“Of course, it’s hard. But it’s worth it in the end. It’s why scenes can be so intense. If you open yourself up to someone and be vulnerable, the payoff in the end is incredible. That’s why you have to be honest with how you’re doing, so he knows how to proceed. It sounds like Master Ellison is doing exactly what he should. I can’t wait to see where he takes you.”
“You and me both. It’s scary and exciting at the same time.”
“It sure is. By the way, why don’t you call him Master Ellison like the rest of us do?”
“I think because I met him outside the lifestyle. He hasn’t told me to do that yet.”
Maria nodded. “If he wants you to, I’m sure he’ll say something.”
The waitress brought their food and the women ate quietly for a moment before Teigen said, “Maria, thank you for listening. At times I’m overwhelmed by all my feelings about what I’m going through. Your feedback helps me make sense of it all. Otherwise, I think I’d spend my time brooding about how I messed up.”
“Believe me, I get it. I’ve had friends help guide me through my own experiences. I’m just passing it on. Are you going to see him again soon?”
“We’re supposed to go on a tour of buildings that have interesting architecture he thought I might be interested in.”
“Do you know when?”
“First of all, he’s a busy guy. Second of all, I’m sure I’m not the only woman he’s interested in.”
Maria frowned. “You’re right. I’ve never seen him with the same woman for very long. I don’t think you should wait around for him. If you’d like, we could go to Black Light next weekend, and maybe he’ll be there. He doesn’t have to know you went there looking for him.”
“I thought you said I had to be honest with him for it to work.”
A sly smile crept across Maria’s face. “Most of the time, omission of the facts is considered lying, but there’s a fine line. I think you could get away with it.”

It waswhy the next Saturday night she was dressed in a form-fitting red leather dress that just skimmed over her butt that once again Maria had insisted she borrow. Now that she was standing near the bar feeling as though she had on a neon sign beckoning to any Dom in the vicinity, she was rethinking her decision.
After turning down the opportunity to play with the third Dom who’d approached her, Teigen turned to Maria. “I don’t think this was such a good idea. I don’t see Ellison, and I feel awkward with all these Doms coming up to me. You stay and wait for Miles. I think I’m going to call an Uber and go home.”
The beautiful blonde bartender approached her. “Hi, my name is Klara. If you’d like to sit here without anyone bothering you, I can make that happen.”
“I appreciate the offer, but my plans for the evening aren’t working out.”
Klara winked. “I think your plans for the evening is approaching the bar at this very minute.”
Teigen was nonplussed. “How could you know?”
“Because I know everything that goes on around here. It’s my job.”
Maria piped up. “She’s right. He’s here. I just saw him talking to Spencer. He’ll probably make his way to the bar soon. Everyone usually stops here before they play.”
Relief flooded through Teigen, followed by the alarming thought that since he hadn’t called her, he could be meeting someone else. That would be devastating. Why hadn’t she thought of that before? She had to get out of here.
“Would you like a drink so you can look nonchalant when he comes over?” Klara asked.
“Thanks, but I’ve changed my mind about tonight. I’ve got to go.”
Before anyone could talk her out of it, she started for the lockers, causing her to be in a direct path to Ellison, who was coming toward her. She stopped, unable to figure out how to avoid him.
Ellison’s face lit up as he approached her. “Hello, Teigen, what a nice surprise!”
“Hi.” Caught off guard, she couldn’t look him in the face.
“I didn’t expect to see you here tonight. Did you come with Maria?”
“Yes.”
