Too long a wait (Mina) - Mina's Home and Studio

He moved her wrists and his own arms down to around his neck.

"Hello. I sm not that marvelous, I failed at your game."

Her hands rested on the back of his neck.

"Amor, you lasted longer than I ever thought you would. And that game is not about failure. Not when you breaking brings us both such pleasure."

She continued to nuzzle him, almost purring.

He sighed and held her.

"You are too kind. I have never played that game. You have seen what I generally do. You on the other hand are magnificent."

He kissed the top of her head and held her happily.

She wrapped herself around him, not wanting to let go.

"I will gladly allow you to be in charge, if one of us must be."

She was warm against him, her heart going. This was a night filled with pleasure, and she wasn't quite exhausted yet.

He didnt see mto mind her holding him. In fact it felt good.

"Hmm, I prefer the give and take we have been doing. For every time I dominate you, you have been dominating me. You are very very good at it."

It had been an intense night already. He wasnt to rest for a little though and talk with her. There was much to talk about.

"My childhood put me in a place where gangs and walkers were common, but I never learned the games. I never had regulr girlfriends, only one night stands. Thank you for showing me this game."

She smiled and leaned back to watch him.

"You are very welcome. And I have enjoyed our time tonight. Especially learning more of you. Tell me more."

He smiled and looked into her face.

"Is there anything is particular you are curious about? I am suddenly feeling like sharing.. with you."

Her fingers began to trace lines across his back, tracing the muscles.

"How much of you was a jaguar before you could become one?"

He smiled.

"I don't know. Iwas always a bit of a loner, wild, stealthy and dangerous. True I was a bit of a city boy, but that is what i knew."

She stroked his face lightly.

"So you have always been a cat. This makes sense to me. I do not see you as anything else."

He found himself moving into her hand.

"Thank you I think. I tend to control dogs, not be one. I find it funny that we both have animal shapes, and your just tends to be the prey of one of mine."

She chuckled.

"Si, amante. Si. And yet, I am not fearful of you."

He smiled at her and caught her hand, kissing it.

"I noticed. I am glad. i do not want you afraid of me."

his eyes turned serious and he closed them, kissing her hand again. Somehow she knew the serious look wasnt sexual. something was bothering him. Some thing he was hiding.

She curled her fingers around his hand.

"Amor, what is wrong?"

Her voice was laced with concern.

He sighed.

"Things are not as rosy at home as I might have implied. My sister threatened my life."

Her grip on him tightened and she began to growl.

"Why?"

He paused and was quiet for several minutes before finally letting one word out.

"You."

Her grip loosened with shock. She couldn't speak for minute.

"Me?"

He held onto that hand as it loosened.

"The fact that I tasted your blood. She is sure you are out to get her and I am now completely under your power. She no longer trusts me. She has threatened my life."

Her eyes closed and she turned her face away.

"Then you should leave and never return."

He looked at her.

"Why, so I can not be with either of you? She has stated that the next time she sees me she will kill me. She may forgive me someday, she may trust me someday. I stood by the side and watched hidden for 3 weeks without a single kind word or the touch of soft hand. I needed you. I am sorry I did not tell you everything."

Tears were leaking from her eyes.

"I never meant to cause you pain, my love. And I will not forsake you. But she is your true mate, and if you leave me, perhaps she will forgive you faster."

He kissed her eyes, kissed her tears.

"You did not do this. I did this to myself. You did not force me to drink. And She is being a paranoid bitch. i didnt realize how insane she was. I.. still love her and will make an effort to calm her.. but it could take.. a very long time."

he looked into those leaking eyes now.

"And you are important to me."

She looked into his eyes and nodded.

"Then you may truly stay as long as you wish. I will not make you leave. I can survive a week or so without needing anything but you."

He smiled and shook his head.

"Thank you. Thank you much. But I will not cause you hardships. i plan to spend as much time as i can with you tonight, and iwll return soon, but my responsibility is to protect my sister and watch after her. I will take care of my responsibility. No matter what."
