About this listen
Twenty-three-year-old Olivia Rogers thought her desperate need to be owned, punished, and taken in the most shameful of ways was a secret known only to her, but she was wrong. Had she known the Institute existed, she would not have been so surprised to find herself captured, stripped bare, spanked soundly, and thoroughly dominated by a muscle-bound Institute trainer.
Gabriel's job at the Institute is simple. He teaches girls like Olivia exactly what it means to be owned, and he shows them both the intense pleasure of submission and the painful consequences for their beautiful bare bottoms if they attempt to defy their natural yearning to be mastered. Even Olivia's most private places will be explored and enjoyed by Gabriel and the other trainers, and their skilled, dominant lovemaking will leave her quivering with desire and aching for more.
But though her training at the Institute is intended to prepare her to belong to a powerful billionaire who will pay handsomely for her, there is another man with an interest in Olivia, a former lover determined to win her back. But how far will he be prepared to go to reclaim her?

Two hours ago, my ship reached the docks at Dryac. An hour ago, a slaver tried to drag me into an alley. Fifty-nine minutes ago, a beast of a man knocked him out cold. Fifty-eight minutes ago, I told my rescuer to screw off, I could take care of myself. Fifty-five minutes ago, I felt a thick leather belt on my bare backside for the first time. Forty-five minutes ago, I started begging. Thirty minutes ago, he bent me over a crate and claimed me in the most shameful way possible. Twenty-nine minutes ago, I started screaming.
