Master (MxB) novel Chapter 13

Hayden's POV

It's official, I'm a fucking coward. I'm a grown ass man, a fucking Dom and I'm sitting in my office, hiding from an eighteen year old boy.

Why, you ask? Well for the same reason I've been in here for most of the past week, when I was home. That reason's name is Corey Reylan.

Although I wasn't exactly safe in here either. I've had to switch off the computer monitor that held the camera images of his bedroom as well, just to give my poor cock a break, because the naughty little imp was using it to torment me even further.

So what could such a sweet boy be doing to cause me to hide from him, you ask? Well, I'll tell you. He has turned my entire seduction game against me and I didn't even see it coming.

I'm pretty sure Tana had something to do with it though, because Corey was such a shy little thing and quite innocent. But the things he had been doing this last week was enough to test the patience of a saint.

Let's rewind back to Corey's first day back at school and I will explain what this boy has been doing to me.

I know I had started this whole thing and I had deliberately spilled the coffee all over my suit, just in time for when Corey would get to my office. So I stripped out if it, asked Kendall to get me a clean one and to just send Corey in when he got there, to which she just smirked at me and left.

So he had come into my office while I was in nothing but a pair of boxer briefs. I admit, it was a low tactic, but it was a lot of fun to see the blush spread over his cheek bones as he tried to look everywhere but at me.

I kept my face neutral as I looked at his reaction and had to contain the smile that was threatening to burst from me.

After a few minutes of silence, Kendall knocked on the door, so I went and opened it, and she handed me my clean suit and shirt. You're evil, she mouthed to me and I almost let a chuckle slip at that.

To be fair, I probably was being just a little bit evil. I mean, Corey was as innocent as they could get and I was basically corrupting him more and more by the second.

I shut the door and quickly got dressed, thinking that Corey had enough for one day and he seemed to relax a bit and pulled out some books and did his homework while I checked some emails and caught up on paperwork.

By six thirty, I was finally done and I looked up to see that Corey had packed his things away. He seemed very deep in thought about something.

"I know I said I would show you some of how the company is run, Corey, but I guess time just got away from us today. I didn't realize how much work I had to catch up on, so I'm really sorry." I told him, jolting him from his thoughts.

The minute he looked up at me, his face heated in a furious blush and I would give every last thing I owned to know what he had been thinking about at that moment.

"Um..I-its o-okay, I had h-homework to d-do and s-something I n-needed to f-figure out." He mumbled as he quickly looked away, seeming to look around to see if he had all his things together and packed away.

By this time I was very intrigued, but I didn't want to make him feel awkward, so I left it alone, just nodding in agreement.

We grabbed our things and made our way to the elevator, then down to the ground floor, where Greg was waiting for us by the car. Kendall had left quite some time ago, saying she had to meet Tana for some reason.

We chatted a little as we made our way home and it seems the day at school had gone well, apart from some staring and whispering.

He seemed to get lost inside his head again, only coming back to the present as his phone dinged. He looked at the screen and started typing quite fast, but I wasn't able to see what it was as he had the screen at an angle, away from my view.

We eventually made it home and I was a bit surprised to see Kendall's car parked in the driveway. I wonder what she was doing here at this time of the night, when she was supposed to be with Tana.

I didn't have to wonder for too long though as Tana came bouncing through the front door and stood bouncing on the spot as Corey and I got out the car.

Kendall came out at a more sedate pace and I raised an eyebrow at her. She quickly put her hands up in defense and pointed at Tana.

"Don't look at me, she wanted to see Corey about something that was apparently urgent." She said as she smiled at the bouncing girl.

Honestly, Kendall deserved a medal, because I would get exhausted just looking at the hyper girl.

Corey blushed again as Tana came running up to him and, luckily for her, gave him a soft hug, while whispering in his ear.

Next thing I know, Corey was being dragged inside the house and I was left outside with Kendall, wondering what the hell just happened.

"What is going on Kendall, and don't tell me you don't know, because I know you better than that." I said as I folded my arms over my chest and gave her a stern look.

She grinned at me and shrugged, " I honestly don't know Hayden. Tana just asked me to meet her at the mall and when I got there, she had some bags in her arms and said we had to come here, because she needed to drop some stuff off for Corey. I thought she had just bought him some clothes, because his were all left at his parents house, but now I'm starting to wonder about what was in those bags." She said, looking back at the house, a frown creasing her brow.

I looked at my friend for a few more seconds, before I started making my way into the house.

We could hear Tana's excited chatting from the foyer already and I was getting really curious to know what was going on. I wasn't going to intrude though. Obviously, if Corey wanted me to know then he would tell me himself. So I made my way to the kitchen, with Kendall following me and I offered her something to drink. She opted for a water so I grabbed two bottles from the fridge and handed her one of them.

We were talking about some work related issue, when Tana and Corey came walking into the kitchen and I choked on the sip of water I had been swallowing.

Corey's cheeks were bright red as he stood slightly behind his friend and fiddled with his fingers, while Tana looked like she could barely contain her excitement.

I managed to calm my coughing eventually and took in what Corey was wearing. The boy was absolutely stunning in the skin tight, ripped skinny jeans he was wearing. The jeans were paired with a slightly see-through black shirt that clung to him like a second skin. I looked down at his feet and he was wearing a new pair of black combat boots.

