Alexandra removed her other hand from Julia’s wrists. “Keep them there.” She used her hand to cup Julia’s cheek as her thumb traced Julia’s lips again. “Such a pretty girl you are. I wonder if your mouth is as talented as your fingers are. Tell me, Julia. Is it?”
“I-I… Maybe? Yes.”
“Are you flustered, little one?”
“Fuck,” Julia hissed. “Yes, Miss.”
“Do you want to find out how good your mouth is?”
Julia had lost all ability to speak, so she merely nodded.
“Words, Julia.”
“Please.”
“Good girl.”
Julia could feel how Alexandra’s hand dipped inside her own panties again, and the small circles it made. She ached with desire.
“The thing is, you’re not going to use your mouth.” A guttural moan escaped Alexandra’s throat. “You’re not even going to use your fingers. You’re not even going to touch me.” She trembled against Julia. “Are you wet?”
“Yes, Miss!” Julia cried out. God, to just touch Alexandra. She craved it so much. Didn’t Alexandra know that denying her the thing she wanted most would drive her absolutely insane?
Of course she did.
“Do you want to come, Julia?”
“Please.” Desperate for some release, Julia fantasized for a moment about slipping her own fingers inside her panties, but when Alexandra laughed, she knew it wasn’t going to happen.
“Do you want me to come?”
The way Alexandra wriggled against her body drove her wild and left her unable to speak. She could feel the faint movement of Alexandra’s finger as it brushed against her sweatpants every so often.
“Words, Julia. Do you want to hear me come?”
“Yes, Miss…please.”
Alexandra moaned loudly. “Mhm, that’s a good girl.”
Alexandra’s breathing became more ragged as her moans intensified, and Julia completely lost it. She wanted nothing more than to see Alexandra, to see the faces she made as she came.
“Open your eyes.”
“Fuck.” Alexandra hissed as she rubbed her clit faster and slipped her other thumb inside of Julia’s mouth. “I’ve changed my mind. I want you to use your mouth, specifically, your tongue.”
Julia’s tongue circled the thumb and flicked against it as she sucked it further into her mouth.
“More,” Alexandra demanded. She threw her head back in the throes of an unmistakable orgasm rippling through her and bucked against Julia as she rode out the shock waves pulsating through her body. “Do you see what you do to me, Julia? You make me ache for you. I desire your touch, and I want to touch you.” She removed her hands from her panties and Julia’s mouth, then collapsed onto Julia’s body. Alexandra’s tongue darted out and licked at the bare skin of Julia’s shoulder before pulling it into her mouth.
Julia moaned loudly and cried out when Alexandra’s teeth replaced her lips.
“Alexandra used a hand to support herself. She smiled when Julia looked up at her shyly. “You’re such a good girl, Julia. Tell me what you need.”
“Kiss me.”
“Ask me nicely.”
“Please kiss me, Miss,” Julia said as her eyes glossed over. She ached for her touch, and she wanted release from the throb between her legs, but there was nothing more she desired than to feel Alexandra’s lips on hers. “Please. I need you.”
Alexandra briefly cupped her cheek before nodding, and then she pressed her lips onto Julia’s. Her tongue darted out of her mouth and traced Julia’s lower lip for a moment. Alexandra’s lips parted as she fully captured Julia’s mouth with her own.
The kiss was over as soon as it started, and when Julia keened, Alexandra smiled and rolled off Julia, pulling her into a hug. “You did amazingly well, Julia. I am so proud of you.” She pressed a kiss onto Julia’s forehead as Julia clung to her. “Thank you for my massage.”
“You’re welcome,” Julia shyly said. She had no other words. Her eyes felt heavy as she pressed tighter into Alexandra. Despite the throbbing between her legs and the overwhelming desire to have an orgasm, there was a bigger desire to hold on to Alexandra, to just be in the moment and not have a care in the world.
“Sleep with me,” Alexandra said as she rubbed Julia’s back. “Sleep and dream of me.”
