“Your friend Emma was more than happy to point me in the right direction once I made her believe I had
an interest in you,” he replied, his eyes hooded, viewing her exposed form. “Granted,
she thought it was a romantic attraction. I didn’t have the heart to tell
her otherwise. And, I don’t think I’ll release you. I quite like you this way.” He sat on the edge of the
bed and raked his fingers along her foot, up her ankle and along her calf.
She squirmed beneath his touch, her body involuntarily reacting to his caress out of habit. No, not again. She
couldn’t succumb to his charm, his false love. Of course at any time she
could break the ropes that bound her but the feat would give her away. “Please. Just let me go,” she pleaded, jerking her leg from his lips, which had replaced
his hand, but since she could only move a matter of inches his mouth reclaimed its position near her knee. “Let me go. You have your rock back so why keep me?”
“Because you intrigue me.” He trailed his tongue up
her thigh, stopping short of where her legs met. “You’re different
than most women. Usually I can get the sense of a person. You are a closed book, a book I want to crack open and read…and to savor.”
His tongue darted in and lapped the fissure of her labia.
Her hips rose off the bed and he chuckled, his breath drifted over her pubes.
A delightful shudder racked her body. He chortled again and rested his
chin on her right above the border of her pubic hair.
“Mmmm, sweet,” he said in a deep, sultry voice. “As
for why I’m going to keep you. Well, you’re going to stay here until
you tell me why you took my favorite stone.”
