I think you deserve kudos for at least attempting the 2nd person POV. It's an interesting way to write, but in this case feels a tad unnatural. Maybe it's because it just feels like like the narrative voice is some neutral dis-embodied being addressing the protagonist, in which case a 3rd-person narrative feels more suitable.

In my limited experience, 2nd person works best for impressionistic, highly emotive short stories where the narrative voice is a real person addressing the protagonist, using a very emotionally charged language, almost like a 1 on 1 conversation, for example maybe a parent leaving a message behind for their child.

But anyhow, kudos for trying

I write nuanced, character-driven erotica that explores where our deepest desires come from and the lengths we'll go to just to satisfy them.
