I was glad when he thought about it for a moment and didn’t rush to give me the answer he thought I wanted, but waiting was difficult…and hard…and it made me squirmy. But the nerves it brought up chased the last of my little side away with all the big questions, so that was one good part.
As we finally approached my house, Daddy let out a breath. “I think we’re just going to have to take it one day at a time. I have to admit, it was weird hearing you call me Gray. I realize that’s my name, so it shouldn’t be weird, but it was.”
I couldn’t help but laugh. “It was.”
But as nice as it was to say, I couldn’t call him Daddy all the time.
“How about we do more grown-up dates and focus on developing the—I don’t have the right word—but the traditional side of our relationship?” He looked over when I snickered. “It was a better choice than regular or normal.”
“You’re not wrong. It was just cute.” Squeezing his hand, I let go so he could turn onto my street. “I think that’s a good idea.”
As he parked the car and turned it off, he went quiet. After a moment, he relaxed back in the seat. “Okay, how about we find a way to reward you when you use my name? That way it builds up a positive connection for you and maybe even a submissive one.”
“I like rewards.” Big me and little me liked rewards. “Are we talking cookies or not cookie based?”
He laughed and leaned over to give me a quick peck. “Not cookie based. I’m thinking very not cookie based.”
Oh…
“Did I mention I like rewards and positive reinforcement?” Yep, I should remind him about that.
Several times.
Chapter Nine
Gray
I was still thinking about all the interesting ways I could give him positive reinforcement as we got inside, and judging by the way he was very cuddly and very grown-up, he was too. All trace of little had faded as naughty thoughts took over, but he was still just as cute as he snuggled up to me as soon as the door closed.
“What kind of rewards would I get for being a good grown-up and calling you Gray?” He was so excited about the idea of being rewarded he hadn’t even tripped over my name.
Yep, rewards it would be.
“I’m not going to tell you.” Setting the groceries on the floor since they wouldn’t spoil, I wrapped my arms around him as I leaned back against the door and gave him a gentle kiss. “But I’ll make sure they’re very memorable rewards.”
This was something I wouldn’t have to google to make sure I was doing it right.
He pouted, this time aiming for naughty and manipulative instead of cute and manipulative. “You like teasing too much.”
Chuckling, I gave his sexy ass a quick smack. “Is that how you want to talk to the person you picked to decide about your orgasm later?”
He groaned as his head came down on my shoulder. “Oh, why did I do that?”
Barking out a laugh, I kissed his cheek. “Because you like being taken care of and you like it when I’m in charge.”
Neither of which were a surprise or hard to figure out, so his request hadn’t shocked me.
“I think I might need to look over my big limits list. The edging one might need to be reevaluated.” There was just enough drama to his voice to say he was teasing, but I slowly caressed up his back anyway.
As he started to melt into me, I dropped my voice and nuzzled against the side of his face. “But wouldn’t you love knowing there was nothing you had to do as the pleasure built, pushing you higher and higher? No decisions. No worries. No responsibilities but being a good boy for your Dom.”
The shiver that raced through him as he let out a nearly inaudible moan said he liked my idea. “But you’ll make me wait.”
Yep.
“You love being good for me.” As he shifted, pressing his face into my shoulder, I kissed along his neck. “You’d love knowing how happy you made me and how hard you made me.”
His body rocked forward, rubbing his obvious erection high on my thigh. “That’s cheating. You sound…”
Giving him another light spank just to tease what was coming, I nibbled on his ear. “If you’re very good, I could even find some toys to use on you that would give you tiny sparks of pain. Would you like that, baby?”
Whining, he nodded. “Not too big…not scary…but like spankings?”
“Even better than spankings.” And I’d make sure we looked at videos of all the options online first so whatever he was scared of wouldn’t rear its ugly head during the scene. “There are so many options. Sharp quick little pains. Thuddy ones that leave you warm. We can have so much fun exploring every one.”
