WHEN THE RAIN STOPS- Scrutinized [TANNER x LUNA] 2 IN 1

The Finally Pt. 1 1/2

|LUNA|

I was out of breath, my butt was red and my back was a little scratched up. My neck had love bites and hickeys trailing down it to my chest and I was exhausted. Tanner on the other hand wasn't as he gently pet my hair. "There there, I'll let you rest after I clean you." "How-the hell-are you not tired?" I asked through pants. He shrugged. "I guess having a good time doesn't wear me out." I softy smiled and kissed his cheek before laying my head down on his shoulder. But Tanner wanted more. Lifting my head to actually kiss my lips. "I love you." He whispered. "I love you too." I whispered back.

In the morning I woke up with the sun in my face. I wanted to sleep naked so that's what I did. On my stomach, holding the pillow close to my head and messy hair decorating the sheets like snow. "Tanner?" I turned my head to the other side to see him getting dressed. "Good morning dove." I hummed a giggle. "Good morning my love." He came closer and sat next to me. Massaging my hair. "Are you excited?" "For what?" "Christmas." I smiled and let him talk. "We're gonna play games, watch movies, have dinner and to top it all off we're gonna watch fireworks! Doesn't that sound like fun?" I hummed a yes and before I knew it I was getting dressed in a casual dress Tanner picked out for me. It might've been Christmas but it was still warm enough for me to wear a dress. And this one was white and angelic. I don't know why but Tanner always dressed me up like this when he got the chance. Maybe it was because he liked the thought of me being pure? Not in that way but personality wise? I shrugged the question off and dusted off the dress. Walking back to the room when I finished. I heard a whistle. "Don't you look lovely?" His footsteps became closer and he bent a little to see me face to face. "10/10 I say." I smiled. "You should, you're the one who chose it." I patted his cheek before going over to put on the heels he wanted me to wear.

"What do you say to a walk around the woods Luna?" He put his hand on my shoulder. "It'll be good to get your legs moving. We wouldn't want everyone to know what you did last night right?" grinned and stood up. "Of course not love." After hearing that he turned and grabbed my hand to leave the room. Stopping with one sentence. "Not after I carried your weight." He swooshed a turn around. "What was that?" "Nothing!" "No, you definitely said something." "It was a joke!" I laughed while being lifted from under my arms and tossed over his shoulder. "You still said it so.. it will be fine if we're a little late." He walked down the stairs, and next thing I know I'm thrown down to the kitchen table. My dress being unzipped to expose my upper back. I heard a shing and felt kisses on my back while he leaned down on me. "Little cuts won't hurt right? After all it's not hitting any vital organs. And just hitting the skin.." I felt a little sting and my lips let out a groan. My toes curled on his pant leg but soon enough he was licking up the blood. Once the cut didn't have anymore blood to offer he went for another slit. Careful not to leave any scars. My body squirmed but he restrained the movement. "I wouldn't recommend doing that, who knows if this knife might slip and hit something essential." I stopped and felt his slurp the blood up, his hand roaming my waist. But once I started getting comfortable with the pain he chuckled: "don't be getting comfortable on me now, I haven't finished yet. And what's the punishment without unpleasure or discomfort?" He put the knife down on the table and got up. "Don't move." He walked away from the table as I stayed put. My feet getting tired of being on the tips. But the feeling of relief returned when his shoes came back to support them. "Mind answering something for me Luna?" "Hm?.." "Who got tired first last night? I have the disinfectant here and if you answer honestly I won't pour it on your bare back. Without a cloth." "Me!... i did." I answered quickly cause I knew what brand he was using. Dolor. A painful medical alcohol that disinfects cuts without fault. He bent down closer to my ear. "Say it again moonshine." "..me." He moved my hair to behind my ear. "Good girl." lifting me to sit on the table while he dabbed my back with the cloth. "Hey Tanner.." "yes?" "I heard a noise last night... before the 5 hours. It was faint but-." "It was probably a creek." "No-. I mean, it sounded like a voice." "Who's voice?" "..Eugene's.." he stopped the tapping and put the towel down. He sighed while I kept my stare ahead. His hand went to the side of my back. Zipping up my dress slowly. "What did he say?" "Just my name-... but I have to ask, is-. Are, you holding Eugen-." "Why would I waste my time kidnapping someone like that? I'm not that desperate for food."
