Wait, were you waiting for a punchline? That’s
what happens in a chapter opening.
Secured and Free is the second book in the Entwined Dreams BDSM series. Entwined is
a BDSM club that doesn’t exist except in my wishes and dreams. I began writing
this as a way to ensure all types of BDSM expression are validated not just the
“typical”. My goal is to explore the faucets of what’s beyond what we normally
see/read about. There’s too much complexity and uniqueness for me not to want
to share what’s beyond the stereotypes. Be warned you might not find characters
you’re used to seeing or expressing themselves in the way you might come to expect.
(Disclaimer: I’m a love slave. So, I approach
BDSM on a very personal level. I try to acknowledge my own filters, but I may
slip into my own belief system >>> if you feel I’m not be portraying
an aspect accurately please let me know.)
I believe BDSM is a spectrum. Some people live
in BDSM based relationships 24/7, others dabble and there’s people everywhere
in between. Sometimes people remain fixed in their BDSM needs and desires over
time, sometimes their desires change. BDSM is truly individual. As is the
expression of it.
Take the two Doms in Secured and Free: Marcus
Satir and Hunter Dixon. Both can wear the label Dominant. However, their
expression of it is different. Marcus finds his joy in sharing pain with
others, and Hunter wants to guide a sub to their full potential. Hunter is very
specific and exacting while Marcus finds the joy of BDSM to the point of being
silly. Hunter is thrilled to go over a BDSM activities worksheet with a sub
while Marcus wouldn’t waste his time (though he has no problem using the
information acquired). Their perceptions of themselves and their definitions of
domination also vary.
Excerpt from Secured and Free:
Marcus, Hunter and Orion’s first chat:
Hunter nodded. “I simply like to put a sub
through their paces. I like to focus on making sure they are getting everything
they need.”
Did Orion shiver? Marcus couldn’t be sure
because of the squirming in the chair. He might as well throw his predilection
out there. “I’m a sadist.”
Shaking his head, Hunter said, “You’ve got
sadistic tendencies.”
Marcus rolled his eyes. “Fine! Sadistic
tendencies with a side of masochism. I like to make it hurt and share the
feelings.”
Orion gasped and panted a little. The Pain Slut
sign flashed over his head.
Encouraged that he was on the right track,
Marcus continued to fuel the fire. “I live for the moment when the pain morphs
into pleasure.” He took the strands of hair dyed purple and painted them over
Orion’s face. “I adore the sensation so much I want to share in the bounty of
pain... the intensity of it.”
The pretty man shut his mouth and swallowed.
Hallelujah! The three of them would be well matched if Marcus could make this happen.
“But Hunter’s not into needles or pain. I’m not what most would consider a
Dominant, because I adore the sting of pain, but no matter how I try, I can’t
be submissive enough to satisfy Hunter’s need for dominance.”
Marcus took in Orion’s rapid blinking and the
way he licked his full lips. Yeah, Marcus had gotten used to settling for a lot
less to get just a little of what he needed. With Orion, it wouldn’t be
reconciling himself to less... and to share in Hunter’s complete satisfaction
would be heaven.
The practice/lifestyle of BDSM done right can
be a magical. Done wrong… it can lead to unintended injury both physical and
mental. Be safe. Be happy. Be you.

Entwined Dreams: Book
Two
An abusive Dom robbed Orion
Gordon of his love of BDSM, destroying his confidence and leaving him unsure
he’ll ever find peace through submission to another. Still, deep inside, his
longing continues.
Marcus Sadir loves Hunter
Dixon, yet can’t be the one thing Hunter truly desires: a sub to control. And
Hunter can’t find satisfaction in the sadistic aspects of the BDSM lifestyle,
while Marcus thrives on inflicting and sharing pain. When Marcus convinces
Hunter they should find a third on a permanent basis, they discover Orion might
be the key to bridging their differences and joining them on a deeper level.
But they must help Orion move
past his trauma enough for him to enjoy new facets of BDSM and kink again.
Their journey toward becoming whole—together—won’t be without challenges. Can
Orion trust enough to try again?
