The Training of Tessa
Tessa
had always been fascinated with the Dominant submissive lifestyle, and she was
? she felt, a very submissive person. In her real life people knew her as
a feisty, headstrong and passionate woman, no one would ever have described her
as submissive. But then she had learned over time that being submissive
didn?t mean she had to be a doormat, it meant to her that she wanted to hand
over her control, her welfare, her safety, to someone else. Throughout
her life she had maintained an iron grip on her personal control, organized to
the extreme in her work and home life, highly respected in her profession as a
Personal Assistant, so used to controlling others to ensure success. But
what she truly wanted deep down inside, was a man who could take her to that
special place of freedom she had heard and read so much about, to experience
true freedom within her mind.
She had
signed up to a lifestyle website to learn more about what it was to attain
this ?sub-space? she had heard about. Peppering her profile with
photographs she felt were ?artistic?, and writing a personal passage about who
she was had attracted plenty of admirers, but no one she had particularly
connected with. She wasn?t looking to find a soul mate, or even a
playmate, just someone to discuss her thoughts and passions and desires
with. It was out of the blue that a message had dropped into her inbox.
This
intriguingly daring and fiery novella describes three encounters experienced by
a young woman, who, whilst fascinated by BDSM throughout her life, had not had
the courage or opportunity to experiment in the scene, until now...
The Training of Tess is a quick read. I enjoyed
Tessa’s character and found her intriguing from the opening lines. Her nervous
straightening of her skirt immediately shows a flaw in her otherwise collected
demeanor at work, and also demonstrated the effect this otherwise unknown man
has on her when they’ve yet to even meet.
The author expertly assesses the fears and
doubts Tessa experiences and allows us to see into her mind in a beautifully
structured internal dialogue. Through her eyes, we see what Tessa sees, feel
what she’s feeling, and her fear and self-deprecating doubt is allowed to
radiate through in small and poignant moments of panic.
Allowing a person to dominate you completely is
daunting enough, but to meet a man from the internet in a warehouse and allow
him to do so would be positively terrifying, and the author doesn’t forget this
even as Tessa allows herself to relish in the experience. I thoroughly enjoyed
this read. It’s well-written, and erotic in all the right places.
Excerpt:
Tessa fidgeted nervously as she smoothed the wrinkles from her figure hugging pencil skirt. Shifting her gaze from the countryside rushing by, she glanced impatiently at her phone again; nothing. The last words she had read that morning from Him had been today is the day Tessa. She had scrolled up and down the list of messages she had received from Him countless times as she had sat there, double-checking and triple checking to ensure that she would fulfill His instructions exactly. You will catch the 10.13 train to London Victoria and alight when I tell you. You will then go to the front of the station and take the nearest taxi. Tell him to take you to Court Road. When you arrive there you will see two post boxes. Get out of the car, pay him and await instructions.
An involuntary shiver ran the full length of her spine as she sat on the train, waiting, anxiously waiting for that message. She perched on the edge of the seat, waiting for each stop, knowing she might have to dash for the door to make sure she didn’t miss the stop, and then her phone vibrated in her trembling hand. Now it said and with that Tessa stood and moved to the door. She appraised her reflection in the glass of the door – green satin blouse, black cardigan, black pencil skirt, sheer black nylons and her comfortable black slip on patent heels. He had requested she wear her turquoise underwear for their meeting, so Tessa had thought that accessorizing her flame red hair with a forest green blouse would also please Him. She had an insatiable need to please this man like nothing she had ever felt before.
He had crashed headlong into her life some three weeks earlier. Tessa had always been fascinated with the Dominant submissive lifestyle, and she was – she felt, a very submissive person. In her real life people knew her as a feisty, headstrong and passionate woman; no one would ever have described her as submissive. But then she had learned over time that being submissive didn’t mean she had to be a doormat, it meant to her that she wanted to hand over her control, her welfare, her safety, to someone else.

But what she truly wanted deep down inside, was a man who could take her to that special place of freedom she had heard and read so much about. To experience true freedom within her mind.
She had signed up to a lifestyle website to learn more about what it was to attain this ‘sub-space’ she had heard about. Peppering her profile with photographs she felt were ‘artistic’, and writing a personal passage about who she was had attracted plenty of admirers, but no one she had particularly connected with. She wasn’t looking to find a soul mate, or even a playmate, just someone to discuss her thoughts and passions and desires with. It was out of the blue that a message had dropped into her inbox. He handled each conversation they had with courtesy and interest, drawing more and more information out of her without her even realizing. Or maybe she did and she was already walking towards this man instinctively, already feeling the urge to please Him in any way He desired. She couldn’t place when her thoughts turned to Him entirely- it wasn’t long after they had started talking. He had even managed to find out where she worked, and after a few days of messaging back and forth, He called her anonymously at her desk. He had used a fake name to convince reception to pass Him through to her, and when He spoke, He had teased her with His low voice pressed to her ear. “Imagine this voice Tessa, speaking in your ear in person, knowing that whatever I say next, you must submit without question...” At that point Tessa felt the intense pangs of fear and panic that she had been hunted down so easily, what else did this man know about her in but a few days? She did not even know His name...
Two days later she met Him for the first time. She had just had a difficult meeting in the city and had been dropped off at the local car pool to collect her car when she had been pressed firmly against her door from behind.
“Hello Tessa,” He had breathed in her ear. “I suggest you get in my car.” Near paralyzed with fear she turned slowly and looked straight into intense sparkling brown eyes, flecked with green, there was no way she would deny Him, all of her life-long fantasies were coming true. They had gone to a local park, where He had run His hands over her shaking body, entwined His fingers in her hair and pulled her to His lips where they kissed deeply and passionately, her body melting further with each kiss and caress. His hands were so gentle, but firm enough to know that there really was no escape. He worked over her clothed body, gradually relaxing her until He slipped His hand under her top and slid His fingers inside the lacy material of her bra, slowly releasing her right breast. Her heaving chest betrayed her fear and lust, a deep red flush creeping across her as He leaned in and sucked her nipple deep into His mouth. She moaned loudly, eyes closing and arching her back to push into Him, taking her so close to the edge of climax then instinctively stopping His exploration of her body. Pulling away from her, He held her gaze, fingers once more tightly wrapped in her hair.
“I am going to enjoy you,” He uttered as she gasped to regain her composure. Every word He spoke to her was like a lightning bolt straight to her sex. Deep and powerful, she had to know more about Him whatever the cost.
