“Me either,” Brett confided. “You’re making me see things in
myself and feel things that are new to me too. I think we’re in for lots of
unknowns.”

She giggled. “Yeah, like just about everything we’ve done so
far. I don’t think I ever really had an orgasm before you.”

“I wasn’t referring to sex but, okay, I agree. You’ve
brought out a different set of desires there too. I’m looking forward to
exploring my instincts.”

“Me too,” Andie agreed rapidly. “Can I ask something? The
first night here, why did you call Shane instead of Jordan? I know that you two
are closer so I don’t understand.”

“Normally, I would have. But you were afraid of me. Calling
Jordan would have added five minutes at least. Shane may have been my second
choice but I had no doubt that he’d take care of you. If Jesse hadn’t been with
him, Shane would have stayed and done whatever you needed him to do. I saw you
with Kiley and Jordan at Max’s memorial. Shane isn’t as smooth as Jordan is but
I trust him.”

“So do I. I mean, I have to, right? I can’t imagine sitting
and talking with someone who walked in on us like that. And telling him why my
mother was screaming at you like she was. I guess his explaining why he and
Alyssa needed you to uncuff them really did make me more comfortable with him.
He’ll tell Alyssa what happened?”

“Sure he will but only because you said he could. I teased
them pretty bad about the cuffs so I expect them to bring this up occasionally
when we’re alone. I hope you’re prepared for what you opened yourself up to.”

“Before you I would have died of embarrassment at the
thought of such a conversation but I’ll be all right. I think I’ll even show
Kiley and Alyssa our playroom.”

“Don’t forget Jordan. He may have kept them from snooping last
week and he’d never ask but I know he’s just as curious as they are. I kinda
mentioned that you make me feel extremely dominant.”

“You were serious when you said you weren’t like that before
me.”

“Dead serious. I’m not entirely comfortable with it either.”

“Why not? I never would have thought I’d be into that either
but I am.”

“I really won’t ever hurt you. I do know the difference
between honest fear, like the day I carried you up the ladder and the fear of
anticipation.”

“Do you think there’s something wrong with me that I get
turned on when you scare me?”

“No.” He laughed. “We really are going to have to record
ourselves sometime. You need to see the way your eyes look when I’m dominating
you.”

“Okay. You bring out my adventurous side and I want to explore
as much as you do. I think we should see if Kiley and Jordan can come for lunch
tomorrow so I can thank them for staying close last week.”

“I’m sure that could be arranged.”

“And maybe after they leave, you can spend the rest of the
day making demands on me.”

“I think that’s entirely possible too. I’ll have to put some
thought into what I want to introduce you to next. Maybe I should ask if you
have any requests.”

“Um, well…”

“I can feel you blushing. Out with it, wench,” Brett
growled.

“Well, um, that first night, in the shower. When you were
describing some of the things you’d make me beg for. Um…”

“Ah, I take it one image stayed in your mind.”

“All of them,” Andie confessed.

“Then we’ll just have to make sure we get around to all of
them. But, if I recall correctly, some of them involved a certain opening that
is nowhere near ready for the things you want me to do to you.”

“Well, yeah, but…”

“But you figure I can start to take care of that tomorrow?
Mm, that will be my pleasure, wench. Yours too, I assure you.”

“God, just listening to you has me turned on. And I thought
I was too tired for any more tonight.”

Brett wondered if she realized that her lazy caresses were
making him hard again. He would have said it was impossible after the number of
times she already made him explode over the past few hours too, but his body
was almost ready again. He caught her hand and moved it lower. “As you can see,
this conversation combined with the way you’ve been teasing my chest is
exciting me too.”

“Oh my, I’m beginning to think you’re not human.”

“I’m not where you’re concerned. You inspire that part of me
to new heights as well.”

“Seems fair. Why should I be the only one turned on all the
time?”

“Trust me, wench. You’re not alone in that.”

“So next week, when you go to the station, you won’t kick me
out if I stop by for some steamy sex?”

“Not likely.” Brett chuckled. “In fact, I’ll encourage it.
Often. Why don’t you roll over now and let me slip inside? I think it would be
perfect to fall asleep with you holding me like that.”

“Mm, sounds like a wonderful idea.” She moved as he’d asked
and pulled his arms around her. “I think you need to hold onto this.” She
shifted so his hand covered her breast.

“Oh that’s nice,” he whispered against her neck as he slid
his other hand as he could cup her mound.

“Now that really is perfect.” Andie wondered if either of
them would be able to fall asleep, touching the way they were.

“Perfect.” Brett gave in to the urge to kiss her neck.

“Yeah,” Andie agreed, covering his hands with her own. She
couldn’t resist squeezing them so he would be forced to squeeze her. “Oh yeah,”
Andie repeated when Brett rocked his hips.

“Yeah,” Brett echoed as Andie increased their movement.

After they coaxed each other to another peak, Andie asked
Brett to keep holding her as he had been. “I feel so special with you wrapped
all around me like this.”

“You are special,” Brett insisted. “You don’t have to ask me
to hold you. I plan on spending every night with you in my arms.”

“That’s good because I planned on being your arms every
night.” She reached her arm behind her so she was holding him too. “And I’m
keeping you in mine so you’d better plan on that too.”

“Of course,” he agreed. “Don’t forget that I gave you my
life when you saved me so where else would I ever be? Forever, Andie. Forever,”
he whispered until they both drifted off for the first of many untroubled
nights.
