I type5324,and I hear a beep after a moment.
"Thank you for calling, Temptation."
Cringe.
I must've been really drunk last night, to choosethatas my secret handle.
"We will now forward your call toDoctor Somebody."
It's my first time to hear what the other party's secret handle is, and his choice makes me feel just a tad better about the whole thing. I was afraid he'd choose something terribly clichéd like 'Dr. Charming' or go for something outright vulgar like 'Dr. Big Cock'. Something like the last would've been a complete deal breaker for me, and I'd have rather sold my kidney than push through with the rest of this.
But Dr. Somebody?
It feels 'safe' for some reason, but since Madeleinedidsay this guy was no asshole, maybe I'm just stressing myself out pointlessly again, and—-
CLICK.
Was that a click I just heard?
Does this mean we're on?
Is it time to start playing?
Oh shit, why am I acting like I've just joinedSquid Games?
Get an effing grip, Leah!
"Hello?"
The one who finally breaks the silence is the person from the other side.
I mean,end.
It's bad enough I got myself in this sex-fantasy-business, but saying the voice is coming from the other side would make things worse, since that means I've signed up to do kinky stuff with a ghost.
"It's Temptation, isn't it?"
The voice is deep but gentle, and there's a touch of some accent I can't quite put my finger on.
"This is Dr. Somebody."
His tone is calm but authoritative, and I find myself grudgingly acknowledging that the people behind SFI just might know what it's doing.
So far, so good, Andie's daddies.
Some girls might go for beta-type guys, and that's cool. I totally wish them all the best, but personally? Only an alpha-type dude can probablyforceme into being distracted, and I have a feeling Dr. Somebody here is as alpha as they come.
"I'm assuming this is your first time..."
Whoa.
Is he just going to straight up ask if I'm still a V?
"—-to consult a doctor by phone?"
Phew.
So that was what he was getting at.
