DISCLAIMER: THE TWILIGHT SAGA IS OWNED BY S.M. – the twisted plot is mine!
Last time we ended Chapter 35 here:
They were sitting in bed when Edward turned to Bella, "Baby, I was wondering...I finish filming this week and then Jazz and I will be home. There is a, um, a play party next Saturday night and I wanted us to go...as Dom and sub, but I need to know what you feel about that. Before you decide, I need to tell you that Jasper and Alice will be going. None of us will play there, but it would be a sort of 'coming out' party for us...so, what do you think?"
Bella was surprised because Edward Cullen didn't often sound unsure or nervous. She thought about it and how she would feel. She had found it very erotic the first time she had gone or aspects of it in any case.
She could see that Edward wanted to go and so she made up her mind.
"I would be honored to go as your submissive Edward." She said quietly and was rewarded with the biggest smile and a very passionate kiss.
CHAPTER 36
Bella smiled at the client and closed the door. Bella's first week of work was over. She smiled at Samantha who was cleaning the last of the artwork that was in their display window.
"That looks great Samantha! We have had some great comments about the display." Bella said.
Samantha was a student at San Francisco Art Institute. She had won a scholarship from Riley's Art Foundation and she had been offered a job at 22 on Princess as a way to supplement her income. She was bright and very talented and she had hit it off with Bella from the first day they had met.
If Samantha knew who she was or whom she was going out with, she hadn't made any reference to her or about her relationship with Edward at all.
Bella had told Samantha that she lived in Sausalito and she left it at that. Samantha lived with four other students just across the bridge and she worked the weekends with one of her housemates, Paul who was busy packing up consignment stock that was due to be shipped to another gallery for a show.
Samantha looked up and smiled at Bella. She knew who she was; her face was all over the fan pages of various websites, together with Edward Cullen and his family. Samantha was curious about the beautiful quiet woman who had taken over the running of 22 on Princess. Bella was friendly but distant. There had been a bit of excitement earlier on in the week when Edward Cullen's sister had arrived with a posse of Paparazzi at her heels.
She had just become engaged to Samantha's other favorite actor, Jasper Whitlock. The news broke over the Internet on Monday. Samantha had been over the moon when Alice had breezed in to the gallery. Bella had rolled her eyes at her friend and had joked with her about not being able to do anything on the quiet.
Bella had been collected on the one evening that Samantha worked by a rather frightening looking man that she called Anderson or Andy. Samantha had worked at 22 for about a year and she normally one afternoon a week and then over the weekends.
Bella went around switching off lights and making sure that the locks on the back door were secure as Samantha and Paul made their way to the front door.
"Are you sure that you will be okay this weekend, Samantha?" Bella asked.
Samantha nodded her assurance and they said goodbye as Anderson pulled up in front of the store.
Paul was looking at the intimidating man that made his was over to Bella and opened her door for her.
"Who the hell is that mofo?" Paul asked Samantha.
She shrugged, "I'm not sure, I think that he's her bodyguard or something. He came to fetch her the other night as well. Come on, it's starting to rain." She said as they got into her car.
Bella smiled at Anderson as she got into the SUV. Edward had decided that Anderson would use this car during the week instead of the town car even though Bella had protested loudly that she was quite capable of driving herself the ten minutes that it took to the gallery.
Edward was insisting that they retain his services until Edward finished filming and he had promised that they would discuss it further when he got home.
On Tuesday morning, Bella had placed a call to Riley's business manager to find out when or if the gallery would be closing over Christmas. Amanda Glenn had sent Bella a brief of her overall duties and she had seen that the gallery was to be closed from 23rd of December until the 2nd of January. Bella had been excited and she had phoned Charlie.
She had been shocked when after hearing her explanation of wanting Charlie to meet Edward and his family and how they had extended the invitation; Charlie had fumbled his acceptance eagerly. Bella had changed her tickets into Charlie's name and he was flying in on the 23rd and would be leaving on the afternoon of the 26th. Charlie was a naturally gruff person and he very seldom said more than a few words at a time. Bella smiled at his stilted words of thanks. He had hesitantly asked whether they were aware of his being 'on the wagon'. Bella had told him that no one would pressure him for not drinking and she had expressed her pride in him for still being sober.
Bella had found out where the nearest AA meeting was held in Napa, should Charlie require it. He was touched that she had done that for him.
Edward was thrilled when she had phoned him to tell him that she was not only able to take time off, but that Charlie would be joining them. Esme was already fussing, she phoned Bella almost every day with queries of what Charlie would eat and what he would like to drink. Bella smiled as Anderson pulled into the driveway.
"Thanks Andy, I am sorry that this is such a waste of your time. I will speak to Edward this weekend about getting you out of babysitting." She said with a smile.
Anderson said nothing, but as he opened her door and helped her from the car, he held onto her arm lightly, "I am glad to see that you are better, Bella. And it has not been a waste of time as you put it. I am happy to make sure that you are safe."
Bella jaw dropped even further when Anderson lowered his ever present Aviators and winked at her.
He gave a little smile as he turned to park the car in the garage and Bella walked in a daze to the front door.
Bella walked into the kitchen after dropping her bag on the bench in the entrance hall. Edward would not be home until 7 p.m. She looked up at the clock and saw that she had just over an hour. The delicious smell of dinner drew her to the stove.
Maggie had made roast chicken with vegetables and baked potatoes. She opened the fridge and saw that there was toffee pudding with custard for dessert. Bella grumbled to herself, she felt that all she did was eat all day long!
When they had arrived home from Napa, Edward had asked Maggie to meet with Bella and himself in the kitchen.
He had wasted no time in telling Maggie about Bella's weight 'problem'. Bella had argued that she was quite capable of cooking for herself while Edward was away and then ignoring his warning looks, she had argued further that she could take care of herself. A protest that had earned her five strokes with the paddle in the playroom later that night, before he removed her collar.
Maggie had gone to work, making sure that Bella ate breakfast and had packed her two snacks and lunch to take with her each day. Bella had complained that she felt as if she was back in school as she picked up her brown paper bag from the kitchen counter each morning. Maggie had just raised her eyebrows and had reminded Bella that 'Mister Edward' was just a phone call away.
Bella had rolled her eyes and stuck her tongue out as she skipped out of the house. Edward had learned his lesson and made sure that he phoned Bella at least twice a day. Alice and Rosalie had also made sure to stay in touch with her and by Friday, Bella was happy that Edward coming home would put an end to all the phone calls.
Bella had also met with Edward's personal trainer after he had received a call from Edward and had gone over her exercise regime. Bella was 'allowed' to continue her running, with palates and yoga and on alternate days she was to do some lightweight training.
Emmett had come over to deliver her bright pink 'sissy' weights as he called them.
