She laughs. “Who do you think taught my dad how to cheat without getting caught?”
“His mother?”
She nods. “Forget being a cocktail waitress or showgirl. Nana was a blackjack dealer in Vegas.”
“Well, fuck. I wasn’t expecting to hear that about your nana.”
“Gambling is in my blood just like it’s in yours. But mine comes in a slightly different package.”
Emma Lia is the first submissive that I will have had who knows anything about the gaming industry. She understands my world. She understands what my daily life is like when I walk outside of this house and enter the workplace. I’m not sure if that’s a blessing or a curse.
“I have to step out and take care of some unfinished business after dinner. I won’t be back until late.”
I should have gone by the club before coming home from work, but I wanted to have dinner with Emma Lia at a decent hour.
“I took a book from the library. I’ll probably dive into it.”
I like that Emma Lia is choosing to read over watching television. One might assume that I’d want my submissive to be mindless. Maybe not have a brain to think for herself so I could better control her, but that isn’t the case. I don’t want a companion who can’t share an intelligent conversation.
“What book did you choose?”
“The Thorn Birds.”
“Very good choice.”
“Have you read it?”
“Yes.”
She stops eating and looks at me. “Are you sure? I think it’s a romance.”
“Actually, it’s quite the forbidden romance. And yes, I have read it.”
She giggles. “Men don’t typically read romance books. And I definitely wouldn’t expect a Dom to.”
I don’t feel love, but I am fascinated by those who do. I read about their experiences even if fictional because I find them intriguing. “You’ll likely discover a lot of unexpected things about me before this is over.”
“I look forward to that.”

I enterthe dark club and dodge club attendees dressed in scrubs and lab coats as I make my way toward the bar at the back. It’s medical play night. Not my scene but I guess that it gets a lot of people off, based on the number of people present tonight.
Jacob twists on his barstool and offers his hand when I approach. “Tristan. Haven’t seen you around lately. Good to see you.”
I haven’t been frequenting the club much lately. I’ve been spending most of my extra time at the casino, either waiting for Emma Lia to show or watching her at the blackjack tables via surveillance floor cams.
I take the stool beside Jacob, and the bartender wastes no time coming my way. Candi’s good that way, always providing prompt service. It’s been over a year but I recall that she’s also very good on her knees with a cock in her mouth.
“What will you be having tonight…Sir?” She lifts a brow when she addresses me. I know what that means but there will be no taking her up on that offer. I have a new sub, and she’s the only one I’m interested in.
“Scotch neat.”
“Coming right up, Sir.”
Jacob’s eyes are glued on Candi’s ass as she walks away. “I bet that one can take a dick in the ass.”
“Don’t know anything about that but she can sure take one in her mouth.” That one’s a talented woman.
