The Siren Song Series Chapter 1: Metamorphosis
As the CEO of Regional Bank, I was a dominant female-a no-nonsense woman, driven to succeed. Every aspect of my life was controlled. Every single one. But at the end of the day, I hadn't figured out why I felt so adrift and unfulfilled. Then, the awakening came-the one role in which I didn't want to dominate, I didn't want to control-and it hit me like a crash of lightning. I realized my need for submission in one area. I wanted-no, needed-someone to control me, to give me the freedom to exist without decisions, and enjoy life under someone else's direction. It had been so long since I'd had it, I couldn't remember what an essential part of me it had truly been.My heart burned for a man who could tame my attitude, who could give me a look and heat the pool between my legs, whose glance sent me to my knees in submission, waiting for instructions. I desired with every fiber of my being to have a man take over, to trust him to care for me and nourish my soul. I dated a guy who had p
The Siren Song Series Chapter 2
I didn't see Dax on Friday or even know if he'd come to see Julie. In fact, I didn't see him again, at all. I hadn't seen him for weeks, which had somehow set me on edge, putting me on high alert. I cursed myself every time I glanced at the door, expecting him, and he didn't pass through it. I'd done this to myself; I'd discarded his advances as though he wasn't worth the time of day. In an attempt to let go of the unreasonable anxiety I felt toward missing a man I didn't know, I decided to go out with my girlfriends. The bar sat on a side road off Main Street running through downtown, and I spent fifteen minutes looking for a place to park. Friday nights were usually pretty busy, but when we closed the bar down, the streets were empty by the time we left. The bartender had cashed out our tabs, and my friends headed out when I called a cab. With them all living in the vicinity of the pub, they hadn't had a need for a designated driver, but I was out in the suburbs and would never ch
The Siren Song Series Chapter 3
A small slit in my eyes provided blurred visibility anytime I tried to open them, but the pain the light caused was only a fraction of discomfort compared to the way my throat burned and the choking sensation that sent me into a panic when I floated in and out. The migraine was worse each time I dared come to, and there wasn't a single part of my body that didn't throb in pain. I prayed to God this wasn't real, that I wasn't lucid, and that this was a nightmare I couldn't wake from. But it had to be reality-it paled in comparison to the beautifully vivid dreams that took me back under. The only part of that plague I didn't try to avoid when I managed to peek out of my slumber was the angel next to me, luring me back into unconsciousness with his songs-an acoustic melody that softly echoed off the walls around me. The guitar hummed a serene tune-one I desperately wanted to hold on to, hear forever, as though it could become a tangible part of my spirit. I took note of the stark

"Kitten, I need you to wake up. Come on, I know you're tired, but the doctor's here to see you to take the tube out." I opened my eyes wider than it seemed I had in years. The swelling had dissipated enough to allow the light to flood through the larger slits between my lids and blind me. But cords connected from my body to God knew what stopped me from shielding my eyes with my arm or hands. I wondered briefly how many machines monitored some aspect of my bodily function. I'd never felt discomfort like what I experienced trying to adjust to the sunshine filling the room. As my pupils contracted, I would have sworn I felt their actual movement and the way they narrowed until I was able to focus. It was surreal and would have been a sensation I wanted to hold on to-the way the world came back into view after days of lost perception-but the migraine surpassed the beauty, and turning my head resulted in agony. When the searing spikes through my skull subsided, I was able to recogniz

Thirty minutes later, the song of my tribe's footsteps clicking down the hall toward my room met my ears. Dax gave me a funny look, and I laughed. He was trying to decide whether to make a break for it or stay put and see what happened. Rachel led the pack. As soon as she stomped through the open door and caught sight of me-ignoring the looming man in our midst-her face went flat. "Jesus Christ, Cameron Pierce! What the hell happened to you?""Fucking A, Rachel. Have some tact!" Piper popped up. She was the oldest of the group-although, only by a couple of years. I envied her. Everything about her screamed perfection, but she was completely immune to it. "Would you two shut up? Check out the man candy. Who the hell is this, Cam?" Charlotte, better known to us as Charlie, was as lesbian as the day was long, but she appreciated the male form as much as the rest of us. All four girls turned to Dax, who stood at their acknowledgment."Dax Cooper," he said, introducing himself to
The Siren Song Series Chapter 6
Dax lived in an old farmhouse on fifty acres of land about ten miles from my house. I hadn't realized solitude could be obtained so nearby-there wasn't a neighbor in sight. It was nothing like I expected from him. Scarlett O'Hara, yes...Dax Cooper, no. The plantation-style home was straight out of a storybook or Southern Living. A huge two-story, pale-yellow house with a dream porch wrapping around the entire perimeter of the lower level didn't fit his personality. But neither did the rocking chairs near the front door, or the huge fans with blades shaped like leaves. There was no denying someone spent an exorbitant amount of time caring for the landscaping out front-stunning flowers in every color, shape, and size imaginable lined the circular drive. Their smell permeated the air sweetly in a way only found in the South. His front yard could have been on the cover of Landscaper's Paradise it was that lush. But the fountain that stood between the driveway and the street drew my atte

The room was as masculine as Dax's but had more personal touches. I wondered why he kept pictures of him with his friends in a guest room and not his own, but men were strange creatures. I recognized him at much younger ages in almost all the photos and smiled at how carefree he seemed. At the end of the dresser sat a frame with what I assumed was him with Jeremy. They were crowd deep in a family cookout, and I recognized a little bitty Julie in Jeremy's arms. Her hair was just as unique then as it was now. When I opened the closet to toss my bag inside, the musty-or maybe stale-smell hit me like a wave of heat. Rollerblades and cleats lined the floor, a body board and skis stood in the corner, and a lifejacket hung on a hanger-alone. Instinctively, I reached up to touch the floatation device, overwhelmed by sadness. But before my fingers met the material, Dax's hand grabbed at my elbow and the bruises surrounding it, pulling it down with more force than necessary. "Don't touch it."

Dax woke me the next morning, clearly having been up for some time. Breakfast was made and waiting for me on the table. "Once you're done eating, you need to get dressed so we can head into town for your appointment."Pulling the covers over my head, I wished the day away. But he just laughed and pulled them back, exposing me to the light and the dawning of reality. "Ugh, Dax, can't we do this another day?""No, baby, we can't. I know you aren't looking forward to it, but it's a necessary evil."An hour later, we were in his truck, driving down the interstate into downtown. The office building and parking garage were nondescript, and I silently followed Dax to the elevator and up to the third floor. His hand was warm in mine but felt like it kept me grounded, refusing to let me float away. I was barely cognizant of going through the motions checking in and taking a seat to wait. The gentle squeeze he offered was an attempt to reassure my racing heart and anxious mind. Hearing
