Chapter 34

Brad grabs her hand and they walk down the street together, her skirt swaying in the wind. Brad puts his arm around her waist, squeezing Jane closer to him. She feels safe in his arms, at home and completely at ease.

They walk past a few stores and stop in at one—a Victorian Gift Shop. The place smells of potpourri, and the music is very light with chimes in the background.

“I’ll get you whatever you want in here. Don’t be shy,” Brad whispers in her ear.

“Really?” she says, unsure if she should accept. Her mind returns to their earlier discussion about money and his habit of buying friendship.

She picks up a little sachet with lavender in it for her lingerie drawer.

“This is lovely. I would like you to buy me this,” she says, looking at Brad with tender eyes.

“Well, that would be fine, but I think you deserve more than that. Let’s go over to the clothing section. There must be something there for you,” he says.

Jane walks over and notices some white pieces of lingerie, like the ones from Victorian times where they tie up in the front and push up the boobs.

“They are all handmade from England, my dear,” says the sales clerk, keen on Brad’s visit to the store. “This one is extra-special because the ribbon is made of silk from Japan.”

Jane’s eyes widen at how luxurious these pieces look. She reaches out to touch the pink ribbon and the ribbing on the garment.

“It’s gorgeous,” says Jane, enchanted by the exquisite beauty of it.

“Just like you, my dear,” whispers Brad, wrapping his arms around her from behind.

Jane feels tingles throughout her body, and her shoulders raise with excitement. He pulls her hair back and kisses her on the neck, imagining her in the corset.

“You would look so sexy in that,” he says, putting his hand on her ass and stroking it.

Jane feels a bit embarrassed because the clerk is there. She giggles as she pushes his hand away.

“Can I try this on, please?” she asks the sales clerk in a professional tone.

“Yes, of course,” the woman says, fully expecting her to ask.

She goes into the decadent dressing room and starts changing.

“Would you like me to help you do up the back?” asks Brad through the curtain.

Jane doesn't think guys are allowed back there.

“Um… okay, sure, that would be great,” she says a bit nervously.

He walks in and is stunned at how she looks. He sees her smooth and gentle back. He reaches for the corset and ties up each level. He gets to the mid-back and starts kissing her there, going down to the base of the spine to the top of her ass. The top of the red thong is there.

He groans as he grabs it with his teeth.

“You’re such a good girl, Jane. You know exactly what I want,” he says.

Jane looks into the mirror and sees herself with rosy cheeks. Her cleavage spills out of the garment and she can’t believe how much she looks like one of those seductive women from the Victorian age, looking beautiful on the outside and naughty on the inside.

She feels herself getting juicier and juicier with Brad’s touches and kisses. He stands up, grabs her tits from behind, and looks at her in the mirror.

“I can smell you. I know you want me, Jane,” Brad says, his cock getting ever harder as it rubs against her ass. “What I wouldn’t do to have you right here and now.”

Jane, still looking at him in the mirror, looks into his eyes with a haze of pleasure. She starts breathing heavier, her chest lifting up higher and higher.

“I want you, too, Brad, I really do,” she says, resisting the temptation to turn around and fuck him right then and there.

“I really want the first time to be more special than this,” she says. “Even though this is the most magical place I’ve ever been in.”

Brad turns her around and kisses her deeply, pushing her up against the mirror. He rubs his hands up and down her chest. He says to her, “I respect you so much, you know that, right?”

She nods.

“I really want you to get this piece for our first night,” he says. “You look so stunning in it.”

He releases her and leaves the change room.

Jane looks at her front and her back, calming herself down from feeling so turned on.

“My God, Jane Bryden, you are a whole new woman,” she says, admiring how she looks.

She comes out of the dressing room with the corset in hand.

Brad passes it over to the sales clerk. “We’ll take two of these, please. One in black, the other in white,” he says.

“Would you like both with the pink ribbon?” she asks.

Brad looks at Jane for her preference.

“Yes, that would be lovely,” she says demurely, still shy that the sales clerk knows she’s buying something so sexy.

“Wonderful choice, my dear,” she says.

“Pink for those gorgeous, rosy cheeks,” Brad says, kissing her lightly.

They leave the store and go back to the hotel. Jane is feeling a bit tired out from the day so far and wants to go to her room for a while.

“I have business plans for dinner,” says Brad. “We will have to see each other tomorrow afternoon. You’ll have a note waiting for you,” he says, kissing her on the lips. “Sweet dreams, darling.”

“Don’t work too hard, my dear,” she says, expressing her tender feelings for the first time.

Brad is touched at the endearment and feels the warmth of Jane’s gentle love in his heart.
