Finally, the blindfold. The world disappeared. Everything was darkness and anticipation. Victor moved away. Zoey heard his footsteps. She heard the faint clinking of something metallic. Then, silence. Her body began to sweat. Her nipples hardened against the leather support. She imagined what would come. The touch of his tongue? An object? The heat of a candle?

The specific quiet of a scar that had been carried for a long time. His fingers paused. One second. He looked at it. Then he looked at the green. He adjusted her grip. Clean. Professional.
