Minutes, maybe even hours passed by us, as we remained under the dark sky moving our lips in an intoxicating rhythm.

‘You’re cold,’ his hand skimmed the crawled skin of my breasts, making him close a few of my buttons back together. ‘Let’s get you inside,’ he helped me off from the floor then walked me to the fireplace. ‘I’ll get you a new blanket,’ leaving my side, he walked to a chair and retrieved a new covering for me, as at the same time, a scary memory ran through my mind at the thought of how I lost the first one.

Sipping on my glass of wine, I turned to see where he was going since I heard him stepping away, only to find him preparing to take a place on the couch.

‘You’re not joining me here?’ I found that strange since a minute ago he seemed unable to take his lips off me- not that I would have any reason to complain about that.

‘If I was to join you right now, there would be a 99% chance that I would break my promise,’ he flashed a grin that got lost in his glass of wine. ‘Don’t worry, we will be sharing the bed tonight.’

‘Is that a threat?’ I chuckled, feeling my cheeks blush from the fireplace heat...or from the wine, can’t be sure of the true offender.

‘Only for the weak of heart. I see it as a challenge.’

He certainly had something wicked in his mind, and I just prayed, it won’t be so extreme as our moments on the balcony.

I guess I needed to pretend there’s nothing wrong with his actions so I could convince myself to go through with this as every second spent with him was making me doubt my sanity.

He is the charmer, the jack of hearts combined with the wild card, perfectly synchronized into the most dangerous weapon of seduction.

My hands began to catch color again as my body was coming back to life. I was finally warm, stretching my feet, letting the blanket slip off my back...and somebody noticed!

‘Is it better now?’ Ferris asked as if he had waited for me all along.

‘Yes,’ I whirled my body to face him, wondering when was he planning on joining me on the rug. It took me a while to warm myself, so I guessed that all manly matters should have been calmed by now.

‘Bea, I need you to do as I say. Think you can handle that?’ His voice warm, and calculated at the same time, as he was preparing to order me around, but dressed his command in pretty clothes, thinking that I couldn’t tell.

In reality, he didn’t need to do that, we had a deal. One that I had all intentions of obeying.

‘Yes,’ I nodded to confirm the answer, then raised to my feet to see what he had in mind.

‘Ok....take off your shirt.’

What!? It’s not like he didn’t see earlier what was underneath it, but it seemed a little strange that he didn’t personally come to take it off. However, I couldn’t say anything, so unbuttoning the parts that were holding it together, I let it fall to the ground.

‘Now, your skirt,’ he continued the instant I finished, waiting for me to follow through, slowly watching the material turning into a black pool at my feet.

‘Perfect, now get on the bed,’ his voice almost cracking with excitement.

Why did I have a feeling that it wasn’t curfew yet?

My body arched against the mattress, not into some overly excited gesture, but trying to hide it between the sheets.

‘You’re doing great, Bea. I’ll be there shortly, but I need you to do something for me first.’

That sounded like even moretrouble...

Ferris positioned himself better on the couch as if trying to get a better view ‘Put one of your hands over your navel.’

‘Ferris...’

‘Shush… Do as I say.’

My eyes closed, sensing what was to come as my thighs squeezed to one another, protecting the sensitive place between them.

‘You can keep your eyes closed if you want, it’s ok.’

At least I didn’t have to look at him as he watched me.
