"The Alex Series" Book 3: "Brandon's Bosses"

This is the third book of a series. Each book can stand alone but it is preferable to read them in this order:

  1. The Alex Chronicles

  2. Sweet Subjugation

  3. Brandon's Bosses

If this book is read as a standalone, there will be references to things that occurred in the first two books in the series.

I love to hear from readers. subkodak25@gmail.com

Chapter 1. Spanking?

What's been happening?

One of the first things 18-year-old Brandon did when he got home from the U, even before he went to his Nana's, was to stop in a hair salon and all his very long and tangled black hair cut off, and he left the salon with a bald head as a way of symbolically cutting his ties with the past, and with his former Master who enjoyed playing with that hair all the time, especially when he was being made to suck His cock. He had a good mind to put it all in a box and send it back to the Master he had quit but then he thought better of it. He wanted all ties to be cut, just like his hair was.

Brandon's first semester at the U ended on a difficult and painful note, as related in the story "Sweet Subjugation." He's decided not to return for the Spring semester but will remain at home and work on-line with the Publications Division of his step-father Barry's Corporation while taking one course in creative writing at a local college.

He and his "straight" friend Gary have a wonderful time together over the colleges' Winter Break. Gary has been a great support to him as he struggles to recover from his break-up with Justin, who had been training him as a BDSM slave during his first semester at the U, and to process the painful and disappointing things that had happened there.

Brandon's mother and his new step-father have returned from their overseas honeymoon on January 10, and Brandon and Barry ("Dad") have spent as much time together as Barry's demanding schedule allows. As so often happens in fiction, it conveniently turns out that Barry is well acquainted with the BDSM scene since his own brother Kurt is a leatherman living with his own long-standing slave/lover in San Francisco. Barry has encouraged Brandon to go to visit them, but Brandon just wants to settle back home while he tries to make sense out of what had happened to him and to figure out where he goes from here. His experience did not turn him off to the lifestyle, but it has left him emotionally damaged and unwilling to make the same mistake again.

On January 18, Gary will head back to his college for the next semester, so as the date draws near, Brandon is preparing to say good-bye to his lifelong friend. He will miss the understanding support that Gary has provided, but fortunately he has made new friends in the gay community in his hometown, especially a 22-year-old man named Gavin who himself is a kinkster. Brandon is reluctant to get involved with anyone else while still grieving his break-up his former Master/lover back at the U.

As this story opens, Brandon and Gary have been moving his mother's belongings from her former home (which she has deeded to Brandon) to the beautiful new home which she and her new husband have purchased, wishing to both leave their former homes and make a "fresh start" with a new home and furnishings. Most of the move is now completed and the boys are enjoying a cozy supper with Mom and "Dad" (Barry).

"Sweetheart, we've set up a special room for you here, so please come by any time if you start feeling lonely after Gary goes back to school," Mom tells him.

"I appreciate that, Mom, but I think it is important for me to learn to stand on my own two feet. It's strange not being surrounded by other college students like I was at the U, but different circumstances always demand new adjustments, and I actually appreciate the privacy and silence and I think I'll be okay when Gary goes back to school. One thing I definitely learned last semester is that I'm actually pretty flexible."

"And you're a survivor," Barry reminds him. "I just hope that you don't quickly end up in another relationship as a way of coping with what you lost, and you know exactly who I'm thinking of."

"I keep telling you, Dad, don't worry about that. I'm glad I met Gavin because we have a lot in common, but we've already decided that friendship is more important than anything else right now. I'll be fine. I promise."

"We're always here to help as well, "son," anyway we can, so it's good that you are establishing a support network and don't have to feel like you're completely alone." (Barry and Brandon have decided to try out the titles of "son" and "Dad" for a while and see if they'll work out. Brandon has pointedly asked Barry never to address him as "boy," because that's what Justin used to call him all the time when not using other names.)

"I know, Dad, and I'm grateful for all the support I have, and please don't worry about me, Gary. I'll be fine. And I promise to keep you posted about anyone I may end up getting interested in. But for now, I find that I have little interest in anything like that."

"And we'll hold him to it, Gary, I promise you," adds Barry.

