  COMMENTARY

I've got mixed feelings about this story.

It is not my cup of tea.  Regardless of whether Helena, deep down 
inside, was perfectly okay with working off her debts by sleeping 
with a complete stranger or not, for the most part this story made my
skin crawl.  I'll admit that I was aroused by the way Helena 
responded to Dan's commands, but at the same time I still was not 
over the feeling that something about this scenario was very wrong.

Technically, it is well written.  I just had a hard time identifying 
with either character.  That made the story less enjoyable for me.
