TITLE: CAT AND MOUSE AUTHOR: BGM RATING: NC-17 (for some sexually-explicit contents) PAIRING: Garak/Bashir --------------------------------------------------------- "You like games, don't you Garak?" asked Julian tauntingly, caressing the Cardassian's cheeks as he moved around the back. Sitting on the edge of the bed, Garak swallowed nervously. "Depending on the game and the players involved, I might," he answered cautiously, his eyes moving to follow Julian as he reversed course around the front. Everything had seemed so simple: move their weekly lunch to Julian's quarters. Nothing unusual in itself, until he'd discovered just what Julian was planning to eat. A sheer bolt of pleasure had shot through the Cardassian's being as he realized he'd soon have the sweet-looking Human for himself. A thousand fantasies had danced in his mind as he watched Julian pulling him toward the bed, seductively informing him that he'd wanted him for such a long time. Too dizzy with the joy of knowing Julian wanted this as well, Garak had blindly followed the young man's instructions; sitting down at the edge of the bed and not uttering a word unless asked to. *You fool; you just got pulled into the sneakiest game of all,* Garak thought with some irony, his attention snapped into attention as Julian spoke. "Oh I think you might like this game Garak," smiled Julian impishly. In the next few seconds the young man had roughly pushed Garak back against the bed, making the Cardassian land on his back with a grunt. He moved to get up, opened his mouth to protest Julian's shove, but ended up doing neither as the young man straddled his waist. Bearing his full weight to pin the tailor down, Julian smiled sweetly and pulled a pair of soft leather cuffs from a concealed pocket. He leaned over the tailor's form to reach his wrists and added, "See, this is where I pay you back for all the nasty tricks you pulled on me during lunch ..." "What ... what are you talking about?" Garak breathed, appalled that he was letting the doctor control him like this. When both his wrists were securely bound to the headboard, Julian leaned back and took comfortable seat just before the tailor's stirring sex. "Oh don't play coy," cooed the young man, winking playfully. "It doesn't suit you my dear. Comfortable?" he queried, rubbing enticingly against the tailor's crotch. Hissing at the sensual touch, Garak closed his eyes and rocked his hips to intensify the contact. For a moment it seemed the torture would go on forever, but all at once the caress was gone and the Cardassian groaned in annoyance. "Doctor," he lamented, his darkened blue eyes opening to search the reason for the sudden withdrawal. Julian was at the side of the bed, toying merrily with the lapels of his uniform. "Oh I hope you're not expecting to get off that easily," mocked Julian, tapping gleefully on the tailor's arm. "We have a long night ahead," he added huskily, sloping forward to let his lips meet with Garak's. "And I'll teach you to play the cat with me." "Cat?" blinked Garak. "What does a cat have to do with me?" "Oh everything my dear," laughed the young man, lifting himself to his feet. "Crafty," he hissed, moving away from the bed and rocking his hips seductively. "Cunning," he moaned, curbing his path to the end of the bed. He paused at the foot, legs parted and hands leaning over the hard Cardassian mattress. "Ssssly," he hissed, licking his lips sensuously. Garak moaned and let his head fall back against the pillow, his breathing coming in huge pants. "Whatever I've done, it doesn't deserve this," he lamented, peeking at what Julian was doing now. He gasped as he studied the young man, now moving to a phantom beat, writhing enticingly as he began sliding the clasp down the front of his uniform. With a quirk in his smile, he turned to the ceiling and said, "Computer, play Undress Me, 20th century Terran." A loud beat wafted through the quarters, a sensual cadence providing the rhythm Julian needed. Bound, helpless, Garak was forced to watch without touching, constrained to drool without able to do anything about it. "...But be cautious, or I'll become ravenous," Julian mouthed, sliding the uniform down to his waist, his hips still moving as he divested himself of the lavender shirt. A dark inviting chest panted with the enthusiastic motions, dark nipples just begging for Garak to nibble and suck at them. Soon the Cardassian was nursing a very hard, and very insistent erection as Julian went on with his lascivious dance. "Julian," Garak cried, yanking at his bonds for real. "Don't do this to me!" Garak's plea went unheeded as Julian lost himself in the music, sweat trickling his brow as he offered the Cardassian a rare spectacle indeed. Not many got