Then cold directly between my legs.
“Sevastyan!” I futilely wriggled.
“Back flat. Open your mouth.”
I was shuddering as I blindly obeyed. Cold water hit my tongue. I swallowed quickly, hadn’t realized how thirsty I was.
“More?”
I’d never had such delicious water. “Uh-huh.”
The stream returned, along with the tip of his finger, tracing my lips. I sucked the finger, drinking from it before he pulled it away.
Then nothing but sounds. The fire crackling. My panting breaths, his harsh ones. Moments passed. . . .
Against my lips, I felt the head of his cock. He was rimming my mouth as water trickled down his length. The visual of Sevastyan, funneling water along his shaft to my waiting mouth . . .
Oh, God, oh, God
.
I stretched my head up to suckle him, but he kept that luscious
crown from my tongue. I strained to free my wrists, needing to drink him dry . . . yet he tormented me, daubing the head to my lips, then drawing it away.
Another grazing contact, more cool water. The world began to fade away until only Sevastyan existed.
Then absence. No contact. I was about to cry out when his finger returned. I sucked it hard, swirling my tongue, letting him know what I’d do with his cock. He must’ve gotten the message; a growl broke from his chest.
When he withdrew his finger, I gasped, “Why are you teasing me like this?”
“My greedy girl wants more?”
“You know I do!”
Pressure against my lips. His own?
Sevastyan was kissing me with light laps of his tongue against my seeking one. I moaned into his mouth, but he kept the pace slow, languid, laying his hand over the side of my face. He broke from the kiss to brush feather-light grazes of his lips over my cheek, my chin, along my jawline, then back to my waiting mouth, to take my tongue with his.
The most tender,
romantic
kiss I’d ever received.
As if he cherished me.
He’d tied me up to use my body, then given me a lover’s kiss.
Maddening man! As his lips and tongue leisurely claimed my own, I thrashed against my bonds, desperate to grasp his head, to bury my fingers in his hair so I could hold his mouth to mine.
I feared I’d lose my mind before the afternoon was through. And quite possibly my virginity. Did I trust what he’d said, about not fucking me until I begged? Yes. But did I trust my promise to myself not to beg?
Perhaps I
wasn’t
strong enough to resist him.
He pulled away, brushing my hair from my forehead, adjusting my blindfold just so. “Lovely little Natalya.”
I sputtered, “How do you have so much control?”
“I made you a promise that you’d come harder than you ever have before. I keep my promises to you. Now, open your mouth again.”
I eagerly did, licking my lips for whatever he wanted to put between them. . . .
His cock. Without the water. Allowing me to better taste him. I eagerly lapped at the plump head, tonguing the moistened slit in the middle.
When he took it away, I thrashed anew. “Nooo!”
With one hand, he caged my throat; with his other, he thumbed a nipple. “Still.”
I somehow calmed myself. Then another sensation against my mouth. Tightly rippled flesh. When I realized what he’d given me this time, I shot up, moaning against his testicles, my tongue swathing the ridges. In my frenzy, I sucked one wholly between my lips, trying for the other.
“Uhn!”
He groaned long and low. “Greedy girl,” he repeated.
Again he drew away, depriving me. Of his skin, his flesh, his sex, his mouth. He’d deprived me of this world he’d created—where he was everything. What would he do next? How would he touch me?
I felt his mouth on my breast, trailing kisses toward my nipple. Would he torment me as he had on the plane, avoiding the tips . . . ?
Yet as he licked the globes of my breasts, he pinched both nipples. Hard.
Harder. Tightening down on the peaks. It was painful—blissfully so.
He rasped, “You like that.”
“Oh, God,” I moaned as he pulled on them—
Only to abruptly release them.
He leaned down, mouth and tongue wrapping around a nipple, softly suckling as if to kiss away a pang. When he released it, I twisted to arch my other breast to him.
A dark chuckle sounded against my skin, but he obliged me. Once he began tracing his lips down my torso, he left both of my nipples aching and damp in his wake—and me already on the verge of coming.
He reached my navel, circling it with flicks of his tongue, then kissing it as if he were drinking from me. As his mouth dipped lower, he laid his hands flat over my upper thighs, his fingers stretching to my mons. Like he’d done in the cornfield.
Reading my mind, he said, “I’ve imagined that night ending differently. I fantasized that you wanted me to fuck you there, under the moon.” He pulled my lips apart with such a sure touch. I could feel how soaked I was, how my folds flared.
His finger followed my wet seam, making me shudder.
“Ty takaya nezhnaya.”
You’re so soft. “So beautiful here.” My hips thrust hungrily, my exposed pussy empty. “How could I not want to devour you at every chance?” He cupped my bottom. With his ringed fingers splayed across my ass, he lifted me like a bowl to his mouth, then ran the tip of his tongue from my core to my clit.
“Oh, God, yes!”
One finger entered me as he licked. Then he wedged a second one inside. But he removed them too soon, too soon—
“Do you want to know what heaven is for me?” Those fingers briefly dipped into my mouth for me to suck.
My taste! My taste was heaven for him. How could that turn me on so much? Again he took those fingers away too soon.
Attention fully on my pussy, he nuzzled me, then tugged my clit between his lips, nursing on it so softly. My entire body was quaking. He’d imprisoned me with his bonds—and his mouth—keeping me on the verge of coming with an expert cruelty.
When his suction finally increased, the bud swelled till it throbbed against his tongue. So close . . . so close . . .
He released it with a wet sound.
“No, don’t stop!” It was a bundle of such unbearable sensitivity, I could feel mist alighting on it.
As if it was his toy, he blew on it. He played with it. Tormented it between his teeth. “So tiny, so luscious,” he said in a gravelly voice. “And it will make you do things for me that you’ve never dreamed.”
