“The truth? Not just pretty words?” I foundmyself nodding before he’d even finished.
“Yes.” If I was going to trust him, Iwanted everything laid out between us. I didn’t want so honest that he turnedinto my mother, but there had to be something reasonable in-between.
There was a ghost of a smile on his lips,like I’d pleased him, but he seemed almost worried. If I had to guess, I’d sayhe was unsure of my reaction. It should have concerned me, but it seemed sweet.I liked that he wanted this to work.
He wantedusto work.
When he finally spoke, he started flickingthe barbells like he found them relaxing. “I like that you don’t know what youwant. I like that you’re curious, but you’re not coming into this with all theanswers.”
I was trying to be good and listen to theearnest yet sexy words, but he pinched my nipples, making me moan.
The way he was ignoring my reactions as hecontinued to speak was a turn-on for reasons I couldn’t define. “I love that Iwould be the first Dom to torment you and pleasure you, and I love that I wouldbe the first man to show you so many wonderful and wicked things.”
Porter went back to running his hands overmy chest, letting me breathe again. “It’s a little barbaric, I know, but Ican’t seem to help myself.”
As long as the sexy caveman wore suits, notfur or leather, I didn’t think I’d mind.
“I don’t want you to stop it.” Swallowingback another moan as he resumed playing with my nipples, I focused on words,not how good his touch felt. “I think I might like a bit of…I mean…”
Shit. Nothing was coming out right.
“I like that.” Simple. To the point.
If we both found my lack of experienceinteresting, that was perfectly fine.
I was trying to sound reasonable, butPorter decided to go in a different direction. His fingers trailed down mysides, making me shiver as he smiled. “So what you’re saying is that you likemy caveman fantasies?”
He never broke the no touching below thebelt rule, but the closer he got the more I realized he’d been right. I wasgoing to end up begging.
Porter stepped closer, and I knew that takingone good breath would be all I needed to do to press myself completely againsthim. Just the faintest shift and I’d be able to rub my dick against his leg.
I managed to behave, but the wicked look inhis eyes said he knew what I was thinking. “If you ever start to worry aboutnot being experienced enough, no matter who you end up with, I want you to rememberthis moment and how erotic I found it…how erotic I found you.”
His predatory smile sent a shiver throughme. “Temptingly erotic.”
Just when I thought he would finally pressagainst me, taking the decision out of my hands, he stepped back. “Almost tootempting.”
He shook his head and something about theteasing disappointment had me wanting to beg again. “I might have to punish youif you keep tempting me.”
Were punishments supposed to be a turn-on?
“I don’t know if I’m supposed to promise tobehave or not. I just…”
I had no idea how to finish my thought, butPorter’s smile said he didn’t mind. “Such a naughty boy.”
Was that supposed to be a good thing ornot?
“Let’s go before you have to decide whatyou think of participating in public scenes.” With that vaguely frightening andsurprisingly erotic statement, he took my hand again and started leading medeeper into the dimly lit room.
It was almost startling to realize how manypeople had probably been watching us, but when he’d been touching me, it’d beenlike we were the only people in the room. Like one of those dirty fuckingromance novels Laura was always trying to get me to read.
I found some of my wandering brain cells asPorter led me across the room, but they vanished again when we came to a smallstage where a scene was underway. The way the spotlights were positionedhighlighted the stage and made the darkness around it even more pronounced.
Porter inched us closer between the couplesand groups watching, and the way he smiled at them gave the impression he knewthem. But I was only half aware of everything else because of what was going onin front of us.
Words failed me.
Porter seemed to understand that because hestepped behind me and wrapped his arms around me and let me take it all in. Thefirst thing that came into focus were the two men in the middle of the stage.
