Summary

            After her reunion with Cole, Lexi finds herself spending all of her time intentionally avoiding him. She was having a tough time getting the memories from that night out of her head, and she had made a promise to herself that she wouldn’t give her heart back to the man who shattered it all those years ago, even if it had been a misunderstanding. She had promised herself that she would never leave herself vulnerable like that again, but with him that was such a difficult promise to keep. 
               In order to keep her distance, Lexi decides to take Jax into town for breakfast and possibly some car shopping. While at the diner, they run into a few familiar faces, one of which happens to be her old best friend, Ellie. The two girls catch up and Ellie invites her to a girl’s night out that night. Deciding that a night out might be exactly what she needs to forget about Cole, she agrees and heads home to get ready. 
               The girls meet up that night and head out for dinner followed by one too many drinks at Tim’s Tap. When Cole walks in to find Lexi dancing with a handsome stranger, it doesn’t take long for him to realize that she is way too intoxicated to look out for herself. Things get heated when he tries to take her home, and Lexi finds herself being hauled out of the bar over his shoulder. Even in her drunken state she knew that she would pay for her behavior sooner or later. 
               Waking up with one hell of a hangover, Lexi finds herself in Cole’s bed, although she is fully clothed this time. As the memories of the night come flooding back, she realizes she’s really in for it this time. When she gets downstairs and Cole doesn’t immediately lay into her, but instead makes her breakfast and wants to talk, she knows something is up. Cole assures her that she is going to get the spanking of her life for her behavior, but first he asks her some very personal questions. Questions that could have life changing consequences for Lexi. Questions that she’s not sure she’s prepared to answer. 
This is a novella of about 11k words. This is the second installment in a four-part series. All installments will be available as a set after the fourth is published. 
Note: This story contains domestic discipline including the spanking and switching of adult women. If such material offends you, please do not read this novella. 
Available since: 02/05/2016.

    “Don, I got tickets for the concert in the park for next month. I hope the weather will be nice for it,” I said to my husband as he stuffed papers into his briefcase.  
     
    “I do love concerts in the park. Don’t you?”  
     
    “Hmm,” was all he said “Where is my agenda?”  
     
    I tried not to feel hurt by him brushing me off. It was nothing new these days. He’d been so busy with work lately that he didn’t seem to have time for me or anything else. I sighed and handed him the leather bound book. He took it without a word and zipped up his messenger bag. Slinging it over his shoulders, he picked up his travel bag and suitcase. He was off to another business trip.  
     
    “I have to go. I’ll call you from the airport,” he said as he headed downstairs. I followed him. “Where are you going this time?” I asked. “Denver.”  
     
    “How long will you be gone?” Don shrugged. “I’m not sure. What’s with all the questions, huh? I’ll be back when I’m done.” I looked at him.  
     
    “I’m sorry, dear. I want to know because I miss you when you’re gone. That’s all. I’m not trying to get in your business.” He glanced at me over his shoulder briefly before checking his phone. “That’s probably a good thing,” he snapped. He finished typing the text and stuffed the phone in his pocket.  
     
    “Look Katerina, I don’t like being gone so much anymore than you do. But you’re not working much anymore. Maybe a gig here or there. And-”  
     
    “My agent gets jobs for me, Don,” I protested softly.  
     
    “I can’t help it that the agencies want younger models.” Don snorted. “Be that as it may, I don’t know why you still try. Face it, baby. You’re modeling days are over.” Hurt washed over me but I didn’t let him see it. He’d been saying that a lot as of late.

    The last thing I expected to find in my dossier was sexy stockings, a plane voucher to London, and an invitation to dance at a gentleman's club. I'm a quiet museum curator for God's sake. No way, no how am I going to slide down a pole for a bunch of over privileged, narcissistic men—until I see Sean Fraser, my childhood crush, enter the establishment. Since I'm no longer that overweight teen with braces and mousey hair, there is no way he'll recognize me. Hmmm . . . Maybe I'll give him a fake name—and a private dance. That ought to make him finally notice me, right?What the hell is Kennedy Lane doing sliding down a pole in a private Gentlemen's club? I'm not sure, and while I know she's hands off, I want her. I've always wanted her. She might have been too young for me back in the day. Now, not so much. Hands off leads to hands on after a private dance, and while Kennedy spends the weekend pretending to be someone she isn't, I know full well who she is. And I'm not quite ready to let her hang up her stockings when the show is over.Contains mature themes.
