It was dark in her room. As dark as the raised ink of her newest tattoo. Making it all the more dark was the blindfold that pressed against her eyelids, forcing her lids to remain closed. Yet still she could sense that he was in the room, perhaps close by, perhaps leaning over her nearly naked body. The slow burn of the panic looming just over her horizon was intense. She could hear his breath, slow but deeply husky, as he moved around the room. This game had gotten serious then, and she wasn't sure she knew all the rules. In some animal part of her brain, she savored that thought. But it was hard to keep down the panic that threatened to engulf her. Her brain savagely raped her mind. The intellect is not always stronger than the emotional mind. But thus far he had not touched her.
Well, that wasn't completely true. He had touched her. How else could her hands have become bound above her head? And she had lain there and allowed it. No, begged for it. She was furious; with herself, with this man she barely knew, and with the situation now so seemingly out of her control. Had she really wanted this?
Her hands were held up over her head by soft silk straps of unknown design. During her morning ablutions in front of the mirror, she often held her arms up over her head, glancing at her breasts and how they somehow seemed more full and engorged in that pose. She knew she must look lovely, but she despised the thought that the position had been imposed upon her. She had been posed. Yet the straps held firm, not biting or aching but not yielding either.
She noticed with some trepidation that her legs were free. What could that mean? Though the ball gag stopped her from screaming, she could kick. And why had she not? What was it in her mind and body that somehow craved this lack of control? Again the anger rose and tamped down her fear. At least that helped clear her head.
She had met the man several weeks ago, an evening business mixer providing the stage. It wasn't the drinks – she had had only the two glasses of wine, not nearly enough to be truly drunk. It was his eyes. The look he gave her that reflected back all of her inner passion and sensuality. That look of intellectual benevolence and charm that kept her talking, long after her "elevator pitch" was delivered and done. He knew her somehow, though that was impossible; they had just met. His eyes were her mirror to her passions.
Yet he did know her from that first glance across the hotel ballroom. She felt that as intensely as anything she had ever known. He was aware of her. All of her. Her desires, passions, hopes, feelings of inadequacy and loss. All of it. And it made her weak. And angry. How could he have this intimate knowledge of her without her permission! He had no right! And why was she so drawn to him? So much so that she continued to seek him out at meeting after meeting for weeks. She was intrigued by this man and his innate sensitivities.
God knew she could have any man she wanted. She was absolutely gorgeous. Her beauty had grown and matured as she moved through her years. She was no longer what she considered young. But she was now more beautiful than women 10 or 20 years her junior. She had the ability to play the cougar and have wild love sessions with men still in college. And she blew the minds of these young studs. More mature men her own age found her irresistible for her experience and the hard won loveliness of her amazing body. She worked hard to keep herself this way, and it showed.
He, on the other hand, was no one's idea of the porcelain statuesque god. He was no ogre, but he was not as tall nor as fit as some younger men. He was a man of business and his time was valuable. He only rarely spent it in a gym, and his physique was not high on his priority list. He was no young stud, but his power and strength were undeniable.
But those eyes... He held the weight of the world in them. And he certainly held her with them. So she sought him out, again and again.
This evening started innocently enough, back at the same hotel ballroom where she first met him. It was another business networking mixer, and of course he was there promoting his trade. She found herself drawn to him as he entered the room. In fact the eyes of many women were inexplicably drawn toward the portal through which he appeared. It was as if he possessed some power or exuded some rare pheromone.
He bypassed the throng of business women (and men of course) and made his way toward her. He was like an arrow drawn to its mark and ready to pierce its skin. He reached out to grasp her hand, and as his long fingers touched her wrist it sent shudders down her lower back. His smile was bright and welcoming, and his eyes bore into her and touched areas she barely knew existed. She noted that he inhaled as he did so, deeply, and if he was breathing her in.
He chatted her up for what seemed forever and yet only a moment. She did not recall what either of them said, so enveloped was she by his gaze. She knew she would have him. She was a tigress in bed and in preparation for bed. If she wanted a man, he knew he was wanted and was always willing to be taken. The willing prey. She was a powerful business leader too, and no authority was given to any one in any situation not of her making. She chose when she led and when she gave up this lead. It was simply the way she was made. Strong. Resilient. Powerful. Lustful. And in charge.
Always.
But something about this particular man made her tremble. She knew she could let herself go and fall into him. This was dangerous for her, yet it thrilled her nonetheless. Her feelings made her nervous to be near him, and incapable of walking away – though leaving would undoubtedly have been the wisest decision for her.
Whoever had chosen to have this meeting in a hotel had given fate a leg up. They were mere steps from the bar to the elevator. And the key fit the lock.
She now understood. The denial of her complicity in her current position was false. She knew. She may not have wanted to admit that she allowed herself to be bound by a man she hardly knew, but here she was. Bound to the headboard, and naked but for the new black and red panties she had bought especially for this night. She had worn them to make herself feel precious, whether or not anything happened between them. The panties rode high on her hips, showing off her hot body to its best display. The panties were expensive too, their black lace hand-woven with red silk ribbon. Her pussy, shaved clean for this encounter, gave perfection to the line the panties drew on her moistening pelvic mound.
So she gasped when she felt, as much as heard, the rip of the fine lace as it was sliced through by a sharp blade. He had done this, violently cut the last vestige of her modesty from her. And somehow it not only released her pussy from its bindings, but something in her heart and mind as well. She growled through the gag that inhibited her speech. A low guttural sound that seemed to come from deep within her. It must have had some profound effect on the man as well, for he reached up and gently removed the gag from her mouth.
"I want to be able to hear your passion" he nearly hissed at her.
Her first reaction was to scream at him, something foul and vile to let him know she despised being this controlled. And still she could not. The gag was gone, but something restrained her from playing the role of proud and injured schoolgirl. She chose the part she would play, and responded in kind. "What are you going to do to me?"
He smiled as he removed the blindfold and intoned, "So you want to play this out, eh? Sooo happy to oblige."
As she opened her eyes and they began to adjust to the dim light of the room, she saw that he too was naked. And his cock was engorged and straining upwards toward the sky. It was not huge – she had been with many men who had longer members – but it was exciting and she knew he could satisfy her. And the most exhilarating part was that he was hard as stone, and all because of her. His eyes radiated that hot energy that had so drawn her to him in the first place. He wanted her. And badly.
