“Marco, this isn’t like my thing. I mean, bondage and restraints have always been good in the past. But with you— after you put me on the Saint Andrew’s Cross the first night. It’s been on my mind a lot.”

I run my hands over her tits.

“I’d love to see these in diamond holsters. Watch them turn pink as your nipples expand. Such an invitation to suck and spank them. Maybe I’ll bind your wrists at your back then your calves and ankles. I’d leave your thighs free, so they can spread wide enough for me to fuck your pretty little cunt before I fuck your tight little ass.”

Her chest rises and falls faster, and I notice her nipples have turned into little nubs. She likes my suggestions.

“What else do you have for us, little girl?”

“A ball gag, so my neighbors can’t hear me when you make me come.”

“Anything else?”

She nods. Just how much shopping did my girlfriend do before we were even a couple?

“Marco, it was an impulse one night when I was lonely because you had to cancel for work. I hate the idea of using certain toys and implements at the club, even if I know they sterilize them. I thought I might bring them with me some time.”

“Would you rather show me?”

She nods. I turn off the water and reach for a towel for her then for me. I wrap it around my waist before rubbing hers up and down her body. I let my fingers play with her clit.

“Marco.”

She moans my name as she tries to reach beneath my towel.

“Not yet. Let’s see what you have. And we still have your punishment to discuss.”

She freezes as she looks at me. It’s not fear. It’s regret.

“What’s wrong? What just made you retreat?”

“I’m going to show you all these things, and I’m certain you’re going to get off. But I won’t. If you even touch me, it’ll be to edge me.”

“What makes you think that?”

“I’m pretty damn sure you’re going to tell me pleasure doesn’t follow punishment.”

“Why are you so sure of that?”

“Because it wouldn’t be punishment otherwise. You want me to understand how dangerous my actions were, and that you didn’t voice an empty threat when you warned me.”

“Normally, I’d say you’re right. But today was unlike any I’ve ever had. I thought I was going to die and leave you unprotected. It terrified me that you’d be shot, or they’d hurt you while taking you from me. The punishment is a given, but so is the pleasure. I don’t want to leave you with only memories of pain from tonight after everything that happened.”

“Okay. I also have a waist harness. The kind that has the attached garters and the wrist cuffs that hook onto the garters. I got one more bondage thing. It has the throat cuff, wrist cuffs, and ankle cuffs all on connected chains. It came with a spreader.”

“To connect to the wrists and ankles. Does it have a leash?”

“Yes.”

“I won’t use it, Beth. That’s a hard limit for me with you.”

“With me?”

Fuck. I know how that sounds.

“It wasn’t in the past. I may tug your hair, and we might do breath play, but I won’t lead you around like pet play or a slave. I can’t with you. Just the thought makes it feel all wrong.”

She wraps her arms around me, her hands clasping at my lower back.
