The Plume: The Second Anthology
dispenser. “Not long at all. It’s the emotional
connection that makes it all work.” She lathered the soap in her
hands, then flicked a look at Louise. “Do you feel ours?”
    Louise nodded, shy with the admission.
    Anna reached out to spread the lather on
Louise’s breasts. At first her touch was light as a feather, her
fingertips sliding over Louise’s skin. Then she curved her hands
around Louise’s breasts, massaging them, teasing the nipples. She
slid her hands over Louise, working up a lather as she awakened
Louise’s desire one more time.
    She flicked a look at Louise, then eased her
hand between Louise’s legs. She caressed her labia and then her
clitoris, her fingers working with a persistence that made Louise’s
heart pound.
    “I wanted you from the first,” Anna said
quietly. “But I wanted you alone.”
    “Yes.”
    “I like that you snuck in.”
    “I’ll never manage it again.” Louise leaned
back against the wall, hypnotized by Anna’s sure touch. She parted
her legs, which made Anna smile.
    “I like people who go after what they want,”
Anna said, then leaned against Louise and kissed her. Those fingers
continued to torment her, driving Louise wild with their incessant
demand.
    Her tongue did the same.
    In one way, Louise was surprised to be kissed
so passionately by a woman.
    In another, she knew that this was exactly
what she’d always been waiting for. It had been Anna’s presence
that had thrilled her the most, and now Anna’s kiss made her feel
that she would only be satisfied this time.
    But she could participate. She speared her
fingers through Anna’s short hair, deepening their kiss. She tasted
Anna’s surprise, felt her chuckle, then Anna rubbed her breasts
against the lather on Louise’s. Her nipples were hard and when they
grazed Louise’s skin, Louise felt electrified. Her fingers worked,
but Louise didn’t want to come just yet.
    She wanted to share.
    She spun them around, trapping Anna against
the tiled wall instead, then dropped to her knees. The hot water
showered down upon them as Louise spread Anna’s thighs with her
hands. She bent and ate Anna, at first gently and then with
increasing force. She flicked her tongue against her wet cunt, she
dragged her teeth against Anna’s hard clitoris, she sucked and she
nibbled and she pushed her fingers inside Anna’s hot snatch.
    Anna moaned and bucked her hips, her clitoris
getting harder with every passing second. Her hands were knotted in
Louise’s hair, holding her close and holding fast. When Anna
stiffened and cried out in pleasure, Louise felt almost as much
pleasure inw what she’d done. When Anna reached for her and kissed
her deeply, some last knot of resistance unfurled in Louise.
    This was what she had been missing in her
life.
    Maybe meeting Anna was the reason she’d even
been able to sneak into the Plume.
    “Let’s get out of here,” Anna whispered
moments later, urgency in her tone. She was soaked and flushed, the
pink tips of her hair in her eyes, but she looked radiant. Louise
wanted to eat her again.
    With jam. And walnuts.
    “Let’s go somewhere other than the Plume,”
Anna said, taking Louise’s silence for uncertainty. She ran her
hands over Louise with a proprietary ease that felt right. “Let’s
make coffee and lie around naked and have sex when we want to.”
    “Jam and walnuts.”
    Anna laughed. “I’m game if you are.”
    Louise smiled before she had a thought. “Is
it allowed for members to meet outside?”
    “No.” Anna shrugged. “But my shift is over.
I’m off the clock and I don’t care what they do.” She pivoted and
scrubbed herself clean, the change in her tone and manner almost
dismissive.
    Of the Plume?
    Or of Louise?
    “But what happens if you get caught?”
    Anna shrugged. “Maybe they’ll punish me. I
hear the Count is going to set up a manor house with a full staff
of slave maids.” She winked at Louise, evidently enamored of the
idea.
    That wasn’t what
