Bess was a tenacious troop leader, eager to push her pack to the top of the annual sales drive. With a bag full of cookie boxes and the curiosity of a blank check, she knocked on the door. It was a creaky old house. It stood on the edge of town, and rumors of a handsome, reclusive prince that lived there rode around town like a bag of quarters at the local arcade. Furthermore, it was chilly outside, but it was a short walk on Odlin Street. Bess was in her mid-twenties, cute and focused--she was not there to make friends; she was there to sell cookies.
And who could say no? Especially when the leader of the Greater New Chestnut District 11 den comes to your door. She wore the outfit; she wore it for success, and her clothes were pinned with a hundred badges of achievements that told you why.
Her long red hair caught in the breeze, and her tan skirt daringly danced just above her knees.
The door opened.
He had long hair and was handsome, with a jaw line that looked to have descended from nobles. His shirt was open, and his eyes were dark. He had no need for cookies.
"But these are the best cookies you'll ever eat." Bess pushed her foot in the door before it could close.
"I'll make you a deal." He stated. "You come inside my manor, and I will buy some of your cookies."
Normally, this would have been a red flag. Porch transactions only--scout rule number seven. The buyer can go back inside to grab their wallet, but you can't follow. However, Bess did. The interior was cozy, dimly lit with velvet and leather furniture dyed in red and black like an adult play-land. Was this strange man a grown-up goth? It didn't matter to her; he was so handsome, she probably would have followed him anywhere.
"So, you take care of the little girls?" He questioned.
"I do."
"Yes, they require someone to look out for them. Who takes care of you?" He asked directly.
"Well... um... what do you mean?"
He spoke with a slight accent in a deep tone that instilled a certain comfort in her.
"Who looks after your well-being, and other things?" He pushed.
"I-- ah. I, well. I have a boyfriend. He is a troop leader in the boy scouts."
"I assume his name is Robert?"
"Well... close."
"They're all named Robert." The man continued.
"It's actually Rob, but how did you know?" She smiled in disbelief.
"Because Roberts need to wear a uniform with many badges like yours. It makes them feel better."
"I, ah... who are you?" She questioned.
"My name is Prince Tameriel, you can call me Tame--however, I am not."
"You're not?--"
"Tame."
"Oh, I gotcha." Bess laughed nervously.
"So, you came to sell me cookies?"
"Yes. Yes!"
"I will take your hand so that you shall follow."
"What?"
Before she knew it, she was being escorted up some stairs and down a hallway. She had noticed his muscular body and his long hair that lapped across his shoulders as he walked. He pulled her into his bedroom.
"This is where you buy cookies?" She asked shyly.
"This is where the troop leader comes to be rewarded. And, yes, after I'll take a pack of the Caramel Delights."
"Oh..." she giggled.
Suddenly he put a blindfold over her eyes. She was being walked back up against a wall and her arms and legs tied against a soft post. She wasn't sure how this happened, so smoothly--as if her body had already agreed to cooperate. It was a blur, but she was here now, wide awake, a little scared, blindfolded, aroused.
"What are you doing?" She asked.