By Wednesday evening she had snapped at Edward when he called to make sure that she was 'safe and had eaten', that if he asked her once more if she had eaten, she would refuse to talk to him until he came home. He had retorted that if she didn't take his calls, she would regret it when he did come home!
Edward had asked that she not wait for him in the playroom, but he had said that he would collar her later. Bella decided to have a shower to relax before he got home.
Once her hair was dry, Bella slipped into a pair of sheer tangerine boy shorts with matching bra, black skinny jeans and a red button down shirt. She knotted it in the waist and made her way up to the play room to make sure that everything was in order and clean.
She walked across the hallway to her studio and smiled as she looked around the room. She had left the old couch against one wall. There was a workbench that looked like a saw horse that Reggie had put up for her and a high office chair that they had found in a store room. The workbench had two work lamps and a large magnifying glass that she used for her photographs. Edward had said that he was going to renovate the little bathroom that was attached to her studio, so it was out of bounds for now.
Her art was stacked against the walls and Bella was please with what she had been working on in the past week. It was a series of 'snap shots' of the Napa Valley. She had used the photos that she had taken from the balloon as well as some others that she had sourced off the internet. She was going to give them to Alice and Jasper for Christmas.
As always when she was upstairs, time seemed to fly. Before she knew it, her phone was vibrating with a text. It was Edward to say that he was almost home.
Bella quickly switched off the lights and made her way downstairs. She quickly set the kitchen table and poured two glasses of water. She wasn't sure if they would play that evening and if they did, then they wouldn't drink any alcohol before hand.
Bella heard the front door open and before she could help herself she flew through the dining room and into the hall. Edward was just putting his bags down and shrugging out of his jacket. He looked up and saw Bella racing towards him.
He put out his arms and caught her as she wrapped her arms and legs around him.
Edward laughed as he heard her sigh his name into his neck as she breathed in his scent.
"Edward" she whispered.
He smiled as he held her close and kissed her neck, "Hey, Baby. Miss me?"
Bella nodded and slid down to the floor. Edward groaned as he felt every inch of her warm body sliding down his.
She looked up at him from under her lashes and smiled innocently, "Did you miss me?" she asked as she pressed against his raging hard on.
Minx!
Edward swatted her ass and smirked, "Yeah, like you can't feel just how much I missed you!"
Bella went onto her tip toes as Edward leaned down and claimed her mouth in a passionate kiss.
When they came up for air, Edward wound an arm around her as they walked upstairs together slowly.
"So filming is finished huh?" Bella said. "I bet that Alice is pleased that Carol is away from Jazz!" She was secretly pleased that she hadn't met the actress while she was in Los Angeles.
"Yeah, it's finished." Bella sat on the loveseat and watched as he got undressed. She realized as she looked at him closely that he looked tired.
She frowned at him, "Are you okay? You look tired." She said and he gave her his crooked smile and ran a hand through his hair.
Bella couldn't help the rush of desire that she felt as she took in his magnificent naked form. He was beautiful. His legs were toned and muscular, his hips were trim and the deep V that ran up from his 'happy trail' to his six pack stomach was enough to make Bella gasp quietly. Her eyes took in his defined Pecs. Her eyes shot up to meet his amused gaze as he cleared his throat and Bella felt herself blushing to her hairline.
She smiled weakly, "sorry" she said with a self conscious shrug.
Edward smirked at her again, "Hey, don't feel embarrassed, I leer at you all the time!"
Bella rolled her eyes and stood up to leave, "I was so not leering! God, that makes me sound like a lecherous pervert! Go and shower Sparky, I'm going to dish up for us!"
She gave a yelp as Edward made a lunge for her and she quickly side stepped him and hurried down the hallway to the stairs.
She laughed as she heard him mutter darkly, "So brave now, Little Girl… just wait!"
Bella was putting the second plate on the table when Edward walked in. He was wearing a t shirt and a pair of sleep pants.
"Baby, I'm going to have a beer, what about you?"
Bella was disappointed because she knew that he would not be taking her into the playroom, but she could see that he needed to rest.
"I'll have a glass of wine, Babe. There is an open bottle of wine on the door." She said and sat down.
Edward brought their drinks to the table and sat down.
"This looks good, I'm starving!" He said and they didn't talk again until their plates were half empty.
Edward told her about the wrap party that they had attended the night before and he spoke about his next project with Garrett and Jasper. He also told her that he normally took a few days to 'acclimatize' to being home once a movie was finished.
Jasper had told him to warn Bella about the funk that he usually fell into when he first got home, before it happened. Edward normally secluded himself in his house for a week or so, not speaking to anyone or seeing anyone before he slowly emerged again. He knew that Bella wouldn't know that about him and Jazz was right in reminding him to warn her.
They were curled up on the couch later, sipping coffee and listening to music when Edward brought up the agenda for the following evening.
"So the party is at Bill and Sonya's again. Alice and Jasper will come over here before and Alice will help you get ready." Edward said as Bella looked up at him.
"She has bought you some outfits that I arranged with her and I will choose what you will be wearing. Now, you will have some additional rules to follow and I wanted to go over them with you. I want you to think about them and if you have any question or need any clarification on any of them, we can do that tomorrow."
Bella nodded but said nothing as she waited for him to continue.
"Tomorrow, you will obviously be wearing my collar, so all of your normal rules apply. In addition, you will stay with me at all times, unless you need to go to the bathroom and then Alice will go with you. If I sit down, you will kneel on my left side on the floor, unless I tell you otherwise. You will not speak unless I give you my permission to do so. If anyone approaches you, and talks to you, you are to look at me first, understand?" Edward wanted to make sure that Bella understood.
Bella was chewing on her lip, "Hmm… but what if um, Bill and Sonya want to talk to me, you know, greet me?" she asked.
Edward kissed the top of her head, "They will greet me. If they greet you, look at me. If I nod then you may speak. You may look around, in fact I want you to look around and learn from what is happening and going on."
Bella pulled back so that she could look at him, "What if I have a question? Can I talk then?"
Edward looked at her and smiled, "Yes, you may, if you remember to do it respectfully. Now, I need you to trust me, Baby. I am not going to humiliate or embarrass you, but I expect you to obey me immediately if I tell you to do something, do you understand?"
Bella nodded and then she got a glint in her eyes and she wiggled her eyebrows and grinned, "Are we going to get kinky, Sparky?"
Edward laughed and ruffled her hair, "You are such an impudent submissive, you better remember that it's your ass if you disobey."
"Promises, promises, Cullen. Now let's go to bed before you fall over." She grinned and rolled her eyes as she heard Edward's "Yes, please"
"To sleep, silly!"
