Nocere

by Max Ellendale

  "We'll talk about it and let you know," said Sam with an air of finality. She kissed my eyelids when I closed them then asked, "Hungry?"

  I nodded, and peeked up at her. "How about donuts?"

  Sam chuckled and kissed me quickly. "All the donuts you want."

  "I could go for a donut. Or cake." Nora bat her lashes at Caroline who chuckled.

  "I see where this is going," she said, hopping up after releasing Nora. "I'll fetch the donuts."

  We watched her go, and quiet fell while we listened to the crackling fire. Nora scooted closer to us and leaned her arm on our chair before resting her head on it. Like second nature, Sam pet her hair at the same time that she ran her fingers through mine. A thoughtful expression cooled her features and she kissed my forehead.

  "Does she feel different to you?" asked Nora, her eyes on Sam.

  "Very." Sam nuzzled my cheek with hers. "Unexpected."

  "Best kind."

  Caroline returned a moment later with a plate full of sweets and Alex bounced along behind her, her eyes bright.

  "Rosie," she called in a silly sing-song. I sat up in Samirah's lap and smoothed down my skirt to my knees. Sam sorted my hair then held me around the middle.

  "What's going on?" I asked her, plucking a chocolate donut off the plate when Caroline offered it. Nora chose a glazed one and smiled at her when she bit into it.

  "Do you have your keys?" Alex leaned over the back of the chair and grinned at me.

  "Um...yes. Why?"

  "Can I borrow them? I left mine home."

  I narrowed my eyes at her. "Who are you taking home? Not Frankie, is it?"

  "No." Alex swatted my arm and Samirah tensed under me.

  "Then who?" I glanced over her shoulder toward the closed door to see a pretty brunette lingering there, her eager eyes trained on Alex.

  "Sara." Alex made to shove my shoulder, but Sam caught her wrist. "Hey."

  "Gently, please," said Sam. Alex's expression cooled and when Sam released her, she rubbed my arm instead.

  "Can I borrow them, please?"

  "Yes." I stuck my hand in the pocket of my skirt and pulled out my keys. "Change the sheets."

  Alex snatched them and snickered. "I will. Thanks." She bounded off without a second thought and tugged Sara back through the house.

  "There are a lot of horny lesbians here tonight," commented Caroline around a bite of a brownie. "Seems like we're in the right place."

  "Seems so." Sam continued to dote on me with soft touches and caresses while the flames of the fire reflected in her eyes. "I'd like to head home soon, Rosie. Is that okay with you?"

  "Yes." I offered her a bite of donut and she accepted it. "Good thing we're not walking."

  "Why?" asked Nora.

  "I confiscated her panties." Samirah laughed and I hugged her around the neck, kissing her all over her cheeks.

  A wry smile melted over Caroline's face as she watched us. "I'll text you later, Sami."

  "Fine. C'mon, baby." Sam urged me to stand, half lifting me until I set my feet on the ground. I made sure to fix my skirt before waving to them.

  Sam took my hand then we headed back inside.

  After brief goodbyes and gratitudes, Sam and I headed back to her place. Before she even closed the front door, she grabbed me into a heated kiss. I stood on my tiptoes, cupping her face in my palms while stroking her cheeks with my thumbs.

  "What's bothering you, baby?" I asked, noting how the spark in her eyes dimmed over the past hour.

  "I wanted to be alone with you," she said, her hands on my waist. "Do you mind if I have a quick shower?"

  "I don't." I paused, then tapped her bottom lip. "We can take a bath together if you like, in your fancy jacuzzi tub."

  A smile parted her lips as if the thought never crossed her mind. "Would you like that?"

  "I would." I nodded and bit my bottom lip. "Very much."

  "Come on, my sweet." Sam took my hand, and led me to the master bathroom attached to her bedroom. Marble tile filled the vast space, and I couldn’t help smiling at the nature of it.

  "You bought this condo just for this bathroom, right?" My voice echoed when I spoke and I pointed to the jacuzzi tub beside the stand-up shower. Sam turned on the faucets and the tub began to fill and bubble right away.

