In time, life began to resume after a ferocious and loving Saturday together. This strap-on nightcap was a stunner. I grabbed for my iPhone, eleven o'clock, and certainly bedtime. I roused the family, everyone happily sated, Bella getting untangled from atop Victoria who was so well-fucked she looked like she couldn't move. I stood up and helped Bella regain her footing, still wet with sweat mixing with drying come on her face and chest, wearing that black leather strap-on with its black dildo at permanent attention. I whispered sweetly, though Zach and Victoria could easily hear, "That was a spectacular performance Bella, making unreal love to Victoria. She is obviously blown away, and so am I. I'm in-love with you. I want us to spend the night together, just sleeping, in the master bedroom alone." It was a big move that had nothing to do with having more sex, nothing to do with a Master speaking to his Sub. It was a communication stating clearly that I wanted to anoint our love affair, in another way. It would mean that Victoria would spend the night with Zach, in his suite by default. Another first, but with a very different meaning, and outwardly providing cover for this scary truth that was developing.
"Yes, I want exactly that," Bella whispered back breathlessly. That was all she said, and that was enough. Now it was up to me to push the buttons to make that happen. So I did.
"Zach, I'm going to help Bella get all this gear off, shower, and she'll crash in my bed tonight. Take care of your exhausted mother, and we'll see you both in the morning." There it was.
"Of course dad," Zach replied, comfortably. "Got it!"
With that Bella staggered toward the master suite, and Zach started to clean things up in the living room as I leaned down, kissed, and whispered to my wife. "Victoria, if you didn't hear that, I'm going to help Bella with the strap-on, then she'll bathe and crash in our bed. Zach's going to help you do the same in his bedroom. I'll see you in the morning as usual."
A groggy Victoria showed signs of life, saying simply, "Yes I heard, she nearly fucked the life out of me. Thank my girlfriend, and God do I need a bath too. I am wiped-out in the best way possible. I hope Zach can carry me." I wasn't sure how or if her synapses were firing right then, but she sounded like she looked, wildly well-fucked and ready to be carried to a bath and bed. Zach indeed picked her up, as he had Bella the night before, and they were off.
"Thanks Zach," I said in parting. "Be sure and shut all the lights out before you two crash. See you in the morning!"
Once in my bedroom, again I closed the door behind me, though Atticus made it through as usual. Bella was only steps ahead of me, not really stable yet. "Turn around honey," I said more in my normal loving voice. "Let me unbuckle you from that gorgeous contraption. What sounds best, a bath or a shower?"
"Oh please, run a bath for me, I must look a mess," Bella responded. "I am physically tired, but can't wait for you to bathe me, and towel me down. I am so in-love with you, like my life has just started over. Thank you! I don't know what to call you right now, you are of course my Master, and always will be, but I am also a woman in-love with her man. Guide me please!"
"We'll figure it out," I said, "Right now let me bathe you. We are both in a swoon. It is a new world, and it is complicated."
So I ran a bath, sat down next to the tub and soaked her body with white bubbles and love. She dropped her head fully under the water and as she came up, we kissed like the lovers we were. My cock was hard again, but it demanded nothing of her or of me. We just kissed, deep tongue-loving kissing. She was so beautiful, a Black beauty, slick now with water, hair wet and lying straight back. She looked like some black sea creature, with just a few suds clinging. I ran my hand over that creature's face, and stroked that wet hair, then out of the suds came two absolutely erected Black nipples screaming at me. Coming out of the water, her very buoyancy beckoning to me like a porpoise coming to the rescue of an ancient mariner. It was a priceless moment.
Standing, totally present, I began to towel off that Black body in my all white bathroom. So smooth, so supple, so strong yet compliant to my every movement of the towel over her body. I didn't dry her hair, I was enjoying seeing it held back against her head by the weight of the water as I stroked it now with my bare hand, her eyes wide open locked on mine. We embraced standing, two naked bodies holding on to each other like we were the last two people on earth, or perhaps this wasn't earth and we were living in a dream. In this dream state I lead Bella to my bed, minimal light bathed the bedroom now, and we found ourselves warm and happy pulling the white comforter partially over us. Lying side by side, facing each other, late as the hour was we talked. It was a new and refreshing talk, an endless talk.
