Gavin's Submissives (5 page)

Inhaling the warm air, she walked down the street gazing
into the windows of the variety of shops. She passed the diner, along with
books shops and a small supermarket. At the end of the first street a sex shop
was on the street corner. Several women walked out of the shop giggling. The
sight of the shop reminded her why she was in the main town of
Creek
Valley
.
Crossing the street she went into the diner and took the seat near the window.

She ordered a coffee before returning her gaze to the sex
shop outside. Derek liked to tell her how bad she was at sex. She wasn’t
desirable enough and couldn’t suck cock the way he liked. Shaking her head, she
sipped the coffee the woman brought to her.

“Well, I’ll be damned. Heidi Larson is back in the flesh,” a
woman said.

Turning in the direction of the noise she saw a woman the
same age as herself with a swollen stomach coming toward her. The blonde woman
looked familiar.

“Wendy?” Heidi asked. For some reason she felt the woman was
a Wendy.

Hands on hips the woman glared down at her. “No. Patricia
Mead.”

She remembered the woman. They had gone to high-school
together when she’d lived in town. Heidi smiled at the woman. “Have a seat. I
remember you now. You used to be on the chess club.”

Patricia smiled. “I’m not Mead now. I’m
Nickleson
.
I married Bernard, and this is our second child.” She rubbed her stomach.

“It’s nice to meet you, and congratulations on the second
baby.” Heidi signalled the waitress.

“What are you doing here?” Patricia asked.

“I’m back. I’m staying with Landon and Gavin. They own the
ranch on the outskirts of town. I’m waiting for my house to be finished before
I move in.” Heidi explained her situation.

“Now those two men are hot stuff. Wish I’d caught their eye.
No, not really. Gavin is too dominant for me. I love my Bernard. He goes easy
on me.”

Heidi caught up with the woman and promised to stop by at
some point. In about twenty minutes she was alone with her thoughts. Gazing
outside, she watched as Bernard came to pick up his wife. The love on the guy’s
face was clear to see. He stared at her and gave her a wave.

Heidi watched as he kissed Patricia deeply before helping
her into the passenger side of a truck. A small boy poked his head out. She
couldn’t help but laugh. The love on display made her yearn for something
similar. What she’d experienced with Derek was anything but love. Letting out a
sigh, she ordered a burger with fries along with another coffee. Gavin’s words
came back to her.

“I want you
to think about what I’ve said. We both want you, Heidi. This is not a game or
some cruel joke. Neither Landon nor
myself
are
anything like your fuck-head of an ex. We’ll take care of you, and you’ll want
for nothing.”

His words were so tempting. What he promised made her want to
give in and take what he offered. She’d been married to Derek, and all he’d
given her was trouble.

Picking up the burger she took a bite. Three people walked
into the diner. Both men were hugging and kissing one woman. The giggles and
sighs made her watch them wondering how she’d feel to be on the receiving end
of such lust.

Wait, two men
to one woman.

She watched them pass. No one was paying the three any
attention. Heidi finished her food then made her way out to the truck. The sun
was going down, and she wanted to be near the ranch before darkness claimed the
tiny town. She drove on the road thinking about Gavin’s words along with what
she’d witnessed that afternoon.

The ranch was just up ahead. She parked on the road staring
up ahead at the future.

“No man would
ever want you. You’re a fat waste of space.”

Closing her eyes, she cut off the spiteful comments. Derek
was well known for his nastiness.

“Come on, Heidi. The answer is looking you right in the
face.”

Night had fallen by the time she started the engine. She
drove into the front driveway. Gavin and Landon charged out of the house. Both
men looked ready to commit murder. Landon had the driver’s door open and was
pulling her out of the truck.

“Where have you been? We were worried about you,” Landon
said. His voice was filled with anger.

“I was just up the road.” She pointed behind her at the
darkened road.

“Rule number one, never, ever, wait until darkness to get
home. You find some way of getting in touch with us, do you understand?” Gavin
said, moving forward to take her in his arms. His large arms surrounded her.

She stared up into his face. He looked relieved.

“I’m sorry. I’m not used to having someone care for me,” she
said.

Derek never once checked up on her. If she was late home
then she was late. He wasn’t going to look after her.

“I didn’t mean to scare either of you.”

They escorted her in the house. “We were ready to call the
sheriff and have a search put out.”

Heidi laughed. “I wasn’t gone.”

“It’s not a laughing matter.” Gavin paused, taking a deep
breath.

Chapter Four

The moment darkness descended, Gavin had thought the worst.
He wasn’t a heartless bastard, and he cared about her even though he’d not
known her for very long. Pouring some milk over grated chocolate, he gave the
mixture a stir, poured it into a cup, then passed it to her.

“I’m really sorry for giving you a scare,” she said.

He’d not been able to handle talking to her much longer.
Gavin was struggling to rein in his temper. The Dom inside him wanted to punish
her. He wished to take her over his knee so she’d know exactly what she’d done
to him.

Do it. Show her
who the boss is.

She doesn’t
think anyone cares about her.

Show her!

Taking the drink from her fingers, Gavin took the seat next
to her. “I’m only going to tell you this once,” he said.

He tapped his knee. “Get over, now.”

“Gavin—”

Cutting Landon off, he helped Heidi over his knee.

“I think this is really unnecessary,” she said. She
struggled over his knee. Her tits pressed against his thigh. Placing a hand
over her back he caressed her buttocks.

“I never gave you permission to be insolent. We want you to
be with us, Heidi. This is how it’s going to be. You either follow my rules or
you get punished. You scared the shit out of me, and that’s unacceptable. From
now on you consider your safety first. I don’t give a shit what Derek did
before. When you’re with us, you’ll do as you’re told.”

