The pulse in her throat beat faster. “Okay,” she replied, remembering the rules to give me words. I could read her body, but it was important that I had her verbal consent because her body might want it, but not her mind.
I leaned over her, being careful not to touch her as I placed the silk material over her eyes and gently tied it. Her hands rose and she touched it.
Her apprehension rose from the way her body stiffened, so I ran my hand over the top of her head. “Relax, orchid. I’d never hurt you.”
“I know.”
“But you’re still scared?”
She nodded. “Yes. A little. I’ve never been blindfolded before.”
I liked that she admitted that to me.
“Lie down on the couch, Savvy.”
I was silent while she shuffled around to lie back, putting her legs up. Once she was settled, I stirred the ice cubes with my finger, so she’d hear them clinking.
“I used to watch you dance in the gym before class.”
She gasped, and her hands went to the blindfold to pull it off, but I reached out and took hold of her wrists. Slowly, I lowered them to rest on her thighs, and she opened her mouth to say something. “Shh. Just listen and feel.”
She swallowed. I picked up an ice cube and droplets of water dripped on her skin as I held it over the top of her abdomen.
She sucked in air, her muscles tightening.
“I’d watch you dance by yourself through that tiny window every Monday, Tuesday, and Friday.” I lowered the ice cube to her nipple, circled it, then moved to the other before trailing a cold path down her body to her clit where I rested it there and let it melt from the heat of her body.
Her legs quivered. My cock was rock-hard, and I wouldn’t be able to take as long as I wanted before I needed inside her. But I had to give her something as she was uncertain about us.
I sifted around in the bowl for another ice cube and brought it to her mouth. She parted her lips, and I wet the surface before slipping it into her mouth with my fingers holding it. She sucked on it, and I watched her throat as she swallowed the small amounts of liquid the ice offered.
“When I watched you, it was like I could breathe. The anger inside me evaporated like the ice. It melted away with the heat of your body as you danced.” I withdrew the ice from her mouth and slid it down her skin to her inner thigh. With my other hand, I grabbed a handful of cubes and placed them on her stomach before I picked up the glass of warm honey.
I tested it first to make certain it wasn’t too hot by placing a small amount on my wrist. I dipped my finger in again so it was coated with the thick sugar then traced across her lips.
A moan escaped her throat.
“Lick your lips, Savvy.”
Her tongue slowly slid across the plush surface and it took every ounce of control I had not to fuckin’ kiss her. But I had to share one more thing with her.
“I’d never met you, but I knew what kind of person you were from the moment I saw you with Daniel consoling him.” A small sound escaped her lips. “And when I was near you, it was like… the hatred and anger, all of it was gone.”
I bathed my finger in the honey again then drew around her nipple before I bent and licked the erect nub before drawing it into my mouth.
She arched into me, and I put my palm on her stomach to keep her in place, the ice now a pool of water that dribbled down her sides.
“I stayed away from you, so you wouldn’t be ruined by me. I couldn’t chance you getting hurt when you were made up of all the goodness I’d lost.” Two wet stains appeared on my blue silk tie over her eyes. “I didn’t want to care. Caring and losing again… I couldn’t do it. But I already did care, Savvy. It was too late.”
Her breath came in short gasps as if she was trying to stop herself from crying, while at the same time, trying not to be aroused by what I was doing to her body.
“What I said at the cemetery about your mother was cruel, but I didn’t know how to be nice anymore. I wanted everyone to hate me. But you didn’t. You believed in me. I don’t know why, but I felt it.” I tilted the glass and poured honey between her breasts and watched the thick golden sugar trail a path to her belly button. “When you left, I changed. And a lot of that had to do with you. And the guys in the band. The music.” I inhaled a deep breath. “I swore never to find you because I knew if I did, I’d never let you go. I needed you to come to me, Savvy.” I swirled my tongue around her belly button then followed the honey upward. “And you did. And this time, I won’t let you go.”
