The Commander's Daughter Page 6

  Liam left her in the corner for thirty minutes, leaving her to focus on the plug in her bottom fully before he finished her punishment. Melody groaned every time she shifted, causing the plug to move inside her.

  Melody walked to him stiltedly when he called her from the corner, making her awareness of the plug very obvious.

  “Now you will bend over the back of the chair and place your hands in the seat. If you stay in position, I will give you fifteen with the paddle and then finish with ten from the strap. If you get out of position, swats will be added with both. You will find it best to stay where I have put you.”

  She did as he asked, her toes barely touching the floor when she put her hands flat on the seat of the chair, leaving her bottom arched high for his chastisement.

  There weren’t words to describe how the paddle felt when the first lick caught her right on the under-curve of her bottom, flattening the rounded cheeks and sharply jolting the base of the plug, only to leave and return in the exact same place with the same sharp force.

  By the third swat, Melody was yelping loudly; by the tenth, she was howling. When the last swat fell, she could only sob miserably at the sweltering inferno that was her poor beleaguered bottom. Liam had applied each and every swat to her sit spot; she would feel it every time she sat for days.

  Liam left her in place over the back of the chair, but rubbed her back soothingly as she calmed. “You have done very well, little mate. We are almost finished.”

  * * *

  He left her and returned with the strap; part of him wanted to take mercy on her, but Liam knew it was important he deliver every swat he promised. He took a deep breath and steeled himself to finish what he’d started.

  The ten with the strap were completed quickly; he didn’t feel the need to swing the strap very hard as her very well-punished bottom would have felt even the lightest of strokes keenly. He also kept the strokes of the strap to the tops of her thighs, thinking the rest of her bottom had suffered enough.

  Liam knew well the line of fire the strap left behind had a bite no less than that of the paddle, but it stung in a different way, as the heat seemed to grow. He brought the strap down quickly so she barely had any time to react to one stroke before the next fell, and then it was over and Liam cuddled her into his broad chest.

  She whimpered in protest when he sat down in the chair again and placed her over his knees, but he stroked her back soothingly before spreading her bottom cheeks apart once again then gently removing the plug and dropping it on the towel at his feet to deal with later. The moment he was finished, he turned her in his arms and cradled her to his chest as he stood.

  He whispered soft loving words to her as he held her, lying down on the bed with her and wrapping his big body around hers in an effort to give her as much comfort as possible.

  Melody snuggled into his chest, crying out all of the fear and confusion of the last several days. He knew she was truly contrite for her behavior; as the tears dried on her cheeks and her eyes grew heavy, she pressed herself as deeply into his warmth as she could get. “I’m sorry, Liam.”

  She was asleep almost before the words had completely left her lips. Liam pressed a gentle kiss to her brow and pulled the covers over both of them, content for the moment to be going to sleep with his little mate held tight in his arms.

  It wasn’t the best beginning to their bonding, but it was definitely a start.

  Chapter Seven

  Melody woke, rolling to her back, then hissing as her sore bottom touched the bed, bringing the previous night’s punishment back in vivid detail. She quickly rolled off the bed, putting as little pressure as possible on her poor posterior.

  As she stood, Melody realized she was in a totally unfamiliar room. Finding nothing in the way of clothing to cover her nakedness, she grabbed the blanket from the bed and wrapped it around herself before heading out the other door to find someone to tell her where she was.

  Liam walked in before she got to the door. “Good, you’re awake.” He immediately came to her and hugged her close, placing a kiss on the top of her head.

  “Where are we?” she asked, nervously chewing on her full bottom lip.

  “Your parents gave us the use of their cabin. We are here to complete the bonding and learn each other, little mate,” Liam explained.

  Melody backed away from him with a shake of her head. “No, you promised me a few weeks; it hasn’t even been one!”

  “I should never have agreed to wait, Melody. Giving you time has not been the kindness your parents thought it would be; it has merely given you too much time to worry about the bonding and our life together.”

  She glared at him. “You lied to me! You said I would have time! I want to go home!”

  “Your home is now wherever I am, little mate; best you resign yourself to this.” His quiet words, though softly spoken, had an underlying thread of steel.

  “You still lied! How can I ever trust you? You’re a liar!” Her accusation rang loudly in the room.

  “You would do well to consider your wording, young lady. I did not lie; I agreed to wait because your parents convinced me it was in your best interest, but since then I’ve seen it is not. I will never lie to you, little mate, but what I think is best may change given the situation presented and I will always do what is best for you in the long run. What is best for our bonding,” Liam explained.

  Melody sneered at him. “What’s best for you! I doubt I even factor into the equation!”

  “I am quickly losing patience with your attitude, Melody. I thought we’d covered your attitude fairly well last night, but perhaps I was not thorough enough,” he said, raising a brow meaningfully in her direction.

  She gasped and immediately covered her bottom with both hands. He started toward her again as Melody retreated with his every step until her back was against the wall and she could go no further.

  Liam walked up to her and cupped her face in his hands as he looked down at her. “Little mate, you are always the only factor in the equation,” he told her fiercely before taking her mouth with his own.

