Rainbow Snippet for 1-13-2018

Rainbow Snippets is a group for LGBTQ+ authors, bloggers, and readers to gather once a week and share six sentences from a work of fiction–a WIP or a finished work or even a 6-sentence book recommendation (no spoilers please!).   Check out all the other awesome snippets by clicking on the picture above.

I’m posting excerpts from Doll, a little F/f BDSM story that I started back in January of 2014. It’s kind of a UFO (UnFinished Object) that is sort of turning back into a WiP. We’ll see.

Picking up from last week, and Doll’s memory/flashback to her meeting with the woman with the boots and bullwhip.

…she owned the room simply by walking into it.

She wore black leather boots – fashion, not fetish. Beneath her long black leather coat, she wore a grey wool skirt that fell to mid-calf and a white blouse, probably silk. She had no jewelry other than a silver and black watch that I saw a glimpse of as she handed me her coat.

There was nothing about her that said she was part of the scene, and yet…

I felt her gaze on me and I shivered. I was used to men looking at me, used to their stares and appraisal, but she was different; it wasn’t my body that she was appraising, but my soul, my submissiveness, my willingness to please. 

It was that willingness – that need – to please that made me tremble, made me pray to be found… not worthy, but acceptable.
