THE PARTIES AGREE AS FOLLOWS1 The following are the terms of a binding contract between the Dominant and the Submissive.
FUNDAMENTAL TERMS2 The fundamental purpose of this contract is to allow the Submissive to explore her sensuality and her limits safely, with due respect and regard for her needs, her limits, and her well-being.
3 The Dominant and the Submissive agree and acknowledge that all that occurs under the terms of this contract will be consensual, confidential, and subject to the agreed limits and safety procedures set out in this contract. Additional limits and safety procedures may be agreed in writing.
4 The Dominant and the Submissive each warrant that they suffer from no sexual, serious, infectious, or life-threatening illnesses, including but not limited to HIV, herpes, and hepatitis. If during the Term (as defined below) or any extended term of this contract either party should be diagnosed with or become aware of any such illness, he or she undertakes to inform the other immediately and in any event prior to any form of physical contact between the parties.
5 Adherence to the above warranties, agreements, and undertakings (and any additional limits and safety procedures agreed under clause 3 above) are fundamental to this contract. Any breach shall render it void with immediate effect and each party agrees to be fully responsible to the other for the consequence of any breach.
6 Everything in this contract must be read and interpreted in the light of the fundamental purpose and the fundamental terms set out in clauses 2–5 above.
ROLES
7 The Dominant shall take responsibility for the well-being and the proper training, guidance, and discipline of the Submissive. He shall decide the nature of such training, guidance, and discipline and the time and place of its administration, subject to the agreed terms, limitations, and safety procedures set out in this contract or agreed additionally under clause 3 above.
8 If at any time the Dominant should fail to keep to the agreed terms, limitations, and safety procedures set out in this contract or agreed additionally under clause 3 above, the Submissive is entitled to terminate this contract forthwith and to leave the service of the Dominant without notice.
9 Subject to that proviso and to clauses 2–5 above, the Submissive is to serve and obey the Dominant in all things. Subject to the agreed terms, limitations, and safety procedures set out in this contract or agreed additionally under clause 3 above, she shall without query or hesitation offer the Dominant such pleasure as he may require and she shall accept without query or hesitation his training, guidance, and discipline in whatever form it may take.
COMMENCEMENT AND TERM10 The Dominant and Submissive enter into this contract on the Commencement Date fully aware of its nature and undertake to abide by its conditions without exception.
11 This contract shall be effective for a period of three calendar months from the Commencement Date ("the Term"). On the expiry of the Term the parties shall discuss whether this contract and the arrangements they have made under this contract are satisfactory and whether the needs of each party have been met. Either party may propose the extension of this contract subject to adjustments to its terms or to the arrangements they have made under it. In the absence of agreement to such extension this contract shall terminate and both parties shall be free to resume their lives separately.

13 The Dominant reserves the right to dismiss the Submissive from his service at any time and for any reason. The Submissive may request her release at any time, such request to be granted at the discretion of the Dominant subject only to the Submissive's rights under clauses 2–5 and 8 above.
LOCATION
14 The Submissive will make herself available during the Allotted Times and agreed additional times at locations to be determined by the Dominant. The Dominant will ensure that all travel costs incurred by the Submissive for that purpose are met by the Dominant.

Both parties accept that certain matters may arise that are not covered by the terms of this contract or the service provisions, or that certain matters may be renegotiated. In such circumstances, further clauses may be proposed by way of amendment. Any further clauses or amendments must be agreed, documented, and signed by both parties and shall be subject to the fundamental terms set out under clauses 2–5 above.
DOMINANT
15.1 The Dominant shall make the Submissive's health and safety a priority at all times. The Dominant shall not at any time require, request, allow, or demand the Submissive to participate at the hands of the Dominant in the activities detailed in Appendix 2 or in any act that either party deems to be unsafe. The Dominant will not undertake or permit to be undertaken any action which could cause serious injury or any risk to the Submissive's life. The remaining subclauses of this clause 15 are to be read subject to this proviso and to the fundamental matters agreed in clauses 2–5 above.

15.6 In training and in the administration of discipline the Dominant shall ensure that no permanent marks are made upon the Submissive's body nor any injuries incurred that may require medical attention.
15.7 In training and in the administration of discipline the Dominant shall ensure that the discipline and the instruments used for the purposes of discipline are safe, shall not be used in such a way as to cause serious harm, and shall not in any way exceed the limits defined and detailed in this contract.

SAFEWORDS
18 The Dominant and the Submissive recognize that the Dominant may make demands of the Submissive that cannot be met without incurring physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, or other harm at the time the demands are made to the Submissive. In such circumstances related to this, the Submissive may make use of a safeword ("the Safeword[s]"). Two Safewords will be invoked depending on the severity of the demands.
19 The Safeword "Yellow" will be used to bring to the attention of the Dominant that the Submissive is close to her limit of endurance.
20 The Safeword "Red" will be used to bring to the attention of the Dominant that the Submissive cannot tolerate any further demands. When this word is said, the Dominant's action will cease completely with immediate effect.

