WIP: Work in progress. WIP it up Wednesday is a hop where writers share portions of the project they're working on with readers. I really like the idea because it allows me to share something that's still in the creative stage as well as work behind the scenes as a prompt to keep me writing. However, today I've decided to also share from my first spanking novel "Arrested by Love"
In Arrested by Love, Kyle and Tiffany have been having problems, but they are attempting a reconciliation after Kyle basically kidnapped her from her home, with her father's grudging approval, and taken her to see a doctor. Tiffany had become very ill during their separation and Kyle is determined to take care of her in every way she needs. Though Tiffany isn't a true submissive, she is trying to smooth things over with Kyle, so she's working hard to keep her bratty tendencies at bay. However, there's only so much a girl can do.
He groaned.
"Just get dressed, or put your nightie back on. You can even take a shower if you want, but
you are far too tempting by half when you're nude, and I'm determined not to
tax your strength with erotic hanky-panky until you're rested."
The smile she gave him in response made him think she
intended to sorely test his resolve in that respect, which also gave him the
feeling that this was one battle he was going to end up losing--most willingly.
When Tiffany showed up with wet hair at the breakfast table
dressed in summer shorts and a t-shirt that said "Drugs are My Life,"
Kyle recalled why he'd been so angry with her earlier. He knew the reference on her shirt had to do
with working at Dorman Pharmaceuticals, but it still didn't sit well with
him. Telling himself he was being
unfair, he offered her his choice of cereals.
She picked the shredded wheat. "And I'm ready to kill someone for a cup
of coffee," she admitted with a grin.
He smiled back.
"Unfortunately, both murder and coffee are off your agenda for
awhile."
Her face fell.
"Why? I'll only get a
headache if you won't let me have any."
"A headache is a small price to pay, considering
caffeine intake is ill-advised for pregnant women. It's not good for the baby."
Kyle could tell by her mutinous expression that he'd said
the wrong thing, but had no intention of backpedaling on this one.
