A little later, Valerie, Eric, Jason and Elena show up to visit. The latter looks gorgeous with a new hair color and a floral dress. Christian is so happy to see her.
We set the tables and celebrate the housewarming. I'm not mad at Jay and Eric, because they themselves are forced people who carried out Fred's orders. Besides, they are my friends and have saved my life more than once.
Valerie talks excitedly about Japan and Tokyo. I see how her eyes shine when she talks about her hobby.
We are planning a large-scale Naruto cosplay event. It's a pity we don't have Jeriah. Ana, guys, come join us. Mia could easily play Kanahamaru's friend. You are Tsunade, Christian and Elliot are Naruto and Sasuke. I will trust Lewis with Orochimaru, and I myself will be Sakura. Let s relax and get positive emotions, Val smiles. - In two Saturdays.
Mom, Mia looks at me pleadingly. - Will we agree to Valerie s proposal?
Yes, I smile. Cosplay brings people together.
- Hooray! - Mia shouts. You can perform a play in Eden. We were just instructed to stage a play on a free theme by October. Let's stage the adventures of Naruto.
Her smile is the most wonderful magic in the world...
Valerie's Pov.
After a three-hour feast, we disperse, and I warmly say goodbye to my brother, Ana and her children. They are wonderful... They have so much positivity and warmth. And Miss Lincoln seems like real sunshine to me. I quickly find a common language with them.
I m standing at the checkout counter at the supermarket and buying cat food and cutlets. My head is still clear and warm from meeting my brother. But the disgruntled African-American cashier rudely tells me that I am a few shillings short of paying for my purchases. In a panic, I search my pockets for money, but there is none. Crap
Take mine, I hear a low chest voice and turn my head. Next to me is a tall, handsome, gray-haired gentleman of about 60 years old. For some reason I blush and silently take two shillings.
After that, like a girl, I run away, grabbing my purchases. What a guy he is... very similar to his brother in terms of charisma and authority. Amazing man...
Okay, Paige, inhale, exhale. You're not nineteen to lose your head over men. I shake my head, throwing off the stranger s spell, and I succeed.
When I get home, I check my email and text the guys from my cosplay group, letting them know that we have a lot of work ahead of us. I have long dreamed of collaborating with Eden, but alas, the position of a history teacher is taken. Well, let's collaborate creatively.
Anastasia's Pov
Three days have passed since the move. I am enjoying the forced idleness, the children are studying and their grades are excellent. They work tirelessly, especially Christian. I feel like he wants to prove to everyone in Eden that he can control his anger and his demons won't stop him from becoming the top of his class.
Everything is fine with Lewis. He loves me, and I love him. We literally bathe in each other's love and every now and then we tell our secrets and secrets to each other.
One rainy October day, I'm sitting and checking Mia's homework, when suddenly my husband comes into my daughter's room, looking gloomier than a cloud. I immediately understand that he has problems at work and leave Mia s room.
- Hello. I kiss him and look into his eyes. - What's happened?
Aw... One of my girls caught pneumonia and won t be able to participate in the BDSM show I m throwing on Sunday, Prothero sighs. I m looking for a replacement for her without success.
From Lewis s murdered appearance, I understand that this is important to him. I hug him and smile conspiratorially.
- Listen, what if I replace her? - I ask innocently.
Lewis's eyes widen. He's clearly in shock. Shocked Lewis... This is incredible.
-Ana, are you sure? You... you don t have experience in this, and I won t let an inexperienced bottom on stage, Lewis sighs.
- But I have BDSM experience. At spy school, I became close friends with one guy, and he was a fan of all this leather and braid paraphernalia. He took me into the lower classes and taught me everything, I smile.
- And why aren t you with him? The jealousy in Lewis s voice is literally boiling.
He wanted more, but I didn t. Spies must be loners, I remembered this from the experience of my parents. I only wanted more with you, I whisper. Prothero calms down and kisses me.
I know, he purrs and leads me to the sofa. A moment - and I lie under him and laugh.
- So what? Will you take me on the show? - I m interested.
I ll think about it, my husband whispers and kisses me. You are a very brave woman, Ana. However, I will be a real dominant.
I knew it. But I also knew that Lewis is part of the family, and he helps us in every way he can. It was my turn to help him. He is so involved in the children's lives and mine, so why shouldn't I step into his Darkness? This is damn not Larkhill, but a light BDSM show for rich people.
Besides, I'm tired of controlling everything in my life. Giving control to Lewis is my way of relieving stress.
to school and we sit opposite each other and look into each other's eyes.
- Steele, you are impossible... Okay, I'll take you on the show. But you must obey me unquestioningly, Prothero mutters, taking a sip of coffee.
I nod and smile at him. We eat in silence, and afterwards I surf the Internet reading articles about BDSM. Towards evening I write to the children that we will not be home in the evening and that I have prepared dinner. So that they wouldn t get bored, I invited Valerie to sit with them. The children adore her, and she adore them.
At 18:45 Lewis comes to see me.
- Are you ready? - he asks. I nod at him mischievously and stand up. We dress in silence and go to Sova.
You need a pseudonym in the BDSM party. Something that will reflect your essence. For example, I am the king of Larkhill, and you... - Lewis looks at me, driving the car at the same time.
Princess of Thorns, I purr. This was my pseudonym in the BDSM party in America.
Great combination, Lewis says. - I hope everything goes smoothly.
I smile at him encouragingly and stroke his hair.
- Isn t it tight? Elena asks, lacing up my corset.
Everything is fine, I say softly.
As it turned out, Elena was assigned not only to Escala, but also became a stylist at Sova. Double salary and a clean business allowed the girl to lead a comfortable life. I'm incredibly happy for her, but at the same time I'm afraid of Christian's reaction to the news about her work here.
After putting on the corset, Lena fusses over my hair and makeup. It turns out depraved and at the same time very elegant. In the style of Nicole Kidman in the movie Moulin Rouge.
You are gorgeous, Miss Steele, Elena whispers. - Real princess.
I grin. Princess of Thorns - this is exactly how the BDSM world of the USA knew me. A proud sub with high expectations of dominants. As a result, I never found my one and only there. I only managed to find it here...
- How are you doing? Lewis is visiting us. I turn my head in his direction and freeze. Damn, he's wearing a black military uniform. The same one he wore in Larkhill. He's very...damn! Wow...he's hot in her.
Oh, I m out of here, says Elena and quickly runs away.
Lewis looks at me with admiration and, coming closer, kisses me on the lips. I kiss him back and feel heat all over my body. As if he had read my thoughts, he grabs me under the hips and sits me on the dressing table. I pull him closer and quickly put my hands under his uniform.
What a brave Princess of Thorns, the man purrs and releases my breasts from the corset. A moment - and he moves my panties to the side. I confidently unbutton his pants and allow him to enter me.
I look at us in the mirror. I am depraved and wild, he is formal and reserved. This spurs me on and I ride it fast and furious.
Little wife, you turn out to be a cheeky little thing, Prothero purrs, kissing my neck. - I didn t notice this...
- It's all a corset. I flutter my eyelashes flirtatiously and respond to his caresses. Oh, how good it is to be with him...
I am the first to reach orgasm and fall exhausted on the table by the mirror. Lewis growls and cums on my thigh. Then he quickly wipes away the seed and cleans me up.
I just came in for a kiss, and you... he smiles. - Lena, come in for a minute...
What are you doing, I spent half an hour making her up and doing her hair for the same amount of time, Lincoln grumbles, entering. - Okay, but I demand a day off tomorrow.
But... Lewis begins.
And a room at the Escala, Lincoln breathes.
