Lust had been the first emotion Charlotte felt when she met Dylan. They'd connected via a dating app, not usually a good place to meet people let alone find a relationship that involved an element of kink. But, this time, the algorithm had worked.
Dylan had immediately ticked her boxes, both physically (strong, broad-shouldered, veiny hands, thick hair, bright eyes and an ever-ready smile) and emotionally (kind, considerate, compassionate towards the oppressed, and a good listener). He was funny and fuckable. It took Charlotte considerable restraint to not drop her knickers, bend over and invite him to take her there and then in a dark corner of the bar.
"What is it that you enjoy about submission?" Dylan had asked, wrenching her from the first date fuck fantasy.
"Hmm, good question," she paused to think for a few seconds. "I like the total surrender, not having to think about what will be done. I've a lot of responsibility in my life and so, during submission, I enjoy being told what to do, being put at the whims of whatever my Dom wishes to do with me."
"Oof, that's a good answer," Dylan said, immediately aroused.
"And what do you enjoy about being a Dom?"
"Having a beautiful naked woman do wonderful things for me," he joked. ""But if you want a longer answer: I, too, have a busy life full of responsibilities, but they're often vague responsibilities. When it comes to dominating someone, everything seems much easier. I know how to position someone just so in order to bring about greater pleasure for us both. I can place a knot in the rope in just the right place to bring them either discomfort or delight. I have a willing muse to help me fulfil my fantasies, and I really like the simple psychology of them giving themselves to me. My sub could be doing nothing more than standing there naked and the power of that moment could be all we need to get us both off. And then there's the intimacy of aftercare. I'm sorry, that was a long answer, but being a Dom is such a core part of me."
Charlotte had tried not to fall in love immediately. But Dylan was exactly the sort of man she needed in her life. Luckily for her he had agreed that the date had gone well and they arranged a second date, after which Charlotte invited him home.
The couple marked the anniversary of that first date by going to an expensive restaurant and staying at a hotel which offered views of the city from their room. Dylan stripped his girlfriend naked and stood her at that window. She was on display for whoever may be working on the top floors of the office block across the street. Charlotte thrilled at this, at how Dylan loved to show her off. He was so proud to have her as his sub.
That night they stayed awake until dawn coloured the sky. There had been rope, toys, floggers and handcuffs. Charlotte had been moulded into more positions than even she knew it was possible to bend her into. Dylan now knew her body so well. He knew how to cause just the right amount of discomfort, he knew when to reward her and when to punish her. He knew that his delectable cock was the greatest reward of all.

"That's a violation of my privacy."
Dylan was quietly raging. He'd just discovered that Charlotte had uploaded a photo of them both naked to the internet. It was her favourite photo; it showed off his muscular legs and his big strong arms in which he tightly held Charlotte. You couldn't see his cock, you could easily make out her ass.
"I'm sorry, I just really like how we look together in that photo," Charlotte quietly replied. "You look so fucking hot."
She had uploaded the photo to her FetLife profile, a website devoted to the kink lifestyle where people could meet, connect with friends, find out about events or learn more about a wide variety of non-vanilla activities.
"Plus I set the photo to private so only our friends can see."
"You need to ask my permission before sharing photos of me."
"I know, I fucked up, I'm sorry."
The photo had been made available to their friends for less than 24 hours, but had already attracted dozens of flattering comments. When Dylan had discovered it he'd immediately demanded that Charlotte take it down. He wasn't ashamed of how he looked, he was just disappointed that his girlfriend had stepped over the line.
"You know I don't mind you sharing yourself on there. In fact, I find it incredibly sexy," he said. "Maybe I don't mind being in your photos there either, but I need to be asked first, please."