Chapter 11
Alexandra was vaguely aware of the finger that kept poking her in the ribs. It took her a while to wake up enough to remember what had happened not too long ago, and when she did, a smile spread across her face. She had never expected Julia to be as responsive as she was after the massage, but she had been so pleased by the younger woman’s actions. For better or worse, they had entered a whole new ballgame, and while she was unsure of the details of that ballgame, she couldn’t wait to find out how they would progress from here. Another poke in her ribs brought her back to why she’d woken up in the first place.
“Julia, stop poking me,” she murmured with a sleepy voice. She rolled over and opened her eyes to look straight into Julia’s.
“Hi,” Julia whispered.
“Hi, yourself. What’s wrong?”
“You kissed me.”
“I did.”
Julia’s gaze dropped to Alexandra’s lips. “Do it again. That kiss was amazing, but it was too short.”
Alexandra’s eyes closed, and she had to keep herself from laughing when Julia slapped her shoulder and hissed at her to wake up. She peeked through one eye and said, “What time is it?”
“Time to kiss me.” Julia said. She frowned and tilted her head when Alexandra snorted, since that obviously wasn’t at all the response she was looking for. “Pretty please?”
“Oh, that’s cute, but no.” Alexandra wrapped an arm around Julia’s waist and pulled her closer. “You need sleep. Big day tomorrow. And if you decide not to watch, then I still need sleep. Big day tomorrow,” she whispered as her nails made soft, scratching circular motions on Julia’s back beneath her shirt.
Julia’s eyes closed, and she groaned. “You know, you’re kinda naked.”
“I can put on a shirt.”
“No,” Julia quickly said. “It’s almost two a.m.”
“I’m banning you from waking me up in the middle of the night.”
Julia grinned. “I think you like it.”
“Go to sleep.”
“I can’t. You have to stay awake with me,” came the quiet response.
Alexandra frowned. “Why can’t you sleep? Are you okay?”
“Yes. But I need something first.”
“What do you need?”
Julia sighed. “I think you know.”
Even in the dark, she could see that Julia was flustered. “I am blissfully unaware, Julia. If there’s something you want, you’re going to have to ask me for it.”
“Alexandra, please.” Julia buried her head in Alexandra’s shoulder. “Don’t make me say it.”
“Don’t make you say what, Julia? Hmm?” She smiled as she pulled away from Julia and pushed her onto her back. She propped herself up on an elbow, “It’s kind of pretty how the moonlight reflects in your eyes.”
“Seriously?” Julia glared at Alexandra. “The curtains are closed. There is no moonlight. You’re full of it!”
“Did it hurt when you fell from heaven?”
Julia gave Alexandra a light shove. “Stop!” Her eyes closed when Alexandra brushed her hair out of her face, her fingers lingering on Julia’s skin. “Okay, don’t stop that,” she murmured.
“Last chance before I go back to sleep. What do you want, Julia?”
Not a word fell from Julia’s lips. Instead she groaned in frustration.
Alexandra kissed Julia’s cheek, lay back down, and whispered kindly, “Good night, Julia.”
“No,” Julia whined. “That’s not fair.”
“Would you like to come here and snuggle with me?” Alexandra asked as she fake-yawned. She knew exactly what Julia wanted to ask her, but she wasn’t
going to help her. The rules had been clear, and if Julia wanted a result, she was going to have to ask for it.
“No,” Julia said. “That only makes it worse.”
“You sound like a child, Ms. Quinn.”
“I think I’m going to sleep in my own bed tonight,” Julia said casually as she moved to get up. But she moved too slowly for Alexandra to believe it.
“Just so you know,” Alexandra said as she covered herself up with the bedsheets, “if you leave this bed now, I will expect an essay in the morning.”
“What?”
“Please. You think I don’t know why you want to go to your own room? I wasn’t born yesterday. You can go, but I do want that essay when I wake up.”
“Then why do you keep saying you don’t know what I want?”
“Because it turns me on immensely to know that you’re too shy to ask for it.”
“Alexandra?”
“Yes, Julia?”
“I-I really hate you right now.”
Alexandra grinned. “I’m sure you do. Can I go to sleep now, or are you going to ask me for permission?”
