Book Overview

Samuel

My life has been lived bloody sub-zero. A cold, unforgiving existence. I’ve seen and done things that would break a man if they ever survived those things in the first place. If I didn’t have my past, I wouldn’t have a single thing I now have. Not now, and probably not in the foreseeable future. Possibly Not. A... t. All. My kind of sins cannot be atoned for and in the libertine depths of despair where I come from, nothing can pluck me out and elevate me from them.

There’s only one thing I desperately desire but which I or anyone else has ever given me: predominance. My sharpest pleasures arise from the imagination and when I torment and whip my Slave, her body is the church where I revere Nature.

So as soon as I saw Linnea walk through the halls of Club Lustrum, something inside my cold heart began to make the icicles drip.

Until she later made Three. Fatal. Mistakes. It’s not a game; there’s no walking away; she shouldn’t even have thought these things in the first place.


Linnea
I haven’t felt the sting of a whip yet. But I really want to. I crave it like a baby its missing mother. But I haven’t taken that plunge. Not yet. So right now, I’m just observing the games. Or so I tell myself.

Then I watch a woman whipped until tears are falling down her cheeks, her arse bright red from the lashes. Yet she leans into them, begs for more. And her Master gives her what he feels she needs. When he finally takes her, it’s with a savagery that makes me desire the same ruthless touch. It’s almost as if I’ve consumed a powerful drug and I’m getting high.

Club Lustrum does that to people. You get intoxicated with lust, power and sex. Could it be more than just a game? I should have known the answer when my Master told me that you must do violence to the object of your desire so that when she surrenders, the pleasure is greater. Known, when he said that by giving me immense psychological torment and unbearable physical pain, he was caring and feeling the most deeply he could for me.
