“Public sex.”
“Good with it. Actually, really good.”
“Anal.”
“Been there, done that. Use lube, please.”
“Jesus fuck,” he muttered, “I can’t believe you just said lube in a confessional.”
I cracked up laughing, which actually felt really good after the morning I’d had. “Lube offends you? You’re the one who said anal.”
“I’m really glad these boxes are mostly soundproof.”
I glanced around the wooden box, peering at the little gaps in the construction. I wouldn’t have thought they were much good at muffling noise, but then the wood was thick and heavy. Maybe that was enough.
“We could test that theory…” I mused.
He groaned softly.
“You thinking about my lubed-up ass right now, Zeph?” I giggled.
“Yes. But you’re avoiding the question. What if I climb through your window in the middle of the night, pull your panties to the side, and slow fuck you until you wake up?”
I clenched my thighs together. “Amelia is at her dad’s this weekend, just in case you want to try that.”
“Can I tie you up?”
“Yes.”
“Can I put my hand on your throat?”
“Yes, but no choking unless you tell me you know how to do it safely.”
“I don’t want to choke you. I…don’t want to risk taking that too far.”
I glanced at him, not exactly sure what he meant, but he’d moved away from the peephole. I shifted so I could see him again. “Tell me I’m safe with you. That’s all I really want to know.”
He sat forward, gaze clear and earnest. “Always. I’m never going to let anyone hurt you. Not even me.”
It was enough. It was all I needed. I leaned in. “Zeph. I give you permission to fuck me however you need to. Hard. Fast. Rough. I’ll remember the safe word. But the thought of you taking me anytime, anywhere? That doesn’t scare me.Youdon’t scare me.”
He swallowed audibly. “You scare me though.”
I nodded. “I know.”
I was giving him permission to do the things no one else had. I was telling him he was normal and good and sweet, even though he had sexual desires that ran dark. But I needed things from him too. He provided a security I didn’t feel anywhere else. He was someone I could let take the reins when I was too tired to steer. I didn’t want a man who needed me to take over in the bedroom. I wanted to submit to him. To have a man who knew what I wanted and needed before even I did.
I got to my feet, hooking my purse over my shoulder. The distraction had been nice, but I needed to get to my grandmother. “I should go.”
“I don’t want you to.”
I ducked my head so I could see him again and winked. “I know. But I think this booth has already gotten more than it bargained for. There’s only so many confessions that should be said out loud in one day.”

ZEPH
Iwaited for a few minutes after Lyric left the confessional, expecting another person to enter. But nobody did. I pulled my sleeve back to expose my wristwatch and realized we’d been talking a lot longer than the standard five minutes a confession normally took. Father Byron must have gotten through everyone waiting.
