Chapter 16: A Ghost Of The Past

Saturday 30 November 2013

"It's alright, I can understand, Jeremy," Master Andrei says after I have politely declined his offer for a contract. "If you ever change your mind..."

Ugh, not likely, Sir... You're not really my kind!

"I'll let you know if I do, Sir. Have a good evening!" I say, before I scurry to the small entrance of the Black Diamond, feeling his stare on my back.

Phew! That's one thing done!

Last weekend, Master Andrei offered me a contract. He is a recently appointed Dominant at the club and I've often felt his eyes on me since he joined, but to be honest, the guy is not really my type. I like those bulky men who are a few years older than me, but I can't see myself with a man who could be my father. I must admit he still looks good for someone about fifty, but I prefer them in their late twenties or early thirties. I'm not judging these couples with a significant age difference, to each their own, this is just not my thing.

Besides, I doubt Master Aaron would let it happen in any case. He doesn't like to see Sadists in contract with non-masochistic Subs, especially new members! And Master Andrei is a Sadist, so definitely not for me!

Anyway, I had promised him an answer this weekend and he had it, now I can move on and think about something else!

I am not too early today, so I hurry inside the long corridor, glad to see that Master Aaron's office is closed. This means he won't call me in again and make me waste more time before I can get to meet my friends in the Subs' Room! I know he wants to see me for a quick talk like he has been doing on a regular basis since Master Siegfried left, but I'm not in the mood to talk about my situation tonight.

No, this evening, I want to find myself a free Dom and get roughly fucked. Well, Master Aaron might do that too, since this is how our last conversation ended a couple of weeks ago, but I'd rather get myself someone else... maybe one of the most recent members. Newly-appointed Doms can be fun – as long as they're not Sadists! – because they're a bit hesitant and it's cool to push them.

We'll see about that!

For now, I join my friends in the Subs' Room and as expected, they are already all there. All except Liam since the lucky guy is spending the weekend with his Master in New York! Liam is also a new recruit that Master Joshua brought into the lifestyle barely two months ago. I was asked to tutor him as part of his Submissive training and immediately felt a deep attachment to the young angel. Liam is just one of the sweetest persons I have ever met. His shyness and innocence are adorable, but what I like even more is the mischievous side he is trying to hide.

Liam was pretty unexperienced when he fell into Master Joshua's grip – to say things clearly, he was a virgin – so he really started from scratch and still has a lot to learn in terms of sex, but I trust Master Joshua to teach him well. He is not one to socialize easily from what I understood, but I am proud to say that my usual group of Sub friends and I have managed to make him at ease rather quickly, and he now seems to be really comfortable around us.

This is not the first time that Master Aaron asks me to tutor a new Sub, but I have never bonded with any of them like I did with Liam, so I'm going to miss him tonight.

Of course, there are still Ed, Tony, Eric and Mick, and I truly love them too. Even if we also often exchange with other Subs, our little group is a bit tighter and we really get along. Liam integrated very well and like they say, the more, the merrier! He is also such a cutie with his angel features, his blonde hair and his baby blue eyes. It's just too bad that he's with Master Joshua... I would have loved to be involved in a threesome or a foursome with him, but that probably won't ever happen.

Master Joshua is so possessive! And yet, he has had his share of multiple-partner scenes over the past years, even if it was mostly when he wasn't under contract with a Sub, but I have a feeling he won't ever allow that with his new boy. I just don't get it... Sharing is fun once in a while! Especially when you treat a D/S relationship as one that doesn't hold any feeling... Supposedly so! Because I think Master Joshua is much deeper into Liam than he will admit. I've seen how he looks at him! His eyes never leave his boy and other Doms had better not get too close!

Exactly like what happened last weekend when Master Stefan and Master Frank tried to drag Liam in their net while his boy was on the dancefloor. It didn't sit well with Master Joshua apparently. Unfortunately, I wasn't there when it happened because I was already having a drink with Master Andrei, but from what the guys told me, it seems like Master Joshua was about to beat them down and that's why he organized this weekend in New York, I believe. I guess he wanted a little break from the club and to have Liam to himself. I can't blame him, but he should definitely collar his Sub. That would avoid other Doms to turn around him like he is a prey!

Anyway, I'll spend the evening with my other friends until I manage to draw a Dom's attention for the rest of the night!

As soon as I walk into the Subs' Room, I join the guys for dinner at one of the tables and we start our usual chitchat. Ed arrived while I was still outside talking to Master Andrei, so he asks for a detailed summary of our conversation and I recount how I simply declined his offer. Nothing too complicated.

