He shook his head
– there was something hot and predatory flashing in those dark eyes. He
watched
her
as
her lips moved and
she almost uttered the word but before the sound could escape
into the room
he’d fixed a gag
tightly
around her mouth. She couldn’t say anything at all now,
well nothing he’d be able to decipher,
he
thought with a
chuckle.
He
tore
the flogger from her body ignoring her muffled scream
s
. He trailed the
soft, silky
tails over her body – slowly, sensuously. The feeling was pleasant, Gina thought – almost ticklish. But then raising it high
, and with some power behind it,
he lashed at her breasts catching her sensitive peaks
with the knots
and that didn’t tickle at all.
Another
lash – this time between her spread thighs
and another
muffled
shriek but Matthew
continued to ignore her protest
s
and continued to lash
– he
knew
the truth
. H
e knew she really
loved
each
cruel,
dark stroke
he delivered.
At last h
e
stopped
. He was hard again
-
his penis thick and erect
and he stroked it admiringly. H
earing her screams and seeing her discomfort had done its work beautifully.
T
hrowing the flogger
to the floor
He looked up at her face, her
beautiful,
blue eyes fearful, pleading with him to stop this.
He gave her another small, cold smile and thrust
into
her
-
burying
his erection deep inside her
sex
. She arc
hed her back in utter bliss,
she couldn’t help it,
it was an automatic reaction
to him
–
and, as was now becoming the norm,
she
climaxed almost insta
ntly.
But Matthew didn’t stop he
pushed into her with slow, deep
moves. Pulling out and plunging in again
–
each time
filling her,
using her
to
stroke his penis into the ecstatic state he needed. She mewled with pleasure and
with
pain – she was still bruised from the rough way he’d taken her yesterday. But Matthew didn’t care – he was intent on his own pleasure and he knew that having ejaculated
before
that he would last.
Gina closed her eyes, she’d climaxed once but she was too sore now to climax again – for the first time with Matthew she just wanted this to be over.
His demands on her body were becoming too much, too e
xcessive
.
She was still gagged
and retrained
– she couldn’t stop him – so she closed her eyes and screamed silently with each and every thrust. Finally she felt nothing – she seemed
distant
–
as if she was
somewhere else.
He was stroking her face.
“
Y
ou
wield
a strange power over me, my sweet,”
Matthew
whispered and
kiss
ed
her lips lightly. Gina was surprised
, surprised enough to gather her wits and realise that he’d finished and had freed her from
both the gag and
the restraints
.
‘A strange power
?
’
Coming from him that was some admission.
“
And you think that makes it all okay
then,” she
challenged
rubbing her stiff wrists and ankles. “Will you ever be content to just go to bed and make love
to me in a normal way
, Matthew,” she asked him critically.
Matthew
shook his head and kissed her again. “I doubt it – that’s not what I’m like and anyway vanilla isn’t your
flavour either, Gina,” he told her knowingly. “You need sex this way and you need
it with
me,” he added confidently.
“
I don’t think so,” she insisted. “I allow this – allow you to do these things to me because I’m
.”
She
bit back
the words that were on the tip of her tongue
just in time
. She had been about to say
‘that I’m in love with you’,
but
had held
back at the last second.
“That I’m perfectly happy to have sex with you
so there’s no need to tie me up
.
” Were what came out instead. Admitting love or any caring emotion to Matthew Dark would
probably
just be a waste of time.
“Yes I know you are, but I want to do this
. You don’t get it, do you
?
The truth is I get off on making a girl helpless
, doing stuff to her while she can’t stop me
and then screwing her
hard
.
You might find that disgusting or uncomfortable Gina – but it’s who I am.
”
At that moment Matthew’s cell phone rang and leaning ac
ross the bench
he picked it up and answered it. He rose and pulled his shorts back on and then paced up and down the floor talking quietly to whoever it was. His face was serious and his tone hard – trouble, Gina decided and shivered. This time
, thankfully,
it had nothing to do with her.
Matthew was missing that afternoon. Once she’d showered and changed Conrad delivered a message from him in his usual courteous way.
“Mr Dark had business to see to in
Genoa
,” he told her. “He does expect to be back for dinner though. He suggests that I drive you into
Portofino
and that perhaps you do a little
shopping.”
It was only ten minutes walk into town so she certainly didn’t need a lift. But perhaps Matthew still didn’t trust her – didn’t want
to
leav
e her
to her own devices all afternoon.
“Mr Dark has left his credit card and instructions for you to purchase anything you might like,” he coughed. “If that sounds agreeable, Miss, then I am to accompany you.”
