tempting offer, one Katherine would be a fool torefuse. The opportunity to be herself with no fear, no repressions, norestrictions. Nothing but pure, unadulterated passion.
