Chapter 12

It was more of a playroom, and when I asked him, “Is this a dungeon?” he smiled, easily took off his clothes and let them drop on a bench, then I was next as I toed off my shoes, while Daniel held me to the spot with a sexy dark-green eyes. When he stood naked with hooded eyes, I thought,Holy shit! He’s better looking with his clothes off.Muscles and broad chest, and his cock twice the size of mine when limp, but it soon stood to attention at full mast.

He reached for his cock and layered it on top of mine and began jerking our lengths together as he claimed my mouth, capturing my tongue when I slid it into his welcoming mouth.

He pulled back from the heated kiss, and said, “No, with you it will be my playroom.” Looking around I’d been amazed by different sizes of benches, different kinds of whips and paddles.

I strode around, touching and looking, raising a paddle and examining it for exactly what, I didn’t know, but I tried to behave as if I wasn’t that callow youth who’d spent his life in books.

“Pick one.” I turned to Daniel with a wide expression. “I would never use it on anyone but you.” I wanted to be part of Daniel’s life. I was eager to learn how this would change, and how I viewed myself sexually. So far, I’d been comfortable with him naked. Perhaps, because I never had anyone judge how I looked naked.

I needed this handsome man to validate my existence, my sexuality, and immediately I wanted to be in his bed. I’d been greedy for his love, and I didn’t want him to share it with anyone. Therefore, I made myself available whenever he needed me in his playroom, and it became regularly.

That night two years ago, he became mine, and I became his.

Bryan said something to me, and with all these thoughts spinning through my mind, I didn’t hear him because the television was playing in the background, then he repeated his words. “I can take your place. We’re about the same height, and I’ll be wearing leather—”

“No. No. He likes vinyl.” I strolled to a bunch of boxes that hadn’t been emptied and reached inside and held up the mask. “Can you wear this? You know it’s confining, and if you can’t, then don’t attempt it, because you might fuck it up for me.”

“I can do this,” Bryan assured me.

“What about this?” I reached for a paddle and raised it up along with a crop.”

“This looks intense. I only played with Daniel one time, and neither one of us got into it. I knew he asked me over because he wanted to know if I knew where you went to, and his heart wasn’t into playing, and neither was my ass. I wore a pair of chaps under a trench coat in the summer. I know. I know, don’t say it. My balls were sweating, I got a rash later, and my dick never got hard, no matter how he paddled my ass. That just wasn’t my thing. I thought I would like it, because Daniel was looking to replace you. I admit that I thought if you didn’t want him enough, then I could take your place. Well, I learned the hard way I couldn’t.”

“Of course, you couldn’t replace me.” I did everything to keep from laughing in Bryan’s face. “Daniel must have changed, or he was taking out his frustrations on you.”

“It’s a fine time to find that out, but that’s neither here nor there. I gave him the safe word after my ass was red and raw, and he offered me a drink, and we decided that we couldn’t do this anymore. We’d just be friends, and after that, I didn’t see him, because I wanted more than just friendship from him.” I glared at Bryan. “It would never work anyway because of Sam.”

“What about Sam?”

“That dog’s a menace, and that’s probably why Daniel can’t keep a man, I hear. Yeah, maybe that’s it,” Bryan said. “I know I’d been trying too hard, but you were gone, and we were both in need of something—” I didn’t want to hear any more.

“How is this going to work out?” I questioned. I took a minute or two and thought about it. “I don’t think it will, but do it because I thought I was ready to see him, and have him over before things went too far with you two, or he recognized you. I would come in, and reveal myself and I’d confess, but I’m not ready at this time.”

I’d been confused and I didn’t know what to do. I wanted this to work out. I needed to get close to him in my own time, and at my place where I could control the situation.If I walked up to him at his bar, I’d be at a disadvantage,I thought.

“Is there anything I need to know about what Daniel expects?” Bryan questioned.

“What? This isn’t what Daniel expects, it’s what I don’t want you to do. No fucking, no matter how long he or you’ve been jerking off. I’ll buy some of his favorite candles, that should get him in the mood of thinking about me. I have all kinds of things in that box. Pick something.” My glance fell on Bryan.

Bryan sat on the floor, and started pulling out outfits. “What about this?”

“I can be a cat.” I shook my head. “Are you serious? Do you think a man like Daniel plays these soft games. What do you think BDSM is about? Not cat play. He’s hard-core,” I bellowed.
