The Dom holds me by the arm and pulls me out of the water. The abundance of air hits my lungs and a feeling of euphoria takes over. He helps me out of the athtub and I see someone standing behind me from the corner of my eyes, holding a blanket. My body shivers with cold water and a strange rush of energy and dizziness makes itself known.
t’s jarring. This feeling is like the release we feel during sex.
am trying to process so much while a thick towel wraps around my body. Dom takes a seat and pulls me onto his lap.
You did good,” He murmurs while someone dabs my hair. I turn my head and see a sub. She smiles at me.I sigh and lean into Dom’s chest. What was his name gain? Lucas?
giggle and he asks in amusement, “May I know what’s so funny?”
t feels nice being pampered after a session,” I tell him. My body is so freaking cold. But there is a strange sense of happiness looming over my head. I feel like I m high on drugs.
n the first day, I couldn’t process the idea of aftercare by someone unknown. I have held hands and cuddled men because I wanted to date them. With M… I as okay playing because we were exploring. But here, I refused sex, and I know I might not date my trainer. The idea of snuggling a new person felt off.
t’s not necessary to sexualize everything. Body needs some love after a session,” the mistress told me on the first day. “So don’t think about it. If I want to hold
ju, let me.”
s long as they are in boundaries, it is fine. Right?
Iso, I don’t want any nasty sub–drop to happen to me. Jane, Jonas‘ pet, had told me a sub–drop can occur anywhere from a few minutes to a few days after a ene. In training too they explained fatigue, sadness, anxiety, and a sense of emotional emptiness are top problems if aftercare is not given. Although it totally pends on person to person. I would rather not risk it. I already have enough problems in my life.
nd let’s admit it. Who doesn’t enjoy cuddling, talks, and reassurance?
walk into the locker room, feeling a sense of calmness and relief. Dad has given me so many responsibilities, so it’s a nice disconnect every day after the stress
office. Like playing tennis. I think to myself, in amusement.
fumble with the locker combination as I try to open it, I am a little eager to change into normal clothes, but I switch on my phone to check for any necessary nails or messages. There is a reminder for me,
inner with Noah Miller Discuss next tour and music video release.‘
y jaw ticks. M’s brother….
owadays, I don’t want to do anything with M or Miles or whatever his name is… He is probably not even at fault. It’s just me who is an overemotional fool. I lake my head and text Lena to be ready for the night. I cannot, for the love of God, go to dinner with his brother alone. Even though its business dinner.
here is a missed call from an unknown number, then a text.
nknown: “Hello, miss Selena. This is officer Beck handling your attack case. Please call me. We have some suspects for you to identify.‘
ly breath hitches. Did they catch him?
ty hands shiver as I put my phone back in the locker and pick up my clothes.
My heart is beating fast, and I try to process. That’s a good sign, at least. It will clear the air if Nikkie and Joy were behind that attack. They are claiming they had othing to do with it, I feel bad about Dad too. He is facing a challenging situation because of this.
nd Caleb?
snort. That fucker’s old deeds are making it onto the surface. Turns out his rising business skills were not dazzling after all. Way too many times, he used hady methods. I recognised the same pattern he used to take over dad’s business too. He has many projects under him from Sterling Constructions. But I know

I can take back control slowly and steadily. I need to be patient. The way media is questioning his company’s accounts, I am sure he will soon face a revenue department enquiry soon.
I pick up my clothes to change, a voice calls out.
*Sub, can I speak with you for a moment? It’s my mistress. The one in charge of my training. I turn my face to her and a feeling of apprehension creeps up my spine. Of course, mistress,” I reply, trying to keep my voice steady.
She leads me to a quiet corner of the locker room and turns to face me. “It’s only been a few days… I wanted to check in and make sure that this is truly what you want,” she asks, her eyes scanning mine.
Usually training takes much longer before we move to next step. You are splendid so far. But it’s my duty to make sure that you are really ready… for the auction. Physically and mentally.”
My heart races as I consider the question. Is this truly what I want? The problem is they cannot train me too far if I refuse to give them consent to ‘fuck‘.
She said that sex was important to bond with a Dom during training. If I don’t have one, it’s necessary to take the next step. The problem is, for the next step, I need to commit for a month. Auction is a way to find me interested people.
It is a little scary situation. I admit to myself. Not all sub–Dom relationships are full–time. Some members engage in a sub–Dom dynamic only inside the bedroom or at the club or sometimes in specific situations. While others live a full–time lifestyle. The level of commitment and involvement in the relationship depends on each couple. They decide what they are comfortable with. I personally want it part time. Also, I don’t like the idea of being a slave or being someone’s
property.
Rough sex? Yes, I like it very much.
I like bondage and impact play too. But I have only explored it a little. I need to try it more.
I am afraid What if the Dom who selectes me wants things different from me? But that’s a risk in any relationship. Right?
Yes, mistress. This is what I want. I understand the sacrifices that come with this choice, but I will make them.”
She nods, a small smile playing at the corners of her lips. “I’m glad to hear that,” she says. “I value your dedication and I hope you are collared by someone who values you equally. Remember, if you ever have any doubts or concerns, you can always come to me.”
walk out of the barn and into the car where Raylan is waiting to drive me home.
All good?” he asks, and I nod.
The drive home is mostly quiet. When we enter the apartment, he reminds me, “I remember you have a business dinner tonight?”
Yea.. I will be ready in an hour,”
need a warm shower before that. All those warm blankets did little to remove the ice cold shivers from my body. During training, most subs stay at the barn or the night, because they have their partners or Doms with them. I chose to keep the hours minimum. No point sleeping alone at night when I know I don’t Lave anyone. My trainers have their own life after all.
We walk into our rooms. After bath, I come to the living room. Lena is sitting on the couch.
Hey. She says in her chirpy voice.
‘Hey!‘ I sigh as I slump onto the sofa next to her.
“How was the evening?” the drawls. Did they tie your legs apart and fuck you with a dick on stick today?”
My cheek burns and I smack her arm
“We have a man in the house Don’t make such obscene comments for Fuck’s sake,” I whisper shout at her.
She rolls her eyes. Let the man know that women can be wild sometimes.”
“I am sure he has plenty of action in his life,” I mutter, but it makes me wonder.
Doesn’t Raylan miss his family or girlfriend?
‘Anyway.. I was wondering if you would come with me-

