Chapter Four

Maggie was one of life’s stereotypical power players. She called the shots in every aspect. At work, she was the boss. At home, she was the boss. And she was aware her love life suffered from this constant need for control.

What she longed for was to meet a man who could handle and deal with her control issues, someone who wouldn’t back down from a challenge. Her girlfriend Tasha had told her of such a man, a very different man she’d met who fulfilled desires and fantasies for her to such extremes that she would never be the same. He opened doors to her soul.

This man seemed like a myth to Maggie because she hadn’t met anyone like that.

At least not yet.

As usual, Maggie was still working after eight in the evening. She finally closed her laptop and headed out the door. Her nights ended around eleven after she arrived home, changed into pajama pants and a T-shirt then nibbled on sushi or a fast food salad she picked up.

The medallion felt warm. She held it between her fingers and read the piece of loose paper.

Maggie,

You need this.

You’re always telling me you feel lost. That life is passing you by. If you really feel the need to be taken as never before or just can’t scratch that inner itch, let your mind wander and he will be there for you.

Tasha

Maggie set the note down beside her and stared at the piece of gold she was holding. It wasn’t fancy or exquisitely carved and shimmering as if it were finely polished. But something about it was intriguing. All the while she held it in her hand, warmth crept between her legs from within. Not from anything else but inner heat finding its way to her.

Her mind wandered and she began to think about what Tasha had written. She was a normal woman with normal needs. Her hand crept up her legs and along the hem on her skirt.
