Following dinner, they strolled down the street hand in hand as they window-shopped the various art galleries and antique shops, closed for the evening.
At an organic coffee house at the end of the block, they ordered from a blue-haired barista, and then sat at a tiny table in the courtyard out back. Strings of white lights crisscrossed the space, and only one other table was occupied.
Judd smiled across at Jessi, and she waited, knowing he had more to say. “Now, Angel, let’s talk about expectations.”
Jessi smiled shyly. “Okay.”
“You can expect me to protect you, to look out for your best interests, always. You can expect me to always be honest with you. You can expect me to push your boundaries and help you grow. And you can trust me.”
“I do trust you.” She’d never said anything more genuine.
“I know you do, Angel. And that means the world to me.” His eyes sparkled in the lights overhead. “From you, I expect honesty. I can’t lead you if you aren’t straight with me, about your feelings, about the assignments I give you, about our play. You have to always be truthful with me. I also expect obedience. Without fail, without excuse, without question.”
He watched her eyes widen. “We can always debrief after the fact, but in the moment, I need you to trust me.”
His gaze demanded an answer. “Yes, Sir. I understand.”
“Good girl.” He took her hand, lightly rubbing his thumb across the back of it. “You’re such a good girl, Angel. Do you have any questions so far?”
Jessi chewed her lower lip. “You, um...well, I heard you say something about assignments. I wondered what you meant by that.”
“From time to time, I will have things I want you to accomplish. Again, these are things that help you, that grow you. Since we’re just starting out, I have a little list. After this initial period, I’ll probably only have something every once in a while.” Once again, Judd reached inside his jacket and removed a piece of paper and a pencil.
“For starters, I want you to get a mani-pedi on a regular basis. Every, what? Three weeks? Is that reasonable?”
Jessi nodded. “If I get a gel manicure, yes, it will last that long.”
Judd used the pencil to check something on his list. “Perfect. I also want you to eat three healthy meals every day. Snacks are fine, too, but you’ve been skipping meals. I know it’s been hard, but this is important. You’ll be keeping a journal, and one thing I want you to write about is what you eat during the day.”
“A journal. Okay,” Jessi responded, considering where she might purchase a journal.
“I also want you to journal your thoughts, your emotions, I want you to write about our play sessions...” He fixed her with a pointed look. “This is where that honesty comes in, Angel. I need feedback on how you feel about what we do. It will help me make informed decisions.”
“Yes, Sir,” she nodded.
“And before this weekend, I want you to go out and buy a new bikini. You have a beautiful body and I want you to show it off.”
He watched as she froze, coffee cup halfway to her lips. “What are you thinking right now?”
“Uh, I was just thinking it’s been years since I wore a bikini.”
He gave a satisfied nod. “Then it’s time. Also, I want you to start the PADI online open water course.”
At her mystified look, he laughed. “You and I are going diving, Angel. We just need to get you certified. You can work on the course at night. I have a friend who’s a dive instructor. As soon as you’re finished with the book work, we’ll have him come over to your house. We can do the confined dives in your pool. Then we’ll do a few open water dives and you’ll be set.”
Jessi blew out a breath and leaned back in her chair.
“I know it’s a lot. You can use your safe word. It’s not just for sex.”
“No, I don’t want to do that.” She shook her head vehemently. “I just didn’t expect... Well,” she looked up at him.
He waited patiently. “It’s a little overwhelming, but exciting at the same time.”
Concern was replaced by a pleased smile. “Do you like your assignments so far?”
It was Jessi’s turn to smile. “I like them a lot. Thank you, Sir.”
His eyes narrowed
“Good. Now, let’s get out of here. I want to claim my Angel again.”
Ten minutes later, they pulled up in front of Jessi’s house. “I want you to stay with me tonight, Angel. Let’s get Buddy, and something for you to wear tomorrow. You won’t need anything else.”
Surprised, Jessi looked to Judd, who winked at her and grinned.
“Yes, Sir.”
