Chapter thirty-five

Unforgettable

Josh

“It’s your birthday,“ he says. “Why am I the one getting a surprise?”

I adjust Karma’s blindfold before opening the door to our hotel suite.

Wow. It looks like Sigh-Moan has gone overboard again. I’ve never stayed anywhere this fancy before—the bed alone looks bigger than my entire room back on campus. Once I add a few finishing touches, it’ll be perfect.

“You asked what I wanted for my birthday,” I say while I lead him through the lavish bedroom to the luxurious en suite bath. “And I want to surprise you. Please let me.”

Karma gives my hand a squeeze as he follows me blindly. “OK, but we’re still on for tomorrow, right? I can hardly wait to give you your present.”

“I can’t wait, either—but first, let’s enjoy tonight.” I pull out my phone and open a playlist. Soft music fills the bathroom as I dim the lights. “I hope you’ll let me pamper you. I’ve been looking forward to this for days.”

It may be too soon to say those three little words to Karma, but I can show him how I feel.

“I’ll give you anything, Moonbeam,” he whispers. The cloth mask that blocks his sight shows just how much he’s willing to surrender. “I’ve thought about it long and hard, and I’m ready to give you every part of me.”

“I want every part of you,” I whisper back. “You mean everything to me.”

A tear slips from beneath Karma’s blindfold and rolls down his cheek.

I brush it away with my lips. “Shhh, My Prince. Tonight is a celebration. Let’s start your pampering with a nice, warm bath.” I step over to the porcelain pedestal tub and turn its champagne-colored faucet. After checking the water’s temperature, I add some cedarwood bath oil to it. While the freestanding bathtub fills with hot scented water and steam adds a warm mist to the air, I slowly undress my boyfriend.

Karma raises his arms above his head as I pull off his shirt, then waits silently while I unbutton his pants and slide them down his legs. Once I slip off his shoes and socks, I pull off his underwear, leaving him naked except for the mask covering his light green eyes.

I guide him to the tub and he climbs in with my help, sighing as he sinks into the warm water. After dipping a washcloth into the bath, I glide it across his firm chest. “You’re so beautiful,” I tell him. And he is. His tall form with its lean muscles, his tattooed arms and golden skin, the wavy blond hair that frames his handsome face—I love everything about him.

“Shouldn’t I be pampering you on your birthday, instead of the other way around?“ Karma worries. “I feel kinda guilty, to be honest.”

I glide the washcloth across the flat plane of his stomach and down between his legs. As I wash the most private part of his body, I say, “You don’t understand how erotic this is for me. It turns me on more than you could possibly know. Your trust is the best gift in the entire world.” I kiss his neck while I wash his body, my lips traveling down to his tattooed shoulder.

“Did you just kiss my favorite tree?” he asks. Below the blindfold, a smile tugs the corners of his mouth.

I brush a kiss across the tattoo again. “Someday, I hope to see it in person. Will you take me to your farm and show me your tree?”

Karma’s smile falters. His throat bobs as he nods his head.

“And will you show me the tide pools at your favorite beach?” I press my lips against the tattoo on his elbow.

“I-I will,” he says, his chin wobbling.

Gliding the washcloth across his other arm, I tell him, “I hope I can be there when this tattoo sleeve is finished. Will you let me choose one of your stars?”

“Yes,” he chokes. “Anything for you.”

“That’s good.” I kiss his mouth. “I want you to enjoy the bath for another few minutes. I’ll be right back, OK?”

Karma wipes a hand across his nose and nods.

I rise to my feet and walk from the bathroom, quietly shutting the door. It’s time to add the final touches to the hotel’s bedroom. Simon had dropped off our overnight bags, as well as my gifts from JR and Ruby. After scattering rose petals across the soft sheets of the plush four-poster bed, I attach gauzy white ribbons to each of the bedposts. Next, I light the small candles and place them throughout the room. Once I dim the room’s lamps, I put on my new lingerie—plus another special gift. My surprise is complete, and it’s perfect.

“Would you like another few minutes?” I stick my head into the bathroom and whisper. “Or are you ready to get out?”

My boyfriend gives a sensual stretch before sitting up in the tub. “I’m ready, Moonbeam. Thank you. That was so relaxing.”