Holy fuck. I can't bring myself to even consider the food list. I swallow hard, my mouth dry, and read it again.
My head is buzzing. How can I possibly agree to all this? And apparently it's for my benefit, to explore my sensuality, my limits, safely, oh, please! I scoff angrily. Serve and obey in all things. All things! I shake my head in disbelief. Actually, don't the marriage vows use those words…obey? This throws me. Do couples still say that? Only three months. Is that why there have been so many? He doesn't keep them for long? Or have they had enough after three months? Every weekend? That's too much. I'll never see Evie or whatever friends I may make at my new job, provided I get one. Perhaps I should have one weekend a month to myself. Perhaps when I have my period…that sounds…practical. He's my master! I'm to be dealt with as he pleases! Holy shit.
I shudder at the thought of being flogged or whipped. Spanking probably wouldn't be so bad; humiliating, though. And tied up? Well, he did tie my hands together. That was…well, it was hot, really hot, so perhaps that won't be so bad. He won't loan me to another Dominant—damn right he won't. That would be totally unacceptable. Why am I even thinking about this?
I can't look him in the eye. How weird is that? The only way I ever have any chance to see what he's thinking. Actually, who am I kidding? I never know what he's thinking, but I like looking into his eyes. He has beautiful eyes—captivating, intelligent, deep, and dark, dark with dominant secrets. I recall his burning smoky gaze and press my thighs together, squirming.
And I can't touch him. Well, no surprise there. And these silly rules…No, no, I can't do this. I put my head in my hands. This is no way to have a relationship. I need some sleep. I'm shattered. All the physical shenanigans I've been engaged in over the last twenty-four hours have been, frankly, exhausting. And mentally…oh, man, this is so much to handle. As Carlos would say, a real mind-fuck. Perhaps in the morning this might not read like a bad joke.
I scramble up and change quickly. Perhaps I should borrow Evie's green flannel pajamas. I want something cuddly and reassuring around me. I head to the bathroom in my T-shirt and sleep shorts and brush my teeth.
I stare at myself in the bathroom mirror. You can't seriously be considering this…My subconscious sounds sane and rational, not her usual snarky self. My inner goddess is jumping up and down, clapping her hands like a five-year-old. Please, let's do this…otherwise we'll end up alone with lots of cats and your classic novels to keep you company.
The only man I've ever been attracted to, and he comes with a bloody contract, a flogger, and a whole world of issues. Well, at least I got my way this weekend. My inner goddess stops jumping and smiles serenely. Oh yes…she mouths, nodding at me smugly. I flush at the memory of his hands and his mouth on me, his body inside mine. Closing my eyes, I feel the familiar delicious pull of my muscles from deep, deep down. I want to do that again and again. Maybe if I just sign up for the sex…would he go with that? I suspect not.
Am I submissive? Maybe I come across that way. Maybe I misled him in the interview. I'm shy, yes…but submissive? And those soft limits, jeez. My mind boggles, but I'm reassured that they are up for discussion.
I wander back to my bedroom. This is too much to think about. I need a clear head—a fresh morning approach to the problem. I put the offending documents in my backpack. Tomorrow…tomorrow is another day. Clambering into bed, I switch off the light and lie staring up at the ceiling. Oh, I wish I'd never met him. My inner goddess shakes her head at me. She and I know it's a lie. I have never felt as alive as I do now.
I close my eyes, and I drift into a heavy sleep with occasional dreams of four-poster beds and shackles and intense hazel green eyes.
Evie wakes me up the next day.
"Mal, I've been calling you. You must have been out cold."
My eyes reluctantly open. She's not just up. She's been for a run. I glance at my alarm. It's eight in the morning. Holy Moses, I've slept for a solid nine hours.
"What is it?" I mumble sleepily.
"There's a man here with a delivery for you. You have to sign for it."
"What?"
"Come on. It's big. It looks interesting." She hops from foot to foot excitedly and bounds back into the living room. I clamber out of bed and grab my robe hanging on the back of my door. I walked into the living area to see Jay and Lonnie sitting at the table groggy, probably from just waking up. I gave them a small wave before I made my way to the door. A smart young man with a ponytail is standing in our living room clasping a large box.
"Hi," I mumble.
"I'll make you some tea and those two some coffee." Evie scuttles off to the kitchen.
"Ms. Fey?"
And I immediately know who the parcel is from.
"Yes," I answer cautiously.
"I have a package for you here, but I have to set it up and show you how to use it."
"Really? At this time?"
"Only following orders, ma'am." He smiles in a charming but professional he's-not-taking-any-crap way.
Did he just call me ma'am? Have I aged ten years overnight? If I have, it's that contract. My mouth puckers in disgust.
"Okay, what is it?"
"It's a MacBook Pro."
"Of course it is." I roll my eyes.
"These aren't available in the shops yet, ma'am; the very latest from Apple."
How come that does not surprise me? I sigh heavily.
"Just set it up on the dining table over there."
I wander into the kitchen to join Evie.
"What is it?" she says inquisitively, bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. She's slept well, too.
"It's a laptop from Ben."
"Wait. Ben bought you a laptop?" Jay asked as he poured himself a cup of coffee.
"Why's he sending you a laptop? You know you can use mine." She frowns.
Not for what he has in mind.
"Oh, it's only on loan. He wanted me to try it out." My excuse sounds feeble. But Evie nods her assent. Oh my…I have hoodwinked Evilyn White. A first. She hands me my tea. Jay on the other hand looked sceptical.
The Mac laptop is sleek and silver and rather beautiful. It has a very large screen. Benjamin Adams likes scale. I think of his living area, in fact, his whole apartment.
"It's got the latest OS and a full suite of programs, plus a one-point-five terabyte hard drive so you'll have plenty of room, thirty-two gigs of RAM—what are you planning to use it for?"
"Uh…email."
"E-mail!" he chokes, raising his eyebrows with a slightly sick look on his face.
"And maybe Internet research?" I shrug apologetically. He sighs.
"Well, this has full wireless N, and I've set it up with your Me account details. This baby is all ready to go, practically anywhere on the planet." He looks longingly at it.
"Me account?"
"Your new email address."
I have a new email address?
He points to an icon on the screen and continues to talk at me, but it's like white noise. I haven't got a clue what he's saying, and in all honesty, I'm not interested. Just tell me how to switch it on and off. I'll figure out the rest. After all, I've been using Evie's for four years. Lonnie whistles, impressed when she sees it.
"This is next-generation tech." She raises her eyebrows at me. "Most women get flowers or maybe jewelry," she says suggestively, trying to suppress a smile.
I scowl at her but can't keep a straight face. We both burst into a fit of giggles, and computer man gapes at us, bemused. He finishes up and asks me to sign the delivery note.
As Evie shows him out, I sit with my cup of tea and open the email program, and waiting for me is an email from Ben. My heart leaps into my mouth. I have an email from Benjamin Adams. Nervously, I opened it.

