Slowly, Mel parted Vanessa’s lips with her tongue and ran it up and down her folds. Vanessa’s hands fell down to the back of Mel’s head, holding her in place. Mel licked and stroked and flicked away, drunk on Vanessa’s taste. Vanessa rocked her hips against Mel’s mouth, taking charge of her own pleasure. Muted cries sprung from her lips.
“Melanie,” Vanessa said between breaths. “I want you inside me.”
“Yes, my Queen.” As soon as the words left Mel’s lips, Vanessa’s body shivered and her breathing grew heavy. Mel had always been aware of the power Vanessa’s words had over her. But until now, she hadn’t known that her own words could have the same effect on Vanessa.
Mel slipped a finger inside her, then another. Vanessa gasped, her walls clamping around Mel’s fingers. Slowly, Vanessa yielded, and Mel began to dart her fingers in and out. She crawled back up the bed and pressed her body against Vanessa’s. Mel wanted to be close to her through this, to dissolve into Vanessa so deeply that she felt everything Vanessa was feeling.
Vanessa let out a low purr as Mel slid her thumb up to Vanessa’s swollen nub. Her hands grasped for Mel’s body, pulling her in tighter. Mel could feel how close Vanessa was. Finally, Vanessa’s body began to quake. Her walls pulsed around Mel’s fingers, her wild howl echoing through the room.
Vanessa’s scream only emboldened Mel. She thrust away, coaxing out every little part of Vanessa’s orgasm. But Mel didn’t stop. Another orgasm quickly followed. And another, until finally, Vanessa shattered in Mel’s arms.
“Melanie…” Vanessa murmured, breathless.
Mel snuggled into the side of Vanessa’s body and threw her arm across Vanessa’s chest. Still blindfolded, Mel could feel Vanessa’s body slacken and her breathing slow down. Vanessa showed no sign of stirring from her post-orgasm daze.
Mel smiled to herself. This was exactly what she wanted. To give Vanessa everything that Vanessa had given her. To make Vanessa lose herself in Mel and surrender to the pleasure that Mel was giving her. And she had succeeded. More than once.
When Vanessa finally recovered, she pulled off Mel’s blindfold. “You served your queen well,” Vanessa said. “You’ve earned yourself a reward.” Her lips curved up into a slight smile.
Mel’s heart sped up. She knew what that smile meant. Vanessa had relinquished control to Mel, if only for a moment.
Now it was time for her to take it back.
Ten minutes later, Mel was on all fours on the edge of the bed. Her body was positioned so that her ass was thrust up in the air, and her feet hung off the side of the mattress. Her ankles were bound to the bed frame, spreading her legs shoulder-width apart. Her wrists were bound together by a long rope attached to the other side of the bed.
Vanessa double checked her knots, then knelt on the bed in front of Mel. “Now that you’re mine again, mind, body, and heart, I’m going to remind you what it means to belong to me.” She took Mel’s chin in her hands and tipped Mel’s face up toward hers. “I’m going to unravel you bit by bit until all that’s left is pure unbridled desire, and you’re unable to do anything except lose yourself in a haze of ecstasy.”
Mel’s breath quickened. Vanessa’s words alone were enough to make her ache.
Vanessa disappeared somewhere behind her. The position Mel was in left her unable to see most of the room, so she closed her eyes and listened to Vanessa’s soft footsteps. Mel had no idea what Vanessa was going to do with her. But instead of anxious anticipation, Mel felt completely calm. Vanessa knew her deeply. Sometimes it felt like Vanessa knew Mel better than Mel knew herself. And she trusted Vanessa unconditionally.
Vanessa returned to the bed and stood behind Mel. Mel twisted around to look at her. Vanessa held one of her crimson-handled whips in her hand. It was a short flogger with countless leather tails.
“I’m going to introduce you to my favorite toy. It’s this flogger here. It has so many uses.” Vanessa draped the flogger over Mel’s back. “It can be used to tease.”
The soft tails of the flogger brushed along Mel’s back and down the backs of her thighs. She shuddered with delight.
“With a bit of force, it makes a lovely, solid thud.”
Mel felt a firm swat on her bare ass. The impact made her jump.
“Turn it on its side, and it stings just as much as a riding crop.” Vanessa whipped Mel again.
Mel hissed. It was like a hundred tiny needles had pierced her skin.
“And once you get into a rhythm, it can be almost hypnotic.” Vanessa brought the flogger down on Mel’s thrust out ass over and over, one cheek then the other, firmly but not hard enough to really hurt.
“Mmmm…” Mel closed her eyes as Vanessa drew stripes across her skin with the whip. She embraced the sensations, pushing herself out to meet the flogger, losing all sense of time. The next thing she knew, Vanessa was massaging her tender, hot cheeks.
“That was just the warm-up,” Vanessa said. “Now it’s time for the real thing.”
Mel shifted in her bonds, anticipation brewing inside of her. The ropes barely allowed her to move an inch.
“I’m going to flog you ten times. Harder this time. I want you to count them out loud for me.”
“Yes, Vanessa,” Mel replied.
Vanessa took a few steps back. Mel tensed, waiting for the inevitable. Silence hung in the air. But the flogger didn’t fall. After
