Ch. 20 Present Day

After our stroll on memory lane, Gail is finished preparing our lunch for us.  She made us turkey artichoke Panini sandwiches.  We sit on the stools in the breakfast bar. Gail leaves us to ourselves. Teddy and Ava fell asleep.

While we are eating, Kate goes straight to the point. “Mrs. Steele, I want to know more about the kinkiness that you experience with Mr. Control Freak. So spill it!” She will never change. Her inquisitive nature is who she is, but I still love her.

How am I going to tell her without going into all the details which I don’t want her to know? Those details are only for mine and Christian’s eyes. I signed the NDA before we got married and it still stands as part of our marriage. I had to ask Christian if it was okay to tell her a little about his lifestyle and what happened to us when she found the Dom/sub contract in Christian’s jacket a few years ago. Christian agreed with me since she was my best friend and she could keep a secret. She knows about the red room of pleasure, but has never seen it. It will remain that way. Only Christian, myself, and our staff are allowed in there. She is getting impatient with me, because I haven’t answered her yet.

“Kate, I will be honest with you. I cannot tell you everything we do because they are our private moments.  I also will never be able to show you our red room which you know a little about. All I can say about it is our place to getaway and role play. With that said would you like to know what I can tell you?”

She rolled her eyes and said, “Ana, I understand you and Christian have your privacy. I also have mine as well with Elliot.  With all due respect, I do not want to know more about the red room nor see it. You have my word.  I respect your wishes, but it doesn’t mean I won’t try to get the information from you some other time. I am just kidding.” She winks at me. She didn’t fight me on it. She is becoming a softie. What happened to my Kate? I know she will appear at some time again. She shouldn’t roll her eyes in front of Christian. He doesn’t like that. I like rolling my eyes though, because I get a very sensual spanking with hot sex as a bonus.

I will try to explain to the best I can. “Christian knows my body very well. He knows when I am angry, turned on, sad, and so on.  When we have all types of sex, he knows what my limits are which he respects. We role play very frequently in and out of the red room. Role playing and using the sex toys spices up our sex life. It makes it more intense.”

“Ana, I cannot believe you are more experienced than me. I definitely would like to roll play with Elliot. Do you have any sex toys here you can show me? Which ones do you recommend for me as a starter?”

“Kate, I have some sex toys hidden in a secret compartment in our bedroom. I will bring some out. I know the perfect toys you could start with. Stay right here.”

 

I walk over to our bedroom and open the compartment. Once I am done grabbing some of the toys, I put it in a bag made for them. I check on Teddy to make sure he is still asleep. I wouldn’t want him startling us with the toys in our hands. With his curiosity he will want to touch them and ask what they are. How would I explain them to him? He is sleeping like a baby. I go back to Kate in the living room.

Kate gives me an inquisitive smirk. She is speechless with anticipation as I start to open up the bag.  She has surprised me again today. A speechless Kate!

The first item I pull out is the Kegel balls.  “Kate, these are Kegel Balls. It strengthens the pelvic muscles for improved orgasms. You have to lubricate them before you insert in yourself.  When you have them on for a few hours while you make any type of movement, it stimulates you to the point of having an orgasm. I wore them on many occasions in and out of our house. I recommend highly recommend them for you.”

“You used these in public? Wow, you are brave! What else do you have in there?” She is acting like a toddler receiving Christmas presents.

“Yes Kate I did use it in public. Wearing them made my orgasms last longer. You have to try it.”

The next item is the nipple clamps. “These are nipple clamps. They come in a variety of styles. There are some that even that vibrate. It doesn’t hurt when you clamp them on your nipples. Here, let me show you.” I clamp it on her finger to show her.

She says, “You are right. It doesn’t hurt. I like it. Do you have the vibrating one and other styles? It must feel good on the nipples.”

I answer her, “Yes, we have many styles even the vibrating one. We have used them all. It arouses your nipples helping come quicker.”

I pull out the fur lined handcuffs and place it in her hands. She feels the soft fur around the cuffs.  I tell her, “As you see, what you are holding are handcuffs. The feathers help so your skin won’t burn or bruise. It actually tickles your wrists. The reason you would use them is so you won’t be able to touch your partner. He will be able to torture you in a sensual way heightening your body’s senses and orgasm. If you wear a blindfold and earphones with music resonating in your ears while you are handcuffed, all of your senses are heightened.  Your body will feel every caress as if it was dancing in tune on your skin and it will feel as if you are burning with desire like a fire.  When he enters you as you are hearing the music, your release will feel as if it is exploding like fireworks.”

