“Yes.” Her voice quivered.
Levi smiled and turned her head to the side. He released her breast and leaned in closer.
“That’s what I thought, little one.”
Chapter Fifteen
Tessa was beyond wet as Levi stepped away from her, letting go of her face. She was having trouble calming her breathing as her stress level rose. Not stress from lack of enjoyment. The good anticipation stress, dying to be taken.
Levi cocked his head to the side, reaching up to take hold of his chin in a thinking manner. Tessa twisted her body slowly under his scrutiny. He studied her for a moment before turning away. Without speaking, he exited the bedroom.
She took a small step toward the door, obviously not getting far with her hands tied to the ceiling.
“Levi?” She stared at the door, listening. Tessa thought she heard him on the stairs. “Sir?”
What was he doing? Tessa stepped back, giving her arms a little more slack. She sighed, starting to get worried. He wouldn’t really leave her here, would he?
“Levi?”
“What happened to ‘Sir’?” Levi appeared in the doorway.
Tessa’s eyes went straight to what was in his hands. Levi was lightly tapping a pair of silver scissors against his palm. More worry slithered up her back as she watched him. Levi causally entered the room, his body looking wonderful with each movement.
His eyes danced as he neared her. Tessa took a small step back, soon reaching the limit the rope gave her. Levi stopped before her, tilting his head again as he looked at her.
“What are those for … Sir?” Did he really want her to keep saying it? Tessa thought, better safe than sorry.
Levi lifted the scissors up to eye level, turning them from side to side so the light glinted off them. Tessa took a shaky breath, flicking her stare from the object to his expression.
With no words, he reached out with the scissors. Tessa took a deep breath and held it, leaning away from his hand.
Levi stilled his hand. “Pet, you said you’d be a good girl. Don’t move.”
Her arms shook, but she obeyed, trying to stop all other movements. Levi nodded at her, his eyes sparkling with satisfaction as he reached out again. He brought the scissors up to the top of her dress and slipped an edge into her neckline. The metal just barely scratched over her skin before she heard the snipping sound.
Levi slowly cut diagonally and down the top of her dress, exposing her breasts. He stopped to open the damaged dress wide open. He stared down at her for a moment before continuing to cut the dress down her front.
“What are you doing? You’re ruining the dress.”
Levi stopped the scissors, which were now nearing the bottom of the thin fabric. “I bought it. I can ruin it. Plus, you are the enslaved one. You don’t get clothes.”
Tessa took a shaky breath and then quickly let it rush from her as he smiled up at her. Just his expression alone was drawing her orgasm nearer. Levi looked back down at her dress and made quick work of cutting completely through to the bottom.
As the dress fell open, he stood up straight with a satisfied smirk. Levi turned his head from side to side, taking her in. Finally, he nodded, grunting with approval before moving to set down the scissors. Tessa looked up at her arms before returning her stare to her man.
She took small steps from side to side as her cut dress swayed around her. Tessa tried to cross her legs to help cover her exposed pussy, but the stance was too uncomfortable to maintain. Plus, she doubted that Levi would let it last.
Tessa watched his body as he gracefully returned to her. His muscles tensing and relaxing, his eyes trained on her. Levi leaned up against her, pushing her back a step, making her arms straighter. He groaned against her cheek as his hand cupped her pussy.
“I could keep you my captive for a lifetime.”
Tessa inhaled sharply when he slid a finger through her pussy lips before slipping it inside her. Levi started a leisurely motion of in, out, and up through her lips with his finger. Tessa was dying to feel his cock on her and in her. Her chest shook as her clit tingled.
“You like this, love?”
Her arms trembled and a slow ache started in her shoulders. “Yes.”
Levi continued his finger play as he reached up to hold the side of her face. He took her lips in a slow, sensual kiss. Soon, his tongue was slipping into her mouth. Tessa could have died a happy woman in that moment.
A few more minutes of slow kissing and fingering, and then Levi pulled back from her. He gave her a twisted grin before taking his hands off her and stepping back. His eyes went straight to her pussy. Tessa took a step forward, giving her arms a bit more slack.
Levi went down to his knees, and she instantly tried to give that step back, but he grabbed the back of her legs, keeping her in place. He looked up at her before lightly rubbing his short stubbled chin against her inner thigh.
Tessa held her breath as he moved his face to her pussy. That breath rushed from her when Levi licked between her wet lips. Levi moaned as he licked her up and down. He stalled on her clit, flicking it with his tongue. Tessa gasped and pulled on her arms, needing to touch him.
“Levi, let me touch you. Please.” She rolled her wrists in the ropes, anxious.
He ignored her for a few more moments, rubbing his face into her as his tongue worked through her wet pussy. Tessa took a shallow series of breaths, feeling her climax on the fringes.
“Levi?”
Finally, he pulled his wet face off her, staring up at her. “You’re going to come in those ropes and then I’ll fuck you. This is my show, love.”
Chapter Sixteen
Levi licked her pussy one more time before leaning back and standing up. She watched him with wide eyes. Tessa’s arms trembled, and he knew he had just a few more moments with her like this. He stepped forward and gripped her hips under her torn dress.