"And you can always stay here, sweetheart, especially when Barry has to travel for work. We've always been pretty good at keeping each other company," says Mom as she puts another piece of pie in front of him.

"No thanks, Mom, I couldn't eat another bite. Besides, Gary and I have to get going. We promised to meet Gavin and his friends at the club. It's an "under 21 nite" there."

"But aren't Gavin and his friends over 21?" asks Mom.

"Most of them, I think. Mom, "Under 21" doesn't mean that no one over 21 is welcome."

"Sure. They like to be on hand to look over all the fresh meat," quips Gary.

"Gary!" yell Mom and Barry and Brandon, all at the same time, and then they all burst out laughing, as the boys put on their coats and give out hugs good-bye.

"And don't you dare cock-block me again or I'll never . . . " Brandon says to Gary as they head to the car.

"You'll never what?" asks Gary, coyly.

"I'll never stop thanking you, I guess," admits Brandon. "I'm glad you overheard that guy tell his buddy that he'd have me stripped and bound before the night was over. Last thing I need at this point."

"Just remember that. You owe me, faggot!"

"Owe you what, breeder?!"

"Owe me what you used to do for me, dude," says Gary lasciviously.

"Sorry, pal. My days of giving non recip blow jobs are over. Got that well out of my system last semester when Master kept my dick locked in a cage all the time."

"Brandon, you have simply got to stop using that word all the time. You do it without thinking. `Master this, Master that.' Those days are over, dude."

"Sorry, Gary. Force of habit. Hard to shake."

"Well, I'm going to keep nagging you about it until you form a new habit."

"Maybe it means something, though, Gary. Maybe it means that I'll always be thinking like a slave."

"Well, then, just be my slave, dude."

"Gary!!!!"

"I'm only kidding, Bran, don't worry. And anyway, I always get offers when I go to the club with you when your back is turned. I have to keep letting people know that you and I aren't a couple. Speaking of cock-blocking, you do the same to me."

"Gary, I really think you have to give some thought to why it is you like getting blow jobs from guys so much but continue to claim that you're straight."

"The secret, Brandon, is what I'm thinking about while some guy is going down on me."

"So you say, dude, but I can't get inside your head to find out if you're telling me the truth."

"Maybe I'm thinking it should be you blowing me, my little subby friend."

"We're here. Just in time. This conversation was going absolutely nowhere. You hear me, Gary. "Absolutely nowhere!"

"Let's just get inside. And don't let me catch you making out with Gavin again."

"Oh come on, Gary. We weren't making out. it was only a quick kiss. Although, I don't think I'd mind . . . "

"Stuff it, buddy. Last thing you need is to be seen making out with a guy who always has handcuffs handing from his waist."

"Hey, maybe it's good advertising."

"do you really want that reputation getting around town?"

Brandon looks defeated. "Honestly, I don't know what I want anymore."

"Can the `Debbie Downer' routine, Bran. Put on a happy face or I'll take you over my knee."

"Maybe that's what I need. To be over someone's knee again."

"I told you, Brandon. I'll be happy to take you over my knee if you blow me after I make you cry."

Brandon pretends not to hear him as he opens the door to the club and goes inside where the music is so loud that one has to shout in order to be heard. Nonetheless, he's beginning to wonder if he should take Gary up on his offer. Too many dreams lately about getting spanked. But they often turn into nightmares when suddenly that spanking turns into the last brutal flogging he got from Justin the night Justin came back into town and he wakes up screaming. Thank God it never happened when Gary was staying over.

"Hey, there's Gavin. And who's that hot girl with him and his friends?"

"Hold your horses, Gary. She's probably a dyke."

"Just my luck."

"Well, if you started hanging around straight bars for a change, you wouldn't have all those disappointments."

"I'll have plenty of time to do that when I get back to school. Besides, the drinking age up there is still 18."

"Sure. And leave it to you to pick a school that isn't gay-friendly."

"Didn't pick it. My parents did. Wanted to make sure your gayness didn't rub off on me."

"If only they knew, dude, what we did during those sleep-overs."

"they probably did. That's why I'm up at Maryville Academy!"

"Is that really what they call it?"

"no. I just made that up myself when I found out that nuns are still teaching there."

"Enough." Brandon waves to Gavin and he gestures for them to come over.