My toes curled, my fists clenched. How long had he kept me in this misery? I didn’t know if minutes had passed or hours. “Too much!” How could boundless pleasure be so excruciating?
He drew on me even harder. At last! Should I tell him that I was about to trip over the edge? He would deprive me of my orgasm, just as he had everything else.
Hide how close you are. Don’t let him know—
“If you come before I give you permission, you’ll be punished.”
I writhed with frustration. Orgasm denial, just as I’d read about. “I-I need to come.
Please
.”
“Say that in Russian. I love that word from you.”
“Pozhaluista!”
“Enjoy more of my kiss.” I felt his ragged breaths against my spread opening. “But do
not
come.”
Fierce licks over my clit forced a desperate cry from my lungs. Too late. I couldn’t withstand this. The wave was crashing over me—
“You’re coming?” With a growl of irritation, he sucked harder to finish me, tonguing me at the same time. My body twisted against my bonds, legs spread, hips bucking wantonly to his mouth.
Fuck. Fuck.
Sucking me so hard. Wringing from me the most powerful orgasm I’d ever imagined.
Just as he’d promised.
As before, my mind was . . . reset.
I lay, recovering from the staggering pleasure—but not sated. Instead of putting out the fire, that release had just taken the edge off, enough for my thoughts to briefly clear. The better for me to appreciate what he was doing to me.
To appreciate my submissive position. My helplessness. His mastery.
As I squirmed with after-shudders, he continued to lave me, savoring. “I taste your cum . . . could lick you forever.” His voice sounded strained. “But you orgasmed before I wanted you to,
moya plohaya devchonka
.” That meant “my bad girl.” As in naughty or . . . wicked.
And I was. For him, I was.
He pulled away. “I’m going to have to start over, to get you wild again. Are you ready for your punishment?”
In a dim part of my brain, I recognized that he’d set me up to be punished, that it was always going to fall to this—because he played games.
Was he playing for higher stakes than I could afford to lose?
“I
’m ready.”
I think.
I didn’t recognize my whiskey voice. Gone scratchy from my screams?
I heard a rustle and my eyes shot wide behind my blindfold. Was that a
venik
? One of those mini leaf brooms? What would he be doing with that . . . ? My questions faded when he ran it over my chest.
The wet leaves slithered over the contours of my breasts, the texture just this side of rough across my stiffened nipples. With a cry, I arched up—
Slap.
He’d whipped one of my breasts! “Sevastyan!” Then the other. “What are you—”
And again! The sting continued to intensify, but my nipples hardened even more, as if to tempt another slap—which he promptly gave.
Over. And over.
I almost demanded that he stop—but everything he’d done to me in the past had been too earth-shattering to be missed. So I gritted my teeth and took the pain for him.
While my mind struggled to assimilate my . . . my
whipping
,
he swatted those soft leaves over me repeatedly, the slapping sounds loud in the cocoon of the sauna.
As I gasped and shook, pain began to morph into a peculiar kind of pleasure. I couldn’t . . .
crave
this? I’d ended up enjoying his harsh spanking on the plane, but having my breasts thrashed with an implement was seriously upping the ante.
So why had I started rising up to meet each stroke?
He lashed me until my tautened breasts ached, my nipples throbbing as badly as my clit had.
But I couldn’t reach the brink like this. He was withholding any contact below my waist—more punishment for coming; I knew this as well as if he’d told me.
“Touch me, Sevastyan!” My inner walls clenched only emptiness. “I have to come again.”
“Do you want me inside you?”
I moaned, barely recalling why it was so important not to have sex. “Oh, God . . . I don’t . . . I can’t . . .” My lust-stupid brain spun its wheels, gained no traction.
“If you became mine, I wouldn’t let you go.” His words were clipped, as if he was biting back frenzy. “Understand me, if I’m your first lover—I will be your last.” The ringing tone of finality chilled me. “And I would kill any man who thought to touch what was mine.”
Permanent.
“Beg me to fuck you.” He lashed my right breast.
Trap!
In my mind, I saw him at the ready, about to capture me, to chain me forever. The hunter about to strike.
This
was what he’d awaited.
This. Why now? Why me?
“Beg, Natalya.”
Can’t think!
“N-no?”
Silence. Finally: “What did you say?”
“I can’t. Not unless you can tell me it’ll only be sex. With no strings attached.”
“I said you controlled this situation.” Tone gone sinister, he grated, “But
I
control
you
. I can
make
you beg.”
I whispered, “I know.”
My admission seemed to temper some of his anger. “Then why deny us,
milaya
?”
“It’s all too much. I just . . . can’t.”
“Then I won’t fuck you till you beg me to—outside of this torment. Because I’m playing to win.”
He makes the rules.
“This is more to me than just pleasure.” Another slap of the
venik
.
“Sevastyan, I don’t . . . I don’t know how much longer I can stand this.” Just when I was about to plead for mercy—or faint—I felt pressure at my core. A warm, bulbous object nudged against my opening. Despite what he’d said,
was
he going to fuck me?
No . . . that wasn’t his . . . oh, dear God, was it the polished handle of the ladle? I whimpered, “Y-you can’t.” I couldn’t think—because he’d begun to slowly penetrate me. “You’re . . . you’re doing this to spite me?” Diabolical man!
“I promised you unmatched pleasure, yet you took away my most effective means. Come now, pet, you said you needed something inside you.”
I did. And I wanted it deeper, but he merely thrust with shallow pumps, until my head lolled. He avoided my clit completely—more punishment. Still, I was about to come.
Slap.
Even as he fucked my pussy with the handle, he whipped my tender breasts. At that moment, I couldn’t decide which stimulation I would kill for most.
I
did
crave the brand of pain this man delivered.
