Ashlynn's POV (Two months later)
The sun filtered through the windows of the family room, casting a warm glow over the table where I sat with Marcus. These Saturday meet-ups had become something I looked forward to, even though they still felt a little overwhelming at times. Marcus always had stories to tell, questions to ask, and he listened to me like what I said truly mattered. It made me feel... special.
Today, though, Marcus seemed a little different—more serious, like he had something important on his mind. He sipped his coffee, his brow furrowed slightly before he set the mug down and looked at me with his warm, reassuring smile.
"Ashlynn," he started, his voice soft but steady. "I've been thinking about something, and I wanted to talk to you about it."
I tilted my head, curious but a little nervous. "What is it?"
He leaned forward, resting his forearms on the table. "I've been telling Claire and Rachel about you. They're your older sisters. They're so excited to meet you."
My heart skipped a beat. I'd heard stories about them—how Claire was a submissive and Rachel was classified as a pet submissive. But the idea of meeting them was... big.
"What are they like?" I asked, my voice quieter than usual.
Marcus's expression softened, a mix of pride and love clear on his face. "Claire's 21 now. She's always been thoughtful and nurturing, the kind of person who makes sure everyone else is okay before herself. She was classified as a submissive, and her Dom, Malcolm, is just as kind-hearted as she is. They live not far from me, and she's happy. I think you'd love her."
I nodded slowly, picturing her in my mind. "And Rachel?"
He chuckled softly, shaking his head. "Rachel's 20, and she's... well, let's just say she's spirited. She's bold, independent, and never afraid to speak her mind. Being a pet submissive suits her perfectly—she thrives on playfulness and structure. Her Master, Aaron, is incredibly patient with her, and they have such a strong bond. Rachel has always had a way of lighting up a room."
"What's a pet submissive like?" I asked, frowning a little at the unfamiliar term.
Marcus leaned back, his tone gentle as he explained. "It's about connection and playfulness. Rachel's dynamic focuses on those traits, and Aaron helps her feel safe and grounded while letting her explore that side of herself. It's not so different from how Ethan takes care of you, in its own way."
I nodded again, feeling a little more reassured. "What about... the others?"
His smile widened, and he leaned forward again. "The younger three—Liam, Jake, and Kenzie—are still at home. Liam's 16, Jake's 15, and Kenzie's 13. They're full of energy and always keep me on my toes. Kenzie loves anything creative—drawing, painting, you name it. Jake's the comedian of the family, always making everyone laugh. And Liam's into sports; he's always outside with a ball of some kind."
Hearing about them made my chest feel warm, but also a little nervous. "Do they know about me?"
Marcus nodded. "They do. I've told them all about you, and they can't wait to meet you. They'll come a little later, but for now, I thought it might be nice for you to meet Claire and Rachel first. They've been asking about you since I told them."
I fiddled with the edge of my sweater, my nerves twisting in my stomach. "What if... what if they don't like me?"
Marcus reached across the table and rested his hand gently on mine. "Ashlynn, they're going to love you. You're their sister, and they already care about you. And if they don't understand everything right away, that's okay. We'll take it slow."