  "You know it, baby girl." She grinned with pride over the luxurious surroundings. "The rest of this place is lovely for what it is, but no other unit had a bathroom like this."

  "How deep is the tub?"

  "It'll be to our chest when we sit," she said, then pulled a lighter from the drawer by the double sinks.

  On all four corners of the tub, trays of white candles squared off the setup and she began lighting each of them. My heart pounded in my chest as excitement built. Everything with Sam seemed new and adventurous, even if it was just a bath.

  "What scents do you like? Lavender? Vanilla?"

  "Lavender is nice," I said, then watched as she added a few drops to the water after finishing up the candles. "You've made this very romantic."

  "I was hoping so." Sam turned off the bright lights and allowed only the candles to illuminate the bathroom. She held her hand to me, and I scurried over to grab hold of it while hopping up on the first step to the tub.

  Without saying anything, I urged her shirt over her head and she allowed me to for once. She let it fall away before guiding me out of my sweater and blouse. We took turns like this, until I was left standing naked, and she wore only a pair of black panties. She hesitated, only briefly, before tugging them down her hips. In all our times together, this was the first she allowed herself to be fully unclothed with me. I ran my knuckle around her belly button, nudging her piercing as well.

  "You're beautiful, Samirah. So beautiful." I met her gaze and she drew in a deep breath. She didn't say anything, though her eyes shimmered in the candlelight. Instead of her leading, this time I took her hand and guided her into the tub.

  We took careful steps into the hot, aromatic water, and right away, the heat of it wrapped around us in a liquid hug. Sam settled first, leaning back against the wall of the tub and the water rose just above her breasts. I sat across from her, with the water to my neck, and our legs tangled straightaway. She caressed my calves, all the way down to my feet. I mirrored her gesture, and pulled her feet against my stomach to rub them. She smiled and wiggled her toes against me. I let out an unintentional giggle when she tickled me.

  "Hey." I grinned at her and she chuckled.

  "That was a cute laugh. Do it again." She tickled me with her toes and I squeaked before snickering again.

  "Silly." I gave her toe a gentle twist and she chuckled.

  "I've never shared a tub with anyone and I'm glad my first experience is with you," she said, then held her hands to me. "C'mere, fairy."

  I rolled forward and floated my way to her. She grabbed my waist and drifted me onto her lap. With the added height, my breasts poked out of the water and the cool air hardened my nipples.

  "We have to talk about what Caroline said," she began, lacing her fingers with mine.

  "Is that what's bothering you for real?"

  She nodded, and tugged me closer until my belly met hers. "About doing a scene."

  "Did she mean it when she said you don't keep your girls?" I gnawed the inside of my cheek after I asked the question that burned inside of me for a few hours now.

  "She meant it, yes. My relationship with Caroline and Nora has always been in the context of BDSM, Rosie. Scenes with women—those are not relationships. I might've had favorites over the years, but they didn't belong to me. We weren't in a relationship."

  "But we are…" I tilted my head and she nodded, her gaze never leaving mine.

  "I don't want to bring you into that lifestyle and risk losing you. Or share you. Or anything like that. I meant it when I said I was territorial and monogamous. I couldn't bear it."

  "I'm okay not getting involved with that, Samirah. I don't know anything about
it. And I'm very happy that you're monogamous and territorial. I like being yours…" I held her hands to my chest. "And I like that you're mine. Is BDSM important to you?"

  "I'm not sure… Sex is important to me." She brushed her lips over mine. "Sex with you is."

  "Sex has been very one-sided so far. I'm not complaining at all, but I would like to enjoy it with you, to make you feel good, too," I confessed, leaning my chin down and nipping her knuckles.

  "For the first time in a long time, I want to share that with you. I want to share a lot of things with you. How have we only known each other a month?" She sighed softly and dropped her head back on the tub. "How can I feel like this so fast?"

  "You're asking me? I feel the same way." I chuckled then scooted forward to kiss her neck. My pelvis rolled against hers and she lifted her hips as our flesh collided, then bit her bottom lip. I started when something firm poked my folds, and gazed down between us. "What was that?"

  "Hmm?" Sam looked at me with glazed-over eyes.

