Climbing in, he turned to her and asked, “How far back are your things?”

“I…I don’t know for sure. Maybe a quarter of a mile.” He could see that she was starting down the slope toward an adrenaline crash and he wanted to get her to the club before that happened, so he quickly turned and headed back the way he’d come. When he’d seen her small hand move to the door handle as the bags came into view he’d told her to stay in the truck and he’d get them. “One has my laptop. It’s really old, but it’s all I have so please be careful with it.”

“Will do.” He’d tried not laugh at her because she looked so sweetly sincere, but he was fairly sure the computer was probably already beyond repair. The thin plastic sacks she’d wrapped everything in would have done very little to protect the sensitive electronics of a laptop.  The lost look on her heart-shaped face caused him to stop and put his palm along her jawline and stroke his thumb over her cheek. There was something about her that made him want to shield her from anything that might cause her pain or unhappiness, and that certainly wasn’t his usual reaction to an untrained submissive. “What’s your name, kitten?”

“Tobi. Um…Tobi Strobel.” Her voice was airy and he wanted to shout for joy at the way she unconsciously tilted her face and leaned into his touch.
Oh baby girl, you are a sub to the bone.

“Well, it’s nice to meet you, Tobi. I’m Kyle West. I believe my brother, Kent, was expecting you quite some time ago.” Nodding toward her car in the water-filled ditch, he went on, “It’s pretty easy to see why you missed that appointment and I promise to keep him from punishing you for being late, okay?” He didn’t give her time to respond to his comment about punishment even though he’d clearly seen her pupils dilate when he’d mentioned it, instead he forged on. “Now, I’m going to get your things while you wait here.”  As he walked away from his truck he thought back on how her beautiful green eyes had widened in alarm a split second before they’d dilated with lust at his comment about Kent punishing her.  It had taken a herculean effort on his part to not pull her onto his lap and crash his mouth over hers.  He wanted to feel her lips opening at his demand and then he’d explore every corner of her mouth with his tongue before exploring the rest of her in the same way. 

After he’d placed her small bags on the floor in his backseat, he climbed behind the steering wheel once again and headed to Prairie Winds. She didn’t say anything and he’d noted that she had started shaking. After he’d turned off the main highway, he’d pulled to a stop before peeling off his rain slicker and wrapping it around her small shoulders. When she’d looked up at him, he realized her eyes weren’t just green, they were a brilliant shade of green that bordered on neon.  He just stared at her for long seconds before speaking, “We’ll be at the club in a couple of minutes and then we’ll get you dried off and you’ll feel better—I promise.”

She’d just nodded before whispering, “Thank you. I don’t know what’s wrong with me. I’m not usually this pathetic. But I feel like I’m sliding down a steep slope and there is nothing at the bottom to catch me.”

He leaned to her and kissed the tip of her nose, “I’ll catch you, kitten. Now sit back and try to relax. We’re almost there.” Before he started the truck, he grabbed his phone. Grateful when he saw he once again had reception, he quickly typed a text to his brother letting him know that he had Tobi and asked Kent to meet them in the garage—alone. He knew Kent would wonder why he would ask him to meet them, particularly when he specified he didn’t want him bringing any of the staff with him.  But Kyle knew his brother would figure it out soon enough.

****

Kent West was pleased to see a text from Kyle because he’d been worried about his brother traveling in the storm. Hell, he was already wondering what the hell had happened to that Tobi guy his mom had made him promise to talk to. All of their communication had been via email, but the guy had seemed solid enough that Kent hadn’t expected him to blow off an interview he’d been badgering them to schedule for several months. He’d just gotten to the large garage they’d built behind the club when the door to Kyle’s bay started to slowly ascend.

As soon as the truck was parked, Kent pushed off from the concrete column he’d been leaning against and approached the truck and wondered why the guy was waiting as Kyle walked around to the passenger side.  Kyle was completely soaked, he’d shed his suit jacket and his white dress shirt was so wet it was almost transparent. Kent noticed the passenger’s door still hadn’t opened and for just a second Kent wondered if the reporter had been hurt. But Kyle’s shit-eating grin was in direct contrast to that concern so he’d let it go. Kyle gave an almost imperceptible jerk of his head telling Kent to follow him.

