Chapter 42: CALLAN

Pushing her back, I teased the hair back off her face, so I could see into her eyes. “I was reading some stuff online like you told me to, and I saw something that wasn’t in the contract or any of the things you showed me.”

“And what might that be?” I ran my hands up and down the outside of her thighs.

“A safe word; I don’t have one of those.” I took my time before answering her. It was a legitimate question and one that shouldn’t be taken lightly. Though we’d played a lot in the last couple of days, we hadn’t done anything that would make her too uncomfortable. I hadn’t pushed her limits as yet. There would be time enough for that later.

“We don’t need safe words. Love, and trust, they negate the need for them. You will trust me to know your boundaries and to respect them. If your boundaries interfere with my pleasure, my wants, you will love me enough to push them.”