Master Aaron wouldn't have let me accept in any case and by the way. As a Sadist, Master Andrei is normally not allowed to interact with regular Subs and should always stick around the Masochists, at least until he has proved that he can handle performing scenes that don't involve extreme sadism.

This is Master Camden's case for instance. He has shown that he can leave out his torture instruments once in a while and enjoy just rough sex. It clearly opens the field of possibilities for him since there are not that many masochistic members, and even if it doesn't entirely fulfill his needs, he seems to like it all the same. And for us, regular Subs, it can be fun to experience something a bit harder than usual.

When Master Andrei offered me a contract last weekend, I told him I would think about it. My mind was already set, but I didn't have the guts to tell him right away. A bit later that evening, Master Aaron summoned me into his office for a quick talk. He wanted to know about my conversation with Master Andrei and when I told him about the proposal, he forbade me to accept and offered to be by my side when I would decline.

I sincerely appreciate Master Aaron's kindness and the way he always tends to overprotect me. I'm not the only one, and he truly cares for all the Subs of the Black Diamond, but dang! This man knows how to make you feel special! I love it, but I needed to deal with this on my own. It wasn't the first time a Sub would turn down a Dom – or vice versa. What wrong could happen!?

"Damn! I would have chickened out in your place, Jer!" Tony exclaims once I have finished my little speech, which makes his twin burst out laughing.

These two are really funny! They are real twins in the sense that they are like two peas in a pod, with exactly the same features, and there is a lot of complicity between them, but their personalities are so different! Tony is much shier than Eric, and it seems like the latter took all the genes that gave him such a strong character.

"That's because you're such a coward, Baby Bro!!" Eric replies.

"Screw you! I was born two minutes before you, Dumbass!"

"You want to screw me, Baby Bro? Huh, huh... That's not going to happen!" Eric exclaims with a smug expression on his face. "If anything happens, I'll be the one screwing you!"

None of us is shocked at the table. We all know the twins often... play together in the showers – and probably at home. They also often enjoy sharing a scene with one or more Doms, so obviously, they have already kissed, blown each other and so on, but I don't think they ever went as far as anal sex. Or perhaps they have, I don't know. I wouldn't be surprised if they have, to be honest! They have absolutely no morals in terms of incest and I'm pretty sure a Dom will make them do that one day. I wonder how the one who bottoms would feel... I would feel like being fucked by myself... Weird...

"Oh shut up! And I'm not the only one being impressed by Master Andrei..." Tony grumbles.

"I agree, Tony..." Ed says. "That man is so..."

"Cold?" I suggest and all the guys nod in agreement. "He has such a cold aura... even if he wasn't a Sadist, I wouldn't want him to dominate me! His icy blue eyes freeze me!" I add with a shudder, and all my friends concur.

The rest of our dinner is spent gossiping, as it's often the case, and the Subs' Room quickly gets crowded with more and more young men who come and go between the lockers and the shower area, most of them being fully naked until they dress in their tiny shorts. Now I obviously have a preference for muscular men, but seeing all these butts and dicks gets me hard. I am becoming uncomfortably tight in my boxer briefs and I suddenly remember I have planned to get laid tonight, by whoever will want me, but if I want more options, I'd better hurry up a bit before all the best Doms are taken.

Mick stays at the table to speak with other Subs while the four of us head to the lockers to undress and go to the showers. My freaking hard-on is clearly not discreet but what do I care? Once we have performed our enemas, Eric and Tony scurry into a shower stall on their own while Ed and I share another one. We begin to wash our hair and to shave each other's butts, then I take care of my privates. After four years of practice, I manage pretty well on my own and rather quickly. Even more when I am in a hurry to get fucked! Damn! I feel like a teenager who can't control his testosterone and I am so horny tonight!

"That boner you're sporting, man!" Ed chuckles just as I am finished.

"Speaking of... Turn around and bend over, I need release!" I tease him, and he bursts out laughing.

"No, thanks! I don't need preparation tonight! But I can suck you! Otherwise, you'll never manage to zip up your shorts!!" he replies.

I could use cold water, but a blowjob sounds much better...

"Yeaaaaaah, get on your knees, boy! Give me head, Ed!" I smirk playfully, but Ed really drops to his knees and before I can react, he pins my hips against the wall and swallows me deep!

Ed is one of the best in terms of blowjobs and feeling the back of his throat quickly sends me overboard. I just can't hold back the fire in my balls and they shoot their cream, directly down Ed's gutter. My sudden orgasm makes me weak in the knees and that fucker doesn't help as he keeps teasing my sensitive glans.

