"Are you Mine?" He asked her. Not intimidatingly. Not angrily. Just an open question to ascertain that she was still committed to their relationship.
"Yes. I am Yours." She smiled sweetly, but genuinely, as she replied. Her eyes confirmed her promise.
His eyes scanned her face, checking for any trace of doubt or hesitation. He saw none.
"And are you still Mine?" She asked, mimicking his tone and furrowing her brow as she copied his gaze.
"Yes, my love. I am Yours. Only Yours." He replied, a playful smile dancing on the corners of his mouth.
"I am only Yours as well." She quickly added, a tone of urgency and earnestness creeping in.
He smiled and took her hands in his. They kissed tenderly, unhurried, as if drawing out the pleasure. "I have been imagining what mischief we might get up to this weekend. Perhaps we should have a glass of wine and share some thoughts?" He moved to the wine fridge to peruse the options. This wasn't your run of the mill hotel mini bar with tiny bottles that had a single glass of wine. This hotel suite had a mini wine fridge with full size bottles. "Red or white?"
"If there is a nice Chablis, white. Otherwise red." She draped herself on a chaise waiting for the choice to be made and her wine to be poured. Seeing her reflection in a mirror she adjusted her hair, tugged at her dress to show off her cleavage, drew back her shoulders and lengthened her neck. The luxury setting of the suite made her feel excited. It made her feel like she was being seduced.
He returned with two glasses of white wine, handed one to her, and sat down beside her.
Their glasses clinked in a toast. "To a wickedly dirty, romantic weekend away." She proposed. They both took a sip.
"Mmm. Wickedly dirty romance? That does sound fun. And quite in line with what I was hoping for." He replied, that smile back dancing on the corners of his mouth.
She could tell he had been plotting something. Coaxing it out of him was just the start of his game. "Did you, er, bring anything special, with you?" She tried this avenue of questioning first, while circling a curl of her dark brown hair around a slender finger with freshly French manicured nail. Perhaps he had purchased a particular toy. Or some lingerie.
"I did, my Love. I did. I brought a few special things. Some things we talked about, and some things we haven't talked about before, but... I really think you'll like them."
They each sipped their wine. He reached over and interlocked fingers with hers, bringing her hand to his lips to kiss it. They gazed into each others eyes. Their hands rested between them, still joined. His thumb rubbed her wedding band. She stared at it while he spun it.
"I wasn't sure if I should take it off." She said. Subconsciously she gently bit her lip.
"You don't have to, just because I took mine off." He reassured her.
"I know we said we wouldn't talk about 'them' at all. But.." She trailed off, letting it hang in the air, by way of asking permission.
"I know what we said. But we can talk about them, or him, if you want to. I just want us to make sure we focus the majority of our time on us. Because we deserve it." He said
"You're right. We do deserve it. You deserve some very special attention from me this weekend. And I intend to show you just how much I love you. And just how much you mean to me. Mine." Her eyes narrowed as she stressed the last word. Their promise to each other. Their way of committing to each other.
"Mine." He repeated, squeezing her hand in his.
They each drained the last dops of wine from their glasses. "Should I pour us another, or do you want to go out to a bar or restaurant?" She asked him.
"Let's have another glass here. I don't know about you, but I'd be quite happy not to leave this hotel suite all weekend. We could just order room service and lounge about naked all weekend and fuck each other senseless. How does that sound?" He raised his eyebrows and shrugged a little.
"That sounds divine." She tried to contain a naughty smile from spreading across her face. They kissed slowly and passionately as they both squeezed their interlocked fingers together tight.
She got up and moved to the table. He crossed one leg, raising his foot to rest on the other knee. He sat back with his arms outstretched along the back of the chaise. He was relaxed. Confident. Assured. He watched her move, admiring her figure in the red dress. He observed the outline of her ass, wondering what kind of underwear she had on beneath the dress. He looked for a hint of a bra strap beneath the thin string straps of the dress but couldn't see any.
Glasses refilled, she walked seductively back and set them down on the table. She smiled at him. His confidence was bordering on intoxicating. Not cocky, or arrogant. Confident. No doubt in his movements or voice. "Would you do me a favour?" He asked.
"Of course, my darling." She was only too happy to oblige him.
"I was just admiring how God damn fucking beautiful you look in that red dress." He said. His voice was like velvet. She could listen to him talk like this for hours. She had listened to him talk like this for hours. On the phone, seducing her with his words. Making her confess her inner desires. How she liked to be touched. How she longed for his touch.
She stood, hands on hips, allowing him to appraise her. She slowly turned, allowing him to see her from behind. She dropped a shoulder, tossed her long brown hair over it, and glanced back at him. She saw his eyes looking at her shiny patent red stilettoes, then following the long black seams on the back of her dark stockings up her slender legs to the hem of her skirt. Her ass. Beautiful and peach shaped. She gave her hips a little wiggle. His eyes continued higher to her back, her hair, her shoulder, her chin, her pouting red lips, finally meeting her dark brown eyes.
"Do you like my red dress? I bought it just for you."
"I do. I love it. I was just wondering though... what might it look like draped over the back of that chair there. Do you think the red would go with that dark emerald fabric, or will it clash?"
"Hmm. You know I'm not sure. Perhaps we should see? But perhaps I should close the curtains?" He looked behind him to the window. It was twilight and even though it was the weekend some of the office tower blocks had lights on. There were hotels and residential buildings but not too close.
"Mmnnn." He shook his head. "Let's leave them open." She raised her eyebrows and pouted before she nodded. Then she raised her arm reaching up to her side. She found the small zip in the seam of the dress and lowered it slowly, drawing out the sound of the zipper for as long as possible. Still facing away from him she unhooked a fastening at the top, and carefully let the dress fall down to reveal the back of a red strapless corset, slightly see through except for the bones providing rigid support. Then the dress fell lower to reveal a tiny red thong and black, hold up stockings.
Stepping out of the dress, she delicately bent down to pick it up. She opted for a tasteful bend at the knee, no mean feat in those heels, rather than a provocative lean forward to reveal if the thong would provide any modesty between her legs.
She slowly walked to one of the chairs at the dining table, and draped the red dress over it. She paused, crossing her arms, then raising one hand to her lips as if deep in thought. "I'm not sure." She said. "Perhaps it does clash a little. Maybe I should put it back on?"
"Don't you fucking dare!" He said, chuckling.
She turned to him and raised her eyebrows in mock surprise, cocking her head to the side. "Your call." She said, and walked slowly back to him. She was a vision of beauty. Long legs striding purposefully toward him. She felt the buzz of the wine. She felt confident. He made her confident. She knew her toned body filled the corset in just the right places. She stopped to pick up her glass, then slid in next to him on the chaise, as if this situation was quite normal.
He put his hand on her knee. They both looked at it. They both wanted it to go higher. He resisted the urge. She tossed her hair behind her and leaned her head on her hand, her elbow resting on the back of the chaise. She lifted one of her long legs up off the floor and stretched it out. "I hope you think the black stockings go with the rest of the outfit, what with everything else being red?" She asked.
