Iris kept her expression placid as she turned her head to look at Owen.
âDo what?â Owenâs tone was hesitant, because either he didnât know what she meant or he knew exactly what she meant and was afraid to believe it.
Iris pushed herself up onto her elbows and looked over at him. He was gorgeous lying there on the bed, so spread out and open, and she could easily see herself giving him what he wanted and getting something out of it for herself. âI donât mind being dominant in bed. As long as we can keep things low key, no strings attached and all that, Iâm happy to play that role for you.â
It was hard not to notice the way Owenâs eyes lit up with eagerness and excitement. His voice remained calm when he spoke, but she could tell he was trying to sound more casual than he felt. âYouâd do that? Youâd be interested?â He licked his lips. âIâm not interested in a pity fuck, though. Iâve done that and it was no good for anyone.â
âNo, Iâd never give someone a pity fuck.â She wouldnât sleep with someone unless she wanted to. âIâm into this. Iâve never done anything like it before, but Iâm smart. I could learn. You could teach me what you want, and I could give it to you.â The more she talked, the better it sounded. She flashed back to that feeling of power sheâd had as sheâd sat astride him, directing his pleasure as well as her own, and shivered involuntarily at how much sheâd really, really liked it. And wanted more of it.
Owen looked wary. âI havenât told you the really kinky stuff yet.â
Iris considered. She couldnât think of anything she wouldnât try, but maybe she just didnât know enough to find out what she wouldnât try. âI guess Iâd just tell you what I wasnât into if we got there.â
âAnd whatâs in it for you?â Owenâs disbelief continued to grow, as if he couldnât imagine why someone would want to sleep with his hot self. He pushed up to a sitting position.
Iris tried not to laugh. He was serious, so she had to be. âIâm sure Iâm going to get some pretty awesome orgasms out of the deal and not have to exhaust my own hands. That seems like a good enough deal for me. Plus, I could use a little excitement.â She sat up as well, so they were facing each other on the bed.
Owen tapped his lips in thought. âIâd love to explore, but I donât have a schedule thatâs really conducive to any late-night play.â
âIâm free after five on weekdays, and Iâm free most weekends.â Iris considered the overlap in their schedules. âWe can just play it by ear. No long-term plans.â
âI like that.â Owen nodded. âWeâll take each session one at a time.â
Iris was starting to get into the idea. âSo where can I learn about this stuff? I want to do it right. I assume there are ways to do this wrong.â
âIâm not much more experienced than you are, but Iâve got a sense of what Iâm into, and I can send you some websites and books. Read up, find out whether this is something that actually interests you, and weâll have a conversation to discuss limits and interests.â Paradoxically, he became quite take-charge when discussing the means by which he was going to submit. Iris couldnât really understand that disparity. This wasnât a weak man. This man was confident, sexy, self-assured. The idea of making him submit to her was becoming more and more intriguing.
âThat sounds good.â Iris considered her own feelings. âIâm excited about this.â She sounded surprised, and that was because she actually was surprised. She hadnât expected the emotional upswing. âI havenât done anything new in a while. This is probably the least boring thing Iâve done
