First I want to thank all that read, reviewed, subscribed, and liked my story. Again thank you so much to my wonderful friend and Beta Rae D. Magdon. I promise some kink in this chapter but this training will take time and patience. If you can't wait, maybe you need some training too… It will be worth the wait.

Chapter 2

Olivia set her drink on Elizabeth's desk as the two dominant personalities shared a rare lunch together. Unfortunately, Liz's new position as Bureau Chief prevented her from seeing Olivia as often as she would like. Leaning back in her seat, the detective crossed her legs and got to the point of the lunch meeting: their literal 'Pet Project.'

"Liz, I think it's time to really start her true training."

"Oh? Why the sudden decision to start it now?" Elizabeth asked.

"Well, you know that Turner case that we got called in on a few days ago? The false alarm with the S&M couple that the neighbors mistook for abuse? Let's just say that our little ADA made some assumptions and judgments about them," the Detective explained.

A glare appeared on the Bureau Chief's face. Liz took a deep breath before responding. "She did, did she? I warned her about doing those things. I thought we were finally getting through to her and repairing the damage her mother taught her about alternative lifestyles. What did she say, Olivia?"

A smirk crossed Liv's features as she explained Alex's opinions about the case from earlier.

***Earlier in the week***

Alex watched from the observation room as Fin and Munch joked with the Turners. The team had been called in to a domestic disturbance by a neighbor. The husband was accused of physically abusing his wife and treating her as property. The cops were called found the husband spanking his wife with a paddle and her tied up with a gag. They were brought in and the wife defended her husband's actions, admitting that they were just role-playing.

Alex tried to understand, fighting her upbringing, but there was a constant battle in her head. She could not let go of her mother's words, but her own feelings were winning the fight right now. She licked her lips as the husband and wife explained their relationship openly, even laughing at some story involving ropes and getting stuck in a position. Her face flushed, heart races, and breath quickens. And although never admit it, her arousal thickens and she feels the pooling between her thighs. 'They look like normal people, and they are showing they are in love with each other. Holding hands, smiling, fleeting glances. But mom said all these kind of people are freaks. I don't understand.'

Olivia watched from the door, making sure the young blonde attorney she had been hunting didn't know she was there. 'I knew it! She loves hearing about this kind of relationship. Look at her fidget and lick her lips. She is flushing terribly and can barely breathe.' The detective coughed slightly, making her presence known.

Alex jumped up, blushing hard in embarrassment when she saw the woman that so often consumed her thoughts. 'Why can't I stop thinking about Olivia? Why can't I stop wanting to let her take control of me?' When Alex tried to cover her surprise with an icy mask, Olivia noticed a change in atmosphere. Alex's desire turned to arrogance and disgust.

"They are perverts! Can't they just have a normal relationship? I mean, come on, ropes, cuffs, he makes her kneel at his feet, he is disgusting. Why would she let him do that? Is she stupid?" Alex would have gone on and on, but Olivia stopped mid stride and shook her head.

"Grow up, Alex," the elder woman scolded. 'What the hell happened?' Olivia wondered in disappointment. 'One second she is about to cream her panties, the next she is a frigid bitch.'

"Excuse me, Detective?"

"I said grow up, Counselor." The detective countered, not at all intimidated by Alex's steely blue eyes.

Alex's jaw dropped. She had never lost an argument with anyone but her mother. Olivia was not backing down.

"People have sex. People have weird sex. People have sex in public places. Some like to be tied up, spanked, wear costumes, use food, and some like to be treated like a pet or slave. Get the silver spoon out of your ass and step down from your pedestal."

"Yes, Olivia, people have sex, but it's not natural to do it like that. It is about love and having children, not some game. Only perverts and the insane enjoy kink. It is just wrong," Alex said without even missing a beat.

"Oh really, Alex? And when did you become the spokesperson for the what's right and wrong? Let me guess, you must hate anything lower than your standards, and anything different must be evil. Want a bible to thump me and the Turners with?" Olivia said accusingly.

"I don't hate anyone but the rapists and killers in this world. Those who think they can take everything they want and not care about anything but their own wants and needs." The young counselor explained. "They disgust me."

