Two weeks before finals, Shen Luxi found a patron on some abandoned forum.
The moment the video connected, all she could see on the other end was a blur of darkness, and hear his voice.
Low, calm, and unquestionable.
“First time mentoring a newbie,” he said. “Don’t make me regret it.”
She thought it was just a transaction: he would trade discipline for her obedience, and she would trade obedience for a chance to save her grades.
Then she went out with her roommate and failed to complete her assignment.
His voice turned cold through the video call.
“Xiaoxi, do you think you can just ignore what I say?”
She panicked, afraid he would abandon her.
“Get on the bed. Close the curtains. Kneel and write.”
“You’re not allowed to sleep until you finish.”
She knelt on her dorm bed, pulled the curtains shut, and propped her phone against the pillow.
She couldn’t see his face on the screen, but she knew he was watching.
At two in the morning, she finished the last problem and whispered, “I’m done… Daddy.”
She herself froze as the word “Daddy” slipped out.
But he only smiled, his voice turning gentle again.
“Good girl. Be a good girl and go to sleep.”
She thought she was taking advantage of his discipline.
She never realized that from the moment she first knelt down
She already belonged to him.
“You’re my good girl, and you always will be.”
