Author's 2024 Introduction
This is a classic work of adult BDSM erotica with 19 chapters and 66,000 words. It is not for children or the faint of heart.
Submission in Seattle was initially written in 1998 during a span of about eight weeks and included many elements from my personal experience. Subsequent editing has polished the rough edges, but the original novel is intact. It was first published in 2001 on a popular, but now dormant, website that specialized in BDSM stories. Readers were asked to comment and rate the stories they read. Submission in Seattle was read about a quarter million times and was the highest rated story on that site. One reason for its popularity is that it appeals to both male and female readers.
Readers typically commented that they could not stop reading until they finished, so if you plan to read the whole novel, please clear your schedule for a few hours. You might want to have a few towels handy as well.
I published this novel on the Amazon Kindle system about 20 years ago. It didn't sell very well and I forgot about it for years. You can still find it there if you prefer to read it on your Kindle.
Since much time has passed, it may amuse the reader to spot some references to the society and technology of the late nineties.

AUTHOR'S 1998 INTRODUCTION
Most erotic stories with an SM theme are set in distant times or places so that the reader can more easily enjoy descriptions of intense sexual behavior that would be unacceptable in his or her own society. "Submission in Seattle" adds a small dash of fantasy to a very real part of modern American society, the BDSM subculture. I hope that you will find this reality-based story even more erotic than one which is totally based on fantasy.
The popularity of BDSM has exploded in recent years, spurred on by the rapid growth of the internet. The term BDSM itself was coined on the internet in the early 1990's. It is a convenient acronym that combines bondage and discipline, dominance and submission, and sadomasochism.
The creed of the modern BDSM culture is "Safe, Sane and Consensual". One might assume that erotic fiction based on this tenet would be less arousing than the usual punishment/rape/enslavement SM tales that are found in the erotica section of your local mall bookstore. "Submission in Seattle" may surprise you.
To millions of television and film viewers, the standard symbol of BDSM is the stereotypical leather-clad professional Dominatrix. In American society, female domination of males is the most visible and politically correct form of BDSM relationship. For those couples who choose to practice male domination of the female, there is no such reassuring symbol for them to follow. The majority of these couples exercise their rights as consenting adults in private, in isolation and with a justifiable fear of persecution.
As the BDSM community matures, subgroups which enjoy certain facets of BDSM play are beginning to coalesce. One group that is now asserting its right to exist is the maledom-femsub community. This novel is for them and those who are curious.
Our main character, Howard Cole, is a professional male dominant for women. As everyone in the BDSM community knows, this is highly unusual. The simple rule of supply and demand in sexual commerce prevents men from making a living in this manner. However, a small number of dominant heterosexual men have established themselves as professionals. Typically just one or two in a large city that might support scores of female pro-Dommes. If you are in need of their services, seek them out in the darker regions of the internet. You won't be disappointed.

CHAPTER ONE
Innocence is everywhere, but the honest enjoyment of perversion is rare.
On a warm, sunny Saturday afternoon, platoons of harried women in expensive cars shuttled their well-dressed children along the streets of an upper class neighborhood near Seattle, Washington. Each house concealed its unique story behind a screen of tall evergreen trees and fashionable forest landscaping. One home on a particular suburban lane had its own special energy. This energy was provided by the women who passed beyond the heavy black door into the residence of Howard Cole.
There was nothing outwardly unusual about the one story contemporary home. Three young children from nearby families played noisily within fifty feet of the conservative gray painted exterior. The pleasant open space between the large houses was shaded from the late afternoon summer sun by a canopy of eighty foot Douglas Firs. Suddenly, one of the children launched a piercing, repetitive scream in response to some injustice perpetrated by a sibling.
The occupants of the gray house, as if in another world, were blissfully unaware of the commotion outside. Insulated in the soundproof basement of his large home, Howard Cole stepped back to appraise his work. As a talented photographer, he appreciated the finer points of composition, color and lighting. He stroked his short beard for a moment, then adjusted the rolled up sleeves of his open necked black silk dress shirt. He stretched his solid, six foot frame to loosen up his shoulders and straightened his round metal framed glasses.
The warm, spacious, high ceilinged room resembled a photographer's studio. It had been, until he discovered a more compelling hobby. Unusual electronic music played from a sophisticated sound system, creating an air of mystery and erotic ritual.
Around the edges of the hardwood floor, in semi-darkness, oddly shaped pieces of furniture rested under black sheets. In the center of the room a massage table with a well padded, brown leather top rested in a pool of light. It was quite heavily constructed, with brass fittings where its thick wooden beams joined together.
Cole didn't appreciate the room as much as he did the girl. Kristina was one of his latest favorites; a true masochist who dreamed of being a slave girl. This was her fourth visit to the intimate basement dungeon. He had yet to find one girl to steal his heart forever, but he enjoyed them all for their individual qualities and varied physical attributes. The one trait they all had in common was the need for submission. To Cole, it was a priceless treasure and extremely beautiful.
Every submissive girl he met captured his attention, at least for a while. Kristina was a gifted young software designer who happened to work part time as a nude dancer. He could see it in her dancer's legs and perfect little ass. She was exhibited quite nicely at the moment, he thought. He had a talent for posing the girls in the most flattering and erotic positions. A result, he believed, of his photographic experience.
Kristina noticed his admiring gaze, then wiggled her well curved bottom to let him know she was ready. She displayed her slender nude body and fragile youth while seductively bent over the top of the waist high table. The overhead spot lights illuminated her perfectly, and she knew it. She grinned as she thought, "Krissy, you've been needing this for weeks. Trust Master Cole, he knows what you need."
She felt the tension in her arms from the soft leather cuffs that pulled her wrists toward the far end of the table. Another pair of restraints held her ankles to the sturdy, polished table legs, making her struggle a bit to touch the floor with her toes. It was another one of Cole's subtle touches that reminded her of her delicious vulnerability. "Looks like I'm going to get my money's worth tonight," she predicted silently to herself.
She listened receptively as Cole spoke in a low, hypnotic tone that penetrated deeply into her mind, "Krissy, it's time for me to enjoy you now. If you need to stop, you know how to communicate that to me. However, if you stop, that will be all for today, and you will go home knowing you didn't satisfy me. Do you understand?"
"Yes, Master Cole," she said in a dreamy voice. She looked up at him and saw a handsome forty one year old man with short dark hair. His precisely trimmed dark beard and mustache somehow made him look sophisticated and sinister at the same time. The piercing gray eyes were almost hypnotic. When she was in this delightfully submissive and sensual state, his attractiveness was very compelling. She wanted nothing more than to be close to him and give herself to him in every possible way. She closed her eyes for a minute to concentrate on the hypnotic music and she felt herself slipping into the trance-like state that she so treasured. The stresses of her high pressure life fell away one by one.
