He circled the bed and began securing the ties. “I need to hear it verbally. Try again.”
“Yes, I understand,” I said clearly.
He sent me an approving look that made me shiver, offering him a small smile. He tied both silks around my wrists and brought them tight enough my arms were pulled out and up, resting on the pillows. They felt firm on my wrists, but not restrictive.
He knelt, still fully dressed in his suit. One knee on either side of my waist.
The rise beneath his zipper was impressive.
But not frightening the way it had been when Osian had touched me. Perhaps because I knew Merrick only ever used his body to make me feel good, to praise me, to reward me.
The red silk slipped through his fingers. Catching on the callouses on his palms.
Then he slid it over my eyes and secured it. Pressing me back against the pillows with darkness all around.
His weight lifted from the bed.
There was a moment of nothingness…then his fingertip ran over the top of my foot. Circling around my ankle and under the bridge.
Oh God, I felt that where it mattered.
My toes clenched.
He clicked his tongue. “No, don’t curl your toes. Stay relaxed for me.”
“I’m ticklish,” I protested.
“No, you’re not,” he said, stroking the tips of my toes. “You’re trying to stay in control. Keep your foot relaxed when I touch it.”
I took a deep breath and forced my body to relax from top to bottom. This time when he ran his fingertip up the bridge of my foot, I managed not to curl my toes and squirm.
“Good girl,” he said. “It feels good, doesn’t it?”
“Yes,” I gasped.
His finger left my foot and his mouth replaced it. Kissing up over the top and working his way over my ankle and up. My heart was pounding in my ears by the time he kissed the underside of my knee.
His tongue slipped out, leaving a little wet spot.
My leg jerked. I’d done so well up until that point, keeping my body relaxed and still. But his tongue had sent me over the edge.
He hushed me softly and kissed just above my knee.
The way he was touching me was driving me to distraction. I’d never been so aware of every nerve and where it connected, every inch of skin, than I was right now.
My breasts felt hot and tight beneath the cups of my bra and my nipples tingled against the lace. Between my thighs, I felt wetness seeping into my panties. Stinging my skin.
As if on cue, his fingers skimmed between my breasts. There was a faint click as he unhooked it and slid the cups back.
I felt his gaze, even though I couldn’t see it. And it felt like sweet fire moving in a slow flush over my skin.
Leaving me so sensitive before he ever touched me.
Hot breath ghosted over my left nipple and the tip of his tongue circled it. So gently it was scarcely a real touch. He repeated the motion again and again, around and around. Until my ears roared and I trembled trying to keep my body still.
He lowered his mouth fully over it and sucked.
My spine arced and a whimper forced itself from my throat. He sucked a little harder and released it, licking once and then withdrawing.
