“More coffee?” she asked, standing next to him with the pot.
“Yes, please.” Only after she’d poured him a cup and filled her plate did he fill his. He let out a moan of pleasure when he took a bite of the eggs. They were delicious.
Breakfast was eaten quickly and in silence. “Since you cooked, I’ll clean up.” He stood and carried the plates over to the sink. “While I’m doing this, go get your journal. I want to read what you wrote before we do anything today.”
“Yes, boss.” She gave him a saucy salute before dancing out of the room.
A smile crept over his lips. He was smiling a lot more since he’d made the deal with Janie. Her enthusiasm was catching. But he couldn’t afford to get emotionally attached to her. She was too young for him, and she wouldn’t understand what he needed from his partner. He’d finished up the dishes when she came into the room and held her journal out to him.
Cole dried his hands and took the journal. “Go wait by the pool.”
“Yes, Sir.”
He dragged his gaze away from her pert ass and opened the journal. He read the pages. She was getting better at telling him what she wanted, but something about her word choices told him she was still holding something back. Closing the book, he tossed it on the table and went to his playroom.
Grabbing his toy bag, he placed vibrators, bullets, nipple clamps, restraints, and several different lengths of rope into it. Today he was going to push her a bit and see if she would verbalize whatever she was hiding.
He strode out the side patio door and stopped in his tracks. A nude Janie knelt next to the pool, a towel underneath her knees so she didn’t injure herself on the concrete. He hadn’t told her to do it, she just had. His gaze swept her from head to toe. Her form was perfect.
She’d braided her hair and pinned it up. From his side view, he caught sight of her phoenix tattoo. She still hadn’t told him the full story behind it, but she would. He dropped the toy bag on one of the lounge chairs, then stripped out of his clothes. He had a bathing suit on underneath. “You may stand, pet.”
Janie rose to her feet with grace, and he grinned. He’d worked with her, and she was a quick learner. Digging into the toy bag, he found the nipple clamps and pulled them out, concealing them in his hand before he approached her.
“Back to me and head up.” Her head snapped up, and she gaped at him before presenting her back. His cock was already hard and straining the limits of his trunks. Oh, they’d played, but he’d always kept his pants on. Not today.
Cole pressed his chest against her back as he reached around and captured her left nipple with his fingers. Her quick intake of breath let him know he’d surprised her. He rolled the nipple between his thumb and forefinger until it was stiff.
He held up the tweezer clamp and tightened it on her. She took another deep breath, but nothing else. Then he did the same with the right nipple. Janie shifted on her feet but otherwise didn’t move. The clamps were tight, but not too tight. He wanted to see how she reacted to them.
Cole ran his hands over her stomach to her hips before sliding them to her ass as he took a step back. Already her skin was flushing with arousal. “My nipple clamps look good on you,” he said as he went back to his toy bag and pulled out a timer. He set it for ten minutes.
His cock was stiff and growing harder by the moment. He crossed over to her and turned her around. “Head up.” When she did as he’d ordered, he grinned. Her eyes were bright with excitement, and her nipples looked good adorned with his clamps.
“The clamps will stay on for ten minutes. How are you doing?”
“Green, Sir.” Her voice was soft. Her lips were still parted, and he was tempted to kiss her, but he didn’t.
“Are you aroused, my pet?”
“My pussy is wet, Sir, but then it’s been that way since you ordered me to get my journal.”
Cole grinned. She was getting better at talking to him during play. He pushed her to be vocal, and she was progressing. “Good. Now I want you to go sit on the first step in the pool.”
“The pool, Sir?”
“Yes, pet.” He let out a chuckle when she took her first step and gasped. The clamps had shifted on her nipples. She took smaller steps to the pool. Cole was glad his home was protected by trees. It afforded him the privacy he needed to train Janie.
His heart stuttered. Yes, he was training her, but part of him was aware he was training her to please him. He pushed his emotions aside. He wouldn’t fall for her. He turned to his toy bag. He’d only agreed to train Janie to protect her. Once he was done with her training, he’d find a good Dom for her, one who would take care of her. He wouldn’t allow her to fall into the wrong hands as his sister had.
Taking a deep breath, he picked up the rope, restraints, a waterproof vibrator, and a bullet, then made his way to the pool. Janie was already sitting in the water on the first stair. What to do first? He set the toys on the concrete before slipping into the water.
He’d turned up the heater earlier so it was the perfect temperature. Walking down the stairs, he stood in front of Janie. Her green eyes danced with excitement. Cole placed his hands on her knees and spread her legs until he could stand between them. At least his hard dick was confined by his swimming trunks.
“We’re going to start today with you touching me.”
Her gaze jerked to his face. “Really, Sir?”
Her features lit up like a kid being given license to run rampant in a candy shop. “Yes, there’s only one rule. You are not to pull my cock out of my trunks.”