Bella led Edward upstairs. Edward sat down on the love seat and watched as Bella undressed. He let out a soft, "Fuck…" when he saw the sheer material of her bra and panties. Bella was unaware of Edward's scrutiny as she quickly pulled out an old college t-shirt of Edward's that was white with faded black lettering on the back. Edward felt his cock twitch as he looked at CULLEN spelled across her back.
Bella turned around and gave him a smile as she walked to his side of the bed and pulled back the covers. She climbed in first and patted the space next to her.
"Come to bed Sparky, you are falling asleep there." She said softly and Edward switched the lights off before he climbed in next to Bella. He put his head on her chest, slipping his arms around her as he lay half on his stomach. One hand slipped under her top immediately and Bella smiled as she felt his palm on her breast. Bella gently stroked her fingers through his hair and peppered tiny kisses on the back of his head.
Bella heard Edward's breathing even out within minutes. She switched off the bedside light and lay quietly.
An idea was forming in her mind as to what she wanted to give Edward for Christmas, but she wasn't sure if she was good enough to do what she wanted. If she did, she would need help. She felt sleep slipping over her as she matched her breathing to Edwards.
****~~~~PLU~~~~****
Bella felt a hand ghost down her stomach and fingers trailed across the hem of the t-shirt, which had ridden up during the night. As always when she slept with Edward, his hand seemed to find its way to her breast and she could feel it ever so gently stroking her nipple, and then he would pluck it or twist it gently. Every now and again his thumb nail would graze it, causing her nipple to pebble and Bella could feel the tug deep inside her.
Edward's other wondering hand skimmed over the front of her sleep shorts and his fingers cupped her Mons. Bella couldn't help pushing her hips forward to try and get some friction.
Bella felt the bed shake slightly and she heard his gruff chuckle. "Hmm… hey Love. Did you sleep well?" his voice was thick with sleepy arousal and Bella felt herself getting wetter at his husky tone.
Bella turned her head to one side and kissed his shoulder, nuzzling against him. "I always sleep well when you are home. What time is it?" she asked.
Edward turned her to lie on her back and braced himself on his hand next to her as he continued to run his fingers over her covered pussy.
Bella whimpered and opened her legs to give him access, but he resisted, deciding instead to tease her a little bit.
Edward knew that she wanted to make love but that wasn't part of his plan. He wanted her on the edge until the party. He wanted to see how she was going to react to everything that was going on. He wanted her in a heightened state of arousal because he knew that Bella would be less self conscious if she was feeling horny. But he also didn't want to be too obvious about bringing her to that place. He knew that she got really snappy when she wasn't fulfilled.
"It's a little after 8." He said and leaned down to kiss her softly. He squeezed her Mons with his whole hand while he pressed the tips of his fingers into her entrance. Then he rolled away and sat up running his hands through his hair. He felt so much better after having slept for almost ten hours straight.
Bella moaned as he moved off her. Pussy tease!
Bella got out of bed and pouted at Edward, he looked at her and smirked. Bella huffed and pulled the duvet, comforter and pillows off the bed to remake it.
They remade the bed together and Bella picked up their clothes and put them in the hamper in the dressing room. Edward walked into the bathroom and started the shower, "Are you joining me, Baby?" he asked.
Bella nodded and stripped out of her sleep clothes as Edward stepped into the shower. Bella was disappointed when Edward didn't make a move to make love to her, although they washed each other's hair. When Bella put her hands on his hips he stepped back with a gleam in his eyes.
"What?" Bella whined.
"Not now. Let's eat first and then I want to collar you." He said with a smile.
"Why can't you collar me first?" Bella pouted. She didn't see what the problem was. His hard on looked mouthwatering.
"Don't you want to talk about tonight first?" he asked.
"No, I think everything is quite clear and you said I can ask you questions, so I'm good to go, now can we please, please get on with it?" she asked pouting at him like a whinny child.
Edward smiled and kissed her quickly. "Finish in the shower, Isabella. I will see you in the bedroom." The Voice said and Bella let out a squeak of excitement.
Edward laughed and stepped out. He dried himself quickly and brushed his teeth. He ran a hand through his hair and grinned at his reflection when he heard Bella humming happily to herself.
He didn't bother to put any clothes on as he made his way to his dresser draw and pulled out the heart collar.
Bella washed herself and rinsed off as quickly as she could. When she stepped out of the shower she wrapped a towel around her hair and dried her body off.
Her body was almost crackling with excitement. She brushed her teeth and combed her hair. Edward hadn't said anything about clothes, so Bella left the towel around her body and she walked quickly into the bedroom
Edward was standing naked in front of the bed. There was a cushion on the carpet in front of him. Bella saw that he was naked and she carelessly dropped the towel and walked to stand in front of him. She knelt down and lowered her eyes to the floor. Sexy, sexy feet.
"Are you ready to serve me Isabella? " Edward asked.
Bella nodded but was silent.
"Answer me" he pressed.
"Yes, Sir, I am ready to serve you this weekend." She said quietly.
"Show me how much you want to serve me." He said huskily and Bella reached out to grip his hips with her hand as she wrapped her other hand around his cock. She almost over balanced in her eagerness to have him in her mouth. Edward put one hand on her shoulder to steady her and one in her hair.
Bella whimpered as her lips kissed along his length and her tongue darted out to flick over his head. She tasted his pre cum and without hesitation she took his cock into her mouth and grazed him gently with her teeth.
"Aaaagh Fuuuck!" Edward hissed. He couldn't resist grinding his hips into Bella face; he didn't want to hurt her; so he forced himself to stand still. His cock was so hard and the sight of Bella kneeling before him, in submission, working her magic over his cock and using her hand to massage his balls, it was almost too much. Edward closed his eyes. He wasn't going to last long at all, it had been too long.
"Suck me harder… get ready to swallow everything that I give you, Isabella…." Edward shouted as his cock disgorged his cum down her throat. Bella sucked greedily, swallowing and sucking, drawing as much as she could out of him.
Edward's hands pushed her gently and Bella sat back on her heels. She wiped her mouth with the back of her hand and smiled. She knew that her Master was pleased with her by the look of bliss on his face. She quickly lowered her eyes as he opened his.
He reached over to the chair and picked up her collar. He brushed her wet hair over her shoulder and stepped behind her as he put the necklace on her. Bella smiled as she felt the weight of the heart against her throat.
"Stand up, Isabella" Edward said and he helped her to her feet, turning her around to face him.
"Look at me, Little Girl" he whispered.
Bella looked up and smiled at him. Edward reached up and stroked her cheek, "Are you happy?" he asked and Bella's smile became a grin, "Very, very happy Master." She said.
Edward's hand curved around her neck and he drew her closer as his nose and lips skimmed over her eyebrow and cheekbone, his lips leaving a trail of electricity on her skin. Bella was desperate to have him touch her!
