I said farewell to my now former workmates. I jumped into my car and headed to Baxter Corporation. My mind was buzzing with questions about my future. Pulling into the designated permanent parking spot, it dawned on me how quickly everything was escalating since I accepted Master's collar. I signed into the building and was provided with my security pass. The receptionist directed me to take the elevator to the twentieth...

The sun beat down like a heavy golden orb in a cloudless sky, baking the air until it felt thick and stifling. Craving relief, I grabbed a towel, a cold drink and my sunglasses, and headed to the beach to cool off in the ocean. After parking with a view of the rolling blue waves, I stepped out into a refreshing breeze. The sea sparkled as if scattered with diamonds. Wandering aimlessly down the beach until the crowds fade...

Master phoned on the Tuesday. We had a pleasant but short conversation. My heart was pounding as always. He reminded me about our date for Friday night, seven o'clock pick-up. A white cardboard box arrived Wednesday afternoon. I excitedly opened the box, my eyes aghast at the sight. I didn't see the usual beautiful gown. Instead, I saw a skimpy, micro-mini leather skirt, lace-topped thigh-high stockings, a tiny lace g-str...

I was enjoying my walk in the park when a vibrant red scarf tore past me in the breeze. I caught it in mid-air, just as a strikingly handsome man halted in front of me, breathless. He was relieved I stopped the runaway scarf. "It's a gift for my mother... thank you for saving it," he rasped, his eyes looking into mine, deep and disarming. A casual chat by the lake quickly developed into something far more magnetic. We sha...

Master called me the next day. Just his voice sent tremors through my body. He was calling to arrange a dinner for Friday evening. "Dress elegantly," he requested, his tone smooth and commanding. After taking my address, he gave me a precise pickup time and hung up, leaving my heart pounding in my chest. I spent Wednesday afternoon dreading a trip to the boutiques, my wardrobe severely lacking the required attire. When I...

The body keeps a feverish count of days, and old, heavy skin it longs to shed. It cries for touch in quiet, desperate ways, to fill the hollowed spaces in the bed. We call it romance, call it a sizzling fire, but sex is just the language of love. It's a burning flame of desire. A furious scratching, and a deep need to touch a body, a craving of the soul, that can leave grief behind. There is a loneliness that walks throug...

I am invited to a party by a work colleague. I know nobody, so I was feeling uncomfortable. Out of the corner of my eye, I see a tall gentleman with a gorgeous woman by his side. He seems disinterested in the woman as they walked around. Our eyes meet. It makes me shudder. My thoughts begin to wander as our eyes linger. I wonder if he might be interested in me. The couple moves to another room. The party no longer holds m...
