Leather and Love by Vic Winter

[reviews_and_ramblings]

In a very short tale, only 11 pages, Vic Winter plays with the stereotype of a D/s relationship. Don is older, wealthier and the boss, but in the private life he is Alex's submissive; it's not clear how all it started (well, in only 11 pages it's almost impossible to know all), but now Don and Alex's relationship is 4 years older and since two years they are also living together. Outside their apartment, Don is still the boss, and he is still a too much busy business man, always working late and such things. But if he can he follows Alex's rule and his desires, if not, Alex is quite good in punish Don, and not in a way Don likes. This night Alex is preparing a nice surprise for Don, but Don is again late. When he arrives at home, and sees the collar on the doorknob, Don only hopes to have not ruin everything.

The main scene is quite a classic D/s scene, with the required leather, harness and rings. What I like is that Alex didn't exaggerated, he masters Don with a firm but gentle hand, being dominant without being selfish. In a way Alex is always thinking to Don's good, and so the power play has a nice twist that I find nice and tender.
