Perhaps, if you are truly interested in our way of life, you should take up a
training sub. A submissive that is well versed in our universe, and I mean that
Tina, this is wholly another world. Filled with pleasure as well as pain, the
fine line is never crossed, simply blurred so that you don’t know where it
begins or ends. It’s not all about *****, or control it’s a mix of them both.”
Page said as Tina nodded, and Marina finally began to make her way over to
them.

“My friend is on her way over here; you are interviewing me for a job, ok?”
Tina pleaded and Page nodded, seeing the exotic woman moving to them. Page
stood, pulling out a chair for her and Tina almost giggled as Marina sat down.

“Tina, how are you this evening? Who is your charming friend?” Marina asked
with her accent laden voice, making Page give her a long look from head to toe.
He licked his lips and rubbed his beard with his large left hand.

“A business acquaintance of Tina’s actually, Page O’Connor. The pleasure is
mine.” He said, bending and kissing the back of Marina’s hand with his full
cherry colored lips. Tina stared at him; he was charming like no man she’d ever
met. Romantic. How can a man who spanks you, whips you and clamps your nipples
be romantic?

“Really, she’s never mentioned you before.” Marina stated and Page sat back
down.

“Marina” Tina hissed, and Marina was taken back by the tone of her voice.

“I set up this meeting today. We’ve chatted via email, Tina is looking for a
job, and I’m looking for an assistant. I work at Showtime, the head of new
programming.” He said and Tina’s eyes went wide, then she pulled in the look,
afraid that Marina would see it.

“You are going back to work? What about having a baby?” Marina asked and Tina
smiled coldly, letting her know she’d gone way over a line.

“You know, Marina, this is a business meeting, if you don’t mind?” Tina asked,
and Marina stood, feeling like she’d never met Tina Kennard before.

“Of course, I am sorry, how presumptuous of me.” Marina stood, walking away,
her hips swaying as she muttered something in another language under her
breath.

“You see, you are most certainly not a sub.” Page said, laughing and sipping
more of the very good coffee, leaning back.

“You have a sub in mind, for training?” Page asked two hours later, having been
absorbed in talking to the well spoken and alluring Tina Kennard, and having
gleaned that she wasn’t looking for a male companion, but one of the female
species.

“No.” Tina said with a sigh, biting her lip and then she stopped, thinking that
was very un-Domme like. She hadn’t gotten that far and besides, she was the
only sub she knew. Or thought she knew. Perhaps Susan could suggest someone.
She seemed pretty helpful, if not a little predatory.

“You do realize that submission is the ultimate gift? You have to cherish it,
let it breathe, allow it to grow under your command.” Page stated and Tina was
beginning to understand so much more about herself in the last few hours than
ever before in her life.

“I’m beginning to comprehend that I’m in for a life altering change and I’m
very much up to the challenge.” Tina stated, nodding and resolving to be who she
wanted to be.

All of me
Now in control
If you don’t like what you see
You don’t have to stare
No more will I bend to you will
Nor cry tears of blood over you
No more
