Carlton was silent, his head down. He had never known shame like he knew it now. He had destroyed the life of a woman he cared for. He staggered to his feet as tears began to stream down his face, "I'm sorry, Leah. I know it's just words, but I really am."
“I hope words keep you warm at night. Goodbye, Carlton.” She walked over to the door and held it open, until he stood and walked out into the rain.
After the door shut behind him, she leaned against the door, drained but feeling oddly strong. She had stood up to him. She had not fallen at his feet. There would be time to discover what her emotions were and if he had a place in her life or not. She had control of her future.
That night, Carlton sat alone in the slave quarters, the firelight dancing over the fanciful walls. Justine was long gone to another person who would admire her and pet her. The rooms waited empty. He stared into the fire, desolate, a bottle of bourbon on the table, the glass in one hand and Leah’s collar in the other.

Anonymousabout 11 years agoI have read the entire story, including both endings and I must say that I find this end the best one. I also think that you could work with it, say show how they both change and grow over time and how their relationship progresses.
WolfBrother1983about 12 years agoI think Leah & Carlton could work, with time.
Anonymousover 12 years agoThis ending is awsome!!! Of all the endings for this story, I liked THIS one the best as eventhough she had feelings for him, despite her feelings and instinct to be at his feet, she still did not melt and held her ground. It is very important that as a person, she has got her own identity and individuality. If she wants to submit to him, then yes, she can, but then she also should have her own personality and choice to submit to him rather than doing it because she has got no choice. A Dom should not force his opinion and desires on her. The relationship is so much more beautiful and complete when its consensual and there is love. This aspect is proved by Raymond and Ming.
I really liked "Leah's bondage" a lot. Its certainly one of the best best stories in Literotica :)
Anonymousover 12 years agoI guess I really love this ending because Leah has held her own ground...!! As it is, it was not consentual but at least she has not lost her individuality !
Anonymousover 14 years agoYou are a beautiful writer.
I felt every emotion Leah went through and it was just heartwrenching when he sold her...
Keep on writing and I hope to see more of your work!
Anonymousabout 18 years agoIt's like this, I love your writing. You are an excellent story teller. But I thought that Carlton loved Leah. He was a good master. When she ran away from the hospital he rescued her. When she was still afraid of him after her took her home, it was only right for him to feel upset and desirous of her trust. He wanted Leah to feel for him as he felt for her, and after a while she did. At Alexis's house, she wanted him back. He wanted her back. They should have ended up together. I think that Leah did find pleasure in the BDSM lifestyle. So why does she say she has a problem with being his slave at the end. Carlton didn't really arrange for Fritz to rape her, did he? And during the time that Leah was at Alexis's home, you hardly mentioned Primrose. Then at the end of the story, she and Leah end up like sisters?? And this is why I'm lost: how did Primrose become so semi-important when she didn't even have any lines. And will someone please explain to me why Carlton is evil besides the fact that he sold Leah to Alexis. Also tell me why didn't Carlton and Leah end up together, regardless of whether she remains a submissive or not. (sorry for writing so much) :)
