Annaliese found herself feeling exposed, open and vulnerable, yet in no true danger. She had been intimate with Andrew before but this was different, far more personally and intimate. This wasn’t Andrew exerting his will over her, it was Annliese trusting him enough to care for both their needs while she was in this state.
When she had first voiced her curiosity regarding bondage, Annaliese wasn’t certain how her partner would react. At first he thought it was a curiosity borne from the latest media craze but she quickly reassured him that it was not. She’d read intimate literature before, from romance to light erotica, yet she had always been aware of the possibility of bondage. With the current social trend it had merely seemed like the safest time to mention her curiosity. Andrew was all too happy to oblige.
