“I don’t know the way issues labored with Kurt, however after we’re enjoying I count on you to obey me. You’ll have your safeword, however until you select to make use of it, I count on compliance.”

She nodded. “Sure, Sir.”

“Good.” He retrieved the papers she’d given him initially of their meal, seemed them over once more, after which met her gaze throughout the desk. “Now, we’ve only a few extra particulars to go over.”

They stayed on the restaurant for nearly one other hour going over specifics on her checklist. Nothing too graphic. They stored their language imprecise in case somebody was listening, however nonetheless there have been occasions she wished a gap to open up beneath her and suck her in.

As he drove her residence, Grace tried to not learn an excessive amount of into Alexander’s insistence that they proceed their dinner dates through the week. They wouldn’t be enjoying then. He’d mentioned he wished them to have some downtime the place the foundations didn’t apply.

He’d additionally requested her about intercourse, which had been essentially the most embarrassing matter of dialog to have in the course of a restaurant. They had been alone and a lot of the different clients had cleared out. Neither of these information mattered as she turned beet pink.

She’d recognized the topic would come up given what she’d marked on her checklist, however she hadn’t anticipated him to deliver it up then. Mortified, she’d informed him that she wasn’t positive. That her physique was greater than prepared, however she didn’t know if she was really able to have intercourse with somebody who wasn’t her husband.

To her aid, Alexander understood. He assured her that they might take issues gradual in that regard and determine it out alongside the best way. It was the right response, and but it wasn’t. She ought to have been grateful he wouldn’t push her into leaping into mattress with him, however she couldn’t deny that she was just a little disillusioned.

He parked in entrance of her home and walked her to her entrance door.

“Did you need to are available?” she requested. He’d are available typically after their dinners, and to be sincere, she wasn’t positive she wished to say good night time to him but regardless that it was already after 9.

“I don’t suppose that’s such a good suggestion.”

She was just a little confused till she noticed the look in his eyes. Their dialog earlier had had an impact on him, too.

Earlier than she might consider something to say, he reached as much as brush the again of his fingers in opposition to her cheek. “It’s not that I don’t need to, Grace.”

The air round them felt heavy and he or she felt herself leaning into his contact.

He positioned his hand below her chin and tilted it up till she was taking a look at him. “I’ll e mail you an inventory of guidelines and necessities tomorrow.”

That had been the very last thing she’d thought he’d say.

Alexander launched his maintain on her and dropped his hand all the way down to his aspect. “How about I take you to dinner Thursday night and you may let me know when you’d prefer to make any adjustments earlier than Friday?”

Friday. The membership. She’d nearly forgotten.

“Grace?” He had one eyebrow raised and was ready on a solution.

“Sounds good,” she managed to choke out.

“We’ll go as gradual as you want. I promise.”

A form of peace came to visit her. She launched a deep breath and smiled. “I do know. I belief you.”

He held her gaze for an extended second and he or she noticed one thing in them change. She knew that look. It made her insides flutter. “Go inside, Grace.”

She took out her keys and opened the door, sending one final have a look at Alexander. “Good night time.”

“Good night time.”

As promised, Alexander emailed a top level view of their association alongside together with his limits checklist to Grace very first thing Tuesday morning. He knew she was at work, so she most probably wouldn’t get an opportunity to look it over till later that night time, however that didn’t assist the bit of tension he felt. She’d by no means performed with anybody however her husband, whom she’d recognized for a decade. It was going to be totally different for her, an adjustment. He might solely hope she would embrace it.

Her assertion the night time earlier than that she trusted him had nearly despatched widespread sense out the window. He wished to take her up on her supply to come back inside, however he knew that wasn’t smart. They wanted to do that proper. He wished to do it proper for her. And even she had admitted she didn’t know if she was prepared for intercourse but.

Scrubbing a hand over his face, Alexander ignored the rising discomfort in his groin. He’d taken care of issues when he’d gotten residence the night time earlier than, nevertheless it didn’t really feel prefer it. Fascinated with Grace and all of the issues he wished to do to her, together with her, was sufficient to have his libido hovering uncontrolled. He actually did have to get laid. The one drawback with that was the one lady he had any curiosity in taking to his mattress was Grace.

He had a gathering over lunch that ran nicely into the afternoon. Over his ten-year navy profession he’d had a couple of commanders that loved to chatter on as a substitute of attending to the purpose, however the man who was at present standing on the far finish of the convention room took the cake. He’d been rambling on about medical billing procedures for nearly forty minutes. It may not have been so dangerous had he been sharing some form of new approach of doing issues, however he wasn’t and Alexander wasn’t the one one within the room who seemed as if he had been about to go to sleep.