  "Something hard." I reached between us and brushed my fingers over her mons.

  "Oh." A wry grin curved her maroon-hued lips. She rolled her hips again and I felt the same thing. "You found the remaining piercing."

  "Really?" My eyes widened and I ran the knuckle of my index finger over her clit. The circular piercing, with two round balls on either side, made itself known. Sam's breathing kicked up and she continued smiling at me.

  "Yes. What do you think of that?"

  "I think you're very naughty and that you, too, like being exposed and naked." I flicked her pierced nipples at the same time. "Tease."

  "Me? A tease?" She gasped, clutching her chest in feigned shock. "When have I ever teased you? Was it not an hour ago that I made you come so hard that you gushed your sweet nectar in public?"

  "Samirah!" I laughed and lurched forward, bracing myself on the tub beside her shoulders. The water moved with me, creating a small wave. "You're teasing me now."

  "But it's so fun." She laughed and grabbed my ass in a firm squeeze. "You’re a shy little fairy until you get turned up about something then boom, explosions all over the place."

  "Totally alternative facts," I muttered against her lips before kissing them. She continued to grip my rear, her fingers brushing against my pussy from behind. I reached between us and ran my fingers over her clit. Her piercing rolled with my movements and she ended the kiss to nibble my bottom lip. "That okay?"

  She nodded and continued to nip at me while stroking me from behind. I leaned down and flicked my tongue over her nipples, one after the other, when her body arched enough to expose them above the water. Although her breath quickened, and her nails dug into me, she stayed quiet while I allowed myself to enjoy the feel of her for the first time. I rolled her bare, smooth folds between my fingers and she shivered. She leaned down to steal me back into a kiss, releasing my ass to pinch my chin between her fingers. Even in the water, slipperiness seeped from her and I picked up the pace on her clit. My heart pounded with excitement, and my pussy throbbed. Allowing me to touch her brought more joy than I expected.

  Sam's legs writhed under me and she ended our kiss to suck in a shaky breath. She closed her eyes, her mouth dropped open, and she leaned her head back when she came. Pleasure melted across her beautiful face, tightening her features and turning her into a picturesque sight. I wanted to frame her, paint her, and stare at her forever.

  My movements slowed to gentle circles, but Sam continued to come, her body twitching, her legs quaking until she finally let out her breath. Her hands shot to her hair and she melted down the side of the tub when she relaxed. She met my gaze with half-lidded eyes glazed with lust and release. A smile parted my lips when I withdrew from her, and kissed her softly. She met me in slow, passionate movements, cupping my face for a moment until we parted. I leaned over her, tracing the curve of her jaw, and the sharp structure of her cheeks.

  "Beautiful," I whispered and she smiled.

  Chapter Ten

  I woke up with a gasp, moaning as a deep, lusty orgasm tore me in two. Before I could make sense of the morning light streaming into the bedroom, Samirah made her presence known by sucking my clit at the break of day.

  "My God." I groaned, my hands falling to her hair as her tongue lashed at me, spearing me deeply as I came a second time against her hungry mouth. "Sam."

  "Morning, honey," she said, her voice a husky croon. She licked every inch of me, before crawling up my body to suck my nipples. My shaking hands touched her anywhere they could, until she lay down on top of me, resting her chin on my chest. Her smile, sweet yet guilty, made me laugh.

  "What was that?" I moaned as shocks of pleasure still fired here and there.

  "Waking you up with orgasms. Didn't I mention it's one of my specialties?"

  "I thought anesthesiology was your specialty." My breathing slowed down and she laughed.

  "Quite the opposite in my bedroom life." She took my nipple between her teeth and gave me the gentlest nip ever. I sucked in my breath and she snickered.

  "Sit on me. Let me taste you." I moaned as I wriggled under her attention, my toes digging into her thighs.

  "Is that what you want, Rosie?" Her teeth nearly chattered and I nodded.

  "Yes. Let me?" I reached for her and she glanced toward the window as if considering it. I stroked her cheek and she looked back at me. "Only if you want to. Safe words count here, too."

  "I want to." A grin melted across her lips. "Will you let me spank you?"

