"GIDEON, no." I warn him. He clings to me tightly, dipping his head into my hair. He smells weird, is that alcohol? "You're drunk. Again." It seems more like I'm muttering to myself.
"I miss you, Maple." Gideon groans. I can't help but feel the vibration of his chest against mine.
"No, Gi--Sir, you're drunk. Let me help you." I push him away with my best effort, half dragging him down the stairs and to the couch in the dining. He stumbles a little, but I manage to keep him in put. I dump him on the sofa, and when I'm ready to leave, Gideon pulls me back. Yelping, I land on his lap.
"Where do you think you're going, princess?" His breath tickles my spine. For a moment I'm glad that he's drunk, so he won't see me flush. "Maple?"
I get caught off guard when he calls me that. No one calls me that anymore, after Joshua left the orphanage. I changed my name, identity, everything that makes me think of him. I'm not Maple Johnson anymore, but why? Why is my boss calling me that?
"Who are you?" I breathe.
Gideon scoffs, but pulls me even closer, causing my breath to hitch. "It doesn't matter, princess."
"No, NO." I push him away from me, ignoring the desire inside of me. I can't let him take advantage when he's drunk. I dust my plain garment and adjust my hair before I turn to go.
"Everyday, Maple." Gideon's voice halts my footsteps. "I think of you everyday. When I close my eyes, all I see is that beautiful green eyes of yours, that angelic smile you put on. I want you, so badly it hurts. I'm only afraid that you don't want me anymore."
And all I can do is stare at him.
Would he ever learn?

I started pushing Noah's arms away from me. "Ma..... May I have a word with you" I said to Noah walking out of the kitchen without waiting for his reply. I walked at the corner of the living room and waited for Noah to come. He came after a few seconds and stood in front of me. The first thing I did was check his temperature with my hand. I am glad he didn't move back to my touch. Instead he was analyzing me. "Are you alright" I asked. He looked at me in confusion. "I am fine. Why?" He asked. "Did you hit your head somewhere" I asked. "No" he said. "Then why aren't you afraid of women. You used to always avoid talking to them or being near them. But today, you.... you are talking to me an........and touching me. That isn't normal........." I stopped speaking when he again started walking towards me. Instantly my feet started moving back. I stopped walking when I felt the wall hit my back.

Scandalous Submission [+18]
In an instant, I knew I wanted to release her from the blindfold. After all, if the curtains were closed, she wouldn't discern my features anyway. I gently grasped her, pulling her close as I reached for the remote resting on the table beside the sofa. With a press of a button, the heavy curtains glided shut, enveloping us in a cocoon. The world was lost to me. All that mattered was the woman now in my arms. Taking a deep breath, I began to ease the blindfold from the back of her head. As the fabric loosened and slid away, I sensed her heart quickening against my touch. She seemed startled, afraid even, her instinct to shield her eyes immediately with her hands. But I gently guided her hand aside, softly tracing the contours of her eyelids with my fingertips-a silent reassurance urging her to open them. ISABELLA Friday night was supposed to be about fun-drinks with Charlotte, letting go. But when she confessed that her online Dom, Mr. L, had cut her off for disobedience, I made a risky bet: I'd win Mr. L's submission, gain his trust, and get him to meet me in person. It felt like an easy challenge... until I realized the game would draw me closer to my cold, distant CEO, Levi. My online master's punishments awaken forbidden desires I didn't know I had. Now, the lines between pleasure and pain are blurring, and I crave more than I ever imagined. LEVI When Isabella's message hit my inbox-"I'm looking for a new online master"-I expected a typical submissive. But then I realized it was her, my intern-the woman I've secretly wanted since the moment she stepped into my office. Now, the stakes are higher than ever. My need to dominate her consumes me, but my father's warning against mixing business and pleasure rings in my ears. Can I resist the temptation... or will I finally give in to everything I've wanted?

I needed to just spit it out. It's a question that's been lingering in my mind all night. It may ruin the night, but for the sake of my sanity I needed to ask Barron. Here goes nothing. "Barron, can I ask you a question?" I said as I twiddled my fingers together nervously. He nodded his head giving me his full attention. "What are we doing?" I asked softly. Barron rested his elbow on the table and shrugged his shoulders. "I don't know, I guess we are hanging out." He answered with no emotion. "Hanging out? You taking me to all these places is just us hanging out?" I said a little taken back. I was not prepared for that reply. I should have known.
