"Can I get you anything else, or will that be all?"Handing Raven back my signed receipt, I smile at her and shake my head."No, thanks. Assembling all of this and putting the new equipment through a series of stress testsshould keep us busy for a while."It's still somewhat weird, but without a doubt more relaxing, to just get a nod and my credit card backfrom her."If you change your mind, we have the scented lubes on sale until after the weekend.""I'll remember that. Thanks," I reply, then grab the last package and carry it to my car, barelymanaging to close the rear hatch after I add my purchases. When I go back into the shop I see that Bethis finally done talking to the woman she has been holed up with in a corner of the café area for the lasthalf hour. I wait until she has left the shop before I saunter over to my former mentor, hugging herbefore I take the seat opposite her."I take it everything is okay - you spent an extra twenty minutes hanging around here
if that still bothers me, and will likely only get worse if we have kids – I know that our family, as itis, will be a warm and nurturing environment for anyone to grow up and live in.The last part of her remark turns my smile into a grin again, and I snort."I already pity the unlucky bitch or bastard who calls Bella's righteous wrath down upon them. Whenshe was out with Rose and her baby last week and someone looked at them in what she thought was acondescending way, she got right in their face. I don't want to think about how much worse it will bewhen it's her own brood that's under scrutiny. She really doesn't suffer fools gladly anymore.""Did she ever? I still remember a time when you didn't have the balls to confess your undying love toher because you thought she'd laugh at such a mushy sentiment, particularly when admitted after themutual destruction of a bottle of tequila."Although it has only been a year, thinking back to a time when I couldn't just walk up
My remark makes her draw her forehead into a frown."You really think he'd be self-conscious just because I was around? He should know that I wouldn'tdo anything to him or talk him into doing anything that he doesn't want to do.""I don't think it's that. It's hard to explain, but he seems happy where he is right now. With us, includedas an equal, loved and cherished, but without any responsibilities or anyone having any expectationsof him. He obviously likes to top in a scene, but he doesn't want to be a Dom, and I don't think thatwill change much. You know that not all of us get off on having to care for someone else like that.""Don't even dare to speak another word. Last time I checked, I was the one telling you it was okay tobe into power play but that it wasn't necessarily a prerequisite, just like everything else. Differentfolks, different strokes, right?""Yes, Mistress."I get an eye roll for that, and I'm disappointed when she doesn't even try to slap me pla
Their almost identical grins make me laugh, and I let my head fall against the back of the couch just soI don't have to look at either of them."I really don't give a fuck. As far as I'm concerned, the only room I'm in charge of decorating is theattic upstairs. The rest is up to you.""You can't do that! Don't be such a pussy just because you're afraid Jazz will keep bitching like a littlegirl when you make the right choice.""And what, dear Bella, is better about Edward's former room than mine? My room has the betterfixtures for lights and electronic equipment, and there's even a specially built nook in the back for asmall freezer!""Which is the reason why I think it's better equipped to be the office, not the bedroom! I so need adoor between where I sleep and where you keep your porn collection. Your computer isn't cominginto the bedroom, either.""It's not porn, it's my World of Warcraft collectibles collection!"Thankfully the sound of the doorbell saves me fr
I close my eyes as I sag against the wall of the elevator, the light ding drowned out by my sigh ofrelief.Finally home.All I want to do now is kiss my beautiful girl, grab something to eat, and take a long hot shower. Ormaybe a bath, with Bella. Just snuggle together, relax, let this fucking long day come to a slow, sweetend.I only open my eyes after the elevator comes to a stop at the top floor, where I shuffle over to the dooron the right of the short hallway. I'm sure that our nosy neighbor is watching me again, but what can Isay, I really don't care. The walls are sound proof, the windows mirrored, if that old hag gets off onkeeping track how often we come and go, I'll be the last one to get in her face. After all, we're just ayoung couple, happily in love, and have nothing to hide.I laugh softly to myself as I get my keys out and let myself in.If only she knew.Still grinning I kick my shoes off, dump my messenger bag on the floor in the entryway, and han
so more running it will have to be.As I pad across the hallway and step up to the playroom door I try to come up with a plan. My gazefalls on the scented candles that are stored in the closet next to the bedroom. Of course I can't usethem for a scene, but some extra light is always good, and the heady scent of vanilla and sandalwoodcan create a good atmosphere. Bella is being forward, and I feel I need to reward her for being sobrave. Might as well make sure it's going to be a real night to remember for her, and not just becauseshe stepped up to confront one of her more irrational fears.Picking up two of the huge cube candles with the many wicks I take them with me as I enter theplayroom. Bella hasn't moved, and while her head is still bent and her eyes cast down, I'm sure she'sfollowing my every move with eagerness.I place the candles left and right of her, outside of the square the other candles are set up in, and lightthem, brightening the room. The mirrored w
Her muscles tense up all over her body as she stares at the flame, her lip again caught between herteeth as she tries to remain calm. I blow over the wet spot on her neck until she is shaking, distractingher until I suddenly tilt the candle and splash a few drops of wax onto her chest. They all hit her justabove the ropes where I know they don't really hurt her, and after a shudder Bella stills again, slightlyless tense.The next drops I aim at her right breast, hitting the fleshy part that is constricted by the silk ropes. Aslight whimper leaves her, but that's it, so I move to the left, bringing my aim a little closer to hernipple, but still staying away. Somewhat shy at first, she soon pushes her shoulders further back, themotion putting her breasts even more on display. I keep up my game until there is only a little wax leftin the pool around the wick. I stop and smirk at her, waiting until her eyes widen in lightapprehension, before I dribble the rest onto her
and push her onto the floor so that she's lying on her side, helpless as she can't even balance herselfdue to the bonds.While she is distracted I kneel down and pull on her bonds until the heel of her lower leg is touchingher ass and her upper knee is at her chest, leaving her completely open for me.The sensation of her pussy clamping down on my cock as I thrust into her is heavenly, and I groan as Isheath myself fully inside of her. Bella gasps at the intrusion, the whole motion forcing the crotchrope to press even harder into her. I also feel it chafing against the sides of my cock, a sensation I’mglad of as it allows me to hold back a little longer.I try to hold back but I simply can't, seeing her writhe under me just makes me want to come let go. Igrab the ropes keeping her restrained for leverage as I start fucking her, hard enough to push and pullher along the floor. Bella pants and thrashes under me, her eyes half closed. They go wide as I shiftmy weight a
