Chapter 5: Slow

The second night, I took my time.

He had come back at dusk with a bag of groceries and an apology he didn't get to finish.

I had taken the bag out of his hands, put it on the counter, and pulled him up the stairs by his belt.

Now the lamp by the bed was on low, and the quilt was shoved to the floor.

I lay on my back with my hair spread over the pillow, and Dray knelt between my knees, bare to the waist.

"Slow," I said. "I want it slow."

"How slow?"

"Slower than you think you can stand."

His mouth twitched.

I took his wrists and pressed them down into the mattress on either side of my head.

"And you keep your hands here."

"Until when?"

"Until I say."

He looked at his own hands, pinned under mine, and swallowed.

"Okay," he whispered.

I rose up and kissed him.

I kissed him for a long time, with no hurry in it, just the wet slow slide of his mouth against mine.

He kissed like he was starving and didn't want to finish the meal.

I opened my mouth under his and heard him make a small raw sound.

"Tell me what it's like," I said against his lips.

"It's like a hand closing around my heart. But gentle."

"Mm."

"And it moves down. Every time your tongue touches mine, it moves down."

"Down where?"

"To my cock. To my knees. To the soles of my feet."

I bit his lower lip, and his hips jerked against mine.

I could feel him hard against my thigh, and I wasn't in a hurry to do anything about it.

I let go of his wrists with one hand and ran my palm down his chest.

His whole body followed it.

I ran my nails lightly over his ribs, and he shuddered and his hands curled into the sheets, but they didn't leave the bed.

"Good," I said. "That's good, Dray."

He closed his eyes at the word.

"Say it again."

"You're so good."

A tremor went through him from head to hips.

"Fuck," he breathed. "When you say that, it comes back at me twice."

"Then I'll say it a lot."

I slid my hand between us and took him in my fist.

I stroked him slowly, thumb circling the slick head, and he made a rough sound in his throat.

"Look at me," I said.

He opened his eyes.

"I'm going to put you inside me now. And I want you to go in slow, and stay slow, and not stop looking at me."

"Yes."

"Say yes."

"Yes."

I smiled up at him.

I guided him to my entrance and wrapped my legs around his hips.

He pushed in an inch.

We both stopped.

Heat bloomed low in my belly, and my breath left me in a rush.

He pushed in another inch.

"Oh," I said. "Oh, that's."

"Keep going."

He kept going.

He sank into me by degrees, long and deep and slow, until his hips pressed against mine and he was seated all the way.

I felt every inch of it.
