Brenda had been most cooperative this morning, allowing herself to be bathed, fed and dressed with nary a flinch nor a whimper of protest, even though I had awoken her long before the sun puttered into the sky behind the thick gray clouds. I closed the door to the studio where Brenda stood in the middle of the room on one foot, with her other leg bent over, its ankle cuffed to its matching wrist. Her opposite hand stretched toward the ceiling, suspended in a cuff by a quivering chain. Not the least comfortable position in the world. But I was feeling quite charitable. So far, anyway. Sabrina was still sound asleep on my bed, so I laid out her clothes for the morning, unlocked her chastity belt, and went downstairs to cook myself breakfast. Fifteen minutes later, I was quite pleased to hear my shower running. When it stopped, I put our plates into the oven and met her coming out of the bathroom, her hair still dripping. "I think you're going to need some help getting dressed this morning," I said jauntily as I held up the hourglass corset. "But let's eat breakfast first. Turn around, please." Click, click, sang the handcuffs, with an encore from the lock around her waist. After I finished feeding her, we returned to my bedroom, where I spent the next hour lacing her into the corset, as well as the thigh- high boots and a matching pair of shoulder-length gloves. I was thrilled with the way her waist narrowed to the point where I could almost touch my fingers when I reached around it. She, however, didn't seem too enchanted by the constriction. Sabrina would make quite the domme, I thought to himself as I watched her check herself out in the full-view mirror. And now she gets the chance to prove it. I led her to the door to the studio and clicked on the light at the top of the stairs. "Hi, Brenda. Ready to go to work?" I had to admit my neighbor did look great in rubber. Tottering on a single ballerina heel laced to her foot in an old-fashioned button boot, her body shimmied and swayed as the light reflected off the polished latex that covered every part of her from calves to skull, with the exception of her eyes, her groin area, which was striped with rubber garters holding up the stockings, and her breasts, which poked through holes in the breastplate of her outfit. An Elizabethan collar rose from her neck like an inverted lampshade, making it impossible for her to see what was happening to her body below. The only visible color besides her pink flesh was the white of the lace headpiece and apron, and the bristle end of the toilet brush sticking out of her mouth. I strolled over to Brenda's extended frame and let down her ankle, then her wrist overhead, quickly snapping her gloved hands into cuffs dangling from a cincher belt buckled tight around her waist. "Brenda and I had a very productive discussion about her situation this morning," I lied to Sabrina, having said nothing to our guest beyond single-word commands since throwing her in the cage the night before. "Obviously, she understands her complicity in your unexpected visit to her house yesterday afternoon, and desperately wants to make suitable amends that don't involve my friends in those snazzy blue uniforms," I continued. "However, it seems Brenda has developed a rather severe cash flow problem." I pulled out the wad of bills Chin had given me yesterday. "I haven't bothered to count this yet, but I'm sure it represents a great deal of her total net value. Maybe she even borrowed some from her friends in the van. No matter. It's mine now." I passed the roll in front of Brenda's wide eyes before stuffing it back into my pocket. "I like to think of myself as a reasonable man, within reason. In this case, I should simply pocket the proceeds and have you arrested for kidnapping, perhaps rape, maybe attempted murder. But I imagine the legal process would be ridiculously long, complicated and tiresome. So I'm going to propose a different plan." I walked over and stood next to Sabrina. "From what I've been told, the best hookers can make $1,000 an hour, but for that kind of money, limits are pretty much out the window. However, I'm going to pay you exactly that amount for services rendered from now until you work off your entire debt to me and Sabrina." I turned to address Sabrina. "Darling, the house is a mess, and unfortunately, it's now your job to maintain it. However, you can call on Brenda any time you need some special assistance, and she'll drop everything to serve you. Isn't that right, Brenda?" Despite the brush handle in her mouth, the words "fuck you" were clearly audible. "Ah, that's exactly the spirit." I walked over to one of the boxes and pulled out a strap-on dildo, which I buckled around Sabrina's crotch. "I want you to start with the toilet in your bathroom. There are more cleaning supplies under the sink. Please feel free to use anything of mine in these boxes that you may require for proper motivation." I turned to start up the stairs. "Oh, there's one more thing, Sabrina," I said. "I must warn you that you are ultimately responsible