<p><span >Ann and Ishaya had been dating for a little under a year, and between work, friends, and family, they craved a little peace and quiet. A friend offered them a secluded house, situated beside a lake, with no neighbors for miles. It was the perfect escape and the perfect place to explore each other a little more deeply.</span></p><p><span><br></span></p><p><span>The first night was cozy: wine, soft music, dancing across the rooms. But it was on the second night that the air shifted.</span><br></p><p><br></p><p><span >Ann had always had a crazy kink. She brought a small black box in her luggage Ishaya noticed, but she didn’t open it until the second glass of wine.</span><br></p><p><br></p><p><span>“I thought,” she said, voice low, “we might play a game.”Ishaya raised</span><span> a brow, “What kind of game?”</span><span>She handed him the box, Inside the box was a cuff, a blindfold, a soft leather paddle, and a small bottle of scented oil.</span></p><p><span>Ishayas pulse quickened, and he asked“You want to try all these?”Ann nodded</span><span>, her gaze steady on him and she answered “Only if you want to.”</span></p><p><span><br></span></p><p><span>They started with subtle kisses, Ishaya wrapped the cuffs around her wrists gently, testing how she reacted. Ann melted into him, surrendering slowly, her breath shaky as he knotted the cuffs. The blindfold followed, shutting out the lights and sharpening every sound and every touch.</span><br></p><p><br></p><p><span>He explored her with his fingertips, warm oil and slow kisses down her spine. She whimpered when the paddle met her skin with a soft thud, a little pain but mixed with pleasure. Her body arched into it, wanting more.</span><br></p><p><span>For hours, they explored without rush. They created a rhythm between moans, kisses that ignited a steady fire, and a closeness neither of them expected.</span><br></p><p><br></p><p><span>In the morning, the rooms were quiet, the lake still. Ishaya made tea shirtless while Ann, still bare beneath his vintage shirt, leaned against the kitchen counter. </span><span>"That box,” he said, “might’ve been one of the best ideas you’ve ever had.” Ann grinned</span><span>“Good. Because I packed two more.''</span></p>
At the end of each month, we give out cash prizes to 5 people with the best insights in the past month
as well as coupon points to 15 people who didn't make the top 5, but shared high-quality content.
The winners are NOT picked from the leaderboards/rankings, we choose winners based on the quality, originality
and insightfulness of their content.
Here are a few other things to know
1
Quality over Quantity — You stand a higher chance of winning by publishing a few really good insights across the entire month,
rather than a lot of low-quality, spammy posts.
2
Share original, authentic, and engaging content that clearly reflects your voice, thoughts, and opinions.
3
Avoid using AI to generate content—use it instead to correct grammar, improve flow, enhance structure, and boost clarity.
4
Explore audio content—high-quality audio insights can significantly boost your chances of standing out.
5
Use eye-catching cover images—if your content doesn't attract attention, it's less likely to be read or engaged with.
6
Share your content in your social circles to build engagement around it.
