Chapter 3: Pegged on the Twin Mattress
The mattress dipped under his weight, the old springs groaning like they'd been waiting for this. Kyle sat on the edge, hands still trembling, jeans soaked through with pre-come and sweat. The lace panties were crumpled on the floor somewhere behind him, and he could still taste the ghost of her detergent on his tongue.
Madi stood between his knees, looking down at him with that same appraising expression. The black bra was a stark contrast against her pale skin, and he could see the faint outline of her nipples through the lace. She reached for the hem of his rugby jersey and tugged it upward.
"Arms up."
He obeyed. The jersey came off in one motion, and the cool air hit his overheated skin like a slap. He was still wearing his undershirt, a plain gray thing damp with sweat, and she peeled that off too, slower this time, her fingers brushing against his ribs, his shoulders, the curve of his biceps.
"You're built like a fucking tank," she said, and there was something in her voice—not mockery, not quite admiration either. Just observation. "All this muscle and you're sitting here letting me undress you like a doll."
He didn't answer. Couldn't. His throat had closed up somewhere around the time she'd called him cute, and every breath felt like it was being pulled through a straw.
Her hands went to his belt. The leather was worn soft from years of use, and she unbuckled it with practiced ease, sliding it through the loops and dropping it to the floor with a clatter. Then the button. The zipper. She tugged his jeans down over his hips, and he lifted up just enough to let her pull them off completely.
His boxers were tented obscenely, a dark wet patch spreading across the front. She looked at it, then at him, one eyebrow raised.
"Already?"
He felt his face burn. "I—"
"Don't apologize." She hooked her fingers into the waistband of his boxers. "It's flattering. Just means I've been doing something right."
She pulled them down, and his cock sprang free, flushed dark and slick with pre-come, curving up toward his stomach. He was thick, veined, the kind of cock that made women do a double-take—but right now it just looked desperate. Needy. A single bead of fluid welled at the tip and slid down the shaft, and Madi watched it with a small, satisfied smile.
"Lie back," she said. "Arms above your head."
He stretched out on the bed, and the sheets smelled like her—lavender body wash and something sweeter underneath, the ghost of the vanilla candle she'd burned earlier. The fairy lights overhead painted the ceiling in soft gold, and he fixed his eyes on them, trying to slow his breathing.
She climbed onto the bed beside him, straddling his waist, and reached for something on the nightstand. He heard the click of a drawer opening, the rustle of fabric, and then she was holding up a length of black rope. Soft. Worn.
"Where'd you—"
"Shh." She pressed a finger to his lips. "Remember the rules."
Yes or please. That was all he was allowed.
She looped the rope around his left wrist first, then his right, working with the quick efficiency of someone who'd done this a hundred times before. The fibers were smooth against his skin, and when she pulled the ends tight and tied them to the headboard, he felt his breath catch in his chest.
The position stretched his arms above his head, pulled his shoulders taut, arched his spine just enough to make his ribs stand out against his skin. He couldn't move more than a few inches in any direction. Couldn't touch her. Couldn't stop her.
His cock twitched, and a fresh wave of pre-come slicked the tip.
Madi settled back onto his thighs, and the weight of her—small as she was—pinned him to the mattress. Her fingers traced a line down his chest, through the light dusting of hair, across his stomach, stopping just short of his groin. He sucked in a breath through his teeth.
"Ticklish?" she asked.
"No."
"Liar."
She did it again, slower this time, and his muscles jumped under her touch. She laughed, soft and genuine, and for a second she was just Madi again—his best friend, the girl who'd made him laugh until he cried at three in the morning, the one who always stole his fries and never apologized.
Then her hand closed around his cock, and the illusion shattered.
He groaned, a low sound that vibrated through his chest, and his hips bucked up into her grip. She squeezed once, just shy of too hard, and he stilled immediately.
"That's better," she murmured. "You're going to be a good boy for me, aren't you?"
"Yes," he managed. "Yes, I—please."
"Please what?"
"I don't—" He swallowed hard. "I don't know. Just please."
She smiled, and it was the wicked smile now, the one that made his stomach drop and his pulse spike. "Good answer."
Her hand started moving, a slow, torturous rhythm, up and down, up and down, her thumb swiping across the head of his cock each time she reached the top. He was leaking steadily now, his pre-come slicking the way, and the wet sounds filled the small room—obscene and perfect.
"You've thought about this," she said. Not a question.
He nodded, his teeth clenched so hard his jaw ached.
"How long?"
He couldn't answer. Couldn't form words. She squeezed again, harder this time, and he gasped.
"I asked you a question."
"Since—" He bit down on his lip, hard enough to taste copper. "Since the day you—when I walked in on you—"
"That long?" Her hand moved faster, tighter. "You've been thinking about me tying you up and touching your cock for months?"
"Yes," he choked out. "Yes, fuck, yes."
"Language."
She released him, and the loss of contact was so sudden, so brutal, that he nearly sobbed. He pulled at the ropes, muscles straining, but the knots held firm. She watched him struggle with that same calm, amused expression, one finger tracing idle patterns on his thigh.
"Turn over," she said.
"What?"
"You heard me. On your stomach."
He hesitated—just for a second—and her eyebrow arched. That was all it took. He twisted onto his side, then his stomach, the ropes creaking against the headboard as he moved. His arms were crossed above his head now, and the position forced his face into the pillow. He could smell her shampoo, coconut and something floral, and he inhaled deeply without thinking.
The first slap landed before he was ready.
