There was a moment of silence that wasn’t exactly awkward but wasn’tnotawkward, either.Then Mitch cleared his throat.
“So, who’s looking forward to Renn Fair?”he asked
“Me, me, me!”Domi’s hand shot in the air, and she was practically bouncing in her seat, which made Iris laugh.
“Me, too!”She grinned at Law as he squeezed her hand.“I haven’t been since I was a little kid.I can’t wait.”It gave her something to look forward to and think about other than her worries.
Law
With Iris’ things joining his, Law felt more at home rather than less.He liked seeing bits of her around the house.They’d ended up unpacking a fair amount of her stuff, though some things went in the basement.Rewarding their friends who helped them move with pizza and beer made him feel like he was in college again.
Iris’ dad stayed for dinner, which was a lot of fun.He clearly enjoyed giving his kids a hard time, and he adored Kate.While Law wouldn’t say Diego was going to adore him anytime soon, he thought he’d made a decent first impression.
“Wow.”Iris closed the door behind her family, the last to leave, and leaned against it for a moment.With her hair up in a messy bun, wearing a t-shirt and loose shorts, she looked right at home in his house.
Law didn’t think she’d ever looked more beautiful.While it was always enjoyable to see her dressed up in fetwear, he enjoyed seeing her like this just as much.She caught his gaze and smiled at him.
“So… now what?”
Smiling back at her, Law raised his hand and crooked his finger.
Standing in the middle of the room, he waited until she stood in front of him before he cupped her chin and tilted her head back.Lowering his lips to hover just above hers, he heard her swift intake of breath when he stopped short of giving her a kiss.
“Now, we go back to the bedroom and celebrate.”
Closing the gap between them, he kissed her deeply.Other than his clavicle, most of his aches and pains had resolved during the week.He pulled her in close, feeling her body press against his.He was moving easier, and it showed.
Iris’ hands slid up his chest, gently, and over his shoulders to cling to him.
He turned, angling her in the right direction, so when he broke the kiss, he could spin her around so she was facing the hallway.Law gave her ass a short, sharp smack.
“Get moving, subbie.”
Iris’ giggles echoed down the hall as she scampered ahead of him, peeking over her shoulder to make sure he was following before giggling again and dashing ahead.Chuckling, Law made his way after her, feeling a bit like a predator on the prowl, his erection thickening with anticipation as he paced after her.
She was waiting for him in the bedroom.Trapped by choice.Eagerly shifting back and forth on her feet, waiting for him.
“Strip, sweetheart,” he ordered.“I’m going to get a few toys to play with.”
Nothing crazy.Definitely no impact toys.As much as he enjoyed them, he didn’t think he was quite recovered enough for that yet.There were a few other things he could play with.Fetching them from the drawer where he kept his favorites, he turned around to see Iris already naked and kneeling in a perfect submissive pose next to the bed.
Well.
Almost perfect.
Her knees were spread, hands resting on the tops of her thighs, palms upward, breasts thrust out… but instead of having her head down, she was watching him.Little brat.Law’s lips twitched.
She was incorrigible.Nothing but trouble, as he’d once told Patrick, but she washistrouble, and he planned to keep her.
“Naughty girl,” he said, shaking his head.“You’re supposed to be looking at the floor.”He raised his eyebrows at her.
“Sorry, Sir.”Iris lowered her gaze but didn’t sound particularly sorry.
Amused, Law took a moment to observe her, his thoughts turning over in his head.She peeked up at him before dropping her gaze again.
“Do you think I can’t punish you in my current state?”He was curious.Iris had a tendency to push playfully, but he wanted to know if part of the reason she was doing so now was she thought she was safe.
“Um, no, Sir?”There was a hint of question in her voice.
