Mahiro became a professional figure skater for one reason -- the object of his lust from the time he was a teenager, Alex Breschi. But he never advanced far enough for Alex to notice him. Now Alex is retired from skating and working as a thriller author, while Mahiro gracefully bowed out of competition to become a successful app developer and professional Dom in New York City.<br><br>Reality and fantasy collide at a penthouse play party when Mahiro meets his idol. Alex is researching a book, and he wants to learn more about the lifestyle. In fact, he wants to be trained as a submissive. By Mahiro.<br><br>Mahiro knows it's a terrible idea. He's hardly objective, and Alex is a novice. Still, all those years of longing shatter his reserve, and he cannot refuse to have the man of his dreams in his hands.  He's going to make sure Alex notices him now. It's only a business arrangement, and since Alex is returning to Russia in a few months, Mahiro can have some fun without divulging his past ... or his obsession. What does he have to lose?

“Anal sex, oral sex, comeplay, fisting?” Alex starts checking off various boxes labeled “Hard limit,” “soft limit,” or “Yes please!”


“Make sure you ask if you don’t know what anything is,” Mahiro warns.


“Well, I know what’s definitely a hard limit,” he says and marks a huge X in the hard limit boxes for golden showers, scat play, bloodplay, electricity, breathplay, fire, fire and ice—wait. “What’s fire and ice?”


“Hot wax followed by ice. The contradiction can be intense.”


Alex considers and puts a mark in “Yes please!”


He finishes the rest as quickly as he can. Spanking gets a yes please, as does flogging, and Alex takes a second to imagine himself in Adrian’s place on the cross. Bondage, whips, suspension bondage, cock rings all sound okay, and nipple play makes him tingle. He finishes up, hands the stack over to Mahiro, and watches, stomach tense, as he runs his eyes quickly down the boxes.