for Brenda's competence. If her work does not meet my expectations, you are the one who will be punished. I will be in the barn. See you in an hour or so." --SABRINA-- Once in the guest bathroom, I ordered Brenda to kneel down and start scrubbing the floor behind the toilet. When she refused to comply, I stressed my point. "Listen, you bitch. Instead of having fun with Geoffrey, I'm stuck with you in this fucking bathroom. This truly pisses me off, so get to work or--" I lifted the whip I had selected and applied it to her bare ass with a violence that neither of us expected. Brenda let out a muffled cry and looked at me with fear in her eyes. Good. She knew I wasn't kidding. Brenda got down on her knees and began scrubbing hard, her breasts sagging below her and moving in rhythm with her head. Should have brought nipple clamps, I thought with regret, but I had been so surprised with the turn of events that I had thought of little else beyond the whip. When I was satisfied with the bright shine of the tiles, I smacked her buttocks, less hard this time, and ordered her to clean the toilet bowl. Once again, she balked and, squatting negligently in front of me, challenged me with her disobedience. I sighed too loudly. "You don't get it, do you, Brenda?" Thwack. On her breasts. Again. Harder. The third stroke missed her breasts, but came very near her chin. She started, hitting her head on the wall behind her. "You see, I'm not very good at this. No practice, you know. So I'm gonna use this whip on you until you get your face down the toilet and I hear the sound of the brush on the ceramic. And if that doesn't work, I'll use this," I said, pointing at the dildo strapped around my crotch. "And not necessarily in the right hole." She winced as the leather strap bit into her right nipple, but got up on her knees and stuck her head into the bowl. I was glad she took my threats seriously. Looking down on the unnatural apparatus he had fixed on me, I grimaced at the obscene image of me using it on Brenda. This wasn't the partnership I had hoped for, I reflected while my unwilling maid was hard at work. I could have enjoyed this kind of game with a young woman, or better yet, a young man who would take pleasure in submitting to me. But not with a dominatrix who had tried to get rid of me and claim Geoffrey for herself. Brenda was nothing but a threat, and I strongly resented her presence here. Instead of the sexual pleasure that such a scene should have inspired, the room was filled with anger, spite and disappointment. How long would I have to put up with this? I knew the price Chin had offered, and that meant Brenda would stay with us for days until she bought her freedom back. This was never going to work. "Brenda, stop," I said, using my normal, quiet voice. Her red and sweaty face came out of the toilet, and she looked at me, puzzled. "I don't like this." Then, seeing she didn't understand the meaning of my words, I went straight to the point. "I don't want you in this house, Brenda. In fact, I never want to see your face again." The way she straightened up showed me she knew where this conversation was heading. Her expression shifted from concern to curiosity. The self-assured Brenda was resurfacing. "I'm going to help you out of here," I went on, walking towards her. "But let me warn you..." I took her chin in my gloved hand and pulled her head up, forcing her to look at me. "If you ever talk about this to anyone, I'll bust you for kidnapping and attempted murder. Is that clear?" Brenda's vigorous nod was all I needed. I let her stand up and we both went two floors down, back to the studio. I had never seen Geoffrey use more than one or two keys on my restraints, and I suspected most of the locks were identical. My guess was right; once I had found a set of spare keys in a drawer, it only took me a couple of minutes to free Brenda of her bondage. "Pick up some clothes over there," I told her, waving to the rack. While she removed her rubber costume and searched for a new outfit to wear, I sat on the edge of the stage, oblivious to her presence in the room. I wasn't happy about countermanding Geoffrey's orders, but this was sadly necessary. I hadn't come to term with my own feelings, let alone my relationship with him, and I didn't want to confront an interloper like Brenda at this early stage. I had enough to worry about: leaving my apartment, quitting my job, and not being able to tell a soul of my new lifestyle. But Brenda interrupted my musing. "He's going to punish you for this, you know," she said. I raised my eyes to meet hers. "I know." Then, as we stared at each other, we followed the same thoughts, and suddenly all the tension dissipated as we broke into laughter. "Well, Sabrina," she said, "you do deserve him!" I smiled and got up. "I don't know if I deserve him, but I'm going to find out. What about you? Are you going to stick around?" "No, I don't think so. You've kinda ruined my reputation." Brenda winked before continuing. "I think it's time to move my dungeon to a new location. Maybe