Chapter Thirty eight.
Bella's POV.
Edward and I finally arrived at the hotel in Seattle, a little after ten on Thursday night. Where he insisted on christening the entire suite, the sofa, the mini bar, the bath, and finally the bed, twice! Well at the very least I was limbered up for today, I had an early start this morning and was practising not laughing when I introduced myself to my Sensei for the weekend 'Master Bates.' I mean seriously, how am I not going to laugh when I meet him? I giggled at the mere thought of meeting him.
Edward tightened his arms around me. "You're thinking about meeting Master Bates again aren't you?" He asked with a chuckle. I nodded, still giggling. "He must be used to people's reactions, don't worry about it," he said.
"He has a reputation for being harder on women; I can't afford to give him more of a reason to go harder on me." I said.
"I'd rather not think about someone called 'Masturbates' going harder on you, thanks very much," he replied, his face in my hair and his morning wood rubbing against my bum.
I rolled my eyes, "He might still be here when you take your 3rddegree in three years or so." I said.
"When I finally catch you up, you mean?"
"Nu uh..." I said turning in his arms to face him. "I'm not stopping to wait for you to catch up, I'm only seven years from making Grandmaster." I said, making him roll his eyes. Though in reality I knew that would probably be closer to ten to fifteen years of super intense training.
Edward hitched my leg up over his hip and rubbed against my sex, I moaned but tried to push him away. I needed to get up.
"Edward, it's already ten after six, I have to get up." I said, still trying, albeit half-heartedly to push him off me.
He rolled us over until he was lying on top of me. "And I really need to get up too," he said rubbing his impressive erection against me.
"As good as that sounds I need to take a shower." I said.
"Okay," he said simply, getting up and pulling me with him, then bending down, grabbing my thighs and throwing me over his shoulder, before striding into the bathroom and straight into the shower.
Switching the water on and standing me under it, fortunately I was still naked from last night, but the water was cold. I slapped his arm... hard.
He laughed in response. "The sooner I get to fuck you, the sooner we'll be done and I can walk you the two blocks to the Academy," he said.
"You don't hav..." I started to say, but I didn't get to finish. Edward's tongue was in my mouth and he moaned as he slid his hand between my legs, and I forgot what I was about to say.
Forty minutes later we walked up to the building with 'Seattle Black Belt Academy' written over the door. I was nervous, and I knew the next four days were going to be extremely hard work, and my body would be pushed to incredible limits and beyond. Edward backed me up to the wall and took my face in his hands.
"You are amazing, you have never failed at anything and you will not start now. Now go kick some top grade ass and make me proud," he said before kissing me.
I managed a weak smile as my stomach growled angrily.
"You really should have eaten something this morning," he said, scowling at me.
"I couldn't, but I promise I will get something if and when they allow us to break for lunch." I promised.
"Are you sure you don't want me to get you anything whilst I'm at the mall?" He asked. "No chocolate or anything?" I gave him my, 'what do you think stupid' look and he rolled his eyes. "I know you only eat Cadbury's Dairy Milk, and we don't have it over here... you will have to get your Mom to send you some more." He added.
"I told her that's all I want for Christmas... boxes of it... now I have to go." I said lifting up onto my toes to kiss him. "I love you."
"I love you too babe, now go kick ass," he said with a smirk. I grinned, turned and made my way into the building.
Edward's grading was only over two days, mine was stretched over four days, so today he wanted to do some last minute Christmas shopping. Shopping for something for Edward was almost impossible, mostly because we were always together. I had gotten around this by sneaking off to Alice's and getting things delivered to her place, but what the hell could I get him. I had considered getting his initials tattooed on my inner thigh, but that would just piss him off that I let someone else that close to his pussy. I would call it my pussy but honestly he owned it, and it pretty much did whatever he wanted. So instead I settled for getting him an electric guitar, so I could get mine back. But as an extra treat I had printed off the last love scene from FsoG, bought a feather glove, a flogger and downloaded the Thomas Tallis song. Oh boy was I looking forward to re-enacting that scene. But this was really not the time for thinking about that.
I was taken through to meet Master Laurent Bates, I smiled politely whilst biting my lip and managed not to giggle. The look he gave me was like a cross between disgust and arousal, I wasn't sure whether he wanted to eat me or beat me, I wish I had another Sensei he was creepy. There were only five of us taking advanced gradings this weekend, I was the only female and the others were all taking their 1stdegree gradings, so they would have a much easier time than me.
We were taken through to a private room, and put through some basic warm up routines, before the dreaded hour long torture of taking the riding stance and holding it. The first half an hour as expected was fine, but by forty five minutes my muscles were starting to protest, and I wasn't sure if I had a mild cramp starting in my left calf. But I made it through to the hour, the others were allowed to move and relax, I on the other hand was informed that I had another half an hour to go. My thighs, my knees and my calves were screaming at me, and I was already ready to die and I had the rest of the day to get through yet.