Her instincts were right – he didn’t trust her. Conrad was nothing more than some sort of gaoler – credit card or no credit card.
“I’m just going to sit in the sun,
work on my tan
thanks,” she smiled. “So no need to hang around waiting for me,” she told him.
“As you wish, Miss, but I’m here should you need anything.”
With that Conrad left and investigating a few minutes later Gina heard him in the garage outside tinkering under the bonnet of one of Matthew’s cars.
It would be a long afternoon without him but perhaps it was her opportunity to look a little closer at her surroundings and think again about that escape plan. She was just about to wander around the garden when she heard a female voice call out.
“Matthew. Matthew,”
the voice
called. “Are you here, darling?”
The voice was deep, Italian and the hairs on the back of Gina’s neck prickled as she realised who it was and just moments before Lisa teetered into the sitting room dressed to kill and in yet more ultra high heels.
“Ah, the English Miss,” she said giving Gina a distinct
ly
chilly smile. “So he
did bring
you here
– I thought as much
? That
confirms that
you’re nothing more than chamber fodder to him. Am I right?” She beamed knowingly.
Gina was stunned - she’d no idea what to say in reply. After all,
her attitude might stink but
the woman was right.
“So you are his new sub – well
I’m not surprised. When I saw you the night of Benito’s birthday I could see you were
the type he likes to
play with
in
that way.”
Then s
he swept off through the villa first looking in the kitchen and then peering in the bedrooms.
“Matthew isn’t here,” Gina told her when she returned. “Business called so I’m told.”
“How long are you staying here?” She demanded. “
You do know that you are in danger, Miss Deverell,” she told her firmly? “And you needn’t think this is just the ravings of some jealous ex wife either. I’m over Matthew and I don’t envy any woman who falls under his spell, believe me.”
Gina shook her head. “Matthew isn’t dangerous. He wouldn’t hurt me – not really hurt me,” she replied with growing doubt and saw Lisa’s self satisfied smile.
“He’s probably hurt you already.
I know what he does and how he operates.
All his talk of you being in control – of you having your safeword and then…” she paused
,
watching Gina flush. “And then gagging you
so
tight so you can’t use it,” she added confidently. “I know him, Gina. I was married to him, remember.”
Gina sat down on the sofa – had he done those same things to her?
“I know what you must be thinking – but no – I was his wife, I was never his sub. And that Gina is the difference between us and why I know
everything about Matthew
. I never let him restrain me or use those things
he has
and I never let him fuck me in that room of his
either
.” She paused
, her own face flushed
with emotion. She still loved him, Gina thought.
“How did he get you here?
Do something dreadful did you? Let me guess
-
you found whatever it is Dark Electronics is developing in his penthouse that night and he
found out and
blackmailed you into coming here
with him
?”
Gina nodded, this woman was amazing.
“Except
that
you didn’t – he lied to you.”
“I don’t know what you mean – I did find something and like you said
,
the new product,” she insisted but she then realised she probably shouldn’t have
told her this – after all she was the sister of Matthew’s biggest rival
.
“No you didn’t Gina. You found a rather snazzy tablet computer and plans to manufacture and sell it cheap.”
Gina stared at her wide eyed. That’s exactly what she
’d
found.
“He tricked you.
But h
e was
really
trying to trick me – well
Benito
. I was suppose to find it, tell my brother who would instantly go into manufacture himself in order to beat Matthew to market, cut his prices and make a huge loss. Planet stock would have plummeted. So you see, Gina
,
you did Benito a favour that night and this – bringing you here is just Matthew’s revenge for spoiling his plans.”
“You could be lying,” Gina levelled at her. “All of this could just be an elaborate ploy to find out what I know.”
Lisa tapped a number into her cell phone and handed it to her.
“Your step mother, Grace Deverell, she knows the truth,” she said handing her the phone.
Gina spoke to Grace and listened
carefully
as she told her more about Kyle Hastings’s visit and what he’d told her. She believed him and apparently Kyle had been able to offer some documentation as proof.
“Dark Electronics brought that tablet out at that price months ago, Gina,” she confirmed. “Lisa is going to help you to come home. So please trust her and do as she says.”
Gina looked at Lisa – why would she want to help her?
“Benito,” she nodded. “Benito insists I get you out of here and far away from Matthew
so he can’t hurt you anymore
.
Gina nodded – she wanted to cry – to fly at Lisa and call her a liar but she couldn’t. Grace believed them and deep inside so did Gina now.
