Twenty Eight

Hoseok was a little surprised, and a lot put out, when Jin texted him the day before their scheduled meeting to ask him to come half an hour early.

You're getting paid to tolerate him. He reminded himself before sending a curt reply of agreement. Besides, if pressed, Hoseok had to admit that Jin did know his stuff. He was a vain, arrogant, obnoxious prick with a superiority complex but he was a knowledgeable prick.

While Namjoon's lessons were at the club, Jin liked to have his sessions in his home. Or rather, in the small garage attached to his home that he had converted specifically for his clients' various needs. There was a separate, side entrance, so Hoseok had never been into the man's house. He was mildly curious to how a man like Jin might decorate his personal space, but it wasn't something that kept him up nights or anything.

So, he was kind of shocked when Jin walked out of his front door, looking both casual and unnecessarily distinguished in a dark button up shirt rolled up his toned forearms and tucked into crisp tan trousers and waved him over.

"Take your shoes off, please." The words were polite but the tone was curt, as it usually was when he addressed Hoseok.

Knowing better than to argue, Hoseok simply pressed his lips together and toed off his sneakers, setting them in the entryway where Jin pointed. Jin watched him with a closed expression before nodding in satisfaction and jerking his head a little in silent demand. Biting back an irritated sigh, Hoseok followed. He knew the concessions didn't mean anything. It wasn't a big deal to take his shoes off in someone else's house, to follow them to a small dining room table or take a seat. The tasks weren't the problem. It was the way Jin didn't quite ask, just instructed and waited to be obeyed. The way his eyes would glint with smug satisfaction when Hoseok grudgingly complied. He set Hoseok's teeth on edge and he knew it, seemed to revel in his subtle provocations.

"I have a proposition for you for today's lesson." He said abruptly, his hands folded loosely on the table as he eyed Hoseok closely.

"I'm not interested in fucking you." The crass words were out of his mouth before Hoseok had really considered them, but he found he didn't regret them.

Jin seemed completely unbothered by the outburst, his gaze measured as he informed him tonelessly. "I only fuck those who earn it. And you, Hobi, haven't."

Hoseok wasn't sure where Jin had learned the nickname, but he wielded it like a weapon. Instead of responding, he merely set his mouth in disapproving lines and waited for Jin to explain why they were there.

The silence between them lasted just long enough to be uncomfortable before Jin shook his head and continued. "As I was saying, I have a proposition for you for today. I actually have one of my regular clients coming today. We have a long term; non-exclusive contract and he has broken one of the agreed upon rules. He was agreed to allow you to observe, if you were interested. You are, of course, free to refuse or leave at any time if you become too uncomfortable. Safe, sane and consensual is the kink community's motto. I thought, however, that you might find it informative to have a live model to demonstrate the various practices we've discussed previously. In particular, traditional submissive poses or positions and some of their uses. He's well trained, so his form is very good. And how to enact corporal punishment while ensuring your sub maintains position."

Something shifted in Jin's expression and for once he didn't appear challenging or insufferable. "Poses aren't necessary for play, by any means, but they can help focus both dominant and submissive, make it easier to slip into the right headspace for a scene. I think you'll understand what I mean when he gets here."
