Crime & Punishment 2: Master Delacroix by Trista Ann Michaels Read Free Book Online

about Dad.
    His thoughts moved to Connelly and that thick, shoulder-length, strawberry-blonde hair. It curled into small ringlets that he imagined would wrap around his finger and be soft as silk. She was an older woman, maybe in her late thirties. He’d always liked older women, especially ones that took as good care of themselves as this one did. They didn’t have all the drama around them that the younger ones had. They knew what they wanted, were more settled and confident.
    Connelly had a lot of confidence, but there was also a vulnerability about her. She and Nathan looked good together. Nathan seemed more relaxed right now than Daniel had seen him since arriving.
    His brother ran the back of his finger over Connelly’s cheek, making her flush a light pink. Daniel smiled slightly. He and Nathan had seduced women together before. Lots of times in their younger years, but because Daniel knew so little about this world Nathan played in, he felt an awful lot like a third wheel.
     
    NATHAN NOTICED HIS brother’s frown. Why was he here? He’d never expressed an interest in this sort of stuff before. Why now?
    Connelly needed to be in the forefront of his thoughts. When he played with a woman, he didn’t want any distractions, and his brother was a distraction.
    Grabbing Connelly’s chin, he turned her to face him. Her cheeks were flushed, and in this light, her eyes were a beautiful shade of dark blue. He wouldn’t call her gorgeous, but there was something about her that had him spellbound. Something he couldn’t quite put his finger on.
    He might not be able to touch that, but he could touch her and right now, he had a sudden desire to do so.
    “Come here, Connelly,” he murmured as he pushed away from the bar and turned to put his back to it.
    Connelly tilted her head, and her brow wrinkled slightly in hesitation.
    “I want you to stand in front of me. I’m going to get you used to my touch and a little bondage.”
    Her pupils dilated, and Nathan’s heart did a little jerk. Something had her excited, but was it his touch or the anticipation of bondage?
    Connelly moved to stand in front of him. Nathan raised his hand and slowly pushed the collar of her blouse aside, allowing him to see her cleavage. He traced the edge of her bra, enjoying the warmth of her flesh beneath his touch. He heard, as well as felt, her shallow intake of breath. Her arousal came across to him like a burning fire, threatening to engulf him. Keeping things slow tonight would be hell. His cock was already hard as a rock. Feeling his desire as well as hers was like a sensory overload.
    “Move behind her, Daniel,” Nathan said quietly. If his brother was going to watch, he may as well put Daniel to use.
    She started to glance at Daniel over her shoulder, but Nathan caught her chin, pulling her gaze back to his. “Eyes on me, pet. Your eyes are always on your Dom unless he tells you otherwise. Understand?”
    She swallowed, then gave a single nod.
    “When I ask you a question, you must answer it with words, Connelly. And always end with Master.”
    She licked her full, kissable lips, and Nathan’s cock twitched behind his slacks. “Yes, Master,” she whispered.
    Daniel put his hands at her waist and slid them slowly up along her ribs while Nathan undid the buttons of her blouse. When she realized he intended to remove her top, she raised her hands to stop him, but he shook his head. He could sense her hesitation, her discomfort with being on display. Exhibitionism was something she would need to get used to if she planned to play here.
    At his firm look, Connelly stopped, her hands frozen on his wrists. Her touch was like fire, warm and tingling against his skin.
    “You will be naked,” he said softly.
    Her mouth dropped open just a tad, and her whole body flushed an adorable shade of deep pink.
    “Does that bother you?” he asked, although he already knew the answer.
    She moved her gaze around the room, giving a quick glance to
