Now free for a limited time as a special holiday promotion!

The last thing Kara expected as she enjoyed her usual casual drink was for Russell to walk in the door. Strong, handsome, 7-years-absent Russell – her old mentor and the one man who had always been able to see right through her…and who had used that to give her everything she needed.

When he starts talking of candles and undying flames, she can’t help wondering if there might still be spark hidden there between them. But she’s older and wiser now, and determined that her acceptance of his invitation home will end completely innocently. After all, she knows better now than to give herself to the one man that can truly push her limits – doesn’t she?

Warning: This 8,000+ word erotic romance contains graphic language and explicit sexual action between a girl who is sure she knows better and the one man who can truly break her down, containing bondage, breast play, whipping and more. The second instalment will include her being restrained to a Sybian and forced to cum again and again before being fucked hard. Intended for ADULTS 18+ only.

“Give yourself to me for the time it takes one of these candles to burn down and extinguish. They claim that they last for 30 minutes, but I will admit I’ve had varying results. Pick whichever one you like, and we’ll see just how strong that flame is.”

I swallowed as I turned away from him, moving up to the cabinet and lightly touching the candles there as an excuse to stop looking into the depths of his eyes. You want this. But still, I didn’t know whether I could. Somehow, I had no doubt I trusted him, but I was starting to get a surge of adrenaline from the accompanying fear as well. I didn’t know whether I could take everything he might do to me.

My eyes flicked to the Sybian sitting in the corner. Especially as I had no doubt that that would be involved somehow. There were butterflies in my stomach as I contemplated that and considered just how far this could go if I said yes…my mind chasing itself in circles as it battled over whether or not I really wanted some of the things that I had fantasised about for so long.

“I…I’m not sure whether I can do it.”