somewhere sunny." I nodded, relieved to know she was getting out of my way for good. Remembering the ticking clock, I ushered her out. "Take the front door and walk to the main road. I'm sure you won't have trouble getting a lift dressed like that." She had put on a leather micro with enough cleavage to attract the first male driver passing by. And her stiletto heels would do wonders, too. After a short but sincere goodbye hug, I watched Brenda disappear down the driveway, and went searching for the few accessories I needed. Negligence was better than sheer disobedience, I thought to myself while I buckled the penis gag around my head. I entered the cage that lay in the middle of the stage, shut the door and finally cuffed my hands to a bar in my back. I didn't think I'd have to wait too long until Geoffrey found me. --GEOFFREY-- "Sabriiiina, I'm home," I said in my best Ricky Ricardo imitation as I shook off the rain from my slicker. No response. Strange. I hung up my coat and went upstairs, only to find an empty, yet clean bathroom. "Sabrina, Brenda, where are you?" I called out, trying to mask my sudden nervousness. Had something terrible happened? I had been careful to lock up Brenda securely. Had she somehow gained the upper hand? In this case, no news is definitely bad news, I thought as I made a quick check of the bedrooms, then the first floor. Finally, I hurried down the stairs to the studio. "What the fuck?" I blurted when I saw Sabrina gagged and cuffed inside the cage that had held Brenda only hours earlier. Before I realized what I was doing, I had wheeled around and stormed back upstairs. Yanking my slicker off the hook, I kicked open the back door and stepped off the porch into a driving downpour. Great, and the car's tires are flat. Going to have to ride one of the horses to Brenda's house. I ducked my head low and headed down the path toward the barn. That fucking bitch. Lord, I would make Brenda pay this time. None of this nice-guy stuff like this morning. I'd even scare myself with the tortures I'd inflict on her. As water streamed down my forehead into my eyes, I started to build my case. Brenda must have somehow overpowered Sabrina. But how could she have gotten free? Had she forced Sabrina to unlock the cuffs? Not very likely. Meaning what? Sabrina set Brenda free intentionally? Then why was Sabrina locked in the cage? My foot slipped sideways in the mudslide that had replaced the dirt path to the barn. Shit, what was going on here? There was no practical way Brenda could have escaped without Sabrina's help. Did Sabrina let her go, then allow herself to be locked in the cage? If that was the case, why? Okay, so maybe Sabrina didn't fancy herself much of a top, although she sure looked like a pro that afternoon when she whipped Brenda all the way to the barn. I stopped and stared back at the house, now barely visible through the mist. Or maybe Sabrina didn't want anything to do with Brenda, and this was her way of putting things back the way they were 24 hours ago. But even that was a puzzle, because as I recalled, she had been on the verge of leaving me, then she asked to be strapped to the cross, then all hell broke loose. But it seemed to me that things had been quite thoroughly helter skelter long before Brenda and her droogies arrived. I desperately wished I could go for a ride, but I didn't dare risk one of the horses taking a fall on the slick turf. Instead, I turned around and headed back for the house, quite unsure of what I was going to say, much less do, to Sabrina. I lowered my head and jammed my hands into my pocket, my fingers bumping into the roll of Brenda's cash. I wondered if she was really gone for good. If so, this wad would cover a lot of corsets. I reached the house and peeled off all my soaking clothes on the porch. After a shower, I changed into a simple shirt and leather pants, then went downstairs to my studio to start the rest of our lives. --SABRINA-- Shit. What was Geoffrey doing? My stomach was so cramped that I was afraid of throwing up the minute he took off the gag. He had come and gone like a fury. And he had looked so angry, I instantly lost the quiet resignation I had built up while waiting. Oh, he wasn't angry at me. But he would be. Once he found out. Because I was certain he would know what really happened; either he'd have enough clues to guess, or I would simply tell him. Presuming Brenda didn't beat me to it. I had made up a plausible story, though. Brenda had suddenly looked very uncomfortable, like she got hit by a terrible pain. When I ungagged her, she told me something inside the rubber costume was biting through her skin. She thought she was bleeding. A bit of nonsense, I admit, but she looked really bad and, well, I'm afraid I believed her. So I took her down to the studio to take off her bondage. And, well, she somehow managed to take control of the situation. Oh, sure, I should have called him instead, but I didn't want to bother him, and I thought I could handle this all by myself. I was sorry. Really. I wasn't sure Geoffrey would