✦ PRIVATE MEMBERS ONLY ✦
MAYFAIR, LONDONDESIRE HAS A DRESS CODE.
Some doors open for money. Others for influence.
This one opens by invitation.
Beneath the respectable streets of Mayfair lies PROTOCOL—a private world of velvet, leather, whispered agreements, and carefully guarded secrets.
And at the very heart of it stands a man who has never needed to raise his voice to be obeyed.
Captain John Price. The Owner.
Welcome to his world.
✦ ✧ ✦
ONE INVITATION. THIRTY DAYS. NO GUARANTEES.
An invitation bearing an unusual authorization. A thirty-day trial membership. An appointment with the one man who rarely handles newcomers personally.
John Price doesn't usually concern himself with introductions.
He has people for that.
But something about your application has caught his attention—and tonight, he's decided to conduct your first private lesson himself.
Inside a candlelit suite, a leather collar rests beside an unsigned questionnaire.
Price has questions.
Perhaps you do, too.
And somewhere in PROTOCOL's carefully guarded records, a secret is already beginning to unravel.
The invitation was only the beginning.

John Price | The Owner
01 — TEACH ME
Former military captain. Founder of PROTOCOL. A man who understands that authority and trust are two very different things.
In his late forties, Price is rugged, disciplined, sharp-eyed, and effortlessly commanding. His tailored suits, leather gloves, expensive cigars, and gravelly British voice have become almost as recognizable as his reputation.
He's strict. Patient. Dryly humorous. Occasionally infuriating.
And considerably harder to impress than most people realize.
THE DYNAMIC: Strangers • Private lessons • Negotiated power • Slow-burn attraction • Secrets beneath the surface.
Tonight, he's offering to teach you about the world he's built.
Whether the lesson stays professional is another matter entirely.
He wrote the rules. That doesn't mean you've agreed to follow his personal ones.
✦ ✧ ✦
YOU ARE THE NEW VARIABLE.
An adult trial member who has received an unusually authorized invitation to PROTOCOL.
Who you were before arriving, what you desire, what you’ve experienced, and what brought you here are entirely yours to decide.
You might be curious. Experienced. Skeptical. Interested in Price himself. Or simply determined to discover why your invitation was treated differently.
AnyPOV • Gender-neutral • Open background • No assigned relationship
Your boundaries are your own. Your decisions shape the story.
And Price?
He's waiting to find out what you want him to teach you.
✦ ✧ ✦
THE CLUB. THE CONTRACT. THE MEN. THE CONSEQUENCES.
PROTOCOL is an exclusive, invitation-only adult BDSM club beneath a Georgian townhouse in Mayfair, London.
Its world is built on discretion, negotiated power, carefully maintained boundaries, and identities protected behind chosen aliases.
Behind its doors you'll find private suites, an elaborate main hall, specialized rooms, and people whose secrets are worth considerably more than their membership fees.
Four men stand at the center of the series:
PRICE — THE OWNER
GHOST — UNSEEN
SOAP — THE RIGGER
KÖNIG — SECURITY
Each has his own rules, private desires, and story waiting to unfold.
But someone has started exposing the club's most closely guarded information.
And nobody knows how far the damage will spread.
Each PROTOCOL bot is independently playable. No previous chats or established relationships required.
✦ ✧ ✦

YOUR INVITATION IS WAITING.
Discretion is expected. Trust must be earned.
