Morning arrived way too soon. My eyes were reddened and sensitive and nowhere near ready to be opened. Regardless, I rolled out of bed and headed for the bathroom. While starting my bathwater, I went back to the bedroom to get bath salts and proper undergarments. After all, I could not meet Him without proper attire and he had been quite adamant about what I should be wearing.
I slid into the tub, the scent of sandalwood and vanilla engulfing me in a fragrant cloud. I washed my hair thoroughly before scrubbing my body. Then it was time to remove all excess hair. I spent almost an hour in the tub, removing hair from my legs, arms, armpits and vagina.
Drying off with a thick black towel, I stepped from the tub and grabbed the baby oil, which I massaged onto every part of my body. Next, I pulled on a pair of tiny, black, satin thongs; a black satin garter belt and bustier, smoothing the pieces down upon my skin as I situated them properly. Satin-topped thigh highs completed my ensemble. I peered at myself in the mirror, turning this way and that, making sure that my caramel skin was in perfect contrast to the satin which lay so pleasingly against it. I hoped He enjoyed the sight as much as I did.
He had warned me not to wear very much make-up, so I made do with just a little black eyeliner and mascara as well as a touch of blood red lip-gloss. I left my hair out in its naturally curly state, the ends just touching the tops of my shoulders; the red highlights clear in the morning light. When I finished my preparations in the bathroom, I went back to the bedroom to finish dressing.
The outfit was deceptively simple. A form fitting black Lycra dress, which covered me from neck to toe, cut high on the left thigh. A pair of high heeled, ankle boots and a blood red leather collar completed the look. I had no real way of knowing if I would pass inspection until I gazed at Him for the first time. With butterflies in the pit of my stomach, I headed out. I only had an hour to find the restaurant He had told me about last night on the phone, and I had never been in this town before.
After what felt like an eternity, I found the spot, a little place with tables and chairs outside. My steps slowed as I headed toward a man seated alone, dark sunglasses obscuring His face from my sight.
“Stop right there.” His voice, when I heard it, held only a hint of menace. I knew who it was, by the touch of laughter just below the surface.
I stopped, automatically; my hands going to my sides, my eyes downcast. When He stood and moved toward me, I felt the need to run, to hide, to cower in front of Him and beg His forgiveness. Not for anything I might have done wrong, but because His movements were so very right.
He stopped a few feet away from me and then motioned me forward with just a crook of His finger. My legs trembled unceasingly as I moved to His side. He motioned for me to precede Him back to His table and I did so, though I was nervous with Him at my back…even if we were in a public place.
Once the initial moments had passed and I had been seated across from Him, He ordered a light breakfast for us. The conversation was pleasant, as He did His best to calm my badly stressed nerves. He removed the dark glasses once our meal appeared and I finally had the chance to look into His eyes, though the glance was quick. He had laugh lines and a beautiful smile with the most intense eyes I had ever seen. That quick glance shook me, just a little, for those eyes promised dark things even while He smiled and laughed with me.
It was nearing eleven in the morning when we finally paid our bill and left. He asked me the name of my hotel and offered to take me back so that I could grab some comfortable shoes. I quickly agreed.
I had just opened the hotel door, when I felt His hand in my hair. My body went utterly limp as I dropped to my knees in front of Him. He pushed the door shut behind Him, all while tightening His grip in my hair and urging me toward the middle of the room on my knees. My body thrummed, small tremors coursing over my skin.
He let me go while He went to find a chair. The look on His face promised very dire consequences if I moved, so I did not. I kneeled there, awaiting His pleasure. He returned quickly, seating Himself in a chair directly in front of me.
“Look at me.”
I looked up, my eyes latching onto His face. He smiled at me, the most devilish grin I had ever seen in my entire life. I knew something of that grin, He had been nice enough to provide a picture of that particular expression months before.
