After looking around in the remaining rooms on the ground floor (the downstairs bathroom, dining room, and home office) she'd gone up a flight of stairs to the first floor. Beth had been worried that crawling around would begin to hurt her knees after a while, but she needn't have even thought about it, she realized. The entire floor was swathed in a thick and cushiony, light brown carpeting. Some doors were closed and to open them she would have sit up on her knees. She didn't know if she was allowed to do that so she didn't. Better safe than sorry. The first open door she came across was a library. Curiosity almost consuming her, Beth entered the room, on hands and knees, of course. She crawled through stack after stack, shelves of books, categorized by subject, genre, and author name. It must have taken Olivia a long time to build up a library this impressive, she thought, pleased that Olivia seemed to be everything she had made herself out to be online. After all, the last thing Beth had wanted was another wash up "date" with someone who didn't even have real interest in her besides having someone to boss around. That was why she was even still a virgin.
Beth had long ago come to the conclusion that virginity was not a big deal and losing it shouldn't be some long sought relief, but that didn't mean that she was just going to give it up. Old habits die hard, after all. She glanced at the small pasted labels on the shelves, searching for a specific genre. When she found it, she gasped. It was much larger than she'd thought it would be, if Olivia was even the type to have something like an erotic selection in her personal library. But she did seem the type to Beth. She seemed to be the type of woman who was free with her sexuality, free with her thoughts and feelings. Someone who was strong, strong enough to take someone else under her wing. Strong enough to be everything Beth had wished and prayed for.
Olivia's selection of erotic literature was absolutely delectable and Beth had an overbearing inclination to just sit and read until her eyes were sore. She was already tingly from her earlier episode with Olivia and, shy as she was, Beth had a soft spot for well written erotica. Soft spot may be too mild a phrase; she adored it and spotted many familiar titles that she knew could have her bubbling over very soon. Alas, it was her sense of politeness that got the best of her and after another few moments contemplating the titles, Beth felt it was time to move on to another room. With a sigh, she crawled out of the room, giving it one last look over her shoulder before she moved on down the hallway.
The next room sported a closed door and so Beth avoided it and crawled on further to the next open door. As the crack was not wide enough for her to crawl through, she pressed her face in to the gap and pushed forward so that the door swung open and she could enter. This room was a room unlike any she had seen before. She must normally keep it locked when she has guests, Beth thought as she stared at the multiple paintings and full sized photographs littering the room and mounted upon the walls. It was some kind of artists work room, maybe a show room, even.
Beth was amazed at the amount of detail and even more struck by the emotion in every one of the pieces. There were a couple that were almost like regular women, beautiful women, but regular portraits. Those were the minority. The remainder of the pieces all centered around two women: one who was the dominant and one who was the submissive. However these were not pornographic pieces and in fact there was very little nudity in them. It was the poses the women held themselves that told the story. Beth could see passion in the eyes of one woman who was kneeling with her counterpart's foot cradled in her soft hands, her lips only about an inch from her toes and she could see the love in the eyes of another woman who gripped a painful looking hand full of her submissive's hair while her other hand grasped a pale nipple. She doubted that she had ever been affected by any other work of art as soundly as these photos and paintings struck a cord in heart.
Though she felt almost frozen to the very spot of carpet on which she knelt, Beth remembered two more open doors in the hallway and desperately wanted to see what else Olivia could be hiding in her wonderful home. Unfortunately it seemed that the wonders of Olivia's home were done and all Beth found in the remaining two rooms was an empty spare room and another bathroom. Thus she'd determined that the bedroom had to be one of the two doors that had their doors closed. A nosiness she'd not known before burning within her, Beth crawled over to the door nearest to her and furthest from the stairs. She knelt up and grasped the knob in her hand. It felt a little strange to be using her hands when she'd not even thought about it for so long. The door was locked.