Chapter 30
Judd opened his front door and Buddy pushed past him, making himself at home in the living room. Jessi chuckled and tried to apologize. “Sorry, he just acts like he owns the place.”
“No worries. He’s always welcome here, aren’t you, killer?” He turned to see Jessi, clutching her purse and still standing in the entry. “Relax, make yourself at home. I just need to...” He hooked a thumb toward the stairs.”
“Oh, of course. I’ll...get comfortable.” She scanned a handful of photos displayed on his bookshelf before she sat on the sofa. Her gaze was drawn to the view through the sliders. The full moon hung over the ocean, reflecting on the gentle waves.
“Can I get you some wine?” Judd lightly padded down the stairs. He’d gotten rid of the blazer and his shirt was untucked.
“Yes, please,” she nodded, grateful for a little more liquid encouragement. The discussion over dinner had revved her libido, and the weight of the plug in her rear pucker added to the increasing pressure in her nether region.
She sat on the sofa, crossing her legs demurely while Judd poured two glasses of sauvignon blanc. As he approached, handing her one of the glasses, he noticed her foot jiggling and he smiled warmly.
“How are you doing, Jessi?”
“Oh, great. Tonight has been wonderful.” She smiled back, a telltale tightness around her eyes.
“It has.” He leaned back and sipped his wine, resting his left arm behind Jessi on the back of the sofa. She relaxed noticeably, releasing a quiet sigh as she also took a sip of wine. Saying nothing more, he lightly traced her bare shoulder with his fingertips, delighting in the goosebumps that formed on her arms, at her breath that hitched slightly at his touch. Eyes on hers, he hooked a finger in her strap and slid it off her shoulder, revealing a perfect, rounded right breast.
“Angel, you are so fine,” he breathed, taking her wine from her and setting both glasses on the coffee table. He leaned over her, gently pushing her back, claiming her lips with his with crushing intensity. He claimed her breasts with his hand, squeezing and kneading first one, then the other before sliding his hand down her belly to rest between her legs. There, he fondled her mound before delving into her opening.
Jessi moaned against his lips, returning his passion with renewed vigor. A moment later, she gasped when he moved his hand further back to tap the steel plug in her ass. Lust trumped embarrassment as a new flood of moisture released between her thighs.
Judd broke their kiss and leaned back, his eyes hooded with desire. “Now, Angel.” He pointed to the floor. “On your knees. Take out my cock and suck me dry.”
Without hesitating, Jessi slid to the floor between Judd’s feet, kneeling up to unbuckle his belt and unzip his pants. As she did, he slid the strap from her other shoulder, revealing her other breast as the top of her dress pooled around her waist.
Releasing his hard-on, she unconsciously licked her lips as she looked back to his face. Eyes on his, she stroked him, running a finger around the crown, dipping her head to lap at the pearl of pre-cum that waited at the top. Judd released a groan and leaned back, arms again resting on the back of the sofa.
Tucking her teeth behind her lips, Jessi eagerly took as much of him as she could into her mouth, tonguing the sensitive underside and sucking voraciously. With one hand sh
e fisted the rest of his length, using the other to fondle his scrotum. Judd’s length grew harder with her ministrations, and he muttered her name. Giving his sac another caress, she ventured further using a finger to stroke his taint.
“Holy shit, Angel,” Judd hissed. He sat up, taking her head in his hands. “I’m going to fuck your face. Take me, take all of me.”
With Judd controlling her head, Jessi wrapped her arms around his calves and held on for dear life. Forcefully, he pushed himself in and out of her throat, causing her to cough and choke. Still, she didn’t want to stop. She wanted his load, wanted to swallow his essence. Which is what she did moments later when he grunted harshly and exploded in her mouth. Jessi swallowed as quickly as she could, as thick ropes of cum jetted into her throat.
Judd stilled, continuing to hold her in place as he leaned down and planted a kiss on top of her head. “Good girl,” he murmured, kissing her hair again before releasing his grip and sinking back on the sofa.
Feeling pleased with herself, Jessi licked him clean and remained on her knees, beaming at him.
