“Does their varied menu include triple cheeseburgers?”Wave asked a bit sheepishly.The place he was describing sounded really nice.

Jarred roared out a laugh.“No.They have amazing salads and pasta, but no burgers or fries.For that, we need to go to Lark’s.”

“But—”

“Lark’s is fine with me, precious.”

“Are you sure?”

“Yes.Now, hop on and let’s move.I’m already over my mandatory lunch time, and Justin is going to harp on me.”

“Why?”

“He claims I become hangry easily.”

“Heavens!We can’t have that.”Wave smacked his ass.“Hurry up, pet.”

Beingcontentwasn’tafeeling Wave was used to, but that’s what she was.

Jarred held her hand as they moseyed over to the bike; her craving for melted cheese had been satisfied, and some echoes of her earlier activities still trembled through her pussy every now and then.

He had kept the conversation light while she munched on her food, making happy sounds in the middle, and stole some of his sweet potato fries.Instead of complaining, he had ordered a second helping of fries and onion rings to share.

“Ugh, I think I ate too much,” Wave confessed when she eyed the bike.How was she going to get on now?

“Here.”Jarred moved behind her and simply lifted her onto the bike.“There.”

“Hmph.”

“Problem, precious?”

“No.Now, let’s go buy you your reward.”

The smile that spread over Jarred’s mouth made Wave tingle.“I know just the place.It’s smaller but caters to, well, a wider audience, if you will.”

“Dildos tailored to trolls and restraints to hold a demon?”

“And more.All spelled to work only in consensual situations.”

“Smart.They probably wouldn’t stay in business for long otherwise.”

“And the owner is big on boundaries, so don’t worry if you get a lecture.She’s not singling you out in any way,” Jarred said and easily climbed in front of her.Wave wrapped her arms around him and enjoyed the heat he exuded.She’d never be cold with him around.

The place was on the other side of town, and from the front, it looked nothing like a sex shop.Wave let her eyes scan over the beautiful display of books and the tiny café in the corner.The dark wood contrasted nicely with the blue tablecloths and pink flowers on the counter.

The only thing that hinted that this was not a regular bookshop was the theme.None of the men on the covers had their shirts on, and neither did the women.There was a section on massage, another one on bondage, and a third on romance.Hence the shirtless men.

A bell dinged when they stepped inside, and Wave inhaled the scent of books and coffee lingering in the air.Cozy—that was the word that she would use to describe the place.Comforting scents, soft lights, and a warm atmosphere enveloped her, making her immediately relax.

“Okay, I can see why you chose to work at the library,” Jarred murmured.“Don’t get too turned on by these books or I might get jealous.”

“Hush, pet,” Wave murmured distractedly and headed to another display that boasted all kinds of interesting things from roleplay to foot fetish.Not that she had a foot fetish, but the roleplay…

“How can I help you?”a friendly voice asked from behind the counter.“Looking for something specific?”

“I thought I was, but I think I might have to rethink all my options.”Wave laughed and picked up a book.She flashed it to Jarred, who, honest to god, blushed.“Should I get this one, pet?”

“Precious, you are killing me, and we are not even in the actual fun part of the shop.”