Kate is so excited. “The way you described it makes me want to experience it, Ana. I see why you are bewitched by Christian and take his crap.”

“Kate, I don’t take his crab. I am not afraid him. I know how to handle him. Inside he is a like a lost puppy who only wants to feel love. Yes he is a powerful CEO. When he goes all CEO on me, I go all CEO on him as well. He does have control issues. I don’t think he will ever get over it. We still fight over it, but I win most of the times.”

Kate apologizes, “Ana, I didn’t mean it that way. I am sorry.”

“It is okay Kate. I know you didn’t mean it. Are you ready for the next item?” She nods her head.

As I am about to bring out the miniature flogger, I hear Teddy waking up from his nap on the baby monitor.  “Well Kate, our fun is over. I have to go get Teddy.”

“It is alright Ana. We will leave it for another time.”

I walk to Teddy’s room and he leaps out of his bed into my arms. I am going to kiss his cheek when I see his face. What happened to his face? I have to take him to the hospital.

I shout out to Kate, “Call Grace and tell her we are going to the hospital right now!”

 I run downstairs holding him in my arms protecting him. I grab my purse, phone, and Teddy’s bag while Kate calls Grace.

“Grace we are going to the hospital at this moment. ………It is his face…. Okay. We will call Christian on the way there…..Thank you Grace.”

Sawyer is already at the door waiting for us at the elevator. Kate has Ava cradled in her arms. She will follow us to the hospital.

In the car, I call Christian. “Christian we are heading to the hospital. There is something wrong with Teddy’s face.”

“Ana I am on my way. Is he okay?” I hope Christian does not go nuclear on me.

“He seems fine except for how his face looks like. Kate already called Grace informing her we are on our way. I don’t know what happened. His face was fine before his nap.”

“Okay Ana. I love you!” Phew! That went well. We will see when he sees him at the hospital.

“I love you Christian!”

I hang up the phone.  I hold Teddy’s hand to comfort him.

Christian’s POV

I am in the middle of a meeting with an Argentine company that creates software for all types of technology. The owners name is Walter. I am trying to buy them out. The owner is not fucking budging. He wants more money. I will not pay more, because they have had a major loss financially due to the owners negligent. He placed his own interests above of his company. He spent an absurd amount of money in unimportant things.  It gets me so fucking angry when the owner of a company does not value his employees and his own company. I am trying to control my anger towards him as much as I can.

My phone suddenly rings. I answer it and it is Ana. She does not give me a chance to say hi.

In her worried voice she says, “Christian we are heading to the hospital. There is something wrong with Teddy’s face.”

What the fuck happened to him? My little boy! I excuse myself from the meeting in a hurry. I don’t care what Walter thinks my family comes first. Ros can take over.

I am going to my car to drive to the hospital. “Ana I am on my way. Is he okay? What happened?” Please let him be okay. I don’t think I can handle anything bad happening to my Teddy bear.

She answers me, “He seems fine except for how his face looks like. Kate already called Grace informing her we are on our way. I don’t know what happened. His face was fine before his nap.”  I can sense Ana is so worried about our little boy. I am also worried, but I have to play it cool. I cannot get angry.

“Okay Ana. I love you!” I do love her! She is a great mother and wife.

“I love you Christian!” She declares her love for me. I love it when she says she loves me. All I want to do is protect her and Teddy bear.  I feel so out of control, because I couldn’t protect my Teddy today.

I am almost reaching the hospital.

Grace’s POV

I am waiting for Ana to arrive with Teddy. I hope it is nothing serious. As a doctor I can handle patients, but when anyone in my family gets hurt I lose it. I play my part as a doctor but deep down my heart aches.

I hope Christian does not overreact and yell at the staff.  I always have to apologize to them after for Christian.

When I Kate called me I asked her,”What happened to him?” She said it was his face. My poor grandson.  I told Kate I already have a room and staff ready for Teddy.

I see Ana run over to me with Teddy in her arms. Oh my gosh!  His face looks horrible.