buy it, but he had no evidence to the contrary, so he'd have to believe me. But I hadn't thought he would take the matter so seriously. He looked really mad. Now I wasn't so sure about my story. I was such a bad liar, too. That's when the cramps appeared. I had thought all I would have to go through was a good whipping for my negligence, and I knew I could handle that. But it suddenly became obvious that a whip would be much too amenable a tool for such a terrible act of disobedience. What else could he do? By the time Geoffrey returned, I had imagined so many horrid tortures, he hardly needed to punish me anymore. I was already burning in hell, with guilt and remorse as my companions. And my worst fear was that he would send me away. He remained silent until I was out of the cage. Then he unbuckled the gag and, letting me sit on the nearby stool, he finally spoke. "What happened?" I swallowed and wished I could ask the Starship Enterprise to beam me up. Danger ahead. "I...Brenda...she..." Oh lord, I looked up and saw he was calmly waiting for an answer. But his piercing eyes belied his cool attitude. "I...I...let her go." I closed my eyes, waiting for the lightning to strike. "Why?" He was so calm, my fears doubled in intensity. "I...I..." He sighed. "Don't test my patience, Sabrina." "I didn't want...I was afraid you'd..." Then I cracked up and a flow of words came out as if a dam had been broken. "I know what I did was terribly wrong, but I'm losing my senses here. I can't think straight anymore. You've had me on a bloody Tilt-o-whirl for almost two weeks, and I don't even know who I am anymore. And then yesterday, I was kidnapped. Now, this probably looked like another fun game to you, but not to me. Those guys were awful, and I panicked at the thought of being sold to some fucking Asian whorehouse. Then I had to fight Brenda, and you know, I've never fought anyone or anything beyond the flu. Then I rode a horse, for crying out loud, and in case I haven't told you, horses scare the shit out of me! And then there's you. One minute, you kiss me, the next you bring this...this woman to your house." I was crying, but nothing, not the tears, not Geoffrey's bewildered look, not even the fact that I knew I looked stupid and probably made my case worse, could have stopped me from talking my heart out. "And, and you never tell me anything, and I never know what you want or feel. Hell, I don't even know what's happening to me. Why do I want to stay here with a man I hardly know, who has me gallop in a dirt ring, or won't let me say more than two words? This is a little bit too much. Just a little bit too much. But I do, you know. I do want to stay." I felt pathetic, but at least I'd gotten it out of my system, and a weight had been lifted off my chest. I realized this outburst would probably earn me the door, but maybe Brenda was wrong. Maybe I didn't deserve him. --GEOFFREY-- I stared at Sabrina silently for several heartbeats, focusing on the imperatives of the situation. Upon reflection, I was quite pleased about the way events had transpired, as the last thing I needed was a full-time girlfriend with dominatrix designs on me; one of Brenda's many fatal flaws. But this one couldn't even pretend to be a top. Instead, Brenda had been given the bum's rush, and Sabrina had jailed herself. Encouraging. And so were her last words...soon to be famous. "So you want to stay," I said slowly. "Yes...please," she finally added. "You realize that means you will be treated in a manner many people would classify as cruel." "Yesss...please." "No better than chattel not fit for the harem." "Yes, please." "My fucktoy." "Yes, please." "My painslut." "Yes, please." "A fetish doll." "Yes, please." "A leather slave." "Yes, please." "A rubber maid." "Yes...yes, please." "A masturbation aid." "Yes, please!" "An animal." "Yes...please." "Furniture." "Yes. Just plain yes, damn it!" "That didn't sound like 'yes, please.' Open your mouth." I picked up the penis gag off the floor and installed it. "Hands behind your back." Properly attired with the cuffs behind her back, I beckoned her to follow me upstairs. "Come." --SABRINA-- And here we go again, I thought to myself while Geoffrey was leading me upstairs. He hadn't helped me clear my state of confusion in the slightest, but I felt better, safe in the knowledge that he was back in command. I followed him like a faithful dog. I had no tail to wag, but physical reactions appropriate for a human female proved that I was pleased. He opened the doors to his master's suite and, once inside, ordered me to stand still. He first unlaced the corset, bringing an involuntary sigh of relief to my mouth as my torso suddenly recovered the few centimeters it needed to breathe fully. Next, he removed the boots, leaving me with nothing but the shoulder-length gloves and the chastity belt. Geoffrey turned his back to me to rummage in the upper drawer of a massive oak chest. He took a moment to look out of the window on his left side and seemed happy to notice the rain had stopped. With the shadow of