could willingly select your owner. If you did, it would then give you a belief of choice, which would make you feel in control of the relationship. You would then see yourself as the dominant partner. It’s unavoidable.”
    “So in other words, I would always see myself as in control because I selected them and could never truly submit to someone of my choosing.”
    “Yes.”
    Grace pondered the idea. But how could she take the risk of not choosing her partner? What if she didn’t like them? “What kind of Masters or Owners, whatever you call them, would be bidding? I know I don’t get to select the owner, but I’d like to have an idea of the types of people who’d be bidding.”
    Craig forced himself not to smile. He had her. All he had to do now was reel in the bait, and she’d be fully hooked. “Well…I normally don’t disclose this type of information. However, you are unique…You remember being introduced to Master Scott and Master Michael?” Craig watched Grace’s eyes flare at the mention of Michael’s name.
    “Yes, would they be bidding in the auction?”
    Craig could see that Grace tried miserably to hide her enthusiasm. Allowing a sly smirk to slip, he delayed his response.
    “Yes, they’re both looking for a slave and will be participating in the next auction. However, I’m not sure you’ll be ready by then.”
    Grace shuddered at the idea of Master Michael purchasing someone else, and a wave of jealously and panic flooded through her. She couldn’t allow that to happen. Not if she could do anything about it, anyway. “When is the next slave auction?”
    “In four days.”
    Grace quickly thought through the situation. She had only just accepted the idea that she could be a slave. Did she really want to jump into it so quickly? “What’s required for me to be ready for auction?”
    He was pleased. He would do everything in his power to make sure she was ready. “First, you’ll require a full medical and security check. These reports have to be given to and checked by the club before either party can participate. You’ll be provided with your owners’ documents before the slave contract is signed. You’ll also need to confirm you’re on some form of birth control.
    “At the end of the auction you’ll be required to immediately move in with your owner and be available for twenty-four-seven service. That will require you to not have a job or a home to take care of.”
    “I quit my job just before my divorce. I wanted a change of career, out with the old, in with the new. I could arrange for my apartment to be sublet. However, I would need some time each month to take care of my financial interests. There is also my family. Would I still be able to contact them and even see them?”
    “Some owners will not allow you any personal time, but all will allow you contact with your family, within moderation. As you are completely untrained, your buyer would make some allowances, and to ensure there are no misunderstandings, we’ll put a clause in your slave contract for personal time once a month, say half a working day.”
    Running through his mental list for Grace, Craig realized she would still need at least one day of training and education before the auction. “Very well, Grace, if you want to participate in the next auction, you’ve three days to complete the arrangements and finalize your personal affairs for the next six months. I want you here with your bags packed the day before the auction. You’ll need to spend some time at the club, being trained by Master Dan Thomson. He’s one of our most experienced dungeon Masters, and he’ll educate you in the Lifestyle and get you prepared as best we can on such short notice.”
    “We have a deal, Mr. Blackwell.”
    “Call me Master Craig. From this point on you’ll be called Slave Grace, until such time as your owner names you.” His voice had lowered and strengthened.
    “Very well…Master Craig. I have heaps to do, so I’ll
