Julian and Karl are a strange couple. Karl is a big scandinavan man, 6 and half feet tall and with long blond hair, like the classical Odin imaginary, but he is a bottom in a BDSM relationship. Instead I imagine Julian like the classical professor english type, lean and fair (we really don't have a physical description of him, so I have developed my own imagine).

This is a short story, 30 pages, so it's not more than a scene (in the very meaning of the word). We can say that Julian and Karl are a "new" couple, given they haven't yet try all the possibilities in their relationship and it's not yet decided if they will be together for a long time, or only for some months, till the things between them are still good.

Julian wants to bring their relationship to a new level, of intimacy and trust, and in this night he also wants to prove to Karl that he can find what he searches with Julian, in his home and in his arms.

There is a game of trust between the two, even if Julian "forces" something with Karl, even if Karl has not said aloud his agreement: but Julian knows it's time for them to try it and perhaps his being the top in this relationship is due also to that.

For a short story, it has two uncommon characters who make it a worthy reading.
