CHAPTER 26
Sutton
I felt buzzed, and it had nothing to do with the glass of wine I’d had at dinner.
Jagger led me to his bedroom by the hand. Once we were inside, he took a seat on the edge of the mattress and pulled me to stand between his open legs. “Undress for me.”
My heart thumped. I didn’t understand exactly why, but his authoritative tone sent a rush of goosebumps over my arms. I reached for my heels first, but he stopped me with a crooked grin. “Those stay on.”
I nodded and swallowed, nerves really beginning to set in. The material of my silk two-piece outfit felt heavier than it was as I reached behind me and unzipped the skirt. But when I let it slip to the floor and looked up and saw Jagger’s eyes filled with blazing heat, my confidence got a boost. He wanted me as much as I wanted him, and it didn’t matter that I wasn’t experienced in the art of a sultry striptease. Seeing his desire made me stand taller, be a little more daring and flirty as I peeled pieces of my clothing off one by one.
Once I was fully naked, Jagger leaned over and pressed a kiss to my stomach. His lips vibrated against my skin. “Such a good girl. I can’t wait to reward you.”
He slid open the nightstand and pulled out a set of leather handcuffs. Holding them up to me, he spoke softly, “I left the tag on so you can see they’re brand new. I bought them for us.”
I smiled. “Thank you.”
Jagger set them aside and stood. He wrapped one of his big hands around my throat and used it to pull me in for a kiss. It was hard to believe I’d never been able to orgasm with a man before when I was on edge already from just a simple touch. His thumb stroked over my pulse line, and when he squeezed, relief washed over me. Iwantedhimto take control. I trusted him to.
Jagger broke the kiss by tugging the flesh of my lower lip between his teeth as he pulled away. “You test every last ounce of my self-control, sweetheart.”
“I gave up on trying to control anything when I’m around you.”
He brushed his knuckles along my cheek. “Good. I don’t want you to hold back anything when you’re with me.” Jagger scooped me into his arms, setting me down gently in the middle of the bed before climbing on and straddling my hips, the handcuffs in his hands.
“They’re padded inside, but you don’t want to pull against them too hard, or you’ll bruise and get chafed.”
“Okay.”
He lifted my arm, kissed the inside of my wrist, and slipped on the first cuff. The clicking sound of it tightening sent a lightning bolt through my body. He attached the other end to the headboard and moved to the next cuff. When he was done, my arms were spread in a wide V over my head.
“Pull,” Jagger said. “Feel the restraints.”
I did, and it surprised me how much I liked it—liked the restriction of movement and the pinch of pain from the cuff digging into me.
Jagger watched me and smiled. “We’ll leave your legs free.This time.”
He climbed off the bed, and I assumed he was going to undress, but instead he headed for the door.
“Wait,” I called. “Where are you going?”
“Shut your eyes and think about all the things I can do to you, and you won’t be able to stop me.”
Oh God. With my history, that statement should’ve scared the crap out of me, but again, I liked it. A lot.My breaths quickened, and I imagined giving up control, letting Jagger do whatever he wanted to my body—his cock sliding into my mouth, his mouth on me… I pulled against the tight cuffs, imagining how I would try to touch him as he thrust deep into me, but wouldn’t be able to.
I was still lost in my vivid imagination when footsteps came back into the room. My eyes opened to find Jagger setting what looked like an ice bucket on the nightstand. He walked to the bottom of the bed and unbuttoned the cuffs of his dress shirt as he spoke.
“You can watch me undress. But when I’m done, you’re going to close your eyes and not open them until I tell you that you can. Understood?”
I nodded.
“What happens if you open them before I say it’s time, Sutton?”
“You’ll punish me.” Just saying the words made me aroused.
“And what will your punishment be?”
“I won’t be able to come?”
