Although this is written in the first person, this story is completely fictitious.
**********************
I consider myself lucky. We live in such a fast paced society now, that often people find themselves overworked and overwhelmed just to get by. I have found myself in a situation where I not only live my job, but I love my job.
I live the life of, in lack of a better name, a professional dominant. Yes, people approach me, not to mention pay me, to exert control over their life. My job really isn't different from any others. I like to often consider myself a "behavior control consultant."
Don't get me wrong, I still hold a conventional job as a sales executive for a medical supply company. It is enjoyable and pays the bills. But for some reason, it truly is not satisfying. Each time I got a client, the only people that serve to benefit were the stockholders. This is frustrating. At the ripe age of 32, I was already burnt out at my job.
I was soon introduced into the world of BDSM about 5 years ago. I had been dating a woman who was a few years younger than I was. She was a very attractive young lady, who was a total sexual being. She loved to have sex any time of the day and was always interested in experimenting and pushing her limits. I would not really consider our relationship to be a committed dominant and slave. But the feeling of power and control was definitely enlightening.
While the relationship did not last, the experience was extremely therapeutic. It did help me realize that being a dominant can help fulfill my "dark and private" fantasies. From that point, I decided to see if I could develop my hobby into a second profession.
I won't bore you with the details of how I started up my client list, but it was one of the best investments I have ever made. My in home dungeon started off pretty basic with a homemade torture chair with arm and chest straps in my basement. Since then, the dungeon and my collection of toys have grown along with my client list. Now my basement dungeon has a St. Andrews Cross, a standing cage, and a few other restraint and control contraptions that I had custom made.
Many may wonder how I was able to afford all of these upgrades within such a short amount of time. Well, I basically attribute it to marketing strategy. A significant number of the clients that serve a female dominatrix comes from the corporate executive level. Many men who work as corporate executives are busy controlling the bottom line all day and fantasize about being controlled at home. I soon found out, that many women who work in positions of power and influence also have the same fantasy.
One of my favorite clients is Alex. She is a high school physics teacher and fairly active member of her community. I had a session with a close friend of hers, Diane. Apparently, Diane had enjoyed out time together that she recommended that Alex contact me for a meeting.
The day that the two of us met, she agreed to visit me after she got off of work at 4:00 pm on a Thursday. Alex called me twenty minutes before she was supposed to arrive. She called to tell me that she was able to leave school early and was two blocks from my house. Needless to say, I was pleased. It is always nice to have a prompt submissive.
After hanging up, I got up and opened the door until she arrived. Alex pulled up in a relatively new Mercedes Benz. I was quite impressed. She was dressed fairly conservatively in a white blouse and beige skirt. She was wearing a pair of brown two-inch heels with white nylons. Alex is a very attractive woman. I could not help but wonder how her students were able to concentrate on what she was trying to teach them. I could tell from the moment that I first saw her that this was going to be a lot of fun.
She walked around her car and up the stairs to my home. There was an air of confidence in her stride as she walked. As she came closer, I could tell that there was a look of nervousness in her eyes. Alex was about to embark on an experience and lifestyle that would both arouse and scare her at the same time.
"Hi, you must be Alex," I said in a friendly and kind tone. I always approach a new client in the same manner, as it is necessary for me to develop a bond and a certain level of trust between the two of us.
"Yes, and...are you Dante," she asked very cautiously.
"Yes I am," I said as I welcomed her into the living room of my home.
Once inside, I walked beside her as we both sat down in the living room. Alex sat down on the couch and I sat down on the recliner that faced directly at her. She was visibly nervous.
"Can I offer you a drink," I asked. "Would you like a soda, coffee, water, tea?"
"Uh, yes," she replied. "Can I have a cup of coffee?"
"Sure, not a problem."
I stood up and walked into the kitchen. Me, being the caffeine addict already had a full pot of coffee ready. I was still within an ear shot of the living room.
"Cream and sugar," I asked.
"Yes," she answered.
I took the creamer out of the refrigerator and sugar out of the cabinet to place next to the coffee cup that I had already placed on a tray. I took the tray out to find Alex in the same seated position as I had left her. I sat down directly in front of her.
"So, tell me about yourself," I asked as I put the tray down.
"Well, I am 37 years old and work as a high school physics teacher," she answered. "I am married and have two teenage kids. I don't have very many hobbies, outside of being a member of a few community groups."
"So basically, you live the life of a typical middle class wife and mother," I said.
"Yes, if you want to call it that," she said with a slight laugh.
"Do you and your husband experiment with bondage or anything like that," I asked candidly.
"No, not really," Alex replied. "Our lives are just so busy, that..."
"That what?"
"Well, I am fairly active in the community. I am president of the homeowners association, and am the faculty representative on the PTA. My husband is busy with his medical practice, so there is really little time for us to spend together."
"Medical practice, heh?"
"Yes, my husband is a doctor."
"Very interesting."
Alex leaned back slightly and crossed her legs in front of me. She was still a little nervous.
"How rude of me," I said. " We haven't talked about me and my interest and experience. My apologies."
A small smile came across her face.
