Bound to You

Bound to You Part 16

Her lips slid down Enjoy's neck again. She tasted the pulse there, her tongue tracing the jump of it, her mouth closing lightly around a patch of skin in a soft suck that left warmth blooming under her lips. June watched as the hickey took shape and grinned, pleased at the idea of marking her puppy for everyone to see.

"Mine," she murmured, almost to herself. "I like being obvious."

June let her free hand roam, one long, warm stroke from Enjoy's shoulder down her arm to her wrist, then back up along her side, curving over her ribcage and waist.

Her touch was a slow map.

"You like when I tell you what I'm going to do," June whispered against her collarbone. "So you can feel it building before it even happens."

She kissed down her chest, tasting the smooth skin there, pausing to let her tongue swirl lazily over one nipple, then the other, never rough, never hurried. Each attention drew small, helpless sounds from Enjoy's mouth, exactly the kind that made June's eyes darken.

"There," June said quietly. "You always make that sound when I take my time here. You like that I don't rush this."

Her lips dropped lower, down her stomach. She kissed just above the navel, tongue pressing lightly to taste the salt of her skin.

Enjoy's stomach clenched.

June smiled.

She moved to her hip and pressed her nose briefly to the curve there, inhaling. The scent rising from her lower body was stronger now, deeper, the room itself starting to smell like want and skin and shared arousal.

Her mouth returned to the inside of Enjoy's thigh. She kissed once. Then again. Then again, higher each time, her tongue leaving slow, wet trails that cooled for a second before the next warm touch.

Enjoy's thighs trembled.

June placed her palm on the outer thigh, warm and steady, grounding her.

"You are shaking already," she murmured. "And I have barely started. Do you realize how responsive you are for me?"

Her breath drifted higher, close to where Enjoy burned.

"I can smell how much you want this.

Enjoy made a choked sound.

"Color," June whispered.

"Green."

June's answering hum was low and pleased.

"Good girl. Keep talking to me like that. I will take you as far as you want to go."

She shifted, then reached toward the nightstand without looking. Wood slid, something small lifted. Enjoy heard the faint sound before she felt June's breath at her ear.

"This time," June said quietly, "I need a little help."

Enjoy frowned faintly, still dazed. "Help with what?"

June gave a small exhale that sounded more like honesty than humor.

"With my control," she said simply. "You do something to me when you look at me, and I don't want to rush you just because you're pretty when you're wrecked."

When Enjoy turned her head slightly, she could just make out the shape of black silk in June's hand.

June held up the folded sleep mask where Enjoy could see it.

"If I watch your face too closely for this," June said, voice low and even, "I will forget to be careful. And you deserve careful."

Enjoy's breath caught.
