southward.
    He pulled back, his lips still touching hers. “All you have to do is say it.”
    She willed her mouth to work, but the signals weren’t making their way to her brain. “ Still n othing?” he taunted, as she struggled to pull herself together. Pushing her closer to the edge, he ground his growing erection into her and she eagerly matched his movements. Whimpering she pressed into him, wanting more, wanting to be taken.
    “No no,” he pulled back, holding her still when she tried to follow him. “I want to hear you say it. Tell me what you want.”
    “Gabe, please,” she finally managed. Just say it she told herself, but it wouldn’t come out.
    “Yes?” He arched a questioning eyebrow.
    “You saw the books. You know.” Why couldn’t he end her misery?
    “Yes, but do you?” She nodded vigorously, but he still pressed. “Then say it, or we leave , and I take you home.” He stepped back, leaving her cold and wanting.
    “No wait!” she wailed, shaking with need.
    “Then say it!” he growled, catching her chin in his big hand and forcing her to meet his intense gaze.
    Danny panted. She’d stepped so far out of her comfort zone. Did she dare take this final step? God, how could she not? She could stop breathing more easily than she could let him go. Licking her lips, she felt herself drowning in his ocean-blue gaze, and the words flowed from her.
    “I want to be dominated.”

Chapter Six

    Gabe inhaled deeply as the words slid from her reluctant lips. He wanted to shout his triumph. He was dominant by nature and had been having a hell of a time taking things slow with her. He’d slipped a few times and was surprised he hadn’t scared her to death. He’d always planned to ease her into the darker side of his passion, but then he’d discovered her secret, hidden treasure of BDSM erotica. He’d nearly come on the spot! As it was, he’d ended up jacking off in her shower, picturing her on her knees in front of him, her hot little mouth engulfing his cock. He never dared to dream it could be possible that she was into kink just as much as him. He’d never admitted it to his former fiancée, keeping his activities to clubs and resorts that catered to alternative lifestyles and specialized in discretion. It still blew his mind that as innocent as Danny was, she seemed so open to his vices.
    He forced himself to step back. Now he was the one gulping for air, especially when she whimpered at the loss of his nearness. “Baby, we need to set some ground rules before things get out of hand, and I end up shoving my dick in your mouth.” He’d meant to shock her, keep her on edge, but to his dismay or delight, he wasn’t sure which, she grinned.
    “I like the sound of that.”
    Lord, she was going to be the death of him, but Jesus, what a way to spend your final moments. Shaking his head to clear it of the lusty thoughts threatening to take total control, he started over. “Okay here’s how it works, when it comes to the bedroom or anything sexual, I’m in charge. Plain and simple.”
    “Actually it’s not really that simple,” she countered. “It’s the complexity of the situation that makes it so appealing.”
    He frowned. He loved her quick wit and sassy mouth, but right now he didn’t need the temptation when it was taking everything he had to control his baser desires. “Exactly what’s that supposed to mean?”
    “Exactly what I said, it’s more complex than simple black-and-white. Yes, you have control, but only because I allow it.”
    He choked. “You allow?” She seemed to be missing the entire concept.
    “Think about it, Gabe, if I say ‘no,’ and I mean really no, like safeword no, you’d stop what you were doing, wouldn’t you?”
    “Of course,” Gabe scowled, offended that she’d even have to ask. He’d never hurt her. It wasn’t the pain that he got off on. It was taking things to the edge, to that fine line between pleasure and pain.
    She nodded and smiled.
