I looked him up and down from my place behind the desk. I was keenly aware that I was sitting whilst he was standing - that my physical position was subserviant to his. Physical position didn't mean everything though - at least not with us. Still, this was my place. My Dominion; he simply held a place in it that was parallel to my own. My equal. As much my Master as I was his Mistress. I felt a smile flicker across my lips as I rose from my place. The words tasted strange even within my own mind. Deliciously strange. I put myself on equal footing with him by holding his eye contact as my fingertips twisted free the buttons of his shirt. I took a moment to study those eyes; taking in the tension that lurks behind the cool exterior. Tension that was only visible to those who took the time to look. Really, it was a wonder that either of us survived as well as we did; letting so few people in. "Hard night at the office?" I found that I could not keep either the sarcasim or the concern from my voice. He closed his eyes against the touch of my fingertips to his temples, "Sometiems I think they all are. Then again - if they weren't I wouldn't be human." I felt him supress a shudder as I ran my palms flat up his chest to slide the shirt from his shoulders. He looked at me looking at him and his mouth quirked into a half smile, he brushed a strand of hair gently out of my face, "Penny for your thoughts Heather?" I drew his mouth down to mine and whispered against his lips, "Just that - of all the fetish clubs in Vegas, you had to walk into mine."
