#6BestHop - 8/14/16 - A Dom's Dilemma - Kelly reluctantly submits #BDSM #MedicalPlay

He demanded her obedience, but what she wanted was his love.

It's the last day of January and Sunday's Six of the Best again. That means I get to share another 6 paragraphs from one of my books.  Yay!

My submission for this week is from my 4th book, A Dom's Dilemma, a BDSM/spanking novel that is sometimes playful, sometimes serious and sometimes terrifying, published by Blushing Books.  Kelly and Jim, the two main characters, were secondary characters in Arrested by Love.  Though this story stands on its own, if you read Arrested by Love, you'll most likely recognize some of the scenes, since we see a little bit of Kyle and Tiffany in this book, too.

In this excerpt, near the end of Chapter Five, Jim Evans and Kelly Franklin are together at "The Velvet Chains," a BDSM club where they met that evening.  Kelly is receiving some aftercare after a session of intensive medical play she did with Jim that seemed a lot more real than play.  Aftercare is an important part of the BDSM experience.  Both the Dom and the sub seek reassurance from the other.  Jim enjoys holding Kelly, and she likes being in his arms, so this is a quiet period of reflection and getting to know each other. Problem is, when Jim asks Kelly a question she really doesn't want to answer, her evasion serves as an admission she's lied to him.

Normally, a Dom would punish a sub for that infraction, but Jim has told Kelly he'll give her a onetime pass. Before they do anything else, however, he suggests they get to know each other a little better.  He begins by asking her some pertinent questions, which eventually lead to the topic of trust.  When Kelly admits that she probably trusts him more not to hurt her than anyone else, he's pleased, but remains cautious.  He informs her, in no uncertain terms, that he can be a controlling SOB who expects a lot, but he gives back in return.  If she chooses to remain as his sub, he'll expect her to be open and honest with about everything in her life. Even those things she might not want to share, but for the moment he's content to simply know more about her life until she admits she's still sore. Jim promptly takes her to task for not telling him earlier.

             He doubted her face could have looked more dismayed.  "Would I have to go back to the medical station, Sir?" she asked, her voice soft and uncertain even as her nose wrinkled with obvious distaste.  He gave the offending member a firm tap.

            "You have to do whatever I say.  It's as simple as that, sub."

            "Yes, Sir," she replied, laying her head against his chest and watching him warily.

            "Better."  He gave her an approving nod.  "Now, as it happens, I think I've got everything I'll need in my pocket already.  The lighting here is far from ideal, but if you want to risk it, I can examine you through feel and reaction.  Fair warnin' though, doin' that will probably make my inspection more painful."

            "May I stay seated on your lap and keep my blanket on, Sir?"

            Jim started to shake his head, then reconsidered.  "You goin' shy on me, Kelly girl?"

Kelly knows she makes a lousy sub.  She has a temper and a mouth that constantly get her into trouble, but she sees something in Jim that makes her want more of the type of mastering only he could give her, except she's not sure she can give him all the honesty he expects in return.