  My stomach fluttered and I gnawed at my bottom lip as I pondered her proposition. "Yes."

  "You're a kinky little bottom, aren't you?" She nipped at my breasts before crawling over me to straddle my stomach. I palmed her breasts, and gave her piercings a gentle twist. Her stomach jumped and her hot, soaked core against my skin told me I'd done something right.

  "I think you've turned me into one." I gripped her hips and shifted downward. She propped one foot on the bed, pressed her fingers against her mons, then angled her clit toward my mouth.

  I flicked my tongue over her once. "Anything you don't like?"

  "Don't bite me, naughty." She grunted before tracing her exposed clit over my lips. "I come fast."

  "I noticed. But long and deliciously." My entire body quaked at her erotic gesture and I kept lapping at her every time she allowed me to. "Your little ring keeps your clit entertained."

  "Confession," she said, panting heavily as her sweet nectar coated my lips. "When I fucked you in the kitchen, I came three times and you never noticed."

  Before I could respond, she closed the gap between us and allowed me to take her. I wrapped my arms around her thighs and devoured her like I'd ached to do for ages. Moans left me, muffled by her ripe folds.

  "Fuck." A soft groan escaped her and she grabbed onto the headboard as she rocked against my face. I couldn't stop the pace my mouth demanded. I never wanted someone so much in my life. Her whole body shook as she came, flooding me with sweetness while I lapped at her from back to front, ending with several lashes over her clit. Her back arched, face contorted, and I held her in the deep, raging orgasm as long as I could.

  Sweat beaded her brow, and she dropped her head on her arm as her bent leg trembled almost violently. She came for what seemed like a full minute until she shook too hard to hold herself up. I caught her when she returned to sitting on me, and pulled her into a hug.

  "My God, Sam." I kissed her all over her face and she hid against my neck. I cupped the back of her head and she raked her nails up my side. I sucked in my breath and shuddered from the sensation.

  In time, she relaxed and we lay together with our cores pressed against each other's thighs. I rocked against her leg and she smiled when she leaned up on her elbow, her index finger pressed against my lips. I opened my mouth and sucked her finger before returning her smile. She chuckled and propped her head on her hand.

  "Three times, huh?" I asked, reflecting back on her confession.

 
"I come every time I go down on you. Now you know my secret."

  "You're very quiet about it."

  "It's my secret Domme power. The more pleasure I inflict on you, the more I feel in return."

  "I think BDSM is important to you, Sam." I tucked her hair behind her ear. "We can make love. We can fuck. And we can do scenes. You can teach me things. We can do all of that. It's not one or the other."

  She grew quiet for a moment and a thoughtful expression tumbled over her features. "It helped me heal and feel better about myself."

  "Sex helped me, too. It still does. This past month with you has been the best of my life."

  "Same, baby." She leaned down to kiss my forehead. "How about this...we accept the invitation to scene with Caroline and Nora, but we just watch. So you can see what it's like before you agree to more."

  "I've never watched anyone have sex…"

  "It's like watching porn. Trust me. It will feel less personal once you're there."

  "I trust you. There will be rules and stuff?"

  "Yes. First rule, no one touches you but me. How's that?" She tucked my hair behind my ear and I stroked the soft flesh between her breasts.

  "I like that rule. Okay." I smiled up at her and she winked at me.

  A loud buzzing sound broke our conversation and I started, gripping my chest until Sam reached over to snatch her phone off the bedside table.

  "Just the phone, my sweet." She looked at the screen and frowned. "It's work."

  "It's okay." I nodded and she swiped to answer the call.

  "Hello?" Sam's narrowed brow made me chuckle softly. Her reaction seemed pretty dramatic, as if her job purposefully interrupted our sex. I could hear the man on the other line because the phone was so close to me.

  "Doctor Flynn, we need you down here. We've got large scale emergencies coming in and not enough hands on deck," he said.

  Sam let out a soft sigh, her gaze on me as she frowned. "E.T.A.?"

  "Fifteen minutes. Can you make it in?"

  "I'll be right there." She hung up the phone and dropped her head down on my chest. "I'm sorry."
