The Taste of Seduction

Meredith leaned forward and cupped his face in her hands.

"What if you\'re the one who falls in love with me?" her lips formed a soft smile which brightened her face.

Atlas smiled darkly, "No. Love isn\'t for a man like me."

And what kind of man are you? Meredith wanted to ask but she didn\'t. She knew he was warning her, letting her know not to have any stupid fantasies because this was purely sex for him. No feelings attached.

Meredith knew she was a hopeless romantic and this was a dangerous game for her. Deep within her she had always wanted to give her virginity to a man who loved her. Someone who would make slow and passionate love to her worshipping every inch of her.

Never in her wildest dream did she think a cold and twisted man like Atlas was the one she was going to lose herself to. But Meredith didn\'t mind though because honestly making a deal with the devil sounded so attractive.

Also, she was no stranger to this thing. This had been one of her darkest fantasies since she started reading all those erotica books.

Meredith was so used to hardcore and rough style of smut in books that she found herself getting bored with the slow passionate ones.

She had always wondered what\'s like to have a man wrapped his hands around your neck as he drove you to sweet oblivion. How it felt like to have your body consumed by fire and ice while you felt nothing but complete ecstasy. But experiencing it in reality she was a bit shy and nervous.

This was her choice and she was not going to let the opportunity of fulfilling her sexual fantasies pass her by. What if she wasn\'t good enough and didn\'t satisfy him?

"What are you thinking about?" Atlas leaned back his face thoughtful.

"That I wouldn\'t be enough for you and can\'t satisfy you." Meredith said, a blush on her cheeks.

"You will be fine Angel. Don\'t think about satisfying me. All you have to do is to listen. Leave the satisfying part to me."

Meredith nodded. She swallowed her nerves and asked the question that had been at the back of her mind all evening.

"Are you going to inflict pain on me?" Meredith asked, suddenly nervous.

"Yes." He replied as his eyes darkened

Meredith shivered, panic swelling inside her.

"But I won\'t always want pain or humiliation. I just want control and we can always stop once you reach your limit or you want us to stop all you have to do is utter your safe word." Atlas explained.

"Safe word?" Meredith asked confusion etching between her brows.

"Yes, it\'s a word which ends the play instantly. So, pick one. It can be any word."

Meredith bit her lips avoiding his gaze. No words were coming to her mind.

"We can use the traffic light system if you want. It will be easier for you to remember since all of this is new to you." Atlas offered.

"The red, yellow, green?"

Atlas nodded.

"Red means stop right now. Yellow means I should slow down since it\'s too much for you and Green means I should carry on."

Meredith nodded. Her eyes were full of resolve and curiosity now. She wanted to know, wanted a taste of how it felt to make a deal with the devil. Will he drive her into the abyss of hell?

"Show me." She murmured.

"Show me what you warned me about."

Atlas expression darkened. He stared into her eyes searching for any trace of fear but Meredith was sure he wouldn\'t find one.

"Are you sure Angel?" His voice lowered dangerously warning her that once they start there was no going back.

"Yes." Meredith swallowed, knotting her fingers.

"Do you know what I will do to you? This isn\'t a child\'s play." Atlas asked silkily.

"Yes. You will own my body and do whatever you want with it. You will choke me, spank me, call me degrading names."

The air thickened and Meredith shifted a little.

"Yet you\'re agreeing to this. Why is that Angel?"

Meredith fought a blush before answering him.

"Maybe"She paused.

"This is what I have always wanted." Meredith whispered shame and desire mingled hot in her throat while she had a glimpse of the danger simmering in his eyes.

Atlas stood up. His lips curled up but it wasn\'t a smile. It was dark and hungry. His gaze burning her with intensity.

"Get up." He said softly but the command in his tone was loud and clear.

Meredith stood up, her stomach churning with nerves.

"I\'m going to show you what happens when you make a deal with the devil.." Atlas murmured with a dark look in his eyes.
