CHAPTER 230
Soon Kiera was in the sex toy store online, showing Skai different types of women's toys.
"This is a clitoral stimulator. It will have you moaning and begging for more."
"Okay. What's that?" She pointed at a little object like a remote but when Kiera clicked on it, Skaiwithdrew her finger.
"Hmm. This is a remote control. When he uses the butt plug, you can use the vibrator. It will be a lot of fun."
"Uh-huh."
"Do you have a favourite colour, Skai? We can order the items online. I want to treat you."
"I'm not interested in sex toys, Kiera. Besides, I already have a boyfriend. That's enough for me."
Skai leaned back against the chair's headrest.
"Pffft."
She moved a lock of hair from her face, tucking it behind her ears as she raised a brow. "What's that?"
"Sigh they make things fun. But.." Skai lifted her palm to stop her from carrying on.
"Kiera. No. Just no. I'm not going to discuss this again. If he is busy and needs me to wait, I'll wait. I'll be patient and wait."
Deep down she knew if either men were busy then that was her chance at rest.
Whenever both men had their turns, she doubted any of them would kiss the opportunity.
And after what happened with Damien, Skai realised that the sharing may be to her detriment in the end as each time either one was with her, it fuelled the other's need to want to do better and show up.
Their cravings thus multiplies and whose "coochie" like Kiera called it, was going to go in for it?
"That's not what you're supposed to do. You're not a freaking robot, Skai. I'm pretty sure you have feelings and needs."
"I do. I'll take care of it with a nice bath. Trust me."
"Well, okay. Then at least tell him to give you a quickie at work or something."
Skai shook her head. Her friend was something else. She wondered if Kiera mistakenly took an overdose of something that got her out of control like that or did she suddenly become twice of how she used to be?
"Well, that's a good thing too, isn't it?" Kiera asked when Skai fell silent. The latter was too busy with her thoughts to bother with Kiera's incessant questions.
Kiera assessed Skai. She knew out of all of their friend group, Skai was the more less adventurous when it came to her desires.
And if she was still like this, it meant there were still some untapped areas.
If only she knew what her less adventurous friend was up to with one of her mates.
"I can't believe I have to ask you this but have you not had the chance to try out new things?"
"Nope."
"But you said..."
"Again Kii, not helping, babe. I don't wanna discuss this with you. Why are you being pushy?"
"What! Come on Skai. Don't tell me you're that much of a prude."
"I'm not. We've done many things already."
"Such as?"
"Like uh..."
"See. You can't name one. Come on. Let's go."
"Where?"
"To the store. You need a new life and the solution is right in front of you. Let's go."
"No, Kiera. I'm fine."
"You're not. You're stressed and tense and the solution is a great release."
"I can manage."
"By having him fuck you. Which is good but it's not all."
"Yes it is."
"It's not."
"I can't go."
"Why not? You don't have work."
"I do."
"Call in sick. I'm not asking you to go to a nightclub or anything. Every girl needs this and you, my friend , have been living in the dark for so long."
"Sigh."
"There's this place that sells the most sexy and erotic undergarments. And lingerie."
"Lingerie too?"
Kiera stood up. "Yes. Come." She helped Skai's hand. "You're gonna thank me later."
"I'm not so sure."
"You will. Trust me. Plus, the experience is amazing. I'll get my boy a few things too. He will surely appreciate them."
"Oh God. Are you planning a threesome or something?"
"What! Of course not. Why would I share my man? Except you wanna invite your CEO, Damien and have a threesome."
Skai shied away. "Don't be ridiculous."
"Okay. Now hurry up and finish. We have a lot of stores to hit before we come back and little time."
Skai did her best to speed up her meal and drink, but Kiera didn't miss the opportunity to tease her and make her laugh before they dashed off.
It didn't take long for Skai and Kiera to find the store Kiera was so eager about.
Kiera's eyes sparkled, clapping her hands together.
