Odalisque (15 page)

*** *** ***

Moments after Ms. Dresden took her leave, Kai appeared in the door of Constance’s odella wearing nothing but a smile. He led her into the saray, to the iron bed in the center. Constance was sure she was about to be thoroughly fucked.

But Kai proved to have other plans, and Constance wasn’t happy about them. He regarded her now over the top of his tablet computer.

“I remember quite clearly Bastien telling me that bondage was essential to an odalisque’s fulfillment. Deepening your feelings of slavery and all that. I am one hundred percent certain he talked to me about it.”

Constance whined in misery, arching her hips toward him. She was leaning back, her shoulders propped against a cushion on the wide white mattress. Her wrists were cuffed to straps around her upper thighs so she couldn’t touch herself. Her ankles were tethered with rope to each corner of the footboard, spread wide. He’d given her just enough slack to fidget and try to draw her legs together to soothe the ache.

But the ache could not be soothed.

Kai lounged across from her, the picture of masculine perfection, his cock cycling between hard and half hard, resting against the fur of his lower belly. He was long, lean male, tormenting her like some demon with the nearness of his physicality. Every so often he leaned forward to play with her pussy lips and run the lightest teasing fingertip over her clit. He’d make some flippant comment like, “Yep, still wet,” or “Wow, you look pretty horny,” before returning his attention to his computer screen. As he read, he’d run his fingers lazily over his abs, then down to rearrange his cock.

Oh God, he was killing her. This was abuse, plain and simple. Where was Ms. Dresden now that Constance needed her? Helplessly, she shifted her hips forward even more and begged with her eyes. Begged for a touch, a fuck. An orgasm.
Please...

He looked up at her and got a thoughtful gleam in his eye. “You know, this won’t do at all. I’ve given you absolutely no means to communicate with me. That’s not safe, is it? Maybe I should release your hands.”

She nodded frantically.
Yes, yes. Pleeeease!

“Oh, but...wait. That would kind of defeat the purpose of the whole bondage and enslavement thing. Hmm.”

Kai rolled off the bed and went in the other room. He was gone a few minutes while she furiously tried to free her hands and pull her legs together. Oh God, her throbbing clit. Damn him. She gave up and lay back against the pillows. He was right. This was submission. Enslavement. She was his sex toy to use, if and when he decided to use her. She was his slave to frustrate, to deny, to whip into a frenzy of desperate need.

Kai was back again, raking his eyes over her quivering form in approval. “Oh, yeah. That’s a nice view. Bastien really knew what he was talking about with the bondage. Now, here.” He held up two sheets of paper, each with a message. One said,
Oh, please, please, I’m dying!
The other said,
I hate you so much right now!

He put one down by her left foot and one down by her right foot. She immediately started grinding her ankle into the
I hate you
one.

“Ah, you’re sweet,” he said, laughing.

She laughed too, she couldn’t help it. This was all hilariously funny, or would have been if she wasn’t about to jump out of her skin with the need to be fucked. He leaned down to kiss her as she kicked helplessly at the other sign.
Please, please!

Kai stood and crossed to his cabinet full of BDSM gear. She watched with dread as he took a shiny stainless steel anal toy out of its fuchsia-lined box. He dripped some lube on it.
Please don’t let it be the jacked up stuff
, she prayed to herself in silence.
Please.

She felt a whimper rise in her throat as he crossed back to her. “This should make things a little more interesting for you.”

He knelt on the bed and for a moment she scooted her butt back, clenching her cheeks.
No, no, no!
She could say the words and he wouldn’t do it. But she was here to serve and obey him, not her own needs. She rested her head back against the cushion and tried to relax as he worked the silver bulb into her asshole.

Oh, shit. The jacked up lube.
Damn it.

She squirmed as the burning, itching sensation grew inside her. Clenching her ass only made the sting worse. The plug wasn’t huge, but it was heavy and solid within her, stretching her anal channel. She gave him a desperate look that she hoped communicated the depth of her suffering. For good measure, she kicked the
I hate you
sign again. That was probably a mistake, since he went back to the cabinet and came back with a pair of clover clamps on a chain. Kicking the sign a few more times did not dissuade him.

