Torn (Connections #2)(57)
Feeling more confident, I put my robe on, push away all thoughts except those of him, and take a deep breath. I can do this. I wanted to give him a present he'd never forget and I'm sure he won't forget this, whether I'm able to complete the dance or not.
When he enters our bedroom, I turn and smile. He's dressed and ready for dinner. Game on. He looks incredibly hot in his gray button-up shirt and black jeans.
Trying not to laugh I ask, "You're not wearing that, are you?"
He looks down. "What's wrong with what I'm wearing? It should be fine for the restaurant."
"Oh, it's okay for Swoonworthy's," I say as I untie my robe to give him a sneak peak, and then promptly tie it back up. "But we aren't going there just yet," I tease.
His mouth drops open. I point to the chair in the corner of our bedroom, the one near the window, and motion for him to sit down. Once he sits, I light the candles I scattered around the room earlier.
As I walk around the room getting things ready, I drop my robe when I'm standing in front of him. Moving behind him, I purposely get extremely close, but don't touch him; I shut the blackout curtains instead. He tries to pull me to him, but I swat his hand. When he protests I turn to him and say, "Shh . . . no talking," and then I wave my finger, saying, "And no touching. My rules." I stuck with the no-touching rule, even though I wanted to throw that rule away the minute I opened my robe and saw the look on his face.
He grins and folds his arms while outstretching his legs.
Turning on my preselected music, "For Your Entertainment" starts to play and I know I picked the right song because by the look on his face he's truly entertained.
The sensual rhythm of the song helps guide me through my dance. When I feel comfortable enough to move to its beat, I strut over to him and walk around the chair. From behind I run my hands up his chest and then drag my fingers through his hair. Unfolding his arms, he tries to take my hand, but I motion with a no-no wave of my finger. I watch him as I dance across the room. His eyes never leave mine-he's transfixed on my every move and I feel like he wants to devour me whole. His grin has disappeared and his face is now a picture of pure lust. I notice his every movement when he shifts in his seat and pulls his legs in.
Striding to the center of the room, I turn my back to him. Staring over my shoulder, I meet his eyes. Unzipping my dress, I make a show out of bending forward to step out of it. I'm actually doing this. A striptease. By the time the second song, "Little Bad Girl," starts playing, I've lost all my inhibitions and just let go.
Never dropping my gaze, I prance over to him and place one foot on his knee. His legs widen, he slouches down in the chair a bit, his mouth drops open, and his breath hitches. I motion for him to unbuckle my straps, and he takes full advantage of being allowed to touch me. He reaches behind my knee and glides his fingers slowly down my calf until he reaches my foot. As he undoes my strap, he bends down and kisses my ankle, letting the shoe fall to the ground. When I put my other foot on his knee, he slides it up his leg to pull me closer. Biting his lip, he stares into my eyes. Without looking he unbuckles the strap and tosses my shoe over his shoulder.
Once he has removed my shoes all the rules are back on. Wanting to tease him, I leave my toes between his legs and slowly roll my stockings down. When I wrap the hose around his neck, he grabs my leg. I take a step backward, shaking my head and waving my finger back and forth. He groans and I smile.
"Right, your rules. I have a bit of a problem with them," he says in a lower voice before he leans back in the chair. I shush him and can't help but smile again. I made the right choice with this gift.
To further tease, I walk over to my hope chest and place one foot on top of it. I keep my foot pointed as I slowly caress my hose down my leg. When he curses under his breath, my smile widens.
I'm almost done and his reaction is better than I ever imagined. His green eyes are mesmerizing; they're really the most beautiful shade of green I have ever seen. I unbuckle my bra and slowly slide first one, and then the other bra strap down my shoulder. Pulling the bra off, I hold it by the straps with my arms above my head and then drop it to the floor. I cross my arms and hands over my breasts then slowly turn around. His lips part and his head falls back. When I slide my hands across my body to reveal myself he curses even louder.
Alternating between clutching the sides of the chair and tapping his fingers, it's obvious my rules are killing him-his body language and his piercing eyes tell me so. Prancing back over to him, I use my hands to push his knees further apart then prepare to strip off my final layer. Tucking my thumbs inside the string circling my hips, I begin to lower them, inch by inch, and once they pass my hips, I sit on his knee and slide them the rest of the way down. When they reach my ankles, he grabs them and brings them to his nose. Standing up I take a step back to finish my dance, but he stands up and grabs me. With his mouth over mine he growls, "Fuck, that was the hottest thing I've ever seen. You have no idea the things I want to do to you right now. I'm done following your rules." Then he crushes his lips to mine and thoroughly kisses me.
