50 Shades of Drake 1 and 2

Chapter Fifty-Two

    "Can I ask you a question without you getting offended, Sir?" Destiny asked him while he drove.

    He arched an eyebrow at her. "Questions that come with disclaimers are never good."

    "The question isn't that bad. Just...curious about something," she said, tugging on a curly strand of her hair while staring straight ahead through the windshield of his luxury car.

    "You can ask me," he told her.

    "The sex in public thing...is that going to be our thing?"

    He laughed and looked at her. "Oh, you're serious?" he asked after seeing her face.

    "Yeah."

    "Yes," he said emphatically. "Say 'Yes,' not 'yeah.'"

    "Yes, Sir, I am serious," she said, still staring forward.

    He smiled and stroked his chin with one hand while steering with the other. "If you're serious, then I should probably apologize to you. I am putting too much emphasis on the sexual nature of our arrangement. I try not to, I do. But..." He glanced at her shook her head. "Resisting you is...difficult for me."

    She couldn't help but feel flattered. And relieved that her inability to resist him was a feeling that was mutual.

    "The times we had, in public, were those the first times you've been intimate like that in public?"

    She laughed outright. "Yes."

    "What do you think about it?" he asked her, bringing the car to a stop at a red light and turning his head to look at her.

    "I mean..." She looked at him, bit her lip, and shook her head. She put her face in her hands. "I can't believe I did that."

    The smile still hadn't left his face. He found her innocence incredibly appealing. "How did it make you feel, though?"

    "It was sexy," she told him. "Very sexy. But I was worried that those girls were going to come barging in the dressing room or demand that we leave. I was freaking out on the inside."

    "But there was a point in time when you didn't care about them," he said softly, pressing his foot on the accelerator pedal when the traffic light turned green. "I saw it. I saw it and it turned me on."

    The butterflies in her stomach were going crazy. She lowered her hands into her lap, turned and looked out of the passenger window. The sun had long since set, but you couldn't tell from how many people were still outside, laughing, loving, and enjoying life. "I felt...like a sex goddess," she said after several moments.

    He continued to drive with one hand. He slid his right hand across the console and squeezed her thigh. "You were," he told her.

    When Destiny and Aubrey returned back to his condo, he walked her into the red room. Explained what each device, toy, and prop was. Some were for fun and play, while others were for punishment purposes. She followed him around the room with her hands clasped in front of her, trying to remember everything that she could. There was so much to remember. She felt like disappointing him at some point in time was inevitable, with everything there was to remember. Ways to greet him, specifics on how she should sit during relaxation time, walking behind him, asking him before doing every day, routine things that had become habitual for her.

    He prepared dinner for them after refusing her help.

    "Can I ask you something else?" she asked while he sauteed vegetables in a pan.
