"How was your day?" he asked. His voice was so casual that you would not have recognized it as a demand, unless you had already agreed to be accountable to him. Her tone was casual in return. "About a 4," she said, using the scale they had agreed on. A "10" meant she had completed … Continue reading A Four Today
Plausible Deniability?
I used to be very careful not to post anything in my kinky blog that could definitely link me to my vanilla self. That has not been true for a while. At some point, I realized it didn't really matter in my life. Particularly now that my kinky stuff is all fantasy anyhow. Times have … Continue reading Plausible Deniability?

They are a map … Continue reading Rolling Along

Of course I remember the year 2000, when everyone … Continue reading Happy 2020!

I'm back! No, I didn't resolve anything, just pushed it all aside. Now I'm ready - wait - what? Oh, this. This is a bit darker than I usually go... An Interlude "Come here," he said, "Time's up."