a smile on his face, he came back to me, holding two black dildos, one too long, the other too wide, which soon filled me as he locked them under the belt. Finally, he walked to the huge wardrobe on the other side of the bed and opened a side door where neat piles of T-shirts and sweaters covered all the shelves. Except for the bottom one, I noticed as I moved closer, following his order. The last compartment, high enough to store a big travel bag, was completely empty. Well, no, not completely. There were leather straps hanging from the sides, and two iron bolts strangely drilled at equal distance in the middle of the wooden base. "Get in." I gave him my best "are you crazy?" look, but seeing he meant it, I knelt down and crawled inside the closet. When my cuffed hands touched the back frame, I folded my legs against my chest and realized I fit into the case perfectly. My head was barely scraping the upper shelf. Geoffrey knelt down to tie a large strap around my waist, pinning me to the frame without the slightest slack, and then fixed my ankles to each side of the compartment. With my crotch exposed, he had no problem padlocking the chastity belt to the bolts. There's a purpose to every single fucking screw in this house, I wanted to tell him sarcastically. When I thought he was finished, he inserted one finger between my vagina and its chromium protection, and twisted the bottom of the occupying force to a very low setting. And he closed the door. For the first few minutes, I let my thoughts wander back and forth between the past events and my unknown future. I had felt so good last night, when I had fallen asleep in his lap, I thought my doubts had dissipated completely. But knowing what I wanted didn't put my inquisitive mind to rest so easily. My body had been tamed, but my spirits had a hard time waving the white flag. I wondered how long it would take to appease that part of me, the part that was always trying to be in control, on top of things. The part that needed to understand, to give a rational reason to everything I did or feel. Could it be tamed, too? I trusted Geoffrey to do what was right. My problem was, I couldn't trust myself to do as much. Soon, the vibrations, low as they were, became too distracting and, before I realized it, they took control over my rebellious thoughts. My body was aroused while my mind was put at peace. This is why I'm in here, I mused while I slowly surrendered to the physical sensations in my vagina. I don't know how he does it, but he knows me better than I know myself. Here I am, not a slave, not an animal, not even a piece of furniture. Just a household object he has put away until he needs it. And this oddly erotic image doubled the effects of the vibrator. When a sudden ray of light blinded my eyes, accustomed as they were to complete darkness, I was enthralled by the growing pleasure buzzing inside me. A heavy blend of sweat and horse smell reached my nostrils, and I inhaled more deeply. Responding to this strong male intrusion, my sex clenched the dildo a little tighter, too. "Since you're enjoying this," I heard Geoffrey say without seeing his face, "I'll take a shower and let you enjoy it a while longer." Oh, no. Now I was truly needy. And knowing he was so close, naked, taking a shower, turned me into a horny beast. While I heard the faint sounds of water running in the bathroom, I imagined his hands on my body, caressing, rubbing, pinching. The vibrations of the dildo became his own pulses inside me. He was fucking me, but, Lord, not hard enough. Losing my sense of reality, I tried to move my hips to accelerate the rhythm, but both my back and crotch were firmly immobilized, and I moaned desperately. His shower must have been the longest he ever took in his life. --GEOFFREY-- Sabrina must be insane, I told myself while toweling off. Most girls inevitably gave up the game and return to their boring lives and loves. Just like that Hole song; they get what they want, and they never want it again. But Sabrina was turning into the Energizer bunny of bondage. She keeps going and going, no matter how horrible her fate. I began to feel bad that I had kept her in such a state of agitated confusion for so long. But better to get these things out in the open early rather than have the "honey, we need to talk" conversation six months later. Because I really didn't want this relationship to rust like most of the others had; victims of excess and guilt and boredom and whatever else turned the wine of passion into the vinegar of partnership. I didn't even bother to get dressed. "Sabrina," I said after I had taken her out of the closet, removed all her encumbrances, and sat her naked on the side of my bed. "Here's the straight story. I like you very, very much, and I would very much like you to move in with me as my official and exclusive girlfriend." I shut up for a moment to let her absorb what I had said. "If that works for you, that is." After several heartbeats passed, I felt a surge of panic, thinking she was going to finally say no. Then she looked at me