Shade(169)

“I knew you were honest, going to church as often as you do.” Shade ruthlessly used her honesty against her. Thank fuck he didn’t have that problem.

Lily reluctantly followed him downstairs, lagging slightly behind. He held the bedroom door open for her then closed and locked it when she stepped reluctantly across the threshold.

“Shade…” Lily began.

“Take off your clothes,” he said sternly.

Lily didn’t move.

“So you don’t plan to keep your word?” He lifted a brow, keeping his face impassive.

She sucked in a sharp breath. “Yes, but choose something else.”

Shade reached into his pocket, pulling out the slips of paper, flipping through them. He found the one he wanted and showed her the piece of paper.

“There are no exceptions or exclusions on this paper. You should have made that clear.”

“I thought stuff like that would only count when it was worded like Jewell did. I didn’t…”

“Then you should have asked. Again, there are no exceptions. I won several hours of your time. Do you or do you not plan to keep your word?”

“Yes,” Lily finally answered.

“Good. Now take your clothes off.”

When she didn’t move, only stared at him helplessly, he sighed.

“Lily, do you trust me? I mean, really trust me?”

Lily took her time answering, and he was about to give up and hand her the slips of paper she had signed when her words stopped him.

“Yes, I trust you.” The truthfulness in her voice released the tight vice around his stomach.

“Good, now take off your clothes. This time, I’ll let you leave your bra and panties on. Will that make you feel better?” He let her see a glimmer of his approval before erasing it from his expression. She needed to become familiar with what would and wouldn’t earn his praise.

She slowly undressed, pulling off her clothes and laying them on the chair.

As she undressed, Shade pulled off his T-shirt and removed his socks and boots. Then he went to his closet, unlocking the door to search through his toys.

“Lie down on the bed.”

Lily climbed on the bed, sitting on her knees and waiting.

Shade turned on his stereo, and the room filled with soft music. When Shade got on the bed beside her, his finger traced down her cheek to her throat. She swallowed nervously as his hand lowered, and he traced the edges of her bra above her breasts. Her breathing escalated at his touch.

“You have beautiful breasts.” Shade’s lips traced the same path his fingers had followed, from her check to the flesh above her plain white bra. He lifted her hand to buckle a fur lined leather cuff onto her wrist.

Her mouth opened to protest.

“No exclusions, Lily,” Shade reminded her once again.

She closed her mouth as he fastened another on her other wrist.

“Lie down,” he ordered.

She lay down on the mattress as he reached for the thin chains he had placed on the bedside table. He clicked the chains into the metal loop on the side of the cuffs. One at a time, he locked each of the chains to a hook positioned on the bottom of the headboard that the mattress had kept hidden.

Again he reached to the nightstand, picking up two plain silk scarves. Shade could tell from her frightened look that she had expected something else.

Shade tied the silk scarf around her eyes, knowing darkness was Lily’s greatest fear. To conquer it, he wanted her to experience the pleasure she could find within it.

His hand slid across her stomach, her muscles quivering at his touch. He remained silent as his hand traced over her body, lingering at her ankles, brushing his lips over the delicate flesh. His hands explored her calves and thighs until he reached her hips, and then he brushed his mouth along the same path his hands had taken.

Patiently, he explored every area of her body with his hands and mouth except for her breasts and pussy. He familiarized her with his touch until her nervous quivering stopped, and she relaxed back against the mattress.#p#分页标题#e#

When he gently removed her panties, sliding them down her legs, Lily tensed. His hand went between her thighs, holding his breath in anticipation for what he was going to discover, only releasing it when he found she was wet. He had been just as nervous as her, afraid he would find that she didn’t want him.

He explored her slick flesh, easily slipping his finger against her clit until her legs tried to close to press his hand harder against her. He touched her as if her pussy was a delicate flower which would tear if handled too roughly.

The music started getting louder, the beat faster, and Lily’s hips twisted on the mattress as she tried to capture his touch.