His lips teased hers, dropping little kisses, his teeth nipped her bottom lip, Bella growled deep in her chest in frustration and her hands clenched into fists.
When he pulled back, Bella's eyes fluttered open and she looked into his sparkling green gaze.
"What do you want, Isabella?" His voice was dark and husky.
"Kiss me…" she whispered.
His eyes darkened and changed from playful to lust filled and Bella gasped into his mouth as he took her captive.
When he lifted his head, Bella realized that she was still holding her breath and she sucked air in desperately.
"Let's get dressed; you are far too distracting like this. Your clothes are on your bed." He said with a smirk and walked casually into the dressing room
Bella opened the door to her subs room and she saw the grey yoga pants, grey and pink sports bra with a grey hooded sweat shirt.
Bella smiled when she saw the pink socks on top of the trainers and the almost matching pink panties.
She got dressed and pulled her hair up into a messy bun. She touched her collar with a smile and made her way downstairs.
Edward was in the kitchen making smoothies when she got there and Bella pulled out eggs, bacon and a French loaf.
Bella grilled the bacon and made several slices of French toast as Edward set two places at the kitchen table and put her large smoothie down next to her place and sipped his while he leaned up against the counter.
Bella platted Edward's breakfast and turned to smile at him, "Your breakfast is ready, Master."
Edward smiled at her and took the plate, "You don't have to serve me this morning, just bring your plate." He said.
Breakfast was over and Bella even though Edward thought that she hadn't eaten enough, he let it go. He didn't want to fight over this issue if he could avoid it.
He stood up and held out his hand to Bella.
"Come on, let's go work out." He said.
Bella was not allowed to go overboard and Edward stopped her treadmill at three miles. She was allowed to do weight training and was relieved that once Edward was happy that she knew what to do, he left her alone. Bella got hot after her warm up and pulled her sweatshirt off, so that she was only in her sports bra.
She was watching herself in the mirror to check that her frame and movements were correct when she felt a spark of electricity on the back of her neck.
She looked past her refection and saw Edward in the far corner of the gym on a rowing machine. She stared at the way his muscle rippled across his chest as he pulled himself up and his thighs stretched.
Bella's mouth was dry. Oh. My. God. She felt sweat run down her neck that had nothing to do with physical exertion. She picked up the towel that lay beside her and wiped her face and neck.
She quickly took a drink of water.
"If you are finished your work out, you can go shower and change. I think that you can have some free time. Are you certain that you don't have anything to ask me about tonight or anything else that is on your mind? This will be your last chance and your last warning, Isabella. If you break any rules today, you will be punished." He said quietly.
Bella stared at him for a moment and bit her lip, "There's nothing Master." She said. Unless you count that I want to tear my clothes off and push you back onto the yoga mat ride you like a pony!
Bella bit her lip to keep the giggle inside. She was loosing it!
Edward frowned at her. "You may go, Isabella." He said and Bella walked out of the gym with an extra swagger to her hips.
He finished his work out and took a long shower in the gym. When he was finished he walked upstairs and dressed in jeans and a t-shirt.
The house was quiet and he wondered where Bella was. He went to his study and the rest of the morning passed quickly.
Bella knocked on his door and he saw her standing in the doorway in position.
"Yes Isabella?" he asked as he came around the corner of his desk.
"Lunch is ready, Master" she said.
"Lead the way" Edward said and he watch Bella ass move, she was desperately trying to get him to notice her.
Bella had set a place in the dining room for one. Edward smiled to himself as he sat down. She was putting him in his place.
He allowed her to serve him and then dismissed her to eat in the kitchen.
Bella sat quietly eating her chicken salad and juice. She was nervous about the party. She wondered if it would be different with Edward there. She had enjoyed her morning and she had sketched out some ideas of what she wanted to give Edward for Christmas. It would mean that she would need Alice's and maybe even Kate's assistance, but the more she thought about it the more excited she became.
Bella heard Edward scrape his chair back and she jumped up and rushed into the dining room.
Edward stood up as Bella skidded to a stop just inside the dining room doors. "I'm sorry Master. I was lost in my thoughts over my lunch…"
Edward held up his hand, "Relax Isabella. Go back and finish eating. You can clear the dishes when you are finished. I'll be in the music room. Alice and Jasper will be here shortly." He smiled at her and walked into the hallway.
Bella frowned as she started after him. He still hadn't really touched her today or last night. Was he trying to drive her crazy?
Bella finished eating and cleaned up the dining room and kitchen. She was drawn into the den by the beautiful and now familiar tune that Edward was playing.
Edward had told her that this was the tune that she had inspired. Bella took a cushion and walked quietly into the music room and sat down just inside the door.
She loved to listen to him play. Bella could feel her spirit calming down. All the tension of the morning just seemed to fade away as his fingers flew over the keys.
Bella heard the doorbell sound and then the front door slam. She smiled as she heard Jasper's voice.
She got up quickly and met them in the hallway. She hugged Alice and then Jasper and felt that spark of electricity as Edward came to stand behind her as he greeted his friend and sister.
Bella noticed that Jasper was carrying several clothes bags.
"Can I take those from you?" she asked, but Edward was shaking his head.
"That's okay, Isabella. Why don't you and Alice chat for a while? Jasper and I have got this." He said and they turned to go upstairs.
Alice shrugged her shoulders at Bella's questioning look, "Want some coffee?" Bella asked and they walked into the kitchen.
"Edward's been acting strange today."Bella said.
"In what way?"
"Well he collared me this morning, but we haven't… you know. And then we almost had an argument about my fucking weight and he's been fine but withdrawn. Not touching me or anything." Bella was biting her lip and frowning as she stirred her coffee.
"Bella, relax! You really need to stop over thinking things. Are you excited about the party tonight?" Alice asked.
Bella nodded, "Yes I am actually. And more than a little nervous, what are the outfits like that you had to buy?"
Alice gave her a wicked smile. "Well, there are quite a few. They are up there now, deciding what we are going to wear. I must warn you that I think we are going to be on very short leashes, excuse the pun, tonight."
Bella started laughing at Alice's use of words as she thought about her weekend on a leash and Alice joined in. Soon they were doubled over in fits of giggles and Bella felt much better as they wiped their eyes.
The guys walked in and looked at the two girls.
Jasper chuckled, "I don't know, Edward, I think we should be quite nervous about what these two are up to!"
Edward laughed and ran his hands down Bella's shoulders. She shivered at his touch, but remained silent.
"I think you two had better start getting ready. I know how long you take Alice and with the two of you, it could be longer." He said.
Alice grabbed Bella's hand and pulled her off the bar stool. "Come on Twister! Let's go see what we are wearing."
