  “Price,” she said, her voice high with emotion. “Can I call you Master now? Are you my Master?”

  “I’m your everything,” I replied, curling my finger in the O-ring. “Owner, Lord, Master. But I’m partial to Sir. It sounds less pompous.”

  A smile curved the corners of her mouth. “You’re never pompous, Sir.”

  I gave her cheek a little crack for the snarkiness, still holding the O-ring. She gasped, five percent of it dismay and ninety-five percent of it lust. Yes, I was sometimes pompous, and I didn’t mind her pointing it out. We could still have jokes and warmth between us. We could have everything now.

  I let go of the ring and opened my hand, and wrapped it around her neck, squeezing just enough. “Talk to me, starshine,” I said. “Do you want this? Tell me your definitive answer.”

  I already knew her answer, but I was thrilled to hear it anyway.

  “Yes. Yes, Sir, I want this.” She swallowed hard against my palm, gazing at me, eyes clear and free of tears. “I belong here in your cage. In your dungeon.”

  Cages and dungeons weren’t the best way to love, but they were necessary between us. They were the best way to make our relationship work. That’s what I told myself, anyway.

  I grasped her neck tighter, curling my fingers over the elegant brown collar, then pulled her close until our lips met through the cage bars. With a soft growl of contentment, I sealed our covenant with a kiss.

  Trust Me: Rough Love Part Three

  It’s been three years since they first met, and Chere is finally where she wants to be: in Price’s dungeon.

  Well, she’s in his dungeon part of the time. The rest of the time, she’s living in his home, eating his food, sleeping in his bed, reading his books, wearing his—well, no, he won’t let her wear anything. In fact, there are a lot of things he doesn’t allow, more than she ever imagined in her torrid fantasies. Life under Price’s control is an adjustment, and sometimes a nightmare.

  It’s not long before she realizes she’s in way over her head…
