Chapter 88: Welcome to a New Kink

** Harper **

Yep, she shouldn’t have forgotten that what they actually came here for was ... an introduction to kinks. And the view in front of her now was practically screaming the word in her face.

The inner room was even bigger than the one they had just gone through, featuring a larger set of shelves along each wall. In the middle of the space sat an enormous table laden with ... various tools that Harper had read about before in books, but seeing them in real life somehow sent a shiver creeping up her spine. Despite the dim lighting, everything glinted with the harsh shine of metal, and the scent of leather filled every corner of the room.

"So this is the real heart of the store," Harper whispered as she stepped gingerly across the threshold, into the small crowd that moved about with a low murmur — unlike the outer shopping space where customers were sparse, this section was much busier, a sign of what this place was truly known for.

Eli trailed close behind her. In what appeared to be an oblique reminder of their ongoing conversation about lingeries, he paused by the shelves lining the nearest wall, glancing over the clothing options arranged there in a similar layout as the outer room.

Except—Harper realized as soon as her eyes landed in the same direction — that there was nothing similar between what was sold here and the lacy bra-and-panty sets they had just looked at.

The first piece that came into her view was a vinyl harness. The product label attached to it claimed that it was "lingerie", but in reality, there wasn’t a sheet of fabric on the whole thing. It was made completely out of straps and ring hooks, connecting a thick collar at the top to a pair of garters on the bottom with a zigzag of belts that looked like ... a full-body yoke frame.

The next piece, displayed just below the harness, was a set of metal chains in the shape of a thong. The long ends looped around the hips to tie together in the back, whereas the front was a cascade of five draping chains of different lengths, hanging down between the thighs like layered necklaces. One additional Y-shaped chain ran tightly across the crotch, securing the garment to the body.

The third piece ... was a pair of glue-on leather shapes covered with spiky metal stubs? Something that Harper didn’t recognize and couldn’t figure out the usage of.

"That’s a nipple pastie." Eli cleared his throat behind her when she kept staring at it. He sounded simultaneously amused and ... a little strained. "The metal rings at the center are for attaching additional chains. These would typically be used together with that chain G-string to complete the look."

Oh. Harper swallowed, her nipples burning a little at the imagination of wearing such a thing. She wasn’t quite sure if she felt more thrilled or terrified at the sensation.

"Well ... Thinking back on it, maybe the lingerie you were looking at earlier doesn’t seem that risqué after all." She gave Eli a sheepish smile and turned her eyes away from the shelves. Surely he wasn’t actually thinking that she could pull off anything in this room? The novelty was certainly intriguing, but she genuinely doubted she was that type of girl ...

The thought was only confirmed when she pivoted toward the center of the room and faced the equipment spread out on the table.

A whip. With thick, long, sturdy leather tassels.

A ball gag. With a huge mouthpiece secured to a strap that was fastened with a metal lock in the back.

A butt hook ...

She wondered if she actually cringed at the sight of these contraptions — God, she really was a chicken if she did — because the next moment, she felt Eli’s hand on the small of her back again. "Don’t even think about it," he whispered. "I’m not going to whip you even if you ask."

Harper was sure that these weren’t the kind of words most people would say in a store like this. But then again, most people weren’t in a state of newbie shock like she was. She darted a look at the man behind her appreciatively — when it mattered, he did keep his word about not judging.

"Though I do want to see you in this," he continued with a wink, picking up something from the assortment on the table.

It was a blindfold, soft and silky to the touch as he placed it in her hands. The black fabric was trimmed in dark green laces, dotted with tiny crystals that dazzled even in the dim light. A pretty and strangely "comfortable" feeling piece, unlike everything else in this section of the store.

Yes, this she could do. The unease of her awkward first encounter with kinky equipment started to fade as Harper brushed her fingers across the new find. "I like it," she said, and without further thought, she slipped the elastic band over her head to try it on.

In the darkness that followed, she heard a surprised hiss from Eli. "Harper ... You shouldn’t be putting that on right here."

She lifted a corner of the fabric to peer at him. "Why? You don’t like it?"

He cleared his throat again and plucked the blindfold off of her. "I do. But you realize that these accessories are designed to achieve a certain type of ... effect, which is not appropriate for outside the privacy of our homes, right?"

It took Harper an embarrassingly long moment to get the point he was making. And when she did, she took in an incredulous gasp. Did he just tell her that he was turned on by the mere sight of her wearing a sexy blindfold? Since when did she start wielding that sort of seductive power over him?

The revelation was so astounding that her brain hit a pause. Every last thought about the shopping and niche-learning experience evaporated. Only one idea remained in her head, which she blurted out, "Then should we go home now and actually use it the right way?"
