Tell them you can’t play right now because you’re in trouble. The mild embarrassment of that would just drive her higher. Even if he couldn’t actually get her to say it.
Her eyes flashed. We’re not playing. We were talking.
Oh, she was really asking for it tonight. He grabbed her shoulder, not hard enough to hurt, but enough to mean business.
She glared at him, then turned to Ash. I can’t play right now because I’m in trouble because my Daddy is an asshole.
Ash’s eyes sparkled merrily.
Bedroom. Now.
She jerked away.
He put up a hand to stop her. First you will politely tell Zhong goodnight. He doesn’t need to know how disobedient you’re being.
She stalked toward the kitchen, but her posture changed when she crossed the threshold. Zhong wasn’t really involved in this and she wouldn’t make him feel uncomfortable. Plus, he’d given her a good way to navigate the social situation without slipping completely out of her role.
He heard mixed laughter from the kitchen and figured the two of them were doing alright.
He turned back to Ash, noticing the flutter of their pulse at the pale skin of their neck. He wondered for the first time what it would be like to kiss them there.
It was a very different thought from doing naughty things with a nameless sub, churning up all kinds of conflicting feelings.
Ash looked up at him. Sorry, Sir. Just signing the word, a flick of two fingers at their forehead, turned everything into more of a scene.
Dustin sucked in a breath. Ash calling him Sir was… very, very new. And hot. Their attitude was so different from Lena’s, all sweetness and sincere apology. Of course, it was still another form of playing.
I know you’re being good, he reassured them, feeling the weight of the words. It was just a little thing, but now he was complimenting them like he was their Dom.
I’m very good for my Daddy… they promised. And mostly good the rest of the time, they added coyly.
Dustin’s own pulse pounded in his ears. Was that a request? Or just their usual flirting gone one step further? Now he was thinking of bending them over his lap for a good, hard spanking. It truly wasn’t the time though. Maybe you’d like to set up a playdate with Lena? he asked, still not quite sure what he was thinking.
Ash sucked in a breath. Maybe. Can I think about it? Ash looked toward the kitchen, where Dustin could still hear Zhong putting things away and most likely signing with Lena.
Of course.
Sometimes I flirt when I don’t mean anything by it… Ash suggested.
And sometimes you flirt when you do? Dustin finished for them.
Yeah. You two are hot together, Ash added, lips parted in arousal as they breathed over their curled fingers opening outward.
That’s all Lena. It was something they could probably both agree on. This whole thing had started when Lena discovered that Ash had a crush on her.
No, you’re a good Daddy.
Dustin’s heart beat faster, thoughts all churning over each other. It was a huge compliment, especially since Lena confided to Ash, and they’d been around the kink scene for so long. But it was also just thrilling hearing them say it.
Thank you. Let me know if the flirting gets to be too much. Or you don’t like where it’s going.
Ash laughed. Ha! Never. But I know how to step out of a situation or safeword if I need to.
Good, Dustin praised them. That’s important. Just knowing that Ash was thinking about safewords was exciting.
Yes, Sir.
God. The things Ash was doing to him…
