"You're finally here, Ginny. There's one client who's been waiting for you for ages," Luke Smith said.I'd just arrived at the store when he—the store manager—pulled me aside. "One of the clients came and specifically requested for your services. He's already waiting in the private room."He looked around, then whispered, "He brought some tools with him. I think… You should probably watch out for him. Keep yourself safe."I, Ginny Vine, was surprised to hear that. I was a love therapist, and what I mainly did was allow clients to experience what it felt like to be in love by interacting with them. Certain physical contact wasn't explicitly mentioned but was expected.The fact that Luke was so cautious told me that this client probably wasn't to be trifled with. Still, I smiled. "It's okay. I can handle it."I prepared myself and smiled professionally before heading into the private room. "Good day, sir. I'm your love therapist… for the day."I subconsciously lowered my voice towa
I felt a little tentative as I did this. What if this pissed the client off?To my surprise, he wasn't pissed at all. In fact, it excited him. He got on all fours with his head plastered to the floor. His tone became ingratiating and overjoyed. "Yes, my queen! Don't step on me too hard, milady. You don't want to tire yourself."I was surprised to hear that. To tell the truth, this was my first time meeting such a client after being a love therapist for so long. In the past, we would always be the ones having to be careful when serving our clients. When had our clients ever treated us like this?A feeling of ecstasy rose within me. I didn't hold back. Instead, I stepped on the client's back more forcefully. "Are you telling me what to do?"The pressure from my foot made even his chest touch the floor. He turned his face so his cheek was pressed against the floor, getting dirt on it. He said cautiously, almost ingratiatingly, "Don't be mad, my queen. It's all my fault."Only then di
Marshmallow paused before opening the door. He trembled all over as he walked out.I could see the bubble tea store from the window. While waiting, I mischievously played with the buttons on the remote. I didn't know what Marshmallow went through, but his face was bright red when he returned. Some of the bubble tea had spilled from the cup."Please have bubble tea, my queen," he said."How do you expect me to drink that when it's spilled?" I sounded displeased.Marshmallow placed the bubble tea on the table before kneeling and pressing his forehead to the floor. "I'm sorry, milady. It's my fault. I promise it won't happen again."I checked the time. Our hour together was almost up, so I let the matter slide. I slowly said, "The time you've reserved with me is almost up. You should clean up and get ready to leave."His head shot up to check the time. Then, he crawled to me, looking fearful. He placed his hands on my knees and looked at me pleadingly. "Don't abandon me, milady! I'm
It was clearly the remote for the vibrator. Now, I knew why Marshmallow was here. He wanted some excitement!The onlookers started hyping things up. I didn't want to attract too much attention, so I took the ross and hurried to the expensive car. Marshmallow could tell I was upset; his smile faded slightly as he jogged to catch up with me.I turned on the vibrator when he started jogging. He faltered before awkwardly getting into the car. The windows were made of one-way glass, so no one could see what happened inside.Once Marshmallow was in the car, I kicked the back of the front seats. "Who allowed you to come here to look for me?"He seemed scared by my attitude. He said obediently, "Don't be mad, my queen. I made a mistake—I shouldn't have come without informing you. I'll make sure to ask you for permission before coming next time, okay?"His tone was humbled and lowly. He seemed to panic when he saw how mad I was. "Please don't be mad, milady. I'll do anything you want me to
I couldn't stop the corners of my lips from lifting a little when I saw the money, but I still forced myself to remain severe. I looked at Marshmallow and snapped, "What's that supposed to mean? Do you think I'm a gold digger?"When he saw the ugly look on my face, he hurriedly said, "Of course not! That would be an insult to your love for me, my queen! I'm already honored that you've given me your time."I was satisfied with how flattering he sounded. In truth, this job was super easy for me. I didn't need to do anything extra—all I needed to do was ensure that I was fully immersed in the role of being Marshmallow's queen.I spent some time at his apartment. During that time, he was at my beck and call. No matter my request, he would nod and agree.Before I was due to leave, he lay on the couch, covered in injuries. He panted, trying to catch his breath, but there was no mistaking the excitement in his eyes. He was evidently pleased with how things had turned out."It's not conve
After a dissection class, wouldn't the smell on the students' clothes be of formaldehyde and corpses? Why would Marshmallow's apartment smell of that?My mind was in a mess, but I subconsciously denied that possibility. Marshmallow was a regular white-collar worker. How could he have that smell around him?"It probably got onto me by accident. I'll go shower now." I felt like a wreck. I scrubbed myself several times in the shower before feeling like the smell was gone.When I came out, my dormmates asked about Marshmallow and his expensive car. "I never would've expected you to be pursued by such a rich and handsome guy! How far have you guys gone?"I waved a hand awkwardly. "It's not like that. We're just friends. There's nothing between us."They evidently didn't believe me and smiled at me. "Come on, are you really going to keep this a secret from us? We know that car is worth millions of dollars. He bought you the most expensive flowers available, too! It's not nice to keep us
Marshmallow's tone was initially gentle but became irritated toward the end. His final messages even sounded accusatory. "Why aren't you replying? Are you hiding from me? What are you doing? Haven't you read any of my messages?"My hands trembled when I saw these. Still, I texted him back in the tone I've always used with him. "I've just woken up. Why are you shouting at me?"He replied almost immediately. "I'm sorry, my queen. I got ahead of myself. I thought something had happened to you on your way home. Don't be mad at me, please. Accept your knight's loyalty."He transferred money to me on Venmo again. For some reason, I didn't want to accept the money this time. I would've been delighted by this in the past, but things felt different now."I'm not going to take your money this time. Reflect on what you've done," I replied. I transferred the money back to him and threw my phone aside.Then, I started going over the whole thing. I still felt like I was overthinking this, but i
