Most of my people don’t bother with them any longer because the
soul bonding is more permanent than a mere ceremony. But if it’s what you want,
we’ll have the ceremony. Whatever makes you happy, Samantha. All you ever need to do is ask. If it is within my power to make it happen, I always will. As to the
list.” Petr chuckled softly and shook his head. “I have not attempted all of them. This is merely a list of
all things that someone at some time has tried and so it made it on this list.
Study it, and decide for yourself what interests you and what you would never
allow. If you click on the tab on the bottom corner, you’ll see my list of things that I’m open to doing, and a few I would like to
try as well as what I will never, ever do to another person. Most especially
the one that holds my heart.”
She
smiled up at him and nodded. “As long as you don’t draw blood, try to scar me, use the bathroom on me, treat me
like furniture, or shame me I’m pretty open.” Because to be honest she was
willing to try just about anything as long as he was there with her. “Not so sure about me
wearing a dildo and fucking you, though, ”
she said with a frown as she got to that one on the screen.
“That
one is not on my list,” he muttered. Pressing a kiss to her cheek, he pulled her in closer to
brush his fingers up and down her arm. “I would never do anything to harm you,
Samantha. It goes against who I am to think of hurting you with something like that. A spanking, paddle,
or even some carefully chosen floggers would be my preferred choice. Something to give a bit of a sting without any
lasting or permanent damage to this skin I want to lick all over.”
She
shivered. Oh she liked that thought. She passed him the pad, then nestled in
close to him. “I want to experience everything with you, Petr. It doesn’t have to be today or
tomorrow. We have the rest of our lives, right?”
He
set the data pad aside, then settled down with her wrapped in his arms. “We have plenty of time to make
our own lists up of things we want to try as a couple. Something we can do
after we’re back from visiting my sister.”
“You
said that was dangerous?” She pulled back to look at him. “And what about me? I
heard you talking to your second-in-command about your people’s leaders wanting to meet me?
Which I have to tell you is terrifying.” Even though she knew without a shadow
of a doubt he wouldn’t let her be hurt.
“It
is dangerous, but she wants to meet you since I went and opened my mouth. Best
you do not ask, Samantha.” He shook his head and gave her an aggrieved look.
“Younger sisters are pests. I am sorry, but there it is. And yes the ruling
body of Imara wants to meet you. From what I was able
to get out of the messages it seems they’re curious, mostly. Then there is the
fact you’re mine. They want to meet the woman who took me down.”
“What
do you mean, took you down?” She was smiling, though.
“I’m willing to meet them, too. I just hope they don’t give me a hard time when
I speak my mind, and I will. I think that war is needless and senseless. I see
what it did to my world and it hurts me to think of what it’s doing to your
people. Yes, you are so very far advanced from where my people were but that’s
even more reason for your peoples to get along.” It frustrated her, the things
she had learned. Enough so that she was also spending time in the archives that
the ship had for their people and looking into what caused the original rift
and war. There had to be a reason.
“Speak
with Adira about it. She and Fintan have done a lot of research into the original cause of the war. They and
several others have been digging through the archives of the Craegin people in the hopes of finding some clue. Then we’ll talk about what will
likely occur when you get to meet the ruling body. Don’t worry about anything,
Samantha. You know I’ll always keep you safe.”
She
snorted. “I