"Just like the Turners disgust you?"

"No, they aren't the same."

"You just said they disgusted you, just like the rapists and killers disgust you."

"It's different."

"Exactly! Alex, how can you judge these people like those that rape, molest, and kill? They do this out of love, respect, enjoyment and trust. You don't place yourself in a situation like that unless you love and trust your partner with all your heart and soul." The detective pled her case.

Alex's eyebrows furrowed in confusion. 'She talks about this like she knows… I guess it would involve respect and trust to allow someone to take control. To lose yourself in the moment and let someone take you over. Trust someone so with all your being. To love someone that much…' A moment of understanding flashed in her eyes, and Olivia did not miss it.

'There she is. There is the real Alex. My pet.'

The moment of understanding was quickly replaced by an expression of judgment and disgust. 'There is the other Alex, the pain in my ass. I can't wait to take it out on her."

"I was raised in a decent household and my mother taught me what is right and wrong. That is wrong. Now, if you will excuse me, I have to go back to work. I don't have time to discuss... that." Alex couldn't even bring herself to say the words. She blushes even thinking about it. Not in hatred but in being ashamed. 'Why do I have to find her, this, so intoxicating?' Alex thought as she walked away from the one person she wanted to be around.

Olivia watched as Alex stomped off. Frustration gathered in her face. 'That explains a lot. She was engrained to think anything different than what she has been taught is evil or not natural. I am going to have to talk to Liz about this. I know I saw something in her eyes as the Turners explained their relationship. It wasn't disgust, that was arousal.'

***Back in Elizabeth's office***

"Do you think we need to introduce Alex to the Club? Get her involved now to teach her everything about kink and S&M, then after training we can sponsor her into membership?" Olivia asked.

"Not yet. We need to guide her into this slowly. Unlike you, Alex will need a nudge and not a kick in the ass," Elizabeth explained, teasing Liv slightly.

The brunette smiled faintly at the older blonde, remembering their past relationship. "You are right; I was a wild horse that needed to be broken quickly. I was already looking for that type of relationship before realizing what I was getting into. If it wasn't for you, either myself or someone else would have gotten really hurt and scared."

"Olivia, you made a few mistakes, but you learned wonderfully. I knew even when I took you under my wing that you weren't sub material. Don't get me wrong, you were a great sub, but you are a Dominant at heart."

"I can't thank you enough, Elizabeth. For everything."

"You are very welcome, Olivia. But you still have a few lessons to learn."

"Again with this Liz? I don't have time for love. Why are you pushing me finding a soul mate?" The detective whined.

"Olivia, you may not be my pet anymore, but you will respect me. I know what you need, and I can already tell you are in love." Liz explained. "I know she has only been your ADA for a few months, but you talk about Alex all the time. Your whole demeanor lifts and takes on a joy that you never had with Abbie, or even me."

Olivia realized she had better keep her mouth shut. 'Yes, I am not her pet anymore, but she always knows what I need. But love?' She fidgeted in the seat as Liz fixed her Mistress glare on her former pet. "I am not…"

"Don't lie, Olivia, I thought I made this clear a long time ago…"

***A Year and a Half Ago***

The scene had been set up, the crowd was watching and Olivia was already strung up on the whipping post. Her bronze skin glistened with oils, and her muscles were loose and relaxed, ready for the onslaught of strikes from Elizabeth's whip. 'It always make me laugh when people mistake this whipping with real whipping. This does not break the skin, not a punishment but a release. It makes you bleed emotionally.'

When Liz had first taken Olivia to the Club, they had watched a whipping scene involving a sub and her Master. Liz took the time to make Olivia watch every strike and moan. Then, she brought Liv to the private room and explained what the whipping meant. That people like being whipped in a variety of ways and reasons. That is was not punishment and never should be.

Finally, one day Olivia asked Liz to whip her. Elizabeth was not against the idea, but was interested in why Olivia wanted it. Hesitantly, the young brunette explained her past and her struggles with acceptance. She explained how she took each case personally and could not let go. She could not find a release. She thought the whipping would help cleanse her of her guilt and release her frustrations. Elizabeth was worried at first, and tried once again to explain that it was not a punishment, but Olivia offered a rejoinder. It was not to punish her, but to focus and let her emotions out with the physical shock of the whip.

