All participants in the story are over the age of 18. This is intended for those who like BDSM stories centered around DDlg. This is NOT a tale of incest!
**Thank you guys for all the support you have given me since the first chapter was posted. I am working on multiple short stories at the moment, and hope you enjoy those as well.

I briskly walked to my front door, taking a deep breath in I began knocking. I wished Gabriel could be by my side, but I understood if my parents knew who he was they would try to destroy his career. It didn't matter that I was of age, or consenting or even that he wasn't and never would be my teacher.
My mother threw open the door and pulled me into a tight hug. When she finally let me go I could see her eyes were puffy and red. It was a sign that I knew meant she had been crying all night, and probably that morning too.
It really did pain me to know she was hurting, but unlike all the other times I wasn't going to give into what she wanted.
"Hello, mother."
"Darling we've been worried sick..."
She took a pause then continued,
"But you're home now so everything's ok."
Slowly making my way into the foyer I replied: "no it's not."
When I walked into the living room I saw my father awaiting my arrival on the couch. My mother soon joined his side. Before either of them could justify their actions I broke the silence.
"I'm moving out."
My statement was short and precise.
A dark chuckle filled the room.
"Oh, really Elizabeth and where the hell will you go?"
I straightened my posture staring my father down, he needed to know I wouldn't take this anymore.
"It doesn't matter to you anymore, I am no longer your property."
My mother interjected trying to calm the already tense situation.
"What about school honey... not to mention college."
Agreeing with my mother my father responded.
"You leave and we will cut you off."
"I know, that's what I'm counting on." I retorted back.
It was at that comment that my mother must have realized I was speaking truth.
"Elizabeth you CAN'T... you're still a child... my child."
I took a shaky breath in.
"I can and I will mother."
"You both proved to me last night of what you were capable of and that is not something I will tolerate for another 8 months."
Taking a step forward drawing strength from thoughts of Gabriel I continued.
"I will continue my schooling and take care of college on my own."
"You will no longer have to help provide for my schooling now or in the future."
Focusing my gaze on my mother now I softened my eyes.
"I love you both but I can't do this anymore, I'm not a child mother."
My dad stood up and I stumbled back in fear.
"Elizabeth you're not going anywhere!" he yelled out.
Thinking of my escape route just in case I prepared myself for an altercation, if it came down to it I would be prepared. I knew my purse was hanging in the foyer closet, in it I had my keys, wallet school ids etc.
"Yes I can father and I am." "You can do this the hard way or the easy way."
I knew I had to play a risky card at that moment. My father scoffed at my statement.
"Little girl the only way you're going to be listening to is my way!"
I took a deep breath in the name little girl made me cringe, it only held endearment or power when Gideon used it.
"You can do this the easy way by giving me all my legal documents right now... or the hard way."
I clenched my fists pausing before continuing.
"The hard way involves me getting the police and lawyers involved."
I raised my finger before my father could interject.
"Before you say I can't remember I am 18 and am technically legally allowed access to my documents."
"If requested you are not allowed to hold them from me."
I knew bringing up law enforcement would force at least my father to cooperate. He would do anything to keep their name in a high stature. If word his own daughter was taking them to court became known he would practically die of humiliation.
This time it was my father who stumbled back.
My mother gasped, "ELIZABETH how dare you."
Rolling my eyes I glared at her then at my father.
"Guess all those legal lectures you gave me paid off huh father?"
My question was rhetorical and I was now letting my anger take over, the timid girl they were used to was gone.
My father stormed off and I stood there standing my ground as my mother started to weep. I forced myself to look away not wanting to cave in.
When my father emerged again he was carrying a folder with my name on it. As he came closer and closer I felt my heart start to beat faster and faster.
Handing over the folder I reached out for it.
"Make no mistake, Elizabeth, you WILL fail out there on your own, and it won't be so easy for you to come back."
I pulled the folder from my father's tight grip matching his evenly hot gaze.
"I guess I will have to prove you wrong and don't worry I won't be coming back.
My mother tried to run to me but my father stopped her as I turned around and headed toward the front door. I grabbed my purse from the closet then walked out seeing Gabriel in the driver's seat of his Lexus.
I ran to his car needing to be near him, he opened my door from the inside and I slid in.
Monday at school was going to be a crazy one, no doubt with all the things I would have to handle. Between paperwork, address rerouting, ordering of new class books and speaking with my teachers I knew Monday was going to be the second hardest day.
But today had been the hardest and I had tackled it with courage. With Gabriel next to me I would be able to tackle that day as well.
