Subject: Our Conversation Yesterday
Ellsbeth,
After giving the matter some thought, I agree that it might be possible for us to enjoy our complementary proclivities without any emotional entanglement.
But to make that work, I will need you to be…
cooperative. As a scholar, you are served by your willfulness and your impatience and your pride.
But those traits make me wonder if you can really let someone control you in the way you say you want.
So first I would require a demonstration of your willingness.
When you come to class tomorrow, I want you to wear a top that is low-cut enough to be revealing, and a skirt that is short enough to draw attention, with nothing underneath.
Given the weather, a coat or sweater is permitted, so long as it is removed when you take your seat.
And since you are so proud of your punctuality, I want you to come five minutes late, and make a convincing apology to me and the entire class.
You will sit in the front row and take notes diligently. When I look at you, you will part your thighs and show me that you have cooperated fully with my instruction. Nothing underneath.
I think I have been clear, and there should be no need to write back until your demonstration of willingness is complete.
Rawlins
