“Quite possibly.” If he’d figured outLandon had some Dom tendencies or looked open-minded, he might have tried totest out the waters if he was confident enough.
Nodding absentmindedly, Landon glanced outthe door and across the hall. When he looked back at me, I could almost see thequestion in his mind. “The rooms mirror each other. So yes, the other bathroomhas the window in so people can watch.”
That seemed to be the most shocking thinghe’d heard since he’d shown up at the club.
Mouth dropping open, he looked back andforth and kept shaking his head. “No, this should not have an audience.”
Interesting.
Stepping closer, I moved behind him andwrapped my arms around his chest. Stroking over his nipples, I nuzzled againsthis head. When he leaned into me and took a deep breath, I nodded. “I agree.Anything we decided to explore in this kind of environment would be keptprivate and wouldn’t have an audience.”
He nodded and relaxed for a few secondsbefore stiffening. “Wait. I didn’t mean…I mean…you said…”
Landon would have kept going, so I huggedhim tight and he paused. “First of all, we don’t have to try anything you don’tfind at the very least interesting. And just because I haven’t done somethingbefore doesn’t mean I’m against it. It just means I’ve never had a partner whowas interested in it enough for me to focus on it.”
Rubbing slow circles over his chest, Icontinued. “I haven’t dated much for the past few years. I was working crazyhours, and it’s been a long time since I’ve had anyone in my life.”
When he nodded and I felt his heart ratestart to slow, I shifted the focus of our discussion a bit. “But that beingsaid, if this was something I wanted to explore with you, how would you feel?”
Landon shrugged and seemed to struggle withwhat to say. He finally pointed to the shower. “You like watching me. I can seeyou wanting to watch me shower.”
It was a roundabout way to answer, but I’dtake it. “I’d like that. I can also picture cleaning you out or even exploringsomething like watersports if you were curious, or if you just wanted to feelcompletely owned by your Dom.”
That got his wheels turning, but I didn’tfocus on it for long. “There are lots of different ways we could explore thingslike that, but Landon?”
I waited until he turned his head andlooked into my eyes. “Nothing we would do in here would make me think less ofyou. I would be very proud of you for trying something new and I know yoursubmission would be beautiful.”
He swallowed and watched me for a fewseconds before nodding. “Okay.”
Shaking my head, I stroked his cheek. “Tryagain.”
He let out a dry chuckle but leaned into mytouch and sighed. “Yes, Sir.”
He took another moment, cuddling into me,but the words finally came out. “I know that nothing we explore would make youthink less of me, and if you didn’t want to do something I was curious about,there’s nothing wrong with that. We’d talk about a…a topic and if we didn’twant to do it, that’s fine.”
“Good boy.” I stroked his cheek again andgave him another hug. “That’s right, and if you didn’t want to do something Iwanted to, that’s fine too because there will be a thousand other things we’llfind that we do like together.”
Landon nodded, but he turned in my arms sohe was facing me. Looking into my eyes, he looked earnest but sweetly nervous.“And if I want something, I just have to ask and we’ll talk about it?”
“Yes, baby.” I knew we didn’t know eachother well enough for me to be feeling the emotions that were running throughme, but I wasn’t going to question it yet.
His gaze dropped lower on my face and helicked his lips. “May I have a kiss, Sir?”
Head over fucking heels.
I was a goner.
Chapter 5
Landon
He didn’t ask me if I was sure or even looklike he thought my request was out of bounds. As he tilted my face up so I waslooking into his eyes, he smiled and his thumb stroked over my lower lip.
When I flicked my tongue out and licked histhumb, he chuckled. “Yes, baby. I would love to give you a kiss.”
I wasn’t sure what we were doing, but as hepulled me closer and took my lips in a slow, tender kiss, it was like nothingI’d ever felt before. I’d always thought a kiss was a kiss, but his lips werefirm and there was something wonderfully commanding in his touch.
He was confident in a way I’d never feltwith a first kiss.
