he nodded and took a long swallow of the hazelnut roast with a happy sigh before snorting at Laci. "it's crap. it's literally crap. i mean, they take this bean out of poop." he pointed out to her. "it's disgusting." actually, that was Phil's coffee. he drank something he called Kopi luwak, which was literally coffee that was eaten by some cat species somewhere in another country and popped out, gathered after it was pooped out, and cleaned up, roasted and then brewed. Phil drank one cup a day and that was it. probably because one pound of Kopi luwak Coffee cost Phil upwards of a hundred to three hundred dollars and had to be imported. he didn't use a coffee pot for it either he used something called a French Press. then again Natasha and James used Espresso machines to make their morning coffee so Johnny couldn't really complain to much. well, he could, but no one would listen to him. besides, he had to admit, Phil's coffee, while so strong it could kill a bull elephant, was divine, though, the others took very tender sips when Phil let them have a drink. only Natasha and James made stronger coffee.
"you know, i'm not sure i like it either. but then i know everyone pretty well." he admitted. "it comes with what i do." he admitted. he had to always be very observant, considering he usually had a new sub every time, he needed to be hyper aware of their reactions. Laci, Tony, and the others where no different even if he wasn't Dominating them, or seducing them, or anything else. he nearly choked on his coffee and stared at her for a moment before smiling at her. "Laci..." he paused, hesitated and then. "first of all, your not to blame for what happened last night. that man was out looking, specifically for someone who had no idea what they where doing. he would have targeted anyone so long as they had never experienced BDSM for themselves before." he assured her. "second of all, if you really are interested, there is a level of research that you are going to need to invest in. i have some books you can read that will help you understand." he promised. "third, if you decide you really want to do this, then there is a very deep level of trust that must be maintained between the submissive and the dominant. i cannot show you anything, if you don't trust me, and i know you don't." he admitted. "if your still very sure you want to learn, then there are other people i could get for you, people who i know are safe and trustworthy, people who have trained, and make a living training new submissives." he admitted. "someone who you don't hate." he pointed out. "i'll get you the books first, read through them and decide if you really are interested. look online, talk to people who actually live the lifestyle." he urged. "you have to be the one to decide how far you want to go, and where you want to stop, and you have to be informed before you can do that."
