Currently re-reading Banner Year by Shrink42, in it is a character named Jeremy who works as a trainer. He takes a slow firm approach with a submissive woman, thinking it would take him a year to fully train her. I'm looking for the step by step manipulation, if that makes sense. Thank you in advance for any suggestions.
The following involve long-term builds of D/s relationships, but may not be what you're looking for.
Spring Training by Colt45
Growing Up a Master by MWTB
For step-by-step manipulation, So Easy by Topcat. Some others of his may fit your bill as well.
Similarly, Owen Grows Up and No, Michael by Chemical Ollie.
Frankly, I'm looking forward to others that might turn up in the responses - what you're describing is true Mastery, rather than just situational dominance. The difference is night and day, and it's delicious.
Hardass and The Bet by Sandpiper (Wes Boyd) so also on his own SpearfishLakeTales site with the longer Slippery Slopes which fits between. Slippery Slopes is more how a sub trains a man to be her master!