His whole body jerked, a shocked cry muffled by the pillow. The sting bloomed across his left ass cheek, hot and sharp, and before he could process it, another slap landed on the right. Then another. Another.
She wasn't holding back. Each hit sent a jolt through his entire body, and he could feel his skin flushing, heating, the blood rushing to the surface. The pain was real, undeniable, but underneath it was something else—a slow, spreading warmth that had nothing to do with the sting.
"Count," she said.
"What?"
Another slap, harder than the rest. "Count them. Out loud."
"One," he gasped. "Two. Three—"
She kept going. He lost track somewhere around fifteen, his voice breaking on each number, his ass burning like fire. Tears pricked at the corners of his eyes, and he was grinding his hips into the mattress without meaning to, his cock trapped between his stomach and the sheets, leaking a wet spot into the fabric.
"Twenty," she said finally. "Good boy."
He whimpered. Actually whimpered, a pathetic sound that he would have been ashamed of if he'd had any shame left. But all he could feel was the heat radiating from his ass, the throb of his cock, the complete and total surrender of his body to her.
He heard her moving behind him—the rustle of fabric, the click of something plastic. Then her hand was on his ass again, but gentle this time, rubbing something cool and slick into his skin. Lube. She was prepping him.
"Relax," she said. "I'm not going to hurt you. Not more than you want, anyway."
Her finger pressed against his entrance, and he tensed instinctively. She waited, patient, until he forced himself to breathe, to relax, to let her in. The first finger slid inside him slow and easy, and he groaned into the pillow.
"Fuck," he muttered. "Fuck, Madi—"
"Shh. Just feel it."
She worked him open with methodical precision, one finger, then two, scissoring and curling until he was panting, pushing back against her hand. The stretch burned, but it was a good burn, a burn that made his toes curl and his eyes roll back. When she added a third finger, he cried out, and she shushed him again, her other hand stroking the small of his back.
"You're so tight," she murmured. "So fucking tight. When's the last time someone touched you like this?"
He couldn't answer. Couldn't think. His whole world had narrowed to her fingers inside him, the slick sounds, the pressure building low in his gut.
"Answer me."
"A while," he managed. "A year. Maybe more."
"Poor thing." She curled her fingers, pressing against something that made white light explode behind his eyes. "No wonder you're so desperate."
She pulled her fingers out, and he heard the snap of latex, the buckle of leather. When he turned his head just enough to look, he saw her tightening the straps of a harness around her hips, a sleek purple dildo jutting out from the front. His mouth went dry.
"Color?" she asked.
"What?"
"Your safe word. Pick one. If it gets too much, you say it, and I stop. Understand?"
He blinked, trying to process. "Um. Red?"
"Fine. Red it is." She positioned herself behind him, one hand on his hip, the other guiding the tip of the dildo to his entrance. "Ready?"
"Yes." His voice cracked. "Please. Please, Madi."
She pushed inside him slow, inch by inch, and the stretch was everything—pain and pleasure and fullness so complete it stole his breath. He buried his face in the pillow and moaned, a long, broken sound that seemed to come from somewhere deep in his chest.
"That's it," she said. "Take it. Take all of it."
He did. Every inch, until her hips were flush against his ass and she was buried to the hilt inside him. She held still for a moment, letting him adjust, and he could feel every throb of his own pulse around the dildo, every ragged breath she took.
Then she started to move.
The first thrust was slow, deliberate, pulling almost all the way out before sliding back in. The second was harder. The third harder still. Soon she'd found a rhythm—steady and deep, her hips slapping against his ass with each stroke, the wet sound of lube and skin filling the room.
"Fuck," she groaned, her voice low and rough. "You feel so good. So fucking tight around me."
He couldn't respond. Couldn't do anything but take it, his fingers twisting in the sheets, his cock leaking steadily onto her mattress. She reached around him, her hand closing around his shaft, and started stroking in time with her thrusts.
"So good," she repeated, her breath hot against his ear. "You're being so good for me, Kyle. Taking my cock like you were made for it."
The pressure was building, coiling tight in his gut, spreading through his limbs like wildfire. He was going to come. Right now. With her inside him, her hand on his cock, her voice in his ear.
"I'm—" he gasped. "Madi, I'm going to—"
"Come for me," she said. "Come on my sheets. Show me how good I made you feel."
And he did. The orgasm ripped through him like a storm, his whole body convulsing, his cock pulsing hot and thick over her fist. He cried out—her name, something incoherent, a broken sob—and buried his face in the pillow as wave after wave of pleasure crashed over him.
She worked him through it, her thrusts slowing, her hand gentling, until he was spent and trembling and completely hollowed out. When she finally pulled out, he collapsed onto the mattress, boneless and shaking, tears streaming down his face.
Madi unstrapped the harness and tossed it aside, then reached over him to untie the ropes. Her fingers worked quickly, loosening the knots, and when his arms were free, she pulled him against her chest.
He went willingly. Limply. His whole body felt like it belonged to someone else, and all he could do was breathe and tremble and let her hold him.
"You did so good," she whispered, stroking his hair back from his forehead. "So good. I'm proud of you."
He tried to speak, but his throat was raw and his brain was mush. Instead, he pressed his face into the curve of her shoulder and let himself cry—soft, quiet tears that soaked into her skin.
She didn't say anything. Just held him, her small body wrapped around his, her heartbeat steady against his ear. The fairy lights flickered overhead, and somewhere in the building, someone laughed.
Kyle closed his eyes and let himself be held.
It was the safest he'd felt in years.
