Page 17 of Their Naughty Student
“Those are—” Edge paused because she obviously knew what they were based on the gleam in her eyes.He swallowed hard.“Fine.”
When we started toward one of the private aftercare rooms, Jamie stopped once again.This time, she didn’t say a word; she simply walked in the opposite direction.I chuckled when she walked into the nearest vacant room.The Wild West room.
Yep.I liked this girl.
Edge was right behind her, grumbling something I couldn’t make out.
Not wanting to intrude too much, I remained at the door, leaving it open.Jamie’s gaze shot to where I was standing, and a small, mischievous smile tilted her lips.She probably thought she was hiding it well, but I could tell she was definitely working toward something.Edge glanced over his shoulder at me, and I gave him an approving nod, encouraging him to ignore me.
A silent conversation, something that had been a thing between us since almost the day we met, ensued:
Edge:You do not know when to leave well enough alone.
Me:You’vegot that right.
Obviously realizing I wasn’t going away anytime soon, Edge turned back to face Jamie.“Is there a problem?”
“Yes,” Jamie stated simply.
While Edge appeared to have stopped breathing, I couldn’t help but be amused.Jamie was attempting to sound serious, but I could see the sassy gleam in her eye.She was pushing Edge’s buttons, and it was working.
“Hey, Cav.Could you give us a few minutes?”Edge phrased it as a question, but I knew it wasn’t.
I peered over at Jamie.“Would you like me to leave?”
“You can stay,” she stated firmly.
I saw the moment Edge’s dominant instincts rose up.He would only allow this to go on for so long before he took control.I was actually surprised at how much he’d allowed her to get away with thus far.I knew the man often tried to put new submissives at ease, but he didn’t let them get away with being disobedient.He was quite passionate about his lifestyle, for the most part exuding that distinct alpha persona from every pore.
Edge slowly turned to face Jamie again, his shoulders squared, hands clasped behind his back.His abs contracted, his pecs protruding.He had assumed the position that generally had submissives dropping to their knees.
The smile on Jamie’s face said she knew exactly what her tone of voice had done to him, but the grin didn’t last long.
“I’d like a minute to speak freely.”
“Fine.”He nodded.“You have exactly one minute.”
Oh, yeah.The Dom was definitely in the room, and to be honest, it was nice to see.I hadn’t had the opportunity to play with Edge in a while—and by play, I meant take a submissive between us—so I missed these moments.
Jamie’s shoulders relaxed, and a soft sigh preceded her statement.“I get that you’re doing this as a favor to my brother, but would it be possible for us to forget Zeke made the request?”
Even she had to know that was easier said than done.
“You’re treating me like I’m here to do an inspection, not here for the experience.While I appreciate you allowing me to watch the various scenes, it’s not quite the interaction I was hoping for.”
“What exactly were you hoping for, Miss Lautner?”
Oh, boy.
“I know I’m only here because you volunteered.”
Edge shook his head.“I didnotvolunteer.”
Jamie’s expression shifted from determined to … it could only be described as hurt.She seemed rather disappointed to know Edge hadn’t made the offer to give her the tour.
“I apologize then,” she said quickly.“That certainly explains a lot.”
“How so?”Edge probed, his eyes narrowed on her face.