Elizabeth agreed to try it, and soon it became a regular scene between the two, but Liz could see that the tension never fully left Olivia's body. The detective had never been in control of anything in her life until she left for college, but she would never let herself go. She would never let herself take charge like she wanted for fear of becoming her father. She was a Dominant trying to be a sub. Liz saw this, but she needed Olivia to realize it first.

The scene had been set up, the crowd was watching, Olivia was strung between the posts just as she had been countless times before. But as she felt her Mistress approach from behind, a sudden sadness clenched at her heart. It didn't feel right. She wasn't afraid, but she couldn't go through with the whipping. Not this time.

Feeling confused and more than a little guilty, Olivia did something had never done before… She used her safe word.

There was a pause.

With steady hands, Elizabeth unbound Olivia's wrists before bending over to free her ankles. Then, ignoring the whispering crowd, she guided her pet out of the room, wrapping a protective arm around her shoulders.

Liz hurried Olivia down a hallway and into her private rooms, closing the door behind them. She unclipped the leash, motioning for the young brunette to kneel as she sat on the edge of the bed. Olivia's naked body reflected the light from the fireplace, but the fire in Olivia's eyes was dimming.

"What is wrong, my pet?" Elizabeth asked, scared that Olivia was too far gone. She had always worried about Olivia's past and the effect an S&M relationship might have on her psyche, but she thought it was going fine, until now.

"I can't be your sub anymore," Olivia said with sadness woven into her words.

The Mistress sighed, disappointed at losing her pet, but hoping that Olivia had finally realized her true place. "Why?"

"I was never meant to be a sub," Olivia said, her eyes lifted to her Mistress, an action that would be quickly punished if not for the fact that Liz was proud that her sub had finally realized she was really a Domme.

"I know, Olivia."

"You knew?" Confusion filled the detective's eyes.

"Yes," Donnelly said as she pulled Olivia up onto the bed, sitting her on the edge of the mattress. "You are a Domme. There is nothing wrong with that. You were scared that you couldn't control your feelings, but Olivia, just because you want to be in control doesn't mean you want to rape and hurt people. It just makes you … you. You can be the woman you want to be. Look at me. I never once made you feel violated, right?"

Olivia smiled and nodded her head in agreement.

"You enjoy kink, and you need to be in control because you never felt in control."

Olivia nodded again, smiling even harder when she realized how well Liz knew her.

"Nothing is wrong with that. Some of us are Doms, some are subs, and others can switch. Olivia, you will be a wonderful Mistress, and any woman will be lucky to have you. You have so much to give someone. Let yourself be loved. That is my only advice. Don't just do this for fun, do it for love."

Doubt filled Olivia's eyes. Love seemed like something she didn't deserve, but Elizabeth would make sure Olivia found her soul mate.

"Olivia, before I release you… you know you lied to me all this time, right?" Elizabeth knew she really did not have the right anymore, since Olivia had said she was no longer Liz's sub, 'but I have to let my hand feel that wonderful ass once last time and light it up.'

Smirking at her former Mistress, Olivia knew that this was more of a request than an order, but one more spanking would not hurt. "Yes, Ma'am." Moving softly but gracefully, Olivia laid across her Mistress's lap, arching her back to raise her ass in the air for inspection.

Giggling lightly, Elizabeth traces her pet's curves and muscles once last time before sliding her hand through the silken folds of her pet's glistening folds. A soft moan escaped both their lips, and Elizabeth pinched Olivia's clit in a joking warning that she was the one still in charge for the moment. Her pet knew her place and bit her lip.

After teasing Olivia's clit and moving the moisture around all her fingers, Elizabeth moved them to Liv's lips, waiting for them to be cleaned. Her pet wrapped her lips around her Mistress's fingers, tasting her own flavor on her tongue. Liz slowly pulled her finger free with a pop, as she moved her other hand over Olivia's deliciously presented ass, lightly rubbing and pinching the globes of flesh to awaken nerves and get the blood flowing.

