Chapter 20

Moira

“So what did

you think?” I ask Zach as we get back into the black Range

Rover that Randall loaned us for the length of our stay here. He has

several cars that just sit in a huge, climate-controlled garage

detached from his mansion.

“It was

interesting. But I don’t feel any affinity toward it,”

Zach says as he buckles his seatbelt.

We had just exited

the church I had chosen to take Zach to for a Wednesday evening

worship service. We were both dressed casually in jeans and had eaten

at a pizzeria close by for dinner before it started.

“You sound a

little bit disgruntled,” I observe.

Zach shrugs his

shoulders. “I didn’t know what to expect, but it just

seems foreign to me. I mean… I remember some of what my

parents taught me about Christ, and I listened to Father Gaul’s

teachings, but I just don’t have any real connection to it.”

“It’s

understandable,” I tell him as I reach over to squeeze his hand

before I start the car. “I think faith takes practice and you

really haven’t had that.”

“It’s

just not my type of faith,” he asserts.

As I pull out onto

the highway, I ask him, “What is your faith then? What do you

believe in?”

Zach is quiet for a

moment as he stares out the car window. Finally, he says, “I

believe in myself, and I believe in my tribe.”

My heart sinks a bit

hearing this because those are clearly Zach’s two main

loyalties. Every day that goes by, I fall further under his spell. I

want desperately for him to stay here because I’ve become

fiercely attached to him in the short time we’ve been together.

It’s not just the unbelievable sex, and the sad realization

that when he goes, I’ll never have something so amazing ever

again. It’s because as I’ve gotten to know Zach, I’ve

come to understand the purity of his soul and appreciate the courage

with which he has faced this new life of his. He’s kind,

patient, and curious. His laugh comes easily now, and when those blue

eyes turn my way, whether it’s in lust or levity, I immediately

fall slave to the power he holds over me.

He has thoroughly

possessed me, and he has no clue. He has no idea the power he holds,

and he clearly has no idea that my heart is now involved too. I only

wish it weren’t so, because I have a feeling I’m going to

be destroyed when he goes.

“I believe in

you,” Zach says quietly, and my head snaps over to look at him.

He stares back at

me, his eyes shimmering with intensity. I hold his gaze for only a

moment before I have to turn it back to the road.

“You do?”

I ask, my throat tight with emotion over the prospect that maybe he

finds something else within me other than a willing body.

“I do,”

is all he says, but it’s enough for now.

We make a quick stop

at a local drugstore, as I have to pick up a few things like shampoo,

and Zach needs some more razors to shave his face.

He carries the hand

basket while I take my time walking the hair product and cosmetic

aisles. He’s always patient when we go out shopping, and I

expect it’s because he finds extreme interest in it. Not like

most men who would rather be immersed in a tank full of hungry

sharks. But the concept of having your heart’s desire available

at a whim is something that I’m sure Zach won’t be used

to for a while.

While I check out

the shampoo, Zach busies himself with doing the same, popping the

tops and smelling each one. He hands one over to me, and says, “I

like the way this one smells. Buy it.”

I smile because I

know he’ll never lose that commanding presence with me, but I

indulge him. If he likes it, then that makes me happy.

As we walk up toward

the checkout counter, Zach suddenly stops and grabs something from a

display rack. I turn back to look at him, and my eyes go wide when I

see what’s in his hand. He holds it up for me, and I see a

devious glint in his eyes.

A bottle of lube.

He tosses it in the

basket and simply says, “For when I take your ass.”

Oh my word. Will I

ever get used to the way in which a few simple words, or a look, or

even a brushing touch, will cause my heart to beat like a drum and my

panties to immediately soak with need?

He grins at me, and

I can see he thinks he’s shocked me senseless.

“Where did you

learn about lube?” I ask him, aghast. “And how do you

know it’s needed?”

He brushes past me

but not before leaning in and saying, “I’ve been reading

up on it. I don’t want to hurt you, and I felt firsthand how

tight your ass is. I want to make sure I get you good and ready for

when I possess it.”

I almost go up in

flames… right there… in Aisle Five of the drugstore.

As he walks by me,

my mouth hanging open, I impulsively reach out and grab his wrist. He

turns to look back at me, his head tilted to the side.

“Don’t

ever change,” I tell him urgently.

He steps back in

toward me, and his fingers come up to caress my jaw. “What do

you mean?”

“I mean…

I love how sexy you are and how dirty you talk to me, and I love the

way you push at my senses. Just don’t ever change that.”

