Leaving his beer on the coffee table, Nolan joined Z

"Master Z" The Do to not show any relief

"Patrick, I hate to interrupt, but I wanted to ask you for a favor"

"Of course, Master Z" The Dom turned to check on the sub, and Nolan nodded approval at his conscientiousness

"Our trainee, Sally, is unhappy that she scored poorly on a college exaive her a treat Since she’s enjoyed your use in the past, would you ht?"

After a second, the Dom reluctantly shook his head He waved a hand toward the redhead "I have--"

"No proble Elizabeth a bit ago, and Nolan professed hie If you want to take care of Sally, he can relieve you here"

The young Dom was no idiot "You’re a sneaky bastard, Z, but I can see that I’m not the Dom she needs"

Z squeezed Patrick’s shoulder, his face sober "To be honest, Patrick, that Dorets and find Sally She’s expecting you"

As they walked over to the sub, Z said in an undertone to Nolan, "That’s twice in five minutes I’ve been called a bastard My mother would be extre richer than God, Z’s mother had a down-hoh her head off

What was going on? Beth watched as Master Patrick talked with Z and a strange Dorehen Master Patrick picked up his toy bag before returning to her

"Beth," he said "Master Z has a suggestion for you"

A suggestion? She glanced at the bag filled with his BDSM equip the scene?"

He nodded "I’ether for us Maybe this ork better" He gave her an apologetic smile Beth’s stoer before walking out of the scene area, leaving her still chained to the station

She turned her gaze to the two big Doms Master Z was impeccably dressed in his usual black silk shirt and tailored slacks In contrast, the other Doht muscle shirt that showed off a powerful build

Fear ran through her Why had Z sent Patrick away? And as that other Dom here?

Master Z studied her, then lips compressed; he shook his head "Beth, I fear the Shadowlands is not the best place for you I think--"

"No!" Horror rolled through her He would kick her out? Cancel her o except the Tampa clubs where no one would watch out for her She would have no real safety, would never be able to relax knowing Kyler could walk in at any time Stupid to need this so much, but she did "No, please, Master Z" She yanked at her cuffs, wanting to drop to her knees before him "I…whatever you want, I’ll do Beat led the voice in her throat "No…I mean…"

He stepped closer, cupped her face with his hand "Little one, you are not getting what you need here I suppose we can try one ive up some control Can you do that?"

"I will I pro she wanted frolehold the coldness inside had over her e over her life

"Then this is ill happen" He nodded to the sinisterdark eyes His gaze captured hers, pinned her in place She stared at hi her eyes away

"Master Nolan will be your Do as he is willing to top you, you ives up, I’ll terminate your membership immediately"

Have that Dom top her? Take her under command? Panic filled her as her carefully built world cracked, splintering like antique glass "Master Z, please" She dropped her voice to a whisper "Please don’t do this I don’t like him It can’t--"

"Have you met him?"
