THURSDAY

CHAPTER 29

(2:10AM): Tom

“You’ve turned me into a screamer,” Kate rasped.

Our bare bodies were entwined, supported by several pillows, half sitting up in a queen-size bed. All the candles had burnt out except for one, which flickered on the redwood bureau at the far side of the room. The cotton window curtains were pulled to one side, exposing the west side of the room to the dark night. A few stars hovered over the moon-swept ocean. Surf pounded the granite cliff.

My body quivered with excitement. I was covered with a thin sheen of sweat. I should be exhausted, I thought. But I’m too turned on. “I want to please you,” I said hoarsely. “When you screamed, I thought I was doing my job.” I kissed her cheek.

“Oh my god, you are pleasing me.” Kate purred. “it’s just that I wasn’t prepared for a climax like that.” She pressed closer. “I’m not sure what I expected when we got together but not this. Not waves of orgasms.” She sighed. “I thought you would be a more ‘conventional’ lover.”

“What does that mean?”

“You’re more attentive than I expected, more considerate. You talk to me. And you want to excite every part of my body. From the hair on my head to the soles of my feet, you’ve turned me into one big erogenous zone.”

“As your lover, it’s my job to please you.”

“My wonderful lover.” Kate kissed me.

I tightened both arms around her.

“I love the way you hold me,” Kate said. “I crave physical contact with you. I’m insatiable.” She tucked her head under my chin and curled on my chest.

“Me, too.” My heart ached. “I hadn’t realized how much I missed skin contact until I met you…”

“And I couldn’t keep my hands off of you.”

I kissed her hair. “I love it.”

Kate inched higher until her mouth was next to my ear. “As I open to you, as I let myself be vulnerable,” she whispered. “I realize how needy I am.”

I pulled her closer. “You give me many gifts. When you open to me, I open to you.” I turned my head and kissed her.

Kate pushed her tongue deep inside mine.

I grew aroused again.

“Tom, you are way more experienced than I am.”

“Uh huh.”

Kate whispered in my ear. “I have had a more sheltered sex life than you might have imagined. In high school and college, I was a cop’s daughter, and my boyfriends were very careful with me.” Her voice was barely audible. “Earle thought I was a prude because I wouldn’t let him go down on me.”

“Fuck Earle,” I growled. “Earle was an idiot. You are a remarkable woman who requires special handling.”

She snuggled closer. “Is that your secret skill? Special handling?”

“With you.” I kissed her. “I handle you with care.”

She ran her tongue around my lips and mouth. “You talk to me and reassure me when I am nervous.”

My heart hammered. “I was never aware that you were nervous. I focused on appreciating every inch of your luscious body and listening to your feedback.”

“My sighs and moans.”

“Yes. I didn’t have an agenda, but when I was kissing your stomach, you spread your legs, so I went lower.”

“I wasn’t thinking, I just did it.”

“And you got very excited.”

Kate panted and bit my lower lip. “You opened me.”

“You gave me a special gift.”

“And I screamed like I never have before.” She bit my ear lobe. “I’m aroused again.”

My erection throbbed. “So am I.”

Kate chuckled and pushed against my erection. “Does it bother you that I am so loud?”

“No.” I turned into her hips. “It turns me on. However, it might bother Tammy who rented the cottage two doors down.”

“I don’t give a flying fuck if I bother Tammy.”

“It might bother the Benedictine monks who live in the monastery above Lucia.”

“Their choice to be celibate,” Kate laughed. “They don’t know what they were missing.” She ran the fingers of her left hand lightly down my chest and circled my belly button.

I inserted my tongue in her ear. “What turns you on, turns me on.” I slid my left hand slowly down her stomach and reached her pubic hair.

Kate arched her back and then placed her hand on mine. She kissed me. “You know, Tom, you are so competent that it’s tempting to let you take care of everything.” She moved up so she was leaning on my chest looking into my eyes. “After you were finished ‘appreciating’ me, I lay there blissed out and thought, ‘I’m going to stay here and have Tom make love to me forever.” She furrowed her brow. “Then I thought, ‘When does Tom go off duty? When does he get ‘appreciated’?” She sat up. “So now you’re going to take your turn. Just lay back and let me provide the special handling.”

I started to tell Kate she didn’t need to do anything for me, but she put her hand over my mouth. “Do what I tell you, Tom, or you will be punished.” Kate chuckled. “Now lie flat and spread your legs.”

Kate sat up. She reached into her purse, picked out a white headband, and slipped it over her head, pulling her hair back.

Kate kissed me for a long minute and then moved her lips everywhere on my head. She placed her left hand on my heart.

Her kisses moved to my neck. Kate lingered on the fleshy area of my clavicle and sucked hard. “While I’m at it, I’m putting my mark on you, so any woman, who sees you naked in the showers and admires your cute butt, will know you’re taken.”

My heart beat faster. I closed my eyes.

“Open your eyes, Tom. I want you fully awake for this.” Kate’s kisses moved to my chest. and she sucked on my right nipple. I moaned. “Good,” Kate said. “Keep your eyes open and moan.” She chuckled. “My new life objective is to make you moan every day.” Her hand moved to my pubic hair. She sucked on my left nipple. “Your nipples have not been fully appreciated.”

I moaned again and my penis quivered. Kate kissed my stomach and ran her tongue around my belly button. She paused to give me another hickey. “This is so much fun.” She caressed my glans with her hair, as she gripped the base of my penis with her thumb and forefinger.

I moaned and arched my back.

“Just a little while longer, Tom.” Kate moved her lips to the inside of my calves and gave me another love bite. She let her tongue trail all the way down my leg and then sucked two of my toes. “Umm.”

Kate moved back up my legs, sliding her tongue over my skin, and then hovered over my erection.

We were both panting.

“Now I need to get us ready.” Kate kissed the side of my penis as she placed several fingers inside her vagina. “I’m very wet. What do you think?” She placed her moist fingers on my lips.

I noisily sucked them.

Kate chuckled. “Now I need to get you ready for my Tantric fantasy.” She licked my glans and then slid on top of me.

I moaned as I was embraced by her wet warmth. Sparks lit the backs of my eyes. All I could feel was Kate.

Her eyes widened. “Hold on, Tom. We’re almost there.” Kate’s panting increased. “Keep your eyes open. And do exactly what I say, or you will be disciplined.” She clenched her vagina.

“Brace your arms. I’m going to lean over you.” I did what Kate said, and she was suspended over me. “Damn, I won’t be able to kiss you.” Kate shook her head, as she realized her lips would only come to my neck. “We’ll work on that later. Now pull your legs together.”

I did what she said. Kate moved her feet outside my legs until she was suspended over me.

“Good. We’re almost there. Now take a deep breath.”

We both inhaled and Kate lowered her body over mine until I could feel her erect nipples against my chest and her vagina enveloping my penis. I struggle to maintain control. We both moaned.

“Now exhale.” Kate pushed up off me. “Oh god. I’m so close.” Her eyes were intense. “Now inhale.”

Again, Kate lowered her body over mine. I was so excited that I imagined my heart breaking through my chest.

“Now exhale.” Kate pushed up off me. Her voice was a throaty whisper. “Almost there.” Her body trembled. I focused on holding on. “Now inhale.”

This time, when Kate lowered her body over mine, we both shook. “Now exhale.”

As Kate pushed off, I could see her eyes were dilated and her pupils rolled up until the eyes surface was white. Her body convulsed. Kate collapsed on me and screamed.

I let go and joined her shouts.
