He looked interesting.
He was attractive enough. Mid twenties. He was reading Owned. Standing in front of the display in the bookstore where the new best seller was featured, he was so absorbed that he was oblivious to her approach. The bulge in his jeans told her he liked the passage.
He was in one of the early bondage/ dominance/ denial scenes, she saw. His eyes were large as they scanned the page.
"Good read?" She asked causally.
Startled, he glanced up and then flushed in embarrassment. She quickly said "No need to be embarrassed. You like what you like. Just as the rest of the human race likes what they like. So you like this?"
He nodded. "I do."
"Does it surprise you that others like it too? Enough that there are a lot of books featuring this material?" She asked.
"I guess a little." He confessed. He was looking at her now. She was ten years his senior but fit and attractive with short red hair.
He flipped the book over and looked at the author's face on the inside of the dust cover, then looked back to her in shock.
"Yes. I'm E. B. Queen. But you may call me mistress. So what is your story?"
"I'm Eric. I am a student at the U."
"Where are you from, Eric?"
"Kansas. A long way from here."
"I see that. You don't look like a city boy." He was so innocent. So perfect. She had to try it.
Adding steel to her voice she said "Attention!"
An instant he hesitated, then his arms dropped to his sides, eyes shut, lips parted. A tingle went through her from her front to her back. He knew the command from her book and responded!
"What is your major?"
He hesitated before confessing. "Actually I dropped out. My parents split up and I can't afford to continue."
Better and better!
"What WAS your major?"
"Literature."
Perfect!
"And you like my books?"
A shudder went through him.
"Yes mistress."
Damn! She was so excited she had to fight to keep her voice level.
"Eric, in every life there is a moment of decision. This is yours.
I can pay your tuition and give you an internship that will count as extra credit. Interested?"
"Yes ma'am. I mean mistress."
"Open your eyes and look at me." He did as instructed. She went for broke.
"There is a price to pay though. You will be living in an apartment I provide, and you will be under my control. I will use you to research my writing. You understand?
You won't be reading my books. You'll be living them.
Are you willing to submit to that?"
A moment he paused, then nodded. "Yes mistress."
YES!
"Put the book down and follow me."
She led him out of the store and to her waiting limousine. Taking her seat, she motioned him to sit on the floor. He did without question.
"Attention."
As soon as his eyes were closed she was texting her sister. The response was quick. Then she looked at her driver. "The clinic please."
The car was in motion in moments. She looked at her new toy. "So, are you an ass man, a leg man or a tit man?"
"I guess I like all three mistress."
"So you're just a man. Okay. Linda is driving. I want you to tell her about your favorite scene from any of my stories."
Linda smiled in the mirror as he thought a moment. "I guess my favorite is the one where the mistress has her guy on the edge of an orgasm but doesn't let him have it. I have tried to do that for myself but my willpower never lasts. I always end up getting to the point where I can't help but finish."
Linda liked her books too, and she pleased her boss greatly by asking "When you are teasing yourself, how do you go about it? What turns you on and what drives you to the point that you can't stop yourself?"