When Kyle opened the passenger’s side door Kent was completely stunned when he looked at the most breathtakingly beautiful woman he’d ever laid eyes on. Kyle had taken her small hand in his and helped her out of the tall truck. Kent unconsciously stepped forward and tried to hold back his smile at her confused expression. Even people who knew they were twins were usually shocked the first time they met he and Kyle in person because they really did look like the same person. Very few people could consistently tell them apart. As far as Kent knew, their maternal grandmother was the only person who had
never
confused them.

“Tobi, this is my brother Kent. Kent, meet Tobi Strobel, the reporter mom talked to you about.” Kent looked up at Kyle and blinked in surprise. “Yeah, I’m right there with ya. Might want to have a chat with mom about the idiosyncrasies of information sharing.” Kyle’s soft chuckle had let Kent know he wasn’t really annoyed with their mom, but he’d likely point out her error by omission the next time they spoke.

Kent wasn’t used to being speechless and it had taken him a few seconds to recover his infamous charm. He took in Tobi’s appearance and that seemed to bring him back to the moment. She had started to shiver, so without saying a word Kent leaned down and scooped her up in his arms, then started for the door leading to the back elevator that would take them directly up to their apartment. He heard Kyle chuckle again behind him as he said, “I’ll grab the her things and meet you upstairs. Kitten, let Kent get you into a warm shower and I’ll find something warm and dry for you to wear.”

Kent looked down into the started face of the woman in his arms and smiled. “Sweetness, you are shivering and soaking wet. My brother and I would be remiss in our duties as the owners of a BDSM club if we didn’t take care of you. Besides, neither one of us wants to explain to our mother how the reporter she seems to have taken a shine to caught pneumonia because we let her interview us while she was miserable in wet clothing.” He leaned forward and kissed the end of her nose as he stepped into the small elevator. After pressing in the code for their apartment, he leaned back against the wall.

“You can set me down, you know. I
can
walk and I’m getting you all wet.” Her voice was soft and light, making him wonder what she would sound like as she begged for release. Her eyes were hooded, telling him that she was either sexually sated or skating close to an adrenaline crash. And since he knew his brother wouldn’t have fucked her in the truck, he was putting his money on option number two. He only hoped he got her undressed and showered before she bottomed out.

He heard her soft gasp as they passed through the apartment and he was looking forward to showing her around, but first she needed to be warmed up and dry. When he entered the master suite’s bathroom he started the shower so the water would warm up before he set her on her feet. He saw her eyes rake over his shirt, which was now plastered against his chest. The look of appreciation that passed over her expression made all those hours spent in the gym seem like time well invested. He’d stepped back a step, crossed his arms over his chest, and watched her study him. He smiled when her gaze reached his erection and her eyes widened. He’d been rock hard since the moment Kyle had helped her down from the truck, and from the look in her eyes, she hadn’t missed his cock pressing relentlessly against the zipper holding it captive. When her eyes had slowly tracked back up to his and she realized he’d been watching as she checked him out, she blushed a lovely shade of crimson. He decided it was time to get her into the shower. “Strip.”

Her eyes went wide and when she started to step back from him, he said, “Don’t you dare.” She instantly froze and he watched as her breathing became faster and he could see the pulse at the base of her neck pounding rapidly. When she didn’t move he took a small step toward her. “Sweetness, I gave you an instruction and I expect you to follow it. I want you out of those wet clothes right now.”

“But…you…” If he’d thought she was blushing before, well she was positively glowing now.

“Yes, I’m here and here I’ll stay. This is the only time I’m going to give you a break on this so listen carefully. You already know that my brother and I are Dominants, correct?” When she nodded he continued, “And that we own the kink club you have been trying to get into for months under the guise of interviewing the owners, correct?” This time her nod was a bit slower.
Aha, I see the sweet little sub had figured out where this is headed.
He gave her a smile that let her know he was intentionally painting her into a corner. “It stands to reason that my brother and I have seen our fair share of naked women, correct?  And in truth you are interested in more than the architecture of the club, have I gotten everything about right?”

