Cooper stroked his cock as he loomed over his dazed wife. The entire evening had been a shock, but it seemed it was a good one. One that had loosed his inner self, allowing his darker desires to roam free. Turning from the bed, he went to the cabinet on the far wall and opened it. Inside, he found all that he could possibly need for the next part of his wife’s introduction to his preferences.

He pulled out a set of leather cuffs and brought them over to the bed. “We’ll start slow and explore more next time. For now, I want to restrain you. Tie you to my bed and fuck you until you scream my name in pure ecstasy.”

She moaned as she looked up at him. “Please, Cooper. I need you inside me.”

Her words nearly broke him in the moment. He wanted to toss the cuffs aside, spread her thighs, and pound into her until he came. But what he wanted even more was to give her an experience similar to what she’d seen earlier. To let her taste what it would mean to be with him like this. To truly be his. “You’ll have what you need, when I’m ready to give it.”

She whimpered.

Ignoring her obvious need, he wrapped the first cuff around her wrist. Next, he wrapped the second cuff, and then he joined them and linked them to a loop on the bed’s headboard. As though the restriction of her movement woke her from her post-climax haze, Emily’s eyes widened as she tugged against the restraints. “Cooper?”

The question in her voice excited him, made him want to drive into her. But instead, he brought her face around to meet his, their gazes locked. “Emily, this is where the trust truly begins to grow. You are utterly at my mercy. I can choose to pleasure you, or leave you here. Do you know which I have planned?”

Dark worry flashed through her eyes. “Pleasure?”

The doubt in her voice and on her face stabbed him in his heart, but he had known it would be there. She had told him as much. “Today you say that with a question in your voice. With worry in your beautiful hazel eyes. One day, I won’t even need to ask the question.”

She sighed softly and nodded. “I want that. I want to trust you without question.”

He kept her gaze snared by his. “Then, until then, we will continue to work at it, my sweet hellion.”

He crawled on the bed and spread her legs before he knelt between them. Balanced on hands and knees, he leaned down and captured one nipple in his hungry mouth. She arched up into him as he sucked hard on her nipple, and then she cried out. “Ahh!”

Releasing the tip, he repeated the rough play on her other nipple. This time, she moaned low and needy as he sucked. The peak hardened and swelled as he pulled on it. Then he let it go and flicked it with his tongue, once, twice, three times.

Need for her heat and the tight clasp of her channel pushed him lower down her body. He eased over her stomach, licking and tasting her heated flesh as he shifted back toward her hot center.

“Please. Fuck me,” she begged.

His cock pulsed, desperately wanting to answer her plea. But he refused to give in just yet. He had more to explore with her. Wedging his shoulders between her thighs, he spread her open and tucked a bolster beneath her ass, lifting her quim up to the perfect height for him to feast on. And so he did. He plunged his tongue deep into her channel, and then pulled out to draw it up over her clit. There, he swirled around the sensitive nub until her hips pumped up to meet each pass. Wanting more. He pushed two fingers inside her, working them in and out, and covering them in her juices. When they were good and wet, he pulled out and drew them down to her rear entrance. He rubbed the tight pucker with his fingers and pressed against the furl. She gasped and thrashed above him, but with his other arm braced over her pelvis, she had little room to maneuver.

“Hold still, sweetheart. Open for me. Let me inside you,” he crooned as he reduced down to a single finger and pushed past the tight ring of muscle. Once his digit was lodged in her rear passage, he leaned up and swiped his tongue over her clit.

She jostled and moaned. “Oh, God.”

He slid the finger out and pushed back in. And then he added a second one as he continued to lick her pussy. Once she settled into the sensation and seemed to be enjoying it, he released his forearm from her hips and brought his thumb down to work her clit as he tongued her soaking hole.

She bucked and cried out. “Cooper, please! I-I-I need…” And the rest of her plea was lost as she came hard on his tongue, again. This time, he worked her clit with his thumb as he pumped his fingers in and out of her arse. All the while, he fucked her with his tongue, reveling in her sweetness as she exploded for him. Her climax was so intense, his own hips bucked in sympathy, nearly driving him over the edge as he carried her through her peak and brought her carefully back down.

After withdrawing his fingers from the hot clasp of her bottom, he rose up and drove his shaft into her still-spasming pussy until he bottomed out in her hot core. The grip of her residual orgasm paired with the intense heat of her pussy had him dancing on the edge within a few strokes. Knowing he was close, he pumped into her hard and fast, driving deep with each thrust until his balls drew up tight, and pure unadulterated pleasure exploded from his sac throughout his body. His toes curled, and he shot his load deep inside her until he collapsed on top of her, drained and replete.

After lying still a moment, he pressed up and pulled his softening cock from her searing core. And then he released her wrists, bringing them down to chafe them and rub them to ensure she was well. As she lay there, still in a daze, he realized she must have come again when he plunged into her, and something solid and sure settled in his chest. He’d known he loved her, but he’d never expected to reveal his whole self to her, and this night of sex and sharing was almost more than he could handle. But he refused to scare her by announcing his love for her when he knew she still harbored doubts.

Instead, he carefully scooped her up and tucked her under the covers of the bed and snuggled against her. The swirl of emotions within overwhelmed him as he lay there in the dark and repressed the words he wanted so desperately to say. Would she ever trust him enough to believe him when he said he loved her?
