Chapter 11 Ready or Not

Edwards POV

I look at my watch again I am sitting in the restaurant drinking my morning coffee waiting for Felix, tonight was the night, D day was it was. And the anticipation is killing me he was already fifteen minutes late. "Hey buddy! Sorry I am late traffic is a bitch." He came in with his shades, a dark blue Gucci suit, with an emerald green shirt. Every woman looked at him as he passed. He sat down the waitress appeared out of nowhere, trying to get his attention, not sparing her a second glance after ordering a tea, so I decided I had to ask. "Hey what's up with the tea? I mean it's not very manly." He smiles as the tea was placed in front of him, ordering a mushroom omelette, I ordered the same. "We sit down together and have tea time if you will, and watch a black and white movie. Right now we are watching black and white Addams Family. I guess you can say it grew on me. Miss Swan loves her tea." Interesting I learn more about her all the time. "Tell me again what to expect, I feel like a newbie and it's very unnerving to say the least."

He stopped drinking his tea, looked me straight in the eyes, "what are you worried about? We have been working on this; you know what's expected of you." What was I worried about? I know as soon as the question came out of my mouth, not being good enough, the insecurities that I didn't know I had started raising to the surface. "Hey man chill, she is not going to do anything that makes you uncomfortable, I can almost guarantee there won't be any sex even. Also with all the training there shouldn't be a problem. And making mistakes is part of the fun." He shrugged his shoulder with a wink, what the fuck, "why not? I mean if I do well why shouldn't there be any sex." Isn't that what this was all about, finding release? He was trying to hold the smile that threatened to appear. "This life is so much more than sex."

They arrived with another tea and our order. "I can honestly say she is like nothing you have ever experienced; she feels there should be a strong foundation." Taking a sip of his tea, you could see the conviction of his words, the smouldering emotions in his eyes. "Maybe it would help to hear my story. "When I applied for this position, it was really out of desperation. By that I mean not having a steady Dom for almost a year." He chuckled and shook his head at the memory, "picture this, I am a seasoned sub since I was sixteen, hard core training 24/7 life style that works because of a friends mom, then there's her. She has been a sub for a few years, and then wants to be a Dom of not one but two men. However, like I said desperate times, calls for desperate measures." There was something I have always wanted to know, "how did you hear about the position?" he looked at me like I was stupid, "Paul. He was out looking for male subs word got around the campfire. You had to bring in a resume to his office then he picked who was approved then let her choose."

He could not hold the smile away anymore, then started to talk with his hands, "When I first met her, she was sort of... mousy if you will, shy girl next door type; you know the type. The ones that couldn't hurt a fly, I almost walked out. The first thought was she won't be able to handle me, you know there is a certain level of dominance needed for this. But there was a fire in her eyes that said she was up for the challenge." I gestured for a refill of my coffee, "The interview I felt went well, I found there was something about her that drew me in just talking with her. However there was an obstacle and the main one had a name and his name was Paul." He said his name with such venom and hate, "if she approved you had to go to the next stage of approval which involved him. Let me tell you that man is a piece of work!" How could I forget that, he made quite the impression.

He sighed, "He used to intimidate me, well us, and he was always a phone call away. He was this invisible presence that was always there, even if he was across the world. He was her rock when she wasn't feeling secure in something; he was the only one who could turn that frown upside down. No matter how hard Demetri and I tried." He gave me a sad smile, "He would give her anything in the world, trips, money, jewels, house, cars, education, and businesses anything but the one thing she wanted, which was his submission. I realize now the interviews, his weird acceptance of what was us, and it was all part of it you know it was a well thought out plan." He stopped shaking his head, took a deep breath.

Come on you can't just stop there, "what plan are you talking about?" He sat there a second, "Why he allowed her to have two men living in his house, is because he figured she could not fall in love with us. He most likely thought she would come back, though it never occurred." He put his fork down. "He had her wound real tight, she could be herself that girl next door it was what he created. When he evaporated as a constant presence in the picture she blossomed and everything just ...clicked with her and us." He couldn't hide the smile while his mind drifted to some personal memories they all shared.

"She spent a lot of time getting to know us, building trust between us all. She is more than a Dom to us, she is a friend, a lover, and confidant. I knew the day I got the call about adding you to the list you would change things for us. Then the part, the way you looked at her and watched her it was like you were already a part of us, making sure she was always somewhere that you could see then the way she blushed with your watching. It's been so long been a long time since she did that, it went right down chest." He shook his head, chuckling. "I knew then you were here to stay." I gave him a long look, "and your ok if I am here indefinitely?" He just shrugs indifferently, I can only hope Demetri feels the same, but something tells me it's highly unlikely.

I totally missed the part of why I wasn't getting sex. "And what does this have to do with the lack of sex?", he laughed at me, I couldn't help but frown. "Like I said she is nothing you have ever seen, trust is something you will have to build with her, or have you already?" I didn't know for sure. "I am not saying that you won't get pleasure because you will and if you behave you will get release as well. Chin up buddy you are going to have a blast."

"I am going to let you in on a few things, I think she is maybe hoping for something more long term. She hasn't said anything either way however my gut is telling me different. Now the reason she is going to perform a scene with you tonight I still do not know if it's going to be open viewing or when we get back. Is all about trust, have you ever heard of Kinbaku?" I shook my head, "no can't say I have." He clears his throat, "well it Japanese erotic bondage, she hasn't said what she is going to do I just know that's going to be your scene. Sure hope you're as flexible as you look."

That gave me a lot to think about also research so I don't go in blind. The rest of the breakfast went by fast, before I knew it was over. He stood up leaving money for the bill, "Oh and one more thing, when we're out, stay on her right side because I am always on the left. So for instance if she uses her right hand and says come it's me she is calling forward." He patted me on the shoulder on the way by, "don't worry buddy you will be fine, welcome to the family brother."

Leaving me to think over everything he just revealed, because ready or not here I come.