Raising her hand, Liz waited for a moment to let the tension build.

SMACK

A hard hit on the right cheek made Olivia's body shudder and tense for a moment. Liz raised her hand again and swung it down to strike the left cheek.

SMACK

A squeal escaped her pet's lips as she continued to rain down blows upon the swelling flesh, now a bright red. Moving her other hand between Olivia's thighs, Elizabeth started to finger her pet's swollen sex, spreading the moisture around.

SMACK… one finger slowly slid into her pet… SMACK... Olivia arched into her Mistress's hands, pushing the finger deeper into herself… SMACK… Liz curled her finger, finding that special spongy spot that drove her pet wild… SMACK… a scream ripped from Olivia's throat as pain and pleasure mixed into bliss… SMACK… one last spank fell after her pet's orgasm. Elizabeth slowly unbuckled her pet's collar, wiping away a discreet tear of sadness even as she smiled.

***Back in the Office ***

"Okay, fine. You literally know me inside and out, and you read me like a book. I am in love with her already. So, what are we going to do about it? How am I going to win her heart and not just make her my pet?" Olivia admitted, actually frightened. 'I really want Alex's heart more than anything. Having her as my pet would just be a bonus.'

Elizabeth walked over to Olivia, pulling her into a hug and giving her a kiss on the cheek. Looking into Olivia's eyes, she smiled. "Trust me, Olivia. I have a plan all worked out. I have done this before for Abbie, and look how her relationship with Serena turned out. It will work. Now, this is what I want you to do. I am sending Alex on a little errand…"

Alex shifted nervously in her seat as Donnelly finished her phone call. Whomever she was talking to had said something to upset her. 'Wouldn't want to be on the end of her wrath right now,' Alex thought

"Miss Cabot said what?" Liz shouted.

A shiver shot down Alex's spine when she heard her name being mentioned. 'Oh shit… I am on the end of it.'

Liz smirked to herself. No one was really on the phone. She had gotten all the dirt about how Alex acted today from Olivia. Liv was a great detective, picking up on all the hidden signs beneath Alex's rant about the case. What was the old Shakespeare quote? 'The lady doth protest too much, methinks.' It explained Alex's views on S&M kink perfectly. She would have to learn to hide her cards better... and perhaps a lesson in humility would serve her well, too. 'Olivia was right, it really is time to take the next step into Alex's training. The lawyer phase was on the right path. In just a few more years, Alex would be one of the best in the business. Now, it was time to turn to the bedroom and Olivia's heart.

"Don't worry, Miss Cabot will be reprimanded. This will not be tolerated in this office and will not happen again." Donnelly continued her conversation turning her glare toward the now frightened young attorney. "Again you have my deepest apology. I will make sure that Miss Cabot writes a letter of apology before her position in this office is terminated. Goodbye." The Bureau Chief slammed her phone hanging up her false conversation that the young woman in front of her bought hook, line, and sinker.

Alex gasped at her boss's decision. 'My career is already over? Why? Because of how I reacted at the 1-6 with the Turners?' Trying very hard not to cry and keep a professional demeanor, Alex started to fight for her job. "Elizabeth, please let me explain…"

"Don't bother, Alexandra, and its Chief Donnelly to you. Well, actually its Miss Donnelly, since you are no longer employed here. I warned you Miss Cabot. This office does not tolerate your actions. Your intolerance is an embarrassment and you should be extremely ashamed of yourself. I am very disappointed in you. I thought you had learned to not judge others just because you might not agree with their life style or choices." The elder blonde scolded the younger woman just like a child.

"But those kinds of people are evil just like the monsters we prosecute. They have to abuse and tie each other up just to be able to have sex. That's... disgusting." Alex tried to explain.

