Glancing back, she gulped as she saw the handcuffs in his hand.

“Arm out.”

Holding out his hand, Aedan waited patiently until she moved. He attached one cuff to her wrist, running the chain behind one of the rails in the headboard. She raised her other hand without being asked and he locked the other cuff on.

“Okay?” he asked, brushing his fingers down her cheek.

“I trust you.”

He didn’t know when it had happened, he hadn’t just woken up one morning this way, but he trusted her as well. It had been a gradual thing that had developed as they’d slowly gotten to know each other again.

This time around, they were stronger. They knew they had to work at some things. Aedan no longer hid parts of himself from her, and Natalya was working on opening herself up more.

Aedan smiled then kissed her. He drew away from her lips to kiss his way down her neck to her breasts.

“Aedan, oh hell,” she cried as he licked, bit, and sucked on her nipple. He swapped to her other nipple, and she arched her hips up. Her body was on fire; need swamped all of her senses. That damn vibrator he’d bought her couldn’t even come close to this.

“Please, don’t torture me,” she cried out.

“Ahh, but you’ve been naughty, haven’t you?”

“You just spanked me.”

“Only because you asked me to.” His grin was devilish as she gaped at him.

Aedan almost laughedout loud at her disgruntled expression.

“Oh no, Lovely, I’ve got something else planned for you.”

“You bastard.” The look on her face told him she was dreaming of ways to remove his balls from his body. Tying her up had been an excellent idea. He kissed his way down her stomach.

“Spread your legs.”

“If you promise I’m going to come.”

“Oh, you’ll come.” Just not any time soon.

With a suspicious look, she moved her legs apart for him.

Aedan settled himself between her legs. He pulled the lips of her pussy apart. Ahh, his happy place. If he could live here, he would.

He rimmed her entrance with the tip of his tongue. Round and round. Up and down. Delicious. Slowly, he licked his way up her pussy to the swollen bundle at the top of her slit. He flicked it lightly.

“Harder,” she cried.

“Uh-uh, I’m in charge, remember?” He liked tying her up, and he’d certainly enjoyed spanking her. Arousal, brutal and fierce, threatened to overwhelm him as he played with her.

“I’m fast regretting that,” she complained.

He pushed his tongue deep inside her.

“Oh, oh, oh.”

Thoroughly enjoying her responses, he thrust his tongue back and forth, brushing her clit with his thumb.

“Aedan, please let me come,” she begged as he pulled back, savoring her taste.

“When you were using your vibrator, were you thinking about me doing this to you, Lovely?” he asked as he toyed with her clit, rubbing the tip of his finger back and forth.