****~~~~PLU~~~~****
Bella and Alice had spent the afternoon pampering themselves and each other. They had done facemasks, manicures and pedicures and they had even checked for stray hairs. Alice had brought some home wax and they had spent rather painful hours going over their arms, legs and pussies. Bella had refused to have Alice touch her down there, as she put it, much to Alice's amusement and so instead she had shaved.
Bella stared back at the reflection in the mirror. "Alice, I can't go out like this…" she whispered.
Bella was dressed in a skirt that looked like it had been painted onto her body. It was green leather that was basically two pieces of leather that were about five and a half inches wide, held together on the sides with leather string laces. Her entire hip showed. It reached to just below her ass cheeks. Barely. Her matching green bustier was not much better, except that the boning went underneath her breasts; pushing them up to make a cleavage that Bella had never seen, with a sheer green chiffon long sleeved 'blouse' underneath it. Her nipples were covered by a design in black sequins similar to nipple tassels. There was no place for underwear.
She was wearing black thigh highs with the same green ribbon at the top and a pair of black Christian Louboutin pumps, which Alice assured her, was the lowest heel. Edward had been insistent that he wanted her to wear those shoes.
Her hair was loose and straight, hanging down her back like a chocolate curtain. Alice had done her eyes in smoky grays' with a hint of green. Two coats of mascara later and Bella hardly recognized the sexy, siren look-alike in the mirror.
"Ali… it's too… I look… I'm going to get arrested!" Bella finally said and Alice laughed.
"You look fantastic, Bella! I must say, my brother has excellent taste. I was really hesitant when he emailed his order to me to collect, but I have to say, he did good. I can't wait to see the other outfits that he chose." Alice winked at her and moved to check her own make up.
Alice looked like a sex kitten. Her outfit was a white ruffled micro mini skirt with white fishnet stocking, white suspender belt. She wore a pink leather halter neck bra. Bella knew that Alice was an exhibitionist and didn't mind showing herself off. So the fact that she was wearing no panties didn't seem to bother her, whereas Bella felt like she was going to hyperventilate.
There was a knock at the door and Edward opened it without waiting for permission. Of course he didn't need permission.
His eyes turned almost black when he saw Bella. "You look exquisite, Isabella." He said.
Bella blushed as she stared at him. For a moment she forgot and blatantly ogled him until Alice elbowed her in the side.
Edward was wearing black leather pants with a dark green button down shirt that was the same color as her outfit. His hair was slightly damp and wild and he had a shadow from not shaving since yesterday. Bella felt her thighs get damp.
She lowered her eyes and stood in a submissive stance.
"Alice, you look lovely. Are you ready, ladies?" He said although he had scarcely taken his eyes off Bella.
Alice and Bella nodded. Edward pushed the door open further and Bella and Alice walked out into the hallway. Jasper was waiting outside and Alice made her way to him. He leaned forward and whispered something in her ear and Bella saw her blushing. Alice Cullen blushing! Jasper held something white out and Bella saw that it was a cloak with a hood.
"Isabella" The Voice said and Bella turned to face Edward. She could feel him looking at her as she kept her head down. She felt the heat coming off his body, "You have no idea how hard I am for you Little Girl. I will be so proud to have you next to me tonight. What color are you, Isabella?" He said softly.
Bella didn't hesitate, "Green, Master." She whispered and Edward turned her around as he draped a dark green velvet cloak over her. He turned her again and tied the cord around her neck.
"Do you remember everything I told you about tonight?" Edward asked and Bella nodded.
"Good girl. Let's go." He took one of her hands in his and walked down the stairs.
Alice and Jasper were going in his car. Alice had warned her that she would be bound at the wrists and that Bella shouldn't be concerned when she saw it.
Edward didn't talk to her during the short car ride and Bella kept her head and eyes down. Edward put a hand high on her thigh and he was gently fingering the lace on her stockings.
He pulled into the driveway and Bella was shocked when her door was opened and a valet stood waiting to help her out. She was unsure of what to do, but Edward put a restrain hand on her leg.
"Stay here." He said and got out.
He walked around and handed the valet his keys. Bella placed her hand in his and got out of the car. She could feel her knees shaking slightly; she was really nervous all of a sudden.
Edward kept hold of her hand as he knocked on the door. It was opened by Sonya. Bella kept her head down as Sonya greeted Edward warmly.
"Master Edward! It's great to see you again; it's been far too long. My Master was very glad to get your acceptance. Hello again Bella." She said.
Bella looked at Edward and he smiled and nodded.
Bella smiled shyly at Sonya, "Hi Sonya. You look lovely tonight."
Sonya was wearing a French maid's outfit, complete with black fishnet stockings and a maid's cap.
Sonya laughed, "It's one of my Master's favorite outfits. Let me take your cloak. Enjoy yourselves tonight."
Bella untied it and reluctantly handed it over. She had the overwhelming urge to cover herself. Edward saw the blush on her cheeks and caught the fluttering of her hands.
"Relax", he whispered and put his hand on the small of her back to guide her and to calm her.
Bella took a deep breath and clasped her hands in front of her. Edward moved with obvious familiarity into the lounge where most people had gathered.
Several voices called out to greet him and they stopped a few times. Bella kept her head down as Doms came up and greeted Edward. Most of them completely ignored Bella but the hardest was when a couple of them spoke about her as if she wasn't even there!
Bella was standing quietly listening to Edward talking to Jasper when a woman approached Edward and kissed him on the lips. Bella gasped and felt Edward's hand smack her bottom sharply.
"Edward Darling! It's wonderful to see you." The voice was dripping sex.
Bella bit her lip to keep from snarling at the bitch. She saw blood red talon like nails clutching Edward's arm and she fought a very real desire to break those fingers.
Bella wanted to see what she looked like but she dare not, instead she stepped back slightly and glanced at Alice. She saw Alice shake her head slightly. Bella looked up further and saw Jasper frowning at her. Shit!
Who is this bitch? Can't she see that Edward is with somebody?
Bella's hands were clenched into fists in front of her and she felt Edward's gaze sweep over her.
"I see you have a lot of training to do with this one, Edward. When I heard that you had actually collared someone, I would have hoped that it would at least be one of my girls. I can always assist you with this one. Isabella, is it? Hello Isabella."
Bella didn't move.
"She looks far too spirited to be a good submissive." The woman reached forward and grasped Bella's chin.
"Look at me girl!" The woman barked and Bella saw Edward's hand shoot out and take the offending hand away.
"Now, now, Miss Mandy, you must know that I would never let anyone touch my Isabella." His tone was mild but Bella could hear the steel in his voice.
She tried to bit back a smirk. That that, Domme Bitch from hell!
Bella heard Edward's sharp breath, "Isabella, look at me."
