Page 20 of Bondage Play

Terry made a small choking sound and Phil petted his head again, wondering if the inferred sharing had his sub worried somehow.

Gerard continued, “And of course, I also have soda, juice,sparkling and regular water.” Gerard chuckled. “And espresso if you need a late-night jolt of energy.”

Phil chuckled back. “No, that’s the last thing we need. My boy has to be on the set early in the morning. The sparkling water would be wonderful for both of us, though. Thank you.”

“Two sparkling waters for Master Phil and his boy, and you can bring my Pepsi as well as whatever you’d like. No caffeine either, however.”

“Yes, Master.”

Gerard’s gaze followed Marco’s ass as the sub wiggled from the room. Phil imagined Gerard probably did that quite a bit.

Gerard returned his attention to Phil, sinking into the couch cushions, crossing his ankles and draping one arm across the back of the sofa. “That damn Pepsi is one of my few vices.” Gerard glanced briefly in the direction of the kitchen before regarding Phil again. “That boy’s delectable backside is another.”

Phil grinned. “I’m sure you can be forgiven for that.”

Gerard arched an eyebrow. “The Pepsi or Marco’s ass?”

Phil barked out a laugh. “I’m not sure about the Pepsi, but your boy’s, uh, delectablefeature, most certainly.” Gerard definitely came across as someone who’d make good friend material.

Terry let out a mumbled “hmmph”, and Phil loudly cleared his throat.

“Sorry, Sir.” Terry’s response was only slightly less mumbled.

Gerard grinned, giving a jerk of his head in Terry’s direction. “Someone’s feeling territorial.” He nodded, his eyes locked with Phil’s again. “That’s a good thing.”

Phil wrapped his hand around Terry’s cheek, encouraging his head closer until it rested against Phil’s thigh. “It’s mutual, so he should know he has absolutely nothing to worry about.”

Marco returned with their drinks, and Phil gave Terry a sip of water before setting it down to take one of his own. Gerard’s action with Marco almost mirrored his exactly. It appeared that Marco’s serving duties were done for the time being, because he’d also dropped to the floor into a kneeling position next to Gerard.

Gerard relaxed again. “Perhaps on another night, we can get together more informally. Eric’s given you rave reviews, and I haven’t found another Dom who I’ve wanted to share a scene with in a while. I’m very protective of my boy, and there are only a few Doms who I would trust around him.”

Phil’s stomach tightened and Terry tensed beneath his hand. “I’d love to get together with you socially, Eric’s reviews of you and the gatherings you hold here have been rather effusive as well. However…” The last thing Phil wanted to do was insult Gerard, but he and Terry had very specific boundaries regarding others touching him or sharing. “I don’t share Terry. It’s one of his hard limits, but truthfully, I wholeheartedly agreed to it.”

“Oh! I’m sorry. Perhaps I wasn’t clear.” Gerard leaned forward. “Let me explain. The fact that you are both so territorial of each other is what made me bring the idea up. I don’t share Marco either, at least not physically. We enjoy some exhibitionism, voyeurism on occasion, but there are many Doms who only want to participate if they can watch their sub with Marco, or trade subs. Those are hard limits for us as well.”

Phil tilted his head, still confused. “So…the scene you’re doing with the doorman later?” Terry squirmed against him and Phil couldn’t wait to find out exactly why.

Gerard gave him a wide grin. “Marco will be performing on me, or perhaps I’ll fuck him, who knows? But Marty will be in the room watching.” Gerard sighed as he settled back on the sofa again. “It’s even more fun with more people in the room,but I don’t trust easily. There are those who’ve tried to take advantage of the situation, even with boundaries, and Marco has had a challenging past, so I’m very careful.”

Phil nodded. “Of course, perfectly understandable. My protective instincts over Terry are what brought me to your doorstep tonight.”

“Yes, sorry. I got a bit sidetracked there. But give it some thought. If you want to explore it further, give me a call and I’ll be happy to answer any questions or concerns you have.” He winked. “If you decide you want to play with us, that is.”

The fact that Phil was fighting an erection again had him wanting to at least discuss the possibility with Terry later on. His threat to yank down his pants and spank Terry in front of the crowd their first night at Gerard’s had certainly seemed to turn Terry on.

“I will. Thank you.”

“Well then.” Gerard drew his eyebrows together. “I guess it’s time to discuss less pleasant topics. May I speak freely to your boy?”

“Absolutely.” Phil removed his hand from Terry’s head. “You can lift your gaze to speak with Master Gerard.”

“Yes, Sir.” Terry straightened.

Gerard regarded Terry. “So, the night you were here when I was gone, there was a sub you knew, but he was with a Master who called himself Joe? Plus, at least one other Master who tried to go after you?”

Phil held in his own possessive growl. It was a good thing he hadn’t been around. He wouldn’t have wanted to cast a negative impression on Eric by pounding anyone to the ground in Gerard’s home.Which is why Eric said there were such tight limits on who were allowed in as guests.

“Yeah, I mean, yes, sir.” Terry sucked in a breath as if to compose himself. “I was alone because, well, you know.”Terry’s face flushed deep. “Anyway, I went into the kitchen to get some water and was shocked when a client of mine was in there on a leash with a tougher, kind of scraggly-looking guy. I’d say this Master Joe was maybe ten or fifteen years older than me, leathery skin, built more like a bear, umm…” Terry furrowed his brow. “To be honest, I was tryingnotto look at him. I was already nervous about my scene, Anson has always skeeved me out, and I was really endeavoring not to make Dom eye contact.” Terry chuckled. “No use egging anyone on.”