to know Julian the Uninhibited. Finally he climbed the bed, his ass swaying in the air as he languidly moved to the music, now subdued as the singer sang softly. He moved over Garak's form, his own covered erection brushing against the tailor's as he writhed over Garak, his lips curved in a small evil grin as he discovered just how much he was stimulating his Cardassian friend. "Remember me telling you about catsss," hissed Julian, gyrating every part of his body in feline grace. Garak was hardly breathing now. "Yes ..." "Well I can be cunning, crafty and sssly too Garak," he crooned, his impossibly long neck twisting to the side as he lapped carefully at Garak's jaw. The tailor bucked his hips, crying out with the intensity of Julian's touch. Julian pulled back and grinned broadly. "But as all catsss," he purred. "I also have claws." He pulled back even further until he had regained his seat against Garak's quite hardened crotch. "I don't like being teased," he said conversationally as he reached for the night stand. When his hand came into view, his fingers were draped with a soft raven cloth. "And I usually repay my tormentors very generously ..." he grinned, pressing the cloth against Garak's eyes and shielding those lecherous blue eyes. Garak moaned piteously, using Julian's position to stimulate his aching fire. Around him the singer was keening, "O _come_ on! ..." *I wish I were,* Garak silently added, waiting impatiently for Julian to make his move. At last his tunic was carefully undone by Julian's slender fingers, the brushes against his cool skin unbearably sweet. Then a long pause during which Garak began to squirm against his bonds, even the sheets beneath him stimulating him in silent betrayal. Then something cold was being pressed against his chest, and Garak tried to recoil from it. "Relax," whispered Julian. The icy touch trailed downward, pausing to circle around his erect nipples, suddenly drawing illicit moans and groans from their host. Trickles of waters snaked away from the ice, sliding in different directions all over Garak's chest. The ice then coasted the ridges lining his torso, causing a sinking feeling where it passed over the middle of his chest. "Julian," moaned the Cardassian, arching his back as he sought stimulation a little more downward. "Ssh," Julian hissed, and before Garak thought of disobeying him, the Cardassian cried out as he felt Julian's mouth following each little path of moisture on his chest. The warm human tongue roved with lethargic speed over his skin, sending a thousand erotic sensations coursing through Garak's body. Still it was not enough, and Garak pressed his hips upward. "Julian!" he cried, beyond simply frustrated. "Julian, I need you now, I can't bear it." "You don't like this?" he whispered, sweetening the offer by biting down on a more susceptible scale. "Yes," managed Garak, gritting his teeth as he found himself torn between intolerable agony and ecstatic bliss. "But I want you," he hissed. "Now," he moaned. "If you can wait just a little while longer, I'll see what I can do," he said huskily, a wink almost visible in his voice. "I can't wait!" cried Garak, bucking against his restraints once more. "Ssh my love," soothed the young man, moving around the quarters. Garak followed the sounds, trying very hard to determine what exactly the doctor was preparing. Finally the bed undulated and Garak gasped as his pants were tugged off. Quickly the cool touch of a gel followed, permeating his opening. Garak was thus allowed to think about the matter for three seconds before his legs were swung up and hot steel plunged into his awaiting cleft. The blindfold was torn off and Garak was rewarded with an irresistible picture; Julian, naked, pumping hard against him as he leaned forward to cover Garak's body with his own. "Julian," he said his name with all the urgency of a desperate man. "Yes Julian," he hissed, his need to touch the young man stronger than the leather bonds constraining his wrists; with a loud tearing which both never heard, Garak flung his arms around Julian's back, pressing the young man tightly against him as he pumped his seed into the tailor, crying out the Cardassian's name with his magnificent voice. Their bellies quickly became slick and hot with the tailor's own release, triggered by all the wonderful sensations infiltrating his body. "Oh yes Julian," he moaned, descended the incredible peak Julian had pushed him to climb. "Yes ..." "Hmmm," Julian sighed, closing his eyes as he collapsed satedly against the smooth Cardassian chest. "We should play this game more often." "Can I be the cat next time?" queried Garak, and both softly laughed before allowing their conscience to drift away toward sleep. THE END
