Thanks for the other day, Sir

Sorry you didn’t get a lot out of it

Tony

I didn’t go to your estate so that I could get off

Besides, I think Jaime had to thank you for how “worked up” I was when I got home

How are things with Santos?

Ev

Good, I think

I just keep worrying

He has a lot on his plate

I don’t want to be another thing he has to battle with

Tony

You mentioned something along those lines

Boy, speaking as a Dom, you’re not something he’s adding to his plate, you’re his key to get some fucking release

Ev

But he’s not a Dom

Tony

Yes, I heard that a dozen times

Does it matter that much?

Ev

No

I just worry, that’s all

Tony

Can I be frank, boy?

Ev

Of course, Sir

Tony

I don’t think you’ve had a lot of closure with that online Dom. Either that, or something about your dynamic with him has set you back, and until you figure out which one it is, and do something about it, you’re going to second guess every step you take with Santos. Which isn’t fair to anyone, but definitely not someone who, as you’ve put it, has other battles to fight

Ev

I’m not sure I follow, Sir