Did he have any idea how much he looked like the submissive boys at the club? Obviously not, as he didn't know about any of that, but he would fit right in with them and it was such a gorgeous look on him. I wanted him to be mine more than ever before and it was pure torture to not go up to him and just lift him up into my arms.

I finally noticed that he was slightly trembling with nerves, so I cleared my throat and forced my body to behave.

"You look absolutely stunning Corey." I told him with all the sincerity I felt inside and I saw the small smile appear on his face, instantly making me smile back at him.

"Um.. thank you Hayden." He replied and I could feel his relief at my words. I looked at Tana who had a huge grin on her face and she gave me a knowing look. Instantly, I looked at Kendall, hoping she hadn't said anything about my lifestyle, to Tana.

Kendall gave me a small shake of her head, to say no and I looked back at the mischievous girl, who was, if possible, grinning even wider. How had she figured it out? I asked myself, but before anything else could be said, she told Corey that they had to go and she will see him the next day at school.

The girls said their goodbyes and quickly left as I turned away from the temptation that was Corey and started pulling out ingredients to make us something to eat. I had considered getting some takeout but this would at least keep me busy and keep my mind off of Corey, who was now perched on a stool on the other side of the counter.

It was hard to focus as my mind and eyes, kept drifting back to Corey and how deliciously sexy he was looking, but I managed and finally we were able to sit down and start eating.

After dinner, Corey said he was tired and was heading to bed, so I went to my office to check on a few things I would be needing for a big meeting I had the next day.

As usual, I sat down at my desk and immediately my eyes went to the monitor that held the surveillance footage and I pinpointed the one for Corey's bedroom. I saw him enter his bathroom and close the door, so I started going through the files for my client. After a few minutes though, my eyes went back to the monitor, just in time to see Corey come out of his bathroom with only a towel around his waist.

"Who pissed in your cereal, Mr Lawson." Dean asked and you could hear the amusement in his voice.

"What do you want Dean? I'm a bit busy right now." I grumbled, not in the mood for my cheerful friend.

"Whoa buddy, what's going on? You sound stressed." He dropped his teasing immediately.

I almost wanted to tell him to mind his own business, when thoughts of Corey walking around his room in just a towel popped into my head again.

So I proceeded to tell him everything, and by everything, I do mean everything. My frustrations, my fears of his reaction if he ever found out about me, everything.

He listened in silence as I spilled out a whole week's worth of frustration. Eventually I was done and the line was silent for a moment as he processed what I had told him.

"Let me get this straight." He started and now the amusement in his tone was even clearer. "Corey has figured out your little game of teasing and he has completely turned the tables on you as well as upping the stakes?" He asked and I heard a chuckle in the background. That meant Leo was there and he had heard everything I had said.

I rubbed my hand over my face and sighed again. "Yes, now please help me figure out how to get out of this situation, because I honestly don't know how much longer I would be able to resist without snapping." I told them truthfully.

"Okay, okay, calm down. Jeez, you sound fucking grumpy." He grumbled. Well he would be feeling grumpy too if his dick felt like it was going to snap off any fucking second.

Before I could tell him that though, I heard Leo's voice. "Maybe it's time he knows Hayden. That way you would know one way or another. You will be able to explain our lifestyle to him and if I'm being honest, I think he would accept it and probably excel at being a sub. He shows all the signs if being submissive already and if you explain everything properly, you might just be surprised at his reaction." What he said made a lot of sense, but I was still very worried and hesitant.

"Leo is right Hayden. You can't hide who you are forever and he's playing with fire and pushing all of your buttons without even realizing what he is setting himself up for. Rather be honest and if I've read that boy right, you will have a sub again within no time." Dean added and I sat back in my chair, thinking about what they were saying.

"So how do I do this guys? I can't just go up to him and blurt it out." I finally said. This needed to be done carefully.

"Well, you said you always keep your playroom locked, right?" Dean asked and I frowned at where this was going.

"Yes, and?" I asked. He needed to get to the point.

"Well, what if you go in there when you know he has to go past that door and just leave it opened slightly. Curiosity should do the rest for you and when he 'catches' you in there, you can quickly explain what it's all about and see how it goes from there." It was a very simple and straightforward plan, but so many things could also go wrong at the same time.

"I don't know guys, what if he runs before I can explain anything?" I asked, feeling slightly out of my depth. I've never had to do anything like this. I have always interacted with experienced subs. They knew the deal and they weren't afraid of our lifestyle.

"Lock him in there before he can run and then he will just have to listen to you. Come on Lawson, don't be such a baby about this. Everything will work out just fine. That boy wouldn't be teasing you like this if he didn't want you as badly as you want him. This will just add some fuel to an already burning fire." Leo laughed in the background and I saw his point.

If Corey didn't want me then why would he be teasing me in the first place?

We sat talking for almost half an hour longer and by the time we cut the call, I had a firm plan in mind and I was just praying it would work out. I couldn't lose Corey, he meant far too much to me and if he wasn't comfortable with my lifestyle, then I would gladly give it up for him.

Corey was quickly becoming the center of my entire existence and I would do anything and give up anything for him.

I switched on the surveillance monitor and I saw him sitting on his bed, with his tablet in his hands. He was probably reading one of the stories on that app he had downloaded. He seemed to be really into whatever he was reading and I saw him giggling and laughing every few seconds at something.

I got up and made my way out the office, towards my bedroom. Tomorrow was going to be very interesting.
