Chapter Three

Natalie spent the rest of the day trying to push the images out of her head of what happened, she would of been better off just losing her virginity to Cris, she hated that now she felt uncomfortable being around him, But she also knew that now she had a bigger problem, she wanted this case even if it meant being around John, this was gonna be her big break and she would be damned if she had ruined her chance..

It was Friday and she had already called her uncle and gave him some lame excuse that he bought about her needing time off from work, she had a little over two weeks and she took the whole time, she was gonna turn all of this into a positive, she would use herself for bait and prove herself to everyone..

It was only noon now as she took the address she had of the club, it was over by where he lived and she took one last look in the mirror, this time she doned just a simple pair of low ride jeans, a tank top and a pair of flip flops, she headed out..

John made his way through the club, his employees had done a good job cleaning the place up, he went to the bar and began checking his inventory, his mind still wasnt with it, he heard the familiar ring of the door in the front and he glanced at the clock wondering who would be coming by this early, it was only 12:30 in the afternoon, he put down his piece of paper and headed toward the lobby..

Natalie stood nervously in the lobby of the club, oddly enough from here it looked like a typical office, it had a receptionist desk and a few couches set up, she didnt really know where to go from here, she contemplated knocking on the large wooden doors ahead and she walked over to them but as she neared them they opened..

"were not open right now" john began and then stopped in his tracks when he saw her standing there.."Natalie...what are you doing here" he asked with shock, she was the last person he was expecting to see..

"i said i was gonna do this undercover thing" she said a bit nervously as she stood there, her hands on her hips as he looked at her, she had her hair down today and she was dressed more casual but still as gorgeous as ever, he noted to himself..

"I kind of thought that after last night" he began and she rolled her eyes..

"we had a deal" she said quickly..

"this isnt going to work" he said honestly..

"i already took my vacation time from work" she snapped at him..

"well i really wish you wouldnt of done that Natalie" he began and she huffed..

"so your basically telling me that since you couldnt sleep with me that now im not good enough for the case?" she said bluntly and he was a bit surprised by her attitude towards him, this definitely wasnt the same girl who was all goo goo eyed over him..

"Umm" he was literally speechless.."im just kind of thinking that maybe" he began and she sighed heavily..

"Listen just forget about what happened yesterday, i have" she said quickly.

"I just dont think your good for the job ok" he finally said..

"why? I wanna know why" she stared at him, she was getting mad at him, why was he being such an asshole!

"cause i say so, i dont know what to tell you" he shook his head.

"well how about this, either you keep me on this case or i run to my father and tell him that you took advantage of me" he looked at her shocked, honestly she shocked herself by saying that but this case meant that much to her, she rarely if ever resorted to using her Buchanan name to get what she wanted but considering the situation she made an exception..

"are you blackmailing me" he asked with shock, he couldnt believe what he was hearing..

"I guess i am" she swallowed hard..

"wow" he said in shock as he ran his hand through his hair and he began to pace..

Natalie was slowly losing her nerve, she honestly didnt know what to do next if he said no cause she wasnt seriously gonna tell her father that would be suicide but she kept a straight face as she stood there, hoping he wouldnt call her bluff..

"i really cant believe your gonna do this, i mean... blackmail...wow.." he said again, he was truly in shock, all the scenerios filled his head, and all of them lead to him being arrested or mauled by the entire Buchanan clan.."your really gonna force my hand in this?"

Natalie stood there with her poker face on and just nodded yes cause she didnt trust herself to say anything else..

"Unbelievable" he said as his blood began to boil.."give me a minute" he said as he walked back through the double doors and then Natalie heard what sounded like chairs and tables being thrown against the wall, and then cursing was heard, she jumped a few times not knowing what to expect, he was literally trashing his own place, after a few minutes he walked back out..."fine" he snapped coldly.."we start today, no bitching, no whining, you do as i say and nothing more, got it" he looked angry but she was in, she nodded her head.."You blow this case for me and i will personally go to your father" he said angrily as he walked to the double doors.."are you just gonna stand there, lets go!" he barked at her and she hurried up behind him, she could do this she kept telling herself..