“NO” Lena cuts me in the middle
I frown at sudden interruption.
already have plans with my girl friends. A sleepover to be exact,” she adds
“Nooon, I whine I thought I was your girlfriend!”
She rolls her eyes. “Do your work by yourself. You are a big girl.”
“Okay, no problem. I’ll just go alone.” I make a face and tell her. Honestly, she has been pulling too much of my weight lately.
“What should I wear?” I ask Lena across the hall, and she makes her way inside my room with a dress in her arms.
I frown.
“What is this?”
It’s a silk purple dress.
Trs. Wow. Lena, it’s not a dinner date. It’s a business dinner.”
I object, but hold the dress in my hands, anyway. It’s too beautiful to not touch.
“When did you buy it?” I shoot another question before she can answer.
I didn’t buy it. Mr Miller has sent it.”
I blink.
Noah? Why would he send me a freaking dress?” she shrugs.
7 guess he likes you… I told you in New York.. I have an inkling that he likes you.”
I shake my head I have no intention of shagging both brothers.
I don’t want to go on a date with him. It was a business date, nothing else,” I reply, turning my face away from her.
Ever since I came back from the trip, Lena has been constantly on my back asking what happened. I told her Nothing happened.
what am I supposed to tell her.
I got a muni heart break where things weren’t supposed to get serious? The more I think about it, the more embarrassed I feel.
barely met him a few times. Then how did it happen? Was he slowly creeping into my heart when he used to pull silly pranks on me from a different city?
Life was much simpler a month ago.
Don’t worry about that I think he wants to show you off.” Lena’s words break my chain of thoughts.
I make a face. “Show me off to who?‘
‘Duh media.if you are a big name have you seen how much coverage you are getting nowadays…”
I wear the dress and silk falls onto my skin softly.
Lena expertly applies makeup to my face as I sit in front of the mirror while Raylan waits patiently in the living room.
“I sometimes feel bad about him,” I tell Lena.
*All done!* Lena exclaims and adds, “It’s his job. Don’t worry about it. Once this mess is resolved, he will be gone from our lives.”
I stand up, taking one last look at my reflection. Lena did a splendid job.

Raylan drops me off at the restaurant.
Tuck, I mutter when I see a swarm of paparazzi around the restaurant. Is it because Noah is here before me?
He chuckles and shakes his head. “Get used to it.”
“Is it a good or a bad thing for my security?”
He meets my eyes and says in a serious expression, “A bit of both.”
I nod and step out of my car. They clicked away as I make my way towards the entrance of the restaurant, trying to keep a smile on my face.
Once inside, my eyes scan the beautiful interior design in awe. The decor is truly breathtaking. The chandeliers hanging from the ceiling sparkled like fiamonds, casting a warm, golden glow over the entire room.
This is exciting. A fancy restaurant would be a nice investment.
Then I snort internally. Ever since I started getting money, I want to try a little–bit of everything.
My financial counselor always warns me, “Careless investment is a nice way to lose money. Be careful.”
The hostess greets me with a warm smile and leads me to my table. The soft music playing in the background and the gentle chatter of the other diners has reated a pleasant, relaxing atmosphere.
Jusiness meeting or not. It will be a night to remember.
My steps falter as I catch sight of a familiar figure sitting with his back towards me. I blink.
um I hallucinating?
t’s not Noah, but Miles, who is waiting for me.
