bemused look.
There
was something she was obviously missing. She began to smile along with him,
though, and moved back from him. She walked toward where the bedroom was and
the moment she stepped into the room she stopped dead in her tracks.
Chapter

“Oh.”
Suddenly the squeezes he’d given her ass had nothing to do with how wet she was
between her legs. That was all to the bar that was hanging from the ceiling
with the silk bindings on the edges and to the massive bed with the soft cuffs
at the head and foot. “Please tell me those are for me and no one else has been
in here?” She would likely have to melt and die if he’d had others here before
her.
He
came up behind her, slipping his arms around her waist to pull her back against
his body. “No one else has ever been in here. Only you, Cecilia. These are for
you, and you alone. I purchased them and some other items when you came of age.
They’ve been here since that day and never once touched.”
“And
will we use them?” She was leaning back against him now, loving the way it felt
to have him holding her like this. “You’ll show me how they all work?”
“Of
course. We’ll use them—often, if I have any say in it. Once we have a contract
in place between us so I know what you’re interested in, and what you don’t
want. And I can purchase more items to satisfy all your needs.”
“I
don’t know what I might or might not like.” Her face was turning red if the
heat she felt was any indication. “I’ve never been with a man before. But
seeing these makes me very, very wet and needy. Can we have in the contract
that we will explore all options and add the things I don’t like after we
experience it, if I don’t like something?”
“We
can do whatever we want, Cecilia. The contract is for us, and us alone. No one
will ever know what is or isn’t in our contract. We can amend it as many times
as we want so that it’s perfect for us.” Moving her hair to the side, Draven
pressed a kiss to her neck. “How are you doing, little one? You’ve had a
horrible day so far but you’re holding up surprisingly well, I have to tell
you.”
“Because
of you,” she admitted. “That’s the one and only reason I’m feeling as well as I
am right now. Perhaps you’ll be able to make me feel a bit better?” she asked
and tilted her head to the side automatically. “How long will it take for us to
draw up our contract?”
“Shouldn’t
take too long since it will mostly be open to addition. We can start it right
now if you want. Then we can decide what to do for the next couple of days
while we finish resupplying, and prior to the crew returning to the ship. For
the most part it’s us here alone except for a skeleton crew to keep things
functioning and keep watch.”
“Especially
since Bracken will likely have to remain planetside to keep my mother from
coming after me. He’s going to have his hands full, sadly.” She nodded then.
“I’d like to get started. I want to experience everything with you. As long as
you are willing?”
“Like
you even have to ask,” he muttered. He bit her neck, scraping his teeth over
her skin gently before pressing a kiss to the spot. “Hop up on the bed while I
grab one of my data pads. When we’re done we’ll grab a quick nap because, and I
hate to tell you this, but you look exhausted right now.”
“It’s
been years since I’ve slept more than an hour at a time. They removed the locks
to my door so I was never able to lock it and I’ve been too terrified of what
they might to do me when I slept to spend much time sleeping.”
“No
one can get to you here. They’d have to get through me first even if they
managed to get through that door.” Leaning over, he pressed a kiss to her temple,
then gave her a gentle push toward the bed before turning and walking back into
the other room.
She
trusted him in that. She trusted him with everything. Once she was alone in the
bedroom she
