I hit the speed bump at least ten miles an hour over the speed limit. The Jeep objected to my rough handling, bouncing hard, and I heard a nasty scrape as my exhaust battered off the highest point of the hump. I winced, but I was late -- really late. I swung into my street and, seeing no nosey neighbors out in their front gardens, floored it until my house came into view. His car was in my driveway. It had probably been there a while. My phone had beeped at least three times, but I hadn't had the courage to look and see if it was Sir.
It wasn't like his displeasure could make me go any faster.
And it wasn't my fault that some moron had dumped their load on the highway and trapped us all for over an hour.
I pulled into the second space in the drive as quickly as I dared. I had the engine off and had yanked up my handbag in the space of a heartbeat, flinging myself out the door and around Sir's car to the front porch, where he was waiting for me, an overnight suitcase at his feet, suit bag draped carefully over the top. He did not look happy.
"I'm sorry! I'm sorry!" I chimed, fumbling for my keys. "There was an accident, and I couldn't get off the highway. I had to wait for them to clear it."
"You should have messaged me," he said, voice hard. "I was worried. I thought it might be you, involved in a crash."
Oops. I hadn't thought of that.
"I sent you messages, they came through on my phone did they not?"
I had the door open now, and we were seriously behind schedule, but he didn't move a muscle. Apparently we were going to have this out first.
"They did," I said. No lying. It was the one thing Sir abhorred above all else, and I was hopeless at it anyway.
"But you didn't read them."
Nope. I grimaced. "I thought you'd be mad at me."
"Was the accident your fault?"
"No."
"Then I would not have been angry. Only relieved that you were all right."
He was right, but in the moment I'd been filled with panic as the minutes ticked by -- I hated being late -- and I'd only thought about Sir at my house, unable to get in, waiting for me.
"I'm sorry," I told him.
"Hmmm."
Not forgiven yet then. He motioned for me to go inside, draping his suit bag over one arm and picking up the small suitcase. We were going to the theatre to see a show, and Sir had got us stupidly expensive seats right at the front, so I'd be able to see every thought, every emotion on the actors' faces. The thought of the money he'd spent made me even more anxious, sitting in the damned traffic jam. I could feel dollars slipping down the drain with every minute that passed.
"Do you want to use the basement bathroom?" I asked, dumping my stuff just inside the door and hauling off my shoes. "It'll be quicker if we can shower at the same time."
"I had plans to shower at the same time," Sir told me, his voice down in that low, sexy register that turned me to jelly. "But you don't deserve that."
Balls!
"Maybe later?" I asked hopefully.
"No." Double balls. "We're leaving in twenty minutes, Kitten. Be ready."
It took me twenty minutes to dry my hair.
I squeaked and raced for the stairs, unbuttoning my work blouse as I went, my bra off and my skirt undone before I reached my bedroom. It was spotlessly clean -- I always gutted it before Sir came over -- but I tossed my clothes onto a pile on the carpet as I entered the en suite and turned on the shower. I'd planned to wash and style my hair, but that was out. I reckoned I could do a pretty decent French roll with it as it was, and that was elegant enough for the theatre, wasn't it? I shoved myself under the spray before it had fully warmed up, shivering as I scrubbed at my face and lathered up a sponge. I washed myself as quickly as I could, thanking every god I could name that I'd shaved my legs that morning.
Eight minutes had passed when I shut off the water and grabbed a towel from the rail. I lotioned up and sprayed myself with perfume then wiggled into my underwear -- a sexy, lacy set I'd bought especially for the occasion. I shimmied into my little black dress, also bought for the occasion and plunging down to reveal an almost -- almost -- indecent amount of cleavage. The bra plumped my breasts up beautifully, they looked good even to me. What looked less good was the little indent where my knickers were digging into my hips slightly. Well fuck, that ruined the line of the dress completely.
I debated for half a moment, then hitched the dress up and tugged my knickers down. I kicked them away and re-evaluated. Yeah, that looked better. And it was a filthy little thought, imagining that all I had to do was part my thighs just a couple of inches and Sir would be able to finger my cunt.
Our seats were in the front row -- would the actors be able to see? I smirked at myself as I smoothed my hands over the dress, then I paused. Looked towards the shelves in my walk-in wardrobe. Should I? I might be in trouble for doing it without asking, or maybe Sir would be impressed with my initiative? It could go either way, really, but it didn't matter. I'd already made up my mind.
Tugging my dress back up over my hips, exposing my naked ass, I rooted around in my little box of naughty toys until my fingers touched the cool smoothness of my metal princess plug, a pink gem at the base. I grabbed my lube too, lathering the plug and then reaching around to slip my still slick fingers inside me. I didn't have time to do my usual controlled breathing, sliding the plug in and out as I stretched the ring of muscle to accept it, but I was so aroused by the thought, so twitchy about the seconds and minutes tick ticking by, that I was almost immune to the pinch of pain as I forced my body to accept it.
