All I know is that Nicole is on my mind and that I’m becoming increasingly displeased at her lack of trust. She left my estate the other night like she was running from something, and I have to find out what.

The company limousine picks me up, and I have the driver take me through the city in no particular direction. I need the space of just being able to drive and not have the confines of the office or my own penthouse. I don’t where I’m going but it allows me to think.

I’ve just had a meeting with none other than Sebastian King. And my, is he in good spirits. He better be, really, he’s just married his own protégé, Lily. I know Lily is Nicole’s best friend, and I know she’s the one who got her the interview with our firm.

The thing is, what started out as your standard dominant/submissive relationship with Sebastian and Lily surprisingly turned into something much more. None of us ever expected him to settle down. But he was quite taken with her from the start, just as I am with Nicole.

No one’s ever expected me to settle down either. Hell, I’ve never expected myself to settle down. But here I am, thinking about Sebastian’s position and admiring it.

Today, he seemed like he’s in better spirits than ever before. He seems like he’s in his prime. In fact, I’ve never seen him happier.

Sebastian, like us, can have anything he wants. The world is at his fingertips. But this one girl, this Lily, stole his heart, and he never looked back.

Now Sebastian is even thinking about entering politics, which is something I’ve been trying to persuade him to do for years. One suggestion from Lily, and he’s knocking on my door asking for sponsorship.

Of course, we’ll endorse Sebastian. Who wouldn’t? He’s a keen businessman, and his name has as much sway in this town as our own. Sebastian will make a fucking superb politician.

I just can’t believe he took Lily’s advice over my own. This shows what marriage can do to a man.

The driver takes me along various routes within the city, and it’s calming to just watch people go about their evening. Normally, I would have dinner plans with some new girl that’s been sent my way. It’d be a boring conversation and a pretty nice fuck, and that’d be about it.

Instead, I find myself wandering the city streets trying to find some clarity.

All I can ever think about is Nicole. It’s getting out of control.

She’s gotten to me in a way I thought no one ever could. She’s penetrated the many layers and walls of protection I’ve held so closely around me.

If she was here right now, I’d have her naked in the back of this limo faster than she can say my name. The thought causes my cock to harden.

I decide I have to get to her.

“Driver,” I say as I lower the partition between us. “Please take me to Nicole’s house.”

The thought of seeing Nicole makes me excited and makes me at ease all at the same time. She’s the only person in the world that I feel truly comfortable with. And she’s also the only woman that can keep my interest.

The car can’t get there quick enough. I make a drink while I wait, vodka soda.

I can’t even believe I’m thinking about getting married to Nicole. But for now, we’ll just take things one step at a time.

I wonder where Adam and Cameron are on the issue. I wonder if they ever consider committing to her. Cameron, I can see doing it. He’s more grounded.

But Adam, he’s a playboy. And I really can’t ever see him settling down. But then, I didn’t see myself settling down either. And I certainly didn’t see Sebastian King getting married.

We get closer to Nicole’s apartment, and I finish my drink, take my tie off, and undo a couple of buttons.

It’s time to rock ‘n roll. I’m going to have to go in there and have a really deep discussion with her about what’s to come. No more of this waiting game, this in-between phase to see if she can commit.

I need to know whether Nicole’s in this for real. I get that we’ve asked a lot of her by exposing her to BDSM and by asking her to submit, but doesn’t she know by now that we only have her happiness in mind?

I have to get to the bottom of why she’s holding back. There must be something from her past that still holds a grip over her. I need to expose that and to show her that we are worth trusting.

The idea that Nicole might not be able to commit has me on high alert. It’s a reality I can’t accept. It would mean losing her, and at this point, I’m too far in to allow that to happen.