The Masturbator as I had decided to call him after putting me through this, came over squatting down behind me, close behind me, too close for me to stay comfortable. His hand on my upper thigh, almost on my ass!
"That's it... very nice." He said, his face so close I could feel his breath on my neck, it made the hairs on my neck stand up in alarm and I felt sick. My fiancé was the only man allowed to touch me, and I was about to tell him that when he announced that my time was up and I could stand.
I didn't stand, I sat down and ignored him standing over me as I rubbed some life back into my shaking calves. The rest of the morning went in a similar way. The Masturbator would make us all take a stance and hold it, then let the others relax, and getting way too close to me again. By the time we were allowed to leave for lunch I was in serious need of a shower, I needed to wash the sexually repressed ass off me. Touching is a hard limit for me, I thought, which made me smile at my thoughts, a Fifty quote, which made me blush which then caused the other guys from the class to ask what was wrong. I lied obviously.
"So how bad can the next half of this day be?" Kevin, one of the guys from the class asked, he was cute around my age with light brown eyes the colour of his hair.
"For you it's a walk in the park, fighting mostly. I'm getting the Masturbator for a partner, so I'm doomed." I said making the four of them snort and spit coffee over the table.
"If I see him stroke his hand up your thigh again I might just break his nose." Matt added. Matt looked like he was in college, very attractive with dark hair and bright blue eyes. "So, do you have a boyfriend?" He asked smiling at me, to anyone else that smile would make any girl swoon, but next to Edward he was nothing special.
"No, but I do have a fiancé." I said with a smirk, thinking of said fiancé.
"Figures," he said with a pout. "He here in Seattle with you?" Matt asked.
I rolled my eyes and pulled out my cell so I could text Edward. "Yes of course, he's a total caveman, certainly wouldn't let me come to Seattle alone." I said.
"Hey how are you, I am having lunch at the coffee shop opposite the Academy, though I think my muscles have died so not sure if I'll make it back." Ur B. I text Edward.
"So will we see this guy, you know to make sure you're not making him up?" Matt asked.
"Actually, he'll be at the Academy tomorrow, he'll be taking his black." I said smiling. And devouring the sandwich I had just ordered the moment it arrived.
"Damn I'm too far away, I'll never make it back before your lunch is over, and I will definitely be kissing those muscles better for you tonight ;) text me when you finish and I'll come and meet you." Ur E. Edward texted back making me smile even more.
"Okay, will do. Can't wait for you to kiss away my pain. ;) I've really missed you. LOVE YOU! Ur B. I sent.
"I can't wait either, I'm getting hard just thinking about it :D Missing you more. Love you always! Ur E. He replied making me blush.
"That must be the fiancé, just look at that blush." Kevin said. "So what's he say?"
"Nothing you need to know about." I pointed out.
"Going to make all your pain go away is he?" Ben asked speaking up for the first time, and nudging Mark as he spoke.
"Something like that." I said the heat from my face intensifying, I fanned myself with the menu.
"Wow that must have been a really good offer." Kevin said.
"Lucky fucker." Matt mumbled.
"So are you going to tell him about your Masturbator?" Kevin asked.
"What do you mean?" I asked.
"The way he's been all up close and personal with you today." He said.
"I'll tell him, but I might wait until we're away from anything breakable." I said cringing at the thought of Edward's reaction.
"He the violent type?" Matt asked.
"Only when it comes to my safety," I said honestly.
"I've booked us a late meal for tonight, just in our room nothing fancy so don't worry about it. :* Ur E. Edward text.
"U spoil me... I'll love it because it's with you :* Ur B. I replied.
It wasn't long before we had to head back to the academy, I wasn't looking forward to it at all, I ached all over, and despite all the preparation I'd done for this, my poor muscles felt like they were being annihilated. The afternoon was majorly painful, I must be bruised from head to sore toe, some of the attacks I'd had to do continually were beyond belief, when was I ever going to do half an hour of continuous side kicks... I wasn't, not ever. The moment the Masturbator said we were done for the day, I texted Edward.
"Finished... and I think I'm still alive." Ur B.
I started to pack up my kit, when the Masturbator himself came up behind me, right behind me, and put his hand on my hip. I stepped away from him instantly, but he pretended not to notice.
"You did better than I thought you would today." He said.
I removed my mouth guard. "Oh, well thank you?" I said, not really knowing how to answer him.
"You're actually quite reasonable for a girl." He said, making me gasp, I chose to ignore his poorly veiled insult and bit into my cheek, wishing I hadn't removed my mouth guard. All I really wanted to do was use some of Edward's expletives, but I didn't want to fail this course because I couldn't remain courteous with my Sensei. So I nodded and turned back to my bag. "Can I give you a ride back to your hotel?" He asked, sweeping a tendril of my hair that had escaped my ponytail, back behind my ear.
I stepped back away from him, and mercifully Kevin and Matt came up and engaged his attention.
"We'll see you tomorrow Master Bates..." Kevin said with a nod.
