"Here girl," he called across to her, patting his armchair.
"I want to read," she pouted and looked up at him sweetly, adding, with a smile: " that is, if you don't mind, sir."
"And your wants are my concern?"
"Don't be obnoxious, sir."
"Don't be vexatious, pet."
"Well, let me read then."
"And if I mind?"
"You have that puppy dog look that is irresistible, sir. You are so unfair."
"Put my diary down and come show me how unfair I am."
She blushed, turned on her side and reached across to slide the leather bound volume of secrets on to her bedside table. She thought that he had not noticed when she had surreptitiously swept it off his desk during an energetic bout of doggie position sex earlier that afternoon. Damn him.
She paused and then lifted her hindquarters off the bed. She turned her head, grinned and began to wriggle her recently abused pussy tempting him to smack her backside.
Eventually, finding that her gesture did not get the desired response, she rolled over to look over at him. She sometimes felt like a child with him - no a toy. There again, in many senses she was just a toy. Well she did love to be toyed with. He couldn't dney her that. She smiled at her silent joke and waited for him to say something clever that she could giggle happily at.
In the hallway the clock struck ten and chimed its way relentlessly into both their heads.
"I believe the topic was my unfairness," he said, breaking the silence between them with a warning frown.
"And...?" She queried, continuing to smile glibly back at him
"...And your theft of my diary," he added dryly.
"I...I was curious."
He shook his head, disregarding her excuses and stood there waiting for a while, before stripping off his jacket and sitting down next to her on the bed.
"I believe, pet," he said somewhat wearily, "the time has come to address both subjects once your delectable form is draped over my lap."
"Can't we talk about candlesticks and kings instead, sir?"
"No, you auctioned off all the silverware to pay for your last party frock."
"You can't hold parties and not let me buy new frocks. That would be unethical."
"And with your quick- witted come backs you aren't fit to fuck a baronet, let alone a king."
"That's not what you said earlier when you applied your jewels to my every which way but loose."
"I was exercising my rights."
"Oh. I'm sorry, sir. I thought you were giving me a long, overdue fuck."
He pulled her head up and looked at her without saying a word. The cold look he gave her felt so chill that it was as if he had slapped her hard across the face. She felt a hot prickling and the warmth of her face flushing, despite holding his gaze. Tears built in the corner of her eyes until she was left looking at him through a mist.
"I'm sorry," she apologised.
"So you should be."
"I get carried away sometimes, sir."
"Here!"
He patted his lap. She didn't move at first hearing only the suppressed anger. Then she bowed her head, murmured "yes sir" and moved across to lay herself over his lap, her feet touching the floor, her body lying diagonally across his lap and the bed.
"Time for my bitch to button her lip," he muttered and pulled her skirt up. The buttons tore from the skirt and popped off the ruined garment.
