afterwards. It will not affect my performance in any way if you do or don’t tip me.” She stopped in front of him. “Do you have any sex toys?”
    He hesitated, mind suddenly blank.
    She arched an eyebrow. “I asked you a question.”
    The words dug into his skin as if she’d pinched him.
    “I’ve bought a few things.” Suddenly he felt shy; a child called in front of the teacher to be reprimanded.
    “I see. We’ll deal with that later.” She flicked her finger. “Get dressed.”
    It was an effort to pull up his underwear and pants, his hands trembling with a mixture of fear and desire. He grunted as he tucked himself in, fighting the urge to stroke himself and finish the job.
    She watched him with the eyes of a predator, a slight smile on her lips.
    “You’ll do.” Kate took a pen out of her jacket and scribbled something in the file folder. “Someone will call to make the first appointment. Make sure you leave plenty of time before and after—I don’t like being rushed or left waiting.”
    I bet you don’t.
    He pulled the shirt on over his head, grateful he’d been putting in extra time in his basement at his makeshift gym. Working at a desk all day almost demanded some sort of physical countermeasure to avoid the tiny roll of fat around his waist expanding to a dangerous size.
    “What are you thinking?” Suddenly she was nose to nose with him, her perfume washing over him like a cool lake breeze.
    “I’m glad I work out. Don’t want to disappoint you.” He responded without thinking.
    Kate smiled. “We’ll see. What would you say if I told you not to jerk off until my first visit?”
    He shuddered, thinking of not touching himself for another week.
    Impossible. As soon as I get to some place private—
    He swallowed hard. “If that’s what you want—”
    She laughed and headed for the door, file folder in hand. “I’m not a nasty person, Alex. But don’t wear yourself out before my first visit.” Kate turned toward him and pouted, blasting his self-control into shreds. “It’d be such a waste if you had nothing left for me.”
    And she was gone.
    Alex sat in the chair. He clasped his hands together, aware he was sweaty and shaking. His shirt was haphazardly hanging off his shoulders, his suit jacket crushed under his ass with the damned visitor’s pass jabbing him something awful, and he couldn’t move for fear of going off in his briefs like a horny teenager finding his cock for the first time.
    What the hell just happened?
    Kate strode into the break room a few doors down from where she’d left Alex, clutching the file folder. There was fresh coffee, and she helped herself to a cup. Despite all the water she’d drunk during the interview, her throat was dry, and she needed the caffeine.
    Her hand trembled as she dumped in sugar and creamer. She gritted her teeth and sat at a nearby table.
    Interesting man.
    Computer geek. Gamer.
    She didn’t bother worrying if she’d come across him in one of her many online game personas. The odds were against it, and she’d be a fool to reveal herself to him in an alternate world.
    She’d also pushed his limits far beyond the norm.
    Nudity wasn’t part of the interviewing process. It wasn’t banned, but it was highly discouraged. It was a shock to the system, bashing down the emotional walls between a sub and Domme. Depending on the man, it could break him, send him screaming from the room.
    But not Alex.
    He’d complied quickly and perfectly as if he was born to it.
    An automatic sub.
    She sipped the lukewarm coffee.
    She’d called him out, and Alex had responded as if he’d been hers for years.
    Hers.
    Kate drank more coffee, the sickly sweet drink soothing her nerves.
    She’d screwed up. She’d let her emotions take control of her, allowed them to push Alex further than she should have for the first time they met.
    She’d lost control, and that was unforgivable.
    Alex had complied, but if he’d refused, there wasn’t much she