Her eyes snapped up to meet his disapproving glare, "You will greet Miss Mandy." He said sternly. Shit! She had forgotten to look at him. Bella forced herself to not show the animosity that she was feeling.
She looked up into the face of an attractive red haired woman. She was tall and was wearing a black cat-suite. She looked to be in her late forties. Her face was harshly made up with far too much powder that showed, her grey eyes were glaring at Bella.
"Hmm, you are a feisty little thing aren't you? The things you could learn by spending a weekend with me!" she said with a laugh. She turned to Edward again, "If you change your mind, My Sweet, you have my number…" she glanced over at Bella and smiled slyly before she kissed Edward on his lips again, making sure that she took her time.
Edward gave her a smirk and shaking his head, Miss Mandy gave Bella a wink and she turned to flirt with Jasper who was treated to more of the same treatment.
Bella was ready to slit Miss Mandy's throat! She could feel the heat radiating from her cheeks. She kept her eyes on her feet as she tried to control the sudden rage that she felt.
"Be careful, Isabella, you are getting very close to crossing the line." Bella felt her toes curl as she felt Edward's breath tickle her ear.
If Bella had hackles, they would have risen. Her back stiffened and she stayed absolutely still.
He went on, "Remember that I want you to look around, but do not stare at anyone for too long. If someone stares at you, break eye contact immediately and look down, understand?"
Bella nodded.
Edward ignored her for the next half an hour as he spoke with people. Bella looked around and saw many of the same people that had been at the last party. She saw a few women who didn't appear to be with anyone standing at the bar. They had been staring at Jasper and Edward since they had arrived and Bella felt a rush of jealousy cruise through her.
She was shocked as she had never felt this particular emotion before. She didn't understand it. But at that moment, she didn't care if she got a hundred strokes with a paddle or a whip, Edward was hers! She quickly looked away from them after one of the women whispered something to the other two and they turned to stare at her with open hostility.
She averted her eyes and glanced at the Crotch rope tie/Mata Nawa Shibari demonstration that was taking place. The Shibari expert Dom and his sub were standing in the 'formal' lounge area. The sub's torso had been tightly bound with a fishbone pattern. Her breasts which were full had been bound at the base, so that they appeared stretched and engorged. Her Dom was currently demonstrating how by adjusting the ropes on either side of her labia, he could bring her to climax without having touched her body with his fingers. Bella thought that she might like to try this with Edward; the way the ropes twisted around the body turned her on and she wondered if Edward would like to see her bound this way.
There seemed to be more people this time though. She looked for Alice and Jasper and spotted them in the room where 'mocktails' and refreshments were being served. Bella's stomach chose that moment to grumble.
Bella was mortified and felt herself blush to her hairline. Edward broke off his conversation and turned to her, taking hold of her arm, "Did you not eat before we left home?" He asked and Bella stared at the weave of his shirt to avoid the glare that she knew she was getting and shook her head.
"Isabella, you will answer me." He said.
"No Master, I was too nervous to eat. I ate an apple and some nuts this afternoon, though." She whispered, too aware of the Dom and sub that had been chatting with Edward and were staring at her and Edward in amusement.
"You'd better feed her Edward, I'm sure she will need her strength tonight!" The Dom, Alastair, laughed and clapped Edward on the shoulder. He walked away with his sub, a young, good looking black man who was being led by a thin chain attached to nipple clamps.
Edward put his hand under her chin until she looked at him. "What color are you Isabella?" he said and Bella could see that he was more concerned than angry with her. She let out a sigh of relief and relaxed a little more.
"Green, Master." She said and licked her lips.
Edward looked at her for a moment to make sure that she was telling the truth.
"This is two infringements of your rules, Isabella." He said." Come on; let's feed you before you fall over." He said and Bella smiled at him.
Edward dished up a plate of finger food; that Bella was sure she would not be able to eat. Edward sat down on a straight backed chair and motioned to Bella to sit at his feet.
Bella stared at the floor and bit her lip, how the fuck did he expect her to get down there when she had no fucking panties on?
Edward sighed and dropped a cushion down and picked Bella up. She quickly bent her legs and he put her down in a kneeling position in front of him, between his legs. Her eyes wondered up his legs and thighs and they widened at the obvious bulge in his pants.
Edward snapped his fingers and Bella looked up at him. He was smirking and shaking his head at her. "Are you that hungry, Little Girl?" He said chuckling and Bella nodded.
He laughed this time, and held out a tiny cocktail sausage to her. She opened her mouth and quickly sucked the morsel in, before he could remove his fingers, Bella flicked her tongue around them.
"I want to try something later on, I don't really want to tell you when, but it'll be different. If you are willing, I think it will be very pleasurable for you. You have to trust me though. But this is your choice. Are you willing to try something?" he asked quietly.
Bella licked her lips and nodded eagerly.
Edward smiled and the next serving of food, which was a carrot dipped in some dressing, he ran over her lip, which she opened in anticipation, she stuck out her tongue and Edward popped the delicacy onto it. Bella grinned at him as she sucked the dressing off the carrot stick, before chewing the rest.
They played like this for a few moments, before Edward was engaged in conversation by Garrett and Kate. Garrett didn't greet or even look at Bella. Edward handed Bella the plate and motioned her to move to the side of his chair, which she did.
He would occasionally stroke her hair or rake his fingers through it. Bella knew that this was becoming a habit of his, it also help Bella to stay grounded and calmed her down, having Edward touching her. It was just like the way he ran his fingers through his own hair.
She finished her food and the small glass of water that he had given her. She looked around and saw Alice looking at her. Bella crossed her eyes and saw Alice turn her face away to hide a smile.
Bella needed the bathroom and she reached up to touch Edward's arm. Edward looked at her as she touched him. She started to speak but he just said. "You may be excused, Isabella." He put a hand under her arm and hoisted her to her feet. Bella stumbled slightly and walked over to where Alice was sitting on Jasper's lap.
Jasper smiled as he watched Bella approach. "It looks like your side kick needs you, Mary-Alice. Remember, you go and come straight back."
Alice nodded as she got off his lap.
There was a whipping demonstration that Jasper and Edward wanted the girls to see that was happening in twenty minutes.
Alice took Bella's hand and they walked upstairs together. "How are you Twister?" Alice asked. Bella pulled a face. "I've been better. What's with all the clingy women tonight?" Bella changed her voice, "She's a feisty little thing… seriously!" Bella said and Alice giggled until a Dom gave them a glare and they quickly fell silent.
Alice led her into a bathroom and closed the door. Bella looked around. She used the toilet quickly and went over to wash her hands. She knew that bathrooms were no go areas for play, but she did a double take as she touched the tap and saw that it looked like a bent penis.
"WHAT THE..!" Bella said and Alice burst out laughing.
