Chapter 8
Cage
Cage rolled his eyes and smiled as he watched on. Katie was obviously trying to work out what the surprise was.
It was so cute.
Cage almost felt tempted to leave Katie hanging.
Not reveal the surprise.
There was something intoxicating about holding that power. In fact, it wasn’t a million miles away from one of Cage’s biggest kinks.
Cage enjoyed nothing more than orgasm control and denial.
But right in that moment, Cage knew that even he couldn’t possibly keep Katie waiting for a second longer.
‘ Pleeeeease tell me! Katie said, almost squealing with delight. ‘You can’t say you’ve got a surprise and then hold out. That’s a real stinky-pants move!’
‘Hmm, I wouldn’t normally accept such sass, but I’ll let it slide,’ Cage said, tutting. ‘Okay. You want the surprise?’
‘Yes! Yes! Yes!’
‘Well here it is,’ Cage said, taking a piece of paper out from his kitchen drawer and placing it down on the table in front of Katie. ‘Surprise!’
Cage laughed at Katie’s shocked response.
It wasn’t so much shock though.
More like a muted disbelief.
‘My surprise is a boring piece of paper?’ Katie asked. ‘Is this a rental agreement or something?’
‘ Ha ! Rental agreement,’ Cage said, his voice echoing off the walls. ‘Do I look like a realtor?’
Katie shook her head.
‘Well, have a read then,’ Cage said. ‘Then tell me if you think it’s boring.’
Within seconds, the look on Katie’s face had totally changed.
This very much was not a boring rental agreement.
It was a BDSM contract.
‘Would this mean I was your Little?’ Katie asked, her voice a mixture of excited adrenalin and trepidation.
‘We’ll see,’ Cage said. ‘I think this is the only way to go if we want to explore our options. See what kind of future we could have together. Don’t you?’
Katie nodded before quickly burying her head in the contract again.
‘So many options, so many… kinks,’ Katie stammered, clearly excited by what she was reading.
Damn, this is great.
I don’t know who’s more excited. Me or Katie…
Cage strode over to the table and sat down next to Katie.
The pair of them began to go through the contract together.
They talked about hard and soft limits.
What they would and wouldn’t be prepared to do.
This was less stressful than Cage had imagined. Katie was pretty comfortable talking about sexual matters. Probably because of her cam work.
Cage found himself able to be open and relaxed too.
There was something infectious about Katie’s enthusiasm.
It was rare that people had this type of effect on Cage. Ever since his police partner died, he had found relaxation incredibly difficult. Loosening up around other people just hadn’t been on the agenda.
How could it have been?
If Cage wasn’t able to relax in his own company, then it really was never going to be an option with other people.
But with Katie it was different.
Very different.
‘Okay, we need a safeword,’ Cage said. ‘I don’t know what you think, but for me it’s essential.’
‘Definitely, and I’ve got the perfect word,’ Katie said, smiling. ‘Juicebox.’
‘Juicebox?’ Cage asked, raising an eyebrow. ‘Okay, I’m sure you have your reasons. Juicebox it is.’
Katie laughed and leant into Cage.
The feeling of Katie nestling into his body made Cage’s senses fire up. It was electric.
In that moment, Cage wanted nothing more than to devour every inch of Katie.
Play with her.
Tease her.
Have his way with her.
But Cage knew he had to keep his cool.
They still needed to discuss things further.
‘I think we should talk about, you know, kinks,’ Cage said, taking the heat out of the situation by gently but firmly lifting Katie into an upright sitting position. ‘You go first.’
Katie blushed a little.
Then giggled.
‘Don’t make me spank it out of you,’ Cage said, a playful but firm tone to his voice. ‘Come on… kinks. Talk.’
‘I really like…’
‘Spit it out! Remember, I could always get my paddle!’
‘Well I love the thought of being tied up,’ Katie said, immediately bursting into a fit of giggles. ‘Like, extreme bondage. Being tied up and left for a while. That kind of thing.’
‘Interesting,’ Cage said, purring with delight, his Daddy Dom senses almost spinning out of control. ‘We can certainly work with that.’
‘But it has to be safe,’ Katie added. ‘I guess I’ve got trust issues. You know, after my last Daddy.’
‘That’s very understandable,’ Cage said, knowing that helping Katie to trust again was going to be his big challenge. ‘Don’t worry. I’m going to make it my mission to have you feeling as safe as possible.’
Katie was practically glowing.
It felt good for Cage to see him have this kind of effect on someone.
