chat with you about something, if you have a moment?”
    “Sure, anything for you, boo.” He took my coat and hung it in the foyer closet. We walked into the family room and took our seats on the couch, where he got comfortable in anticipation of a long conversation. “So, what’s up, baby; what’s on your mind?”
    “Well, my Goddess thought it would be a good idea to expand my inner circle and She wanted to make sure i chose people i could trust. Would you be okay with being a part of that circle? i mean, you and Scarlett have always been close, from what she told me, and i know she would love it if we were closer friends, too.”
    I saw the smile spread across his face and I didn’t have to guess what the answer was. “Girl, i was wondering when you would come to me! Of course i will!”
    He hugged me so tight I thought he would choke me out. In the next moment, his body language changed. “Oh wait, so, what about your hubby; what would he think about this, boo?”
    “i don’t give a fuck what he thinks,” I spat. “He’s been on some other bullshit lately, so i’m not about to worry about that.”
    “Well, you might wanna change your tune once you find out what he’s been doing while he’s been training over here.” tiger’s facial expression turned to one of indifference as he studied my body language. “Mistress has been putting him through it, to say the least, not to mention the stuff he’s been doing with me.”
    I narrowed my eyes, wondering about the cryptic nature of his statement. “And what the hell has he been doing with you?”
    “Hold up, trick; ease back on the attitude, okay?” He held his hands up in mock protest. “He was with it, saying that he couldn’t tell you about that side of him and shit, and i told him he needed to clear the air with you before he started exploring his bisexuality.”
    I blinked a few times, trying my best to process the last words he spoke. Exploring his bisexuality?
    “i don’t believe you, tiger; you can’t be serious.”
    “i’m as serious as a heart attack, baby.” He leaned back in his spot on the couch. “you can choose to believe me or not; doesn’t make a difference to me, either way. But i have sucked his dick; i can tell you that much. In the interest of full disclosure, especially when you want me to be in your inner circle, baby, are you okay with me still being there? i love you like a sister, and i don’t like hurting my sisters; Scarlett can vouch for that.”
    I didn’t know what to think, but the signs were there, laid out on the table in front of me. He hadn’t been able to get it up for a few weeks now, and he couldn’t explain the reason why. Now, here’s tiger giving me the smoking gun, and I still needed proof of the reason my husband hadn’t been my husband since he declared his submission to Sin.
    I had to appreciate his candor and honesty, even if the information was hard to take. He could have easily hid that from me, but it made it difficult to know which move was the right one to make. Was he after my husband, or was my husband beginning to do what was best for him?
    “i still want you in my circle, tiger. i have no reason to believe you are out to hurt me, so i’m trusting you to be on my team, regardless of what you and your Domina are doing with my husband. Right now, my journey into submission is more importantto me at this stage. i can’t worry about what he’s doing, and i don’t want to know unless it becomes a threat to my marriage or my health. Are we clear?”
    “Crystal clear, baby doll,” tiger grinned, grabbing my hand to kiss the back of my palm. “Unless it goes against my Mistress’ protocol, i’m with you. i love your Goddess to death, and She would kill me if i didn’t assist in your growth.”
    I checked my watch and realized if I didn’t go, I would be late for my visit with my Goddess. I kissed tiger on the cheek and got up to leave. “i appreciate what you’ve said, and i will