He pinched and tugged at one nipple, closing the wicked pincers over the thrusting tip. As the sharp pain bloomed across her nipples and chest, she came off the bed, arching her hips as far as she was able. She loved the agony of the clamps, but she hated it too. As he applied the second one, she cried out with all the frustrated lust she was feeling. God knew what she sounded like, but Kai must have liked it, because he grabbed his cock in response.

He was fully hard now, his reddening rod thrusting up toward his belly. She wanted him so badly. The stinging ache and stretch in her ass had her pussy soaked and her clit swollen with the need for release. The clamps added that extra layer of inescapable pain that made her crave his touch, his rough possession.

He gazed back at her. “I know you want my cock inside you. I know you want to feel me splitting you open, rubbing against that little toy in your ass.” Her pussy flared even hotter, pulsing instinctively at his coarse words. “But for a moment I just want to watch you like this. I want to watch you wanting me. Needing my cock.” He paused, then leaned closer, running soft fingertips down the side of her face. “You have no idea what this feels like. Watching you crave me so hard.”

She held his gaze.
Crave
wasn’t even a strong enough word for what she felt. Her heel crinkled the
please, please
sign, but it was all pointless now. He was in complete control of her, a lesson he’d surely intended to impart with this little torture session. She felt her body unwind as she came to terms with her powerlessness. She subdued the insistent needs of her body to his will.

His gaze softened as they communicated without words, without signs. The bed shifted as he leaned closer. She clenched on the ass plug in anticipation, only to be rewarded with another wave of torment.
Relax, relax...

He licked up her belly, dropping warm kisses around her navel and beneath her breasts. He ran his tongue along the sturdy metal chain that connected the clamps, and then drew it between his teeth. She cringed at the pain of the clamps tightening, and pulled at the cuffs that held her wrists. She wanted so badly to touch him, to pull him against her. He leaned to kiss her mouth, and in doing so, pressed the cool metal chain between her teeth.

She did as she knew he wished, and held it tight in her mouth when he moved away. Her chest strained at the tugging discomfort, and the worst part was that she had to give that pain to herself. He watched her struggle for a while, calmly stroking her breasts and the curves of her hips. She stared into his light-dark eyes and felt lost for a moment.
I’ll die if you don’t take me. I really will.

The silly signs he’d written had been pushed aside by now. There was no hate or pleading, just desire and need. He reached down and slipped a finger into her pussy. “Look at me,” he said. “I’ll tell you when you’re allowed to come.”

Her eyes went wide. When she was
allowed
to come? Jesus Christ, as soon as the head of his cock breached her, she was going to go off like a fucking rocket. She shook her head at him. He shook his head back at her.

“Concentrate. Pull on this if you’re coming too close too quickly.”

He pulled the chain from between her teeth, causing the clamps to tighten suddenly. “Focus on this pain, not what you feel between your legs.” He replaced the chain and traced a finger about her trembling mouth. “Be a good girl.”

She bit down on the smooth metal links. She felt like crying as he positioned his cock at the entrance of her cleft. She would never survive this. She felt him begin to enter her and yanked hard on the clamps, sending a sharp ache down her body. It didn’t completely erase the pleasure of him filling her, but it dulled it enough to keep her from immediately orgasming. Oh, why,
why?

But she knew why. This was all about control. The first day she’d arrived they’d been like newlyweds, fucking mindlessly, however they liked. She got the feeling those days were over. It was probably for the best. He was supposed to be the one in control, the one being pleasured. It would be within his rights not to let her come at all if that heightened his sexual satisfaction. She wanted to be a good odalisque. She wanted to fulfill her owner.

She chanted those words in her mind as she pulled the chain even tighter, chanted those words each time she hovered on the brink, driven there by his thick cock filling her and yes, rubbing against the plug in her ass. He was fucking her in a languid, slow rhythm, his own body tense and shuddering. She watched his abs bunch and relax as he moved over her and withdrew again, and again, the depth and power of his thrusts never wavering. She looked up at his lips every few seconds. She didn’t want to miss it when he finally gave her permission.

