Once she’d made her choices, she nodded and took a step backward.
Silver walked up and chuckled softly. “Not a fan of pain, huh?”
“I’d say more‘not a fan of trusting us not to cause too much pain’,” Black chimed in, as if the question weren’t meant for Sunny at all.
Silver picked up the box, thentsk’dbefore setting it in the bag. “Made a mistake on this one, Fox. It’s electricity play.”
Thatgot her attention. Electricity might have been the only way her ex hadn’t caused her pain, and she didn’t need to fill in the gap in her knowledge. She might have even lost her nerve if Silver hadn’t already put that toy away.
Gold took the gag, then threw it with the no-go toys as well. “No way am I gagging you, not this time. Not that you say a whole lot anyway.”
Her cheeks heated at the not-so-subtle reprimand.
Once they’d removed the few things they didn’t want to use, Gold moved the remaining toys to the other nightstand, besides the cuffs, which he tossed to Black.
Sunny had kept out the hook and loop ones, putting away the heavier leather ones that required buckles. Even these thin ones made her stomach clench when in Black’s hands. Somehow, they turned sinister.
And yet there was no doubt her cunt grew wet at the sight.
What is wrong with me?How could she want something so badly and yet be terrified of it?
Black crooked his finger, and she moved as if by instinct. She held out her hands, and he fastened the cuffs around her wrists, scooting the one from the club up so it didn’t interfere. “You okay with taking off some layers?”
She frowned at the question.
“What?” he asked. “What’s going on in your head?”
“Why are you asking me anything?”
“Because I don’t know you. Don’t know exactly where your limits are. So we’re going to go slow, and I’m going to ask you a hell of a lot of questions.”
“I don’t want to answer questions,” Sunny said, forcing the words out. She’d learned not to argue,especiallywith a Dom, and yet she made herself explain. “If I wanted an interview, I’d go somewhere else.”
“So what, you think we’re going to just fuck you and not give a damn about what it is you’re wanting?” Black asked, a joke in his tone that said he was egging her on.
Except she didn’t respond.
Gold cursed. “That’s exactly what she thinks. This is a bad idea.”
He’s going to say no. They all are.That fear in her stomach started up again, over taking the lust, and Sunny grabbed Gold’s wrist. “Please.”
He stared down at her, and even with the masks, she felt as though he looked right inside her, as if he were studying her. “You ain’t ready,” he said, then lifted a hand slowly to drag his thumb over her bottom lip. “I fucking wish you were, because there is nothing more I want than to strip that pretty little dress off you and taste every goddamned inch of you, but you ain’t ready for all that.”
His words coursed through her like flames, lighting her up in ways she hadn’t felt in…she couldn’t even remember. It was the way he said it, the absolute certainty that he could do it, that she’d enjoy it, the promise there that melted all the ice she’d filled herself with.
Still, she kept a hold of his wrist. When she spoke, it brushed her lips against his other thumb. “Ineedthis,” she said. “I can be good, I swear.”
He dipped his thumb past her lips, and she closed around it, teasing him with her tongue. So she wasn’t good with dirty talk, with saying what she wanted, but maybe this would convince him?
What man could walk away from such an offer?
His breath was warm when he exhaled. “You are a mess, ain’t you?”
She didn’t think he expected an answer, especially because the answer was obvious.
Yes, I really am…
Still, he pulled his thumb free, and just before she was sure he’d turn and walk away, he leaned down.
