“Let me go,” she pleaded weakly.

“Is that what youreallywant?” She dragged her fingers over her girlfriend’s slit again and she mewled.

“I...I...”

Scarlet wondered if she was evil to enjoy this so much.

When she pressed harder on her clit, Reece jerked against the ropes and a cry escaped her. “Please!”

“I thought you wanted me to stop?” she purred with a grin.

“I need to come,” she rasped.

“You don’t need to come, kitten. You just want to.”

“Yes, I want to!” She sounded teary. “Please help me, Scarlet.”

“If you’re sure that’s what you want.”

“Please?” Reece’s whole body was taut with frustration. Was it because she’d started horny? The ropes? Scarlet taking charge? Malachi watching? Or was it amix?

Scarlet stretched over her and kissed her mouth hard, pressing her thigh up between Reece’s. Immediately, Reece rubbed against her, breathing hard. The heat of the girl’s sex was obvious, even through the fabric of both of their pants. This was more fun naked, but Reece wouldn’t thank her if she pushed the nudity issue already. When she was about to come, Scarlet pulled away.

“Scarlet, no! That’s not fair!” Reece whined. She turned her head back and forth as she tried to see something from behind the blindfold.

“Do you get to decide what’s fair?”

She worried at her lip for a moment. “No, I don’t. It’s up to you right now. Is that the right answer?”

Scarlet chuckled darkly.

Her girlfriend made a sound of frustration. “Please!”

She was seriously starting to get a fetish for begging. Scarlet slapped her sharply between the legs three times and Reece tensed up in her bonds. She pressed hard on her clit, where she could feel it through the fabric. With a gasp, Reece started to convulse, coming hard. She screamed and pulled at the ropes. Not sure if she was crossing the line, Scarlet slipped her hand into the front of Reece’s pants and slid a finger into her then rubbed her clit with her thumb.

Reece’s mouth hung open and her body froze up for a moment before she came again, helpless to stop. When the aftershocks had finally trailed off, Scarlet untied her and pulled off the blindfold.

Reece stared at the ceiling in a daze. Scarlet pulled her into her arms and cuddled her as she stroked her hair and told her what a good girl she was.

Where had that come from? Scarlet felt like she’d performed some sort of amazing magic trick. Would she ever figure out how to do it again?

Reece relaxed against her and looked half asleep.

“Why did you keep looking at me?” Malachi broke the spell.

“She won’t pick a safeword. Usually when she complains, I stop and I don’t know what to do.”

“She needs a safeword,” he said sternly. “If I were you, I wouldn’t go further without one. Lots of people like saying no when they really mean yes, and that’sokay, but for safety’s sake, she needs a safeword.” His expression slid out of strict Dom when he grinned wickedly. “And that makes it more fun for you, Scarlet. Because she can resist and protest all she wants, but unless she says that one word, it’s fair game to do whatever you want.”

Scarlet immediately saw the appeal in that. She grinned back at Malachi. “Okay. Do you hear that Reece?” She gave her girl a little pat, but she didn’t seem coherent. “Start thinking of a safeword.”

Mal chuckled. “So has she gotten off like this for you before when you were topping her? You didn’t seem to need much help there.”

“Fuck, no! That was totally fucking amazing. This has never happened before. Not even close. Usually I stop and we argue and we’re both frustrated and go watch TV.”

He smiled kindly. “You need to pick a safeword and stop letting her run the show. She doesn’t respect your authority. You also need more confidence that you’re doing the right thing. Other than that, it seemed to work pretty well for you both.” He shifted and readjusted his cock without seeming embarrassed by it. Scarlet felt his pain – she had a cramp in her lower belly that she only got when she’d been frustrated too long. Maybe girls could get blue balls.

She brushed her lips against Reece’s hair and the girl snuggled into her. “Okay. But what about me liking pain? Are you sure that’s not a submissive thing?”