"Fuck! That was quick!" he smirks a few seconds later when he rises to his feet.

"What can I say? You're just too good..."

"Yeah!! So good that you'll have to return the favor, Baby!" he snorts, and I know he's not kidding. "Either you let me stretch your little hole, or I'll have to face-fuck you!" he continues, closing up on me and pinning me back against the wall as his tongue invades my mouth.

Ed sometimes has this light dominant aura that I love so much and he's one of the Subs I like to be naughty with once in a while. One of his hands reaches for my backside and soon enough, a finger pokes at my entrance, penetrating it roughly.

"Ugh, Ed!! Stop!!" I whisper-shout. "Don't go making me hard again! Fine! I'll blow you!" I add, kneeling in front of him.

Ed takes control of my head as soon as I have allowed him inside my mouth, but he goes rather gently at first. He will soon deep-throat me because he knows I love it. Just as he begins to go deeper and deeper, I vaguely hear a larger clamor coming from the distance.

Shit! It must be Master Aaron. And I guess he's coming for one of his occasional inspections in the Subs' Room.

"Jeremy!!" the deep voice calls.

Ugh no!! Not again!

"Where's Jeremy?" Master Aaron asks, and I can hear him much closer now.

Ed doesn't stop rocking his hips and if anything, he only accelerates the pace.

"We're here... Master... Aaron!" Ed replies through his heavy breathing, looking down at me with a smug face as my eyes open widely.

The door of our stall suddenly opens but Ed holds my head firmly, preventing me from looking at the Master Dom.

"You two..." Master Aaron sighs.

"May I come... Master Aaron?"

"You may, Buddy!"

And with that, a long shot of milk fills my mouth and I greedily swallow everything while Ed groans through his orgasm. Once I have milked him dry, I stand up and both Ed and I face the Master Dom, at attention and with our heads lowered. The shower is still running behind us, but I don't dare turn back to switch off the tap.

"That was hot, boys!" he exclaims before he leans down and licks the corner of my mouth, probably wiping a bit of cum. Damn! That man is so freaking hot!

"Keeping you clean... Does Ed need to return you the favor, Jeremy?"

"I was already returning it, Master Aaron," I reply, blushing a little.

"But we may treat you, Master Aaron," Ed adds teasingly.

"You naughty guys..." he chuckles. "I'm already spending the evening with Nigel, but thank you all the same! So if you're done here, go get dressed, and Jeremy, I want you to stop by my office before you go to the club," he says, the last part in a more serious tone.

Ugh, so much for not wanting to have a conversation with him tonight! Although, it might only be about the exchange I had with Master Andrei. Yeah, it must be it. I haven't done anything wrong lately. I just hope I'm not going to get the you-need-to-find-a-new-Dom-soon speech.

"I'll be there in ten minutes, Master Aaron."

Once he has left, Ed and I quickly finish our shower, half-giggling because it's not the first time Master Aaron catches us doing naughty things, half-worrying about why I am summoned to his office. Ten minutes later though, I am dressed in my leather shorts and Dr. Martens, oiled, and ready to go. Ed wishes me luck and I am off to the Master Dom's office.

I hesitate for a long minute behind the door because I think I hear voices inside, but since it eventually remains silent, I knock and wait for him to beckon me in.

"Come in, Jeremy!" his loud voice comes so I walk in.

Master Aaron is alone, so he might have been on the phone. I don't find him at his desk like I expected, but seated on a couch on my right, facing the meeting room door, so I go to stand at attention in front of him, waiting for his next order.

"Kneel."

I was expecting him to tell me to sit on the couch as well, as he usually does in similar situations, but I still drop to my knees. Weirdly enough, I can almost feel the presence of another person in the room, the scent of another cologne.

"I didn't ask you to come and see me for a lecture, so relax, Jeremy, and please look up," he says softly.

I guess the tension in my body and the concern on my face must have shown. When I meet his chocolate eyes, I only see kindness, so I assume I'm not in trouble.

"I saw you had a conversation with Master Andrei on the parking lot, so I presume you declined his offer?"

"Yes, I did, Master Aaron."

"Good boy. I wanted to catch up with you, but I was busy with a Dominant at that moment, and it seemed to go well, but now please tell me. How did it really go? Did he bother you?"

"No, not at all, Master Aaron. I just told him I wasn't interested, and he said he understood. He just insisted a bit, saying that if I change my mind, I can go and tell him. But that's it."

"Alright, thank you for telling me. I'll make sure to speak with Master Andrei and remind him that he should stick to the masochistic Subs for now," he replies, obviously relieved.

"Thank you, Master Aaron."

