“I didn’t have a terrible time.” A few ofthe foster parents had a bit of a heavy hand or just didn’t want anything to dowith me, but I made it through fairly unscathed.
“But I had to move quite a lot and nothingwas ever permanent. It affected how I see relationships, as you might guess.” Ihadn’t gone to therapy like Asa, primarily because back in the day no onethought to go, but I wasn’t completely in the dark about my issues.
“Ownership of something, even the personI’m seeing, is important to me.” Not exactly healthy, but it was a significantpart of how I saw things. “But I wasn’t sure if that was a good fit for you,not kink-wise, but in other ways.”
“All the shit we experience shapes us, butwe get to choose how we respond.” Asa slowly reached up and squeezed my hand. “IfI want to be owned and you want to own me, there’s nothing wrong with that.”
Squeezing his neck, I chuckled. “Preciselywhat you knew Miles would say.”
He grinned. “We might have had thatconversation a few times. Hypothetically, of course. Before I saw you at theclub. But I knew the answer wouldn’t change just because it was you.”
“Because you’re so smart?” My question hadhim grinning.
“That, and because I didn’t scare you offwhen I told you about what I wanted and when I kept cuddling up to you. SomeDoms just aren’t prepared for a sub that knows what they want.” His tone saidhe thought that was disappointing but not unexpected.
“I knew you were right for me when you werelaid back about the whole thing, but you knew when to draw the line and takecontrol.” A smile ghosted his lips. “I just want you to take more control.”
I snorted. “Be careful what you wish for,imp.”
A shiver ran through him and a low moanescaped him. “Does that mean we’re going to renegotiate that rule about notouching below my waist?”
I chuckled. “Yes, we will revisit thosetonight and talk about what you’re comfortable with.”
“And if I like being a little uncomfortablewith the rules?” He opened his eyes and looked over to study my expressionagain. “Is it really submission if it’s all sweet and easy?”
I snorted. “Yes, but only for otherpeople.”
He grinned. “You’re going to like making mesquirmy and putting crazy rules in place just to make me really have to thinkabout it.”
“Of course.” I thought that was obviousenough I wouldn’t have to state it.
“You’re going to start controlling a lotmore?” He shifted just enough that I knew he was trying to subtly play with hisdick.
“I’m going to find a cage to lock that dickup in if you keep trying to play with yourself.” I scoffed when he giggled.
“I just can’t come. That was the rule.” Hisgrin was so big, I knew I had to fuck with his head just a bit.
“That’s the rule for now.” Letting my handmove around to his chest, I slid it lower until I was just at the edge of hispants but didn’t go any farther. “Spread your legs.”
His breath seemed to be caught in his chestbecause it was ragged as he obeyed. “That’s better. Cleaning or pissing is theonly time you need to touch my toy. Is that clear?”
Asa’s entire body seemed to clench beforemelting into the seat. If his erection hadn’t been so obvious, I’d have thoughthe’d come. “Yes…I…”
His inability to get the sentence out madehis opinion on the new rule clear.
“If you disobey, it will be a very longtime until you get to come again.” The vague threat didn’t seem to help hisability to get a response out. “I’m waiting.”
Out of the corner of my eye, I saw himswallow several times and sit up straighter like that would help get more bloodto his brain. After a few seconds, he tried again. “Yes, Master, I understandthe rule.”
Stroking low on his torso, I nodded. “Goodboy. Your cock belongs to me. I’m allowing you to wash it and hold it forthings like peeing, but that is it. No teasing yourself or fiddling with it.Your two orgasms are still in effect, but you still have to ask for those.”
He swallowed and had to fight for wordsagain. “And you might say no?”
I rolled my eyes. “Of course; just becauseyou want something doesn’t mean you can have it. You’re mine and that means Icontrol you.”
He shivered again and if it weren’t for theneedy look on his face I’d have been worried about his reaction. More than onesub had said I was taking the idea of being a Master too far and had walked outwell before I’d gotten to this point, so I wasn’t sure how Asa would react.
But Miles had said we were a good match andI had to trust that.
