“It’s okay. I won’t do anything big, just drinks and some finger food. I’d love to have it at the café. It’s private and there’s plenty of parking.”
“What do you think, Allyson?” Crystal asked.
Allyson froze. “I’m sort of new to the lifestyle, but I think having a place where subs can talk and ask questions would be a good idea.” It was a fantastic idea. It would help her understand better, and she was sure it would help others too.
“Lara, I want to pay for the food,” Sierra sad.
Lara started to shake her head.
“What if all the subs chipped in each week?” Allyson suggested; it would make her feel better if she could contribute something. “This way no one person would bear the cost, and sharing the expenses would make everyone feel like they were a part of the group.”
“That’s a great idea,” another woman said as she sat down on another sofa with another woman.
“Hi, Regina, Harper,” Sierra said. “This is Allyson, Zeke’s sub. Allyson, Regina and Harper; they’re what we call club subs.” Sierra waved her hand at the two women.
“What she means is that we’re not attached to a Dom; we play with who we want to,” Regina said.
“I love this idea of us subs meeting. I know there are things I still have questions about and don’t want to talk to a Dom about,” Harper said.
The women all looked at each other, and in that instant, a bond formed.
“That’s it. Everyone will have an equal voice in the group. Brilliant, Allyson,” Sierra said.
“The expansion of the café is done, so we can use that space,” Lara said.
“How does a week from Sunday sound to hold the first one? That will give me time to talk with the other subs,” Sierra said.
“We can help,” the others chimed in.
“We have the best group here.” Sierra smiled. “For those of you who don’t know, Allyson works at the code enforcement office.” She turned to Allyson. “Can you tell us about your job?”

“How are things going with Allyson?” Max asked when Zeke joined them after his first shift was done. Damon had walked off to do his shift with Colby.
“Good.” He’d talked to Max off and on about Allyson, being pretty general, but Max had given him some ideas.
“I’d say it’s going well since you got her here,” Jordan said.
“Yeah.”
“They’ve been in a deep discussion for a while now; I wonder what they’re talking about?” Zeke asked. He glanced over at the women. He’d been checking in on Allyson visually as he worked. She was relaxed, laughing and talking with the women. That made him happy.
“Probably the sub meetings,” Max said.
“Sub meetings?” Zeke asked. It sounded interesting.
“It was something we discussed a while back,” Jordan said. “Damon had read about them. The concept is the Doms have their own group where they talk with other Doms about anything and everything with no repercussions. The same should go for the subs.”
“I’ve been told there are some things a sub can’t or maybe won’t ask their Dom,” Max said.
Zeke frowned. Did Allyson feel that way? He told her she could ask him anything.
“I think the subs feel better talking with other subs, especially the women,” Jordan chimed in.
“That’s true,” Zeke rubbed his chin.
“All right, I think it’s time I steal my lady away for some play time.” Max broke away from the group and walked over to the women. He took Sierra’s hand, pulled her to her feet, and led her away from group as Sierra laughed.