"Now, since I have you here," he says, squinting at me. "How are things going on for you? How is work doing?"

Of course... He just can't help it.

"All good, Master Aaron!" I reply cheerfully, proud that I haven't messed up at all since Master Siegfried left. "My boss keeps praising me on my work and he no longer has to verify everything I do. He told me a few months ago that he was really happy he had hired and trained me, because I count as an experienced employee now. And I haven't been late once in months."

"Good boy! I'm proud of you!"

"Thank you, Master Aaron," I reply shyly, feeling myself blush again, but his praise goes straight to my heart.

Praise is probably the thing I miss the most when I'm not in contract with a Dominant. You do get some during a scene with a free Dom if you behave, but it's not the same as being congratulated for good results outside of the club. You don't get all this attention, and I must admit I had gotten used to it, even with Master Siegfried. Our relationship may not have been anything like the one I had with Gary, but I still appreciated his guidance and praise.

"I'm really glad you've behaved so well since Master Siegfried left, and haven't relapsed into your old habits. You've become such a good Submissive, Buddy! I truly like this!" he praises me again, making me feel all warm in my chest. "Still, I would really like you to start considering looking for a new Dominant. I guess you remember the conversation we had before you signed up with Siegfried?"

As if I could forget! My butt also vividly remembers the paddle spanking and the punishment fuck it received that day!

"I do, Master Aaron," I reply meekly. "I've just given myself a few months to enjoy the status of a free Sub, but I know I need the guidance of a Dom in my life. I'll find a new permanent Dom by the end of next month... just to start the new year on a good basis..."

"Seems like a good plan, Buddy. And you know that this is what Gary would have liked..." he says in a deeper tone and I lower my head at that.

Ugh!! Why did he have to remind me of him!? I mean... He knows how hard it's been for me after Gary left!

Over the past two years, I have learned to deal with his departure, mostly thanks to Master Siegfried. He never replaced Gary, and I wasn't attached to him as I was to my previous Master, but he was able to alleviate my withdrawal. I have strived not to think about Gary too much, or about the fact that he never contacted me in two years, except for a birthday card each year. So, bringing him up now is not the best of ideas, which is surprising from Master Aaron, and it suddenly dampens my mood.

"I know, Master Aaron," I reply with a strangled voice, remaining respectful but my tone certainly holds a bit of bitterness.

"He would be really proud of you, Jeremy, trust me!" he then says with a warm voice.

Is he fucking going to stop adding salt to my wounds!?

"Do you have someone for tonight?"

"Not yet, Master Aaron."

And if you don't release me soon, all the good Doms will be taken!

"Right, then I have someone for you. Someone who might offer you a contract as well," he says, making me look back up at him.

His expression is now unreadable, and I wonder what he has in mind.

"May I ask who he is, Master Aaron?"

"He's a new member," he replies, not giving me any hint on his ultimate purpose.

However, the mention of a new member catches my attention. That could be fun!

"He's a new member, but he has been in the lifestyle for several years, Buddy. So don't expect someone who will slack on your submission."

Ugh! Damn!

"But he's a very good Dominant. I'm sure things could work well with him."

That doesn't tell me who the guy is or what he looks like!!!

"Will you introduce me to him soon, Master Aaron?" I ask sheepishly.

"Tonight, like I just said. The way I see things is, you should spend the evening with him and see how you get along. If you like the man, I suggest you sign a three-month contract and renew it for six months if everything works well. Just take things slowly," he explains and this is funny, because I feel like he is not only talking to me here. "What do you think? Are you ready to sign up with someone?"

I think it over for a few seconds. I honestly wanted to enjoy myself for a bit longer and I really planned to find someone by the end of December, but what if I missed an opportunity declining his offer? What if this person is a good Dom for me? Master Aaron never failed me in terms of advice and I think I should trust him again this time.

"I think it's... a good idea, Master Aaron. And yes, I think I'm ready," I reply, trying to convey all my honesty through my eyes.

A smile spreads on his face, suddenly brightening his expression. I am expecting a Good Boy from him now, but it doesn't come. Master Aaron covers his mouth with his hand, as if he was pondering on something important, but I think he's trying to hide a smile. What the heck is wrong with him?

"Good evening, Pet. I have missed you," a deep voice echoes behind me.

A voice I would recognize among thousands.

A deep voice that reminds me of so many memories that goosebumps raise on arms.

Shivers run down my spine.

Tingles erupt in my belly.

My heart constricts.

Tears flood my eyes.

And a big lump forms in my throat, preventing me from uttering a word.

A ghost of the past...