"Disgusting? Evil? What is disgusting, Miss Cabot, is your attitude toward beliefs. You should know by now that this world is already full of hatred and pain, I don't need you contributing any to this office. Look in the mirror sometime to see someone filled with hate toward others that are different." Elizabeth was disgusted with Alex right now. 'Whatever her mother taught her about prejudgment is a cancer. I know Olivia said Alex had an aroused reaction to the Turners' description of their sex life, but right now we need to fix this immediately.' Taking a deep breath, Liz continued her assault on the now cowering girl. "I expect you to write a letter of apology to the Turners, the detectives, and Captain Cragen at the 1-6, as well as one for myself and this office. Now get out of my office and pack up yours." Liz could have won an Oscar for her performance right now.

Alex fought to keep her tears from falling as she pled her case. "Ma'am, please, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to offend anyone. I can do this job, I have proven it. Please just give me another chance. I will apologize to the Turners, the 1-6, and to you… I will do anything, just please let me make you proud again and show I can learn."

Seconds seemed like hours as the two women sat in quiet tension. Donnelly's eyes bored a hole into Alex, leaving the young attorney feeling exposed. "Anything? You will do anything to keep your job? Only a whore offers to do anything. Are you a whore, Alex?" Donnelly felt like teasing her before letting her off the hook.

"No Ma'am, I… I didn't mean it like that." A deep blush coloring Alex's face but Liz saw the young woman's eyes widen for a moment in arousal.

'Olivia was right, she is kinky. She hides it behind the wall of ignorance her parents built around her. But she falls into her role during stress and fear, calling me Ma'am and begging.' "I think you did," one last shot before going into the plan, she fell right into our trap. "Okay, one last chance. Since you're so ignorant, I guess I have to educate you." Taking a note from her notepad, Elizabeth wrote down an address and a list of items. "Go to this address and pick up these items. All of them… You are then going to take them home and… educate yourself with them. Your job depends on it." Donnelly says with a smirk.

Alex reached for the list, happy that it looked like she was going to keep her job. If it meant running errands and picking up a few items for Elizabeth, fine. That was a small price to pay in order to save her career. Taking a look at the list and the items, Alex's jaw dropped. "I have to go where? Get what? Oh my god, no way, Liz. It's not appropriate to send an employee to a place like …that, and get these… things."

Elizabeth continued, smirking. "Do it, or you're fired."

"You can't do that. You can't fire me if I don't do this."

"Technically, you're fired right now. This is to get your job back. You have to learn tolerance for this life style, and there is no better place to learn than there. You will now write an apology to the Turners and your colleagues at the 1-6, then you will write a report about what you learned for me. You'd better go now, and if I don't get your letters and report… you don't have a job. You are dismissed." Elizabeth pointed Alex out the door.

"Yes, Ma'am," Alex responded, biting her tongue to keep from voicing more objections. Looking at the list, then again to her Bureau Chief, Alex swallowed her pride and rose from her seat. The only sound came from her heels on the hard wood floor, she mentally prepared herself to complete her humiliating homework assignment.

Alex stepped nervously into the alternative lifestyle shop, not realizing that a pair of highly trained eyes was watching, studying her movements and reactions. 'God, what am I doing here? This is not what I signed up for when I asked for sex crimes. I know that people do this, but it is just wrong. My mom taught me that. Elizabeth can't expect me to buy this stuff in my position. If anyone found out about this, I can kiss my political career goodbye.' Alex walked quietly, averting her eyes from all the workers even though she was already wearing a pair of sunglasses and pulling her coat collar up to hide. She thought she was being sneaky, but of course, she was only bringing more attention to herself this way.

The girl behind the counter smiled to herself, shaking her head. She could spot a newbie a mile away. Turning her eyes toward the entrance, she saw a familiar customer. She opened her mouth to say hi, but the customer put her fingers to her lips, pointing silently to Alex. The girl nodded her head and let the customers wait to ask for help.

Alex looked around quickly, trying to find everything on Donnelly's list. Grab it, buy it, and get the hell out of here. Stopping near a section labeled for videos and books, Alex looked for anything dealing with BDSM and S&M, not even wanting to touch the covers. 'But why? Why is it bad? The Turners seemed to be enjoying themselves, and Olivia told me that there is a huge difference between rape and kink play. Mom said that kink was just as bad. And why did Liz send me here? I know she said it was for research. If you want to talk about it and prosecute it, you have to know all about it. No surprises, but why do I have to buy all this?' Alex frowned at the list. It was actually not that long, but just the few words on it seemed like a lot to her.