  Melody mewled in distress as his lips nibbled on her own, a sharp little nip to her lower lip bringing forth a gasp and opening her to his invasion. He stormed her mouth like a conquering army invading and laying claim to everything in his path.

  She could do nothing to fight the tide of passion welling within her breast, suddenly needing him and everything he could provide as much as the air she breathed. Of her own accord her hands crept up his chest to wrap in the hair at the nape of his neck as she kissed him back with everything in her. Their tongues began a duel, stroking along each other as if to ferret out any secrets the other could be holding back.

  By the time Liam’s mouth left hers, Melody could do nothing but cling to him as his lips traveled a path from her jawline down the sensitive column of her neck, leaving a trail of fire in its wake. She tilted her head helplessly to give him better access.

  She barely noticed when the blanket was undone from around her breasts and dropped to the floor. His hands each cupped a breast, stroking his thumbs across her distended nipples as she arched her back, needing more.

  Liam was happy to oblige; dropping to his knees before her, he sucked her left nipple deeply into his mouth, sucking hard as he used his fingers on her other breast and nipple, rolling it between his fingers and tweaking it sharply.

  Melody clutched frantically at the back of his head, whimpering with need. He released the nipple with a loud popping sound, then took the other between his lips to give it the same treatment. She was soon moving her legs restlessly against him searching for more.

  * * *

  Liam stood, lifting her high in his arms, not relinquishing his strong suction on her nipple as he carried her to the bed. He finally released her as he lay her down, immediately catching her legs beneath her knees and opening her wide to him. Kneeling between her thighs, he looked up her body, enjoying the sight of her full breasts now crown
ed with bright red nipples swollen from his attentions.

  “My beautiful mate,” he said softly before bringing his mouth to the treasure between her thighs, the touch of his tongue lapping along the tender wet crease, wringing his name from her lips. “You’re so wet; is this for me, little mate?”

  Melody whimpered as the teasing forays of his tongue suddenly stopped as he waited for her response. “Yes, Liam. Only for you! Please…”

  Liam sank two fingers deep inside her as far as they could go with one sharp thrust as he worried her little clit with his tongue and teeth; she immediately exploded around his fingers with a gasping scream, but he showed no mercy as he began to pump them in and out of her hot channel hard, never taking his mouth from the little bud that was quickly swelling up, demanding more of his attentions.

  Liam stood, holding the gaze of his little mate as he quickly stripped the clothing from his body before moving back to his place between her thighs.

  He enjoyed the hungry look in her passion-bright green eyes as he bent his head to taste her once more.

  He sucked the little bud deeply into his mouth as he spread his fingers apart within her, gently stretching her as he continued to move them within her, her body locked down on his fingers as she came again with a keening cry.

  Liam removed his fingers from her needy little opening and replaced them with his tongue, needing to taste her, his thumb strumming over her clit, stroking up and around it in tight little circles as he took her hard with his tongue.

  Melody began to lift her hips, obviously eager to meet every thrust of his tongue, wanting more. Just as her body began to tighten once more, Liam surged up her body, hooking her knees with his elbows, and fitted his aching shaft to her grasping opening.

  Staring into her eyes, he began to press slowly inside, seeming to barely take an inch before backing out and coming back in just a little more.

  * * *

  Liam was so big and the stretching burned, but a needy ache was taking precedence and Melody wanted him in all the way. “Please, Liam! Hurry!”

  “No, little mate, the first time will come only once and I plan to savor every inch of you,” he vowed, clenching his teeth and holding her tightly, preventing her from moving her hips. Liam continued with his slow teasing thrusts, conquering her an inch at a time before gliding slowly back out and back in to take a little more until he was against the membrane that shielded her innocence.

  Melody’s hands moved restlessly and she closed her eyes against the overwhelming sensations bombarding her.

  “You will look at me!”

  Unable to resist the command in his voice, her eyes sprang back open and she found herself trapped by the warm chocolate of his eyes. The moment he pressed through her maidenhead brought a tiny pinch of pain that was overshadowed by a need to be completely filled by him as the continued slow glide of his thrusts drove her mad with need.

  Melody couldn’t believe how full she felt, stretched beyond capacity, but still with every return thrust he filled her more, her sheath continuing to stretch and burn as it accommodated his girth and tried to take his length.

  * * *

  Liam couldn’t look away from her eyes, emerald bright with passion. He wanted so badly to thrust all the way home, but knew he was very large even by Ramelian standards, and since he wanted this first taking to ensure only pleasure for his little mate, slow was the only way to go, even if it drove them both mad.

  When Liam finally felt his balls slap against her entrance, he froze for a moment, pressing his forehead against hers, and he gained control.

  As he stilled inside her, he felt another warm rush of her fluid come down to bathe him in its wet heat and ease his way. Melody began to move her head restlessly, her body quivering beneath him in need.

  “Liam, please… please… I need to move!”

