You never disappoint. I would tell you if you did but...you never do so it never comes up. I would never tell you that you did poorly unless it aroused you for me to do so.
( Imriel has never been cruel like some people and he imagines other Dominants might be more demanding than he is. He simply cannot be cruel to someone he cares for the way he does Caitlin. )
Are you sure? [ her eyes fix on his. ] Really sure?
[ asking for physical pain is one thing. asking him to be cruel to her, to speak harshly to her, is another. she still struggles with asking for things she wants, no matter who it is. ]
As certain as the sun. If it is what you like, I am well within my capability to do it. I prefer praise, as you know, but I am never against speaking harshly to you if it is contained within the bedroom.
( Imriel kisses her forehead lightly just to show affection. )
You simply have to let me praise you after we're done.
[ she closes her eyes for a moment, warmth from his affection washing over her. ]
Of course. I will take harsh words and praise. Maybe even mixing the two? [ does she have an idea already? perhaps. ] I'm serious about what I said earlier. Some time for the two of us where I'm not "allowed" [ air quotes ] to say no.
I will do that if it is what you want. Sometimes it is what I want but I feel like it is something at cross-purposes with the person I want to be. Knowing I'm allowed to do it and given proper license for it is different.
( The mere thought of it heats his blood and makes him want her again and that's ridiculous, to be riled by something so quickly. )
Whatever you need from me, I'll always give it. That's the sort of man I am.

I don’t want to ask you to do anything you’re not comfortable with.

( He does not think he would want to be on the receiving end of it but giving it? That, he can do if it makes her happy. )
