Chapter 52


    I’ve just stepped out of the hot shower after a long day at work. I wasn’t supposed to start back until


    tomorrow but apparently, the flu is going around and one person from the bakery called in sick and two


    from the coffee shop, so I work a full double shift today and all I want to do now is crawl into bed after


    having a nice hot shower, but my phone starts to ring. When I see that it’s Jace video calling, my smile


    spreads across my face and I answer it.


    “Hey, handsome. I wasn’t expecting you to call.”


    “Hello beautiful,” Jace smiles back, but it’s not his usual smile and I can tell right away that something


    is wrong, “We need to talk.”


    “What’s going on? Why do you seem upset?” I sit down on the edge of the bed.


    Instead of answering my questions, he tries peeking at me, trying to see more of me, “What are you


    wearing, Precious? Is that just a towel?” He bites his lower lip. “You just showered, didn’t you?”


    The way he looks at me with his Dom face on, his voice low butmanding andced with lust, all I


    can do is nod. My heart rate picks up and my core begins to throb. I notice that he’s at some sort of


    Gym, but I don’ think anything of it as he continues to give me that I want to fuck you’ look.


    “Did you y with yourself?”


    “No Jace, I know that isn’t allowed.”


    “Good girl,” he hesitates briefly, “I’ve got something to ask you, Precious, and I want you to be one


    hundred percent honest with


    1. me. I don’t want you thinking that I’m going to be upset with you at all, okay?” I see concern in his


    eyes.


    “You‘re scaring me, Jace. What’s going on?” I ask shakily.


    “Just promise that you will answer honestly.”


    “I promise! I’m always truthful with you.”


    “Okay, thank you,” he scrubs his face with his hands, “You know ! fucking love you, right?’


    “Of course, I do, and I love you, Jace…”


    “Do you really love me, E, or is it because I made you submit to me? Do you feel like you have to be


    my submissive and tell me you love me because you think I’m still bullying you?”


    He’s scared about something; I can see it all over his face. I don’t understand why he’s doubting what I


    do and say. Maybe in the beginning I felt as though he was bullying me into submitting, and actually, he


    was. Once I embraced the darkness and my needs, though, it was Jace that was there to help me and


    show me how to enjoy everything. Jace has been the one that has been there for me, even after all


    those times I tried pushing him away. He knows what I need, and he gives it to me, loving me along the


    way. So, no, I don’t love him because he is bullying me, but I did fall in love with him because he had


    bullied me.

    “No, Jace. Maybe in the beginning you were bullying me into it, but I’m on board in this rtionship one


    hundred percent. I love you, not because I think you’re bullying me now, but because you bullied me.


    How do I know if my feelings would have changed for you had you not bullied me? I don’t think I would


    have known my true self had you not be my bully.”


    Jace is quiet as he gazes at me through the screen. His green


    eyes sparkle with emotion as I gaze back. Something passes between us during this time and I’m not


    quite sure what it is, but I’ m now craving his arms around me from behind, one hand on my throat


    while the other does delicious things down below.


    “Thank you, Precious. I really needed to hear that. I was prepared to let you go and give you time to


    figure your feelings out.” He tilts his head and studies me, “Are you sure you don’t need to take that


    time to be sure?”


    “Jace, if you break up with me right now, I think I may die. I need you, Sir, and I do love you. I don’t


    need time to figure it out. Allt need is you.”


    “Fuck, baby. I’m sorry, but I had to be sure.”


    “What brought all this on?”


    “Well, I went to see this Dominant who happens to also be a Sadist who has a sub that is a true


    Masochist. I wanted to learn more about how to handle your urges better. I don’t want to deny you of


    what you want and need, but I’m not sure just how much to give. Anyway, we got to talking about the


    why’s and how’s, and well it was brought up that your bullying may have been the cause for your


    Masochism.”


    “So, you’re ming yourself?” | ask.


    He nods.


    “I don’t care what the cause is, Jace. I love what we have and wouldn’t trade it for anything. I love when


    you master me, when you master my body,” My voice dips really low, “I wish you were here now,


    because I want to feel your hands on me, and not in just a touchy-feely kind of way.” I smile seductively


    at him.


    “Damn, you’re making this really hard for me, Precious.”