Especially a Little like Katie.
For so long, Cage had felt himself to be way too cynical and dysfunctional for a Little. Years of grinding out the casework and investigating some brutal crimes had worn away his ability to communicate and show his softer side.
Plus of course the tragedy with his ex-partner.
But being with Katie was different somehow.
‘Your turn!’ Katie squealed, breaking Cage out of his daydream.
‘My turn?’
‘Yes, silly! Your turn to tell me your kinks!’ Katie laughed, playfully nudging her elbow into Cage’s rock-solid stomach. ‘I told you mine, now you tell me yours. That’s how it works!’
Cage took a moment to compose himself.
It all sounded fine in his head but now the time had come for him to talk about his own kinks he felt himself clam up a little bit.
But he knew he had to talk.
That was part of the deal.
And Cage wasn’t a man to back down from a deal.
It just wasn’t his style.
He had too much honor for that.
‘I’ll count you in on three,’ Katie said, a slight hint of mischief in her voice. ‘Three… two… one… go!’
‘Okay, okay, I’ll talk,’ Cage said. ‘I’m into orgasm control. Orgasm denial too. Basically, I get to control and be in charge of when my partner cums. So…’
Katie was blushing.
Cage figured this was a positive sign.
It was certainly better than had Katie stood up and run out of the apartment at a hundred miles per hour.
‘I like the sound of it,’ Katie said, finally speaking. ‘It could be really hot.’
‘There’s one catch to all this,’ Cage said, his firm tone of voice back in full effect. ‘No more camming. It’s a deal breaker for me.’
‘Oh,’ Katie replied, looking a little bit stunned at Cage’s demand. ‘I, um…’
Cage felt his heart sink.
It wasn’t the response he had hoped for.
In truth, Cage had no idea how Katie would respond. He hadn’t really thought it through that much, it was just something that had come to him.
‘It’s okay, I understand,’ Cage said. ‘I can’t share you with anyone. Not even via online activities. It’s not compatible with who I am. If it’s a problem for you, I get it. No worries. I would understand. Maybe we’re just not meant to be.’
Cage’s words trailed off.
He felt glum.
But at least he’d been honest and laid out exactly how he felt from the start.
This would minimize the damage in the longer run.
That was something at least.
Then, almost to Cage’s total disbelief, Katie leant over toward him again.
Except this time, she wasn’t coming in for a snuggle.
Katie moved in for a kiss.
The feeling of Katie’s soft, large lips on Cage’s stubbly beard made Cage’s pupils dilate. It was like all his senses were connected and feeling the kind of natural high that was very rare.
Certainly, in Cage’s life up to that point.
Cage felt a desire to strip Katie naked right that second and have his way with her. From the way that Katie’s hands were moving over Cage’s lap, Cage felt sure that Katie would be into it.
Probably in a major way.
But, again, Cage’s sensible side just about regained control.
They hadn’t signed the contract yet.
‘I love the fact you want me to stop camming,’ Katie said. ‘It’s nice to be wanted so much. In such a wholesome, caring way too. Not everything is about sex. Even though that’s a whole lot of naughty fun!’
‘Indeed,’ Cage said, his erect cock ragingly hard inside his pants.
‘I’m glad you’re willing to give camming up,’ Cage said. ‘It’s no way for you to make a living. Especially as you don’t enjoy it either. But speaking of money...’
‘It’s cool, I’ll find another way to earn a living,’ Katie said, sounding full of optimism. ‘It’s a big city, and I’m sure I can turn my hand to anything if I really try. I might even find something that has a connection to the theatre. Try and get in at entry level.’
‘That’s my girl,’ Cage said, proud to see Katie taking the initiative and showing good resilience. ‘Just because you’re a Little, it doesn’t mean you can’t take control of situations that affect you.’
‘Yes, Daddy,’ Katie said, taking on Cage’s words. ‘Giving up the camming is an easy decision to be honest. It’s not only about the money though. I just want to be yours. That’s if you’ll have me?’
Cage felt a surge of pride.
This felt right.
It felt natural to him in a way that a relationship should.
In that moment, the pair of them went for the pen to sign the contract at the same time.
‘You first, Daddy!’ Katie said.
‘No, a true Daddy always thinks of his Little first,’ Cage said. ‘You go first. And that’s an order!’
Katie giggled, her cheeks burning red from excitement as she signed the contract.
Cage took the pen from Katie’s delicate hand and signed his space on the contract too.
It was official.
The real fun was about to begin.
