That got a soft chuckle from him and his cheeks went pink as I stepped in with him. “Then sleep? It feels…it feels like I got a lot of exercise?”
It came out more as a question than a statement, but I nodded because he’d gotten one hell of an emotional and physical workout. “You did. You worked hard and you were perfect.”
That compliment had him wanting to go back to hiding, I could see it in his face, but he needed a shower and probably a massage. “Turn around, pet. Let me get you cleaned up.”
Giving him an order and changing the subject somewhat had him relaxing and obeying without complaint. As he turned under the spray to wet himself down, I grabbed the bodywash and squirted some into my hand.
Touching him was another good distraction and had him letting out a soft sigh as I ran my hands over his back, looking for any muscles that seemed to ache. “You used different muscles than you normally do, so it’s only normal that you’d feel it.”
Talking about the puppy play had him going still but he let out a breath and nodded. “That makes sense.”
Since he seemed to be doing his best to treat it like it was something normal, I kept up the casual conversation about the interesting topic. “So you’ll need to tell me if you hurt somewhere tomorrow or if any of your gear rubs your skin or just feels wrong.”
Swallowing, he nodded slowly and I saw him lick his lips as I worked my way lower down his body. “The kneepads and mitts were comfortable.”
Flexing his fingers as he glanced down at his hands, whatever he’d been going to say was lost as my fingers stroked over his tender hole and a moan came out instead. “I…Master…”
Chuckling softly, I took my time making sure all the lube was cleaned off as he made another soft, needy sound. “I need to make sure my boy is all clean. Taking care of you is important to me, pet, and of course, I have to make sure that your tail didn’t hurt you.”
That got an embarrassed groan from Payton but it didn’t last long. “I’m fine, Master. It was…it was the right size and you were generous with the lube.”
Clearly, playing doctor was more embarrassing than just talking about the tail.
“That’s good to know.” Kissing his shoulder, I moved my hands back up his body so I didn’t start anything I wasn’t going to finish.
As I turned him around, I saw his cock was still soft, which was good, but I wasn’t going to tease him too much. “And thank you for making sure I knew it felt good, pet.”
That was a bit too much for my suddenly shy boy and he tucked himself against me to hide as he sighed. “It did.”
A short answer was better than him being too nervous to think, so I kissed him again and vowed to let him relax. I could interrogate him over breakfast. For the time being, it was going to be snuggles and kisses and bed. “My brave boy. I’m so proud of you.”
My pup had worked hard today, both mentally and physically, and it was time for Master to make sure he got the rest he needed.
Chapter 16
Payton
I had to keep telling myself that the urge to hide under the pillow and pretend to still be sleeping wasn’t a reasonable idea or a healthy one…but sometimes I was stubborn, so my fears and I compromised and I just kept my eyes closed as Master chuckled.
“Good morning, pet.” His overly cheerful tone as his fingers skipped over my chest said he was ready to ask about the playtime stuff.
I knew it.
He knew I knew it.
My brain knew he knew it.
The only person who seemed excited to talk about it was the tiny new part in the back of my head that seemed to be my pup side. He was thrilled and ready to jump right into playing again. But since he was also the part that had made us dream about pup time all night, I wasn’t sure he needed to be indulged at the moment.
He was kind of exhausting.
“Good morning, Master.” I wasn’t sure the title was strictly necessary this morning but it felt right and I knew he wouldn’t mind.
He liked being Master.
Yep, the soft, pleased sound he let out as he kissed my cheek said I’d read that right.
I got more cuddles and he snuggled up close to me, almost wrapping me up with his body when he draped his leg over my thighs.
He was still naked too.
It was perfect…but it was a trap.
As soon as I relaxed and tried to run my hands over his body, he pinned them against my chest and sprang the trap.
“I’ll let you either ask for one reward or I’ll free one limb after you tell me how you slept…and I expect a complete answer.” Master’s voice was light and fluffy, and I knew it was an even bigger trap…but it was technically an easy question and I liked making him happy.
