The Handler

Daniel Manning disappears in daylight.
He works, eats, sleeps, folds laundry in silence. To neighbours he is polite, forgettable, barely there.

But when night falls, he steps into the glass room.
Gloved, unflinching, he becomes The Handler ~ ringmaster of the city’s most secretive sex club.

He commands gangbangs like orchestras, baptises men in sweat and piss, fists them open until their bodies become prayer. The crowd presses against the glass, hungry, whispering his name.

He is worshipped at night. Invisible by day.
And beneath it all, Daniel aches for one thing he cannot command.

Love.

Eight parts. Eight rituals. One man split in two.

The Watcher ~ Part Six

In the glass room, nothing moves until he does.
Three men kneel, stripped of armour and held open by rope and want, waiting to be shaped. The crowd watches in reverent silence as The Handler steps through the door, bare-chested, gloved, and in complete command.

What follows is not a show, it is devotion made visible. Names are given. Bodies marked. Limits rewritten. A choreography of pain and praise unfolds beneath red light, each stroke and plug and moan building toward a release so raw it stills the room.

But when the curtain falls and the night empties, something far more dangerous waits outside.

Now Daniel must face the one thing he never prepared for: being seen after the ritual ends.

A chapter of worship, rupture, tenderness, and the first crack of something that feels like love.