Emotions rush through me like an avalanche sweeping away all the sadness I have felt for the past two years at the sound of this voice, because it means so much to me! It implies safety and well-being, but also comfort, support, guidance and the authority I need to remain on the right track. Of course, Master Siegfried did the job too, and I was feeling rather good around him; he took me into mind-blowing scenes. But he would never compare to Him.

Master Siegfried holds the third position in my heart and mind because he was the one who built me up again over the last two years. He maintained me afloat and helped me to move on. He consolidated my basis, and kept me a nicely trained Submissive.

Master Aaron holds the second place because he brought me into a lifestyle I never thought would suit me. He showed me the way. He never failed me and always supported me when I needed his help. And he introduced me to the best man I had ever met.

The one who holds the first place in my heart.

Master Gary is this man and his ranking is entirely deserved as he was the one who really trained me into submission. The one who made me the man I have become, and I owe him almost everything.

So when I hear his voice behind me, I feel like a huge weight is being lifted off my shoulders. It doesn't take a genius to understand that the new member Master Aaron was talking about is him. Of course, Gary has been in the lifestyle for years, and of course Master Aaron knows that things might work between us. I dearly hope so! That's if we haven't changed too much. I know I haven't, but what about him?

Quite often in the last two years, I have wondered how he was doing and if he had found a similar club in Japan. If he had a new Submissive. Whenever these questions raised in my head, I would just push them away, because they were too painful for me. Now I just wonder if he is still the same man I knew, but I get Master Aaron's speech a few seconds ago... A first night as a reunion. Three months to see if we still match. Six months to test our longevity.

I startle when a hand suddenly rests on my shoulder and brings me out of my daze. The touch sends a warm wave through my body. One that immediately calms me down and makes me feel whole again. I realize that Master Aaron is no longer sitting in front of me, but back at his desk.

"Stand up, Pet," Master Gary orders and as if by magic, everything clicks within me.

There is not an ounce of hesitation and I rise to my feet. He is standing beside me, but he makes me turn to face him, before he lifts my chin up to meet his beautiful brown eyes.

Holy crap!

He is as gorgeous as in my memories! Still the same, despite maybe one or two more wrinkles at the corner of his eyes. He hasn't changed at all physically and this time, it is another part of my anatomy that reacts. My manhood twitches in my shorts at the beautiful sight in front of me; these muscular thighs covered in leather; this powerful bare chest; this perfect man!

"Are you going to say something at last or has Aaron forgotten to tell me you became mute?" he chuckles, smiling warmly at me.

I don't say anything. I just throw myself at him, wrapping my arms around his waist. For a long minute, I let him hug me in silence, reveling in the contact of his skin against mine. His arms closed on my shoulders feel so good. His breath in my hair makes me shiver. His hands caressing my bare back set me on fire. The hard bulge against my lower belly makes me hard as fuck. I just can't explain all the emotions washing over me. There are so many things I would like to do with this body, and yet, I could also stay like this forever.

It seems like Gary and I are lost in the moment.

That's until someone coughs loudly beside us and we pull apart.

"Your membership is now finalized, Gary, and your favorite playroom is booked for the night, so guess what? I'll kick you out of my office because Nigel must be waiting for me and all this sexual tension between you... that's just driving me crazy!" Master Aaron chuckles before he catches my chin between his fingers to make me look up at him.

"Do you agree spending the evening with Gary?" he asks sternly.

"Yes, Master Aaron," I reply in a barely audible voice.

"Good! Let's keep it at that for the moment, then you two should have a serious conversation and maybe agree on a contract. And remember what I told you! Understood?" he asks meaningfully.

"Yes, Master Aaron."

"Enjoy, Buddy," he whispers in my ear as he pulls me into a tight hug.

The two Dominants then share a bear-like embrace, before we all head out. Gary remains silent as he leads me through the corridors to the Black Satin area, and into the private room he rented for the evening. Once there, I stand at attention and wait for a command, but he just goes to stand in front of me and cups my face in his long and warm hands, tilting my head up.

"You're so beautiful. I've missed you so much, you have no idea. And I am so proud of you!" he whispers with so much emotion that new tears fill my eyes. "I am sincerely proud of what you've achieved in two years, Pet. But are you really ready to spend the evening with me?" he then asks with deep concern.

I guess my silence ever since he asked me the first question must have made him doubtful. His hands travel down my body, reaching for my backside and pulling me against him, and I rest mine on his chest for support. Damn! He has kept himself well all this time and I love feeling his pectorals under my palms.

"I've missed you so much, and..." I begin to say to reassure him, but he cuts me.

