Lesson Sixteen
The wonders of the mind.
Your instructor is Professor Taltos
Hello again! Glad to see you’ve joined me. As you may recall I was trying to express my evening with the Raven in a story form. Not an easy task, believe me. There are so very many things that happen to us in our lifetime. Most of these we can’t even come close to explaining in simple words. So please try to remember I am attempting to tell the story the way I experienced it. And simple words are all I’ve got to give you. I can’t promise that I will be able to succeed in sending out a clear message. That said, let’s carry on, shall we?
Raven smiled as he walked around the bed. Bending down, he picked her up in his arms. Shock kept her from struggling as he laid her down gently on the over-stuffed bed. She knew she should be angry, he was taking great liberty with her. But after her long trip back home and spending her days trying to organize the rest of her world, she wanted someone to take over for her.
It was somehow a comforting feeling as he began to undress her. His hands were large and callused but he handled undressing her as if she were a child. Lilith wasn’t used to being handled this way. She actually enjoyed having someone else call the shots, for a change, and the
Raven seemed to know it.
He set her down on the big over-stuffed bed. Liltih found she was more than happy to just lay there and watch the show. The view was great! Her new slave was tall, dark and rugged, just the way she liked her men. She had no desire for a boy she would have to teach to please her. She wanted a grown man, someone she felt comfy with turning the reins over to. It seemed
Raven was just that soul. The Mistress Lilith was in unfamiliar territory. She had never had a slave before and would have to be careful that fact didn’t show.
His big brown eyes remained on her as he dropped the last article of clothing on the floor. There was a twinkle in them that made her feel very at ease. She found she was smiling back at him as he leaned over her. Self-confidence wasn’t lacking in this guy, a fact that really appealed to Lilith. She needed someone to work along with her instead of waiting for her to give all the commands. He climbed over her and lay down. Without thinking about why Lilith curled up on his chest and closed her eyes for a moment, enjoying the feeling. It was rare that she found herself relaxed anymore. The feeling was almost alien to her.
Holding her close, his big hands played along her body, making her feel as if she was tingling all over. He bent down and kissed her hard on the lips. There was no doubt about the urgency that was in the kiss. It told her he was as needy as she was. Then he began to softly speak to her. The sound almost startled her, causing her to look up into his eyes. Up to this point there had been only silence between them. Words had been unnecessary.
“My Lady I am humbled to be here with you. Please give me no direction my Lady. I beg you, let me serve you, as you deserve to be served. Allow me to show you how capable I am of pleasing you without needing direction. I promise you’ll not be sorry.” He delivered his speech slowly and deliberately. He smiled down at her as he spoke. Her eyes told him all he needed to know. He began kissing her again. The kisses demanded response but she pushed away slightly from him. “Continue!” was her only response. He did as he was ordered.
The Raven continued. He continued on to touch her, in ways that made her come alive. He found paths to her emotions and needs that even she never knew were there. With his rough hands he traced her body, outlining it as if to memorize each curve. She sat back and enjoyed the attention.
His breath was soft in her ear, as he whispered magical words that gave life to her fantasies. It was as if he had been with her all along, watching and waiting for a chance to join her. Lilith soon forgot he was her slave. She found herself hanging onto him tightly, crying out his name over and over again. The feeling was alien but wonderful to her. The freedom to say and do as she wished behind the closed doors of her bedchambers. For the first time in her life Lilith honestly felt free. She could say or do anything with
Raven. This fact made it easier for her to reach out. Which is exactly what she did.
I can’t explain what was going on in my mind at that moment. But what I can tell you is for a brief period of time, I was Lilith, and I was in that beautiful castle far away. Perhaps it’s because I have such a good imagination or perhaps it’s because
Raven is a fabulous storyteller. But I was there, and I did find a place in my soul where I have kept feelings and desires tucked away, safe and alone. Things I have never shared with any other human in this world. These things weren’t locked away because of shame or guilt. They were locked away because they were too fragile (in my opinion) to share with any others.
Somehow Raven knew these things, and somehow he breathed life into them. When I asked him how he had managed to do this, his response was surprising.
“My Lady I will answer all you ask of me and more, but I will only answer to you. There is no other in this room than you and I. Professor Taltos is absent and must remain as such.” I have to admit it took a second, but I finally figured out he wanted us to stay in character while we were in the room. Which meant if I wanted to get any more information from him I had to comply. This guy was impressive.
I agreed to be Lilith for the remainder of our interviews. I have to admit I agreed without haste. Why not? I was having a great time. But for now I think I have once again prattled along enough. I hope you will join me next time as I find out a wee bit more about the slave called ’Blood Raven’.
Until next time this Professor Taltos signing off.
