KNEEL TO ME edited by
Lauren P. Burka

ISBN
978-1-885865-54-0

$6.99 ebook

Circlet Press brings you
seven erotic stories of
dominance and
submission that will return you
to the
moment when a master, mistress, or slave
first stepped out of a story and made you theirs.
The submissives, slaves, and bottoms you
will
meet here are tough and competent. No
passive
orifices, they are
beautifully-realized individuals with the spark that makes them
recognizably
human. In “KATT,” the slave
is a beautiful android who fights to hold
on to the precious scrap of her life after a disaster. The
servant in “Lord
of Misrule” knows that
his relationship with his master requires something other than
obedience. The slave in “Raiders from the Stars” learns
that much more is at stake than his personal
gratification. In “Personal
Benefits,” the
highly-trained contract slave offers the pleasure of perfect
obedience to the powerful woman who owns her.

discover
how a witch really likes to
punish naughty interlopers, why Beauty might love her beast more
than the prince, how
to produce handy
bruises when a pea just won't do the trick--and
more. Ranging from present day to "once upon a time"
settings, each
story offers a fresh
perspective to both legend and BDSM.
