Page 22 of Spinning Out of Control

He looked confused. “Should I not have?”

“No, it’s just fine,” I reassured him, leaning in to give him a kiss. My mouth felt like cotton, and my face still felt salty from crying earlier. “I could use something to drink though.”

“I’ll get something for you,” Teracht said, and I rose to my feet, making my way to the bathroom. I splashed water on my face and ran my fingers through my hair to try to smooth it a bit. Once I was presentable, I stepped out to find Teracht waiting for me with a bottle of Gatorade already open.

“Thanks,” I said, taking a long swig.

Teracht nodded, and I noticed he had a bottle of his own too, with a straw in it. For some reason, seeing the straw made me smile as I moved back over to the couch and sat. “So, how often do you have to sleep?”

Teracht looked thoughtful. “Actual sleep, only an hour or two at most each day, and I can do it in short naps. But I rest a lot too. If I wove a web and waited for prey to come, I would sort of doze.”

He really was like a housecat, I thought as I drank my beverage. Outside, there was a faint light from the moon and the nearby streetlight filtering through the curtains, but the room was still fairly bright from the few lamps and overhead lights, casting strange shadows from the webs strung everywhere. He had once more settled onto his web a little above me, sucking contentedly at his own drink. “I suppose you get through a lot of TV that way too.”

He nodded. “I do. Though I have not watched as much this week.”

“Oh, why not?” I asked.

“I was looking at the videos and things you sent me,” Teracht replied, and I flushed, remembering the amount of porn we had sent back and forth that week.

“Oh.”

“It was all very informative,” Teracht added. “I learned a lot. Thank you for giving me homework.”

“Uh, you’re welcome. I’m glad you found it interesting.”

“Do you need to go back to sleep?” Teracht asked as I finished my Gatorade and set the bottle aside.

“No, I’m good for now,” I said. That had been almost a full night’s sleep just based on when I got to Teracht’s house and when I fell asleep. Now that I was hydrated, I was feeling pretty awake. “How about you?”

“I’m all right,” Teracht replied, smiling before setting his own empty bottle aside as well. He rested his chin on his folded humanoid arms, gazing down at me.

“Okay. Well, um…” I felt a blush rise in my cheeks. “Did the stuff I sent you inspire anything?”

Teracht looked surprisingly thoughtful. “I see now why you say that humans like being tied up.”

“And not by bad people,” I added.

“Yes.” He focused his eyes on me. “Do you like being tied up?”

There was the question I had been waiting for. “To be honest, I don’t know. I’ve done some pretty simple stuff. You know, sexy blindfolds, furry handcuffs, that sort of thing. I haven’t gone full bondage with anyone.”

“Oh,” Teracht said softly, and I realized from the tone of his voice that he was afraid I was rejecting the idea.

“I’m open to it,” I added quickly. “No reason to not give it a try, at least.”

“You… you’re willing to allow me to tie you up?” Teracht sounded much more eager than he had a few moments ago. That lifted my spirits. My little spider monster who had been so afraid of being a villain was all right with bondage now that he had watched a whole bunch of human pornography and had a willing participant.

“Yeah,” I said, then glanced down at my missing arm. “I mean, we might have to get a little creative.”

Teracht nodded. “That is simple. My webbing won’t slip if I use the right kind.”

I brought my forearms together experimentally, trying to imagine them wrapped up with spider webs. “Fair enough. Um…” I licked my lips as I met his dark eyes again. “Did you only want to tie me up?”

Teracht tilted his head to study me. “Are you asking if I would like to put my penis inside of you too?”

Wow, that was a lot more straight-forward than I had heard it put before, but I nodded slowly. “Yeah, something like that. Or, did you have other ideas?” The idea of being tied up in Teracht’s web and potentially fucked by his monster dick that I had yet to see sent a weird thrill through my body.

Teracht’s cheeks blushed extremely dark. “I…”