"Alex?" A voice calling out to her made the blonde's stomach drop and her heart stop in her chest. 'Someone recognized me, oh god… I know that voice.' Alex just wanted to die right there. Crawl in a hole and die.

"Hey, Cabot!" the voice yelled as everyone turned to look at her.

'Why? Why does she always have to say my full name? My life is ruined already.' Slowly, Alex turned toward the voice and the familiar beautiful butch detective. The blonde's heart skipped a beat when she saw Olivia's crooked smile directed towards her. Those dark brown eyes looking at her. And now strong arms wrapping her in a hug...

'She is hugging me! Wait, I can't feel this way. I can't feel like this. Oh god, I want to, though. She probably isn't interested in me anyway. She doesn't even know I am really gay. She's never even spoke to me about the fake date I was on with Trevor Langan.'

"Alex, what are you doing here? I thought you had court today?" Olivia purposely asked in a loud voice, knowing full well that Alex didn't have court.

"No, the trial was put on hold until Friday due to an emergency with the judge," Alex answered quietly, hoping Olivia would follow her lead and lower the volume of her voice.

"Okay, but why are you in a sex toy shop? I thought you said anyone that buys this stuff is sick?" The detective looked around at everyone as they turned to hear the conversation. The girl behind the counter giggled as she realized that this must be Olivia's new project.

Using her knowledge from law school and the courts, Alex tried to redirect the conversation. "I didn't say sick, just perverted. And I could ask you the same thing, Olivia, what are you doing here?"

Olivia laughed on the inside. "I was walking to the deli for lunch saw you across the street and was going to invite you with me and followed you in. Alex, were you lying back there with the Turners? It's okay, you know, to like this kind of stuff. I am not judging you. Everyone has their kinks." Olivia asked sincerely. 'I wish she would just let it go. I hate that she was taught that wanting to lose control and try this stuff was evil. Her reaction to the Turners was personal. She wouldn't let it go. That was not her saying it, but the line she was taught to say.'

"I'm not into this stuff, Olivia."

Olivia laughed out loud. "Don't lie to me, Alex Cabot. And what is this?" She grabbed the list out of Alex's hands.

"Damnit, Liv, keep your voice down and give that back" the blonde pleaded.

"Are you embarrassed? Why? I told you it's no big deal. Hey, everyone this is my friend Alex Cabot, she is here to get…" Looks down at the list and starts reading out loud. "An S&M porn DVD, 'The Training of the Shrew', a dildo, a rabbit vibrator, some cuffs and restraints, and lastly a book on bondage and BDSM." Olivia shouted to the couple of other females, couples and worker.

"Olivia!" Alex turned away quickly, hiding her face, almost on the verge of tears.

"Alex, look around," Olivia moved her hand to Alex's face, guiding it up until they were looking at each other. The lawyer's eyes shimmered with unshed tears as the detective tried to comfort her. "No one is judging you. They are in here for the same reason you are. It's okay, Alex. Just let go, please. Just let me take care of everything and you don't need to worry anymore. I promise that no one will ever judge and hurt you. I won't let them. Okay?"

The brunette wiped the stray tear that fell down Alex's cheek and smiled when she saw the attorney smile just for a moment before hiding again. 'There is my little pet, quit hiding and come to me.'

"Okay." Alex quietly agrees to first get out of here quickly but because she can't say no to Olivia. 'She already owns my heart, even if she doesn't know it.' She handed Olivia the list that Liz had given her.

"Let's go shopping. I know some great S&M toys that feel amazing, and I will teach you some great tips," Olivia said, pulling the stunned blonde further into the store before Alex had the chance to ask how Olivia knew about all this.

We will explore further into Olivia's and Liz's past relationship as the story goes. I will also explain "The Club" with its rules, regulations, and codes. I love all the reviews. I can't believe how many already, it means so much, and any ideas, wants, or kinks you feel want to be including please ask. Thank you again for Rae and all her help. Happy Kinky early bday!

Next chapter, Olivia and Alex's Kinky shopping adventure!
