The rumble of my deep voice calmed her and I felt her muscles relax.
"You wanted him to kiss you, didn't you." I stated calmly, trying to keep a tight hold on my emotions.
I know how Paul feels about Bella and he knows how I feel about her. They had such a strong friendship and I worried sometimes that she wanted him instead of me. He wouldn't force her to submit, Paul loves a challenge. He craves a woman who will control him, force him to submit. Though Bella's a natural submissive, she's got a fiery side to her that I've noticed arouses most of the guys in the pack. It's like they all want a piece of her. It would break me to know Bella craved the love and attentions of another man...Especially one who is my brother.
It probably doesn't help that I love to be watched fucking her and they get to stare at her in her most vulnerable positions. At first I was nervous about introducing her to my dominant side. I knew it had always been there but to introduce someone else to it? To let them witness me in that vulnerable way? A part of me that I'd always kept hidden was now exposed not only to every pack wolf via the mind link, but now to Bella herself and I was thankful she hadn't shied away from it. In fact she'd loved it. Thrived off of being watched. Craved being dominated.
I was shaken from my musings by Bella's insistent head shake. Her muscles had stiffened again and I know she's expecting me to be angry with her. I could never. Even if she wanted to get out of this engagement, out of the submissive life, I would be devastated but I would never hold her prisoner. Bella plays this so perfectly. She knew better than to talk unless I ordered it. This lifestyle of ours wasn't our norm. We planned our play out to the T and when it was planned, we stuck with it regardless of what happens in our lives.
"You didn't want him to kiss you?" I ask as I carry her toward what I deemed as her chair. It sat to the right of mine at the head of the table.
Another adamant headshake.
"Hmm." I hummed a bit, thoughtfully.
Dinner was getting cold so I set her down in her chair and allowed her to use her hands to eat.
"I'm trying to figure out why you would allow it then." It irritated me that she was just sitting there but I also know that if she'd stopped him, broken her part, then I would have been mad also. I sighed heavily as the answer hit me square between the eyes and I loaded my fork. "You were trying to please me?"
An adamant head nod came this time and I smiled. Bella always did what she thought I wanted, even if she didn't.