"Do you agree on spending the night with me, Pet?" he repeats, squeezing my buttocks.

There is so much lust in eyes. By the way I feel his hardness on my lower belly, I can tell he is indeed extremely aroused, but I am in no better state and I am getting really constricted in my shorts.

"Yes, Master!" I breathe out.

A small smirk displays on his face as he pulls away from me.

"We'll do the talking later, then. For now, I just want to enjoy this body I have missed so much and fuck you senseless."

Oh God!! I want that too and so does my cock as it releases a load of precum in my shorts.

"Strip and kneel!"

Well he doesn't need to tell me twice! I swiftly get rid of my shoes and shorts, discarding them on a chair, then return to face him and drop to my knees at display. I can hear his breathing get heavier while I feel him stare at me for the longest time. The anticipation is just horrible! I can feel his eyes wandering all over my naked body. My little soldier is proudly pointing at him, begging for some attention. He eventually kicks off his boots and his trousers, then walks closer to me.

"Someone has been missing that sassy mouth and its skilled tongue, Pet," he says meaningfully, in the most suave tone I have ever heard.

I get the message alright and when I peek up, I am met with his beautiful and very hard shaft that seems to require some attention! There's no hesitation and I immediately set to work on it, keeping my fingers laced behind my back.

Damn! This is bigger than Ed's cock!

I begin to tease the head, running the tip of my tongue over the slit to lap the precum, and then all over the sensitive skin, insisting on the contours of the mushroom. Gary's groans are encouraging so I eventually take him in my mouth, looking up at him at the same time. His eyes are burning with heat while I bob my head back and forth, and apply myself to use my tongue along the veins of his shaft.

"Oh fuck! You're so good, Pet!" he grunts, taking control of my head as he grabs the mope of my hair and begins to thrust in and out of my mouth.

From then, it doesn't take long before his member swells a bit more and explodes at the back of my throat. His cum still tastes so good that it's a pleasure to swallow it all.

"Mmh that was great, Pet! How are you feeling down there?" he then asks huskily.

That's when I realize my throbbing erection is begging for more than a little attention, the head almost purple, and a little pool of precum has formed on the floor.

"Please, Master..." I just say and before I know it, I find myself lying on the bed with Gary kneeling between my parted legs.

As soon as he takes me into his mouth, my balls tighten and I scream through a powerful orgasm, unable to hold it back for another second.

Uh oh. What a great start! I didn't even wait for his permission!! I can't believe it! I am so screwed!!

"I... I'm sorry, Master..." I plead while he milks me dry, but when he eventually lets go of my member and scoots to hover over me, his expression displays no anger of any sort; just more lust!

"Someone was eager..." he teases me before his lips crash on mine and his tongue dips into my mouth for the most passionate kiss.

At last! I have missed this so much! Our wet muscles swirl together in a beautiful accord, his obviously dominating mine. I can feel his hands all over my body and I just hang on to his, running my fingers through his soft hair and relishing in our embrace. Soon enough, we are hard again and Gary breaks off our kiss, leaving us panting heavily.

I need more! I need him to fill me up!

"Please, Master... I want you inside of me... please," I beg almost like a whore.

"Your wish is my command, Pet!" he smirks as he grabs the bottle of lube on the nightstand and puts a large amount of the substance in his hand. Never leaving my eyes, he smears it at the crack of my ass before two fingers penetrate me.

"Oh God... it feels good!" I say, parting my legs to give him a better access.

"Relax, Pet!" he whispers as he begins to stroke my new erection, inserting a third finger to stretch me further.

I am so needy that my ring of muscles quickly loosens around his skilled fingers. After a few minutes, and once he feels I am ready, I see him grab a little package and rip it open before he drops the rubber on my stomach.

"Go ahead, Pet!" he orders, so I take the condom, sit up and unroll it on his erection, very slowly.

Once done, he pushes on my shoulders to make me lie down again, adds more lube on his protected shaft, and pulls my legs over his shoulders, resting his hands on either side of me. With lustful eyes, he aligns the tip of his cock with my entrance, lingering there forever.

"I just want to slam into that tight ass of yours..."

"Please, do so, Master..." I reply through my pants.

"Oh I will..." he smirks. "You're going to feel it deep, Pet!"

And without any other warning, he thrusts inside me in one go and to the hilt, rubbing against my sweet spot all the way through. I scream at the pleasurable pain caused by his thickness breaking through my ring of muscles, but mostly at the delicious sensations on my prostate. Gary waits for a few seconds, buried deep inside of me, but my pleading moans quickly encourage him to continue. He leans over a bit more and begins to kiss me gently, at a contrary pace to his hips that are now pounding into me. The result is interesting in terms of emotions. And quite confusing.

