Book excerpt: "I am not a submissive; I'm Rika's Submissive". Geo, Ms. Rika's husband and lifestyle submissive, describes his commitment to serving the woman who literally 'wrote the books' on Service-Oriented D/s. In his own words, he details what it's like to dedicate one's life Submitting to this naturally dominant woman. Geo shares his real life experiences, taking us back through relationships before Rika; contrasting those power dynamics with submission "at Rika's whim". Join him as he describes the day-to-day service he provides, the motivations behind his submission, and the differences that make Ms. Rika unique. If you've ever wondered what it would be like to serve Ms. Rika - Read this book. After reading the book - and maybe finding some parallels to your own experiences - Geo hopes you realize that he's not a unicorn; he's not a mind-reader; he's not abnormally selfless, and he's not a weirdo; that it doesn't take any of those things to live to please your Goddess. He's unique, but not rare. He's just a man with an internal drive to submit - who got lucky enough to find the right dominant - one who would never allow him to drift from her vision of what he could be as her submissive. One who had the strength to insist on submission that focused on her preferences and expectations. Geo tells us that life under Rika is unpredictable, challenging, frustrating, maddening, exhausting, and sometimes even a bit painful. It also happens to be exhilarating, enlightening, joyous, sexual, satisfying, and immensely fulfilling.

Young Aaden has lost his music; beautiful Lunette has lost her voice; bold Annora has lost her future, and all three hope something on the path can restore them. Rika finds he has lost his detachment, and as he sinks more deeply into the lives of his travelers, he realizes this trek down the Lane may change his entire life.

Take another trek into the world of Balia in this installment of the Tales of Balia, the Christian romance/fantasy series about a rich land not so different from our own and the god who wanders it looking to save lost people and bring them home.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After generations of war, the fragile new peace hangs by a thread, as Ryuven attacks continue despite the treaty. Shianan leads an exhausted army facing a fresh and magically superior foe. Worried for Ariana, not yet returned from her own deployment, and as demoralized as his soldiers, Shianan is unprepared in every way when Flamen Ande, high priest of the Gehrn cult, reappears to demand Luca back. Luca was once enslaved to Ande, but that was a lifetime ago, before the fall of the shield, before the battle that nearly killed the prince-heir, before the desperate truce and the unexpected massacre by magics they could not resist. But that was also only months ago, and thanks to Luca's devastating honesty, Ande is newly absolved by the court. Tamaryl has sacrificed too much for this peace, and he will do whatever it takes to preserve it—even bring more Ryuven to fight in Chrenada. When he is given a cruelly impossible choice, he must decide where his faith lies and who can be trusted with the salvation of his people. Ariana has irrevocably committed herself against the king's will, but that may be the least of her troubles as she is targeted by those who would use her for revenge. Between human and Ryuven assailants, she must risk all on a defense no one else can use. Kin & Kind is the final novel in the action-packed Shard of Elan series!

Download or read book The Joy of Denial written by Ms Rika and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2017-05-13 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ""I find few more satisfying exhibitions of power and control than deliberately creating desire - only to capriciously deny it."" Ms. Rika uses her extensive experience in the world of D/s to create five reality-based stories of desperation, lust, and love in a world of female dominance. If you've ever enjoyed the thrill of control, you'll love reading Ms. Rika's evil, creative, and somewhat sadistic accounts of women taking control of a man's desire. As with Rika's non-fiction books on D/s, her approach to power dynamics is centered around the dominant - what they want, what they need. In ""The Joy of Denial"" she explores how Tease and Denial (T&D) can be used as a tool to that end.
Download or read book Commands written by Alexandra Y. Aikhenvald and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017-07-04 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the form and the function of commands—directive speech acts such as pleas, entreaties, and orders—from a typological perspective. A team of internationally-renowned experts in the field examine the interrelationship of these speech acts with cultural stereotypes and practices, as well as their origins and development, especially in the light of language contact. The volume begins with an introduction outlining the marking and the meaning of imperatives and other ways of expressing commands and directives. Each of the chapters that follow offers an in-depth analysis of commands in a particular language. These analyses are cast in terms of 'basic linguistic theory'—a cumulative typological functional framework—and the chapters are arranged and structured in a way that allows useful comparison between them. The languages investigated include Quechua, Japanese, Lao, Aguaruna and Ashaninka Satipo (both from Peru), Dyirbal (from Australia), Zenzontepec Chatino (from Mexico), Nungon, Tayatuk, and Karawari (from Papua New Guinea), Korowai (from West Papua), Wolaitta (from Ethiopia), and Northern Paiute (a native language of the United States).
Download or read book Strict Women written by Annabelle Watson and published by . This book was released on 2021-01-31 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this collection of provocative confessions, both women and men speak of how they came to discover what really gets them going when it comes to a dominating woman taking charge with a strict hand. It is a raw and sometimes extreme look at how the power dynamic between a woman and a man can play out in an infinite number of ways both sexually and in their overall relationship. The act of a woman physically disciplining a man is at the heart of each narrative, but the way in which this evolves in each instance is very broad and much more complicated than the simple motion of a female's hand striking a man's body. The obsession with spanking and being spanked runs throughout most of the personal revelations, but they go far beyond that to deeper needs, to traumatic early-life experiences and to broader visions of living a life in a matriarchal society. Spanking is tied up in so many emotional, psychological and physical dimensions that it is impossible to distill the whole world of getting a good hard whipping into simple depictions. Yet, it is possible to take the broad array of men and women who have either gotten disciplined or have done the disciplining in a strikingly memorable way and let them speak for themselves. The stories collected here are chosen from a vast array of confessions due to their unique qualities. There were many similar stories I came upon but the ones printed here really stuck in my mind as being especially exemplary of women with deep desires to spank and men with endless urges to be spanked due to unusually powerful events or people in their lives. The characters run the gamut - fierce-willed wives, bossy bosses, Femdom-believing heads of households, strict stepmothers, spanking addicts, firmly disciplined males, corporal punishment proponents, humiliated cuckolds, strict black queens, power hungry girlfriends, naughty boys and philosophers of matriarchy.