He was beyond livid,he had never been blackmailed before and by her, he hadnt seen it coming and he surely didnt expect it even after what happened last night but he knew what he had to do, he had to make this so hard on her that she would just up and leave and thats exactlly what he planned on doing, two could play at this game!

John wasnt about to pull any punches, if she was gonna blackmail him for the part in this case then she would learn quick what an asshole he could be..

"this is my club, this is my rules, everyone and i mean everyone does what i say even the other dominant males in here, what i say goes, got it" he looked at her hard..

"sure" she said nervously..

"good, so to start things off when ever your around me in this club you refer to me as" he began and she rolled her eyes, she had done some research at home in the morning, she wasnt about to go in blindly..

"Master" she said dryly..

"WRONG, I am not your Master, nor have you earned the right to call me that, it's Sir, always Sir" he barked at her and she swallowed hard.."you dont walk in front of me, and you dont speak unless i ask you too, you dont look at anyone and you definitely dont speak to anyone, got it?"

"yes" she said low...

"Might as well start now Natalie, yes what?" he stared at her..

She thought for a second.."Yes Sir" she smirked a little..

"this aint funny, and it aint a joke, you wanna end up dead?" he yelled,she shook her head no at him.."then cut the bullshit and get your head in the game, you wanna do this then you do this!" he began walking around as she stood there.."you wont dress like that here, you wear what i tell you to wear" he said as he looked at her..

"dont you think your being just a little" she began, i mean he was being a bit ridiculous with all of this..

"a little what? Huh.. say it" he said coldly...

"a little ridiculous, ok i said it" she spoke but immediately regretted her choice of words..

"People who live this lifestyle dont find it ridiculous at all, this is there choice and since you are so adament about being part of this, well its your lifestyle as well, so get use to it" he walked away from her, he was getting really angry, he needed space.."BDSM is about allowing someone else to control or give you control of their life, this place is a safe place to do just that, people dont just walk into this blindly they live it, they crave it, they need it to survive, its not to be mocked" she nodded her head at him and he just looked at her..

"Yes Sir" she sighed..

"see that kind of defiance right there would be worthy of being chained up, maybe even whipped unless thats the game your playing here, wanna see how far you can push me?" he said with a kind of seriousness to his voice that it made her stop breathing for a second.."you play with me then you play with fire" she some how felt as though he wasnt lying.."everyone has a safe word, i think ours should be bitch since it seems fitting at the moment" she gasped at his choice of words, this was unbelievable.."do you have a problem with that" he grinned sarcastically at her..

She bite her tongue.." NO Sir" she spat at him..

"Now your my submissive, which means you came to me to help you release your true self, you want to be controlled by me, you get off by being controlled by me" he began to walk up to her and she swallowed hard.."there are ground rules, ones we dont cross, how far are you willing to let yourself go?" he asked her as he stood in front of her, he could see she was falling apart at the seams, it wouldnt be much longer before she would be running for the hills..

He continued with his ranting for another two hours, he hadnt even let her sit yet as he paced around her, giving her the ups and downs of the lifestyle, he stayed cold the entire time, she hated to admit it but this was becoming more than she bargained for and now she was just plain exhausted as she stood there, his words were beginning to blend together cause he just wouldnt shut up and then he kept quizzing her, she wanted to drop to the floor..

He explained to her about Carlo Hesser and what he had to do with all of this, her eyes grew wide when she began to fully understand the shit she got herself into cause if Mitch did fall for this and picked her, well she would be taken to him to be auctioned off, and even though John reassured her that he would be there with her at all times, well the idea was frightening to say the least..

He had eventually gave her a piece of paper and chair to sit down, she was grateful for that but then he gave her a list of things to memorize, she felt like she was back in school again but this time her teacher was nothing but a mean jerk, still damn handsome but a jerk no less, he gave her a list of clothes to buy, down to the panties she would be wearing and he finished it off with telling her she had to call him at 9pm sharp to tell him what she had accomplished..