The hard pounding conveys a lot of fervor and frenzy, some frustration too, but at the same time, I can feel all his passion and tenderness in the kiss, telling me that he might have really missed me indeed. I just wonder why he didn't want to keep in touch more than that then! We could still have called each other once in a while; like friends. I know our relationship was not one made of love, but it was still strong. I really hope we can get back there at some point.

I am so lost into ourselves right now, greatly enjoying the physical contact with him. I understand that I missed him more than I thought while he was away. I just love everything about him; his tongue swirling with mine; his taut muscles that my hands keep brushing; his rod which gives me so much pleasure; his groans filling my ears. I don't know how long he has been ramming into my ass, but I suddenly realize I am on the verge of bliss. Thank God, it seems like he can still read my moans and body, and just as all my muscles tense, I hear the words that send me over the edge.

"Come with me, Pet!" he groans and there goes the explosion in my lower belly!

My balls tighten painfully as he thrusts one last time, hitting the bundle of nerves that enhances my climax. My seed spurt out of my cock, hitting both his chest and mine. My hole clenches around him, squeezing his shaft so tightly that he grunts through his own orgasm. As he frees my legs, Gary lets himself collapse over me, still withholding most of his weight with his arms.

We remain in this position for a long moment, recovering from our heavy breathing, until he gently pulls out of me and rolls us to our sides, facing each other. The sticky mess between our stomachs doesn't seem to bother him and he just caresses my face with a lot of affection. I can hardly believe he is here, back in Chicago, holding me. I just hope it's not temporary...

"I truly missed you, Jeremy," he whispers.

Jeremy? No Pet?

"I missed you too, Master..."

"Forget about the Master title for now. It's the ex-boyfriend talking at the moment," he says with a warm voice that fills my heart with strong emotions.

A bit of bitterness and anger too. All the sadness I felt after his departure suddenly resurfaces. The grief and frustration I felt both times I received a birthday card without any contact details flood through me.

"Okay... Does this mean I can talk freely?" I reply with a mischievous smile that hides my real purposes.

"As long as you don't go overboard, yes, you can!" he chuckles but his smile soon disappears when he notices my expression has also changed to something more serious.

"I almost hated you during the last two years! Why did you never call me? Why didn't we keep in touch? Why did you never give me your phone number or address to contact you? Why didn't you call me to say you were coming back? Are you even back for good? And when did you come back exactly?" I blurt out with more bitterness than I truly mean.

"That's a lot of questions!!" he exclaims warily.

"Well, I'd like some answers! You owe me that bit!" I reply defiantly.

"And you'll get them..."

"You'd better, cause you owe me that much!" I accuse.

I hate that my tone makes him pull away a little, because all I want is to feel him close to me, but at the same time, my irritation is taking over my affection for him at the moment.

"I moved back to the US last weekend and yes, I am back for good. I did what I had to do in Asia and Pacific, and my father's company is now doing great there. I developed the business like he wanted me to and a couple of months ago, I told him I wanted to go back to the US. It turns out that my brother fucked up once again, ruining the reputation of the company in countries on the American continent, so my father immediately accepted and appointed a new Vice-President in Asia. He also kicked my brother out of the company, so I'll have to work things out here. This means I am back here for good."

"Wow, that's great news!" I can't help exclaiming.

My sourness is trying to take control, but my desire for a potential happy future with Gary is stronger. What he said mostly means we might be able to get back to things where we left them and continue further!

"It is, indeed. And it will be even better if you accept to be my Submissive...? And boyfriend, obviously...?" he says softly.

Of course, I will! But I think he owes me a few more answers first and I am allowed a bit of teasing too.

"I'll think about it," I reply sternly but I think he sees through me.

"I am really proud of what you've done over the past two years. Not so much about the first weeks, but..." he says teasingly.

That bastard of Master Dom!!!

"How do you know? Did Master Aaron rat on me!?" I interrupt him, getting angry again by the second. "So you really kept in touch with him?"

"Hey, calm down!" he grunts, rolling over again to hover over me. "It was a deal we had with Aaron. When I left, he suggested I shouldn't contact you."

"What? But he had no right to do that!!" I scream, slapping my hands on his chest.

"Jer... You have no idea how he was right and don't be mad at him because I totally agreed. Aaron has a lot of affection for you, like he has for all his Subs, but you even more I believe. He wanted you to keep on the right track, and in order to achieve this, you had to move on and accept to be with another Dominant. He thought that if we kept in touch, you would never involve yourself in another relationship like you did with Siegfried and I believe he was right," he explains, pausing for a few seconds.

