“Good.” Thomas moved away, keeping an eye on Shen while he took his jacket and boots off and turned the covers down on the bed. Once things were ready, he sat in the chair for a few moments, testing Shen. Five minutes later, he smiled and went to stand in front of Shen. He cupped the smaller man’s face and said, “You were such a good boy. I’m very pleased with you.”

A shuddering breath came out of Shen as he smiled. Thomas leaned in to kiss him before picking him up again. He carried him over to the chair and put Shen on his feet beside it.

“Now I’m going to go sit on the bed, and you’re going to stand here and undress for me. I want your shoes under the chair and every piece of clothing folded neatly and put on the seat of the chair. Your feet can only come off the floor to take something off, but that’s it.”

“Yes, sir,” Shen answered, shrugging out of his coat.

Thomas put a hand on Shen’s shoulder and added, “Slowly. It’s not a race. I want to watch.”

Shen immediately slowed his movements, and Thomas nodded in approval before going to sit on the edge of the bed.

Chapter Nine

Shen disrobed slowly per Thomas’ request, but his mind was frenzied. There were so many new things happening at once, it was hard to take it all in and appreciate it. He’d never been with someone taller, someone white, someone who didn’t speak Cantonese, or someone willing to pay for a room. But most importantly, he’d never been with someone who’d put their unusual desires into words so succinctly. Thomas had said he was turned on by Shen’s obedience. It was such a simple statement and yet it liberated Shen, like a man who’d been trapped inside for years finally stepping into the sun.

He’d been with Wong less than twenty minutes ago, but he was more turned on than he’d ever been in his life, even though Thomas had barely touched him. The act of limiting his actions to please Thomas gave Shen a powerful surge of confidence. It was as if Thomas had unlocked Shen’s brain and found secrets that Shen hadn’t been aware of.

Shen was down to his underclothes and as he took them off, he couldn’t keep his eyes off Thomas. The bulge in Thomas’ pants, the slightly parted lips, and the eyes full of lust made Shen feel alluring and handsome. Being in a bedroom helped erase the shame and fear of his usual clandestine meetings in the alleyway and left room for excitement and unrestrained desire. He put the last piece of folded clothing on the chair and looked to Thomas for further instructions.

“Good boy.”

Thomas’ words floated across the room and sent shivers of pleasure down Shen’s spine.

“Now turn in a circle slowly so I can see you from every angle.”

Shen turned, hyper aware of his nakedness since Thomas was still fully clothed.

“Your braid is so long,” Thomas said.

The end of his pigtail brushed against the top of Shen’s ass as he moved. He reached for the braid and pulled it to the front to lie on his chest. “My queue has never been cut.”

“Queue?”

“My braid.”

Thomas stood and walked to Shen. He ran his hand down the braid and said, “It suits you.”

Before Shen could respond, he was swooped up into Thomas’ arms again. His cock throbbed as his hands automatically clutched Thomas’ muscular shoulders. He hadn’t been carried since childhood, and he had no idea what a powerful aphrodisiac it would be.

Thomas laid him on the bed, and Shen tightened his arms around Thomas’ shoulders to pull him in for another kiss. As their lips pressed together, the bed dipped with Thomas’ weight. Then Thomas’ cold hand clasped around Shen’s right wrist and pulled his arm away from Thomas’ shoulder.

Thomas broke off the kiss and said with a smile, “It’s nice that you’re eager but I want this to last. You keep everything where I put it.” He pressed Shen’s wrist down onto the pillow above their heads. “This stays here.”

Shen’s eyes opened wider and his cock strained up into the air as he nodded in understanding.

Thomas grasped Shen’s left wrist, and pressed it against the first so that Shen’s wrists were crossed above his head. Then Thomas stood and moved to the end of the bed. He gently clasped both of Shen’s ankles and spread his legs until his feet were at the corners of the small mattress.

“Now,” Thomas said, unbuttoning his shirt. “I’m going to touch you everywhere, and your job is to keep still as if I’d tied your arms and legs in place.”

A little moan escaped Shen’s throat.

“If you’re able to keep still until I give you permission to move, you’ll be allowed to come in my mouth. If you’re not able to keep still, you may not be allowed to come at all. Is that clear?”

Shen bit his lip, swallowed once, and then nodded. “Yes, sir.” He’d given more oral sex than he could keep track of, but he’d only been on the receiving end twice, and there was no way he was going to miss out on the opportunity. But even if that reward wasn’t on the line, he’d still try to be still, because hewantedto follow Thomas’ orders.

Thomas tossed his shirt onto the floor, and Shen drank in the rippling chest muscles as Thomas took off his pants. As soon as Thomas’ member sprang free, Shen’s eyes zeroed in on it. He’d seen enough cocks over the years to know that Thomas was well-endowed, and squirmed in place while resisting the urge to reach out and touch it.

Once Thomas was completely naked, he climbed on the bed and lay on his side facing Shen. He reached a hand out and rubbed his open palm across Shen’s chest. His fingers found Shen’s left nipple and began gently tweaking it.