Then, his thrusts came faster. His knees spread hers on the bed so her ankles pulled at the rope bindings. Oh God. She jerked her head back, yanking on the clamps, but even then the pain was too much intertwined with pleasure. She felt his hand in her hair. Her eyes came open even though she didn’t remember closing them. Somehow, through the haze of lust and desperation, she read the wonderful words on his lips.

“Come with me.”

His thrusts were practically lifting her from the bed. The ache in her ass was replaced by something headier, a knowledge that she was filled to the hilt with the plug and Kai’s pounding cock. With each stroke, he pressed down against her clit, and she shivered from the powerful tingling suffusing her entire pelvis and breasts. She was a sexual creature, tied down, held down, and bursting with the feeling of being thoroughly used by her Master.

His hand slid from her hair and caught the chain in her mouth. He pulled it down against her belly as he arched over her, twisting his hips. Constance cried out and felt her whole body transported to a place where all that existed was screaming pleasure turning her inside out. Her pussy contracted around the thick length of his cock as he bucked against her.

She looked up to find his mouth thrown open in ecstasy, his entire face transformed and softened by pleasure.
Oh, please, please, I’m dying
, she thought.

What she really needed was a sign that said,
I love you so much right now.

By the end of the second week Kai had everything set up. Flashing fire alarms, vibrating and flashing smart phones. Two, in case she misplaced one somewhere. His odalisque watched all this with a serene detachment, lounging nude on her bed, or following him around like a sex-starved puppy.

Okay, maybe the sex-starved-puppy thing went both ways.

After subsisting on the world’s best blowjobs for the duration of her period, they were back to fucking like zealots. Kai would fuck her all evening, sleep the sleep of the dead, and go to work and think about fucking her all day.

It was like a new world, and only he and Constance lived there. Kai watched everyone else schlep around, whine and complain bitterly about the single life, or irritating husbands and wives. It was all he could do to hide his self-satisfied smile. He had an odalisque. His life was sex-drenched and sweet.

Kai loved the delicious mystery and privilege of it so much that he waited almost three months before he let Mason in on the secret. He knew his friend would be pissed that he hadn’t told him sooner. He also knew Mason would want to come over and play.

They’d shared women before, when they were younger men, and Kai had an open invitation to hook up with Jessamine any time. He hadn’t, only because at first he’d been married to Veronica, and afterward, he’d felt too emasculated to even look at a siren like her. Now, compared to Constance, Jess wasn’t such a turn on.

Jessamine was a sexy piece of female, but she was no odalisque.

Kai invited Mason to lunch in his company’s dining room. His female employees always appreciated when he did that. Kai knew Jessamine wouldn’t come with her husband, since she was currently filming a movie in Toronto. Mason showed up looking rough, with the start of a beard and bloodshot eyes.

“Taken to drinking in the afternoons, my friend?” Kai eyed him suspiciously. Mason usually lived pretty straight.

“Aw, no,” Mason said, rubbing his face and leaning on the table between them. “Just a bad night. Sleepless night. Way too much shit going on.”

“What kind of shit?”

Mason waved a hand. “The usual. Scripts to read, meetings to go to. Jessamine carrying on.”

“I thought she was out of town?”

“She is. She still carries on. I worry about that woman sometimes. But what’s up with you? You look a little smug, you bastard.”

Kai shrugged, pretended nonchalance. “Yeah, I’ve been sleeping better than I’ve slept in a year.”

Mason grinned. “You met a girl? You seeing someone? You look damn happy about it. Who is she?”

“I found her in France.”

It only took Mason a few seconds to connect the dots. “Holy fucking hell!” His friend’s eyes practically popped out of his head. “Holy fucking hell!” he repeated. “You did not seriously go over there and buy one!”

“Well, it’s more of a rental situation, but yeah. Her name is Constance.”

Mason sat and gaped. His eyes darkened then, and narrowed in reproach.

“Why the hell did you not tell me? Why didn’t you ask me to go over there with you?”
