‘They couldn’t care if you ate it with your fingers. If you’re really worried, I could get you to kneel next to me and feed you from my plate?’ Dimples showed as I squirmed at his words.
‘Why does that sound so hot?’
‘Because degradation makes you wet.’
‘That’s weird, right?’
‘No odder than your tears making me hard. People have all sorts of kinks, and as long as everyone involved is on the same page, then it’s fine to lean into them.’
A guy in a swish red jacket came to offer us his first chosen wine. I smiled politely as he poured a small amount into both of our glasses while giving a long spiel about what it was. It was white and tasted nice—the rest went right over my head.
‘How did you first get into all the, you know, pain stuff?’
Ewen cleared his throat and took a sip of wine. ‘As a kid, I always felt kind of overlooked. Like I was there to watch everyone else. I lost my virginity to a woman a few years older who was into being hurt. Choked. Spat on. She liked it rough. When I gave her what she wanted, she looked at me like I was a god. She saw me. That feeling was addictive. As I chased it, I found that I enjoyed inflicting pain, knowing that someone would open themselves to it and still beg me for more. The power is a rush that’s hard to find anywhere else.’
A bitter jealousy burned in my stomach at the thought of him with others, and I took a sip of wine.
‘Why are you pouting, Cora?’
‘I’m jealous.’
‘Of?’
‘You, being with other women.’
‘If I hadn’t spent the years learning who I am, I wouldn’t have been able to give you what you wanted. They paved the way so that I was ready for you.’
Beneath the grouch, he was such a fucking charmer.
‘Did you fuck any of them in your library?’
‘No, my jealous little liar, I’ve never brought anyone else home. I’ve also never taken any of them on a date before. You’re my first.’
‘You’ve never dated?’
‘I never understood the compulsion.’
Heat washed through me, and I couldn’t help but smile. ‘And now you do?’
‘I can’t imagine not wanting to be around you. Even when we’re not fucking. That’s very new for me.’
Two hours later, I was feeling giddy from the wine and stuffed with the most delicious food I’d ever tasted.
‘Can I take a selfie of us?’ I asked. ‘I want to remember this. It’s the best place I think I’ve ever been.’
‘Not for my sparking company?’ Ewen said, leaning back in his chair.
‘That too, I guess.’
‘Mmm, come get your ass in my lap.’
Sliding onto his lap sent a fresh wave of desire through me. Ewen wrapped a hand around my stomach and pulled me tight to him.
We looked cute on my phone screen as I held it up and got us both in the frame. The candles sparkled behind us as I snapped a photo.
‘You’re not even looking,’ I said as he buried his face in my neck, nipping lightly with his teeth.
‘You smell fucking incredible,’ he growled. His fingers slid up my thigh and under my dress, stroking against the front of my panties.
