A Divine Life
by R.E. Hargrave
ADL Summary:
Over the past year
of being Jayden Masterson’s collared submissive, Catherine O’Chancey has worked
through the mental terrors left behind by her old Dom — she thinks. To
celebrate their collar-ing anniversary, Jayden organizes a special day, during
which her final limits and fantasies will be realized. Will it prove to be more
than she can handle? Can she endure the erotic onslaught her mind and body will
experience and survive unscathed?
While Catherine
faces dark shadows and pleasurable highs, Jayden finds his own inner strength
being tested. He has come to realize that, somewhere along the way, Catherine
has taken possession of his heart, mind, and body. Now he faces his biggest
challenge ever; he must let go of all his submissives but one: his jewel, Catherine.
Can he leave his philandering ways behind? Has he made the ultimate mistake by
putting his jewel into the hands of others?
Excerpt:
“So, how does that
work? I mean, how does one draw the line between Master and husband?” Was such
a complicated relationship possible? Could Jayden
see her that way? Just thinking his name caused a funny feeling in Catherine’s
chest. Her thoughts continued, now on overdrive . . .
No. Master didn’t
do personal relationships. He’d said as much when they’d first signed their
con-tract together. They’d both agreed to the understanding that this was
nothing more than a sexual relationship. Hell, he was fucking two other people
besides her that she knew of. If there were a chance that he wanted something
more with her, he wouldn’t have handed her over to complete strangers today. Would he? Oh, God. Sir Jonathan’s offer
to take Catherine on repeated itself in her memory, along with the knowledge
that she had more sessions today with an unknown number of Doms. Was that what today
was? Had the ‘inspection’ Sir Jonathan performed not been part of the scene?
Was Sir Jonathan looking her over as a potential acquisition? What about Miss K
offering to take her on back in February? Catherine’s stomach soured again.
“No. No, please,
no. I — I can’t,” Catherine mumbled and began to shake.
“Erin?”
Her world began
crumbling around her, and panic took root. Catherine gasped for air, wrapping
her arms around her mid-section.
“Erin! What’s
wrong?”
Paige’s shriek
snapped Catherine to attention, and she raised her watery eyes to meet her new
friend’s.
“Paige,” Catherine
started to cry. “He figured it out. I tried to be so good, so careful. He
knows, and he’s going to get rid of me!” She thought she’d done so well at
hiding her secret over the months, protecting her heart.
Paige had wrapped
her arm around Catherine and was rubbing slow circles on her back. With a
wince, Catherine became quite aware of every lash mark from Sir Jonathan’s
whip. They now burned to her core when Paige’s soft hands brushed over them.
Catherine flinched away from her.
“Shh, Erin,” she
said in a calming voice. “Who knows what, sweetie? What are you talking about?”
Turning wide eyes
on her, Catherine choked out, “Jay . . . Master. He knows I’ve fallen in — in love
with him. I wasn’t supposed to. He found out, and now he’s interviewing me with
strange Doms to get rid of me. I broke the rules and he —” she swallowed a sob,
“he doesn’t want me anymore!”