Judd looked down and couldn’t resist smiling back at her. “Well done, Angel.”
Jessi flushed with pleasure. “Thank you, Sir.”
“You’ve earned a reward.” His eyes sparkled with mischief.
“I have?”
“You have. And I’ll give it to you. After your spanking.”
Jessi’s mouth flew open and shut. Judd just laughed. “Your eyes, Angel. They say everything. You’ve been very good. But we can’t waste the ass plug you’ve been wearing all night. When I spank you while you’re wearing that, you’re going to soar.”
He stood and took her hand. “And after the spanking, I’ll take your pussy. But I’m finishing in that gorgeous ass.”
His gaze turned feral, savage. “You’re mine, Angel. Every part of you belongs to me.”
Jessi nodded. Her voice was husky. “Yes, Sir.”
Flickering candlelight greeted them as they entered the bedroom, and Jessi saw various implements lined up on the bed. She looked to Judd.
“I wanted to create the right mood, Angel. Candles seemed the way to go.”
Slowly she approached the bed and lightly fingered what she saw there—a black leather crop, a rectangular paddle also of black leather, a black suede flogger, and a wooden spoon. Judd stepped beside her and slid off his black leather belt, adding it to the assortment.
When she turned to him, his expression was bemused. “Told you I went shopping,” he laughed. “Now, you’ve been such a good girl, I’m going to let you choose what I’m using to spank you with tonight. So what will it be?” He stepped back and folded his arms across his chest, waiting to see her response.
Jessi blinked and looked back to the items on the bed. Her head spun with possibilities, but suddenly she knew the answer. Dropping to her knees, she grasped her wrists behind her back and bowed her head. “Whichever one would please you, Sir.”
“Angel, you please me more than I can say.” He stroked her hair lovingly, then removed his shirt, tossing it into the bathroom.
“I think...” He reached down to help her stand, tugging at dress gathered around her waist to pull it the rest of the way down. “I think we’ll get the biggest bang for our buck...or your butt,” he grinned, “with the paddle. I want you to stand at the end of the bed and lean over.”
Jessi complied, resting her torso on the bed, her head turned toward the slider overlooking the beach and the ocean beyond. In the dim light, she could also see herself, naked and bent over the end of the bed, reflected in the white sheer-shrouded glass. Her expression was wanton, needy. And she felt immensely happy.
Judd smoothed his hand over her bare bottom, pausing to tweak the plug. Jessi gasped at the sensation and felt the need in her core grow. She yelped when the first smack surprised her, but after that, she gave herself over to the sensations, the whack on her cheeks, the vibration in her ass, the tingle in her pussy.
At some point, Judd put down the paddle and used his hands to smooth away the sting. “Up on the bed and on your knees, Angel.”
Jessi complied, and he turned her to face the bank of glass. “Head up. I want you to watch as I fuck your cunt.”
She gasped, her eyes meeting his in the reflection as he impaled her with no further preamble. He pounded into her, all the while fidgeting with the red-jeweled flange of the butt plug. Jessi felt a release of fluid she was powerless to stop.
“Come when you’re ready, Angel. You’ve earned it,” Judd coaxed.
Needing no further encouragement, Jessi cried out as ecstasy overtook her, starting in her drenched core and radiating throughout her body.
“Good girl,” Judd murmured as her shuddering subsided. He leaned forward to kiss her shoulder. “But we’re not done quite yet. I’m still taking your ass tonight.”
Gently, he helped her down to her belly and slid her to the edge of the bed so that her feet rested on the floor. Using his foot, he pushed her feet wide, and he carefully removed the butt plug, wrapping it in a waiting towel. “What’s your color, Angel?”
She heard concern in his voice. “Um, green, Sir. I’m good.”
“Good. Very good.”
Next, Jessi felt a cool dollop of lube at the top of her crack and Judd massaged it around the hole the plug had vacated. That was followed by the pressure of Judd’s cock pushing at her entrance. “Breathe, Angel. Just relax and breathe.”
