She stands alone in the quiet room. Blindfolded, she is unaware of what is in the room with her, though she knows that he will be there soon. That knowledge both excites and frightens her. While she knows the fear comes from the uncertainty, from not knowing what to expect from him, she is excited by the mystery and anticipation.
Since she cannot see, she cannot easily judge time, yet it doesn't feel that it has been long before she hears the door open behind her. "He must be barefoot," she thinks, hearing soft footfalls approach. She turns her head as though looking for someone, hoping it is him.
The feel of his warm breath on her ear causes her to jump slightly. She is suddenly uncertain about how to react.
"You're really here." There is a hint of surprise in his voice.
"You doubted?" she whispers.
"I wasn't sure." She senses a strength and gentleness in his warm, slightly accented voice that eases her mind. Preparing herself for the adventure to come, she relaxes in the knowledge that she still has some control over the situation.
He takes hold of her firm hips, moving her to stand directly in front of him. With her back to his chest, he reaches down to kiss the side of her exposed neck. He smells vanilla and citrus, and beneath that, her own warmth.
"So, are you going to do whatever I ask?" There is a sensual rumble in his voice that sends a shiver down her spine. She can feel a hint of wetness starting in her core.
"No."
"I thought that was part of the deal," he murmurs as he gently kneads at the soft fabric covering her hips. The feeling of the dress gliding over her smooth skin is already causing him to twitch. He is looking forward to collecting on their bet.
"Not entirely," she whispers. "I always reserved the right to refuse three things."
"What things would those be?"
She gives him a sexy, teasing grin. "I don't know what you're planning to ask of me yet."
"I see," he says, amused.
His hands continue their slow exploration of her sides, feeling the heat from her body. She finds herself relaxing even more into his hands, enjoying both their strength and tenderness through her dress.
"You already know that I have very few boundary issues. Just play it by ear."
They are still speaking in low, restrained tones
"Are you warm enough?"
"I wouldn't mind a couple more degrees, but it feels fine."
"Then I'm going to remove this," he says, reaching up to open her thin cotton dress, helping it fall to the floor.
The movement of the fabric causes her to shiver again. She gasps at the sensation of the soft cotton sliding over her skin. When the neckline's seam slips over her nipples, she feels them begin to rise.
He steps back to walk around her, wanting to see all of her. This is something he has wanted for a long time, so he relaxes into the moment and enjoys himself, allowing his eyes to roam her body.
From the tips of her pedicured toes to the red curls of her upswept hair, her skin is smooth and pale except for the sprinkling of freckles on her arms and legs. Her legs are toned from years of biking and dancing, and her small ass begs for his touch. As he returns to stand in front of her, he spies what he assumes is a small birthmark on her outer labia, and smiles in amusement.
'Odd place for a birthmark,' he muses to himself.
"What are you doing now?" She sounds nervous. The loss of physical contact is an uncomfortable surprise.
"I'm looking at you." His gaze moves up her torso from the dip where her waist joins her hips to her full, creamy white breasts. As he focuses on her nipples, he notices the areola are pale, a subtle blush of pink on her alabaster skin, and a perfect fit for his mouth. He feels his cock twitch again, anticipating the rest of the evening.
"And?"
"You're... beautiful."
Her head moves, and she reaches out for him, trying to keep up with his voice.
"Are you okay?" he asked.
"Where are you?"
"I'm right here." He returns to stand before her. As his hand touches her waist, she visibly calms. "Are you sure you're okay with this?"
"I'm fine, really. It's just taking me a little longer to get used to the blindfold than I thought it would. I can't see you, so if you aren't touching me, I don't know where you are."
"I'm not going to leave you alone." He briefly touches his fingertips to her face. "If you're uncomfortable, we can remove your blindfold. You know that, right?"
"No, I just liked standing here with the contact, and you took it away."
Standing still for so long, her body is growing tired. She inhales deeply and stretches her arms above her head, hoping to ease some of the tension from her spine.
He takes advantage of the unguarded moment to slowly move his hands up her torso. "Better?" he murmurs, grinning.
"Yes," she laughs lightly. His touch brings fire to her skin, and she loves it.
With his hands just below her shoulder blades, he leans in and kisses her, nibbling and sucking in turn at her lips. Surprised, her breath catches, but she soon relaxes and responds to the gentle pressure.
He pulls her body closer to him, not moving his hands from their position. She enjoys the erotic sensation of his clothing brushing against her bare skin, and places her hands on his waist.
Before she can do anything more, he steps away, and she sounds a wordless complaint.
"No, not yet," he teases. "I think we're going to have to do something about you."
"What do you have in mind?"
"Will you allow me to tie your hands?"
This leaves her silent.
"I won't tie you so tightly that it causes you pain. You'll also be able to get out of it if you feel the need."
She thinks for a moment before telling him she will allow it.
"Thank you." He walks away, returning with a silk scarf, tantalizing her by drawing it slowly down her arms before loosely binding her wrists.
With her hands tied behind her back, he walks around her again, trailing his fingers across her body in a feather-light touch. She gasps, and goose bumps appear under his trace. Her nipples immediately harden further, and she can feel her pussy moistening even more.
He allows his fingers to dance up and down her body as he walks. First he draws his fingertips across her shoulders, then the length of her arm, along the undersides of her breasts, over her abs to the other arm, and finally to the small of her back. She shivers with pleasure and moans lightly.
"Do you like how that feels?" His whisper is husky with desire, yet he pulls his hands away from her. After hearing her moan, his cock strains within his jeans.
"Yes."
He is still moving, and it frustrates her that he isn't touching her. She continues turning her head, as if looking for him.
"What about this?" He stops behind her, leaning in to kiss her slender neck. She sighs as his hands move up to cup her full, heavy breasts.
Pressing into his chest, she smiles. Somehow he knows what she likes, and she is willing to let him continue.
Not wanting to let her get too comfortable just yet, he allows his hands to move about her body again. Change is good for a person after all, he tells himself. Why not try something different on her. It is always possible to return; those beautiful breasts aren't going anywhere.
"Are you okay?" he asks.
"Yes."
As his hands explore her body, she wriggles her bound hands until she is able to lightly massage the growing bulge she feels in his jeans. She murmurs her approval of his actions and turns her head toward his, seeking his lips again.
They kiss, and he wraps his arms about her, pulling her firmly against his chest. He slowly brings one hand up to her neck and just behind her ear, holding her in the kiss. Twining his fingers into her hair, he deepens the kiss, until he notices that her caresses of his cock have grown more assertive.
"Wait a minute," he laughs, fighting back a groan as he breaks off and steps back. "No, I don't think we need you doing that just yet."
"Don't tell me you weren't enjoying it," she teases.
"You have great hands," he agrees, adjusting himself in his jeans, thankful she can't see, "but it wasn't part of the bet."
"Are you seriously going to tell me that I can't touch you because I lost the damn bet?"