He sent her on her way without as much as a goodbye and then she was running around to the stores like a lunatic buying these damn clothes and hoping she didnt run into anyone from her neighborhood, she wasnt ready for this, he wasnt being nice about any of it, apparently he was still upset about the blackmailing thing but she assumed he would eventually get over it, she knew he was just lashing out, he couldnt be that bad of a guy, he just couldnt be!

To say John was frustrated would be an understatement, he had tried to break her down with his words and nothing, she held on, he was pissed and annoyed and oddly impressed cause he definitely didnt think she had it in her, his mind kept going back to the night before, he knew he could never touch her like that again even though he wanted to, her body was off limits to him, atleast in that way, if they were gonna pull this off then it would be nothing but professional, nothing more...

Natalie got home after a day full of shopping, she was truly exhausted, so much so that when she flopped on her couch she fell asleep, like really asleep..It wasnt until her phone began ringing that she began to stir some, she groaned and hit her phone, thinking it was her alarm clock, but it kept ringing, she grabbed it and with a drowsy half asleep voice she answered.."hello?"

"It's 9:05" she heard a male voice say and she groaned..

"yeah and...who is this" she said half asleep...

"seriously thats the way your going to answer me" she opened her eyes not and huffed loud..

"listen i am tired i had a long day ok" she began to whine, she wasnt in the mood for this.

"Your gonna make me come over there, maybe you will respect me then" he said as a threat and she opened her eyes now..

"what?" she began to sit up but then the phone went dead.."you've got to be kidding me" she said with a sigh as she now fully sat up on the couch and yawned, she moved slowly into the kitchen, grabbing a cup of coffee..

It was only about 20 min before she heard her door bell ring and she sat straight up, had he found her house? She sat there and ignored it but now he began knocking and she got up, this shit had to stop, she swung open the door and he pushed right past her..

"You think this is a joke, when i ask something of you, YOU DO IT!" he said with a grin on his face, he was gonna end this once and for all tonight..

"seriously John i think your going a bit overboard" she began as he shook his head and then glanced at the bags of clothes on the floor..

"try them on" he said as he looked at her..

"what? Now?" she said with shock..

"right here, right now" he kept his stare on her..

"i think you have been undercover way too long" she said sarcastically at him but when she picked up the bags, he grabbed them from her hand...

"No, right here" he grinned as her eyes got wide..

"You want me to change in front of you" she couldnt believe he was asking her this..

"do i stutter, If you cant do something as simple as change your clothes in front of me then this is not going to work" he cocked his head back..

She knew exactlly what he was doing, he was trying to make her give up, well she had no intention.."fine.." she snapped at him as she quickly yanked her tank top off and he was shocked to say the least, then she yanked down her jeans and he swallowed hard now as he backed himself towards a chair, she saw the way he was looking at her, he may not admit it but he was definitely getting off on this, now she knew she was the one in control of the situation and she was gonna make him squirm, she leaned over to the bag, making sure to bend her ass in his direction as she picked through the clothes and he held in a groan, the boy shorts she had on made her ass look perfect, he grew harder in his pants..

She smiled as she grabbed a blue top and itty bitty blue skirt, it was a mock police officers uniform and she kept her back turned from him as she slipped the skirt on and then she turned to face him as she slid the shirt over her shoulders and began buttoning it up, she hated to admit it but standing there in front of him, dressing for him, well it was pretty erotic, she left a few buttons undone so that her cleavage was damn near busting out..

"so?" she smiled, she knew she had him, he wasnt such a tough guy after all..

John couldnt speak as he looked at her, hell he couldnt move either, his cock was painfully hard, he had to remind himself that he was the one in control here, but before he could say anything a sound was heard, like a key going into the door knob and they both turned their heads..

"Hey sweetie its your mom and dad" she heard her parents say and she nearly died as she stood there, and so did John cause before either of them could take off running her parents walked in the room and the look on their faces was priceless..