Jessi did just that, closing her eyes and focusing on the renewed sensation in her pussy as Judd pushed his way into her back hole. When his head pushed past her taut ring, he stopped, giving her a chance to acclimate before he pushed forward.
Jessi raised her head, seeking out his eyes in the glass door. She watched as he slowly pushed himself in to the root, and she saw his chest hitch as he forced himself to hold still again. At the question in his eyes, she nodded, and he gave her the full force of him, withdrawing abruptly, then slamming back into her, pounding her tight passage. He pulled her to her knees to gain better purchase, his balls slapping against her clit with every charge, and she felt her moment building again.
“Come with me, Jessi. I want us to come together,” he grunted, as he released himself for the second time that night.
Jessi saw sparks and screamed out her pleasure, continuing to shake as he slid from her grasp and collapsed onto the bed. Judd gathered her to himself, wrapping her in his arms as they both gasped for air. She snuggled in to his chest and he lightly kissed her temple. “I’m yours,” she whispered.
“Yes, you are. You’re mine, Jessi.”
Chapter 31
The ringing of the office phone startled Jessi. She’d been lost in thought, going over final arrangements for the fire chief’s retirement party.
“Hello. Sea Star Celebrations. This is Jessi.”
“Hello, Angel.” The voice on the other end was deeply masculine, and Jessi felt a tingle down below as well as a dampening between her thighs.
It had been two weeks since they’d finally given in to desire, two busy weeks. They’d managed to finally replace the dishwasher and do another couple of jobs from Graham’s list. They’d gone paddle boarding again, and Jessi had completed the online dive certification course and she’d had her first pool dive the previous day.
She and Judd had also gotten blood tests out of the way, so that when they sex, which had been every time they’d seen each other since that night two weeks earlier, they were free to do so without condoms.
“Hi, there,” she managed, smiling dreamily. “I’m surprised you called the business phone.”
“I like to keep you guessing. How are you today?”
“I’m great, actually. I was just making sure everything’s in order for the Chief’s party. How about you?”
“Oh, you know, work is work. But Chief’s party is why I’m calling. I want you to be my date.”
Jessi frowned slightly. “I’d love that, but you realize that I have to wor
k that party. There are a million things that have to be overseen so the event runs smoothly.”
“I just spoke with Sarah, who said she’d be happy to manage the party so that you can sit at my table.”
Mouth working before words came out, Jessi hesitated. “You called Sarah?”
“Yep. She’s a very nice lady, and she happens to think that you work too much. She says that she’s more than capable of running one party so you can enjoy yourself.”
In their partnership, Jessi and Sarah had fallen into a division of labor arrangement whereby Sarah did a lot of the planning and supervising weekend events while Jessi generally took care of the events that fell on weekdays.
“I can’t believe you called Sarah.”
“I just wanted to see if it was a possibility before I asked you. Here’s my real reason.” Judd paused. “I want everyone to know that we’re together. I’m so proud that you’re mine. Taking you to this party will let me introduce you to everyone, show you off.”
Jessi giggled lightly. “You want to show me off?”
“I want everyone to know you’re mine.” He softly growled the last word and Jessi’s stomach fluttered.
“Oh?”
“Yeah.”
“Well, then. Seeing as how you went to the trouble of arranging with Sarah...” She paused for effect. “I’d be delighted to be your date to the retirement party.”
“Thank you for indulging me, Angel. I’ll be sure to note your sass on your ass the next time I see you.”
Jessi laughed happily. “I figured you would. You have a great day. And please...be careful.”
“Will do, Jessi. I’ll talk to you soon.”
After she hung up, Jessi went to Sarah’s office and sank into one of the pair of matching chairs opposite Sarah’s desk. Sarah attempted to look busy on her computer, but her cheeks were flushed a light pink.
“So,” Jessi began, “talk to anyone interesting today?” She quirked an eyebrow for effect.
“Oh, for Pete’s sake! I haven’t even met him yet, but that man’s voice is sex on legs. How could I say no?”
