“What? You don’t want me to fuck you here in public do you?”
Her eyes widened. “Well, no…”
“Because if that’s what you want, I can take you to a safer place where it’s allowed,” I suggested, ignoring her. I knew she wasn’t into public humiliation but I needed to always remind her that she was in control. I would do anything to please her. To make sure that she was aware that she could tell me her kink and if I didn’t know what to do, I would make damn sure I would find out.
“No. I don’t want that,” she said quickly. A little too quickly for my liking. “I don’t want to be spread out for everyone to see. I don’t want them to hear my screams. I…I…”
“Hey,” I cupped her face, kissing her softly on the mouth. “Breath, beautiful girl. That won’t happen. I promise. What we do is between us. I promise you that, Marketa. But I also promise you that I will make sure you are happy. And I’m willing to try anything once.”
“No. Please not that.” She shook her head.
“Hard limit?” I asked gently.
“Yes.” She nodded. “Too much of a trigger. Please don’t make me. Not again.”
Shit. I tilted her head, forcing her to look at me. “Never. I promise.”
Her chin quivered but she let out a soft sigh. “Please don’t hurt me like they did.”
Bile rose to my throat at the desperation in her voice. “You have my fucking word. Everything we do is because you consent. Before. During. After. Every single day. Even when we aren’t together, remember you have consent over everything you do. We both have trust issues, we both have doubts, but please don’t doubt my love for you.”
“Then don’t doubt mine,” she pleaded, cupping my hands and kissed my palms.
“I promise to work on it,” I muttered, knowing full well that was going to be hard.
“We will work on it together.”
God, I loved her. “Definitely.”
A heavy cloud had settled over us in our attempt at having a little sunshine in our lives.
“I’m sorry for freaking out.” Mae shook herself, rubbing her hands up and down her arms.
“Don’t be sorry. If we didn’t have these talks, I would never know if I was doing something wrong. Or the other way around. Communication is key.”
“Says a man who doesn’t like talking.”
“I like talking to you,” I corrected. “I need to talk to you.” Which reminded me that I had to go into work tomorrow. Yay. Fucking. Me.
“I’m glad.” She smiled. “Now about this dress…”
(Mae)
“Matteo…I’m not sure about this,” I called out from inside the dressing room. I spun in circles, looking over and over at my reflection in the mirror.
“You’re breathtaking no matter what.”
I let out a frustrated sigh. The dress was beautiful but I was short and curvy. Well I was average height standing at 5’5” but compared to Matteo, I felt small. Which was probably a good thing. God, my brain was going off on a tangent. The dress was black, hugging my curves but it still didn’t feel right.
Matteo peaked his head in, his eyes widening and then darkening suddenly. Something flashed in his gaze as it roamed down the length of my body.
I swallowed hard, learning rather quickly what that look meant. “What do you think?”
“If we were at my place, I’d fuck you, forcing you to watch me destroy your body,” he said on a raspy growl.
I inhaled a gasp, looking back at my reflection. The black dress was casual but the way it pushed up my breasts, gave it a sexy appeal.
His words always so honest and inviting, sent a flutter of desire tingling between my legs. “So you’re happy with the dress?” I teased, spinning in a circle.
“Oh yes. And I plan on doing nasty things to you in it.”
My cheeks heated. “Just please don’t ruin it. I’d like to keep it.”
“Deal.” Matteo leaned towards me, kissing the spot between my cleavage.
“Hmm…” Running my fingers through his hair, I gave the soft strands a light tug. A sharp pinch exploded through the flesh of my breast forcing a cry to leave my lips.
He lifted his head, a slight smirk spreading on his gorgeous rugged face.
I glanced down where he had bit me, a bruise slowly forming on my pale skin.
“Now people will know that you belong to someone.” He swept his tongue lightly over the mark, easing the sting his teeth had provided.