"I know! Look at one of the showerheads…" She said.
Bella washed her hands and tried not to touch the tap. She gingerly stepped over to the shower and looked inside. There were four shower heads only the one over head was shaped normally. The other three that came out of each wall was varying sizes of… penises…!
She jumped when Alice whispered behind her, "Just imagine the fun you could have…" she said snidely and chuckled as Bella whispered, "Ohmygod…" in awe.
"Come one Twister, they will be wondering where we are, and you don't want to get into trouble." Alice said and they left.
As they were about to go downstairs, Alice caught sight of Edward and Jasper sitting in one of the common rooms. Edward was sitting slightly apart from Jasper with a sort of a partition of glass bricks between them. Edward was leaning on the wall grinning at something that Jasper had said. The demonstration was about to begin. The girls started walking over when Alice felt Bella stop. She turned to look at Bella but noticed that Bella was staring at Edward's feet.
One of the women from the bar was kneeling at Edward's feet. Bella took a sharp breath.
"What the fuck…" she said and started forward. Alice put one hand on Bella's arm to stop her and put her other over Bella's mouth.
Alice began to whisper as quickly as she could because everyone was taking their places, "Just listen to me! That is Vanessa; she used to play with Edward and Jasper. They have known her for years. She is a sub that prefers not to have her own Dom. There are a couple of them here tonight. They are available for threesomes or whatever, now you are going to go over and pretend that everything is fine. She is no threat to you Bella. Now Edward is looking over here and wondering what is going on. Come on before we are both get into trouble again!"
She pulled Bella forward and went to stand to the side of Jasper, slightly behind him. Bella copied her and stood to the side of Edward's chair. She could not stop herself from glaring at the woman who was kneeling at Edward's feet in perfect submissive pose.
Bella wanted to pull Vanessa's hair out! She felt a wave of hatred and was shocked by its intensity.
The demonstration began and Edward reached out and put a hand around the back of Bella's thigh, stroking the ribbon at the top of her stocking. Bella jumped as she felt him pinch her inner thigh. She knew what he wanted. He wanted her to open her legs. She looked down at him, but he seemed oblivious to everything except the Dominant and submissive in front of him who was bound and getting whipped with different whips.
Bella held her breath as she opened her legs slightly. Edward pinched her again. Bella opened her legs further. His fingers now ghosted over her slit, ever so gently tracing her labia. Bella bit back a moan and tried to open herself up to him further. Instead of taking advantage, Edward pulled her until she realized that he wanted her to sit on his lap, but instead of sittings sideways like she normally did, Edward put his legs together and made Bella sit down facing forward. He put his hands on her knees and gently pulled them apart.
Bella gasped. Vanessa was kneeling directly in front of her! She couldn't do this? What was Edward thinking? Bella felt her breathing pick up slightly. Did Edward want to humiliate her by having Vanessa watch what he was going to do to her?
Edward's hands began to stroke up and down her knees and Bella could feel his chest against her back.
"Do you trust me Isabella?" He murmured in her ear.
Bella squeezed her eyes shut for a moment, good question… did she?
She barely recognized her voice as she whispered hoarsely, "Yes, Master"
"I said I would push you… not humiliate you. Sit very still and open your legs for me…" Oh my…
Edward was sitting in the last of the informal rows. She knew that no one could see Edward's lap from anywhere in the room. Bella risked a quick look at Jasper, but he was completely engrossed in the demonstration and Alice now sat on his lap facing away from Bella.
Bella took a deep breath and opened her legs. Edward moved them so that they were on the outside of his legs. Bella felt the cool air on her sex. She could feel her juices run down her slit and into the crack of her ass. Her heart was racing. Bella could smell her own arousal!
Oh. My. GOD! Can everyone else smell me too?
Edward continued to run his hands over her legs. He wasn't in a hurry, he rubbed his thumbs over her knees, and his fingers were pointed inwards and fanned up her inner legs, just below her knees. Bella's breathing hitched.
"Quiet, Isabella" The Voice said, his breath blowing gently into her ear.
He brought his hands up further; the tips of his fingers caressed her skin, setting fire where ever they touched. His thumbs brushed the tops of her stockings.
"You are so wet, Isabella. You are so ready for me… do you want me to touch your pussy? Watch what is happening in front of you… look at the Dom as he releases the whip against his sub's hips and lower back. Can you see the look of ecstasy on her face? Pain can be a culmination of lust and pleasure, it heightens your senses… it peaks at the moment when pleasure becomes painful and pain is pleasurable…" The Voice was all Bella could focus on.
Bella was panting as she felt the knot in her stomach tightening. She no longer cared where they were and the fact that Vanessa was kneeling at their feet. Bella did not care if she could smell Bella's arousal. All she knew was that it was Edward that was bringing her to orgasm, and she was even more of a turn on.
Edward's thumbs were framing her labia, the tips of his fingers tracing her slit. She tried to grind herself into his hands to get more friction, but he wouldn't allow her to.
His thumb nails dipped in slightly and grazed her clit and Bella bit back a moan. The girl sitting on the bench was also moaning as the Dom switched to a bull whip. Bell had always been afraid of this instrument and she gave it a wide birth in the play room, not even wanting to look at it as she cleaned and polished the other paddles and whips.
But seeing the handle clutched in the Dom's hand; the way his arm extended as he brought it forward, watching the tail wrap around his sub's waist and up her body; as the end curling around her naked breast. Bella watched as she screamed in ecstasy and pain and suddenly Edward's fingers plunged into her pussy. Bella arched her back, just as the girl on the bench arched her and they came together, almost violently.
Bella was only conscious of the deep release inside of her, she felt as if sparks were shooting from her cunt up into her chest, her nipples were aching and rock hard, and there was a buzzing in her ears as her body convulsed and spasmed.
Bella vaguely became aware of people moving about in the dimly lit space. Edward had turned her around and her legs were on either side of his hips. Her head was slumped into the crook of his neck. Her arms were draped over his shoulders.
Edward's hands were running up and down her back and Bella reveled in his touch.
"Isabella? Can you hear me Little Girl?" his lips brushed against her ear.
She nodded numbly.
"Master… I can't move…" she said, all Bella wanted to do was crawl into to bed and sleep for eternity; her body and her mind was tired, she could not gain focus on anything.
She felt his chest shake as he chuckled. "Its okay, Sweetheart, you kind of passed out from your orgasm. Sensory overload or sub space as it is more commonly known. Do you feel okay?" he asked.
Bella giggled and she nodded, "Like oil or something. Numb and shaky. Like melting ice-cream…"
Edward chuckled again; she wasn't making any sense at all.
They sat quietly for another fifteen minutes until Bella felt more like herself. She still felt tired though.
