Finally, I pulled out of her, switched the vibe off, and laid down next to her. I gently released her wrist cuffs from the chain and finally gave into my urges. I wrapped my arms around her slender body and squeezed her as tight as I could. She laughed along with me, hugging me back.

We laid embraced in each other's arms, feeling closer and more equal than ever before in our relationship.

“So? What did you think?” I asked her with a big grin.

“That was... It was...” She stared at the ceiling for a long moment before continuing. “I liked it more than I thought, to be honest. I was nervous to give up control, but I just focused on how much I trusted you, and it all turned out alright.”

I hugged her right again, our sweaty bodies pressed close.

“I'm so glad, Laurie. Isn't it so special? Just letting yourself go and giving yourself over like that?”

“Fuck, when you stuck that dirty dildo in my mouth? It was... exhilarating. I felt so helpless, not even being able to breathe without you allowing it. I felt truly submissive. But at the same time, I felt the strength to endure because I knew it'd make you happy. Is that weird?”

“No, that's what it's all about!” I chuckled. “That's how I feel for you. That's how I endure everything you do to me. It makes such a special bond. What do you think now that you've had both sides?”

“I think I get it more, now. I can better imagine how my moves would feel for the sub. It's given me some ideas, actually...” She smirked and kissed my forehead.

“Oh jeez,” I rolled my eyes with a smile back at her. She stroked my tangled hair and kissed me deeply.

“Oh, by the way,” she blushed. “It turns out I really like being called a good girl. Can you do that more?”

“Absolutely, Princess,” I stroked her cheek, still stained black from her makeup.

We rose together to take a shower and I made us both a cup of warm herbal tea that we drank together curled up on the couch. We shared her favorite blanket, warm and soft. I guess I was staring, because she turned to me with a smile and questioning look.

“Hey Laurie?”

“Yeah?”

“I love you.”

She wrapped me up in her long arms and squeezed me like her life depended on it.

“I love you too, Ava.”