"You ready to go Bella?" Matt asked, hooking his arm through mine and leading me away from Master Sleaze.
"Thanks guys." I said once we got outside.
"No problem we could see he was getting too close." Kevin said.
"Hey." I heard Edward's voice behind me and spun around, Matt's arm moving away from me once he spotted Edward, who was a good six inches taller than him.
"Oh god, are you a sight for sore eyes." I said throwing my arms around his neck.
He lifted me up to kiss me and I wrapped my legs around him. "Bad day, huh?" He asked and I nodded into his neck.
"I guess we'll see you tomorrow." Kevin said.
"Oh, sorry guys, this is Edward. Edward these are my fellow parolees, Kevin, Matt, Ben and Mark." I said, they all nodded to each other.
"You take care of her, she's an amazing girl." Kevin said suddenly.
"I know she is... and I fully intend to." Edward replied.
"Okay, I'll see you guys tomorrow." I said, and Edward started to carry me back up the street.
"You don't have to carry me, I can walk you know." I said snuggling into him, inhaling his wonderful scent, feeling like I was already home the moment I was in his arms.
"I'm fully aware of that, but I don't want to put you down, I've missed you." He said nuzzling his face in my hair. "So it looks like you have a new fan club." He said matter-of-factly.
"Oh believe me I'm glad they were there." I said with a deep sigh.
"Why, what happened?" he asked his body stiffening as he spoke.
"Promise me you will stay calm, and I will tell you." I whispered.
Edward stopped in the street and stared down at me. "What the fuck did he do?" he growled, probably already knowing.
"He got a little too up close and personal, a bit handsy, that's all." I whispered.
"The instructor?" He growled. I nodded. "That fucker!" He said and continued walking again.
"He said I was... how did he put it? Actually quite reasonable for a girl, then he offered to give me a ride." I said quietly, "But then the guys interrupted and dragged me away from him." I said.
"Well I'm glad they were there, but fuck... he didn't hurt you did he?" He asked.
"He beat the crap out of me, but that was because he was my opponent for most of the day. Apart from that, he was just being a bit too hands on when showing me what position I should be in. I stepped away when I could, he just made me feel sick, he was very creepy."
"Did you put in a complaint against him?" He asked, I shook my head.
"I can't risk being failed, I think he knows that." I said.
"Fucking asshole! Wait till I see that fucker tomorrow." Edward seethed as he walked into the hotel.
"Edward I don't want any trouble, I've worked too hard for this." I actually sounded like I was whining.
"What so he can go ahead and do it to other girls, or just get more and more familiar with you, what would he have done if he'd given you a ride back here? Would he have forced you to invite him up to your room, Christ Bella, he could have..." he couldn't continue. His arms tightened around me. "I can't even think about him hurting you... I want to kill him." He said, walking us into the elevator.
Once we were back in our suite, Edward carried me straight through to the bathroom, where the bath was full of bubbles, and surrounded by candles. It smelled heavenly and had to be the most welcome sight I could have wished for.
"You did all this for me?" I asked as he slid me down the length of his body.
"I thought you might like it," he said, leaning into my hand as I cupped his cheek.
"I love you so much, you're going to join me?" I asked.
"I was but I'm a bit too worked up at the moment," he said scowling.
"Please, Edward... I need you tonight, please don't think about him, not now, not tonight." I begged.
He closed his eyes, and took a few deep breaths, when he opened them again, I could see that he was back with me. He smiled. "Okay." He said leaning down and kissing my nose. "You seem to be wearing far too many clothes woman," he said tugging at my T-shirt and pulling it off, then reaching behind me to undo my sports bra, and pulled that off. "I hate that thing, it always squashes my girls," he said, cupping MY girls before dropping to his knees and wrapping his tongue around my nipple as he pulled down my sweats and panties.
My legs giving out as he tugged on my nipple with his teeth, he held my hand as I stepped out of my clothes and trainers and into the huge bath. Stripping out of his own clothes in record time, climbing in behind me and pulling me against himself.
"Please promise me that you will do something if he touches you again," he said, his head on my shoulder.
"Okay." I said, knowing it was the right thing to do, but dreading the fallout. "I promise." I said.
"Thank you." He said kissing my neck and sighing contented before he picked up the wash cloth and began washing me.
I could feel his erection growing as he massaged my breasts, I arched my back, pushing them into his hands. He sucked on my neck as one hand moved lower, slowly until he slid his finger around my clit, teasing me.
"Oh Edward." I moaned, lifting myself up, needing him inside me, all of him.
He hissed through clenched teeth, as in one quick thrust he was buried deep inside me. My head leaning back on his shoulder until he moved to licked up my neck, lifting me up and down as he thrust up to meet me. Making me forget the pain, making me forget about the day I'd had, making me forget my own name, as he claimed me as his.
A/N He's not going to let 'The Masturbator' off that easy now is he..?
OK I took liberties with the gradings, I have no clue what happens after black, yet * gulp*
