로그인Jared POV
I felt relief flood through me. I wanted her to want what I wanted and I was grateful that she did but I composed myself before I let my emotions run wild.I still had to tell her the rules.
I straightened my back and took a deep breath before beginning, "Alright then, Zina. First things first, when we get into my playroom you are to address me as Alpha, Master, or Daddy, whichever one you prefer, though, I prefer Daddy most of all. Do not call me Jared. I will instantly punish you, without warning. Do you understand?"
Seeing her eyes widened, she nodded and I watched several emotions cross her features but I continued,
"Second, do not look me in the eyes unless I ask you to. Do you understand? Your eyes are to be on the floor."She, again, nodded and I could see the gears in her mind working to retain the information but there was still more to come. "Third, I need you to listen to every command I give you. If you do not listen the first time I will instantly punish you. And the only thing to save you from punishment will be a safe word. Do you understand?"
Her lips parted as if to speak but only nodded again so I continued.
"Fourth, do not speak unless I instruct you to. Do you understand?"
I watched as she took her bottom lip between her teeth and nodded."Finally, I need you to come up with a safe word. It seems that I am the first dominant you've ever been with so I doubt you're ready for everything I have planned for you tonight. Think of a safe word now, Zina."
I gave her a moment to think then asked, "Do you have one?" She nodded, smiled, and whispered, "Muffins."
I smiled at the innocence of the word but made my expression stern again.
"Can you remember that? It's very important you don't forget your safe word. If at any moment you can't take any more I need you to immediately call out that word. At that moment I will stop what I am doing and give you a moment to collect yourself and we will assess how you feel. At this moment I will allow you to speak freely to let me know what and how you're feeling. Do you understand?"
She nodded, still smiling but I could see her hands were shaking, hopefully in anticipation.
I brought my hand down from her face and traced down her throat, sliding my fingers over her shoulders. I was so ready for all of this skin to be covered in hickeys.
I was so ready to mark her.
To make her mine."Is there anything at all that you're against? Any names you don't want me to call you? Any part of your body you don't want me to hit, spank, or slap? Anything you don't think you'll be comfortable with? Because once we go into my playroom I will not allow you to speak unless I tell you to do so unless it is your safe word. I will have my way with you and you will take everything I give you. Tell me now if there's anything you feel uncomfortable doing."
She furrowed her eyebrows in confusion, "What do you mean? Give me an example."
"Slut," I knew she didn't mind that word but added it just in case, "whore, bitch, cum bucket, fuck toy. Do these words or any words like these bother you?"
She thought for a moment and shook her head. I was pleased to see she had a humiliation kink as I enjoyed thinking of her as my slut and was all too happy to say it out loud.
"Would you be uncomfortable if I slapped your cheeks? Your pussy? Your thighs?" She blushed at the harshness of my words and I couldn't help but smirk at the innocence of it.
"No, I don't think I will mind," she whispered. I ran my hand back up to her neck and lightly squeezed the sides, hindering only blood flow, not airflow, "Does this bother you?"
"No," she moaned, her eyes still on mine.
I growled and pulled her to me by the back of her neck, crushing my lips to hers.
She complied, bringing her hands up into my hairband lightly scratching my scalp. She moaned into my mouth and I sucked in her bottom lip, biting it gently.
I pulled away, placing one last quick kiss to her bruised lips, and turned, "Grab those waters. We will be needing them," I stated, walking from the kitchen and up the stairs.Standing in front of the seemingly innocent white door, I punched in a code and pushed the handle down, opening the door a crack.
"Do you remember the rules, Zina?" I asked her.
She nodded, her eyes glued to the door. I could see that she was curious but ready for what was on the other side.
I grabbed her chin and forcefully turned her face to look up at me, "Do you remember your safe word? Remind me of what it is."I commanded.
I remembered what it was but I needed to know that she did. She could forget all of the rules but the one thing she couldn't forget was her safe word. Once I go into this room I am no longer Jared, the sweet and caring wolf. I am Dom: a commanding and ruthless dominant who only wants and expects total submission. And only Zinas' safe word will save her from that side of me.
