The feather moved with delicate precision over the heated flesh at the apex of my thighs, tormenting and stimulating me. It made my muscles tense but wasn’t enough to bring me to orgasm.

“When I train a sub, they learn how to come at my command,” Xavier whispered in to ear. “They know that only through me will they be allowed pleasure.”

His fingers caressed my breasts, kneading my nipples until they were hard and begging for his mouth.

“Is that what you want?” he continued. “To not be allowed to touch me unless I command it? To be on your knees every time I step into our bedroom? To give yourself to me and never decide what you need?”

My mouth fell open. I wanted all those things, but I also needed the times when we lay together and laughed. I wanted to be able to wrap my arms around his waist and lay my head on his back when he was wearing only his low-riding jeans at home.

“Carly would never dare to have even touched me because I never allowed it. Those women you worried about were tied to a frame like this and under my control because that’s what I needed in my life at that time.”

Xavier removed the eye covering, his deep blue eyes boring into mine. “I chose you to be my wife because I finally wanted an equal in life, not a submissive.” He cupped my cheek in his hand. “I enjoy the pleasures of this lifestyle, but I want a wife, not a slave in my bedroom.”

No words came to my mind, I just stared at him, my mouth hanging open. I’d been jealous of all the other women, and finally I saw that what he offered me was so much more because his heart was included.

His mouth touched mine in a barely-there kiss, his lips teasing mine with the gentle movement of butterfly wings beating. My body was on fire from everything he’d shown me, my pussy was ready to throw herself in a cool bath to ease the burning of that evil gel. If it got inside you, it would create the inferno descending into hell.

“You need to be naked,” I muttered against his lips.

“What do you need me naked for?” His lips twitched into a smirk even as he kept tempting me by nibbling my mouth.

I sucked his bottom lip between my teeth and bit down gently. “I need you naked so you can fuck my brains out.”

His eyebrows arched and he held his hands over my stomach. “No cursing in front of Bubble.”

“There’ll be cursing if you don’t wipe this gel off my lady bits before they combust into a river of lava.”

“Sounds interesting,” he commented dryly. “Maybe I should take a seat and watch?”

“Or you could do what you promised when you put a ring on my finger and satisfy me. Right now, I’m so horny I could die of autoerotic deprivation.”

He laughed, stepping back. “Is that a thing?”

“It will be tonight if you don’t man up.”

Xavier chuckled, shaking his head as he took his suit jacket off and threw it over the chair. “In The Twilight Rooms, if you spoke to me like that, you’d have had a clip on your tongue until you learned how to be meek.”

The desperate need in my core was an aching throb that was driving me insane because I couldn’t touch myself or even cross my legs and clamp them together.

He slowly unbuttoned his shirt, revealing his tanned, sculpted body button by button. My tongue touched the seam of my mouth because I wanted to lick that smooth skin and trace the ridges.

“Like what you see?” He smirked and gave me that sexy look that would make my panties combust.

Too bad those panties were long gone, and an aching heartbeat throbbed between my legs. “I’d like it better if it was moving on top of me.”

His trousers followed to leave him in only his black boxer briefs. My eyes zeroed in on the bulge barely contained there. “Getting feisty, aren’t you?” he retaliated.

“I’m pregnant and ruled by hormones. My body is producing lots of lovely oestrogen that makes me horny. Since you created this hormonal monster, it’s your job to satiate her.”

He nodded seriously. “I’ll do my best.” His hands skimmed down my sides, making me shiver. “If you want to continue the full experience, I will, but you’re pregnant and I would rather be safe.”

The look in his eyes made me feel silly and deflated. “I just wanted to be sexy and for you to want me.”

I tried to gaze away, but his hand gripping my chin forced me to look into those eyes that hypnotised me. “Let me spell this out one last time, Cas. I may have wanted women in the past, but I’ve never needed them the way that I crave you. None of them tempted me to make a date with them in the dark before I saw them. None of them made me lose my mind and decide not to use condoms. And none of them ever made me want to claim them so that no other man would ever touch them. You’re mine, Cas, and that means forever. Yeah, I get off on spanking you when you’ve been naughty. I may even want to tie you up or suspend you and fuck your brains out, but I will still want to sleep beside you afterwards. That’s the difference.”

A tear rolled down my face that he brushed away with his thumb.

So slowly that my breath caught, his head descended to mine, his mouth claiming mine in a kiss that sent ripples through my entire body. I wanted to run my fingers through his hair, to wrap myself around him until there was nothing between us. Instead, I was tethered to this device and unable to do any of those things.
