"Submission or Surrender"
Part 8
Emily's eyes widened as Max's grip on her wrists tightened, his fingers digging into her skin. She felt a surge of pain and fear, and her instincts took over. She began to plead with him, her voice shaking with desperation. "Max, please...calm down. Be gentle with me. I didn't mean to upset you. I only want you, I swear." Max's expression didn't change, but his eyes seemed to gleam with a mixture of anger and curiosity. He leaned in closer, his face inches from hers. "Prove it," he whispered, his breath hot against her skin. Emily's heart skipped a beat as she realized what he was asking. She felt a wave of humiliation wash over her, but she knew she had to do whatever it took to calm him down. She took a deep breath and began to speak, her voice barely above a whisper. "I only want you, Max. I love you. I promise to obey you, to respect you. Just please...be gentle with me." Max's eyes narrowed, his gaze piercing. "Say it," he commanded, his voice low and husky. "Tell me that you want me, and only me. That you'll do anything to be with me." Emily felt her face burn with shame, but she knew she had to do this. She took another deep breath and spoke the words that would change everything. "I want you, Max. Only you. I'll do anything to be with you, to make you happy. I promise to be faithful, to obey you, to be your everything." As she spoke, Max's expression slowly changed. His anger seemed to dissipate, replaced by a look of intense desire. He leaned in closer, his lips brushing against her ear. "Anything?" he whispered, his voice sending shivers down her spine. "You'll do anything?" Emily nodded, feeling a sense of trepidation. What did he have in mind? What would she have to do to prove her devotion? She knew that she was taking a risk, but she was willing to do whatever it took to make him happy, to keep him by her side. Max's lips trailed down her neck, leaving a path of fire in their wake. "Good," he whispered, his breath hot against her skin. "Because I have something in mind, something that will test your devotion. Are you ready?"