  Kissing her deeply, Liam withdrew almost completely and drove back inside to the hilt in one powerful thrust, groaning aloud at the intense pleasure of their joining. Finding he could hold back no longer, he began taking her in long hard thrusts, enjoying the feel of her sheath rippling all around him in pleasure.

  She was moaning constantly now, whispering encouragement as he took her in an ever increasing rhythm. Harder and faster he began to move until she spasmed around him and he followed her over into the abyss.

  * * *

  Melody had barely recovered when Liam withdrew his still hard member and flipped her onto her stomach. “I don’t think I’m ready for…”

  “I’ll be the judge of that; you’ll take everything I have to give, little mate.” Liam positioned her on her knees with her thighs widely splayed and pressed between her shoulder blades until her chest and face were flat against the bed.

  She nearly came off the bed when he parted her nether lips wide and his tongue thrust deep into her still hot channel. “You will stay in position.” A firm swat to each bottom cheek told her what would happen if she moved again, then Liam’s delicious tongue was back to teasing her aching entrance.

  He played a teasing game with the tip of his tongue rimming her, then plunging deep inside, then coming back out to chase the nectar along her folds before sinking deep once again.

  Soon Melody was begging for release, while little mewls of pleasure broke from her lips, but still the teasing continued. Using just his thumbs, Liam stretched her open almost to the point of discomfort, but it also intensified the feel of his talented tongue. He alternated between tapping it lightly across her clit and thrusting it forcefully inside her, rubbing it firmly against every surface he could reach.

  When she began grinding into his face, Liam pulled the flesh around her opening even tighter, holding her fast and using his tongue to take her sheath in a hard and fast motion until she came apart under his hands and tongue.

  Liam rose behind her on the bed and thrust his thick waiting cock into her pulsing depths with one hard thrust until his balls where pressed against the seam of their bodies. He was still a very tight fit, but he slid in easily because she was sopping wet from his loving.

  His hands still held her apart at her bottom cheeks. Holding her spread, he started a pounding rhythm, pulling all the way out and slamming back inside until his balls bounced against her tight little clit.

  Melody could only moan as he took her body by storm, loving the feel of him slamming into her from behind. She found she could not only take everything he had to give, but she kept begging for more. After she came around him twice with her bottom cheeks and nether lips held apart, he released her only to bring one hand around and place two fingers on either side of her clit, pressing down so the bottom of her clit rode his cock with every thrust, and then pressed it back into his fingers, causing it to be abraded from three sides.

  Her already swollen clit seemed to pulse and grow with every thrust until Melody was wailing mindlessly as she seemed to shoot from one orgasm straight into another.

  She sighed in relief as he took his fingers from her sensitive clit, but she began to whimper when two well-lubed fingers pushed slowly but surely into her bottom hole, as he continued to power his shaft in and out in hard, short thrusts. She couldn’t believe how different it felt to have his fingers inside her back hole now compared to when he had punished her with the butt plug. Though the plug had been disturbingly arousing, it had embarrassed her. This was different. The feel of his fingers gliding in and out of her made her even wetter and she reveled in the feeling.

  When his fingers were seated all the way inside her, Liam changed the angle of his thrusts to find that sweet spot deep inside; when he found it, Melody began to buck against him as he wriggled his fingers around until it seemed like his fingers and cock were hitting the exact same spot inside her simultaneously.

  Liam continued to work her hard, then brought the fingers of his other hand back to pinch lightly at her clit. That was all it took and Melody came apart all around him, in a full body orgasm that seemed to convulse all the way down to her toes.<
br />
  Melody screamed her pleasure and collapsed to the bed with a gushing rush of fluid all around Liam’s still driving cock.

  Only his strength held her up as he continued to ride her to his own completion. Melody was a boneless heap on the bed and could do nothing but whimper when he pulled out of her sore and beyond sated body.

  * * *

  Liam pulled his exhausted mate into his arms, shushing her softly with kisses to her brow when she whimpered in protest. He cradled her to his chest as he ran a warm bath, then set her body down in the gently swirling bubbles.

  She sighed with pleasure as the warm water soothed her tender areas, relaxing into the water, falling asleep cocooned in its warmth.

  Liam grinned when he came back from changing their bed and found his little mate sound asleep in the bath. He tenderly washed her, then picked her up carefully, drying her with a fluffy warm towel. She slept on, blissfully unaware of his tender ministrations. He’d worn her out.

  Placing his precious burden naked on the bed, Liam closed the blinds to cloak their room in darkness. When he climbed in next to Melody, he sighed with pleasure as she instinctively snuggled into him in her sleep.

  Curling his big body protectively around hers, Liam sank into a deep peaceful sleep for the first time since he’d met his mate, finally able to relax now that she’d been claimed.

  Chapter Eight

  Melody stretched languidly as she woke, enjoying the almost pleasurable aches in her body. Reaching a toe out behind her on the bed, she felt for Liam’s warm body; she sat up with a frown when she realized he wasn’t there.

  Looking out the window, she realized night had fallen while they were in bed. Smiling, she rose, wondering where they were. When she looked out the window and spotted the lake and meadow about 200 yards from the house, she knew exactly where they were.