“I love pampering you,” I say as I help him out of the bath. The soft, fluffy towels the hotel provides feel sensuous in my hands. I run one over Karma’s body, drying every crease and corner of his skin.

“That feels amazing,” he murmurs. “This is my favorite birthday ever.”

“Mine, too.” I smile as I stand up, taking his hand and leading him into the bedroom. Once I position him next to the bed, I say, “It’s time to take off your blindfold.”

Karma reaches up and pulls off the mask, slowly opening his eyes. As they adjust to the soft candlelight, they widen in surprise. Gasping, he gazes around the opulent suite before turning to stare at me. “Oh my god.”

Just the reaction I was hoping for.

Spinning in a slow circle, I give him a view of me from every angle. Somehow, the lingerie that Ruby picked out for me looks both innocent and wicked at the same time. White fishnet stockings adorn my legs to mid-thigh, with cute little bows sewn onto their bands. Straps attach the stockings to a white beaded corset that laces up the back, ending in another bow just above my bare ass cheeks. I’ve foregone the panties this evening—that scrap of lace will only get in our way.

I strike a pose, one hand on my hip and the other holding onto a bedpost. “Do I meet your approval, My Prince? You deserve nothing but the best.”

Karma gapes at me. “You’re stunning.”

I feel stunning. Who would believe that a few short months ago, I thought no man would ever want me? I know better now. I am sexy… desirable… worthy of love—not only because of the way that I look, but because of who I am.

Reaching for his hand, I guide him to the head of the bed. The deep red of the rose petals are a striking contrast to the soft white bedding, and the dark mahogany of the bedposts make the ribbons attached to them look even more delicate.

He climbs onto the sheets and lies down face-up, then stretches his arms and legs toward the four corners of the mattress. “I’m ready for you, Moonbeam,” he says.

My eyes travel down his naked body, then back up to his eyes. “Safeword?” I ask, fingering the gauzy ribbon next to his hand.

Karma silently shakes his head.

I kiss the lotus blossom on the inside of his wrist before tying the ribbon loosely around it. Once I’ve tied him to all four corners, I wait for him to test his restraints.

He never moves a muscle.

“You’re so good to me,” I praise him as I climb onto the bed and straddle his torso. “I’m going to make tonight extra special for you—something you’ll never forget.”

“I could never forget you, Moonbeam. I never will,” Karma vows.

“You’ll be with me forever,” I promise him, then press my lips against his heart. “No matter how far apart we may be, I’ll always have a piece of you with me.”

Karma swallows thickly. “I need to tell you something, Josh. I love—“

“Shhh.” I place a finger on his mouth. “Show me how you feel.”

He raises his head as I lower mine, our lips connecting in a heated kiss. I stretch my body across the top of his, my hands tangling in his hair while our mouths move in slow motion. Every brush of our lips, each caress of our tongues… they say what no words can.

My mouth wanders to his ear and then down to his throat, my teeth nipping at his sensitive skin. “Will you let me mark you?” I ask.

“Do whatever you want to me.” He arches his neck. “I’m yours in every way.”

I sink my teeth into his throat and suck, pinching his nipples while I rub our cocks together. He moans, his body arching off the bed—trying to get closer to my touch. When a light bruise appears next to his collarbone, I give it a gentle kiss. “This mark may not last, but my feelings for you always will.”

“Mark every part of me, Moonbeam,” he says. “Show me how you feel.”

So I do.

I lick a path to his nipples, teasing them with my tongue and teeth. I trail my lips across his trembling stomach, blowing softly on his tender skin. I bite his jutting hip bone, then nudge my nose into the crease of his leg. My teeth sink into the flesh next to his balls, and I suck a deep red mark into it.

Karma writhes beneath me. “Oh god, Josh— yes .”

When I slip my fingers between the cheeks of his ass and press one against his hole, his breath catches. He lets out a strangled gasp when my other hand presses against his red mark. “Too much?” I whisper.

When he groans and spreads his legs, it’s music to my ears.

Wrapping my lips around the head of his cock, I slide them down to its base. When his hard flesh hits the back of my throat, I swallow around his shaft. As I bob up and down, savoring his salty taste, I push my finger against his hole until the tip slips inside.

