She had a strong sense that she could trust him and needed desperately to be in his arms and feel his body pressing against hers.She had a strong sense that she could trust him and needed desperately to be in his arms and feel his body pressing against hers. It was a fairly large, old house on a quiet residential street and it was obviously well cared for. Even in the dark, she could see that the lawn was well manicured and dotted with big, old oak trees. He parked the car in the drive and came around to open her door. He took her hand lightly as they walked up the front steps. He unlocked the door and reached in to turn on the hall light before allowing her to enter. When they were in, he closed and relocked the door then, escorted her to a very modern looking great room. It was clear that someone had remodeled the old house extensively and the great room had probably once been a living room and dining room. She turned and offered herself for the kiss that she fully expected. He took her (so gently) into his arms and their lips met. Almost immediately, their tongues were teasing each other and she felt a great welling up of need and desire. Too soon, he broke the kiss and stepped back slightly, holding her hands in his. "As I told you," he began, "I will expect you to do exactly as I ask. If, at any time, you want to stop, you must say 'That's enough'. When you say those words, our time together will be at an end and I will take you back to your hotel. Do you understand?" She was shaken by the stern tone of his voice and the seriousness of his words, but she nodded. |