She sat up and tried to move off Edward. He gripped her bottom and stood up. He slowly lowered her to her feet and held her firmly until she assured him that she was fine.
Edward led her upstairs to the bathroom and Bella used the toilet and cleaned herself up as he stood outside at the door. She giggled over the penis taps again as she washed her hands and splashed water on her cheeks. She checked her face in the mirror and was surprised that except for the bright spots of color on her cheeks and the sparkle in her eyes, she looked fine.
Bella opened the bathroom door to find Vanessa and her two friends talking to Edward in the hallway.
Vanessa looked at Bella and winked at her. Bella's eyes narrowed. Mine! Bitch! He is mine!
Bella came to stand just behind Edward to the side of him. She stared at the three women and put her hand on Edward's arm. She smiled at the women, yeah, like I said, He. Is. Mine.
She felt Edward stiffen at her side and looked up at him. He was glaring at her and her hand on his arm.
Bella felt herself blush and quickly dropped her hand. She lowered her hand and clutched her fingers in front of her.
"Miss Mandy is right, Master Edward, she looks like she needs some lessons in manners!" one of the bitches said.
"Jennifer, do not talk to me like that! I would have you remember that you do not talk about my submissive like that. Now ladies," Bella heard them giggle and she rolled her eyes, "we need to do our rounds and say our good-byes." Edward said smoothly.
"Isabella" he said and walked to the stairs. Bella kept her head down as she followed him down the stairs. She knew that she was out of line and she should not have tried to stake her claim to Edward. He was her Dom. He had staked his claim to her when he collared her.
They got to the bottom of the stairs and Edward stopped. Bella almost stumbled into him, but stopped herself just in time.
He half turned to her, "If you do that again, I will spank you right here, do you understand? We will talk about this when we get home, Isabella. For now, follow your fucking rules and do not embarrass me!" His voice was quiet but Bella felt his words cut through her.
She had displeased him. She knew that Edward was respected in these circles. He was popular and Bella had disrespected him by being possessive publicly. She felt a wave of misery roll over her. She had really messed up. None of those women were his submissive, she was!
Edward was really pissed with Bella's show of possessiveness, but he was still her Dom. Edward fetched her bottle of water; he knew that she needed to keep her liquid intake up. Epically after a powerful orgasm like she had experienced. Bella followed behind Edward sipping on the water that he had given her. She kept her eyes down and didn't bother to listen to any of the conversations going on around her. Bella did not want to mess up again tonight and she thought this was the safest way to avoid any more of Edward's tongue-lashings. Bella did not want to see the triplets or Red Talon lady; this was a sure way to avoid everyone.
"Bella?" she heard her name but didn't look up.
Jasper frowned at Edward, "What's going on Edward? Is there a problem" he said. Jasper could feel Alice almost humming next to him. He knew that she was very protective over Bella and he was only just able to keep her in her place.
Edward shook his head, "Tomorrow, Bro. I think that we will be leaving. We'll see you later."
He turned and Bella risked a quick look at Alice. She saw the anger in Alice's face and shook her head at her as she turned to follow behind her Master, not even bothering to look at Jasper, she could not handle any more disappointed looks tonight.
He made small talk with Bill while Sonya fetched Bella's cloak. Bella was in her own mind and had no idea if Bill or Sonya spoke to her or said good night. Bella only became aware slightly when she felt Edward fastened up her cloak and pulled the hood over Bella's hair.
The valet had the car outside and handed Edward his keys.
Edward opened Bella's door and she climbed in. The drive home was silent giving Bella too much time to think over the night, the jealousy she felt, the anger at Edward for allowing those women to fawn over him in front of her, Vanessa kneeling in front of Edward, the embarrassment of Edward getting her off in front of her. The possessiveness she showed in front of those girls. The talking to that Edward had given her and how he sounded disappointed in her failure to comply too his rules. Bella was struggling to hold in all the emotions that were swirling through her.
Edward turned to Bella when he stopped the car at the front door. "Normally, I would insist that we go straight to the playroom, but you are tired from your experience. Go to bed and we will deal with it in the morning."
Bella nodded and got out of the car. Edward's voice stopped her, "Isabella?" She bent down to peer at him, trying to hide the tears that had begun to fall, "You may sleep in your bedroom tonight, if you wish to, I can come and wake you later."
"Whatever pleases you Master." She said dully and walked up the steps to the house.
She walked upstairs and felt the tears slip down her cheeks. She was an idiot! Of course he was going to put her in her place! Now she had the choice. Bella's mind was overloaded with everything she had been thinking about and now he wanted her to make a decision of sleeping together or alone. What if he wanted her to choose their bed? What if he did not want her there at all? What if this was a test? Too much information to digest, why did she have to make the decision; he is her Dom; he should make the decision.
Bella walked into her room and took her clothes off. She packed them away, not knowing how these things were cleaned… hmm she would have to ask her Master when her collar was off.
Bella touched the heart tenderly. She wiped her face and made a face when she saw smudge of make up on her hand.
She took a long shower and washed her hair, reveling in the warm soothing water. She was suddenly very tired, so she towel dried her hair and pulled on a pair of sleep pants and a tank top.
Bella brushed her teeth and quickly tidied up the bedroom, making sure that there were no clothes lying around. She switched off the lights and slid in between the sheets. She knew that she would have to accept her punishment in the morning, but she felt no anger or resentment about it. She had agreed to be collared and she had agreed to serve her Master. She had messed up and she knew it was another learning curve. She had to know that this new emotion of possessiveness and jealousy had no place in this relationship, but how did she stop it?
Bella felt surprised as she slipped into unconscious sleep. Her last thought was that she would be awake for hours…
A/N:DO NOT HATE ME FOR THIS CHAPTER! This is a turning point in Bella and Edward's relationship. Honestly it is. Some of you hate what you perceive as Bella's weaknesses, but really now, we all have weaknesses and insecurities and I know that I am great at teetering on the brink of doing something courageous, only to pull myself back and go into hiding.
Your reviews and comments are all appreciated. Okay, the second play party – so not Bella's finest moment, but it could have been worse.
Some of you asked me the last time about Sub Space – well believe it or not, it actually happens. Normally it occurs after a prolonged time of stimulation – either pain or pleasure or a mixture of both. It is basically a sensory overload – like an electricity power spike! The symptoms vary for everyone and can be excessive crying, sleeping, laughing, shaking even ejaculating (yes for girls!), incoherency and almost all cases are followed by deep sleep. Like Edward said in Twilight, "…you can Google it!" Dom care is really important as the submissive is in no position to gauge pain thresholds and can really be hurt if not supervised by a responsible person. I hope you like this chapter.
So next, we have the ramifications of the party. Please continue to send me reviews – they seriously make my day!
Love till next time,
Michele
