I turned on my heels and glared at her.
“I don’t recall asking you for any additional noise. I don’t fucking care what your friends call you…attention whore.”
What was wrong with me? Why did I feel so much hatred toward this woman?
With Jacob’s crop in my hand and tears threatening to spill over, I hurried out of the room. I went straight to my car and bawled my eyes out.

Joshua cameinto the coffee house just as I was getting off work. I poured myself a cup of the house blend and sat outside with Joshua for a few minutes.
“So, what’s new? It’s been a while since we sat down and caught up,” I said and leaned back.
“Not much. Are you coming to the club tonight?” Joshua asked as he sipped from his paper coffee cup.
“I was thinking about it. Anything exciting going on that you know about tonight?” I asked.
“The Top bitch that James is working with is supposed to have a session with Brandon,” Joshua volunteered.
A few things Joshua said had piqued my interest. The nickname “Top bitch,” was interesting. Also, that James was allowing Brandon to have a session with her. I couldn’t let on that I knew Elise from anywhere outside the club. While she has always been friendly and nice in the coffee house, I knew from watching her session with Joshua that she lacked some tact that a Top should possess. But she was new and learning, and I was giving her the benefit of the doubt.
“Top bitch, huh? Sounds like she’s a piece of work,” I agreed to play along. “I saw her session with you a few weeks ago. She’s hot,” I added.
“Yeah, she’s hot. I’ll give her that. But she’s got a long way to go.”
I looked at him for a few moments, and I tried to recall most of the session that I saw. I remembered being distracted some by Brandon, but we both got off watching the session.
“Everyone is new at some point, man.”
“Yeah, but she was boldly reckless.”
I thought about what he was saying, and really, I couldn’t disagree with him completely. She did yank his head around and hit him near his kidneys.
“She will learn with experience about her distance and reach. I don’t think she intended to hit you there.”
“I know, I’m not worried about me. James even said it would be something she’d quickly learn as long as it is brought to her attention.”
“So, why the nickname?”
“She was an asshole to Ali,” Joshua said.
He explained what happened last weekend at the club and how Elise left the session without providing any care. I remember she walked out on Joshua also. I know some Tops who aren’t the best at it, but never have I had a Top not even bother to ask if I needed anything. I thought she would have learned from her session with Joshua to at least ask during her next session.
“Surely, James has mentioned that to her,” I said.
“I’m sure he has. But you know how it goes. It’s up to the person to retain it.”
“So, James is letting Brandon have a session with her?”
“Yeah, I’m just as surprised. But Brandon is ten times the masochist that Ali is. Top bitch might be a good match for Brandon. I think James is wondering if she will pair and play better with Brandon than she did Ali.”
“Because he’s a guy?” I asked, although I knew that was the reason. It was one of those things that I understood. I knew that certain play partners gelled and clicked better with some than with others.
“Yeah. He’s a guy, and if her kink includes punishing younger guys and controlling them, then she might have a better session with Brandon than she did with Ali.”
“But you’re a guy,” I argued.