“This is so embarrassing,” Julia said. “Why can’t you just say yes if you already know that’s what I’m going to ask for? I gave you a really nice massage, and you had your fun. Why can’t you give me mine?” She rolled over and poked Alexandra in her ribs. “If I ask, you will say yes, right?”
“I might.”
“You might? What’s that supposed to mean?”
Alexandra sighed. “While you’re still being cute now, I’m going to grow tired of this little game very fast, Julia. Especially because it’s the middle of the night, and I really like my sleep.”
“I’m sorry,” Julia said as she rolled onto her back. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. Her answer rambled out in a fast pace, “Ireallywantanorgasm.”
“What the hell was that?”
“Don’t make me repeat it.” Julia gasped as Alexandra swiftly moved on top of her, straddling her.
“I genuinely couldn’t understand what you were saying, dear. Ask me again.”
“Alexandra, please. I really need it.”
“Ask,” Alexandra encouraged.
“C-can I touch myself?”
Alexandra hid her smile. “Good girl, but no.”
“Seriously,” Julia cried out. “I asked!”
“You did, and I’m proud of you. I will reward you with chocolate tomorrow. I never said I would give you approval, though.”
Julia pouted. “You are so mean.”
A moan escaped her lips as Alexandra’s hips ground down on Julia. “That was mean,” Alexandra moved her lips to Julia’s neck, softly nipping at the warm skin. “That’s mean too.”
“Alexandra, please.” Julia breathed out as she arched her back as far as possible with Alexandra on top of her. “I’m so wet.”
Alexandra frowned. She hadn’t expected that. “What?”
Julia’s hips jerked involuntarily. “So wet.”
“Julia?”
“Please, Alexandra.” Julia moved her hand to Alexandra’s shoulder and slowly traced it down to Alexandra’s hand. She grabbed it and moved it underneath her shirt. Alexandra dug her nails into Julia’s skin, and Julia’s breathing hitched. “Please, touch me?”
Alexandra froze. “I—what?”
Julia moved her hand on top of Alexandra’s and then near the waistband of her sweatpants. She looked at Alexandra as if to see whether she would stop her. After Alexandra did nothing, Julia moved both their hands inside of her sweatpants. A moan escaped her throat when Alexandra’s hand cupped her sex over her panties.
“You are wet,” Alexandra whispered as she let her nails trace the fabric of Julia’s panties. Her upper body moved forward as her hand stilled its movement. “Do you want to come, Julia?”
“Yes, Miss,” Julia moaned, and Alexandra almost felt sorry for her when she saw the glimpse of desperation in her eyes.
“Good girl,” Alexandra said as she guided Julia’s hand and slid it inside her panties before removing her own hand. “Slow circles around your clit, Julia. Don’t touch it.” Alexandra’s hand moved to burrow itself in Julia’s hair and grasped it firmly to pull Julia’s head back. “You and I are going to have a talk tomorrow about what it means to top from the bottom.”
“O-okay?”
“That’s tomorrow,” Alexandra said. “Guess what you’re going to do now?”
“I don’t know.” Julia’s finger slowly moved underneath her panties.
“You’re going to beg me for an orgasm, Julia,” Alexandra whispered before biting down on Julia’s earlobe and playing with it with her tongue. “If you come without my permission, you will be in a world of hurt tomorrow,” she hissed. “Rub your clit. Do it slowly but hard.”
“Fuck.” Julia moaned. “Please, Alexandra.”
“Who would have thought you’d be wriggling beneath me, begging for some release, Julia? Faster now. Does it make you wet when I call you a good girl, Julia? Does it make you blush to know that it turns me on when you beg me?”
“Yes, Miss. Please, I’m so close.”
“You’re a good girl, aren’t you? You won’t come without me telling you that you can, will you?”
“No, Miss,” Julia cried out, trembling beneath Alexandra.
Alexandra licked her lips as she looked at Julia. She immensely enjoyed the faces Julia made as she tried so hard not to come without permission. She could feel the wetness pool between her own legs, the throb growing with every moan that Julia let out.
“Alexandra, please, I can’t—”
“Stop,” Alexandra firmly said and smiled when Julia’s eyes glossed over as her hand stopped its movement. “Good girl. Now tell me—what do you want?”