Her skin felt cold compared to his. Levi flexed his fingers against her for a moment then turned her body to face the wall. This caused the rope to twist together, making it tighter on her wrists and taking the slack out of the rope. Tessa whimpered and went up on her tiptoes.
“Don’t worry, little one. A little longer. Just give me that cum.”
Tessa moaned as her legs shook. Levi swiftly pulled her destroyed dress off to the side, pressing it against her hip as he held her in place. This exposed her ass nicely with her arched back. With his other hand, Levi reached back and gave her a quick, sharp swat on her ass.
“Levi?” Her tone was breathy.
She leaned forward just a little, making Levi’s lips curl up. He smacked her ass harder, and her body jerked forward. Tessa moaned softly but that sound rolled into a louder whine as he spanked her ass harder still.
“Give it to me, Tessa.” Levi spanked her ass one more time, causing her to cry out.
Her body shook as Levi rubbed his hand over her heated ass. He then reached around her, pressing his fingers against her clit. Tessa inhaled a quick breath, and Levi rubbed her throbbing button. He clenched his jaw, working hard on getting her to come.
After just a few seconds of hard rubbing, Tessa’s body bucked forward. She put more of her weight on the rope and moaned loudly. Her body jerked again, and she was coming. Levi continued to rub her clit, gripping her hip tighter to keep her body from getting away from him.
Tessa whimpered loudly, and her body shook against his. “Aahh!”
A few more moments and her climax ran out. Levi stopped rubbing her clit and slipped his finger inside her extremely wet pussy. She whined, pressing her body back against him farther.
“Good, love.”
He fingered her a few more times before removing his hand, stepping back, and spinning her around to a more comfortable position. Her eyes were barely open, her breathing ragged.
He smiled at her. “Time to punish that pussy now that it’s had its reward.”
****
Tessa’s arms shook as Levi slowly ran his hands
up them. She was captured in his intense stare. His expression was determined but wild as he began to untie the rope from the bar. When her arms was free, Levi held them up for a moment. They were still tied to each other.
His green eyes were bright as he cocked his head to the side. Levi slowly brought her arms down between them. They heated immediately with the return of more blood flow and a bit of pain ran down them.
Levi let go of her arms and stepped back. He kept eye contact as he undid his jeans. He opened them wide and reached in, grabbing his dick. He pulled it free, lightly stroking it.
“All right, love. I’m taking mine now.” His grin widened for just a second before falling off.
He let go of his cock and reached out to grip her upper arms. Tessa opened her mouth to speak, but he gave her little chance. Levi swiftly spun her around to face the bed, guiding her forward a few steps. Before she completely reached the bed, he gently pushed her.
Tessa let out a yelp as she fell onto the bed. She bounced once, and Tessa quickly pulled her arms out from under her to make it more comfortable. She started to turn onto her back, but Levi was now nude and crawling onto the bed.
He grabbed her hips, pushing her back onto her stomach. Levi flung the end of her torn dress up so it rested on her back. Tessa reached her tied arms out, over her head, as Levi positioned himself behind her. He pulled on her hips, and she raised them slightly off the bed.
“Damn, Tessa. You are perfect.” He squeezed her hips before pulling one hand off her.
His cock was soon being pressed to her pussy opening. Levi squeezed his thighs against the outside of hers, making her opening tighter on the head of his cock. She was wet enough that he still slid in with little pain.
Levi moaned as his dick slipped completely inside her. He placed his hands on the top of her ass and wasted no time starting a fast-paced rhythm of thrusting his dick in and out of her pussy. Tessa turned her head to the side, trying to get more comfortable, but it didn’t help.
Her shoulders were aching as he pounded her from behind. Tessa whimpered loudly as he gripped her ass harder.
“Levi.” She twisted her body as far as she could to the side as he held her ass in place.
He exhaled roughly. “Sorry, love. You’re just too good to let go of.”
Tessa moaned, pulling her arms down a little bit, his punishing pace continuing. Levi’s hip movements were less smooth as he growled. He fucked her hard for several minutes before he thrust deep one harsh time, and he was coming. He slowly pumped in and out of her, his breathing harsh.
“Tessa?” He squeezed her hips one more time before stalling his cock inside her.
She only answered with a soft whimper. With his dick still inside her, Levi leaned forward and took hold of the rope around her wrists. Tessa pulled her arms down and over to her side as far as her position would allow.
Levi was panting wildly as he freed her from the rope. As soon as her hands could separate from each other, she pressed them into the bed, shifting her body more fully onto her stomach. Tessa relaxed farther into the bed as Levi leisurely slipped his cock out of her.
He lightly patted her ass and rolled onto his side beside her. The two of them lay there, breathing harshly for a few minutes. Finally, Tessa turned toward him with a small smile on her face.
“So, are you going to ruin all the clothes you buy me?”
Levi lazily turned his head to face her. He inhaled a deep breath and then let out a short chuckle.
“Who says I’m going to buy you any more clothes?”
Tessa brought her arms up under her chest and snuggled into the bed and Levi’s side.
“Okay, next time you can buy me something that won’t be destroyed so easily.” Her smile grew as she watched his lips lift into a smirk.
