"Goodnight, sir."
"Goodnight, Nellie." Rick sighed. During his six month marriage, Victoria had allowed him to share her bed twice. Rick had thrown himself into his work but now, having Nellie around, he was reminded that he was a man and that men have needs. Rick decided to go upstairs and try to convince his wife to help him out with his need. 10 minutes (and one hellacious argument) later, Rick was slamming Victoria's bedroom door and walking towards the stairs. Rick stormed down the stairs, trying to rid himself of the images of strangling his mean, hateful wife. As he walked towards the study, he noticed the door to the basement and wondered what his beautiful Nubian princess was doing. Rick got a candle from the kitchen then walked down the basement stairs, looking for Nellie. He found her in the corner sitting on her mat, wrapped in a thin blanket, beautiful green eyes wide, tears streaming down her face. "Why, Nellie, what's the matter?"
"I'm scared of the dark," Nellie whispered so quietly that Rick almost didn't hear her. Rick stared at her, not quite believing what he was hearing. "What did you say?"
"I'm scared of the dark," Nellie repeated a little louder. Surprised by what he had just heard, Rick said, "I'm sorry Nellie. I didn't know. I'll leave the candle when I leave, okay?" Now it was Nellie's turn to stare. Rick chuckled. "What's the matter Nellie, not used to someone doing something nice for you?" Nellie wanted to answer him but knew the wrong thing could get her the whip. Rick saw her dilemma and sat beside her as he waited for an answer. While he waited, Rick couldn't help but notice that Nellie's blanket covered a nude and well developed body; very curvy just like he liked them, unlike his damn wife. Being this close to Nellie, Rick knew he would not be leaving this room without having her.
When Nellie realized Rick expected an answer she said, "Well...sir, I've never had anyone be nice to me before," hoping this was a safe answer and would keep her out of trouble. "I'll be nice to you, Nellie," Rick said as he leaned in and kissed Nellie on the lips, softly at first then with more pressure. Pulling away Rick said, "I want to see you." Nellie began to unwrap her blanket as Rick anxiously waited. As the blanket fell away from her body, Rick saw scars and bruises on Nellie's breasts, stomach and thighs. "Stand up," Rick told Nellie, hoping it was a trick of the light and that he wasn't seeing what he thought he was seeing. Realizing it wasnโt a trick Rick said, "Turn around, slowly," unable to keep the anger out of his voice. He was seething, unable to believe that someone could damage this woman's beautiful body. Nellie's back, butt and thighs was covered with scars and bruises as well. Whoever had done this to her didn't want anyone to know of his cruelty - he had made sure to keep all the 'evidence' in the areas covered by her house dress. Hearing the anger in Rick's voice, and believing she was the cause of it, Nellie began silently crying. Once the circle was complete, Nellie waited for her whipping. "What in the hell did they do to you?" Nellie, unsure what she was hearing, timidly raised her eyes to meet her master's. This man appeared to be hurting for her, but she knew this wasn't the way of white people. Rick wanted to tell Nellie that no matter what she would always be beautiful but didn't trust himself to speak. He decided to let his actions speak for him. Getting to his knees, Rick reached for Nellie, gently pulling her to him. He then began lightly kissing the scars on her thighs, then her belly and, last, her breasts.
When finished, he lay back on her mat and held his hand out to her. Nellie took his hand then lay down beside her master. Rick leaned over and softly kissed Nellie. "I will never be cruel to you, Nellie, and I'll never hurt you," Rick whispered. "Do you trust me?" Nellie, wanting to believe this could be true, shook her head yes. She also wanted more of what her body felt when Rick was kissing her. "When we're together like this, Nellie, I want you to call me Rick." Eyes wide, Nellie replied, "Yes, sir. Um, I mean Rick, sir." Rick leaned over, kissed Nellie's eyes then began kissing her neck. "Uunnnggg," Rick heard Nellie moan. He licked his way down her body until he got to her breasts. Rick began sucking on/playing with her nipples, alternating between both breasts until her nipples were hard as rocks. Nellie's breathing started coming faster and harder. Rick began licking his way towards Nellie's stomach and felt her stomach muscles contracting under his tongue. "I could get used to having a woman react like this all the time," Rick thought to himself. He realized he hadn't heard anything else from his brown skinned lover. He looked at Nellie and saw her biting her lip with her hands behind her back. "What are you doing?" Rick asked. "Trying not to move, like I was showed," Nellie replied. Rick was once again surprised by something from this woman's past. "Nellie, I want you to listen to me. I don't know what's been done to you before but you will not get in trouble for anything you do when we're like this, okay?" Nellie shook her head yes. Rick pulled Nellie's hands from behind her back, kissed both palms then placed them on her stomach. After giving her an "I dare you to move them" look, he went back to licking his way down her body. He checked to make sure Nellie hadn't put her hands behind her again; instead she was clenching her blanket.
