Lucian – Fiona Cole

My brows furrowed as I looked closer, searching for signs of how it made me feel, because when I turned inward, conflicting emotions pulled me in opposite directions, threatening to rip me in half. Part of me remembered this feeling. I remembered how much I liked it. Another part remembered the plummeting sensation when the eagerness, hope, and joy were ripped away. I remembered never wanting to feel that again. I remembered promising myself I wouldn’t. But I’d never been in a situation that came close to making me even think about those feelings.

I never allowed myself to. Until Aspen. Standing there, finding hints of my old self felt a lot like reaching into the fire, hoping to not get burned. No. No. I stepped away. I couldn’t get burned if I never got close enough. Shaking myself back to reality, I combed my fingers through my hair and pulled my shoulders back, slipping into the calm, control of a Dominant. I had a submissive who’d performed beautifully tonight.

It was my job to take care of her after—nothing more. All the rushing around had nothing to do with feelings and everything to do with the relationship we agreed upon. Despite my bravado, my heart still thundered in my chest when I found her curled into a ball with her eyes closed, clutching the pillow to her chest as if searching for something to hold onto to keep herself grounded.

She complained when I pried the pillow from her grip, but I assured her she didn’t need the pillow when I was right there. “Okay,” she murmured, wrapping her arms around my neck as I scooped her up and carried her to the bathroom. “I’m going to undress you now,” I explained, sitting her on the bathroom counter. While I didn’t explain myself when we played, I knew how much she liked knowing what came next, so I took the time to tell her about each step in aftercare.

It helped her relax and avoid spiraling into sub drop. Her amber eyes locked on mine as I bared her soft skin and lush curves.

About the Author Also by Fiona Cole OceanofPDF.com F CHAPTER 1 LUCIAN or the third time in an hour, I looked up from the report, pretending the dry facts were to blame and not the hope of seeing Aspen walk through the door. I should have stayed at the office, but as the minutes had ticked by, the collar of my shirt grew tighter until I had to remove my tie.

Yet, I struggled to sit still, eyeing the clock in anticipation of the day’s end. By two, I gave up and headed home, promising Vic, my right-hand man, that I’d take the reports he’d collected and go over them. When he quirked his brow, unused to me leaving early, I’d explained it away as needing a change of scenery, unwilling to admit that I was heading home so I could be here when Aspen arrived.

I didn’t want to sound like I was eager to welcome her home like some loving husband—because I wasn’t. Despite having dreamed of that life before Emily doused me with a bucket of cold reality, I didn’t crave that kind of naïve domesticity anymore, like I had growing up. No, if anything, I wanted to be here when she arrived to ensure she returned—and stayed. Not just to collect her belongings and walk out.

After our argument the night before, doubts plagued me.
