Attempting to not dwell an excessive amount of on what she was feeling, she gathered up her discarded garments, and strolled into the half lavatory proper off the kitchen. She took a couple of minutes to go to the lavatory and clear herself up.

When she walked again into the kitchen with a moist material, Drew was standing beside the chair, nonetheless bare, with an enormous grin on his face. She laid the material on the counter and took a fast take a look at his wrists. There have been a number of crimson marks, however nothing that might final greater than an hour or two.

After her transient inspection, he glanced down at each his wrists.

“You might need to roll your shoulders a number of occasions. It’s going to assist forestall stiffness,” she mentioned, reaching for the material and handing it to him.

“Thanks.”

As soon as he’d cleaned himself, he did as she recommended and rolled his shoulders a number of occasions. She took the chance to return to making ready dinner. It was already after six thirty. Now that she wasn’t prepared to leap his bones, her physique was making its different wants identified.

She heard him shifting round behind her as she turned the oven again on to heat the steak and potatoes. The potatoes could be superb—she wasn’t frightened about that. The steak was a totally completely different story. It had solely been cooking for 4 or 5 minutes earlier than she’d turned every thing off. Hopefully, it wouldn’t be too chewy.

Turning round, she got here nose to nose with Drew. Earlier than she might say something, he wrapped his arms round her, and buried his nostril within the criminal of her neck.

Beth didn’t hesitate to return the hug. It felt good to have a person’s arms round her once more. Even when she was nonetheless frightened of getting harm.

“That was superb,” he murmured in opposition to her pores and skin.

“So that you loved your first expertise with bondage?”

He pulled again sufficient to see her face, and ran a hand alongside her cheek. “It was . . . nicely, it’s onerous to explain. Not having the ability to contact you once I needed to was irritating. However understanding you may do something you needed to me and I couldn’t cease you”—he brushed his lips in opposition to hers—“I’m unsure I’ve been so turned on in my life.”

She smiled. “So that you’d love to do it once more?”

Drew kissed her. He took his time, and he or she felt herself melting into his embrace. “You’ll be able to tie me up anytime you need.”

Beth laughed and circled her arms round his neck. “Good to know.” They stood there for a number of minutes touching and kissing till the timer she’d set went off.

Drew laid out the plates and silverware whereas she acquired the meals out of the oven and introduced it to the desk. By the point every thing was in place and so they have been prepared to sit down down and eat, it was nearly seven. He held out her chair for her. When he’d set the desk he’d made certain to seat them aspect by aspect reasonably than throughout from one another as they’d been on Saturday night time. All through the meal, he continued to the touch her. Typically it was little greater than a brush of her hand or arm. With each caress, she felt her libido revving up once more.

She cleared her throat. “We should always speak about tonight.”

He took a chew of his meals. “What about it?”

“Was there something I did that you just didn’t like?”

His reply was instant. “No.”

“Nothing?” she requested.

“I’ll admit you probably did a number of issues that shocked me, however contemplating I don’t bear in mind the final time I got here like that . . . no, I can’t say there was something you probably did that I didn’t like.”

She was quiet for a number of moments. “Talking of coming, I do know we didn’t actually speak about safety. I get a shot each three months, however we nonetheless ought to have talked about that. I’m sorry. I acquired caught up—”

“It’s superb,” he mentioned, laying a hand on her arm to cease her rambling. “We’d already talked about us each being clear and I belief that you just’d watch out about being pregnant.”

“Nonetheless, it was irresponsible of me.”

He completed the remainder of his dinner earlier than he responded. “I might have mentioned one thing, too. It wasn’t as should you had me gagged or something. I’m an grownup, bear in mind. I’ve a condom in my pockets. My dad taught me at all times to hold one. Simply in case.”

She grinned. “Superb recommendation.”

“It was. And it got here in useful greater than as soon as through the years.” He turned to face her. “After I realized that you just weren’t going to make use of something, the one factor I felt was happiness that there wouldn’t be something between us. I’m twenty-eight and I’ve by no means had intercourse with out a condom. The principle motive for that was that I’ve by no means been in a relationship earlier than the place I supposed it to final for any size of time. It was one thing I’d thought-about with my final girlfriend, however then issues fell aside and I’m glad I made a decision to not go there. Perhaps, deep down, I knew how she’d react to my wishes and that’s why I by no means broached the topic.”

Though he didn’t say it, she knew what he was implying. Drew was making a dedication to her. To them. He didn’t have plans to go wherever anytime quickly. It left her with combined emotions. She didn’t need him to go wherever, however on the identical time it was an enormous step given they’d solely been on one official date.

Deciding it was finest to not dwell on it, she modified the topic. “Wednesday begins your 4 days off. Did you need to attempt a scene or would you reasonably wait?”
