Songs of Submission Series by C.D. Reiss

Jonathan Drazen is a known womanizer and a gorgeous piece of man I'm not letting into my heart. Ever. Yeah, he's rich, beautiful, charming as hell, and he has a wit as sharp as a double-edged razor... but he's made it perfectly clear that this is a short-term fuck. Three nights, tops, then we part like sexually satisfied grown-ups. I believe him when he says he can't love me. I'm not trying to fall in love, either. We get in. Get it on. Get the hell out. Done. Right? Right.

When Jonathan was gone I couldn’t stop thinking about him, and the first thing he did when he got back was demand more of me. I’m willing to give him my orgasms and my time, but I find myself giving up pieces of my heart. My career is on track, and even though I can’t write a thing, I can sing. So I’ll go to the art opening with him, because his ex wife will be there. I feel this need to protect him from hurt, though in bed, his domination brings me to my knees... moreWhen Jonathan was gone I couldn’t stop thinking about him, and the first thing he did when he got back was demand more of me.

"You’re mine. The minute I told you to spread your legs and you did it, you were mine. When I told you to beg for it and you did, you were mine. When you put your hands behind your back without being told, I owned you."No. God, no.My name is Monica, and no matter what Jonathan says, I am not submissive.

The world through Jonathan Drazen's eyes. Sequence One Beg Tease Submit Sequence Two Control The Songs of Dominance were released as an experiment. They were traded peer-to-peer on the Goodreads group, CD Canaries, and on my Facebook page. But the stories have become canonical, and things are revealed here that will be come important later, so I feel they need to reach a larger audience. Please read these after Submit, or you're going to run into major spoilers... moreThe world through Jonathan Drazen's eyes.

What you’re breaking isn’t some little, meaningless coupling. We aren’t some casual fuck, and we never were. Not from the first night. Not from the first time I laid eyes on you. You were built for me. I denied it as long as I could, but we were meant to be together. You are the sea under my sky. We’re bound at the horizon.

Here's how it's going to be, Goddess. Until you surrender yourself to me fully, I will not touch you. Until the world can know you belong to me, I will not kiss you. I'm going to be inches away, at your side. I'm going to whisper in your ear and put my breath on your neck, but the heat of my skin will not feel the shudder of yours until you commit yourself to me completely and without reservation.

A short song about Rachel.Do people like you ever have wishes, Jonathan?What does that mean? People like me?People who have everything. Was there ever something you wanted, but could only wish for?It's not necessary to read this story if you're reading Songs of Submission, but it'll get you through the long wait to Book Six.

The story of Jonathan Drazen and Monica Faulkner continues. And it's time Monica stepped up to the plate. I looked down at him, with his tourmaline eyes and copper hair and believed him despite my better judgment. Then I forgave him despite my misgivings. I loved him just because I did. My heart wasn’t sensible or guarded enough. Not by a sight... moreThe story of Jonathan Drazen and Monica Faulkner continues. And it's time Monica stepped up to the plate. I looked down at him, with his tourmaline eyes and copper hair and believed him despite my better judgment. Then I forgave him despite my misgivings. I loved him just because I did. My heart wasn’t sensible or guarded enough. Not by a sight. I was a walking raw nerve ending of emotion, as if the years I’d spent away from men and sex had made me more emotional, more vulnerable, more foolish than before. I ran my fingers through his hair, feeling like the victim of a crime of consent. less

Take my hand, my love. On sinews of air we tread. Aught but distance our guide. With no tempo to our gait. No endpoint drawn. Neither plot nor plan. By the thorns of a compass rose. We bound toward the horizon.

Short. Free. To be read after Sing. This little short will be sent to the mailing list on 11/15/2013 in gratitude of all my fans have done for me. It will be part of the Coda, which is an epilogue of Jonathan and Monica's story. I will release it on Amazon for 99c for the sake of convenience. You can wait for Coda, or another mailing, or get the story from a friend. Your call. I have no release date for Coda.

Jonathan Drazen. Gorgeous. Check. Charming. Check. Smart. Check. Rich. Hey... I'm not gonna complain. All the ingredients for a few nights of mind-blowing pleasure are right there. He's made it perfectly clear he can't love me, and I'm not out to fall in love either. But I can't stay away from him. He's got this bossy way about him in bed.

The stunning epilogue to the bestselling Submission Series. Did you want a pat little ending about Jonathan and I riding off into the sunset? Did you want flowers and stars? Man, I wish it was all soft filters and violins. I wish we could fight about who cleaned the bathroom or who was cooking dinner. But I knew I was never destined for simple contentment. I almost committed murder for him. I almost tore us apart to save him... moreThe stunning epilogue to the bestselling Submission Series.

Now I have to survive it. less