unblinkingly, took my hands into hers, and clenched them tight. "On one condition," she said with the barest hint of venom. "No other women. Ever." "Agreed," I said without hesitating. "Then yes, please, and thank you," she replied, smiling broadly. I pulled her close to me, our bare chests pressing against each other, and gave her a kiss that I hoped would make her see stars. "You must be starving," I finally said when we disentangled several minutes later. "Why don't you go downstairs to the kitchen and rustle yourself something to eat while I get dressed. Oh, and Sabrina..." I picked up her chastity belt off the floor and held it out to her. --SABRINA-- Still fazed, but happily so, by Geoffrey's offer and his quick acceptance of my exclusivity demand, I took the belt in my hand. Contrasting with my body temperature, its metallic touch felt icy cold and definitely unwelcome. After his passionate kiss, I refused to believe he really wanted me to put it on. I was starving, but not for a plate of salad. If there was ever a right time to ask him a special favor, it was there and then. I decided to take my chances and slowly lay down the belt on the side of the bed. "Would you please...make love...to me?" One second of silence. "Say that again." "Would you...fuck me...please?" I repeated while I mentally added "and if you refuse, you're obviously not doing yourself a favor either." "On one condition," he said with the barest hint of irony. "You don't come until I say so. In fact, from now on, this will be a permanent rule." I so desperately needed to be fucked that I would have agreed to anything. In truth, I had no idea of how I would refrain myself from coming if he teased me the way he usually did. But I dismissed the thought as a technical detail I would deal with later on. "Agreed." Stepping closer, he took me under the arms and pushed me further on the bed. I lay down, unsure of what to do with my free hands. I wanted to grab him, bring him closer, dig my nails in his back, but I was too conditioned, too well "trained," I guess, and I simply raised my arms above my head in a gesture of submission. Reading my body language perfectly, he put an end to my hesitations. "Grab the bed frame and don't you dare let it go." While I was restraining myself, he got to work, exploring my body as if he discovered it for the first time, but slowing down in those places that had a direct line to my sex. I wished I could tell him to skip those preliminaries, since I was more than ready for the final act, but I had to take what he gave, even if it made me growl like a wolf. Feeling his crotch so close to mine, I straddled his back with my legs and pushed him down. "Legs down and spread out," he ordered, half serious, half amused. I resumed the position and tried not to lose it again, Geoffrey's will becoming mine, his command becoming my aim to please him. My hands clenched the wooden frame harder as I strained to lie still. When his fingers brushed against my clit, on their way down to my sex, I felt a small quake in its surrounding area. I remembered my promise and wondered how I was going to keep it. --GEOFFREY-- After teasing Sabrina for a few moments, I finally entered her with an erection that felt like it was made out of metal. I could instantly tell she was struggling mightily to restrain herself from letting go, and truth be told, I was thinking an awful lot about the Yankees, the grocery list, and that time I saw my grandmother naked when I was five. I had waited much too long for this moment, and now I had to deal with my bravado about her only being allowed to come on my command. No way was I going to come first. I tried to slow down my rhythm, but that almost made things worst. I sneaked a peak at Sabrina's face. Almost smirking. I considered pulling out, but then I was either going to lose it on the bed, or I'd have to sneak off to the bathroom. Maybe a grand finale in her mouth; no, that wasn't really fair. To either of us. Besides, I was really enjoying this battle of wills, not to mention the liquid silk between her legs. But I had a weapon I had forbidden from her arsenal; my fingers. I reached down and brushed a nail against her clitoris. Maybe three seconds later, she was bucking like a bronco after being branded. On my next thrust, my cock responded in kind. "That's...going...to...oh, forget it," I laughed as I held her in my arms, enjoying her convulsions almost as much as my own. "You can...let go...of the sides...of...the bed...if you want," I added, trying my very best not to pant. Apparently, she did, as she hugged me hard enough to make breathing difficult. I rested until my heartbeat returned to human levels, then maneuvered my face in front of hers. "You really want to stay?" "Yes, please!" she responded, practically giggling. "Agreed." Well, who was I to argue? I rolled out from under her and off the bed onto my feet. "I shall forgive your earlier outburst of speech, but coming without permission will not be tolerated. Downstairs. Now." She popped off the bed, her body glistening with