Zach’s eyes

grow warm, and his lips curve upward. He leans down, kissing me on my

forehead, and my eyes flutter closed at the tenderness of his touch.

“I couldn’t

change if I wanted to,” he murmurs as he pulls back. “You

make me this way.”

When we get back to

Randall’s house, we find him in the library reading the

newspaper. Zach walks in to talk to him for a bit but after bidding

them both a good night, I head up to my room, carrying our purchases

from the drugstore. The bottle of lube seems to weigh a ton in my

hands, and while I’m wildly excited about Zach wanting to do

this to me, I’m a bit terrified as well.

I decide to take a

shower, hoping to relax the sexual tension that I’m sure is

going to have me exploding the minute Zach walks in to my room

tonight. And I know he’s going to be coming to me.

He has every night,

and it’s been amazing. He’s taken me in so many different

ways and given me so many orgasms that I think I may actually be

addicted to sex with him.

By the time I finish

my shower, dry my hair, and slip into a robe, I walk out into my room

to find Zach casually laying on my bed, completely naked with his

hands tucked in that casual pose he loves behind his head.

“Drop the

robe,” he says, watching me hungrily as I let it slither off my

shoulders and down to the floor.

My eyes flick to the

bottle of lube that I had placed on the bedside table and then back

to Zach again. He grins at me deviously, and then pulls a hand out

from behind his head to crook a finger at me.

I walk slowly to the

bed, my eyes raking over his body. He’s already erect and I

wonder if he had been touching himself before I came out of the

bathroom, or is it merely the thought of being with me that does it

for him? His cock is so beautiful… so large that I can’t

close my hand all the way around it, shaded a dusky rose and with

creamy liquid already pearled around the tip. My mouth waters for

just a taste, but I wait to see what Zach wants me to do.

When I reach the

edge of the bed, he reaches a hand out to me, and I place mine in

his. He tugs at me, urging me to climb onto the mattress.

“You’re

so fucking beautiful,” he growls as his eyes focus on mine. His

words caress over me, causing tingles to break out over my skin. He

makes me feel so beautiful… so alive and free.

Taking me by the

waist, Zach pulls me across his body so I’m straddling his

hips. His cock pushes against my backside, but he remains absolutely

still.

Reaching up, his

hands gently cup my breasts, his eyes focused on his work. He pinches

at my nipples, then smoothes the pad of his thumb around them until

they are stiff and aching.

“Tell me,

Moira… do you like it when I order you to do something?”

The shudder that

runs through my body is answer enough for him, but I admit with a

whisper, “Yes.”

“Don’t

you ever want the control?” he asks as his hands continue to

work at my breasts and his gaze remains focused there. A warm flush

creeps through me.

I swallow to make

sure my voice comes out clearly. “Sometimes. But I’m

finding that it’s a huge turn on when you exert your will over

me.”

“How does it

make you feel?”

“Liberated,”

I answer him immediately. “Rather than feeling constrained, I

feel free.”

He makes a low hum

of approval and raises his eyes to mine. “So if I commanded you

to get on your hands and knees right now, lubed up my cock, you’d

give me your ass with no reservations?”

My entire body

quakes with the thought. Even though a hint of fear courses through

me, I admit to him, “Yes.”

Zach’s hands

release my breasts, and he brings one up to curve around the back of

my neck. “Good girl,” he says and then pulls me down to

his mouth where he kisses me deeply. He tastes like mint toothpaste

and some other sweet spice I can’t place as I give back to him

passionately.

Pulling back on my

hair to disengage our lips, he looks at me with dark eyes. “But

just to let you off the hook, I’m not fucking that sweet ass

tonight.”

A rush of breath

escapes my lips and I can’t tell if I’m disappointed or

relieved, but probably a mixture of both. “You’re not?”

He shakes his head

with a grin. “No, you’re too nervous and I’m

thinking a few drinks beforehand will help loosen you up. Besides…

while I very much love ordering you to submit to me, I think in this

instance… I want you begging for it.”

Oh, God. I’m

ready to beg now I think.

Licking my lips, I

rotate my hips against his erection and ask, “Then what do you

want to do tonight?”

Keeping one hand

firmly gripped behind my neck, his other slides between my legs. He

sinks his middle finger deep into me and uses his thumb to press down

on my clit. My body bucks against the touch, and a groan tears free

of my lips. God, he’s gotten so good at this.

“I think,”

he says thoughtfully as his eyes go down to watch the way his hand is
