“Oh my God! Sidney!”
He glanced up to see her cover her mouth with her hand. Her brown eyes were wide and filled with horror. It was an unexpected comfort. She didn’t seem to see him as less of a man. A man was supposed to be strong, and not show weakness, and being taken for a ride was a huge oversight, especially for me. I study the behavior of others for a living, for Christ’s sake. That’s your father talking. Sidney had moved on from the past for the most part, but occasionally it snuck back in to haunt him. “As she packed she told me I was cold, emotionless, and would be alone for the rest of my life if I didn’t change. She said the BDSM was an experimental stage for her that was coming to an end, and she’d found someone better suited to her needs.”
“What a bitch!”
Her anger on his behalf made him smile. She and Christine were like night and day. It was a shame he’d let his insecurity blind him to that fact for so long. He owed Jackson really. Without his unwanted appearance he’d have to eat a lot more crow to get her back.
“Her cool dismissal made me snap. I broke her figurines, tossed her suitcases out into the hallway and ranted and raved like a lunatic. I had never been that out of control in my life. It scared the shit out of me. After years of watching my father terrify the women in my life, the look of horror and fear on her face made me sick to my stomach. I think that’s why I took the break-up so hard. It made me re-evaluate what I thought I knew to be a fact.”
“What do you mean?”
“She was right. I did hold back to protect myself, and in the end it was why she’d left. If I had been more forthcoming and committed the outcome might have been different.”
“How can you look at it that way?” she asked. Her eyes narrowed as she eyed him cautiously.
“Trust me; I didn’t for a long time. But the time you and I spent apart allowed me to work things out. My request wasn’t just a cop-out because I was scared.” He chuckled when she pursed her lips and gave him a look that said she thought he was full of shit.
“Okay, not completely.”
He took a deep sigh as he leaned back into the seat feeling lighter for the story he’d told. It was strangely cathartic to tell someone else what had happened to him in detail. Sidney felt his nerves fray as she remained silent. Her eyes narrowed as she studied his face. She leaned forward, a gentle smile on her face as she caressed his face with the tips of her fingers.#p#分页标题#e#
“For the first time I really see you, Sidney Rothman. You’re not an easy man to get to know, and I’m honored that you opened yourself to me this way.” A shiver ran down his spine as her strokes moved down his face to his neck. He swallowed, unused to being on the receiving end of sensations and dominance. Sutton rose on to her knees, cupped his face in her soft hands and placed gentle kisses on his face.
“You’re so beautiful, Sidney.” Her words were accompanied by her lips on his skin. Each one felt like a balm that healed the wounds of the past as they moved forward together. “I want you to make me yours completely, Sidney.” His cock hardened and twitched as her tongue laved his neck.
“Are you certain about that? Because once I claim you and collar you, there’s no going back, pet.”
“I don’t want to go back.”
A feral growl rumbled from his chest as he pulled her into his lap, and devoured her mouth. He punished her lips, biting and soothing the pain with his tongue as he placed his first claim.
“By the time I’m done with you tonight, there won’t be a part of you that’s unexplored.”
Sutton shivered as he eased her back against the couch and slid onto his knees before her spreading her legs wide. Her trimmed pussy glistened with her essence, and he hummed in the back of his throat. She was still following his directions, despite their separation. It spoke volumes about her commitment and enjoyment of their lifestyle. Funny how something so tiny could fill him with reassurance. He buried his face between her thighs and sucked her swollen bud into his mouth, willing her to understand she wasn’t the only one surrendering a part of themselves tonight. He wasn’t a man of elegant words, despite his PhD, but she seemed to understand his silent language.
The feel of her fingers buried in his hair as she forced his head closer was a possessive hold he savored. He licked her slick seam, slurped up her fresh offering of cream and plunged his tongue deep inside as her body tensed, and she began to shake. She came in a gush of liquid he eagerly drank down.
“P-please, no more. It’s too much.” Sutton begged as he continued to lap at her as she came down from her plateau.
