Michael & Javier's story is now re-edited, with a new cover and published. Read on for the complete first chapter! :-) A Hampton Road novella: Finding a Master for Michael won't be easy, but Javier is determined that his boy will have the best-even if it means letting him go. The Hampton Road Club is a secret gathering-place for men of a more sadomasochistic nature. The 1920s might be roaring, but certain practices are still frowned upon in open society. Michael's job is to greet the club members as they arrive and to report directly to the club manager, Javier. Sometimes, his direct contact with Javier has nothing to do with the club members and everything to do with submitting to the strict Master. Javier would give anything to keep Michael as his permanent boy, but he owes his boss, Saul, a great personal debt for helping him when he was at his lowest. Saul taught him that professionalism is the key to keeping things running smoothly at the club. He knows Saul would be greatly disappointed if he were to ever find out about what goes on between him and the club greeter behind closed doors. That's why he's never revealed to Michael how he really feels and why he must do the one thing for which he'd never thought he'd have the courage-give Michael away to a new Master.
