He grabbed her, taking her completely off-guard. Before she knew it she was stretched out over his knees, face down, hair dangling towards the carpet. She yelled, kicked and struggled but to no avail. He was far stronger than her and equally determined. She knew she must present a lewd spectacle with her bare bottom in the air. Helplessness swept over her...

Then her guardian appears and her life is never the same again. Suddenly she is subject to sexual discipline and domination and although she tries to fight back, she finds part of her welcomes his arrogance and cruelty. But just as she is grappling with the problems of having two lovers, she learns that her guardian may be a much worse villain than even she believes.
