Peter loved Kate with all his being, but that didn't mean he'd tolerate an ultimatum from her.
Reading this material at Work could get you spanked.
Welcome to the Saturday Spankings blog hop. My stories are all M/f with the dominant male determined to protect the woman he cares for and loves, or grows to love, by doing whatever it takes to ensure her safety and continued health. This includes administering a spanking when she needs one.
My submission for this week is from my third spanking romance titled, Acting Lessons. I haven't shared from this book for over three years, so it's time.
He was a strict and demanding college professor turned professional director who excelled at giving acting lessons. She was his shy and uncertain former student who became a professional actress under his tutelage. They fell in love, married, and won two Tony Awards before tragedy struck and a simple kiss ripped them apart.
After a six month separation, Peter Thorton decides to take matters into his own hands by making his famous wife, Kate, an offer she wouldn't refuse. Plainly put, he wants her back and he intends to do whatever is necessary to achieve his goal, even if it means giving his stubborn, willful leading lady a daily reminder over his knee that she promised to obey him.
Setup: After injuring her knee and spending a few hours in the hospital, Kate ends up sleeping in Peter's bed. He's taken very good care of her and she's torn between allowing him to continue leading the dance they've started, or leaving before she gets hurt again. Her heart is still bruised and tender and she's not entirely sure she trusts her ex-husband not to hurt her again. Though he's warned her to call him before she gets out of bed, Kate decides she needs to be less dependent on him, and more self-reliant. However, she didn't expect to get caught. Though Peter is not above teaching Kate a lesson, he chooses instead to carry her over to the breakfast table set up in their bedroom. Peter waits until she's had her fill before he addresses Kate's disobedience the day before by asking her why she won't simply admit she'd been jealous. Kate admits that she may have acted out on purpose, but that doesn't mean she wants him to punish her for it. Peter disagrees saying her actions were a deliberate challenge, and ignoring it would be doing both of them a disservice, however, Kate still hesitates.
"What
about my knee?"
"It's
wrapped right now, so it is protected. If we're careful, this shouldn't hurt it
at all."
"Maybe
we should wait until after I've seen the doctor?"
Peter
lowered his hand. "If you insist we do that, we will. However, I would
prefer we get this over with now. I can think of many far more pleasant things
I would like to do with you, but I refuse to go down that path until we've
gotten this out of the way first."
Despite
her uneasiness, his words infused Kate with warmth that had nothing to do with
embarrassment and she took another step closer. "Do you have a specific
number in mind?"
"No,
but because of your knee it won't be as long or painful as it probably should
be." He raised his hand to her again. "However, if you delay much
longer, I may need to remind you that your obedience to me isn't
conditional."
She
shook her head. "We aren't married any longer. Not really. Our divorce
will be final in two days, so my vow to obey you is no longer valid."
Straightening
his shoulders, Peter frowned up at her. "I believe, my love, that you just
lied to me with that statement, and I will require another confession from
you."
