Maggie Carpenter is here today to share an excerpt from her Ancient World erotic romance "Her Barbarian Master: Forbidden Love," the second book in her Alpha Male Master series.
He stopped, and craning her neck she
was able to see him pushing open a tall dark wooden door. He didn’t
have to bend down to pass through it, and the room they entered was far grander
than any she’d ever imagined. The furniture was
made from rough wood, but the room was expansive and boasted a huge bed covered
in fur, a wide table with several seats, and a fireplace with furry pelts
covering the floor directly in front of it. She was expecting him to sit down
and bend her over his lap, and she nervously waited, but he continued to move
around the room carrying her over his shoulder, apparently searching for something.
“Can you please put me down?”
She had used her soft, pleading
voice, the one that had worked surprisingly well with Bastian, and was always
effective with her parents.
“I have yet to punish you.”
“I don’t understand.”
“Hush, you will, ah, there it is.”
He leaned slightly forward, and
though her vantage point didn’t allow her to see what he was
picking up, a moment later a hard piece of wood was laying against the full
width of her bottom.
“What you feel is my punishment
paddle. It is what I use to discipline my women, and now it will discipline
you. I would advise you not to put your hands behind you. Usually I tie the
wrists before putting a woman over my shoulder, but perhaps it is good you’re
not bound. You will learn to obey.”
“Obey?”
“If you do not do as I tell you, and
try to use your hands to cover your backside, the paddle will hit your
knuckles. Nothing stops me from swatting once I begin.”
“But, uh, how long will you—?”
“Three turns, beginning now.”
Serenity had no idea what he’d
meant by three turns, and she didn’t have time to ask. The paddle
abruptly landed with its hot sting, and letting out a loud yelp, it took all
her fortitude not to throw her arms behind her and grab her seat. As he stepped
forward he spanked her again, and she urgently clutched his shirt. The paddle
struck once more, and this time she squirmed in his hold.
“OWWW, please, stop, it hurts.”
He didn’t
respond, but continued his slow walk, swinging the paddle with each stride. The
rhythm was steady, and though the predictability helped, it did nothing to
mitigate the searing heat permeating her backside. Squeezing her eyes shut, she
cried loudly with every swat, until at last he stopped.
“That was one turn,” he declared. “You’ll
have a moment then I shall resume.”
Opening her eyes, she looked around
and discovered he’d stopped where he’d
started; a turn was a circle of his room.
“Two more? No, please, no. I can’t
bear it.”
“You must. You have no choice, but the
second turn I will be using my hand.”
He moved the few steps to the table
and set down the paddle, and though she felt a shred of relief, it was
short-lived. To her horror he began sliding up her dress.
“NO! Do not bare me, please, no, sir,
no.”
“Sir? The wench is learning, but when
I punish, you must call me Master.”
“Master, please don’t expose me.”
“Had you not been so rude and
difficult, I wouldn’t. You
deserve it.”
Blurb:
Serenity has just crossed a line. In an attempt to defend her best friend, the free-spirited,
flaxen-haired young woman has challenged the leader of the Bathus, a clan of
barbarians that live in a castle ruin above her tiny village.
The leader's son, Killian, decides to
chastise her with a sound spanking, and
throwing her over his shoulder he carries her away to be punished. Serenity,
however, is made of tough stuff. Even with a stinging backside she is unafraid,
and yelling her fury she storms off, leaving him stunned and in disbelief.
But when the anger fades, she can't
stop thinking about him.
A short time later a rival clan
attacks and they are thrown together. Their
smoldering chemistry flames, but in the heat of their blazing passion they
uncover a diabolical plot that threatens their lives, and the future of the
entire clan.
"Storytelling at its best!"
The love story is amazing, dangerous,
and full of ups and downs. The humor is laugh out loud funny. A sizzling romance full of danger,
sprinkled with humor, and an action-packed plot that will keep you guessing.
