Page 27 of Always Be My Baby

“Nothing. It’snothing.”

“Oh no. I think it’s definitely something.” Before she had the chance to react, I grabbed the bag, pulling it open. There was a pink-and-purple cardboard treasure chest inside her bag with kiss marks all over the outside and the wordsCoochie, Coochiewritten in curly script across the front.

“Give that back,” she demanded.

I held the box up above my head so she couldn’t reach it. Her naked breasts bounced as she jumped to try to snatch it back. “You went to a sex shop? Naughty girl. Let’s see what you wanted to play with today…”

“No!” she screamed. So now Ireallyneeded to see what was inside.

With Lee still pulling at my arm the whole way over to the bed, I knew whatever she’d hidden in that box had to be good. Finally, she realized I wasn’t going to stop and gave up, allowing me to set the chest down. I flipped the latch, slowly pushing open the lid to prolong my anticipation and her embarrassment. She stood behind me and to the side, where I could still see that glorious blush covering her body.

“A vibratorfor me?” I asked as I turned the package over to read the description. “Hmm… That could be fun... Okay, sweetheart... I’m game,” I finished, arching one eyebrow and shooting her my most wry smile. Even with beat-red skin from embarrassment, she bit down gently on her bottom lip letting me know it turned her on as well. “Let’s see what else you got.” Next I pulled out a vibrator for her. “A rabbit? Good choice.” That quickly got tossed onto the mess of blankets. Then, if I’d been drinking something, I’d have spit it out all over the bed because nothing, and I meannothing, could’ve prepared me for the last few items. “A mask,Bondage for Beginners, and anal lube? Lee—” I pressed my hand to my chest. “I’m shocked,” I teased. “How kinky.” Of course, I said all this with another huge smile on my face. “You’ve never said anything about wanting this sort of play. I’m down with it—trust me. But what made you decide to start exploring your wild side?”

She rolled her eyes at me, shoving my arm. “You were being weird. I thought you were watching porn.”

Laughing, I wrapped my arms around her, pulling her deeper into me. “Yes. I remember.”

“It’s not like I mind you watching porn, but it seemed like every time I walked into the room, you were slamming that laptop closed. So…” She bit her bottom lip again then buried her face against my chest. “I thought you found me too vanilla.”

Oh my god.“Lee, you were on that massage chair with me, right? In the bed? Hell, in the pool?”

“Yes. I was most definitely there.”

“Then, sweetheart, you know what we have together isn’t vanilla. Girard Junior is grateful for any time you want to spend with him.”

“Well, I know thatnow. How could I have possibly known you were planning this amazing trip? Really though, we don’t have to use these things if you don’t want to. As a matter of fact, let’s pretend you never saw them.”

“Woman,seriously?You brought a lover’s chest full of goodies and you think I can forget about them? Do you even know me?”

“Well, technically, I didn’t bring them. You—hey, how did you pack this and not look inside it?”

“Lena packed for you while we were at work.”

“Lena… I should have known. I’m going to kill her when we get back.”

“No, I think you’re going to thank her.” Surprising Lee, I swept her up into my arms then tossed her onto the bed. “Get ready, babe... Because we’re about to explore some new horizons together.”

It was at that point that there came a knock on the door. The food. Dammit. The last thing I wanted was to stop to eat. However, judging by all the toys at our disposal, I decided to take this as a boon. I mean, she really should have food in her belly to keep up her stamina. I tossed Lee my T-shirt to cover up with right before I slipped on a pair of sweats from my bag. Having room service enter while we were still naked was more of a new horizon than I thought Lee was ready for. Better she not be scarred before we even got down to it.

The Lobster Eggs Benedict ended up being superb. That was high praise because as a chef, I tended to find more flaws than triumphs on the plate. Not today and not this meal, though I had to admit to eating faster than I normally should have, but we had toys to play with...

Of course, because I’d scarfed down my food, she took this time to tease me probably out of retaliation for teasing her earlier, by taking her sweet old time. I huffed and grumbled and even tried to snatch her plate away. Yeah, that didn’t work. She slapped my hand and chewed even slower. Oh, Lee was going to get it.

Once she swallowed the final bite on her plate, I moved it to the floor next to mine while using a hand flat to her chest to lay her down. I let my eyes move up and down her body as I tried to decide what we should get into first.

Ah… just the thing.I opted to start with the harness to get the festivities going, binding her arms above her head at the wrist. And her ankles... I used the long straps, hooking the ends around the stout legs of the bed to keep her immobile. “How you doing, sweetheart?”

“I’m fine. It’s a little different not being able to move, but it’s also kind of exciting.”

“If anything gets too much, if you don’t like any of this, all you’ve got to do is tell me. As soon as you need me to, I’ll stop.”

“Okay,” she agreed.

“Are you sure you’re ready to do this? We don’t have to use these.”

“No, I’m ready.”

God, I loved her. A man would have to be insane to continue arguing with a woman who was willing to be shackled to a bed. Therefore, I shut my mouth and got down to the business of pleasuring her. I was one lucky, lucky bastard.
