Brie Discerns Master's Heart (After Graduation, #6) by Red Phoenix Read Free Book Online Page A

Sir’s direction for guidance. He did not speak, but nodded slightly.
    “Okay… Todd.”
    Faelan sat back in his chair and snorted. “That’s only a slight improvement.”
    She wasn’t willing to argue the point, so she forged ahead. “The reason we are here is to—”
    “No, that’s not how this is going to play out,” he stated firmly as he took over. “As you know, I have lived in darkness most of my adult life. The guilt of killing someone has eaten at me like a cancer.”
    Brie replied compassionately, “But it was just an acciden—”
    He held up his hand. “There’s no point in continuing that line of thought, Brie. I’ve talked to a counselor and I’m not about to rehash it with you.”
    She looked down at her lap but immediately looked back up, realizing she was subconsciously falling into the submissive role with him.
    “That day… The day you fell into my arms I finally saw a spark of hope. You were a light in the suffocating darkness consuming me.” Faelan grinned at her. “I can’t explain why, but there was an instant connection made I’ve never felt before.” He leaned forward and asked her, “What did you feel that day?”
    Brie took a deep breath before she began. Sir had instructed her to be honest, so she kept that her primary goal. “I was grateful that you saved me from a bad fall and I thought you had nice eyes. Honestly, I felt nothing more than that.”
    Faelan sat back and nodded. “When I saw you tied up later, while I was jogging on the beach, I almost lost it. I thought you were being kidnapped and raped.”
    Brie blushed. “That was an awkward moment for both of us.” She looked upon Faelan with empathy. “But I appreciate that you were trying to help.”
    “I will never forget the sight of you, Brie. Knowing that you were naked under that robe when you came to the door. Seeing you caress the collar around your neck… The possessive way the Russian lorded over you.” Faelan paused. “That was the beginning of a new life for me.”
    Brie interjected, “I didn’t feel that way, Todd. In fact, I didn’t realize who you were until the cops were about to leave.”
    “You felt no connection, not even then?”
    She shook her head. “Not even when you formally introduced yourself the next day. All I could think was that you were the last thing I needed.”
    He looked at her intently. “You needed a Dom, that’s why I fell under the radar. As soon as I realized what you were, I understood what you required. Since that day, I have endeavored to become the man you needed.”
    Brie felt a twinge of guilt. “I never asked you to.”
    “You say that, but I know the first time we scened together you felt the connection, Brie. Don’t deny it. Don’t you dare deny it in front of these two men.”
    She gazed into his blue eyes, not shying away from her answer. “Yes, I admit it. You surprised me that day. I was impressed by you, despite my reservations.”
    “That’s because I understand who you are, Brie. Yet, it’s more than that. You and I are cut from the same cloth. We’re both young and adventurous. We both hide an animal that no one else sees.”
    This time Brie looked away. It was true; there was a side of herself that only Faelan seemed to bring out. It was a side that was wild and dangerous.
    He continued, “After our scene, with every interaction you were playful and inviting. Especially when I had to punish you and your two girlfriends.”
    It was embarrassing to have him bring that up in front of Sir. Brie shifted in her seat, remembering quite well the night he’d commanded she use her vibrator for a half hour without orgasming. It had been a long and frustrating night, which had only served to make her desire the young wolf more. “It was an unfair punishment,” she responded.
    His eyes sparkled mischievously. “I thought of you that night, Brie. Thought of your glistening, wet pussy struggling not to come because I commanded it.”
