“Come here,” he said softly, but I knew it wasn't just a request. Trying to show the confidence that I don't have, I crossed the short distance between us and stood beside the bed.As I stood there, trying not to bring my knees together, he looked at me from top to bottom, and that was enough to make my whole body uncomfortably warm. He reached out a hand and ran his fingers from my elbow to my wrist. He pressed his lips to the inside of my wrist.“You slapped me,” he said. He looked up into my eyes and I swallowed.“Yes, Master,” I whispered. Hopefully calling the correct name will satisfy you. He intertwines his fingers with mine and squeezes. I grimace.“Before you, I never knew a woman who could get away with it.” My tears fell. I can't pretend to be brave anymore."Please don't hurt me," I stammered.He calmly looked at me with a smile on his face. “Well, it doesn't take much effort, does it? I was also depressed. That's no fun for me." I let out a long breath without realizing I
Johnny sat silently for a few minutes, trying to absorb the story he had just heard. What can you say? There wasn't any necessary information worth noting, but he was beginning to get curious about Eric and who he was.Eric seemed to be a man of great contradictions. Inconsistency, Johnny thought, did not justify Eric's actions, but as he sat there in Yena's hospital room, trying to ignore the tumult of excitement that arose every time he shifted in his seat or thought about it. Sloan, he wondered again if he had anything in common with that man. It wasn't a pleasant thought for orange, but it was there. He was curious.As Yena spoke, he recalled their earlier conversation about monsters being born or created. He believes they are made, as does Yena, but Johnny has trouble with the vague notion of cruelty, justifying further cruelty. Or yearn for it.In Johnny's case, he felt he should be able to subdue his need for sexual humiliation and dominance. His desires are remnants from his c
“Did he say anything more about this Narweh guy? Do you have an exact timeframe?”Yena shook her head, “Sorry, no. All I know is Eric was younger than me when it all happened.”“How do you know?”“He told me. We…we became very close at the last minute, Kudo. The last time he was here and Sloan had just left, I was afraid I might have made it all up myself. I was afraid that my feelings for Eric were just a way to survive. Then I thought about all the things he told me. I think about how people make fun of him just because he's been lenient with me, and I… I just don't think I made it up. Everything is real. My feelings for him are real.” Yena said."I can't tell you this or that." Johnny shrugged, “My job is to do the case, not to decide if your feelings are real or fake. It's not to say whether your feelings are justified, it's a question no one can answer but you."“I know, Kudo. I just…”“I see, Miss Ruiz,” Johnny said. “When this whole thing started, it was my job to take your tes
Without thinking, I inched closer and pressed my lips to his scarred flesh. Eric was very soft, softer than I thought given his firmness. Tiny, invisible golden hairs touch my lips and I smile against his skin. I've never been close to a man like Eric. Everything to him is a new discovery. Granted, most of what I know about Eric is terrible, but sometimes…sometimes I find him to be very gentle.I linger on his bare skin, curling up even closer to enjoy him. He no longer asked me to touch him. I think about the time he told me to touch him. At that time I hesitated. I hated him so much. It was amazing to realize that I didn't hate him so much anymore. I have a lot of feelings for him, and yes, hate is probably among them, but there are other emotions too, far more complex than simple hate.Eric was planning to sell me. I hate you for that. What about other things? I was surprised when I realized I could, perhaps, forgive him. I struggled with that thought day by day, hour by hour, tell
“Breakfast on the balcony, okay?” I asked with more excitement than necessary.He smiled. “What do you think this is, a vacation?” I felt my chest ache a little as he teased me. I think I'd rather go to the top like this. Not because of the teasing, but because of the way he smiled as he did so.“No,” I said timidly.He stretches again and puts his hands behind his head, then looks at me incredulously. A bright smile stretched his lips.“Did you…kiss me this morning?” The heat immediately rose, causing my face to change to eight different shades of red. I struggled to resist the urge to bury my face in the pillow.Kill me. Kill me now!I couldn't even speak, just shook my head emphatically, but the look in his eyes told me he knew I was lying."Have. I have." This time, his sarcasm was a little painful. I was really embarrassed, knowing that he wouldn't let go easily, my tears started to well up."No, I do not have!" I let out a breath and felt hot tears roll down my cheeks.He rolled
Suddenly, his touch became softer and he kissed me so tenderly that I wanted to cry again. “You are so wet; my boy is drenched in you,” he whispers against my mouth. I groan out loud at his words, and I know my mind has made up my mind.“Make love to me,” I replied. My voice sounded so foreign to my own ears. His heart thumped against my chest, and his masculinity twitched in my secret place. He took a deep, sporadic breath and pressed his forehead against my shoulder. In the silence, my hunger struggles with the growing humiliation of whether he's uttered some cruel word, or a silly joke. I will die.Finally, he lifted his head and looked at me. I couldn't guess the message in his eyes. He conveyed so much in a single glance: need, anger, confusion and something else. “Damn it,” he said.His shoulders sag a little, and I worry that this is the moment he'll say something that makes me wish I could curl up and die. I wanted to say something, maybe get the upper hand like, 'I was just j
Eric knew his weight was definitely crushing Nana, but he was still not ready to face this new and provocative situation. He considered it quite normal, especially for a woman, to utter suspicious things in a fit of intense pleasure, but he couldn't say that this had happened to him before. She said she loved him. She said it in an intense orgasm, but it was still the same. Even now, he felt the heat and the wetness of her tears on his shoulder. She did not sob, or sob. In fact, the way she was stroking his thigh with her fingertips showed that she was quite pleased, if not satisfied.Suddenly wanting to end his own discomfort, stemming from thoughts and feelings of heat and humidity, he moved away from Nana. She made a series of adjusting sounds as he pulled away, wiping the semen from her lower abdomen with the edge of her nightgown. She wrinkled her nose, as if it were the most disgusting thing she'd ever seen; he did not reply.He didn't like the feeling that was spreading inside
It seemed like a lifetime had passed since Eric was forced to obey the will of others: the last time it happened, it almost killed him. However, her clinging to him… was more than physical. "Kitty?" he said. "Yes?" Nana spoke hesitantly. “I came on you,” Eric said through a laugh. Nana laughed, "Yes." She kissed Eric's neck. "I'm stuck in this too." "Shall we shower?" “Sure,” said Nana. Eric entered the bathroom, first looking at the shower stall, then the bathtub. Both can serve their purposes, but each has its own appeal. The shower stall has a bench, the surrounding glass will trap the steam inside, making them comfortable when not directly under the shower. Eric fantasized about imprinting Nana on the glass. It made him lightheaded for a second. “Shower or bath?” Nana asked. “I was just wondering the same thing. Maybe it's up to me. It was my idea after all,” Eric grinned and turned to look at Nana blushing. She playfully hit him on the chest. "That right! I'm sure you'll
