of his head. But wasn’t that what she should be doing? She had
done exactly what he’d asked her to do. Despite her fears, she didn’t safe
word, so what the fuck was his problem? He had a willing participant down the
hall, waiting for him, and he wasn’t sure what to do with her.
    He had to put an end to this. He couldn’t keep her here an
entire weekend if he had no intentions of moving forward with this arrangement.
This had already gone much too far. He walked down the hall and gently knocked
on the door.
    “May I come in?”
    “Yes,” she whispered.
    She was sitting on the edge of the bed, dressed in a pair of
soft pink sweats. He noted that she looked uncomfortable and embarrassed. He
had to put her out of her misery.
    He paced the room before he found the words. “I appreciate
that you went through with what you did in my bedroom, but clearly this isn’t
going to work out.”
    “Why not?” she mumbled as she looked down at her lap. “Did I
not do it right?”
    “Katherine.” He sighed. “You see, the fact that you have to
ask me that shows me you’re out of your element. And as much as I’d like to
help you with this journey, I just don’t think I have what it takes to train
you.”
    “I see.” She got up from the bed and gathered her few
belongings that were scattered on the dresser. “Well, thanks for tonight, I
guess.” She shoved her stuff into the bag.
    “I didn’t mean to humiliate you or degrade you with what
happened in my bedroom.”
    “That’s not when you humiliated me,” she countered.
    “Excuse me?” He was a little stunned by her tone. He wasn’t
used to being spoken to that way, especially not from a sub. This one had some
spunk, which made her even more enticing.
    “You know what, never mind,” she said. “Maybe you’re not the
right Dom for me. Is there someone you could suggest?”
    “What?” Was she kidding? She wanted a referral?
    “You’ve been traveling these circles for quite some time, is
there anyone you could recommend?” She was so determined.
    “You still want to do this?” he asked, a bit bewildered.
    “I need to see this through.”
    “I don’t know.” He ran his fingers through his hair. “Let me
think about it.”
    There was no way he was handing her over to someone else.
There were too many cruel men out there, and she could be scarred for life. He
had seen too much, and as unwavering as she was, she just wasn’t prepared for
all that his world involved. Even if she thought she was.
    “You know how to reach me,” she said as she headed for the
door.
    “Wait!” He moved in front of her to block her from exiting.
“Give me this week to figure it out.” He didn’t know why, but he wasn’t willing
to let this go.
    “You’ll find someone else for me?”
    “Just promise me you won’t go looking on your own,” he said.
“I’ll be in touch.”

Chapter 3
    Second test weekend…
     
    When Luke called Katherine later that week, she was sure it
was to give her the number of another Dominant. She was surprised when he
invited her back to his house for another test weekend. At first, she thought
she should decline. Maybe this man wasn’t all he was cracked up to be. He’d
practically thrown her out of his house in the middle of the night after she
had given him oral sex. She was still angry with herself for allowing him to
use her like that. He’d gotten what he wanted and then told her she wasn’t
going to work out. She knew that being a submissive could put her in some
humiliating circumstances, but what happened at his house made her feel dirty
and unwanted. She wouldn’t let that happen again.
    But after feeling that little bit of satisfaction and power
over making him feel the way she had in his bedroom she couldn’t let this go.
It was the only thing in her life she found fulfilling. As much as she wanted it
to be with him, she’d be willing to explore other options. She wasn’t sure
where she’d found that burst of
