“I feel like I’m open to trying a lot of different things. I know a lot of people are content with spankings and bondage, but it’s about more than that for me. I crave the domination, the unknown. There are just so many things I want to try. When I walked around the demos last night, I honestly didn’t know what to pick because I wanted to check out pretty much all of it.”

“I love when someone is as willing to try new things as you are. It’s so much easier to broaden

your horizons. Have you ever had a Dom or have you just explored with people you date?”

“No, I’ve never had an actual Dom. You would be the first.”

“Okay, well here are my expectations of any sub I take on. In any sort of play, whether in the club or elsewhere, I expect total submission. I want you to trust that I will both recognize when you’ve had enough and respect the limits you set forward. I will sometimes ask you to do a task in your day-to-day life, but it would never be anything extreme or harmful. I am not into any sort of humiliation or degradation. As with anything else, you always have the right to refuse. You have the power to decide.

“It’s my job as a Dom to help you explore your boundaries and push you to open more, but I will never force you past them. This sort of relationship has the potential to be amazing for both partners, but communication is key. If you hate something or need something to stop, you have to tell me. Does that all make sense?”

“Yes, it does.”

“And is it something you would like to pursue with me?”

“Absolutely,” she grinned.

“Perfect. Now, just one more question. How do you feel about public play?”

“Do you mean at the club?”

“Well, in terms of the club, would you want to do scenes behind the windows or upstairs in the main play area?”

“You know, a couple of days ago, I wouldn’t have been too sure, but now? I’d definitely be willing. It sounds like you were talking about something else as well.”

“I was. I tend to be a bit of an exhibitionist. Sometimes, I might initiate a little public play.”

“I would be willing to try it.”

“That’s all I’d ever ask. Your date might have wound up being an ass, but I sure am glad that he brought you to the club.”

“So am I,” she smirked.

We spent hours talking before I finally put her in an uber home. I locked up the restaurant, thrilled with how the night had ended.

JASON

? ?? It’s my show, baby, do what I say… ???

“Hey, Sasha,” I said, walking into the club.

“Hey, handsome. I hear you had a good night with Leah last night.”

“Oh God. Girl talk is going to be a killer for me, isn’t it?”

“Well, I suppose you could try ordering her not to talk to me about you guys, but I think we both know how well that would go over,” she chuckled. “Are you working today after the staff meeting?”

“No, I’m just here for the meeting and then I think I might spend a little time deciding what I’ll be trying with Leah tonight. I need to spend some time going over my implements with her.”

“That’s good for about a week. I think you two are a good match, Jason. She’s not nearly as high maintenance as Cindi was. I couldn’t believe that you used her for your demo. I thought you were taking a step back?”

“Lysta was supposed to do it, but she came down with the flu. Cindi was the only one around.”

“Fuck, Jason. You could’ve asked me to step in! I could have played sub for the purposes of the demo.”

“Bullshit,” I laughed. “You couldn’t be submissive if your life depended on it.”

“Yeah, you’re probably right,” she chuckled.
