The twenty-year-old nervously rang the doorbell. He had circled the block of the turn-of-the-century Victorian for more than twenty minutes, trying to come to terms with turning his fantasies into reality. How could a "straight" guy like himself be in a situation like this?
It had begun nearly one month earlier earlier. He was walking down Telegraph Avenue and saw that the latest San Francisco free alternative paper was available. As usual, he quickly scanned the back pages in the "wild side" personals, looking for a dominant woman to serve. He liked giving pleasure to his college girlfriends but found that we he initiated bondage discussions into their play, he was always turned down. Once or twice he was called a "freak" as the girl was walking out of his room.
As usual, the ads were for women looking for "financial stable gentlemen" as partners. Kurt might have been a junior at Berkeley, but "financially stable" was not within his means... at least for the moment.
Just out of curiosity, he scanned the "Men seeking Men" section. He looked through several ads until he came upon that would bring him to where he is now:
Experienced in-shape bondage top, GWM, good looking, 43/6'2"/8" hard, seeks submissive, masculine, in-shape guy, 18-25, for erotic bondage and discipline. Bi, straight OK. Limits respected. Safe, sane, discreet & trustworthy. Box 1226
He'd never considered himself gay or even bi for that matter but something about this man's ad made his cock harden expectantly.
After thinking about the ad as he was masturbating that night, Kurt called the 1-900 number and left a message expressing his interest and details about himself. At five feet ten inches and one hundred and eighty pounds, Kurt had the proverbial "boy next door" good looks. With his brown hair, green eyes and athletic build, Kurt never had problems attracting girls. Finding a girl into bondage, let alone a dominant one, was however an exercise in futility.
A man named Mark called him back two days later. In a reassuring voice, he asked Kurt about his experiences (limited), expectations, fantasies and his ability to serve a man. Kurt did not know exactly what that entailed and expressed his doubts to Mark. They agreed to continue the dialogue exchange via e-mail, with Mark hoping to take Kurt one step closer to an eventual meeting. At first the dominant older man sent Kurt URL links to various gay sites - the first few were "vanilla" sites of young men around his own age. Kurt had, for the first time since junior high, looked at other male's cock, this time however in a pure sexual way. Eventually the e-mail exchanges grew more and more explicit, as the personal home pages showed older men engaging in sex with younger men. One site showed a young man, gagged and supine while cuffed to a sling, ass open for penetration. Although Kurt still had hesitations, that final site was why Kurt agreed to meet Mark at his home in San Francisco's Castro district that Saturday, as it was Mark's personal site.
Mark opened the door and looked very much like his picture that was displayed on his site. He wore a black shirt and jeans - not the leather that Kurt had seen previously - but his muscles were clearly defined from working out regularly at the gym. His salt and pepper hair was cut short in a military fashion, his black mustache and goatee impeccably groomed. Mark was looking Kurt up and down too. He obviously liked what he saw and grinned like a Cheshire cat. "You are right on time, I like that in my boy's." Kurt didn't know what he meant by that remark but entered Marks' home anyway.
Kurt followed Mark into his living room and nervously sat down on the soft leather couch. The room could be described as "minimal." The white walls contrasted nicely with the bare wooden floors. A large red painting with a two inch black horizontal line hung prominently on one wall. On the mantle above the fireplace, sat one lone object that looked like an award. Four black and white photographs - one each by Leibovitz, Mapplethorpe, Newton and Ritts - were displayed on the wall behind Kurt, each one personally signed by the artist.
"I see you noticed my Cleo," Mark said, trying to break the silence. "I'm in advertising. It affords me the opportunity to express my creative side and rewards me enough financially to the extent that I can own a Rothko. Do you like Rothko?" Kurt looked at Mark again. Mark was sitting in a modern black leather and silver chair with a matching ottoman. To Mark's right was a very antique end table with a reading light on it's marble top. His piercing black eyes starred intently at Kurt, awaiting a response. Mark had surrounded himself with souvenirs of his corporate climb, personal trophies of hard-won battles and objects' d'art that spoke to a private corner of his being. At this very moment, however, all that he prized was a response from the young man sitting opposite him.
"I assume you mean the painting. Yes, I like it, I just don't know much about art."
For over thirty minutes, the two men spoke of art, philosophy, the upcoming football season, Kurt's upbringing, college life and his future plans.
"Now that we have our pleasantries out of the way, why are you here?" Mark asked in a stern voice. "I never received an answer from you when we last spoke on the telephone."
Kurt had thought long and hard about the same question during the days before their meeting and answered, "I've long had fantasies about surrendering to a dominant woman. I never imagined that it would be here with you, as I've never had sex by any definition with a man. But your ad struck a nerve that I never knew existed. I want to feel the power of total surrender and trust that one has with another. I want a teacher who will be firm but respecting."
Mark seemed satisfied with Kurt's answer and decided to take it to the next level. "Kurt, I want you to take off all of your clothes except for your underwear." Kurt hesitated for a few moments and Mark knew from experience that if he didn't get his boy to obey after his first order of submission, then it was a lost cause. "You are wasting my time Kurt. I gave you an order. Do it now or leave and never return."
Kurt was too shocked to move but decided that he if he was to live out his fantasy, then he must stay and act quickly. Kurt never envisioned being a slave to a man but was soon about to experience firsthand what the others on Mark's site had, as he stood up and started to take off his shirt. Mark continued to stare, as his cock was becoming harder by the second.
Soon, Kurt was bare except for the white briefs that hid his cock. He was noticeably trembling (had the room gotten colder?), while Mark continued to stare at his new boy. Mark then stood up and walked behind Kurt.
"You are now to do exactly as I say. If at any time you need me to stop, your safe word is "bubble gum." The irony of the soft and sweet substance was lost on Kurt - his concentration was elsewhere at the moment. "Do you understand?"
"Yes. I will." Mark's answer was rather meek and not up to Mark's exact standards.