“ Fuck ,“ Karma moans. “More. Please .”

I push it in deeper, pumping my finger in and out of his channel while I slide my lips up and down his cock.

“ Yes . Fuck me,“ he pleads, then gasps when I add a twisting motion. “Yeah, like that. Get me ready for you. I want you to take me, Moonbeam.”

Releasing him from my mouth, I say, “I want that, too, My Prince. I can’t wait to know what you feel like.” I pull my finger out of his ass and reach inside the bodice of my corset for a condom. As I rip it open, I ask, “Are you sure you don’t want to use your safeword?”

Karma presses his lips together and spreads his legs even further.

Thank god. I’ll burst if I don’t have him soon.

My online research showed me the best way to prepare for this evening—that, and a few tips from Ruby. I may be a virgin, but no one can say I’m not a good student. Pinching the end of the condom, I place it on the tip of Karma’s erection and roll it down his length.

“Wait, what?” He looks down at his cock, then up into my eyes. “But I thought you were going to fuck me.”

“I am,” I say as I slather him with lube. Reaching behind me, I pull out the ‘special gift’ I’m wearing—a plug to loosen me up—before smearing more lube along my crease. “Tonight, I want to top you this way. Is that OK with you, My Prince?”

Karma blinks, his green eyes wide with surprise. “You can have me any way that you want.”

“There are so many ways that I want you, it’ll take years to explore them all.” Crawling onto my hands and knees, I brush our lips together. “Right now, I want to feel you deep inside me. I want to ride your cock. I want to grind my ass against you until we both come.”

He gazes up at me from the rose-covered sheets, his limbs stretched wide in each direction. “Then take me, Moonbeam. Fuck me any way you please.”

I reach behind me and guide his cock toward my hole, teasing it along my sensitive flesh. Bearing down, I hold his shaft steady while I push myself onto his dick. When the tip slips inside me, I gasp—he’s bigger than the toy I’d prepared myself with. As I pause to catch my breath, I give his shaft a stroke. “Next time, I want you to ride my cock just like this. Will you let me take you that way?”

“Every way, in every position, for the rest of our lives,” Karma groans. “Please, Moonbeam—I can’t wait anymore. I need you to fuck me now.”

Holding my breath, I sit up while pushing down, and his cock slips another inch inside me. I rock my hips, my hands braced against his shoulders as I pulse up and down. Inch by inch, his steel-hard length slides further into my body until—at last—he’s all the way inside me. I pause again to adjust to his size before starting to grind against him.

“Oh god, you feel amazing,” my boyfriend moans.

I throw my head back, grinding harder. “You’re so nice and thick. You feel so good inside me.” My hips pump faster, my body bouncing as I slide up and down his shaft.

Karma’s hips drive upward, his balls slapping against my ass with every thrust. His breathing is ragged, his muscles stretched tight as he reaches toward the four corners of the bed. The ribbons do nothing to hold his limbs in place. They’re kept spread by the sheer force of his will.

He feels incredible—better than any toy I’ve ever played with. I lean back further, gasping when the head of his dick brushes against my prostate. “Yes, right there.” I pump my hips faster, taking every inch of his cock.

“Come on me, Moonbeam,” he groans. “I want to see you shoot onto my stomach.”

I steady my hands against his thighs, leaning back further and grinding harder. His dick brushes my prostate with every thrust of my hips. Like a lit match on a trail of gunpowder, heat races along my nerve endings, setting me on fire from the inside out. I need more. More . I bounce up and down faster and faster.

“Take me, Josh. Fuck me.” Karma grits his teeth as he struggles to keep from coming. “God, I love you so much.”

”I … I… “ I burst into flames. My head explodes as cum bursts from my cock. My toes curl, my core muscles squeezing around his shaft as a firestorm of pleasure consumes me.

Karma thrusts upward, groaning loudly as he writhes beneath me. Together, we ride a wave of pure ecstasy. When I finally open my eyes, his head is thrown back, a look of indescribable bliss on his face.

As he gasps for air, I kiss his lips, his cheeks, his jawline… until, at last, his eyelids flutter open.

Gazing up at me, he whispers, “I meant what I said. I love you, Josh Malik.”

I whisper back, “I know. I love you, too, Karma Wilson.”
