"Want another beer?" Snow said as he headed out toward the hallway. Of all the things I was expecting him to say right now, that wasn't one of them. Despite the details of some of his desires I'd gotten earlier, I still had a long way to go in figuring this guy out.
"Um, sure," I said, pushing myself up onto my elbows on the bed as I watched him head out into the hallway. I had asked for a bit of a break, I supposed. I spent a minute staring at the open doorway as I tried to figure out just what was bothering me right then. Perhaps the thrill of fucking a near stranger was starting to fade. Or maybe the simple fact that I'd already cum twice tonight had satisfied my libido enough that I...
Oh fuck.
As I caught sight of Snow returning to the bedroom, gloriously naked, my libido came back in full. I found myself licking my lips as he walked to the bed, and I looked up at him with hungry eyes. Though as soon as I realized what I was doing, I shook my head and broke the gaze. My mind might have been ready, but I knew my body still needed a chance to recover before another session.
I felt one of the beer bottles gently touch the back of my hand. "Hey," Snow said. "You alright?"
Trying to relax a bit, I took the bottle from Snow. Before answering, I pulled the cap off of it and took a good swig. "Ahhh..." I said as I lowered the bottle. That certainly hit the spot. "Yeah. I'm fine," I said. I narrowed my eyes and looked over at him. "Though I am wondering about you."
"Me?" Snow said, raising an eyebrow. "I'm fine. What has you worried, though?"
"I still feel like I hardly know you," I said. "You're... guarded. As if you're trying to keep from letting something slip. Afraid it might ruin my image of you, perhaps? Or are you just always like this?"
Snow's face was impassive. He was silent for a minute, and then he took a drink of his own beer. When he brought the bottle down, he said, "A question like that makes me wonder if you're expecting to be disappointed."
I narrowed my eyes even further. "You're avoiding the subject again. Cut it out. Let's start with the basics: What's your job?" I didn't particularly care what he did, but if he was actually afraid of opening up to me about something as basic as this, then that could be a problem.
Snow seemed to shrug a bit in response to this, though it was hard to tell. "Bioinformatics," he said.
I blinked. And then blinked again. "Huh?" That was... well okay, it had crossed my mind it might be something nerdy, but I was thinking more along the lines that he was maybe secretly a computer geek, and was afraid that might turn me off. Well, maybe he still was. "Er... okay then..." I said.
"Yeah, that's usually the reaction I get," Snow said. He took another drink of his beer. "It's not exactly a conversation-starter."
"Well... try me," I said. "I aced biology in college... and... okay, so what's the informatics part?"
"The study of information. Essentially I study how genes work. I'm currently working on trying to determine the genetic factors which are linked to autism."
I blinked at this. "Okay, wow. You did way more than ace bio in college, didn't you?" I took a swig of my beer after I said this. I was beginning to feel like I needed it. Snow might have been intimidating in bed earlier, but this was a completely different type of intimidating.
"Yup," Snow said. "But what about you? What do you do?"
I shook my head. "Nothing special. I'm a technical writer - I rewrite and format documents to make them read and look official. It's not the most exciting job in the world, but the pay's good."
"Heh, we could certainly use someone to do that for us," Snow said, cracking a bit of a grin. "I guess that's one of the perks of working in the private sector. That and the good pay."
I nodded at him. After another sip of beer, I shifted closer to him on the bed. "So..." I said, narrowing my eyes a bit. "Are you planning to catch me off-guard?
Snow gazed back at me, then let out a brief chuckle. "Well, if I were, I certainly wouldn't tell you, now would I? But I'm also not going to lie to you." I tensed up a bit as he said this, expecting him to strike, but instead he simply took another drink of his beer.
Well, probably for the best. No reason to waste a perfectly good beer, after all. And it probably wouldn't be the sexiest thing in the world to get it spilled over the bed. Although if it were on him... I quickly shook my head to keep myself from licking my lips at the thought. I did soon find myself chugging my beer down, though, in hopes that we might be able to get to the fun part sooner that way.
"Heh, a bit eager, are you?" Snow said, looking over at me with a raised eyebrow. "You know, I never told you it would be tonight."
I blinked. Then I glared at him. "But I did tell you that if you didn't make my night worthwhile, I'd be taking things into my own hands." I took a final swig of my beer to finish it off, then placed the bottle on my bedside table and looked back at Snow. "You have one minute to finish your beer," I said.
"Or what?" Snow said. There was a slight hint of dominance in his gaze now. I was definitely on the right track.
"Not 'or.' 'And.' You finish your beer, and then we fuck. One way or another. Whether this is your prize from earlier or not," I said. I pushed myself off of the bed and pulled open my drawer of toys, taking out one of my pairs of handcuffs. If I caught him off-guard, there was a chance I'd be able to get these onto Snow. Not a very good chance, but I was going to go for it.
"Hmm..." Snow shrugged after a moment and then began to chug down the remainder of his beer. I smiled at him hungrily as I waited. As soon as Snow turned off to put his bottle down on the floor, I struck.
I leaped towards Snow, my hands shooting out to grasp his left wrist and try to cuff it. I was sure Snow would be expecting this, but he didn't make much move to defend himself. He did, however, make sure his other hand was far away, and his left hand wasn't near anything I might be able to cuff it to.
I tried to pull Snow's arm behind his back, but he began to resist this, and his strength was simply too much for me. He wasn't trying to overpower me yet though; he just kept me from doing anything with him. I let out a low growl as I looked over at his face and caught his gaze.
Snow's expression slowly hardened, and I had to suppress a shudder. "I'm going to have to punish you for this, you know," he said. I gulped down a bit of my nervousness, but I tried not to let it show. "Now, take this off, or your punishment will be worse."
I bit my lips for a moment. I wasn't going to be able to do much with having him half-cuffed like this, and I'd lost the element of surprise for now. I didn't really have much choice. "I'll um... I'll get the key..." I said, pulling back and turning toward my drawer.
I didn't make it more than a step though, when Snow reached down grabbed my wrist. He secured it in the other cuff before I was able to react, and I froze in my step, tensing up. "Just to make sure you have the proper motivation," Snow said.
Damn it.
This wasn't how this was supposed to go. Okay, my plan to gain the advantage while pretending to free him from the cuff probably wasn't going to work now. I had to come up with something else, or I was going to be in trouble here.
Think... think, Nathalie!
I walked toward the dresser as I tried to come up with another plan, but nothing was coming to mind.
Snow came up behind me, pressing himself close against my back as I looked into my toy drawer and tried to find the key. I could feel his cock pressing against my ass, slowly becoming more firm. No, I couldn't think of that right now. I had to...
There!
I grabbed the key out of the drawer, and moved to free myself, but Snow grabbed my wrist before I could do so.
"Pass me the key," he said, holding my wrist firmly. I spent another few seconds trying to think of a way I could turn this around, but I was out of ideas. Defeated, I dropped the key from my hand. Snow carefully picked it up, then brought it around to free his wrist. Not mine, though. "Alright, Nathalie," he said. "You won't be getting the worst punishment I have to offer, but you are still going to be punished. Both hands behind your back."