sweat and other fluids. "Yes, please," she said, her head bowed to avoid eye contact. "Look at me when you dare to speak," I growled. When I saw her face again, I had to resist the urge to kiss her. Then I figured, oh, what the hell. Best to get her used to every extreme. She would certainly come to know them all. I led her into my study and told her to stand by the bookshelf that covered one wall. In the center was an empty section that stretched up to a cabinet maybe a meter wide. I removed the large pot holding a rubber tree plant that filled the space, revealing two eyebolts screwed into the walls just above the floor. I opened the doors to the cabinet. "Stand here," I beckoned, removing the shelf, or at least half of it. She looked at me curiously. "Feet here," I said, pointing to the eyebolts. "Facing out." She stepped up to the bookshelf and spread her legs. "Hands up. That's it, over the shelf." She finally noticed the holes cut into the wood for her wrists and neck. "Don't move." I dashed downstairs to get cuffs for her ankles, mittens for her hands, a collar, the pump gag, tweezer clamps, weights, padlocks, plus a new toy. When everything was in place on her, I pushed in the other section of the shelf, locking her leather-wrapped wrists and neck firmly between the boards. Then I held up the device, a small plastic box with what looked like a glass eye in the middle. "It's a motion detector," I explained. "If it senses something moving, it triggers a switch that turns on a light, or maybe an alarm. They're usually used for outdoor locations like driveways. Gotta be careful not to make them too sensitive; otherwise, every squirrel in the neighborhood would be a menace. But for our purposes, we'll dial it down to its lowest setting so the slightest twitch will trigger it." I put it down between her cuffed ankles, and picked up the tiny vibrator equipped with two long wires trailing off it, plus a roll of electrical tape. "Nasty little fucker. Runs like a turbine on rocket fuel." I encased her shaved crotch in tape, the oversized bullet pressed firmly against her clitoris. "Every time you move, it runs for five minutes. Move while it's running, and it resets itself back to five minutes." I reached up and grabbed the edges of the cabinet's doors. "This will help you learn to only come when you have permission." I pushed them shut and connected the handles with a padlock. --SABRINA-- Oh, bummer. Another closet. This was the perfect house for playing hide-and-seek. Except Geoffrey had switched around the rules. He was hiding me, not seeking me. And now was not the time for staying immobile. My spirits were so high, all I wanted to do was jump, run, talk, laugh, whatever would allow me to express my cheerfulness. Instead, I was alone, forced to silence and stillness. Silence was easy. Stillness wasn't. For once, I wished my restraints were much tighter than they were. I had way too much slack. If only I could lean against the frame and just take a rest. But no, that would be too easy, wouldn't it, Geoffrey? Minutes passed. I wondered how long he would leave me here. Then, I remembered a song and began to hum it in my mind. "In your room. Where time stands still. Or moves at your will. Will you let the morning come soon? Or leave me lying here?" Was Depeche Mode singing about bondage? "Your favorite slave." So appropriate indeed. "Will I always be here?" The words filled my head with new levels of meaning. I let the thought of the song flow through me, closing my eyes to feel its powerful bass line stir deeper in me. Suddenly, the vibrator jumped to life. Damn it, I must have moved my legs. Remembering his instructions, I ordered my hips to ignore the friction. Inside my body, various hidden muscles clenched, in an effort to alleviate the tension without any external movement. It worked. After what seemed like half an hour, but was probably only five minutes, the vibrations stopped. I hadn't come. Round one, score 1-0. Careful not to move again, I slowed down my breathing, made painful and difficult by the gag. I wouldn't be able to pull that stunt too many times. Don't move, I admonished myself. Don't sing. Don't even think. Just stand still and wait. And wait, and wait, and wait. The game wasn't fun anymore. I wanted to get out. I needed to stretch. Or bend over. Any movement would do. To add to my plight, I was hungry, too. And I could definitely use the bathroom. I must have moved again. This time, however, the vibrations didn't stop after five minutes. They went on. I stopped caring about standing still. I let go and came almost instantly. My clit was on fire and hurt like hell. And I came again. In a flash of sanity, I summoned all my energy to put my body to a rest. Wincing under the effort, I was able to control myself long enough to stop the little dynamo. Again, I tried to calm down, my lungs aching from a terrible lack of air, but the two minutes of grace I gained was too short. One of my legs failed me. The vibrator didn't. --GEOFFREY-- I could stare at Sabrina's body all day, especially