His Absolute Compulsion — Cerys Du Lys

When the power goes out and Lucent's dominant personality kicks into overdrive, Elise realizes this might be her only chance to challenge his preconceptions of her and intensify their intimate connection.

(A Cerys du Lys contemporary BDSM erotic romance novella)

After secretly filling out Lucent Storme's Master/slave contract of consensual ownership, Elise resolves to give it to him. She's thought about it overnight and they've had a good connection. It makes sense.

It's probably a terrible idea.

With Lucent irrationally irritated about the contract, refusing to accept her acceptance, perhaps they should go their separate ways. Except they're trapped in the library. And now the power's out.

He's mad. He's not mad. He's mad and not mad and Elise can't keep up. Is this it? She knows she's setting herself up for disappointment by longing for a man who's domineering, controlling, and confounding. He's kind-hearted and thoughtful beneath it all, though. While they strive to understand one another and struggle to keep warm, can she find a way to rekindle the commanding, passionate fire within Lucent?

Whatever it takes, she's adamant about discovering the mercurial crux of His Absolute Compulsion.

"Do you want to know why spanking was on that list?" he asked with a growl.

I nodded fast. "Yes. Please."

He smirked. "While I would expect you to do as I say all of the time, there does come the occasion when we might find ourselves in a playful mood, Miss Tanner. Commands are absolute and punishments are necessary, but when it comes to play time, things become a bit more shaded. Don't you agree?"

I nodded. I nodded fast. I couldn't nod fast enough. Yes, yes, I agreed.

"Lucent," I said quickly, a thought forming in my mind. "For that contract, would you ever tell me to do something you knew I'd hate?"

"You aren't signing the contract," he said firmly. "This isn't up for discussion."

"I know," I said. Leaning forward, I lay my head on his shoulder, nuzzling against his neck. "I know that. I just wanted to know."

"Miss Tanner." He sighed. "You do realize that curiosity killed the cat."

"Please?" I pleaded. "Tell me?"

"I certainly don't wish to kill you, but I'm increasingly becoming of a mind to spank you," he mused, ignoring my question.

"Lucent..."