I think this over and realize it might be true. If Gary had kept bugging my mind, I might have had more difficulty to commit into my relationship with Master Siegfried. But it doesn't ease my exasperation much.

"What was the other side of the deal?" I ask dryly, already knowing the answer.

"Aaron promised he would keep me informed on your progress in return, and that he would always watch over you, twice as hard. So yeah, he told me about these few difficult weeks after my departure. I almost interfered at that moment... I was so close to take a plane and teach you a lesson because you had promised me you'd behave..." he says with deep disappointment in his voice and that makes me lower my eyes.

"I'm sorry..."

"It's okay, Baby. I know it wasn't easy and I'm really glad Aaron dealt with the situation. And I'll never say it enough, but I am truly proud of you for the following months. You did really great!"

"Master Siegfried helped a lot..." I mumble, peeking up at him.

The fondness in his eyes almost makes me melt, just as much as the kiss that follows. I suddenly realize that he never ceased to care for me and that it must have been so hard for him too... He's definitely forgiven!

"Yes, I heard that..." he replies in a smug tone when he breaks our kiss.

This makes me blush deeply because I don't know how much Master Aaron told him. Did he mention all the kinky scenes I played with Master Siegfried? Did he tell him about the freaking gangbang!!!?

"It seems like..." he trails off, nibbling on my lips, "that gangbang... was... hot..."

Oh Gosh! So he knows about that too!

"It was..." I breathe out.

His teeth grazing my jawline then my earlobe send shocks of electricity to my groin, making me hard again.

"Don't count on me to reproduce this anytime soon, Pet," he whispers in my ear.

Oh, so we're back into the Dominant / Submissive mode...

"Maybe when we renew our contract in three months, Master..." I suggest mischievously, yet knowing Gary would never go that far in my fantasies.

Or maybe he would, after a lot of convincing. Even if he never lets me experience another gangbang, I wouldn't mind. This was a fantasy I had, I absolutely loved it, but I can do without another one.

"Hmm... I thought you need reflection, but you're already talking about renewing our contract?" he teases as his teeth trace another path back toward my mouth.

"I've thought about it enough already. I accept to become your Submissive again, Master!"

That has him stop his teasing and stare down at me.

"We'll have to discuss a lot then, make things clear. I don't think my rules have changed, but I'll have to fix you new goals, redefine our limits... the usual stuff!"

"My tastes haven't changed that much," I smirk at him.

"Neither have mine, but we'll still have to discuss. I need to travel to Argentina and Brazil this coming week, but I'll be back on Friday. I think I could get the contract ready tomorrow and you'd have until Friday to think about it. How does that sound?"

"Sounds good, Master!"

"But I'm not sharing you until at least the next contract!" he warns me.

This was expected...

"Do we really need to do the three months, then six..."

"Yes, we do. We have plenty of time ahead of us and I want to do things right," he replies firmly. "Anyway, enough talking for now," he then adds in his deepest voice. "We'll talk more tomorrow. Right now, I need a second round in your cute little ass... then a third... then a fourth... then a fifth..."

Between each, he pecks my lips lightly, rubbing his erection against mine.

"I'm going to fuck you all night long and make sure your hole reminds you who's your Master all of next week."

"Promises, promises..."

Well, Gary is a man of words, so I trust him to keep his promise. As he flips me around to lie on my stomach and just before he starts pounding into me again, I realize that I am one lucky bastard. The most gorgeous man I have ever known and been with is back in town, and he still wants me as his Submissive.

Oh I'm sure he won't make things easy for me, and we'll have to discuss plenty of things, but I already know I will certainly accept any of his requests. This British sex god is all mine and I truly hope that fate will make us fall in love, deep and hard!

Published on 25 January 2018

Hope you enjoyed this hopeful chapter after all the darkness of the past few ones! Some might criticize Aaron on breeching the confidence regarding what happens at the club and you could be right. You'll have his POV on this in his first book, but what I can say is that he really has a strong relationship with Gary and Jeremy, and that he wouldn't have done this with any other Dom.

So Gary is back and as you can imagine, we're almost reaching the beginning of the "present" with Jeremy's abduction. This means that there is only one flashback left that occurred before the events and then the book will continue with a normal timeline.

Fair warning, the next chapter is the darkest of all in terms of emotions, so be prepared... And it is important to know that it takes place just after Noah's first public performance at the club in June 2015, the weekend @Fhanth's Ethan and Anthony were visiting from New York.