Levi rolled over and kissed her forehead before resting his arm over his head. “Okay, love. Whatever you want.”
Chapter Seventeen
Levi sat on the edge of his bed, smiling as he watched Tessa putting on one of his t-shirts. He’d have to take her home soon. At the very least, she needed to get her things, but she would also need to return to her real life before long. This fairytale tie-up game couldn’t last forever.
It could if she wanted it to. She could quit her job, move in. Those last two words had his jaw tightening. Maybe he was going too fast with her. Yes, he truly believed that she was the one he had been waiting for his whole life, but would this get stale? If her family and friends entered the picture, would he want this less?
“What?” Tessa stilled, now looking at him, holding his socks.
“Nothing.” He shook his head, realizing that he wore a frown.
“Levi?”
“I was just thinking about how you’ll have to head home soon.”
Tessa tilted her head, studying him for a moment, but it was soon interrupted. Levi’s phone chimed loudly from his jacket. He stood, wearing only boxers, and strolled over to retrieve it. Tessa went back to putting on the socks as he checked to see what the alert was.
There was a text message from Travis. The preview bubble only gave him the first few words, but they spiked his adrenaline instantly.
Your boss is looking for you.
Levi clenched his jaw as he brought his eyes back up to Tessa. She was watching him with wondering eyes. He walked over to his nightstand and grabbed the remote. Levi tried to look as casual as possible as he walked to her, holding out the remote.
“Tessa, find a movie or something for us. I’ll head downstairs and get us drinks. You want more champagne? Something else?”
She slowly reached out and took the remote, a small frown pulling on her lips.
“What was that?” She nodded at his phone.
“Nothing, hon.” Levi bent down and kissed the top of her head.
He strolled toward the door, pointing back at her. “Drink?”
Tessa cocked her hips to the side, pausing for a moment before answering. “I’ll take a glass of wine.”
“Wine. Gotcha.”
Levi exited the room, still holding his phone. He waited until he was on the first level before he looked at the full message. It didn’t say much more, only to call Travis. Levi walked into his kitchen and absentmindedly leaned up against the counter. He stared at the sink, running through scenarios.
He could ignore the message and ignore the fact that his former boss was looking for him, but he doubted that would work. Levi had never had a big problem with the man before, but he had worked with him long enough to know if he was looking for someone, he wouldn’t go away quietly.
“Fuck.” Levi closed his eyes. What does he want?
Levi held up his phone and texted back to Travis.
What does he want?
As he waited for a reply, Levi went to his fridge to retrieve a bottle of wine. Normally, he’d stand there and debate with himself about which bottle was the right one for the situation. Tonight, however, he just grabbed the first one he saw.
He shut the refrigerator door, set down the bottle, and moved to the cabinet to get the wine glasses. His phone beeped and he set down the glasses, picking up his phone.
A job.
I’m retired.
Word around here is you’re the only one up for this one.
“Shit.” Levi turned his head, staring out the kitchen window.
The moon was full and his backyard was an appealing silver color. He should be holding Tessa, not worried about this bullshit. If I don’t take care of this now, it’ll just fester. Damn it!
Just then, Tessa’s voice came from the top of the stairs. “Levi?”
“Yeah?”
“What type of movie do you want to watch?”
Levi took a deep breath through his nose, holding it for a few seconds before letting it rush off his lips. “Something funny.”
“Okay.” He heard her retreat.
He stared at his hands on the counter for a moment. “We’re going to need more than this bottle of wi
ne and a comedy to skirt this problem.”
****
Tessa sat on the bed, against the headboard, staring at her feet. What was taking Levi so long? Something was going on, for sure. He had been instantly distant and distracted when his phone had alerted him. Tessa bit her bottom lip, wondering if she should again go downstairs to check on him.
She turned, placing her feet on the floor, but just then, she heard Levi in the hallway. He walked into the room carrying a bottle of wine and two glasses. He gave her a weak smile as he continued to his side of the bed. He set down the glasses on his nightstand and started pouring.
Tessa turned back fully on the bed, watching him. “Okay, we have a few choices. Which of these do you want to watch?”
She pointed at the TV screen where several movie choices were displayed. Levi didn’t look up right away. He held her glass of wine out for her to take. His jaw was clenched tight. He was restless. Tessa leaned over to take her glass, and Levi reached for his own and quickly took a large gulp of wine.
Tessa watched him quietly. Levi set down his glass, placed his hands on his hips, and stared at the floor. It was clear to Tessa that whatever was going on, wasn’t going away.
“Levi?”
Finally, he looked at her. “What? Oh, sorry, love.” He turned toward the TV. “Aahh, the first one.”
She took a drink of her wine before sighing. This is bullshit.
“Levi, what’s going on?”
He huffed out a deep breath and turned to face her. “Start the movie. I’ll be right back.”
“Wait.” She leaned forward, her wine sloshing in her glass.
“Five minutes.” Levi held his hand out as he turned and walked around the end of the bed.
“Levi.”
He only nodded at her before exiting the room. Tessa stood from the bed but didn’t follow him.
“Fuck.”