"We will have her, trust our mate. I can smell her arousal, She's ours." My wolf whispered."Muffins," she whispered, tongue parting her lips, wetting them.
I dropped her chin and opened the door, ushering her over the threshold of either her worst nightmare or her greatest dream.
Silently following behind her, I let her take in the room before saying anything. The room was dimly lit with 4 sconces on each of the four walls. It was the biggest room in the house behind the master bedroom and it was my personal favorite.
I watched as her gaze stopped on a few pieces of furniture. One, in particular, was meant to restrain her wrists high above her head as it stretched her torso while also separating her legs, restraining her ankles while she stood on a platform.
"You like that one," I whispered in her ear in a husky tone, chuckling when her breath caught and she nodded.
I side-stepped around her and moved to the far corner of the room to a single mahogany six-drawer dresser.
"Put those bottles on the nightstand over there," I gestured towards the bed, "and when you're finished, I want you to stand with your back against the door, head down. Can you do that for me?"
I turned to catch the slight nod she gave me. Opening the second drawer and knowing exactly what I was looking for, I took out a small brand new anal plug with the words 'Daddy's Slut' written in white cursive against a bubble gum pink background.
''Fitting for my little mate," I thought with a smirk.
"Yes, very fitting." Red snarky replied.
I also took out a small bottle of lube and was suddenly very excited with all these toys sprawled out in front of me and Zina was willing to let me use all of them on her, or so she said.
Turning around to see she had done as I'd commanded, I moved over to her, "Hold out your hand," I said in a gentle tone.
She complied without looking up but I could see the small smile on her lips. I placed the plug in the palm of her hand and was amused by her reaction.
Chuckling at her gasp, I asked, "Fitting, don't you think?"
I had hoped to get a good reaction and seeing the pink blush tint her cheeks made me unsure of how she felt. Was it an embarrassed blush or an excited but nervous blush?
She hadn't said anything, hadn't even moved, just held the plug in her small hand, examining it.
"Zina, look at me," I commanded.
She tilted her head and when her eyes met mine, I could see that her pupils had dilated again. I continued, "I've been very nice since coming in here, but from this moment on I won't be. You've given me your consent, you know your safe word and so I think we're ready to begin, don't you?"
I saw her open her mouth to speak and I was hoping she would as I would be able to dive right into a punishment but she closed her mouth in a hard line and nodded.
"Very good, little wolf. You remembered not to speak out of turn. Daddy's very proud of you," I cooed in a low voice and watched as she fucking beamed, her eyes shining brightly. Such a good little listener, she was.
POV: ZinaThe kitchen felt quieter than it had moments ago, though the silence was far from comforting. My gaze lingered on the closed door, the echo of Trina's heels against the floor replaying in my mind like a haunting melody. I should have felt victorious—watching her crumble under the weight of my words should've been satisfying. But as I stood there, the adrenaline ebbed, replaced by a hollow exhaustion that pressed on my chest.I sank into the nearest chair, rubbing my temples. The fight had drained me more than I cared to admit.From the corner of my eye, I caught the tea kettle on the stove. The sight of it brought a sliver of comfort, so I busied myself making tea. As the water boiled, the steam curling upward, my thoughts wandered to a time long before Trina and her perfectly curated chaos.---Xaden's laughter echoed through the kitchen, rich and unrestrained. I had been trying to teach him how to make pancakes, and his clumsy attempts had resulted in batter smeared across
POV: ZinaThe knock at the door wasn't surprising; I'd been expecting a delivery. Asher's new schoolbooks had been delayed for days, and I had spent the morning waiting to sign for them. But when I opened the door, my stomach clenched.Standing there, dressed as though she'd stepped out of a fashion magazine, was Trina.And she hasn't changed a bit.For a moment, neither of us spoke. Her sharp cheekbones and meticulously styled hair glistened in the sunlight. Her lips were painted a bright red, her eyes hidden behind oversized sunglasses that she slowly removed, revealing a piercing stare."Zina." Her voice was sugary but laced with badly hidden spite.I leaned against the doorframe, crossing my arms. "Well, well, well, if it isn't the woman who thought stealing my husband was a promotion. I see you have removed the devil's thorns on your head."Her painted lips twitched into a tight smile. "I see you haven't changed.""Neither have you bitch," I shot back. "What do you want from me?"