when it was quivering in the throes of yet another forbidden orgasm. I particularly liked the way the weights bounced under her breasts as she struggled to bring her limbs to a complete standstill. It was so much easier to deal with submissive men; lock their cocks in a cage, and they'd never come again unless their mistress or master felt merciful. Or make them come twice, and they wouldn't get hard again for hours. Women's climaxes were like ocean waves rather than bombs, and much more difficult to control, not to mention train. But what fun we would have trying. I waited until the vibrator had run for 15 minutes straight before shutting down the motion detector, removing the tape and the clamps, and uncuffing her ankles. When I finally opened the cabinet holding her head, I wasn't surprised her eyes were barely open. I pulled out the piece of the shelf holding her hands and neck, and led her out of the bookshelf. After I deflated and removed the bladder from her mouth, I pointed to an iron X on the floor in front of the couch, the cuffs attached to the four ends open and ready for her wrists and thighs. "On your hands and knees," I commanded. When she hesitated, I found myself getting angry, but then she gave me a desperate look and waved a mittened hand over her groin. I nodded my head, chuckling out loud when she practically sprinted to the bathroom. I made sure I had everything else ready: a large plug for her ass, the flogger, a spreader bar for her ankles, and the penis gag trainer for later. She would spend the rest of the evening as my coffee table, providing support for my plate, glass and silverware while eating her own supper from a bowl on the floor. But first, she would be punished for her transgressions, which had mounted steadily all day: speaking out of turn, refusing to follow instructions, and especially all those forbidden orgasms. I wondered if she disobeyed so she would taste more of the whip? Perhaps she herself didn't really know. But I did know that my feelings for her were growing exponentially, placing me in the classic conundrum of a top; does one show affection to a partner by increasing her suffering? Cruel to be kind, thank you, Nick Lowe by way of William S. Or does one occasionally break down the artifice of the power exchange relationship and act "normal"? I wasn't sure if I would ever figure that one out. I had seen many similar relationships founder and sink on these exact shoals. But again, what fun we would have trying. I noticed that more than ten minutes had passed since she ran off to the bathroom. "Sabrina?" I called out anxiously, putting down the flogger and hastening down the hall. "Are you okay?" Fortunately, the door to the bathroom was unlocked. And there sat Sabrina on the toilet, her head pressed against the towel hanging from a rack, fast asleep. I felt a wave of emotion wash over my body. Poor thing, I thought as I gently scooped her off the seat into my arms. Time for you to join the other angels in the land of nod. I carried her upstairs to my bedroom, pulled back the covers, and lay her on the sheet. I took off her collar, but left the mittens in place. A quick trip to the studio produced a long leather leash, which I used to tie her wrists loosely over her head to a bedpost. "Goodnight, Sabrina," I said softly as I pulled the comforter over her elongated form. "I'll join you in a little while." After supper, I sat down to respond to some long-neglected correspondence. Some kind of bondage convention wanted me to lead a half-day workshop for budding pornographers, for which they offered to cover all my expenses in addition to a healthy honorarium. I thought for a moment about how Sabrina would look standing next to me at the podium, arms bindered, waist corseted, legs encased in thigh- high leather, a bit gag in her mouth, and a leash trailing down from a posture collar to a cuff around my wrist. Definitely worth a trip to Washington, D.C. We might even stay for all three days of the conference. Bills, bills, catalogs, junk--hmm, an invitation to Brenda's mid- summer bash. I crumpled up the embossed paper and threw it into the fireplace without a second look. Finally, I logged onto the Internet to check the progress of Sabrina's auction. As expected, my ridiculous offers had scared off other bidders. Pity it was my grand finale in this particular enterprise. I could hardly wait for the close of business in Hong Kong early tomorrow. As I prepared to turn in, I checked the weather report. Late-night clouds giving way to sunshine, the virtual meteorologist reported. Excellent. I planned on a double session with Sabrina in the ring to make up for today's rainout. But first, I wanted to let her sleep as long as she needed. Of course, I might interrupt her dreams occasionally as my desires demanded. But I was quite confident she wouldn't mind the distraction in the slightest. Starting now, I smiled, peeling off my shirt as I walked up the stairs. (To be continued in Association - Day 13) *** Copyright (C) 2002, 2003 by Adrian Hunter and Chelsea Shepard.