"Ooooh, now this is what I'm talking about. Skai Jayden. You are in for the greatest pleasure of your life."
"Uh-huh."
"Hey, I know you're a bit apprehensive, but this is something that will blow your mind and keep you going."
"Sure. Fine."
"I'm serious. Look around and tell me what catches your eye," gesturing at the different beauties staring at them.
Skai's gaze landed on the door and the sign at top of it. "The exit. Can we go now?"
Kiera let her hands drop to her side, giving her friend the hopeless stare. "Skai."
"Fine."
"Great." She clasped her hands together. "Pick something and put it on. I promise you, this is not something you would regret doing. I'll get the vibrators, the lubricants, the cock ring and the rest."
"Oh God. Is this a bad dream?"
"Hell no. This is the best dream and the beginning of a new you."
"I'm not looking for a new me."
"Yeah, well, the old you sucks. Come on. Let's get you set."
Skai's heart beat a thousand times faster when Kiera started the journey of searching and selecting lingerie for her.
The sales lady was helpful, taking Kiera's side.
"Now, do you have a specific colour you would like?"
"Purple."
"How about red?" Kiera asked.
"That would look beautiful on you. The black, the navy blue, the white, the burgundy, and the wine. Would you like a two piece or a one piece?"
"Two pieces," Kiera quickly replied, smiling at Skai, then at the lady.
Skai's hand fell at her side while holding the lingerie set in her hands. "You don't have to pick my underwear for me."
"Oh please, you have no sense of fashion. You'll probably pick a plain white panty. At least let me give you a little flare."
"That's a lie. I'm wearing lace undies right now," Skai revealed. "I may not be into most of these things doesn't mean I don't know a thing or two about looking sexy for one's self."
"Sureee… but I'll take my chances."
"Fine. But no thongs or transparent."
"I'll try not to."
"Try hard. I'm not wearing a G-string."
"Argh, have you ever asked Jared if he loves it? There's hardly a male who wouldn't admire it. It sets the mood. No one said to wear it everyday or hour. Though you can."
"Understood."
Kiera beamed at Skai then she nodded. "It's time to try your fitting on them. Here," she handed Kiera a maroon-coloured lingerie and pushed her into the changing room, going in with her.
"Start changing." Kiera's authoritative tone left no room for any arguments.
Seeing as she was left with no escape, Skai removed her clothes, leaving only her underwear.
"Nice," Kiera whistled cutely. "So let's upgrade you from this," she pointed to the lingerie set and Skai rolled her eyes, "...to this."
Moving her hair to one side, Skai, she leaned down wanting to try the lingerie when something caught Kiera's eyes.
"Hold on. Wait." Skai paused, unsure what Kiera wanted. "What is…" she inched closer, pushing Skai's hair out of the way. "Oh my gee, Skai you never told me you had a tattoo!"
Skai's brows knotted. She stood up, her eyes fixed on Kiera's gleeful expression. "A tattoo?"
"Yes. The twin or should I say the inverted marks at the centre of your neck at your back. Girl you rocking. Wow, is getting a boyfriend changing so much for you?"
Kiera studied the tattoo properly on Skai's neck.
Skai was left perplexed as she processed Kiera's words. "A tattoo?" she repeated, turning to face the mirror.
Kiera gave an exaggerated sigh, gently taking Skai by the shoulders and rotating her until she could see the back of her neck. "Right here," Kiera said, pointing emphatically at the spot.
At first, Skai assumed Kiera had noticed the matebond marks from Jared and Damien. However, when she saw Kiera's finger indicating a different area, she frowned. "That's not possible. I don't have any tattoos."
Kiera's eyes widened with curiosity. "Then what is this?"
Skai leaned closer to the mirror, squinting as she examined her reflection.
Sure enough, there was an intricate design at the base of her neck, an elaborate merging of the two matebond marks into one seamless pattern like the Yin and Yang symbol joining as one.
"W-When did this happen?" she whispered, more to herself than to Kiera.