This time she didn’t even bother to nod, she just dropped her gaze and whispered, “Yes, Sir.” At first he was sure he’d heard her correctly, but when he looked up at the door to see Kyle leaning against the frame with his arms crossed over his chest grinning from ear to ear, he knew he had indeed heard her correctly.

“Good girl, kitten. Now do as you’ve been told before you earn your first punishment before you even get your interview.” Kent watched as Tobi’s fingers slowly moved the small buttons at the front of her blouse. Her hands were trembling and he wasn’t sure if it was from the cold or excitement, but it was easy to see that she wasn’t going to get the shirt undone without help. Kyle stepped closer, “Here, let me help you. Your fingers are shaking. Are you still cold, kitten?”

When she shook her head quickly from side to side Kent stepped around behind her and then leaned forward to nip the lobe of her ear, “Answer with words, sweetness. Always with words. Be completely honest and don’t hold back or edit your answers—ever. Do you understand?”

Kent knew he was pushing her, but he and Kyle had always believed that it was best to begin as you intended to go, so there was no reason to sugarcoat anything with her. “Yes, Sir.” By the time she’d finished her answer they’d gotten her out of everything but her bra and panties. The woman was wearing lime green and neon pink underwear under that conservative outer layer and Kent wasn’t sure but he might pass out when the last of the blood that had been feeding his brain started racing south.

Kyle looked at her and whistled softly in appreciation. “Damn, girl. You are fucking gorgeous. And as much as I love that color combination against your beautiful ivory skin, the bra and panties have to go.” This time they didn’t help her, but neither of them let their gazes move from her as they quickly stripped out of their own clothes.

“Oh…my stars…are you getting in there with me?” They had moved her to the open door of their shower and Kent knew she’d already forgotten her question by the way she was staring open-mouthed at one of his favorite features of the master suite. The shower area was ten feet long and almost a full eight feet wide. They’d installed several different types of showerheads and two different handheld units that had attachments, but he didn’t think she was quite ready for those games tonight. He saw her hesitate to step all the way in when she noticed the floor to ceiling windows. “I…can people see us?” She might not think she wanted to be seen, but he’d be willing to bet his half of the club that she would eventually come to love it.

Kyle stepped over to the small control panel and the glass frosted instantly. “I think that might be fun, kitten, but we’ll save that for another day. Now, let’s get you clean, shall we?”

“You’re going to wash me? Oh, no that just won’t do. I’ll do it. That is just too…well, it’s too much.” Kent landed a stinging swat to her ass and heard her gasp in surprise. “What the fuck was that for?”

This time he gave her two swats and made them just a bit harsher. Kyle leaned close and Kent watched as her nipples tightened even more as his brother’s chest hair abraded them. “Careful, kitten, this doubling of swats could add up really quickly.” Kent hid his smile when she nodded in quick jerks of her head but didn’t say anything.
Smart girl, she learns quickly.
Goddamn she is so gorgeous I can barely keep from pushing her against the glass and sinking into her sweet pussy.

Kent started shampooing her hair and smiled at the sweet sounds of contentment she made as he massaged her scalp. “I think she likes that, brother, we’ll have to keep that in mind for later. Kitten, when you are dealing with a couple of former Navy SEALS, water sports are a given.  But right now, we need to get you finished up and out of here before you drop.” Kyle had already taken his own quick shower and Kent did the same while Kyle put conditioner in Tobi’s long hair. As soon as they’d wrapped her in a towel from the warmer, she started making all those cock teasing moans and groans again and Kent wondered how he was going to get through the interview now that he knew how beautifully she responded to their dominance. Of course, they didn’t have to make any effort to get her back to Austin tonight and from the little bit Kyle had said, it was obvious her car wasn’t going anywhere. Suddenly this evening was looking much more interesting.

 

Chapter Three

 

 

Tobi wasn’t sure exactly how she’d gone from being spitting mad about her car being wrecked and then being nearly run over by Kyle West to naked in the shower between him and his brother.  The two of them were hotter-than-hot sexual Dominants and she wondered briefly what it would be like to have their undivided attention focused on her. Talk about being run over by a freight train…mercy, these two might ask questions and she knew they listened to the answers but in the end, they would do what they wanted to do.
I wonder if anyone has ever said no to them.
