The Puppet’s Master

He walked into the darkness, chasing a dream of surrender. He found a man who refused to break him — and a world that might.

Ivan is almost eighteen — beautiful, fragile, and running from secrets too heavy to name. Craving a place to belong, he steps into the club, offering himself for the life he thinks he wants: a life of obedience, pain, and pleasure.

Draco, the club’s reluctant Master, sees through Ivan’s bravado to the shattered boy underneath. He refuses to train him, refuses to touch him — determined to send Ivan back to a world where boys like him aren’t lost to men like Draco.

But Ivan stays. Day after day, he slips into Draco’s office like a silent prayer, a reminder of everything Draco is trying to protect — and everything he’s dangerously close to losing.
In a club built on consent and craving, one boy’s desperate need and one man’s battered heart collide.

And as Ivan’s past begins to close in, the choice becomes brutal and clear: save the boy… Or let the darkness claim them both.