“Please, I want to come,” Julia begged in a ragged voice.
“One finger inside of you,” Alexandra said as she moved her own hand inside of her panties. She moaned loudly as her finger slid through her wet folds.
“Fuck,” Julia breathed out. “That… That’s not fair.”
“You’ll find that I don’t play fair.” Alexandra stroked her clit at a fast pace. “Do you want to taste me, Julia?”
“Yes,” Julia said as she licked her lips.
“Do you want your mouth on me?”
“God, yes.”
Alexandra’s breathing became shallow as she trembled against her. She kept stroking herself at a demanding rhythm. “Do you want to make me come?”
“Please.” Through the fabric, Julia’s finger moved in and out.
“That’ll have to be for some other time.” She almost laughed at Julia’s spontaneous whimper. “Now, rub your clit fast, Julia, and ask me for permission to come.” Alexandra slowed her own hand, smiling at the wet sounds coming from Julia’s movements. She couldn’t wait for the day it would be her hand that would make Julia squirm beneath her.
“Please, Alexandra, can I?”
“Can you what?”
“May I come?”
“Oh.” Alexandra moaned loudly. “Again.”
“Alexandra, please may I come? Please, Alexandra. I—I can’t stop it, and I’m scared I’m going to—”
“Yes.”
Julia cried out, and her hips bucked against Alexandra’s thighs. Her finger slowed its movement against her clit, the touch clearly almost too painful as she tried to catch her breath. “Thank you.”
“Let me taste you,” Alexandra said as she removed her fingers from Julia’s hair. She pulled Julia’s hand from her panties and brought the finger to her mouth, winking at Julia as her fingers rubbed her own clit even faster. Her tongue darted out and slowly licked up Julia’s index finger, glistening with wetness.
“Fuck,” Julia hissed.
Alexandra sucked the finger into her mouth and released it with a pop.
“I can’t wait to have my mouth on you.” Alexandra moaned as her thighs clenched together. She moved Julia’s hand down her chest, between he
r breasts, and down to her stomach. “Do you want to feel how wet I am?”
“Please,” Julia swallowed thickly as her gaze followed the movement of her hand.
“Do you deserve to touch me?”
“Probably not,” she chuckled nervously.
“You’re right. You don’t.” Alexandra grinned before dropping Julia’s hand as she removed her other hand from her panties. “You don’t even deserve to hear me come,” she said when Julia gasped. She leaned forward, her mouth inches from Julia’s. “I’m going to kiss you now and then I’m going to clean myself up in the bathroom. I suggest you do the same before you come back here, and then we will go to sleep. Do you understand?”
Julia nodded as she swallowed. “Yes, Miss.”
“Good girl.” Alexandra pressed her lips onto Julia’s. She smiled against her mouth when Julia’s tongue darted out, eager to find Alexandra’s. She allowed Julia to feel her tongue tracing along her lower lip before she captured them both in a lingering kiss. When Julia moved to deepen it, she smiled and kissed Julia’s cheek instead and then jumped off the bed. She was halfway to the bathroom when she looked over her shoulder. “Oh, Julia?”
“Yeah?”
“You have exactly one hundred and eighty seconds to be back in my bed, teeth brushed and all. If you’re not back in the allotted time, you sleep in your own bed tonight.” She grinned when Julia scrambled off the bed and raced to her own bathroom.
One glance in the mirror told Alexandra exactly how much of a turn-on the whole ordeal had been. Her cheeks were flushed, which was something she hadn’t seen for a very long time on herself, and her hair was messy, but good Lord, she felt so incredible. She counted down in her head as she brushed her teeth, cleaned herself up, and put on a fresh pair of pajamas. Alexandra crawled back into bed just as she’d reached the late teens. She counted down out loud from ten and smirked when Julia came springing into the room when she was down to three. “Cutting it a little close there.”
“My bathroom is on the other side of the house,” Julia panted. “That was mean.”
Alexandra snorted. “It’s down the hall. Don’t be dramatic.” She threw back the covers and motioned for Julia to get in. She relaxed into her pillow and arched a brow when Julia lay perfectly still next to her. “What are you doing?”
