Her arrival was greeted by shadows borne of multiple flickering candles dancing around the otherwise darkened room. She felt his presence and knew he was close without seeing him. Although she was home, the surroundings seemed, somehow, alien. Her eyes darted about the room, trying to pick out familiar landmarks, to little avail.
She let out a small gasp when his muscular arms snaked over hers, entwining around her torso, pulling her small frame back against him. Her delicate hands shot up, gripping his sinewy forearms and she tried to greet him, but was cut short by two simultaneous actions: his right index finger tracing lightly over her supple lips and his warm breath at the nape of her neck igniting a small fire in her belly as soft, moist kisses left her neck tingling and her knees weak. Unconsciously, her grip on his arms relaxed and her slender fingers made their way to the short, reddish-brown hair on the back of his head while she tilted her own head forward to provide him better access.
As he continued to nuzzle the nape of her neck, her shortened breathing urged him onward. His hands slid back, cupping her ample, firm breasts. Her sensitive nipples began to respond as he manipulated them through the soft, dark fabric of her dress. His lips began to migrate toward the right side of her neck, biting gently along the way. A soft gasp escaped her lips as he bit a little too firmly on her earlobe. In apology, he hugged her tighter to his warm body.
What he was doing to her was intoxicating, setting every nerve ending on fire. She could hardly believe how much she wanted - no - needed him. She hated to let him know how electrifying his touch and his kisses felt, hated to give him that much power over her. The only consolation: knowing how handsomely she would be rewarded.
She continued scanning their home through partially opened eyes as he guided her toward their bedroom where more candles projected intermingling shadows on the walls and ceiling. She caught a very brief glimpse of their bed before she realized that his hands were no longer touching her and her vision had become blurred by a dark, silk scarf being placed softly over her eyes. She stepped backward, bumping into him, and brought her hands up to her face. She paused with her hands resting over the upper edge of the silken blindfold, debating about whether to leave it in place. Sensing her discomfort, he made no move to stop her, kissing her neck tenderly instead. As uneasy as being blindfolded made her, his response reminded her how safe and special she felt with him; not only did she love and respect him deeply, she also trusted him implicitly. She brought her hands down and then finding his after he secured the scarf in place, she brought them to her lips and kissed each finger.
He assisted her closer to the bed and turned her to face him. An anxious grin was softened by a deep kiss. Her mouth yielded to his full, soft lips as his hands roamed over the front of her body.
He broke the kiss and settled to his knees in front of her, his hands sliding up under the hem of her dress to the elastic of her hose, easing it down over her hips. He caressed the smooth skin of her legs as he teasingly exposed them. His mildly callused hands massaged her leg muscles while his lips and tongue paid homage to the soft ivory skin, continuing his torment over each newly exposed area until the hose and her shoes were completely removed.
With her vision completely obscured, it seemed as if her peripheral senses had been reborn in a much-heightened state. Every movement she heard, every touch she felt, even the scent from the candles was intoxicating. Unsure what she had done to deserve such treatment, she loathed to ask and break the atmosphere. Again, lightning shot through her as gentle but firm pressure on each leg indicated that she was to turn around again. Upon complying with his silent wishes, she felt his lips and tongue making a return journey, alternating up the back of each leg, pausing to pay special attention to the sensitive skin on the back of her knees. When he reached the hem of her short, silk dress, he began raising it, tantalizingly slow, up and over her now bare buttocks. The sensations of his teeth biting her firmly but gently almost sent her over the edge again. Sensing this from the rocking of her hips and the more obvious sign of her gripping his hair, he lightened his touch to keep her from going over the brink.
The heat emanating from her core had grown from its initial spark to a now raging inferno. As her dress continued its path northward, so did his loving ministrations, starting from the midline of her back and then radiating outward from there to her hips, finally taking a slow, languid trip up her spine, with special homage paid to her shoulder blades while he unfastened and removed her brassiere, making her literally tremble. She longed to beg him to just take her, to slide inside of her and bring them both euphoric pleasure, but she knew instinctively that he would not deviate from his plan of action. She was his plaything, but she was the one reaping the fringe benefits.
Once again his lips found a home at the nape of her neck, but this time she noticed something a bit different. Save for a pair of black silk boxers, he was nude. This time when she pressed back against him, she could feel the heat emanating from his body, fanning her own flames even higher. She felt so acutely aware of everything around her that she even imagined she could feel the hair on his chest lightly tickling her back. She had finally reached her breaking point.
Reaching back, she found his abdomen and snaked her fingers through the hair and, in one swift motion, down to his erection. She smiled as she heard him let out a surprised gasp while she very lightly ran her fingers up and down the shaft, as a pianist would stroke his instrument. Not sensing any resistance on his part, she decided to get a bit bolder and wordlessly stepped forward and turned around, dropping to her knees in front of him. She managed to keep her hand in place, wishing she could see, she compensated by running her fingers lightly around to his firm buttocks, allowing her long, brown tresses to cascade teasingly over his groin.