He didn’t give her time to answer. Gavin raised his hand and
brought his palm against her ass. She yelped. He continued to rain blows on her
denim-covered ass. There was no way he’d allow Landon to get away with such
insolence. He wouldn’t allow his woman to get away with it either.

“I’m sorry,” she said, crying out.

After he’d slapped her ass ten times he pulled her up. Gavin
stood, cupping her cheek. “You’re important to me. I never want to hear or see
you put yourself in danger. You’ll consider your safety first. Otherwise I’ll
do far worse than spank your ass, do you understand?” he asked.

She nodded.

He waited to make sure she understood before pulling her
into his arms. Resting his face against her neck Gavin breathed in her lovely
scent.

“I’m sorry,” she said, again.

“Stop saying that word. I’ll know you’ve learned your lesson
so long as you don’t do it again.”

“Okay.”

“You’ll sit here while I make you some food. Don’t move,” he
said.

Gavin placed her on the seat then moved toward the kitchen.
Landon followed close behind him.

“I suggest you keep your anger inside, Landon. I’m not in
the mood to deal with more of your insolence tonight.” He warned his man.

“I’m not here to cause trouble. I’m pleased you did it. She
scared me.” Landon grew silent.

“What are you thinking?” Gavin asked.

“What do you think she’s decided?”

Letting out a sigh, Gavin made up a peanut butter and jelly
sandwich. “I don’t know. I’m sure she’ll tell us her decision soon.”

They moved back to where she sat on the sofa. Her face was
flushed. From the buds of her nipples, he guessed some of the flush was down to
arousal. Heidi might not know it yet, but she was submissive at heart.

He handed her a plate. “Eat.”

She started eating without further instruction. Gavin
watched her eat. His chest felt tight at the emotion swamping him. He’d been
concerned for her. The instant the sun went down, panic filled him. Didn’t she
have any idea how important she was?

Shaking his head, Gavin stared into the empty fireplace. The
summer nights were not cold enough to light a fire. He and Landon spent a great
many winter nights making love in front of a roaring fire.

Heidi put the plate on the coffee table. “I’ve finished,”
she said.

Staring into her hazel eyes, Gavin felt himself drowning in
her gaze. He saw Landon’s attraction. She was hypnotising to watch.

“Did today help?” he asked.

“Yes. I noticed some things around
Creek
Valley
that I’d never seen before.”

“What?” he asked.

“There was a woman at the diner. She came in, and two men
were kissing her. No one paid any attention to her.”

“That would be Diana. She’s with the two Martin brothers,”
Landon said. “A lot of things have changed around here since you last visited.
Ménage relationships are the norm, or at least, they are here.”

“I don’t care about those, Heidi. I want to know what
decision you’ve come to.”

She let out a breath.

Tapping his thigh Gavin’s patience
started to go with every passing second.

“I’d like to give it a try. I mean, I’ve got nothing to lose,
but I think I should be honest with you guys about something.” She licked her
lips. His gaze went to her mouth. The plump lips looked so damned inviting.

“What?” he asked.

“I’m not very good in the bedroom. I mean, Derek was never
satisfied with me in bed. I’m going to disappoint you. I don’t want you to
expect something from me only to be upset that you’ve settled on me. I’ve never
been able to let go.”

Gavin pressed a finger to her lips. “Shut up. If Derek said
you were horrid in the bedroom, he was the one responsible, not you. Did you
have an orgasm before him?”

“Yes.” Tears filled her eyes. “He didn’t like to touch me. I
needed to take care of my own needs. When it looked like he was never going to
touch me I stopped trying.”

“How long has it been since you achieved orgasm?” Gavin
asked.

Landon cursed.

“Two years,” she said. Her voice was so small. He cupped her
cheek.

“Baby, you won’t be going two days without release. I
promise your needs will be well met.”

The tears fell from her eyes. “I’m sorry,” she said.

He held her in his arms. If Derek ever came around he’d beat
the little shit to a bloody pulp.

****

Seeing Heidi sob in Gavin’s arms was enough for Landon. He
despised her ex, but watching the pain in her eyes was too much. No matter what
she said Landon would show her how important she was to him. Moving behind her,
he stroked her back. She turned to him.

“Come here, baby,” he said.

She went into his arms. He let her cry. Stroking her back he
saw the same anger in Gavin’s eyes. His master, lover, and friend
was
as angry as he.

“We’ll take care of her.” Gavin mouthed the words to him.

“He was a piece of shit, Heidi. He didn’t deserve you. I
never liked him.”

“I should have listened to you.”

He’d advised her not to get married to the bastard.

“We live and learn, baby. I’m here, and he’ll never get
chance to get near you. I love you too damn much to let him get close.”

She pulled back. There was a smile across her lips. “I like
the sound of not going longer than two days without an orgasm,” she said.

“Your wish is our very command,” Gavin said. “First, I need
to punish Landon for his insolence.”

“Are you ready for this?” Landon asked. He was turned on at
the thought of Gavin going all dominant on his ass.

Heidi stroked his cheek. “I’ll be ready for you both,” she
said.

“Then follow me,” Gavin said. Landon kept his hand locked in
hers on the way upstairs to their bedroom. “You’re to sit on the bed, Heidi.
I’ll get to you soon.”

Landon watched her ass as she climbed onto the bed. She
looked so damn tempting. He couldn’t wait to sink into her tight
cunt
. She’d have a lovely tight pussy.