I shut the computer down, grinning like an idiot. How can I resist playful Ben? I am going to be late for work. Well, it is my last week—Mr. and Mrs. Chermont will probably cut me some slack. I race into the shower, unable to shake my face-splitting grin. He emailed me. I'm like a small, giddy child. And all the contract angst fades. As I wash my hair, I try to think of what I could possibly ask him via email. Surely it's better to talk these things through. Suppose someone hacked into his account? I flush at the thought. I dress quickly, shout a hasty good-bye to Evie, and I'm off to work my last week at Chermont's.
Carlos calls me at eleven.
"Hey, are we doing coffee?" He sounds like the old Carlos. Carlos my friend, not a…what did Ben call him? Suitor. Ugh.
"Sure. I'm at work. Can you make it here for, say, twelve?" I asked
"See you then."
He hangs up, and I go back to restocking the paintbrushes and thinking about Benjamin Adams and his contract.
Carlos is punctual. He comes bounding into the shop like a gamboling dark-eyed puppy.
"Mal." He smiles his dazzling toothy smile, and I can't be angry with him anymore.
"Hi, Carlos." I hug him. "I'm starving. I'll just let Mrs. Chermont know I'm going for lunch."
As we stroll to the local coffee shop, I slip my arm through Carlos'. I'm so grateful for his…normality. Someone I know and understand.
"Hey, Mal," he murmurs. "You've really forgiven me?"
"Carlos, you know I can never stay mad at you for long."
He grins.
I cannot wait to get home, the lure of emailing Ben, and maybe I can begin my research project. Evie is out somewhere, so I fire up the new laptop and open my email. Sure enough, there's a message from Ben sitting in the inbox. I'm practically bouncing out of my seat with glee.

I type "Submissive" into Wikipedia.
Half an hour later, I feel slightly queasy and frankly shocked to my core. Do I really want this stuff in my head? Jeez…is this what he gets up to in the Red Room of Pain? I sit staring at the screen, and part of me, a very moist and integral part of me that I've only become acquainted with very recently, is seriously turned on. Oh my, some of this stuff is HOT. But is it for me? Holy shit…could I do this? I need space. I need to think.
