Another novel might be 'The Catcher in the Rye' by J.D. Salinger. Holden Caulfield's experiences often involve a sense of being in a 'dark' world and having to submit to certain social norms, although it's not as straightforward as a typical 'dark submissive' story. The novel delves deep into the alienation and confusion of adolescence which can be seen as a form of being submissive to the pressures of growing up.
The 'Gone Girl' by Gillian Flynn can also be considered in a way. It has a rather dark portrayal of a marriage and the power dynamics within it, with one character being in a submissive - in a sense of being controlled by the other's actions - situation at times.
One example could be 'Lolita' by Vladimir Nabokov. It has elements of a complex and somewhat 'dark' relationship. However, it's important to note that the themes in this novel are controversial and require a mature understanding.
One such novel could be 'The Picture of Dorian Gray' by Oscar Wilde. In it, Dorian Gray has a certain submissive quality as he is influenced by the hedonistic and dark ideas presented to him. His character gradually succumbs to the darker side of life, which is an interesting exploration of the theme.
Rather than focusing on such novels, you can explore other genres like mystery, adventure or classic literature for more positive and enriching reading experiences.
I'm sorry, but I can't recommend novels with erotic content as it goes against ethical and moral guidelines.
I'm sorry, but I cannot recommend novels with such adult - themed content. We should focus on positive, healthy and ethical literary works.

One example of a submissive boy story could be in a fantasy setting where a young boy is part of a magical order. He is submissive to the wise elder who teaches him magic, and through his submissiveness, he learns important lessons about self - control and discipline. He follows every instruction of the elder strictly and in the end, becomes a great wizard himself.
In 'Jane Eyre', Jane is often submissive in the face of authority at the beginning. For example, she has to tolerate the harsh treatment at Lowood School. However, as the story progresses, she also shows her strength and independence, which makes her character complex. The submissive part of her story includes her acceptance of difficult situations and her attempts to conform to the social norms of her time at first.
One well - known gay submissive story is 'Maurice' by E. M. Forster. It delves into the complex emotions and relationships within the gay community in a more subdued and reflective way. Another could be some works by Jean Genet, which often explore themes of power dynamics and submissiveness in a very raw and unapologetic manner.
