~Jasmine's POV~

You know, from the way his eyes just widened as big as saucers, you'd think I'd just suggested tying him to the bed and spanking him like the bad boy he is.

Nah.

Well, maybe later, I think to myself, unable to resist a grin.

"What?" He asks, defensively, seeing my evil grin.

"Nothing." I say seriously. "Nothing."

"Punish me?"

"Well, something along the lines of not returning your calls or being a bitch to you for a few days, until you've learned your lesson."

"Oh."

Oh?

"Oh?" I repeat. "Oh what? You sound surprised, Mr. Gordon. Hasn't a girl ever punished you before?"

"Well, yeah." Jeff stammers, reddening. "But I thought you meant something else."

"Like what?" I can't help but challenge. Maybe he has a dirty mind after all. One can only hope he's a very bad man under that perfect exterior.

"Uh, nothing."

"Jeff?" I ask, my voice low, demanding.

"I thought something else."

"What?"

He doesn't answer, just walks several steps away, looking out the window.

I sidle up behind him, my lips only a inch from his ear. "Were you thinking about being punished sexually?" He jumps slightly as I whisper into his ear seductively.

He's so easy to tease.

"No." He whispers.

"Not being spanked? Or tied up? Or made to be submissive? Or licking my boots?"

"You don't wear boots."

"I will if you'll lick them."

He chuckles slightly, but says nothing.

"Thinking about any of those things?" I dare.

He says nothing.

"Tell me, or I'll walk out of this house and never see you again."

"I never did until … "

"Until?"

"Until the other night."

"I make you think about being punished?" Should I be flattered or pissy?

"No, not like that." He whirls around to face me. "Just … just the possibilities of … " He's blushing again. My god, he is such a good boy.

"Mr. Gordon?"

He sighs heavily, looking at me. I think he hates it when I call him that.

I think I don't care. He's being punished.

"Yes, Jasmine?"

"I'm going to rock your fucking world, and you're going to love every second of it."
