WIth a Twist: (The Club #9)

by Stratton, M.

  He came over a tucked a strand of hair behind my ear. “There’s nowhere else I’d rather be.”

  “Can you help me?” I turned around so my back was to him. With steady fingers, I loosened the binds that held my wings in place. Once they were free, I rolled my shoulders and turned back towards him. “There’s something I want to do.”

  “Anything.”

  I took his face in my hands. “I love you.” Not waiting for a reply, I leaned in and kissed him, simply enjoying him. Slowly, I started taking the rest of my clothes off until I was standing there naked, and only then did I stop kissing him.

  Making quick work of his clothes, we stood there naked together in the room that almost tore us so violently apart. “Sometimes to move forward, you need to go back.” I turned from him and climbed up on the bed. Getting comfortable, I held my hands above my head and placed one of my wrists in the restraints. “Can you put my wrist in the other one, please?”

  “Are you sure?”

  “I’ve never been more sure of anything in my life. We need to do this. I want to do this with you.”

  He carefully made sure that not only were my hands secured, but also my ankles. I knew he’d worry about me and I didn’t want him to. “Bryant, look at me. I’m fine, now make me come.”

  A smile played on his face as he leaned down to kiss me gently on the lips before moving down my body, teasing and tickling as he went. By this point in our relationship, he knew every single thing I loved and he used that to his advantage. First, by so gently licking and sucking on my nipples while his fingers teased my pussy. Then ever so slowly, his would apply more and more pressure, always backing off right before I’d come. Until finally, I was straining for release, my body tense and shaking, and only then did he bury his face in my pussy, his tongue hard as he flicked me. His fingers found my nipples and he pinched them hard, pulling them up as he continued his complete devotion to making me have one of the biggest orgasms of my life. I was completely helpless to stop him from making me come over and over.

  Only when he knew I wouldn’t be able to take any more did he finally slide into me, slowly and gently, filling me up. My fingers ached to touch him, but I couldn’t. Knowing the only way I could control any part of the situation, I clenched my muscles around him, enjoying when he moaned. Leaning down, he captured my lips with his, moving his cock in and out of me faster and faster until both of us couldn’t catch our breath and he finally arched back, burying himself deep inside of me as he came.

  I laid there happy and content as he freed me from the restraints and, just like a year ago, massaged my aching joints. But this was a good pain, where the other was caused by my fear and a masked monster, this was caused by love and my knight in shining armor. For a girl who never believed in fairytales, who never had the opportunity, I sure ended up living one. What Bryant taught me was everyone deserved their own.
