She grinned.
The walk inside was full of discomfort. Getting up the stairs was the worst and he knew he had an entire flight of them to conquer in order to reach Grace’s bedroom. He didn’t object when she took his coat and hung it up for him. The only thing he could think about was sitting down and getting the pressure off his leg.
“I think I have some wine in the kitchen.”
“That sounds great.”
She nodded and hurried down the hall, leaving him alone.
He made his way into the living room, albeit slowly, and lowered himself onto the couch. Grace appeared a few moments later with two glasses of wine.
“Thanks,” he said, taking one.
“You’re welcome.” Grace sat down beside him, folding her legs up beside her.
Alexander placed an arm around her shoulders and hugged her against his side as he took a sip of his wine. It wasn’t his preferred drink, but it would do well enough to take the edge off the pain. Hopefully enough that he’d be able to get up the stairs and into her bed.
They sat there quietly, drinking the wine and talking until Grace started to yawn. “We should probably get you up to bed.”
She smiled up at him. “And I still owe you a massage.”
He drew her face closer, bringing her in for a kiss. “Why don’t you go and get things ready? I’ll be up in a few minutes.”
For a moment, he thought she was going to protest, but then she nodded and stood. “I’ll be waiting for you, Sir.”

Chapter 25
As it turned out, the exact charm Alexander wanted for Grace’s collar wasn’t in stock, which meant it wasn’t ready by the weekend. She wondered if he would forgo going to the club, but in the end they went. For the most part, they socialized. Alexander thought it was important for Grace to get comfortable with the club. She began to understand why when Katrina stopped by their group Saturday night.
“Were you still interested in me doing the demonstration we talked about?” Alexander asked during a lull in the conversation.
“Of course.” Katrina glanced over at Grace, an amused glint in her eye that Grace immediately recognized. It was the look Dominants got when they were about to push their sub’s limits “Just let me know when and what you’ll need. I’ll make sure everything’s set up and ready to go.”
“I was thinking sometime next month. Maybe a week or so before Christmas.”
“Perfect.”
The rest of the conversation consisted of somewhat vague talk of tables and toys, along with an exchange of emails. Grace had no idea what type of demonstration they were taking about, but she had a feeling she was going to find out. All the demonstrations she’d ever witnessed, which granted weren’t many, included a submissive. Since she was Alexander’s sub, Grace imagined she’d be filling that spot. He didn’t say anything for the rest of the evening and the conversation shifted to more mundane topics.
On the drive home, Grace expected him to bring up the subject again, but he didn’t. He didn’t bring it up the next day either. So Sunday night as they were lying in bed, she broached the subject. “Last night you were talking to Katrina about a demonstration.”
“Yes.” She could hear the smile in his voice even though she couldn’t see his face.
“What kind of demonstration does she want you to do?”
He rolled them both over so he was looking down at her. “She’s asked me to do a demonstration on medical play.”
It only took a moment for Grace to realize what that meant for her. As anxious as she was about it, she could already feel herself getting wet at the thought of him doing things to her while everyone watched. She really was an exhibitionist. “What will I have to do?”
A smirk appeared on his face. “You’re going to be my patient.” He paused. “My very naughty patient.”
She felt her body temperature rise a few degrees.
Alexander skimmed his lips along her jaw to her ear. “Do you trust me?”
That was easy. “Yes.”