POV: JaredIt was a quiet morning in the office, the kind where everything felt routine. The hum of my computer filled the room as I worked through an endless string of emails. I liked mornings like this—structured, predictable. But the peace shattered in an instant.The door to my office slammed open so hard it hit the wall. I looked up, startled, as Xaden stormed in like a man on fire. His face was twisted with fury, his eyes sharp and blazing."Jared!" he snapped, his voice loud enough to carry through the entire floor.My assistant, Sarah, appeared behind him, looking flustered and apologetic. "I tried to stop him, Mr. Jared, but he—""It's fine," I interrupted, holding up a hand. "Close the door, Sarah. I'll handle this."She hesitated for a moment, clearly unsure if she should leave me alone with him. I gave her a reassuring nod, and she finally backed out, shutting the door softly behind her.Xaden wasted no time. He strode over to my desk, his movements stiff with anger. He pl
A Mother's Dilemma Zina POV The morning sunlight filtered through the curtains, painting the kitchen with a soft glow. I had barely slept, my mind running circles around the storm Xaden had stirred up. His words from last night haunted me: the anger, the betrayal, and his unspoken promise to not back down.I placed two plates of scrambled eggs and toast on the table, the aroma filling the small kitchen. Asher shuffled in, rubbing his sleepy eyes and dragging his stuffed dinosaur behind him. His messy curls framed his face, and despite my inner turmoil, his presence brought a fragile sense of calm."Morning, Mom," he mumbled, climbing into his chair."Good morning, sweetheart," I replied, trying to sound cheerful. "Did you sleep well?""Uh-huh," he said, already diving into his breakfast. "I'm so hungry!"I chuckled softly, though the sound felt forced. Watching him eat reminded me of how much I had to lose. My appetite remained absent, but I sat across from him, sipping on a glass o
Zina's POVThe knock on the door was sharp and insistent, cutting through the quiet of the night. My chest tightened as I glanced at the clock. Midnight. No one came by this late, especially not unannounced. The heavy silence in the house suddenly felt suffocating.Hesitant, I moved toward the door, each step weighed down by an inexplicable sense of dread. When I opened it, my breath caught. Xaden stood there, his tall frame illuminated by the dim porch light. His face was a storm of fury, his eyes blazing with anger."What are you doing here?" I asked, gripping the door tightly to steady myself."You didn't think I'd find you, did you?" His voice was sharp, cutting through the air like a blade."I don't know what you're talking about," I said quickly, trying to shut the door, but he shoved it open and stepped inside."You don't get to shut me out, Zina," he growled, his voice rising. "Not this time."I glared at him, my heart pounding. "You can't just barge into my life like this. Yo
Zina POVThe water pours down relentlessly, the sound a soothing yet deafening roar around us. Each droplet feels like a whisper against my skin, but it does little to calm the storm raging within me. Jared's arms are wrapped securely around me, his chest rising and falling steadily as if he isn't as affected by this as I am. How could he be so calm when I feel like my world is on the verge of shattering?I press my forehead against his chest, trying to focus on his warmth. It's grounding, comforting even. I should feel safe here, and I do, but there's an undercurrent of fear—fear of what this moment means, fear of what I've just given him, fear of the unknown future."Zina," Jared's deep voice cuts through the quiet chaos in my head. He says my name softly, almost reverently, as if it's the most precious word he's ever spoken. "Look at me."I hesitate for a moment, reluctant to meet his gaze. When I finally tilt my head up, his dark eyes are waiting, filled with something I can't qui
