Trapped Under Doctors Orders

The tsunami trapped me on an island with my doctor. Then he decided two weeks of isolation required a very thorough examination. I came to the remote research station to study the ocean. I definitely did not come to become Dr. Eric Stems' favorite patient.But when a tsunami slams into the island, the reinforced doors seal, the backup generator kicks in, and suddenly there are only two people left inside the station. Me. And him. Eric says we could be isolated for two weeks. No supply boats. No rescue. No one coming through those doors.Then he informs me that prolonged isolation requires careful monitoring of my physical condition. Daily monitoring. Very...hands-on monitoring. There's just one problem. I'm not actually his patient. I'm a twenty-three-year-old researcher.A virgin researcher.And I know perfectly well that whatever Eric is doing on that examination table has very little to do with medicine. I should tell him to stop but I tell him I want it and more instead.  I discover something horrifying. My body likes following the doctor's orders. Eric calls me his good girl when I obey. His pet when I surrender. He teaches me to count. To hold still.To ask properly.And when I forget the rules?Apparently my doctor has a very specific treatment plan for naughty patients. Soon the cold examination table isn't the only place Eric is conducting his lessons. There are ropes. Punishments. Spankings. Commands. More examinations than any insurance company would ever approve. And a humiliating number of occasions when the serious scientist in me completely forgets how to count.Eric says my body is learning what it needs.I tell myself this is only happening because we're trapped. Because the storm is raging outside. Because there is nowhere else to go. But that excuse becomes harder to believe every time I willingly crawl back into his bed. Because Eric isn't the only one changing the rules. I'm learning to ask.Learning to crave.Learning that surrender can feel terrifyingly good when I choose the man I'm surrendering to. And by the time the storm finally releases us...I'm no longer certain I want to be released from him.A shy virgin discovering she has a very dirty appetiteAnd one doctor who takes "e;bed rest"e; far too literally
